When Xue Xiang saw General An, he was playing chess again, this time in the main room. This is a retro-style old house with an area of about 200 square meters. It is decorated with antiques. Although there are no carved beams and paintings, it can be decorated and furnished.
It's all late
The style of the Qing Dynasty, the huanghuali winged hat Taishi chair, the mahogany Eight Immortals table, and elegant blue and white porcelain can be seen everywhere. Xue Xiang walked straight into the main room, and as soon as he stepped on the threshold, he saw two strangers in the main room besides Lao Wang standing aside.
The setting sun was shining in the evening, and the afterglow shone in from the open window, and happened to fall on the chessboard. The person playing chess with Old General An was a middle-aged man wearing a "really cool" short-sleeved shirt. He looked about forty years old, with a big face and big ears.
, with fair skin and shiny black hair combed back, is staring at the chess game and thinking about the chessboard.
Sitting on one side is a man with short hair and a black face. He looks a bit younger than the white-faced man. He also has a square face, but his face is lean and his expression is strong. Their outlines are very similar. The black-faced man is wearing a military uniform with short sleeves and a straight back.
You must sit upright, with your legs slightly apart and your hands on your knees, in a standard military sitting posture.
Xue Xiang's arrival did not cause any disturbance. Only Lao Wang smiled at him from afar, pointed to the free side of the small square table with the chessboard, and motioned for him to sit down and watch the chess. Xue Xiang did not say anything, and pulled away his chair to sit down.
,
The two people playing chess did not raise their heads, but the black-faced soldier had been staring at him since he sat down, his eyes flashing, and his eyes flashed. Xue Xiang was shocked by the sight, and smiled at him awkwardly, lowering his head and pretending
Observe the battle situation.
This observation lasted for half an hour. This game of chess was so boring, without any fireworks, it was just a grinding effort. Xue Xiang yawned continuously when he saw it. Both sides only defended but not attacked, constantly deploying troops and generals to build defense lines.
He really couldn't bear to watch such boring chess, so he just leaned on the back of his chair and took a nap.
"Hey, wake up."
Xue Xiang opened his eyes and saw Lao Wang pushing him. He rubbed his eyes and took a closer look. He saw the three people at the same table staring at him. The old man's face was calm, obviously knowing his temper, and the white-faced man's face was stern.
, with a serious expression, while the black-faced man looked incredulous.
"Haha, what, I, I have just been discharged from the hospital. I am not in good spirits. The old man Haihan, Haihan."
Don't pay attention to A, B, C and D.
"You kid, you're so pissy!" Old General An scolded, "Tell me, why are you still standing there, asking you to come here just to see my old man show his disgrace?"
"By the way, your old chess skills are as strong as your old will to live. They are time-tested. It's too late for me to learn." As soon as he arrived at Songzhuzhai, Xue Xiang was like a monkey entering the water curtain cave.
He couldn't help but joke: "What are you talking about? Two older comrades are here and you don't introduce them?" He didn't know that the old man wanted him to talk about the earthquake. He hadn't finished drafting it yet, so he decided to fool him first.
a while.
Seeing the old general's hesitant expression, Lao Wang quickly took over and said, "Xiao Xue, let me introduce to you. These two are the sons of An Lao. This is the eldest son, Comrade An Zaihai, and this is the second son, Comrade An Zaijiang."
.Comrade Zaihai works in the Propaganda Department of the CPC Central Committee as deputy minister, and Comrade Zaijiang is the commander of the 58th Division..."
"Comrade Zaihai, Comrade Zaijiang, why are you being polite to him?" The old man interrupted Lao Wang, pointed at Xue Xiang and said: "These two are your second uncle and third uncle. They didn't take advantage of you. I asked about it.
I know your age." An Zaihai had another brother who died young, so An Zaihai became the eldest son, but he was ranked second in the old man's heart.
The two An brothers were stunned, why did the old man favor this boy so much? Although he knew that he had called us back specifically to discuss something, how could he have known that he had called back a young boy who didn't know etiquette? When did the old man's eyesight become so shallow?
?….
While the two An brothers were suspicious, Xue Xiang was also curious. What surprised him was not that the old man was close to him, but that he was also close to the old man in his heart. What he was surprised about was that General An's family had not heard of any children in politics.
Yeah? In future generations, I will live in peace.
After my father passed away, I heard that there were children of the An family active in the military, but I had never heard of it in the political circles. As a senior bench of the Party History Office, he knew much more about these wealthy families than the average person. Guan An Zaihai should not be old enough to do so.
Over fifty, already official
Vice Minister, if nothing unexpected happens, there is no doubt that he will enter the decision-making level as the second-generation successor of the An family. Why will his reputation not be obvious in future generations? Looking at his ruddy complexion and thick hair, he is obviously in good health and well-kept.
, most likely not due to physical reasons.
Well, then we are on the wrong team! When he thought about this, he suddenly understood. No wonder An Lao's generation of heroes was so careless after his death. It turned out that he lost power in front of him, and it was probably a mistake on a major political issue, otherwise he would not be in the same position.
The funeral was a bit slow.
Xue Xiang's face was gloomy and uncertain. An Zaihai was particularly unhappy when he saw it, and hummed: "It's aggrieved to call him uncle. Don't be too arrogant at such a young age."
"Second uncle, what are you talking about? I was just wondering if you are forty years old or not, and I'm afraid that I might suffer from this shout." These words were so beautiful that they covered up all the embarrassment. He had already sensed that An Zaihai
From the faint fragrance on his body, and looking at his glossy black hair, and his smooth forehead without a trace of wrinkles, he had a pretty good idea of his habit of dressing up.
Sure enough, An Zaihai burst out laughing and said: "What a smooth-tongued boy, you can't tell that I am already forty-nine years old, and I am worthy of being called your second uncle." He has always been extremely proud of his own health care skills.
Xue Xiang's compliment just scratched his itch. The original dissatisfaction had long since disappeared. The more he looked at this boy, the more satisfied he became.
Lao Wang gave Xue Xiang a thumbs up from behind the old man's back. This guy is really horribly shrewd, aware of the subtleties, and able to understand people's hearts.
The old general snorted and said: "Boy Xue, don't bullshit me about the earthquake. Don't think that just because the newspaper advertises you as a hero, you just take it seriously. This matter is not over yet. I want to see it."
See how smart you are, don’t tell me anything about the prediction by the guy named Ma, I have read a few books, but I have never heard of someone who can determine the hours of death in an earthquake."
It turned out that as soon as the earthquake in Qin and Tang Dynasties broke out, the decision-makers got the news and urgently held a meeting of the twenty-three-member delegation. After hearing that Qin and Tang Dynasties were reduced to rubble by the unprecedented earthquake, the decision-makers were shocked and lost their voices for a while, and hurriedly contacted the troops stationed in Qin.
The leader asked about the situation. This contact led to Hong Ying. After hearing Hong Ying’s report, the bosses were completely shocked. They all looked at the military boss who was attending the meeting and was also a member of the Twenty-Three Group.
Mr. An, everyone slandered.
Your military is too self-assertive. How dare you hide such a big matter from the central government? Do you still need the leadership of the party?
Lao An, Lao An, we are all old friends. Why did you start eating alone? Why didn't you inform the J Committee?
The military and political officials stared at General An and asked him to give an explanation. The old man was also kept in the dark. He was stunned when he heard that Xue Xiang had given the order following his instructions.
Qiqi asked him to explain the problem. What could he say, so he had to tell the truth.
When he said that he didn't know anything about it, he immediately exploded. The other side took the lead in attacking, demanding severe punishment for Xue Xiang who had messed up his life. This arrow was clearly aimed at Xue Xiang and implicitly aimed at the military. The three military leaders who attended the meeting
Brother, how can they get what they want, so Xue Xiang saves millions of people, whether he has merit or not.
For a time, the meeting of the twenty-three-member group was filled with smoke and war smoke was everywhere. The two parties took this as an opportunity to launch a fierce confrontation. However, the strength of both parties was equal. The authority was not established and wavered. At the critical moment,
, disaster relief comes first and ends the controversy….
Immediately afterwards, the news of the Qin and Tang earthquakes shocked the Republic and the world. After all, such a violent earthquake occurred near the capital of the Republic, and it was difficult not to attract international attention. Later, the international community learned that the Republic had predicted it in advance.
After this earthquake, appropriate measures were taken and millions of people were successfully evacuated from the epicenter city. They were immediately shocked and even cried out to God.
The Western world no longer puts on airs and pretends that the two-pole world has ceased to communicate with each other. They are all asking the Republic to allow them to send experts and scholars to study and conduct research. Among them, a certain earthquake-prone island country is crying and shouting to send people over.
At this time, the Republic was not only unaccompanied in the international community, but also almost alone. Apart from having a good relationship with a few socialist brothers, it had few sincere friends. With this God-given opportunity, the Republic
How can you guys bother to care about this little shrimp Xue Xiang? They are busy fighting earthquake relief and breaking up the war at the same time. Whoever is still clinging to Xue Xiang now is ignoring the overall situation and not talking about zz.
Xue Xiang didn't know that there were so many twists and turns in it, so he laughed and said: "Old man, there is nothing wrong with God. I can only say that blessing comes to the soul, but I hit it by mistake. I went to Qintang to pick up a friend and walked to the pond.
I saw a group of frogs croaking wildly, and the water surface was bubbling. I knew something was wrong at that time, and I was afraid there was going to be an earthquake. On the way, I met a horse hammer, which confirmed the two facts.
, so I had the courage to do this. As for the time you said is accurate, it can only be said to be God's will. How about you tell me what happened?" He explained half-truthfully, the most critical question,
He kicked him back again. Originally, what should he say about this matter? Do you want him to say that he was reborn? Otherwise, he would just lie about nonsense, and no one would believe him.
The old man was choked, and he couldn't catch the ball kicked back by Xue Xiang. This couldn't be explained at all, so he had to believe his story.
"Old man, you said that I saved the people of the Qin and Tang Dynasties. If you didn't hurry up and give me a reward, why would you chase me and ask questions? I am doing you a favor, right? I don't think you are like that.
What kind of person can't bear to see the kindness of his own people?" Xue Xiang struck while the iron was hot, changed the subject, and knocked him down.
The old general laughed loudly, "You boy, do you know how much trouble you have caused for my old man? You also need rewards. Just wiping your butt takes a lot of effort from me."
Of course Xue Xiang knew that he could sit here peacefully, chatting and laughing, and the help of the old general must be considerable. In the turbulent zz struggle, if there is no mountain behind to protect you from the wind and rain, no matter how great your achievements are, you will be beaten on the backhand.
