Chapter 141: Prodigal Son(1/2)
Full tea leaves were floating in the teapot, and the morning sun rose in the sky of Youzhou. The sunlight silently covered the entire city, spreading with the breeze and cold current at the same time.
Li Huacheng was surrounded by pines and cypresses and white snow in the Hidden Dragon Sea. The exquisite teapot was placed on the stone table. Steam rose slowly. He reached out to pick up the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea. He reached out to hold the rim of the cup and felt the heat spreading rapidly in his palms.
Wen Nuan chuckled and said: "When I inspected Beihai for the first time, I drank too much and took Wen Siyuan to chat all night. At that time, he was still the governor of Beihai, and I had just joined the cabinet. There were many common topics. Although at that time,
I was drunk, but I sobered up as we chatted. That in-depth conversation inspired me deeply."
“I don’t know what happened, but we chatted from his big villa to the yard outside the villa, and even watched the sunrise over the Beihai with him. It was also winter, and the Beihai
It's much colder than Youzhou, and it made me shiver all the time. Wen Siyuan said that this is his personal habit. He gets up before dawn every day and sits in the yard to think about the work for the next day, regardless of rain or snow, and he has persisted for many years.
, This can make him think more clearly."
Hua Zhengyang, who was opposite Li Huacheng, also poured himself a cup of tea and laughed: "I know this. It's not a secret in the parliament. It is said that Wen Siyuan still insists on getting up every day and sitting in the yard by himself. At his age
I’m not young anymore, and I don’t know if I can bear it.”
Li Huacheng thought for a while and said: "It has nothing to do with age. He said back then that although this method is good, it consumes a lot of cold medicine."
Hua Zhengyang: “…”
He glanced at his old leader helplessly: "So this is so early in the morning, what are you doing?"
Li Huacheng's work and rest time has no rules. Maybe it's because there are too many things to do and he can't follow any rules. Staying up all night is basically the norm. His combat effectiveness is comparable to that of a young man of 18 or 19 years old. He is full of energy. He definitely doesn't have any early mornings.
At least in Hua Zhengyang's memory, it was the habit of sitting quietly and drinking tea. It seemed like this was the first time that he had been called over to drink tea early in the morning.
“I’ve processed some documents and I’m not sleepy. I just heard that you didn’t sleep last night, so I just asked you to come over and have some tea.”
Li Huacheng said with a smile. In terms of busyness, the busiest person in Zhongzhou right now is undoubtedly Hua Zhengyang. The election is getting closer and closer. Hua Zhengyang must keep an eye on it at all times and at the same time mobilize the power within the academic faction. And he is now the leader of Zhongzhou.
The deputy prime minister, but with the death of Chen Fangqing, what he is doing now is exactly what Chen Fangqing did. A lot of work has been pressed down. Even if there are several other deputy prime ministers to share the workload, Hua Zhengyang feels a little breathless. He even
I don’t remember how long it’s been since I had a good rest.
“This weather...”
Hua Zhengyang shook his head. The heavy snow in Youzhou only stopped yesterday. It is the coldest when the snow melts. They are all considered to be elderly. If they catch a cold from the cold, it will affect their work even more.
But just think about it, it's rare for the old leader to be so interested, so Hua Zhengyang naturally doesn't want to spoil the fun.
“Our bones are not so weak that we can’t help but feel cold. We will be more energetic after freezing. This is what the doctor said.”
Li Huacheng took a sip of tea.
“Are you sure it’s freezing and not moving?”
Hua Zhengyang couldn’t help but ask.
“Who knows? Too lazy to ask.”
Li Huacheng handed Hua Zhengyang a cigarette: "Don't you feel that your mind is clearer now? The room is groggy. Even if you open the windows for ventilation, it still smells like smoke and is uncomfortable. I will send New Year greetings to the people of the country soon.
Image and temperament are very important.”
Hua Zhengyang suddenly fell silent.
Zhongzhou Radio’s professional filming team will enter the Hidden Dragon Sea this morning to shoot a video for each of the nine directors of Zhongzhou to send New Year greetings to the people of the country.
Such a video is shot every year and broadcasted on major TV stations in Central China a few days before the New Year for people across the country to see.
This matter was decided yesterday. For Central Continent Radio, this is a very serious task, but for several directors, this is a very simple job.
But such a simple task, when it was finalized yesterday, caused an uproar in Yinlonghai and even the entire parliament.
Because this New Year greeting video, I have to shoot nine videos.
In previous years, we also took pictures of nine, after all, there were nine directors.
But this year is completely different.
The whole world knows that Chen Fangqing is no longer here.
But this year’s New Year greeting video is still nine.
Zhongzhou and the Parliament represented by Li Huacheng.
The military headquarters of Dongcheng Invincible Representative.
Guo Wentian represents the elected parliament.
Zou Mulin represents the Consultative Council.
Wan Qingyun represents the Zhongzhou Xingzheng system.
Hua Zhengyang represents the cabinet.
Ji Wenwen represents the Supervision Department.
Zhou Yunhai represents the police system of Zhongzhou. There are eight people, and they are also the eight directors in Zhongzhou today.
But Li Huacheng proposed to shoot nine videos.
Eight videos were all shot in Yinlonghai.
The filming location for the last one is in Tiannan, Xuanyuan City, and the East Palace.
Li Tianlan, on behalf of the Zhongzhou Special Warfare System, wishes the people of the country a happy New Year.
The filming team of Zhongzhou Radio set out for Tiannan last night.
The entire parliament was shaken by Li Huacheng's decision, but the opposition voice was not loud.
Everyone knows that the rise of the Eastern Palace is unstoppable. At this time, it is an inevitable choice to bring the Eastern Palace closer to Zhongzhou, and it will also benefit the overall situation of Zhongzhou. In the face of this principled stance, the opinions of a single group are basically irrelevant.
It's not important anymore.
Li Huacheng was able to come back from the East Palace and brought back Li Kuangtu, which means that the parliament and the East Palace have let go of some of their knots. At this time, if they continue to give some benefits and give the East Palace a high enough status, it is completely
It's natural.
So although the directors were shaken in their hearts, they all agreed to Li Huacheng's proposal. Even Guo Wentian of the Prince Group did not object.
Everyone can imagine the reaction of the people across the country when the video of Li Tianlan sending New Year greetings to Zhongzhou appeared on the TV. That young face will have the greatest impact on everyone's imagination of the parliament.
A young man who can be on par with the directors.
The most invincible young master in the world today.
Such an image will appear in everyone's sight for the first time in hundreds of years.
Li Tianlan and Donghuang Gong will go directly to the front desk from the dark world that hides most people, walking in the sunshine and no longer hiding.
No one is sure whether this is a good thing or not.
But now Li Tianlan and Donghuang Palace have the capital to stand under the sun without fear of anything. They don't want to hide, and they don't bother to hide anything.
Zhongzhou has been mentally prepared for this.
With the video shooting completed and broadcast in a few days, how to guide public opinion, how to shape Li Tianlan's image, how to publicize Li's achievements, how to completely clear Li's name, and how to bring Li back to the top...
There is a clear process for all this.
That seems like a simple video, but it means so much.
Everyone in Zhongzhou will completely remember Li Tianlan, remember the Li family who was once glorious and also in decline. The shadow of the treason case will no longer exist. This video gave Li Tianlan a status that can be side by side with the directors, but it is also
The position and imprint imprinted on the East Palace and Li Tianlan. With this imprint, at least Zhongzhou no longer has to worry about the East Palace losing control or even betraying, and other countries and forces will give up their thoughts on winning over the East Palace.
All of this is based on the initial lessons learned by the Wang family in Beihai.
When the Wang family of Beihai rose, it took Zhongzhou decades to turn Beihai into Zhongzhou Beihai.
The complex games and confrontations involved, if not careful, may change the pattern of the world. Both Zhongzhou and Beihai were exhausted mentally and physically at that time. Now facing the Eastern Palace, the actions of the Central Continent Council can be said to be abnormal.
Simply cut through the mess quickly, suppress everything that could happen, and use the utmost sincerity to close the relationship with the Eastern Palace.
And the Eastern Imperial Palace will definitely give Zhongzhou enough rewards.
This is something that everyone knows very well.
“Li Tianlan is very cooperative, but you gave me too much.”
Hua Zhengyang said softly.
What exactly did Li Huacheng and Donghuang Palace trade? This is a question that everyone is thinking about. The news from Donghuang Palace is very clear. Li Huacheng stayed in Donghuang Palace for a month, during which he only met Li Tianlan once.
, it didn’t take long, but Li Tianlan simply let Li Kuangtu go. Everyone had been guessing Li Huacheng’s trump card before, but until now, no one could guess what kind of trump card it was that could completely kill him in an instant.
Li Tianlan was moved.
Hua Zhengyang also didn’t know the truth until Li Huacheng came back.
To be honest, he didn't understand Li Huacheng's approach, but he didn't say much and chose to support it.
His structure is indeed much worse than Li Huacheng's, but he completely trusts Li Huacheng's vision.
"no more, no less."
Li Huacheng shook his head, disapproving.
“That is the future of all Middle-earth.”
Hua Zhengyang stared at the tea in front of him and said.
To be continued...
