Chapter 326: Don't Be Stupid
He didn't want to see her being wronged and facing a little embarrassment.
But things in the world really can't seem to be so perfect and satisfying everyone.
Qin Shang lowered his eyes and drank a sip of delicious fish soup, with a dumpling on his chopsticks, but he raised his head: "Have you ever thought about abdicating in the future to make way for Xian?" ”
"Abdicate and make way for Xian?" Zixi was stunned, and turned his head to look at him in surprise, "I don't have any brothers and sisters, who will give way?" ”
"You still have a few cousins." Qin Shang said, "Although they are still young, they can also be a big responsibility if they cultivate well in the future." ”
Zixi frowned.
She had never thought about this question, let alone understood what Qin Sheng meant.
After thinking about it, she asked, "Are you suggesting that if I am not sure about this position, I should choose a suitable person to cultivate as soon as possible?" ”
"It's not." Qin Shang simply put down his chopsticks, got up and walked to the window, his elbow propped on the window, "I'm reminding you, don't be stupid." ”
Don't be stupid?
Zixi frowned.
"The palace is a place where people from the outside want to go in, and people from inside want to come out." Qin Shang chuckled casually, "The supreme land built up by wealth and glory, some people regard it as a cage. ”
Zixi didn't speak, her eyebrows narrowed slightly.
"But there's one thing you can't deny." Qin Shang's eyes fell on Zixi's face, "The person sitting on the dragon chair controls the fate of the people in the world, and also controls his own destiny. ”
Zixi was surprised, and seemed to understand what Qin Sheng meant.
"Only stupid and cowardly people will want to give up power and chase freedom."
Qin Sheng raised his lips and smiled lightly, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes showed a little arrogance: "Zixi, only those who are strong enough are qualified to talk about freedom." ”
Those who stand at the pinnacle of power are themselves free.
If you don't want to be bound by the rules, the only way is to let yourself have a strong strength that everyone in the world will not dare to resist while holding power in your hands.
Zixi was silent for a moment: "So, you are not suggesting that I abdicate, but that I am worried that I will give up my position as the king of a country for love in the future?" ”
"I have nothing to worry about." Qin Sheng smiled lightly, "Anyway, the country is not mine, and the power is not mine, I just remind you not to be stupid." ”
After speaking, he quietly glanced at the snow scene outside, turned back to his seat, and continued to eat dumplings: "Sitting in that position may feel unbearable and cold, and you are constrained everywhere, but when you really unload your responsibilities, you may not really be free." ”
Power and responsibility go hand in hand.
None of them are saints, and they don't have to say that they are for the common people in the world, but even if they are only for themselves, many things must be firmly grasped in their own hands in order to do what they want.
The world is so big that it is not the king's land.
This sentence is by no means a presumptuous statement, but a fact.
As long as a person is still alive in this world, unless he really has no desires and sees through life and death, there will always be a time when he will not be satisfied.
Zixi didn't speak again.
Although so far, she has not had the idea of abdicating, she knows in her heart that Qin Shang's words are right.
Even though it's cold at the heights.
But only the people in the highest places have the power to make decisions, have the courage to speak their minds, and have the prestige that people dare not resist.
And if you sit in that position and still can't do what you want, it must be because you are not strong enough.
What she has to do is to overcome obstacles and move forward.
