Ever since I returned from a trip to Africa three months ago, the situation in Yanjing has become extremely tense.
Perhaps they foresaw something, the Wang family made big moves one after another. Not only Wang Khan, who was known as the three tigers of the Wang family, Wang Anyi and Wang Bingwang began to run around, but even Wang Enci, who had always been in charge of the Wang family's mansion, began to
Much more active.
Some potential big families in Yanjing have been patronized by them, and their intention to win over them is very obvious.
The direct result of their big move was that the original family structure of Yanjing began to fall apart. Some second-tier and third-tier small families and small forces were scurrying around like frightened birds, eager to find the strongest tree to hug them.
People in Yanjing were panicked.
On the contrary, the Lin family, which is inextricably linked to the Wang family, was extremely calm and did not express any opinions or expressions about this turmoil from beginning to end.
Perhaps they were also afraid that some elderly people in Zhongnanhai who were very wary of the incident decades ago would have suspicions.
The Wang family has a sign that a powerful enemy is approaching, but the Ye family is not idle either.
In addition to Ye Huang's preliminary business expansion of Xuanyuan Hui, his grandfather and aunt are also conducting an inventory of some accounts of the Ye Group.
Wanting to overthrow the Wang family has been Grandpa's long-cherished wish for decades. However, the other party cannot sit still and wait for death. They must launch a strong counterattack. Although the entire Ye family is mentally prepared to pay a huge price, they can minimize the losses.
But it is also what they are most happy to see.
After decades of fighting, there is no reason not to believe that Wang Enci, who has always been shrewd, will not place some of their people in the Ye Group. Similarly, in the past few decades, the Ye Group has also placed many of its own people in the Wang Group.
people.
In fact, at a certain level, the espionage activities between large group companies are not much weaker than those between countries, and may even be stronger.
The Ye Group has tens of thousands of employees from its headquarters to all over the world. This year alone, the intelligence system under the Ye Group has dug up nearly 30 spies from different competitors, among whom are related to the Wang family.
Relationships account for nearly half.
Emperor Ye knew very well that what Mr. Dugu said to him today meant that he truly accepted him.
If in the past it was just the old man's appreciation and affirmation of the young man's courage, drive and ability to do things, then the old man's words, just like what he said before, he really regarded himself as his grandson-in-law.
Thinking about the way the old man looked at me with a straight face at the military competition, then the cold face when he met later, and the later softening of the old man's attitude, until he accepted and acknowledged himself today, this journey has been quite difficult.
"By the way, Grandpa Dugu, will it have any impact on you if Xiaoxuan and I establish a relationship?"
"What do you think?" Looking at Emperor Ye, the old man raised his eyebrows and asked, "It's rare that you still think about me, an old man like me. There will definitely be some influence."
He waved his hand to signal Emperor Ye to sit down, and the old man sat down immediately.
"Whether it is political or military aspects, what the higher-ups always seek is a kind of equality and balance of power. The appearance of your boy has completely broken this pattern."
"Originally, your Ye family and your grandfather's side are quite powerful. They are considered a big force in Yanjing. They have been shouting with the Wang family for these years, and neither side can do anything about the other. This situation is what the higher-ups are most happy with.
Seen.”
"But since you returned, this situation has been broken inadvertently."
"You mean the Chu family and the Tang family?"
"Are these two the only ones? This is not the only thing you want to do when you are busy."
He glared at Ye Huang, "The Chu family was originally far away from the center of power. The old man of the Chu family also had military exploits back then, but he was not worthy enough to go to Beijing. If you hadn't appeared, he probably wouldn't have thought about Yanjing's affairs.
, but you happened to show up and inspired everyone in the Chu family from childhood to old age. Chu Qingkuang, a bastard, suddenly rose from lieutenant general to general, and his prestige in the army soared straight up. Isn't this all due to you."
After hearing what the old man said, Ye Huang touched his nose and smiled coquettishly.
For the Chu family to be where they are today, it is true that they have helped a lot. From the aircraft carrier drawings to the military competition later, to Chu Qingkuang being captured and being rescued by himself, it can be said that the Chu family has indeed been indebted to them for many times.
"Not only the Chu family, but also the Nangong family. Mr. Nangong doesn't care much about Yanjing's affairs, but after all, he is a family that used to protect the country. Although it seems to be in name only, after all, the title is there, and the superiors will not deny it.
If I go back to Yanjing and say something, some people will still listen."
"Then there is the Tang family. What experience has this old man Tang Jieyuan had with me? You know in your heart that he, I, and all our children have sacrificed for this country. Not to mention other things, just because of this sincerity, the higher-ups dare not treat me."
The two are disrespectful, not to mention that your little girlfriend Tang Guo is also the chief scientist, this is a manifestation of capital."
"Others, such as little old man Zhang Wanhong, your grandfather, and others who are inextricably related to you, are countless."
"It can be said that your return has invisibly entangled all the people who should not belong to the same interest group together. You said you are not capable of this."
With a chuckle all his life, Dugu Aotian looked at Ye Huang and didn't know what to say.
In all of this, this kid didn't think about the deeper things at all, but just because every core member of the family was inextricably linked to this kid, the major families had to be pulled together.
As we walked, we slowly formed a circle.
As for this circle, as far as the old man sees it now, there is no influential circle in Yanjing that is as big as the one currently run by the Ye family.
Being large means that the family can obtain more benefits and have a greater say in certain issues.
But bigger is not always better. Once the higher ups feel that your power is beyond their control, the entire circle will begin to fall apart.
What Dugu Aotian is currently worried about is whether this turning point will be miscalculated with the help of some people, and ultimately cause disaster to the Ye family and even all the families in the entire circle.
"I didn't expect that it would end up like this. Could it be that the higher-ups started investigating our Ye family?"
"Investigation is definitely inevitable. The last time I went to the Military Commission meeting, I heard some rumors. Not only your Ye family, but also the Chu family, the Tang family and your grandfather were all secretly investigated. But don't worry, the investigation
It’s a very common thing in the military, and as long as nothing is found, it’s okay.”
"What if something is found out?"
"Are you treasonous?"
Staring at Ye Huang, Dugu Laotian asked.
"How is that possible!"
"That's it. No matter how powerful your family is or who you are arguing with, all the army wants is your loyalty! When I was rebellious, I personally killed a few Red Guards who wanted to stand on my head.
!”
"If you behave upright and stand upright, what is there to be afraid of?"
The old man said solemnly and solemnly.
"The thing that appeals to me most about you, old man, is that you have a patriotic heart. Old man, I have sacrificed my life and blood for this country all my life. When I am about to die, how can I still be shocked by some little dancing?"
"You don't have to worry about me. They can only weaken my voice in the military. It's not a big deal. I'm too lazy to take care of some bad things."
After hearing what Mr. Dugu said, Emperor Ye couldn't help but sigh. The life of the old man could be described as magnificent. He grew from a cowherd boy who herded cattle at a landlord's house to a general of the Republic. He spanned decades of history, conquered the country and conquered the country, and made many military exploits.
Hehe, in today's China, there are indeed few people who can boast about him.
"Haha, Grandpa Dugu, of course no one dares to do anything to you, but the same cannot be said for our Ye family. After all, my grandfather wears the hat of a returned Chinese, so he will always be suspected by some people. I'm afraid we can't speak this time.
, it’s not impossible that someone has already said bad things about our Ye family.”
"You don't have to worry about these things. Your grandfather is not a jobber, and your Ye family is not just what it looks like. In short, as long as the old immortals above don't reach a consensus, nothing will happen to the Ye family."
"Of course, this also illustrates a problem from another aspect, that is, if you want to bring down the Wang family, I am afraid that some consensus must be reached from above. The most important thing is that the Lin family chose to keep silent on this matter!"
"Does the Lin family still have a say in this matter?"
Upon hearing this, Emperor Ye was shocked.
"Otherwise, if the Lin family hadn't maintained the veto power, the Wang family would have been killed by your father's time."
He snorted softly, "You are still too young, and you don't know much about some things. You may not be blind about certain things, but you just can't find the evidence."
Patting Ye Huang on the shoulder, Dugu Aotian continued, "The Republic has gone through decades of ups and downs, and now, various forces are complicated. Some things are either black if you call them black, or white if you call them white.
, some things, what is weighed above is whether getting rid of this thing is beneficial or harmful to the whole!"
"You have to know that if a screw on the tractor is broken, it may still be able to start. If it is missing, it may not start. Do you understand what I say?"
After these words, Ye Huang was stunned. These words of the old man were completely contrary to the logical structure established by Ye Huang before.
Ye Huang has always believed that right is right and wrong is wrong, and he has never made another choice. However, Mr. Dugu said this to make him understand that some things are not suitable for solving by right or wrong.
"It's true that the Lin family made mistakes later, but you can't deny the great achievements he made in the War of Resistance and Liberation. How many people in this huge republic can compare? The Lin family has this veto power, but it is also the former
I earned it by working hard for half my life."
"Forget it, let's not talk about it. Go back and think about these things yourself. The matter between you and Xiaoxuan is settled. Come and sit here more often. It's so cold here."
As he said that, the old man shook his head slightly and muttered, "F*ck, I'm already going to be buried, so I still have to worry about this, what's the point of the world!"
