"Since A Lang wants to, of course, I can’t shout like this. It’s really kind, just like when we were chatting with salt boats in our hometown in Jiangnan, it seemed that nothing had changed."
"Ha ha ha ha that’s right. That’s what I remember, but it’s only been three or four years. Nearly four years ago, we also shipped smuggled salt to the southeast coast to sell it.
I risked my life to earn money, and I have to face his private salt dealers’ attacks at any time, as well as those local officers and men’s attacks at any time. "
Su Yonglin smiled and walked beside Tian Jue and patted him on the shoulder.
"By the way, how long have you been with me until today?"
"It has been seventeen years since I was seven years old and was rescued by the A Lang family."
"Yes, you are one year older than me."
Su Yonglin nodded and said slowly, "We lost many old brothers and friends along the way. They didn’t live to see this day like us. I think it’s a pity that I really want them to see this day with us, but it will never be possible."
"They will be very happy if they know that the name of A Lang commemorates them."
Tian Jue looked at Su Yonglin and sipped his mouth and smiled. "A Lang didn’t forget them. They will be very happy."
"How could I forget them? How dare I forget them? Isn’t forgetting them tantamount to betraying our long-cherished ideals? How can I do such a thing? "
Su Yonglin bypassed Tian Jue and walked to the door of the palace and said, "Do you know what I said? I don’t want to be an emperor. They didn’t object to me, but silently accepted me for the enthronement ceremony?"
Tian Jue came to Su Yonglin and thought about it with a frown.
"As the saying goes, if you can’t bear it, you will make great plans. Maybe they think it’s even small enough to endure the problem, but they have other big plans, which are more important."
"By the way, they have great ideas. What do you mean they can’t give up great ideas?"
Su Yonglin looked at Tian Jue.
Tian Jue thought carefully for a while.
"Perhaps it is the situation that the emperor scholar-officials shared the sky like the Song State? They hope to achieve their goal through patience for a while and gradually controlling important positions in the whole country through imperial examinations. "
"It’s not just that, is it?"
Su Yonglin said, "They may have a strong confidence that they are bound to win and all my attempts will fail. They believe that they can win the final victory and don’t mind letting me take the wind."
Tian Jue stare big eyes.
"A Lang, you mean … those people know what we’re trying to do?"
"How is that possible? What can they know about our attempt? Even if they know, they can’t figure out why we want to do this. They will think about it for so long. "
Su Yonglin shook his head and said, "They may regard me as Liu Bang, treat me as that arrogant person, and even take off the Confucian scholar’s hat to pee, which humiliated the Confucian scholar’s lout. They may think that I am overconfident and don’t care about anything."
"They regard A Lang as Liu Bang?"
Tian Jue felt ridiculous and shook his head. "Liu Bang is the first person in Buyi Day, but how can he compare with A Lang? What A Lang wants to do is a great event of change for generations to come. What Liu Bang has done is just to enter a cycle. "
"Liu Bang is not a real day. In a sense, Liu Bang is also Ren Huang. If he is a real day, it will not be Dong Zhongshu’s turn to engage in the induction of heaven and man."
Su Yonglin said with a smile, "But now my group of Confucian scholars have in their eyes the second fool Liu Bang for overthrowing the tyranny of Xu Jin Guo very smoothly. I can imagine that they have now imagined that I have to adopt their plan to save the situation because I have hit a wall everywhere."
Tian Jue is very dissatisfied with this.
"A bunch of fat bastards naturally, sooner or later, we will clean them up from beginning to end!"
"That’s natural, but before that, we have to make sure we don’t have any problems."
Su Yonglin looked at Tian Jue and asked, "Jue, we have established a new country and become senior officials, but it’s not the same as before. Are there many people you don’t know visiting you in your house these days?"
"yes"
"Is there a gift? Did you ask someone to put in a good word? "
Tian Jue nodded.
"Yes, but I don’t accept anything, I don’t say anything nice, I just close the door and refuse to see you."
"You are right. There are some bottom lines that can’t be broken, even if they are hypocritical. No matter who you are, no matter who you are asked to take this position, you must not be soft-hearted. You must be public and private."
Su Yonglin turned around and took Tian Jue’s hand. "And this is too difficult."
Tian Jue looked down in astonishment at Su Yonglin holding his hand and looked up at Su Yonglin’s worried face.
"A Lang, are you worried that I can’t help forgetting my heart?"
"I’m worried that I’m not only worried about you, but also about others and everyone. I’m worried that you can’t come with me and become my enemy halfway."
Su Yonglin added a hand of strength. "It’s easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it’s difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. Once something is done, once the limit is broken, it will become deeper and deeper. What should I do then?"
Chapter 67 Zhao can’t get you into trouble
Facing Su Yonglin’s inquiry, Tian Jue was silent for a while.
Then he gave his own answer.
"A Lang, I can assure you that I will never change myself. If I want A Lang to be like this all the time, I will always be like this until the end. I will never be an enemy of A Lang!"
"Some things are beyond your control."
Su Yonglin shook his head and said, "But I choose to trust you now. I choose to trust you. Can you always get my trust in the future? I’m not sure I hope this will never change."
Tian Jue nodded his head.
"I will try my best to get a letter from A Lang all the time, but … A Lang has a question I don’t know if I should ask."
"You ask"
"A Lang has always asked us not to change us … and how can we confirm that A Lang will change? A Lang is going to be an emperor, and the emperor will decide whether to live or die! This is the emperor! A Lang, can you guarantee that you will not change? "
Tian Jue didn’t know where he got the courage to put himself in doubt for a long time in his heart and asked Su Yonglin a question.
Su Yonglin certainly didn’t expect Tian Jue to ask him like this.
But he still felt extra joy.
Because at last, someone dared to question him and ask others to make some guarantees, instead of simply accepting others’ guarantees, just like he was a perfect ruler after all.
This is certainly not normal.
No one in the imperial court dared to ask the so-called question, but he hoped that someone could ask this question at the revival meeting. The biggest uncertainty was not others but Su Yonglin himself.
This is the fact that the facts are quite grim.
The country, the recovery army and the revival meeting were all created by Su Yonglin, who was full of blood and ideals, and he had absolute control and disposal over them.
He can take them to prosperity with one thought, and at the same time, he can also take them to extinction and the abyss with one thought.
Su Yonglin’s significance to them is so great that Tian Jue’s law is neglected. It can be said that Su Yonglin has absolute power to stop people from changing if he does not change himself, but it is meaningless if Su Yonglin changes everyone and does not change.
The pioneer, the leader and the emperor depend on Su Yonglin rather than others.
Will Su Yonglin change?
Tian Jue doubts and worries, and there is a little bit of fear.
Su Yonglin is laughing.
"Yes, yes, if I can’t stick to it, if one day I think it’s good to be emperor and I don’t want to continue to change the world, then everything will go up in smoke. It’s really true that you can ask me that you really mean our cause."
"Where?"
So I will also promise you that I will not change myself, and I will, as always, fight resolutely against all those who hinder us until I win.
Su Yonglin made his promise.
Tian Jue looked at Su Yonglin and chose the letter at this moment.
A Lang, I believe you, too.
Tian Jue believed Su Yonglin as Su Yonglin believed him.
