Chapter 454 Lin Fengxue, Lin Qingtian

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

When Wang Fuyu's tracks completely disappeared under the eyes of the US government, the Divine Continent Empire ushered in another sunny morning.

Under the sunlight, a somewhat old-fashioned black red flag slowly drove out of the Dragon Lake Park where the top leaders were gathered, heading in the direction of the Empire Development Committee.

Although Red Flag was the Empire's most distinctive high-class car, but sales within the empire remained modest, At a time when automobile groups around the world regard the Divine Continent Empire as the largest market for sales, Major or imported or joint venture brands occupied almost the majority of the middle and high-end market share of the empire. Although Red Flag Automobile could not be said to be squeezed out by these brands, it was an indisputable fact that it had not been able to successfully open the market. In the countless daily traffic flows of various cities in the empire, the number of Red Flag cars could not even be considered mainstream.

Large business red flags were even more rare.

Within the empire, large business red flags were basically synonymous with power. Furthermore, they were not ordinary powers. At the time when some departments, even the Governor-General and Deputy Governor-General, were using Audi Mercedes-Benz as a special bus, some of the Empire's most powerful figures were using large business red flags.

The red flag heading in the direction of the Development Committee was hung with the Cabinet's license plate.

Cabinet number four.

Lin Kwok-tung, the current member of the Imperial Policy Bureau and deputy prime minister of the Cabinet.

"Little Hu, put me in the Development Committee and send the Emperor to the Hidden Dragon Sea. Follow him today and return after sending him back to the War God Palace. I don't need a car today."

In the back row of the red flag, Lin Guodong smiled and instructed his driver. He seemed to be in a good mood.

Before the blushing driver could reply, the Emperor, who was sitting in the back row with Lin Guodong, had already squinted and smiled, "The grand Vice Prime Minister of the Empire was actually robbed of his car by an outsider from me. Then how are you going to return?"

"Anyway, I don't want to go back by bus."

Lin Guodong joked and said in a straightforward voice, "The Development Committee also has a car. Could it be that after the meeting, Comrade Lin Congzheng will still throw me aside and ignore me?"

The emperor smiled. When he heard the name Lin Congzheng, he nodded his head and said, "I heard from Xuanyuan last night that his mentality in politics has been a little depressed recently. Brother Lin, you are also his leader. It's time to cheer him up."

Lin Xuanyuan was depressed and cheering up.

Lin Guodong was stunned for a moment before he understood what the emperor meant. He nodded and said, "No problem."

If it's just personal, Throughout the royal family, Lin Guodong's personal relationship with the Emperor was ranked high, It could be said that how long had it been since the Emperor's debut, He had known Lin Guodong for as long as he could, The emperor rose up in Huating, At that time, Li Donglei was the secretary of Huating Municipal Party Committee, At that time, Lin Guodong, who was Li Donglei's secretary, was naturally one of the closest people to the young emperor. When the emperor was young, he almost stabbed Lin Qingtian to death. After that incident, Li Donglei took cover and sent the emperor to Beibei City. At that time, Lin Guodong, who was the mayor of Beibei City, arranged for him to leave the country.

After so many years, Lin Guodong was definitely one of the leaders of the royal family who had the closest relationship with the Emperor. After a year or so, most of the big names on the roster already belonged to him. What was in suspense was only the ranking. However, there was also another big name on the roster that was currently in a fierce competition.

The three major factions had their own candidates for the next Policy Bureau Standing Committee Leader and the First Deputy Prime Minister of the Cabinet, and the candidate of the Wang faction was Lin Guodong.

The Emperor was also very supportive of this point.

After the banquet in the Hidden Dragon Sea last night, the Emperor did not return to the War God Palace. Instead, he took a car with Lin Guodong to the Dragon Lake Park. If there was anyone else in the vast empire that the Emperor respected the most, then it was undoubtedly Li Donglei, the former Prime Minister of the empire.

This old man, who had been addressed as a great man by countless people, could not be overestimated for his contribution to the royal family or even to the entire royal family.

His kindness was as heavy as a mountain!

During the most difficult period of the Emperor's youth, Li Donglei was the first high-ranking official to join the royal lineage. During that period, it could be said that he was supporting the royal lineage alone.

If the emperor hadn't appeared, then the previous supreme head of the empire wouldn't have been Xue Zhiguo, but Li Donglei.

That was why the Emperor had always respected Li Donglei for so many years. He strongly supported his son-in-law, Guo Zhinu, and his secretary, Lin Guodong. He came to Nine Continents City and went to the Dragon Lake Park as soon as the welcoming banquet ended. He chatted with the old man for most of the night before resting.

In the morning, Lin Guodong, who was also living in the Dragon Lake Park last night, was about to attend a meeting of the Development Committee. The Emperor received an invitation from Lin Qingtian yesterday, so the Emperor hitched a ride and mentioned the Development Committee and Lin Congzheng. The Emperor also casually told Lin Guodong about Lin Xuanyuan's words.

"Is the matter of Lin Congzheng settled?"

After a moment of silence, Lin Guodong suddenly asked, seemingly confirming something.

The Emperor looked at him and nodded, "Xuanyuan let go. It can be seen that he was hesitant, but he decided to give him a chance in the end. I heard that Lin Congzheng went to the War God Palace yesterday? "I wonder what the two of them talked about before they came to such a conclusion. State Councilor and Director of the Development Committee had originally set the position of pushing Lin Congzheng up from the beginning, so it's not a big problem."

"We are prepared internally, so it's not too rushed to say it now. Unfortunately, Comrade Zheng He is going to be a little disappointed."

Lin Guodong shook his head. He sighed, Comrade Zheng He, He was now the number one secretary of the Liaoxi Province of the empire, one of the young and strong sects of the royal family, when Minister Guo Tianlong, the king 's tycoon, was in office at the local level, Zheng He was Minister Guo's old subordinate, Deeply favored by Minister Guo, After Guo Tianlong became a giant, Zheng He was also quickly promoted to the position of a provincial feudal official. Originally, the position of director of the Development Committee might be very attractive to a provincial governor, but for a provincial first secretary, there was no temptation. However, this year, the director of the Development Committee was appointed as a high-ranking state councilor, which instantly moved Zheng He.

State Councilor, although he is not a member of the Policy Bureau, he is on par with the Deputy Prime Minister. Zheng He is not old enough. If he can make a transition to the position of State Councilor, he will be more powerful when he rushes to a higher position in the future.

After Lin Congzheng's awkward situation was exposed in the royal family, Zheng He and a few other royal youths instantly became one of the favourite candidates to enter the Development Committee. After all, this position had been decided by the Wang faction and the southwest faction during the dispute over the Ministry of Officials at the beginning of the year. Although it was said that Lin Congzheng was in charge of politics at the beginning, if Lin Congzheng did not go up, the Wang faction would definitely not give it to other factions. They definitely wanted to promote their own people to hold this position firmly in their hands.

"Zheng He..."

The Emperor frowned slightly. He looked out of the window at the Development Committee building that was getting closer and closer. He shook his head and sighed, "I know this person. I'm afraid this year will be hard to arrange. Wait and see. If you really want to talk about an opportunity, Dongshan Province is actually an opportunity. However, the situation is complicated now. I'll let Xuanyuan talk to Elder Guo about this issue recently."

"It's good that you know."

Lin Guodong nodded. He took out a cigarette and handed it to the emperor. He also lit one. It wasn't the giant panda or China that the empire provided to the big shots. Instead, it was a black cigarette that was independently developed within the royal family and never sold outside. Lin Guodong took a deep breath and looked at the emperor. Suddenly, he smiled and said, "The Fuehrer is here to talk to you in secret today. Is there going to be a result?"

"I don't know."

The Emperor smoked his cigarette and pondered for a while. He shook his head mockingly, "An Empire Elder, even a Secret Service Elder, is very valuable. This time, Lin Qingtian wants to bite out some oil. I really don't know what he wants. He probably wants to push Jiang Mingshi up with his eyes on the position of the next Deputy Standing Committee Leader of the Cabinet."

Jiang Mingshi was currently ranked second only to Yang Xiuyuan and Chen Hualou as the deputy prime minister of the Cabinet, and he was still ranked ahead of Lin Guodong.

If Lin Qingtian pushed Jiang Mingshi up and made him the number one deputy prime minister of the cabinet, then the number of Southwest faction and King faction would be the same again. This was definitely something that the King faction did not want to see.

Moreover, if Jiang Mingshi was on it, Lin Guodong would not be able to move.

Lin Guodong lowered his eyelids and thought for a while before saying indifferently, "The Supervision Department?"

At the last meeting of the Policy Bureau Standing Committee, Lin Qingtian had asked Guo Zhining Nu and Jiang Mingshi to swap posts. Almost everyone had noticed the wolf ambitions of the southwest faction towards the chassis of the Supervision Department.

'"He can't take it away, so it's hard to talk about this matter. He wants more. I want to give him less. This balance is not easy to achieve. There are fewer factions in the empire, more power, and more relative pressure. The storm will be less intense. After all, when the dust settles, it will be difficult to find a balance."

The Emperor shook his head.

"Dismantle it when you see it."

Lin Guodong said helplessly. He watched as the car entered the Development Committee's compound and stopped in front of the Development Committee building. His gaze stopped in front of the welcoming crowd led by Lin Congzheng. Then, he opened the door and greeted the Emperor. He got off the car directly.

Inside the carriage, the Emperor glanced at the welcoming crowd outside, then leaned against the back seat and said, "Go to the Hidden Dragon Sea."

Lin Guodong's driver replied excitedly. He turned around and drove out of the Development Committee compound. He saw Deputy Prime Minister Lin shaking hands with Deputy Director Lin in the rearview mirror.

...

"Director Lin, this is not the first time I've come to the Development Committee. I can still find the door to the conference room. Why should you and your comrades come out to welcome me? It's too troublesome. Let's not do this again, okay?"

In front of the Development Committee building, Lin Guodong looked at Lin Congzheng with a somewhat complicated expression. He shook hands with Lin Congzheng with more strength and said with a smile.

"It was spontaneously organized by comrades. Everyone's enthusiasm is very high."

Lin Congzheng said politely and extended his hand to invite Lin Guodong into the building. His smile was a bit reluctant. The unease and anxiety about his future fell into Lin Guodong's eyes.

Lin Guodong sighed and smiled, "Well, let's take this elevator up first. Let's have a private breath at this meeting, shall we?"

Lin Congzheng nodded to the subordinates behind him and walked in.

In the elevator, Lin Guodong smiled and patted Lin Congzheng on the shoulder. He smiled and said, "In politics, Director Hong didn't come?"

Lin Congzheng was stunned for a moment, and his eyes seemed to flash with a trace of light. He nodded and said, "The director's health has deteriorated again. He has been recuperating at home these past few days."

Lin Guodong nodded and sighed emotionally, "Old Hong has worked hard all his life. Fortunately, he is about to arrive at his station. He can have a good rest now."

"Yes."

Lin Congzheng said dryly, absent-minded.

'"Go into politics. Last night at the banquet in the Hidden Dragon Sea, Xuanyuan told the Emperor that your mentality has been a little depressed recently. Your Highness thinks that I should cheer you up. What do you think? If Old Hong leaves, do you have the confidence to shoulder the burden of the Development Committee?"

Lin Guodong smiled and asked Lin Congzheng.

Lin Congzheng subconsciously nodded and was stunned.

After a while, he finally reacted from Lin Guodong's words. His entire body trembled violently.

"Lin... Prime Minister, you... are you telling the truth?!"

Lin Congzheng stared into Lin Guodong's eyes and asked in a trembling voice. His tone seemed to be one of disbelief.

"Of course, the Emperor that Xuanyuan told me last night and the Emperor told me personally just now, could it be fake?"

Lin Guodong smiled lightly.

Lin Congzheng took a deep breath. It was as if a suffocated person had suddenly come into contact with fresh air. He held Lin Guodong's hand tightly and his expression changed. In the end, he only spat out, "Thank you, Prime Minister Lin! Thank you!"

"I'm just bringing a message. If you want to thank me, then thank Xuanyuan and the Emperor."

Lin Guodong smiled and shook Lin Congzheng's trembling hand. He walked out of the elevator and said, "Comrade Congzheng, go wash your face. You don't look very spirited."

Lin Congzheng was shocked, apologized, and hurriedly walked to his office.

When he entered the office, he did not wash his face immediately. Instead, he took out his phone and dialed the number of Tiangong Mansion No. 3.

"In politics, what's wrong?"

Very quickly, Lin Huaiyu's voice came from the other end of the phone. Twilight fell.

"Dad... I've convinced His Highness, it's fine! I've convinced His Highness!"

Lin Congzheng took a deep breath, his tone trembling violently as he repeated these two words.

Yesterday, when he went to look for Lin Xuanyuan, it was originally a last-ditch gamble. In fact, there was not much hope for him. Now that the road had changed, Lin Congzheng's heart was still filled with this trace of sour surprise.

"Really?!"

On the phone, Lin Huaiyu's voice rose by an octave and the twilight swept away.

"Really, it's alright. Dad, I've convinced His Highness that we're alright. I can support this family now. Our Lin family will not collapse, and will never collapse again!"

Lin Congzheng clenched his fists and roared.

"Good, good, good..."

Lin Huaiyu muttered to himself, as if he could say nothing but a good word.

"Dad, I still have a meeting. We'll talk about it in detail when we get back tonight."

Lin Congzheng took the phone and said. After Lin Congzheng hung up the phone, he quickly went to the bathroom, took the basin of water, and stabbed his head into the water.

In the silence, the conversation with Lin Xuanyuan yesterday seemed to resound in his ears again.

"What do you know? ! Do you know what the Lin Clan of Nine Continents City is? Twenty years ago, my father and I personally sent my sister to prison! That same year, my younger brother broke away from his family for more than 20 years. Every Spring Festival, Mid-Autumn Festival, and Chongyang, do you know what the atmosphere is at the Lin Family's dining table in Nine Continents City? You don't know anything! I will do everything, kneel down for you and be your dog. I must protect my family! In my lifetime, if I can't even avenge my sister, who am I? "Lin Xuanyuan, please, give me a chance!"

"What would you like?"

"Power! Power that can make my family happy and secure!"

"You hate Lin Fengxue?"

"Why don't I hate him? The Lin Clan in Nine Continents City owes all of this to him! One day, I will slice him alive!"

"Why wait until that day? Once you have the power, I'll let you take revenge immediately. Do you dare?"

"What do I not dare to do?!"

What's there to be afraid of...

What's there to be afraid of! ! !

"Hu..."

Lin Congzheng suddenly raised his head from the water and panted violently. Lin Fengxue's calm face resounded in his mind. It had been suppressed for many years, and even the disgust that he felt he was about to forget rose once again from his heart, and it was extremely intense.

Lin Congzheng's eyes were red, carrying undisguised hatred and ferocity. He gritted his teeth and roared, "Lin Fengxue!"

"Bang!"

Lin Congzheng's expression twisted even more as he smashed his fist against the wall. He clenched his teeth and squeezed out another name from between his teeth.

"Lin! Qing! Heavens!"
