Chapter 222: The Perfect Leader
The strain that Su Mu and the others had already drawn up was almost an unsolvable paradox.
Whatever choice Wyatt will make, the Speaker of the Federal Assembly will end up with the same outcome.
The only difference is only how Su Mu and the others refused.
However, after hearing Su Tong's so-called "supplement", Wyatt did not show the slightest strangeness, but as if he had expected the reaction of Su Mu and the others, he still drank the tea in the cup lightly.
Then he was completely silent, once again threw out a new topic, and instantly took the right to speak back to his own hands again.
Even the first sentence he said again immediately made Su Mudu suffocate slightly:
"So, Su Mu, your desire for power, how big is it?"
There is no obscurity in the previous metaphor of tea, and he ignores Su Tong, who is talking about him left and right, and the question of Speaker Wyatt is so straightforward and straightforward.
It was so clean, like the clear tea swirling in a teacup, so that Su Mu had no room to avoid it at all.
And at this moment, Su Mu didn't understand the purpose of Wyatt's move.
However, now that Su Mu and Su Tong's strategy has been decided, it is obviously impossible for them to destroy the city wall halfway at this moment, and now they can only pretend to be calm and say:
"It's not so much the desire for power as the yearning for the expectations in my heart, and only when I get to a high enough position can I influence the future I want. ”
Su Mu's answer is undoubtedly a frank confession of his pursuit of power.
Even according to Su Mu's expectations at the beginning, it seems that Wyatt, the speaker of the Federal Assembly after hearing this, should have given up his entanglement with Su Tong and turned to suppress Su Mu's greed for power.
But what is even more bizarre is that after hearing the words, Wyatt, not only did he not show the slightest dissatisfaction, but more like he had been waiting for Su Mu to take the initiative to say this, and his eyes were full of determination to see through everything.
So much so that the second sentence he said next directly made Su Tong, who had been trapped in the whirlpool of power since he was a child, feel equally shocked and frightened.
Because the next sentence of Speaker Wyatt of the Federal Assembly was to Su Tong:
"Your Highness, if we intend to train your fiancé as the future President of the Federal Assembly, I wonder if you, as the imperial family, will be able to accept our hope!"
......
The few sentences in Wyatt's mouth not only completely broke the original arrangement of Su Mu and the others, but even led to an even more astonishing conclusion.
Su Mu even thought a little confusedly, was the Speaker of the Federal Assembly talking about a joke.
But it is obvious that in this secret meeting room behind Yunbin Heavenly Palace, even though it will be full of all kinds of deceit, there is absolutely no such straightforward joke.
Wyatt's words are the true will of the highest levels of the Federation.
The so-called attempt to intervene in the battle for the succession of the Dragon Tuo Empire is simply just a slap in the face, and Wyatt and Adrian's initial purpose has always been the hope he said at this time.
Whether it's true or not, Wyatt has actually been waiting for Su Mu to take the initiative to admit this ambition since the invitation three days ago.
Just like at this moment, Wyatt also quietly waited for an answer from Su Tong.
"Your Excellency, why do you think so highly of him?"
Fortunately, Su Tong has been in power all the year round, even in the face of the trap carefully prepared by the Speaker of the Federal Assembly, she still asked this most critical question at the most critical time.
"Ability, talent, prestige, appeal, this series of obvious things will undoubtedly not be the answer you want to hear, Your Highness. ”
In the face of Su Tong's rhetorical question, Wyatt was more sincere than he imagined.
Not only did he not casually say the above worthless things, but he also looked at Su Mu and Su Tong very seriously, and then continued in a deep voice:
"Although the Federation has always advocated enlightened politics, politics is politics after all, and no matter how enlightened the state and the form of government are, they are still subject to the personal qualities of the adjudicators. ”
Therefore, a leader's vision and preferences often determine the true direction of a kingdom. What we really need is a perfect leader who can never make mistakes. ”
......
Wyatt's words obviously made Su Mu and the others feel even more confused.
If Wyatt really judged by those previous conditions, Su Mu might really be a candidate for the Speaker of the Federation with his current fame and good strength among his peers.
But at this time, the "perfection" that Wyatt said, not to mention that Su Mu is simply impossible to achieve, I am afraid that even Wyatt himself will definitely not be able to achieve it.
Or, to put it more bluntly, it's almost impossible.
"I know, of course, that this quality called 'perfection' doesn't actually happen to any human being. But it is precisely because of this that if the Federation does have a perfect leader, then whether it is the future you envision, or the imperial quagmire that Her Royal Highness wants to escape. ”
"All of this...... It's all going to end in your hands!"
Wyatt finished saying this, and just as he drank the tea in his cup.
The translucent white porcelain teacup, which is mixed and transparent, returns to the table again with his movements, and exudes a delicate texture like congealed cream under the soft and gentle light of the Qi lamp.
"No substance in its innate state can carve such a delicate tea set. Either the material is too coarse, or the hardness is too amazing, in short, they can't be perfectly used for tea. ”
"But what is inherently impossible can still be achieved through the efforts of many people. Some people make fine clay embryos, some people create high-temperature forging furnaces, and some people even find the temperature at which they glaze. ”
Then an imperfect utensil has finally become the perfect tea set for drinking tea, and even once it has also undergone fundamental changes in tea culture. ”
Wyatt said lightly, about how the tea set can be perfected.
But through this metaphor from his mouth, everyone can now clearly understand: "The so-called perfect leader of the Federation is just a puppet under the control of everyone." ”
Since no one can achieve true perfection, Wyatt tries to gather the power of the entire upper echelons of the Federation to forcibly create an illusion of perfection.
It wasn't until this moment that Su Mu finally understood the reason why Wyatt chose himself:
A so-called "perfect" Federation leader, of course, can't be really too perfect, otherwise he is very likely to get rid of the control of everyone behind him and become the biggest dictator in the world.
Therefore, Su Mu, who has great defects, has actually become the most advantageous candidate.
A leader of the Federation who has a foreign princess as his fiancée must be a perfect person without fail, otherwise any wind and grass from behind him will make him completely lose the "hearts and minds" of the Federation.
