Chapter 707 On Power
"Then I will talk to the emperor about my views on these matters." Zhang Nan said.
After hearing this, Li Er also said with a slight hue and said, "Well, I also want to hear what shocking words you, the descendant of the Time Travel Family, can say."
Unexpectedly, Zhang Nan shook his head after hearing this and said, "This has nothing to do with Chen being from that sect. This is just Chen's idea. Everyone's idea is different."
"Then let me listen carefully to what you think." Li Erdao.
"Then I'll tell the truth, but you must agree to me. If there is something wrong with what I say, you can't get angry."
"You said that if I don't pursue your fault today, there will definitely be no fourth person in this room." Li Erdao.
Zhang Nan nodded after hearing this, but Zhang Nan didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart. After all, if the emperor wanted to die alone, then that person would die. If he didn't want to die alone, he would definitely not die.
"In my opinion, the emperor is unfortunate."
Seeing Li Er showing a puzzled look, Zhang Nan continued to explain: "The emperor I am talking about is not only referring to you, the emperor, but also to all those who have worked in this profession. No matter whether the people who work in this profession do well, he is unfortunate."
"Oh? This is interesting. I think Emperor Yang Guang of Sui was very happy." Li Er said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, it depends on when he dies." Zhang Nan smiled.
When Li Er heard Zhang Nan say this, he immediately stopped talking.
"The power is too huge, which is the fundamental reason for the misfortune of the emperors. The emperor is the most free person in the world because his power has no restrictions. The emperor is the most unfree person in the world, and also because his power has no boundaries." Zhang Nan said for a long time and finally expressed his thoughts.
Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Li Er nodded with consent.
"Goodly said, keep going."
"The emperor knew very well that everything he had come from his own power. In order to maintain his supreme honor, the emperor must firmly grasp power and cannot let go of it at all. The focus of interests must be the focus of power. How many elite figures in the world covet, weigh, spy, and plan for the throne day and night. In order to make the people of the world become their own slaves, the emperor himself became a slave of power. He must love his power as if he cared for his eyes, and could not relax every minute. The fear of being deprived of power has made the emperors and gods always very nervous, even with the wind and the wind and the grass and trees all the soldiers."
"Your Majesty, do you think I am the one who can force me?" Zhang Nan asked.
Li Er shook his head. Indeed, Zhang Nan, who can sit and never stand, and who can lie and never sit, will definitely not make his nerves tense like this. At least in Li Er's opinion, this is impossible.
Zhu Yuanzhang clearly expressed this excessive vigilance in his "Instructions on the Emperor Ming's Ancestors" written to his heirs. He said that when an emperor is at peace, he should always be vigilant and should not relax day and night, so that he will not be able to be peeped at. The country will not lose its limits. He should be treated as on the battlefield every day. Pay attention to the words and actions of the people around him during the day, and inspect closely at night to ensure the safety of the palace.
Even the confidant people who meet day and night should be vigilant, as it is said that there is a precaution. If you have any confidential matters to discuss with your confidants and need to shut down others, then the guards should not retreat too far. At most ten feet, no further away! Weapons and armor should not be separated from the left and right, and you should also choose several good horses, placed at the palace gate and the city gates, with saddles and chariots to prevent accidents.
This kind of life is really too tiring, and Zhang Nan definitely can't do it.
""Everything in the world is determined by the best." Those monarchs with great talent and strategy have to become workaholics. Qin Shihuang stipulated that he had to read 120 kilograms of bamboo slips every day before he could rest. And, Master, did you remember how many days you had to rest in a year? Even during the days when you went to a private club, Liu Bing brought some notes. You were also handling official duties in a private club at night." Zhang Nan shook his head and said.
Indeed, as a wise monarch, Comrade Li Er's serious attitude towards work cannot be ignored. At least in Zhang Nan's opinion, Comrade Li Er can afford the title of Emperor of the Eternal Eternal with such high-intensity work alone.
Zhu Yuanzhang said that he "daily, the stars are here and there, and they go in and out day by day, and they are worried about danger and are like walking on the ice of the abyss. If they are not sick, they dare not be lazy. If they are self-controlled, they will still be afraid of being too late."
According to historical records, within eight days of September 18th year of Hongwu, he read 1,660 memorials and handled 3,391 state affairs. On average, he read more than 200 memorials and handled more than 400 state affairs every day.
During the reign of Emperor Yongzheng, he claimed to be "first the world with diligence", not to patrol fortunes, not hunt, and to manage political affairs every day, and never stop until he was in power. After thirteen years of reign, he wrote a red copy of more than 10 million words.
Such a non-human way of working is that even companies with the most serious overtime work in later generations cannot compare with.
"Also, your life is too rigid. Every day is stipulated. Look at you, you must get up early every morning, otherwise you will miss the morning court. After taking a nap at noon, you must start working in the afternoon. After dinner, you have to continue working. You have to have no spare time every day. Look at me. After the things you have assigned to me, you will do whatever you want. Today I tease my children, go to a private club to soak in the hot springs tomorrow, and ask a few friends to have a drink in the bar in the evening. If you don't want to go out, just spend a life with your wife and children in the mansion. This kind of life is what I want."
Zhang Nan's smiling look made Li Erda feel unquestionable in his heart about the authenticity of what Zhang Nan said. After all, Li Er also envied such a life from the bottom of his heart, but because of his identity, he was destined to not be able to live such a life in his life.
"Therefore, this profession is easy, and any foolish idiot can ascend to the throne by bloodline; if it is difficult, it is really difficult to go to the sky. A wise man will have a loss if he has a thousand thoughts. For a super emperor like Qin Emperor Han Wu and the Emperor, who are extremely energetic and willful, power will overwhelm you, let alone those descendants who are far less strong than you. As the person who sets rules, have you ever thought that your descendants do not have the courage and ability to handle things like you, and how much pain these rules have brought to them?" Zhang Nan said sincerely.
After hearing Zhang Nan's words, Li Er did think seriously. At least in Li Er's heart, although his descendants are definitely not ordinary people, if they say that they are better than him in the career of the emperor, Li Er will never admit it.
