Qiming 1158

Chapter 1396 He wants to be the most romantic person in the world
After Tian Guizi said this, Su Yonglin remembered his only relative, Zhao Xirui's family.

Zhao Zuoliang is still the highest nominal head of the Ming government, and the minister of political affairs in the imperial court, but his three sons have not received any special treatment.

A young man is still reading.

A man who had a criminal record before the founding of the Ming Dynasty was stared at by Zhao Zuoliang and studied hard, but he failed the imperial examinations twice in a row. Quasi tossing.

The second son is smart and talented. He passed the second imperial examination in Hongwu's five-year history and entered the Ministry of Justice as an official. Now he is the head of the judicial office in a county in Hexi Province.

Su Yonglin's own eldest son, the second son, is still young and is studying, so he has nothing to say.

The three sons of the only relative, the Zhao family, are nothing special. Compared with other families, there is nothing detached. There is really nothing to criticize.

It would be better to say that Su Yonglin was deliberately suppressing the Zhao family, not allowing them to be detached from anyone, and trying his best to maintain the fairness of talent selection and promotion.

And this kind of self-starting effort is being seriously opposed by many people.

Opponents even formed an alliance in a sense under his nose, trying to sing against him, and even have the idea of ​​dominating the Ming Kingdom.

They believe that Su Yonglin's efforts to maintain fairness are out of date and not in their interests. They hope to obtain higher status and treatment through their qualifications, as well as a smoother path to power.

To this end, they formed an alliance, held a group to keep warm, tried their best to take advantage of the rules and regulations stipulated by Su Yonglin, and tried their best to cover up. Until they were discovered, they did not think they had done anything wrong.

This made Su Yonglin feel angry, but also a little disappointed.

"Qiao Feng has indeed deteriorated, but some of the things he said are not completely unreasonable. I seem to be using a more saintly standard to demand officials, and I have a lot of expectations for them, and these requirements seem to be true. Pretty harsh, isn't it?"

Tian Guizi shook his head.

"Since you have decided to be an official in Daming, you must be prepared for this. If you are not so conscious, you should simply not be an official from the beginning. Our officials in Daming are destined to be different."

"That's right."

Su Yonglin smiled wryly and shook his head: "I have imagined countless times how I would treat criminals, but when they really stood in front of me, I couldn't help but feel lost, I thought I would just do it myself. It can play a leading role, but in fact... I still underestimate human desire."

Tian Guizi objected.

"Your leading role is indeed very powerful. Under your leading role, I believe that the integrity and efficiency of Daming officials are unique, and the trust of Daming people in Daming officials must also be unique."

"But if this situation continues to develop, how many people will become like Qiao Feng?"

Su Yonglin said with a wry smile: "Now, they will use the Jiangnan elders not to receive qualified treatment as an excuse to unite a large group of people for selfishness, and then what reasons and excuses will they use to form a party for selfishness?
I don't want to imagine, and I don't dare to imagine it, but now I also know very well that for them, the ideal does not mean that much, or they think that the ideal has been realized and can start enjoying, right? "

Tian Guizi was speechless.

"Seeing such a strange state of affairs in officialdom, it's no wonder that he would shout out some slogans to save people's desires."

Su Yonglin murmured in a low voice: "Perhaps it is precisely because I have witnessed so many ugly acts that this slogan was born. If this slogan can be shouted, it may be an ideal in itself, but this ideal is used. going in the wrong direction."

"Preserve the principles of heaven and destroy human desires?"

Tian Guizi wondered: "Who said such remarks? It's really hard to imagine."

"It's not important, what's important is... Guizi, do we feel the same way about the selection and appointment of officials in the Ming Kingdom?"

Su Yonglin looked at Tian Guizi with a serious expression.

Tian Guizi pursed his lips and did not tell a lie.

"Yes."

"Hahahaha, in fact, I think officials should be what we stipulated. Since they have power, they must take more responsibilities, because his power will affect many, many people. To hold such power, it is natural to pay for it. of."

Su Yonglin smiled bitterly and said, "But maybe the bureaucrats don't understand this truth correctly, they feel that the process of gaining power is too difficult, so after gaining power, they want to enjoy happiness, not to give, but to take back.

Guizi, I found that looking at this matter from your point of view and mine is different from their point of view. What we see is giving, and what they see is taking. Is this because of the difference in status? ? "

"There must be a certain connection, but it must be said all, but not all."

Tian Guizi shook his head: "Maybe after gaining power, some of their ideas have gradually changed."

"For example, if you don't let me do anything else, don't you even allow me to be promoted?"

Su Yonglin laughed and joked, Tian Guizi laughed after hearing this, and then shook his head.

"Real Renaissance members are not like this. Being an official for the sake of an ideal and learning an ideal for the sake of being an official are two completely different things. These two types of people coexist in the Renaissance Club and have been like this from the very beginning. "

At the beginning?

Tian Guizi's words made Su Yonglin feel a little relieved.

Yes, in the beginning, they had no choice at first, and they had no choice, whether their choice was to sincerely accept the ideal, or to accept the ideal reluctantly, it was the same.

Everyone has no choice, there is only one way to go, then there is only one way to go to the dark, regardless of life or death, spell a dawn, even if you die, it is better than simply starving to death.

But now it's different.

There are so many choices now.

The right to choose is still in your own hands. As long as you are brave, what can't you do?

As a result, the choices of the two kinds of people are obviously different, and they gradually lead to two paths, two paths that are separated from each other and cannot be brought together.

But sadly, the former is destined to be less than the latter.

And if Su Yonglin wants to ensure that Daming continues to move forward and maintain a positive cycle, he needs to meet two conditions.

The first is to find ways to increase the number of people in the former category.

The second is to find ways to constantly defeat the second group of people.

Neither of these two conditions is easy, and the difficulty is quite high, far more difficult than being an emperor. To achieve these two conditions, the difficulty level that needs to be overcome is enough to make Su Yonglin an emperor for five or six lifetimes.

The possibilities are infinitely close to zero.

But the clever thing is that Su someone just likes to say no to the impossible.

impossible?
No.

Everything is possible.

Looking up at the bright moonlight, Su Yonglin's mouth twitched slightly.

"Guzi, do you believe it? My life in this life doesn't actually belong to me, it's because I hit the fortune, and the life that shouldn't have been allowed to continue has continued, so I can live until now, I can Stand here and build the Ming Kingdom."

Tian Guizi was a little puzzled by this.

"What do you mean?"

"Means nothing."

Su Yonglin smiled and looked at Tian Guizi: "I just want to say, since my life in this life does not belong to me originally, then I want to try the wish I didn't achieve in my last life, I want to try the feeling of living for an ideal all my life. ."

The feeling of living for an ideal all your life?
Tian Guizi was stunned for a moment, and gradually understood what Su Yonglin meant.

"That should be good, right? It must be good to live for the ideal all your life."

"No, it should be miserable, because I will face betrayal again and again, and I have to wipe away my tears again and again and continue to move forward. The ideal road must be full of blood and tears, which is the worst in the world. The road will be even more difficult, so hard that it is unbelievable, and in the end, it may not be successful."

Tian Guizi thought about what happened this time.

"If that's the case, does the chairman still want to go?"

"Of course, living for ideals should be the highest level a person can achieve in his life. I can never think of a more meaningful way to live than this."

In front of Tian Guizi, Su Yonglin showed a happy smile that he had never seen before.

"Is there anything more romantic than living a lifetime like this?"

"…………"

Tian Guizi didn't know if there was any more romantic way to live than living for ideals.

But he felt that Su Yonglin, who had such an understanding, must be a very romantic person at the bottom of his heart.

Only a person who is very romantic at heart can laugh so happily in front of such a heavy reality.

On this night, Su Yonglin made a decision.

From now on, he will be the most romantic person in the world.

He will lead the country through an unprecedented heroic and romantic revolution.
