Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Story of the Chaebol

After Sun Tong's explanation, Sun Xiaoting no longer held on to the matter.

But she still has something to say about Sun Tong's plan to go out and play with Karl and the others.

"Brother, even though you have abdicated, it doesn't mean you don't need to care about the country's affairs. Isn't it not good for you to do nothing every day?"

"No, I've already retired, why should I still work? Don't you know why I abdicated? If I abdicate and still have to do the same job as before, then wouldn't my abdication be in vain?"

Sun Tong looked at Sun Xiaoting unhappily. The older this girl got, the uglier she became. Now Sun Xiaoting was not young anymore. Sun Tong even suspected that the reason why this girl came to see him every day was because she had reached menopause early.

"Then you can't just leave everything to Jingwen."

"He is the emperor, if he doesn't take care of these things, who will?"

"Anyway, I just think that what you are doing is wrong. You keep asking Jingwen to expand the royal family, but he is so busy that he doesn't even have enough time to sleep, so how can he have time to expand the royal family?"

"That's his own problem. Which emperor would want to take care of everything like him? When I was emperor, I didn't care about anything, but the country never had any chaos, right?"

Sun Tong said that he didn't care about anything, but in fact, what he did at that time was basically to focus on the big things and let the small things go. He would basically take care of the big things himself, and as for the small things, he would leave them to the cabinet to handle.

Nowadays, Nanhua’s cabinet members have been replaced several times. Since all of them have been brainwashed by Sun Tong using his personal space, Sun Tong is still at ease with these people.

But he was relieved. Sun Jingwen would not dare to take it lightly. After all, he didn't know whether these people were absolutely loyal to their Sun family.

In addition, as the second-generation monarch, he does not have absolute authority in the country like his father, so since he became emperor, he has been dealing with government affairs day and night. Fortunately, he has several uncles and younger brothers and sisters to help him, otherwise his life might be even more difficult.

"Can he be like you?"

"What's the difference? I have already laid a good foundation for him. In fact, he can trust the people left to him. In addition, the royal family controls the military power. Why should he be unconfident?"

"Since you know the problem, can't you just have a good chat with Jingwen?"

"He is the emperor now, and he needs to figure out these things by himself. If he needs my help in everything, what if I am no longer here? Can he stop being the emperor?"

In fact, Sun Tongyi had already discovered the problem that Sun Jingwen was facing now. The reason why he had not taken any action was that he wanted to wait for Sun Jingwen to discover the problem himself.

Sun Tong is actually quite satisfied with his eldest son. He is different from the second and third brothers in the family. Although those two brothers are also very good, they are both relatively weak in certain subjects.

The only thing that bothers Sun Tong is that Sun Jingwen tends to get stuck in a rut, and he lacks experience in politics and doesn't consider issues comprehensively enough. That's why Sun Tong wants to test him with the predicament he is facing now.

Two years have passed now. Although Sun Jingwen has made many adjustments to the cabinet during these two years and he himself has indeed been making changes, the core problem has never been solved.
