The next day, Chen Ye went north to Beijing again.
But he didn't tell Chen Xiurui this time.
After Chen Ye arrived at Yanjing High-speed Railway Station, he stopped a taxi and told the taxi driver that he was going to the Red Wall Courtyard.
The taxi driver looked confused:
"Brother, are you kidding me? Are you sure you want to go there?"
"Um."
"I'll go ahead and take a taxi to the Red Wall Courtyard. It's been a long time since I've seen you!"
The taxi driver shook his head and muttered, then drove Chen Ye to the red wall compound.
Chen Ye did not respond to the taxi driver. Instead, he took out his mobile phone and dialed Zhao Tuzhi's secretary Liu Zuolin.
"Ono?"
Liu Zuolin was a little confused.
Before he answered the call, he checked the caller ID several times to confirm that it was Chen Ye's call, but he still couldn't believe it.
Chen Ye directly identified himself and explained the purpose of the call:
"Hello, Mr. Liu, my name is Chen Ye. I want to see Mr. Zhao. Please give me your instructions."
"Okay, Xiaoye, I'll call you back later."
Liu Zuolin responded quickly.
If other young people from Xia Kingdom called him and wanted to see Zhao Tuzhi, he would definitely think that there was something wrong with the other person's mind.
But Chen Ye is different.
This young man used Chen Xiurui's red flag with military plates as a special car in Yanjing City. Entering and leaving Wu Guiqiang's office was as easy as going home. Moreover, he angrily rebuked the elderly including Sun Hongxia at that highest-level private party!
More importantly, Zhao Tuzhi took the initiative to meet Chen Ye in person!
five minutes later.
Liu Zuolin felt lucky for his decision.
Because Zhao Tuzhi agreed to meet Chen Ye.
Liu Zuolin called Chen Ye back immediately and told Chen Ye the news. Zhao Tuzhi also said that Chen Ye could see him anytime he came to Yanjing.
Chen Ye told Liu Zuolin that he was on his way to the Red Wall Courtyard, expressed his thanks, and then hung up the phone.
At the same time, the taxi driver secretly glanced at Chen Ye several times through the reflector in the car, and finally couldn't help but say:
"No...no, brother, are you serious?!"
Chen Ye ignored the driver who was burning with gossip, and closed his eyes. It seemed that he was resting his mind with his eyes closed, but in fact he was rehearsing the scene of his meeting with Zhao Tuzhi.
after an hour.
The taxi took Chen Ye to the entrance of the Red Wall Courtyard.
Chen Ye scanned the QR code to pay and got off the bus.
One of Liu Zuolin's subordinates took the initiative to greet him and said:
"Hello, Comrade Chen Ye, Director Liu asked me to pick you up."
"Thanks."
Chen Ye thanked him and followed him into a special car.
The special car drove through the red-walled courtyard without any obstruction and came directly to the entrance of the small courtyard.
Liu Zuolin had received the report and was waiting at the entrance of the courtyard.
"Master Liu-Ren, I'm sorry to trouble you."
Chen Ye got out of the car and walked towards Director Liu and said.
Liu Zuolin smiled bitterly and said: "No trouble. Zhang Zhang is waiting for you in the study, I will take you there."
"good."
Chen Ye nodded, stopped being polite, and followed Liu Zuolin into the courtyard and into the antique building.
Soon, Liu Zuolin and Chen Ye arrived at the door of Zhao Tuzhi's study and knocked gently on the door.
Zhao Tuzhi's voice soon came from the study:
"Come in."
"Shou Zhang, Comrade Chen Ye is here."
Liu Zuolin opened the office door and stood at the door to report.
Zhao Tuzhi put down the Zizhi Tongjian in his hand and said, "Let him come in."
"good."
Liu Zuolin nodded, then made a sign to Chen Ye to enter, and left.
Chen Ye stepped into the door with the highest threshold in Xia Kingdom and glanced at the old man sitting at the desk.
The old man was also looking at him.
Their eyes met in the air, sparking an invisible spark.
Then, Zhao Tuzhi motioned for Chen Ye to sit on the sofa, and then took the initiative to speak, breaking the silence of the study:
"Xiao Ye, I heard that because the body of the sky burial was not found, only his memorial service was held. Has his body been found now?"
"No."
Chen Ye sat on the sofa and responded calmly.
Zhao Tuzhi noticed that something was wrong with Chen Ye's attitude, so he went straight to the point and asked:
"You suddenly came to Yanjing to see me. What's the matter?"
"You don't know?"
Chen Ye asked back.
"have no idea."
Zhao Tuzhi raised his eyebrows slightly.
In the huge Xia Kingdom, there were only two people who dared to talk to him like this.
One is a dead old man who was buried in the sky.
The second one is Chen Ye!
"I asked Sun Liancheng to bring a message to you and your wife, but it seems he didn't bring the message."
Chen Ye stared at Zhao Tuzhi's face and found that Zhao Tuzhi didn't look like he was pretending.
"What message did you ask Sun Liancheng to bring to me?"
Zhao Tuzhi looked confused.
Originally, he thought that Chen Ye came to him because of the matter of the Sky Burial Old Man and Chen Ye's grandma.
But at this moment, when he heard the name Sun Liancheng, he realized that his judgment was wrong, so he took the initiative to ask.
"Is such that……"
Chen Ye straightforwardly told Zhao Tuzhi the ins and outs of the matter.
After Zhao Tuzhi heard this, he was silent for a full two minutes before he asked:
"Are you sure that the woman named Zhu Yeqing was acting in self-defense? Wasn't she over-defense and intentional homicide?"
"Sure."
Chen Ye nodded.
Although he had intimidated Bai Qihang's men at the time, it did not mean that Zhu Yeqing was absolutely safe - Bai Qihang's men might shoot at him at any time, endangering Zhu Yeqing's life.
After hearing Chen Ye's answer, Zhao Tuzhi did not continue the topic, but suddenly asked:
"Xiao Ye, I have a question. Do you like the Xiao family girl? Or, do you love her?"
"Um."
Chen Ye nodded according to his heart.
If he had only had a good impression of Xiao Ziyu before and thought it was very comfortable to be with Xiao Ziyu, then since Xiao Ziyu took the initiative to confess his feelings, it left a mark on his heart.
Zhao Tuzhi's pupils shrank slightly, and then he continued to ask:
"So, are you willing to give up your current fiancée Qin Miaoyan for the sake of the Xiao family girl?"
"I don't want to."
Chen Ye hesitated for a moment and then shook his head.
This is also the answer in his heart.
He promised Xiao Ziyu that he would break free from the shackles of the engagement and fly out of the prison of power.
But at the same time, he also promised Qin Miaoyan that he would marry her.
"Xiao Ye, if you like the girl from the Xiao family and are willing to give up your current fiancée for her, I can cancel the engagement between the girl from the Xiao family and Tianming, make you and the girl from the Xiao family get together, and tell them not to make trouble."
Zhao Tuzhi was not surprised by the answer given by Chen Ye. He pondered for a moment and then said again:
"But, since you can't do this, I think you should really stay away from the Xiao family girl! This will be good for both of you!"
"I came to you today mainly for the matter of Zhu Yeqing. We will discuss the matter of Xiao Ziyu later."
Chen Ye said seriously.
Zhao Tuzhi said in a deep voice: "But you have to know that what happened to the Xiao family girl is the cause, and what happened to Zhu Yeqing is the effect. Only when there is a cause, there will be an effect. What's more, whether Zhu Yeqing committed a crime or not, you don't have to say it, and I don't have to say it either. Forget it, the law has the final say.”
"If the law has the final say, then why are they talking to me?"
Chen Ye frowned.
Sun Hongxia teamed up with Xiao Zhiyuan to attack Zhuyeqing, forcing Chen Ye and Xiao Ziyu to draw a clear line. This means that it is not the law that determines Zhuyeqing's fate, but their opinions!
"Zhuyeqing has committed a crime and deserves to be punished by the law. They use this as an excuse to talk to you. This is their problem and I will deal with it seriously!"
When Zhao Tuzhi said this, he made the final decision and said:
"I can't help you with this matter, neither emotionally nor rationally, nor legally."
"I think you misunderstood. I came to you today not to ask for your help, let alone to beg you!"
Chen Ye also expressed his attitude and changed his name to Zhao Tuzhi.
Zhao Tuzhi's expression changed for the first time, and he asked with confusion on his face:
"Then what do you want from me?"
"negotiation!"
Chen Ye spoke slowly, his voice was not loud, but it was like thunder!
…
"PS: Thank you brothers and sisters for supporting the crazy and extremely powerful people in the past year. I wish you all a happy new year, good health, and all your dreams come true!"
