"Big Brother, you are the ruler of a nation and have a country to run. To say it isn't hard work would be impossible."
Zhengde sighed and said, "Who says otherwise? Right now, my head is full of affairs of state. I get very little sleep at night, and I don't have a single moment of leisure."
"Big Brother, you don't have to handle everything yourself. You need to delegate. As the monarch, you only need to grasp the big picture—take direct charge of personnel, the military, and state finances—and leave the rest to the ministers. Only then can you relax; otherwise, you'll be drowned in trivial matters."
