Just now, Fang Yingwu's spirit had been in a state of high tension. He was constantly thinking and deducing. He thought more about business matters and less about private matters. He seemed to be risking his own life for the sake of justice. Therefore, he devoted himself wholeheartedly to the country.
On major matters, I haven't had time to consider my own safety.
At this moment, after being reminded by Liu Mianhua, he suddenly realized that he seemed to be in crisis. This was not a political crisis, but a personal crisis.
Tonight's confrontation with Wan'an was indeed fruitful. It directly spied on Wan'an's true movements, revealed Wan'an's secret contacts with Concubine Shao Chen, and Kang Jianzheng, and laid a foundation for future actions. But on the other hand,
, and also pushed himself into an extremely dangerous situation.
The method of confronting Wan An this time has been completely different. It is equivalent to forcing Wan An to put aside his official face and retaliate against himself in private. The first assistant Wan An is not a gentleman, and he must have such a big heart.
Fang Yingwu put himself in Wan An's shoes and thought about it, and soon came up with twenty ways to retaliate. Even if Wan An was not as smart and professional as him, he should still be able to think of ten ways?
How did a chief assistant become the chief assistant if he didn't even have this ability? What's terrible is that he is not an official now, so he has a lot less worries about revenge.
I'm afraid that the main theme of life in the future will be how to beware of Wan An until Wan An steps down. Thinking of this, Fang Yingwu suddenly felt waves of fear coming over him, and subconsciously shouted: "Old Taishan, save me!"
Liu Mianmian stroked his beard and smiled, "You have to explain the matter clearly in detail. How confident are you in dealing with Wanmei Prefecture? Then I can help you."
Fang Yingwu frowned and scratched his head. Unexpectedly, Lao Taishan still wanted to ask this question after going around in a circle. This method was indeed his style - although he didn't ask questions directly, it forced you to answer his words.
Although the Taishan earthquake was not something that had to be kept secret from Liu Mianhua, he just didn't want to make it known to everyone. If one less person knew about it, one less person would know, so he had to keep it a secret.
Moreover, Fang Yingwu wants his friend Hong Songshangshu to talk about the earthquake and win the jackpot. What if he talks too much and lets others get the first prize? With Liu Mianmian’s character and methods, it is not ruled out that he will do something that makes him happy.
, it’s about grabbing the credit...who wouldn’t want to take advantage of this?
What's more, as Liu Mianhua is in the cabinet, he must be better at timing than them, and it is easy to take away the credit. Even if Liu Mianhua does not come forward in person, he can still instruct his party members to go into battle, but they are Liu Mianhua's party members, not the party members of others.
No matter how close relatives and friends are, there are differences in interests after all, and some bottom lines must be clearly understood. Thinking about this, things should be overwhelming, and I couldn't find any other excuses, so I decided to open the skylight and speak out.
"My son-in-law came to visit tonight to remind Lao Taishan about Wan'an's affairs and to ask him to prepare in advance. The first is to be careful of Wan'an's methods and make arrangements in advance; the second is to wait to harvest the fruits of Wan'an's declining power.
That’s all. As for the rest, it’s not convenient for my son-in-law to talk about it, so there’s no need for Lao Taishan to ask. If Lao Taishan believes it, everything is easy to say, just wait; if he doesn’t believe it, then my son-in-law won’t force it.”
Liu Mianhua asked softly: "Are you sure your main purpose tonight is not to seek help from me?"
Fang Yingwu, who cherished his life, couldn't help but think of the possibility of being retaliated against...and then he came to his senses again: "Old Taishan thinks that my son-in-law is too timid!"
Liu Mianhua looked at his son-in-law lovingly. "It turns out that I thought that my virtuous son-in-law was afraid inside. So he came to me in a hurry to seek peace of mind. It is true that the people in Wanmeizhou are narrow-minded and will retaliate. Their methods are also very vicious and shameless.
.”
Fang Yingwu almost thought of many bad images again, and once again forcibly eliminated them, then gritted his teeth and said, "Can we talk about something else?"
Liu Mianmian said solemnly: "What is more important than your safety? A good son-in-law is an old man who only sees gains and losses, but ignores the safety of his relatives?"
Looking at this, if I don't reveal anything to Liu Mianhua, I won't be able to pass the test tonight. After being entangled in every possible way, Fang Yingwu replied helplessly: "I wonder if Old Taishan knows about the frequent earthquakes in the Taishan area in the past two months? News?
It hasn’t reached the capital yet.”
Liu Mianhua changed his face when he heard this. The Taishan earthquake was a major event related to the safety of the country. He quickly asked: "Since it hasn't reached the capital yet, how did you know about it?"
Fang Yingwu smiled and said nothing to this question. He couldn't answer anything. He could only pretend to let Liu Mianhua figure it out. Sure enough, Liu Mianhua immediately thought that Fang Yingwu had a close relationship with Dongchang. Could it be through Dongchang?
News obtained through channels?
"If the news is true, then I will sacrifice my life for justice and explain this matter to the emperor!" Liu Mianhua said in a sonorous and powerful voice.
Sure enough! Fang Yingwu almost cried. Why don't you pick peaches so confidently and take it for granted? He was thinking about how to get this thing back.
After pondering for a moment, Liu Mianhua spoke again: "The Taishan earthquake should be in the East Palace? It was because the East Palace was unstable that God issued a warning? This explanation is certainly reasonable, but the other side can also explain it the other way around, saying that the East Palace is unstable.
Virtue has caused God to warn you, how can you refute it?"
"This is simple, just stay the same to cope with the ever-changing situation!" Fang Yingwu said again in a cryptic manner. After saying this, he shut up and stopped talking even to death.
Liu Mianhua waited again, then looked at Fang Yingwu with a half-smile, "But I don't need to rely on this to be able to ascend to the throne of chief minister. It would be a waste of this credit to fall on me, so I'll give it to you young people."
Just people."
"Old Taishan is really a reasonable person, and my son-in-law admires him greatly!" Fang Yingwu praised quickly.
Liu Mianhua's expression suddenly dropped, and he snorted coldly: "In the past, I was afraid that you regarded me as a short-sighted vulgar person? Could it be that this time I am a person of this caliber in your mind?"
The more Liu Mianmian talked, the more excited he became, "You don't need to flatter me. Compared with petty profits, your human heart is more important. Don't you know that your human heart is the most important thing?"
?
From the beginning to the end, you have underestimated me! In other words, in your heart, you have always underestimated me, and I have been putting up with this for a long time!"
Fang Yingwu said loudly: "My son-in-law has realized his mistake! I hope Master Lao Taishan will respond to his mistake!" "It's good that you just realize your mistake!" Liu Mianhua waved his hand and forgave Fang Yingwu.
Fang Yingwu asked cautiously: "Then can we talk about the personal and family safety of my son-in-law?" Liu Mianhua asked suspiciously: "Is this why you readily admit your mistake?"
"No!" Fang Yingwu denied flatly. (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature for better and faster novels!
ps: I'm on my knees. I fell asleep half way through writing the third update last night. When I opened my eyes again, it was around 4 or 5 o'clock. In order to express my apology, I went back to bed and couldn't sleep. I will write another chapter besides this chapter and update after work!
