According to Chinese philosophy, saints are not people who do not care about the affairs of the world, but also internal saints and outer kings. Inner saints are said in terms of the achievements of their self-cultivation, while outer kings are said in terms of their functions in society. However, saints do not necessarily have the opportunity to become leaders of practical politics. In terms of practical politics, he probably doesn't have a chance. The so-called inner saints and outer kings only means that a man with high spiritual achievements can be king according to reason and is the most suitable king. as for whether he has a chance to be king or not, that is another matter and has nothing to do with it.
Chinese philosophy discusses the inner saints and outer kings, paying more attention to the inner saints is not in line with the meaning of the text.
