Chapter 39 Section 6 The Taste of Power

Wei Jinzhong's first move was to change his name.He changed his name to "Wei Zhongxian", which means "Wanwu". It's a meaningful move.This means that Wei Jinzhong is fully aware of the transformation of his role: in the past, he was just a slave of the emperor, and loyalty was enough; now, he has become the ruler of the dynasty, and he is about to start governing the affairs of the empire. , You must also be "virtuous", that is, have extraordinary political talents.Therefore, he needs to perfect himself as soon as possible, "Wan Wu". This action shows that Wei Jinzhong is not a "fool" in people's minds, this person knows some circumflexes and advances and retreats very well.

Far from being a "fool", Wei Zhongxian has the same or even stronger desire and self-esteem as normal people.Since he was a child, he has been a lively and clever child. As the "younger" in the family, he is loved by his parents.After growing up, his idleness and idleness also reflected his dissatisfaction with real life and higher expectations from one side. It was his strong desire to change his state of life that drove him to leave the palace resolutely. This move showed that he was fully capable of grasping opportunities at critical moments.However, the ruthless reality after entering the palace once shattered his dream.

Before Zhu Youxiao ascended the throne, fate never showed a smiling face in front of him: he was born poor, but when he grew up he was not accepted by the society because of his bad habit of gambling. He was still not well-known, he was trampled repeatedly in the strife of the eunuchs, and his promotion was extremely slow, so he was called a "fool" who was incompetent and hopeless. Under the repeated blows of fate, he consciously put on the mask of "fool".He couldn't bear the pressure of self-esteem, so he had to choose to escape.He smiled and listened to others calling him a "fool". He had a good temper, and he would not get angry no matter how people teased him.He is careless, he is naive and silly, and he has no self-esteem.

He lives like a reptile, he is happy to be a reptile, how comfortable it is to be a reptile, he can not be tortured by self-esteem, he can be irresponsible to himself, and he can let others trample on him—since he has no ability to resist. However, self-esteem cannot be killed, it can only be temporarily anesthetized and suppressed.The greater the suppression, the greater the massed reaction force.It is always ready to move, bringing pain to Wei Jinzhong. Sleeping in the eunuch's class room, Wei Jinzhong often had this dream: he was cleaning a huge toilet, and there was a small maggot in the toilet, and he couldn't clean it no matter what.He hated and hated this maggot very much, but he just couldn't brush this disgusting thing.The more he couldn't brush it, the more anxious he became, and he woke up in a hurry.Although he doesn't know how to analyze psychologically, he can also faintly feel that the maggot actually represents himself, and deep down in his heart, he actually hates himself endlessly.

Thinking of this, two turbid tears would unknowingly climb up the corners of Wei Jinzhong's eyes in the middle of the night.In fact, self-esteem and desire have been tenaciously exerting energy under Wei Jinzhong's straightforward appearance. Although he lacks scheming, he is not without scheming: is his devotion to the prince and talented people out of pure loyalty?Is the reason why he got close to Ke Shi just by accident? Deep down in his heart, he has been vaguely looking forward to the arrival of "that day", the day when he will be proud, the day when he will be proud of his ancestors, and the day when all of you will see what kind of a guy I, Wei, is.

Now, that day has finally come.In the face of opportunities, Wei Zhongxian showed his true nature of being decisive and daring.Facing the appointment of Bingbi, the supervisor of ceremonies, he did not retreat in the slightest. Although he doesn't know a single word, he has his own way: he asks others to explain the memorial for him, and translates difficult ancient Chinese into simple vernacular. Then, he gives orders, and then asks others to translate his orders into classical Chinese, and writes them with a Chinese ink pen. On the memorial.Through such a complicated process, he wrote his personality into the political history of the empire without hesitation.

Power tastes better than all nectar.This is the best taste in the world!The life, death, honor and disgrace of all the people in the world are in their own thoughts.One sentence from him can wipe out a senior member's life's efforts, and can also make another person fly to the top in an instant.All the smartest, most capable, and richest people in the entire empire will kneel at their feet, and when they stomp their feet, the whole land will tremble. Instantly rising from the bottom of society to the commanding heights of the world, he was a little dizzy for a while.However, this does not prevent him from tasting this super pleasure.Now, his complaints about fate were swept away and replaced by mad gratitude.Looking down at the mortal beings under his feet, a great statesman's sense of responsibility arises spontaneously.He is full of ambition, and he must work hard to govern the empire so that Haiyan and Heqing can be governed so that these common people can live a happy life.He felt that he was so tall, kind, and wise at the moment, and with a big wave of his hand, he would spread warmth in all directions.This is him, the real Wei Zhongxian!
