"Are you even speculating about John's health?"

"I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, Anthony Kennedy." Burke shook his head. For the rest of the day, there was silence in the room.

Ten minutes passed quickly, and a fourth person joined the room. It's John Manning. After 'going online', John Manning spoke directly

"I already know the thing."

"Anthony, I left Boston so that Burke could have no scruples."

"I'm going to die soon, and I'm worried about your current performance, can Harvard get better in your hands?" Anthony's face was a little ugly.

John Manning tightened his woollen coat and continued

"Burke and I imagined a myriad of possibilities, and we doubted most of the councillors, but we didn't expect you to be the first to jump out, Anthony, why are you doing that?" Brooklyn opened his eyes and looked at a distressed John Manning, feeling that the situation had suddenly become delicate.

If these words were not what John Manning had to say in order to take care of the big picture, then the matter would be interesting.

Last week's meeting was all about John Manning and Burke Forsman? The purpose is to 'explain the aftermath' and clean up the unstable factors?

If that's the case, that's interesting. Brooklyn, who was about to speak, closed his mouth, and he decided to take a closer look.

The three old guys sang a really nice play!

"You should listen to what he's done." Anthony pointed to Burke opposite and said with an ugly face.

"I know what he did." John Manning sighed

"Anthony, Harvard is terminally ill, and we have to dig up those tumors with great determination, only in this way can Brooklyn better take over Harvard and lead Harvard on the right path as soon as possible."

"Instead of wasting time in the struggle for power."

"It took me that long to get hold of Harvard when I took over, and I don't want my successor to be like me." He seemed to be saying this to Anthony, and it was as if he were saying it to Brooklyn.

Brooklyn didn't react. Anthony said

"And do you know that he tricked Brooklyn and is preparing to drive it away?" Seeing the expression on John Manning's face freeze for a moment, Anthony continued

"You asked Burke to clean up the cancer, I have no opinion, have I interfered in the internal affairs of Harvard since last week's meeting?"

"To make it easier for them, I even gave all the work directly to Brooklyn and this guy."

"If it weren't for him driving Brooklyn away, would I have come back?"

"It's funny that this guy thinks I'm going to compete with him for the Speaker's position. Think I'm a vile clown like him. ”

"John, you should really ask this guy what he's done!" There was a brief pause on John Manning's old countenance, and it was only a moment before it returned to normal.

"Burke won't drive Brooklyn away, he's not fit to be Speaker, he knows that, right, Burke?" Anthony smiled and said bitterly

"John, you've been lied to him. By his own admission, he was going to get out of Brooklyn. ”

"After all these years, you still haven't recognized him for who he really is, John?"

"I'm talking about getting Brooklyn out of the way, helping him stand his ground, and if he can't, he'll be expelled." Burke Forsman corrected suddenly.

Anthony, who was exposed to his face, did not feel embarrassed at all

"Let Brooklyn retreat? What's so hard to know? Let him stand firm? Whose position is firm? His? Harvard's? Or yours? ”

"Is there a difference between mine and Harvard's?" Burke asked rhetorically

"I love Harvard no less than yours, and my position is Harvard's position!"

"Isn't this still trying to make Brooklyn your puppet?" Anthony's eyes widened, and he pointed at Burke and said to John Manning

"Hear me, John, you chose to lead a black bear into a house full of honey and try to warn him not to steal honey."

"What do you think?" John Manning didn't speak, but Brooklyn was the first to speak.

"Please don't use me as an excuse, thank you."

"You are John's chosen successor!" Anthony said with some hatred

"You should take more responsibility!"

"Your vision is too narrow, which seriously affects your judgment of the development of events, and you are not firm in your position on certain things, always swaying from side to side. Part of what Anthony said is true, I'm not too optimistic about you, I think you should be trained to be a qualified successor. ”

"I think there are enough people who have the courage to take responsibility now." Brooklyn said with his hands at either side of the computer, staring at the screen

"Aren't you two fighting for responsibility?" This is irony, and it is very crude and straightforward irony.

"Mr. John Manning." Brooklyn nodded to John Manning

He may be right. You shouldn't have chosen me as your successor. ”

"Wood Ward, Mr. Anthony Kennedy, Burke Forsman, Lane Sberger...... They're actually better suited than me. ”

"I think the only thing I have over them is probably my age." After a pause, Brooklyn burst into laughter

"I think we're in a hilarious situation right now. Maybe you should look for an oriental historical drama to watch, it's exactly the same. There was a brief silence in the room.

Moments later, John Manning broke the silence.

"Anthony, now that you've been elected Speaker, you should stay in Boston and work hard. It just so happens that you are back this time, so you will perform your duties as Speaker well and do not live up to everyone's trust. Brooklyn looked at Burke Forsman's expression quietly, still unable to see the change.

"Questions?" John Manning said a lot more about Anthony Kennedy's arrangements and finally asked.

Anthony Kennedy shook his head. So John Manning turned to Burke Forsman.

"Burke, the expulsion of his old friends from his home with his hand-picked successor, and a group of old friends, was not an easy experience. To tell you the truth, Burke, you calculated accurately, and if it weren't for the future of Harvard, I would have wanted to dismantle you right now. ”

"But after I leave Harvard, it's up to you to work with Anthony to stabilize the situation and create a more comfortable inheritance environment for Brooklyn."

"That's what you owe me, Burke, it's not me asking you to work for Harvard. You have to remember that this is what you owe me! ”

"Anthony's prestige is enough to appease the people, and the job you need to do is identify the tumors and expel them."

"Not training Brooklyn!!"

"What the future of Brooklyn looks like is his own choice, and you have no right to interfere!"

"Do you understand?" Burke was silent for a moment, nodded, and asked

"But Brooklyn isn't good enough to be a qualified successor right now, so what are we going to do?"

"You should have the most basic respect for Brooklyn." John Manning said with a straight face

"I don't see where he's not qualified."

"He's too close to Lyleigh Crewe's heir." Burke Forsman pointed to Brooklyn and said without hesitation

"They even live together."

"That's what I'm most worried about, because of Ray Leonard, he's going to waver on the fundamentals and even become a second Lai Lewe."

"If we had chosen Lyley Crewe over you, John, can you imagine what Harvard would have been like under Lenley Crewe?" These words seemed to have entered John Manning's heart.

The muscles on one side of his cheek twitched slightly, staring at the screen and not saying a word for a long time.

Burke's words continued.

"You should know something about the situation in New York right now, John, honestly, who is Brooklyn really dealing with? It's almost the same as digging his own grave! ”

"His behavior reminds me of Lyleigh Crewe."

"I was really influenced by Mr. Lylie Crewe." John Manning didn't speak, but Brooklyn couldn't help it, and if he held it back, he would be unified by Burke!

"It was because of Mr. Lyley Crewe's care for me, and because of Mr. Lylee Crewe's legacy, that I was able to return to Harvard, to walk into that auditorium, to Mr. John Manning's sight."

"It's something everybody knows, Burke Forsman, what's the problem?"

"As for what you said about the current situation in New York. The federal government should not be coerced by capital, and in fact the government of any country should not be coerced by any force. This is a healthy and normal government, a government that operates for the benefit of the whole country and all its citizens. ”

"If I don't drive them away, will I keep them for Christmas?"

"Or do you think the current federal government is good, or that the current federal government is not strong enough to be held hostage by self-interest?"

"This is a little bit of my superficial political opinion, you can disagree with my opinion, you can even refute it, you can participate in it, but you should not use this as a basis to say something I don't understand."

"Mr. Lylee Crewe's contribution to the federal justice system is one that no one can discredit. I don't understand what you're talking about. ”

"Of course, you shouldn't have deceived me, weakened me, and tried to turn me against the governor of New York."

"If this is your test of me, whether you have tested me or not, but this test, Burke Forsman, do you think it's appropriate?"

"What do you want?" Burke Forsman had fully recovered, completely shaken off the initial excitement, he asked calmly

"What do you want to do?"

"What do you think the federal government is not doing well today?"

"That's a matter for politicians, I'm a judge." Brooklyn didn't let him be fooled, and said cautiously

"My responsibilities are within the justice system. The question you asked, maybe it will be answered later by the governor of New York State. ”

"You ......" Burke gestured to Brooklyn, a momentary look of astonishment on his face. This was probably the first time that Brooklyn had confirmed 100% that the real expression of emotion on Burke's face had been seen.

But soon these real expressions were put away by him.

"So what are you going to do?" He asked

"You control the judiciary, your gubernatorial allies control the executive, and your bureau chief allies try to control the legislature?" Burke's words sounded strange, and it was hard to tell if it was his speculation or whether he was making sarcastic remarks.

"You want to be the second Father of the Federation?" Burke asked.

"I don't have that going to happen." Brooklyn shook his head in the negative

"Your description is tempting, but I don't intend to do so."

"And what are you going to do?" Burke Forsman didn't give up and continued to ask

"You don't think the federal government is in the right state with what you want it to be, and you're not going to do anything but give it to your governor's allies and wait quietly for your governor's allies to make changes."

"Don't you think this explanation is too far-fetched?" Burke didn't speak fast, but every word he uttered was pressing on Brooklyn.

"Why do you have to do something?" Brooklyn asked rhetorically

"There are so many things that I'm not happy with."

"I'm not happy with the weather in New York today, I'm not happy with the [Patriots'] eyeing me, I'm not happy with the assassination of me orchestrated by Yale, I'm not happy with your attitude toward me and what you've said to me."

"I'm not satisfied with the judge's salary, I'm not satisfied with the Earth's autobiography, I'm not satisfied with the short life span of human beings, I'm not satisfied with the death of Wood and Ben!"

"There are too many things that I am not satisfied with, do I have to change them?"

"Do I have the power to change everything that I don't like?"

"Maybe you can't change the objective law, but at least you have the ability to change the dissatisfaction with the federal government." Burke said.

He was not intimidated by Brooklyn's series of strong sentences, and calmly found the loopholes in Brooklyn's words.

"Are you suspecting that he is the heir to Lyri Crewe?" Anthony Kennedy suddenly spoke up.

Burke Forsman glanced at Anthony and nodded slightly.

"Brooklyn doesn't seem to have anything to do with Lyleigh Crewe, and he doesn't even know what Lyley Crewe did."

"But doesn't he really know?" Burke Forsman turned to Brooklyn

"Do you really not know?"

"I wonder what Lyrie Crewe does?"

"I wonder why Lyrie Crewe died?"

"I wonder what Lyrie Crewe is supporting?"

"Do you really not know?"

"With Ray Leonard by your side, you should be aware of everything. You're just pretending you don't know. ”

"That's where Lyrie Crewe excels."

"On the surface, Ray Leonard, who has always followed him and knows their entire organization well, is the heir, but in fact, what he really left to Ray Leonard is only the name of the organization, an identity."

"The true spiritual core has long been quietly infused into others by him."

"Now it's clear what Ray Leonard and Brooklyn Lee are doing."

"If it were Lyleigh Crewe, who would he be more comfortable with?"
