Shui Qingzhang was holding a pipe in his mouth, lying on the rocking chair with his eyes slightly closed, looking careless.

For those who don’t understand, they think he is in selective hibernation and didn’t listen at all.

Li Yuanlang knew his former father-in-law well and knew his character well, so he did not stop and continued to talk about it.

After he finished speaking, Shui Qingzhang opened his eyes, took the pipe and put it in his mouth, saying with deep feeling: "Wang Zhanhong called you to Bizhi Province and gave you guidance in Sheng Liangxing's tone. It's really great."

Smart move."

"I can tell you clearly that something is definitely going to happen in Minzhong Province, and the flashpoint is in Ruozhou."

"Don't look at me growing flowers and grass at home all day long. After all, I have worked in the system and know that there are many unknown aspects."

"For thousands of years, fierce internal struggles have never stopped. Even if there are wise kings through the ages, there will still be cruel competition for imperial power, because power is too tempting."

"Think about it, how glorious and joyful it is for a person who reaches the highest position to face the worship of everyone below and enjoy the supreme privilege."

"Every word is a word, a word is a thousand words. Your idea is a decision, and how many people will be mobilized to comply with it. If you sneeze, the whole country will catch a cold."

"This kind of glory is difficult to feel without being in it."

"Otherwise, after your father-in-law retired for a few years, his prestige was so high that even Yu Jingfeng could not match him and could not match him."

"This kind of mind, throughout history, he is second to none."

"Yuen Long, I understand that you hate evil as much as you hate evil, you are upright, and you have a breeze on your sleeves. In today's environment, it is very rare for you to have such a high spiritual realm."

"But you also have a paranoid side in your character. You don't make mistakes or compromise. You just want to get straight and don't want to ask for help. To put it bluntly, you are too upright."

"Upright officials rarely go far. I tell you what I have to say, and whether you want to hear it or not, I will tell you. Without your father-in-law's relationship, your position is likely to stay at the deputy department level, and the main department level is yours.

The ceiling is up.”

"Because of your father-in-law's prestige and influence, especially his resolute transfer of power, he has great appeal both inside and outside the party, and among new and old comrades."

"Comrade Jinfeng is a good leader, why do I say this? You must also know that your father-in-law will not say anything bad about him, not a word, never."

"Even the people closest to him, including your wife, will not say a word. He always practices this. This is his bottom line and his basic principle."

"History is written by future generations, and it has always been the latter who evaluate their predecessors. It has never happened that the predecessors evaluated their descendants. This is a rule. You have to remember that the rules are not made by one person, but are learned from years of experience.

.”

"Going back to the topic of Ruozhou, it's still the old saying, you should do what you want, don't interfere in things that are not your business, and listen to other people's advice and advice."

"Before Wang Minghong resigned, he strongly recommended Feng Tao. There must have been some resistance. Fortunately, Feng Tao has entered the center of power."

"Your relationship with Wang Minghong, plus the fact that Comrade Linsong recommended Wang Minghong, all of which will definitely put the Feng family label on your forehead."

"The officialdom is like this. Taking sides is a must. Those who sit on the fence or take the middle road will never go far and will soon fall behind and become an outcast."

"So, Sheng Liangxing's attitude represents Feng Tao's thoughts. Since people take the initiative to extend an olive branch, if you don't accept it, you are ignorant. You only have one chance. If you miss it, you miss it. You will not come back a second time."

"What's more, if you take the right path and follow the right people, you will have higher development prospects and a greater future. By then, it will not be you who act based on other people's faces, but others who will observe whether you are happy or unhappy."

"At this stage, rest assured at the Minzhong Provincial People's Congress and wait and see how the situation changes. Whether Ruozhou is good or bad has nothing to do with you. Keep your head down and do things with your tail between your legs. This is your only option."

Shui Qingzhang's words are exactly the same as those of Wang Zhanhong and Sheng Liangxing.

These simple words made Li Yuanlang confused, and he finally cleared the dark clouds and saw the bright moon.

My whole body felt relaxed instantly and my breathing became much clearer.

In the evening, I drank two taels of white wine with Shui Qingzhang and had a hearty dinner.

Li Yuanlang bid farewell to Shui Qingzhang and his two sons and returned to his father-in-law's home.

It was getting late at night, so he tiptoed to his wife's side. Li Yuanlang lowered his body and kissed her forehead gently.

Bai Qing, who was sleeping, suddenly opened her eyes, instinctively turned on the bedside lamp, looked at Li Yuanlang blankly, and asked in surprise: "When did you come back?"

"It's been a while." Li Yuanlang sat beside Bai Qing's bed, reached out and stroked her hair, looking at her affectionately.

"Have you been drinking?"

"Well, I drank a little with Shui Qingzhang."

Bai Qing sat up and said softly: "I thought you were going to stay in Bizhi Province for a few more days."

"I've said what I need to say, and I've met the people I need to see. Hello, my guest. Secretary Wang is busy with his work, so it's not appropriate to disturb him too much."

Bai Qing asked very sensitively: "Who did you mention just now? Isn't it Wang Zhanhong?"

"Sheng Liangxing, Feng Tao's secretary, I met him in Qianjiang City. We talked a lot, it was very in-depth, and it completely untied my knot."

"Honey, Ruozhou has become a thing of the past. I shouldn't be stuck in the vicious circle. Besides, I still have a new job and can do what I should do."

Hearing what Li Yuanlang said, Bai Qing breathed a sigh of relief, "Just think about it. I understand your character. In fact, your previous hesitation and entanglement were caused by your unwillingness."

"You emphasize perfection and a beginning and an end. The Sansheng Cult is the only time since you entered politics that it has started but ended. Moreover, you have already discovered that the Sansheng Cult is very harmful. In line with your sincerity for the country and the people, you do not want to see anything that harms the country and the people.

things happen, take preventive measures before they happen.”

My wife’s words hit the nail on the head and really hit the point.

Li Yuanlang became even more convinced of her keen vision.

Excitedly, he grabbed Bai Qing's hands and put them against his face. Li Yuanlang felt the warmth and love.

Suddenly, the couple hadn't been together for a long time.

Li Yuanlang recovered healthily and was able to lead a normal life.

Bai Qing understood, pushed Li Yuanlang away, and ordered: "Go and take a shower quickly, your whole body smells of alcohol and it stinks like hell."

"Okay." Li Yuanlang took off his clothes three times, got into the bathroom and took a hot bath to wash away his fatigue and feel relaxed.

But Bai Qing raised her cell phone and said, "Someone is calling you."

It's so late, who could it be?

Li Yuanlang took it over and saw that it was Huang Zhongli's number.

He quickly called back, and just as he said "Hey", Huang Zhongli said anxiously: "Secretary Li, both people in the building are dead."

"Oh?" Li Yuanlang frowned and hurriedly asked the reason.

At around eight o'clock tonight, a white BMW driven by two people in the building had a car accident at an intersection on the outskirts of Ruozhou City.

Surveillance footage showed that the BMW was running at full speed.

It hit a street lamp pole on the side of the road and burst into flames instantly.

The two people in the car had no time to escape, and were quickly surrounded by raging fire and destroyed in a sea of ​​​​inferno.

By the time the fire department put out the fire, both buildings had been burned beyond recognition, leaving only a skeleton.

"What is the conclusion of the police investigation?" Li Yuanlang asked.

"It has been initially determined that it was a traffic accident, but further investigation is needed before the final result can be given."

"Traffic accident?" Li Yuanlang's first impression was that it was not that simple.

He wanted to continue asking, but he saw Bai Qing making a "shh" gesture.

Then he stopped abruptly and sighed: "After all, Lou Zhongshuang worked as my secretary for three months. I express my deepest condolences for his sudden accident. At the funeral, I will send a wreath in my own name."

"I understand." From Li Yuanlang's words, Huang Zhongli felt his helplessness and difficulties.

"Secretary Li, I will handle this matter. You have just gone to the Provincial People's Congress, and the provincial congress will be held in a few days, so you are probably very busy."

"Zhongli..." Li Yuanlang felt sour in his heart and said with deep thanks, "Thank you for your hard work. Goodbye."

At his home in Chuzhong, Li Yuanlang originally planned to stay a few more days and return to Minchuan two days before the conference.

Unexpectedly, just one day later, I received a call from Dong Daisheng, deputy director of the Standing Committee, "Deputy Secretary Li, please come to the Provincial People's Congress as soon as possible. You have an urgent mission."

Li Yuanlang was very surprised. What tasks the National People's Congress could have was very urgent.

Dong Daisheng did not inform him on the phone, but just urged him to go back.
