Chapter 45 Chapter 7: The Prime Minister's Grandpa
It's three o'clock in the morning, when most people are sleeping soundly, but suddenly someone appears next to the bed, which would make anyone break out in a cold sweat. But this middle-aged man didn't seem to have much reaction, and just wrinkled slightly.
He glanced at Lu Xiaozhan, and when he called out "Uncle Qi", his expression changed again.
"Who are you?"
The middle-aged man surnamed Qi put on some clothes and got out of bed directly. He came to the sofa and sat down. He pointed to the side and motioned for Lu Xiaozhan to sit too. He came to find him at this time, and he was walking on the balcony. Obviously
It was a bit strange, but when this young man called him uncle, it made him feel relieved.
Lu Xiaozhan was not polite and sat down generously. He did not answer the middle-aged man's words, but took something out of his pocket, spread his palm and put it in front of the middle-aged man's eyes.
The middle-aged man's expression changed: "Where did you get this?"
It was an antique warm fish-shaped jade, the whole body was emerald green, with only a faint trace of blood on the belly of the fish. The smooth surface and slight light showed the nobility and longevity of this piece of jade.
Lu Xiaozhan did not answer, but just smiled and said something incomprehensible: "The candied haws on a stick is not as tasty as Erguotou."
The middle-aged man's pupils shrank suddenly, and Huo stood up: "Where is Xiaoyuan? What happened?"
"It's okay now, but it will be hard to say if it drags on any longer." Lu Xiaozhan handed the jade into the hands of the middle-aged man with a helpless expression on his face.
The middle-aged man asked in a deep voice: "What's going on?"
Lu Xiaozhan hesitated for a moment: "Uncle Qi, time is tight. Brother Yuan said that this matter can only be settled by asking the old man to intervene, otherwise there will be a big mess. I will tell you the specific situation when I meet the old man."
The middle-aged man frowned and pondered for a moment, then finally nodded and said, "Okay, I'll take you to see my father right away." As he spoke, he quickly changed his clothes, and soon he put on a navy blue suit.
He suddenly looked heroic.
He picked up the phone and was about to dial the number when Lu Xiaozhan suddenly stopped him: "Uncle Qi, do you want to call the driver? I'm afraid we can't go out like this."
The middle-aged man was stunned. He was indeed going to ask the driver to prepare the car, but Lu Xiaozhan's move made him a little confused: "What?"
Lu Xiaozhan shrugged: "There are hidden stakes downstairs in your house. If we go out like this, we will reveal our secrets."
"Hidden stakes? Are you saying that my home is being watched?" The middle-aged man frowned.
Lu Xiaozhan said: "Yes, so if we want to go out, we can only go here." He pointed to the floor-to-ceiling windows to the west, where there was a dark night outside.
Although he was full of doubts, the middle-aged man still believed Lu Xiaozhan and followed him out of the window in the dark. He carefully climbed downstairs along the downspout. Lu Xiaozhan led the way and followed the shadows in the villa area to the wall.
Lu Xiaozhan took out a pair of flying claws and threw them on the wall. He turned around and said apologetically: "For the same reason, we can't even go through the door."
The middle-aged man didn't have the slightest doubt, because the piece of jade and the incomprehensible words made him confirm that Lu Xiaozhan was not a bad person, and that he came to save his nephew, who was Qi Xiuyuan.
With the help of Lu Xiaozhan, the middle-aged man finally climbed over the wall smoothly. Only when his feet touched the ground did he say with a wry smile: "I have lived here for decades, and this is the first time I have climbed over this wall.
"
There was a dilapidated Jetta parked on the roadside not far away. Lu Xiaozhan looked around to make sure no one was watching, then he pulled the middle-aged man into the car, started the car, refueled, and jumped out in the night.
…
Somewhere in the capital of China, there is a group of ancient and ancient buildings, but the high surrounding walls and the soldiers with guns on guard at the door show that this place is different. This is the place with the strictest security in the entire China.
It is also the residence of the highest leadership of the Chinese government and is commonly known as the National Courtyard.
A dilapidated car came speeding from a distance and stopped at the door with a squeak, dragging a long scorch mark on the ground. The guard soldiers did not move at all, still standing upright with their guns in hand, but their eyes were wary.
come over.
The car window rolled down, revealing an anxious face. It was the middle-aged man who was brought out by Lu Xiaozhan. He handed over a pass in his hand: "I'm looking for the Prime Minister."
The soldier checked the document, confirmed it was correct, and then let him go. It was still past three in the morning. Normally, he could not let anyone go, but the name on the pass made him have no choice but to open the gate, because this middle-aged man was the prime minister of the country.
Qi Zhi'an's son is also Qi Dongping, deputy director of the China Commission for Discipline Inspection.
Prime Minister Qi is nearly seventy years old. He usually goes to bed very late to deal with official duties, and today is no exception. He doesn't go to bed until after two o'clock. Being old, he will inevitably wake up very early. The slightest movement will wake him up, so when
Qi Dongping had already gotten up when he knocked on the door twice.
His son was not an ignorant person, and something big must have happened to him at this time. The old prime minister put on his clothes and walked out of the bedroom to the living room, just as the guard opened the door.
Premier Qi nodded to his son and motioned for him to sit down first. His mantra was: "What's going on?"
"Dad, let him talk. I don't know what's going on." After Qi Dongping finished speaking, he turned to Lu Xiaozhan and said, "Okay, can you tell us what happened now?"
This is the Prime Minister of the country. Although his hair is gray, he is in excellent spirits. His eyes are bright and lively, but he is just a little tired. Although Lu Xiaozhan is not in the country very much, he still knows a little about the deeds of this Prime Minister. He is an upright person.
He is resolute and considerate of people's livelihood. He can be said to be a good prime minister of China's generation. Now looking at him face to face, Lu Xiaozhan admired him from the bottom of his heart. This prime minister occupies a high position, but he does not have any arrogance. On the contrary, he is amiable and like a neighbor.
Grandpa at home.
"Premier Qi, I came to see you to bring reinforcements." Lu Xiaozhan calmed down and said this solemnly.
"Oh? Reinforcement? Haha... rescue who?" Premier Qi was slightly stunned, then smiled.
Lu Xiaozhan said every word: "Save China, save the people of the world, and Qi Xiuyuan!"
Premier Qi was startled and glanced at his son, only to find that Qi Dongping's face was solemn, not joking at all.
Affected by Lu Xiaozhan, Premier Qi couldn't help but become serious and asked in a deep voice: "What's going on?"
Lu Xiaozhan thought for a while and suddenly asked: "Grandpa Prime Minister, do you know that Qi Xiuyuan was arrested?"
Premier Qi lit up a cigarette and said expressionlessly: "Although he is my grandson, he must bear responsibility for making mistakes. He should know this. If you come to me in the middle of the night, that's why
I think this matter can be avoided." As he spoke, he glanced at Qi Dongping, feeling vaguely reproachful and annoyed.
Lu Xiaozhan shook his head: "Grandpa Prime Minister, you have been deceived. In fact, all of us have been deceived."
Prime Minister Qi was stunned again. He suddenly felt a little funny. This young man who didn't know his background had only been in front of him for a few minutes, but what he said made him stunned several times.
"Oh? Then tell me, who tricked you, and also tricked me, an old man?"
Although Premier Qi's tone was very relaxed, it still revealed the pressure from the superior. However, Lu Xiaozhan didn't care and just said calmly: "You are the Prime Minister, but you don't necessarily know everything. You are the one who cheated you."
