There was silence in the car for a moment. I don't know how long it took before I heard Li Lingqing laugh, with an unknown meaning:
"Let Ono accompany you?"
Li Muye is not an official in the military and political circles, and even if he is an arms dealer, he will not be a big handle for his opponents. However, Li Lingqing's important position as an official cannot be ambiguous. Now that she and Baizhu are talking here, they are surrounded by their own people, even in the future Baizhu's confession could only be regarded as "biting randomly" without any concrete evidence.
This secret conversation was with the intention of killing Baizhu after using it. But now such a request... Li Muye represents the Li family. If he really stirs up this troubled situation, even if he just goes without showing his face, he is one of the masterminds. A man as shrewd as Bai Shu would definitely leave some fatal evidence behind.
"This is a matter between the two of us. Why do we ask Xiaoye to get involved?" Li Lingqing clearly distinguished her sister and brother at this time, which was completely different from the attitude she had when she asked Li Muye to contact Baizhu.
"This is not a matter between 'us'," Bai Zhu said slowly and clearly, not talking to her at all, "This is a matter between [Dis] and the Li family. Once exposed, no one can escape."
Li Lingqing looked cold.
"But lieutenant colonel, don't worry. Since the two parties are in a cooperative relationship, we are all on the same boat. The second young master and I are both very skilled. As long as the lieutenant colonel can lure the only son of the Xi family out, I will have a way to lure him away again." The guards will not cause too much limelight."
Give me a sweet date with a slap in the face, and then Bai Qi quickly returned to normal and said calmly:
"I'm afraid the two families will have to cooperate more after the promotion meeting. After all, there are many connections and many ways. If the lieutenant colonel can be in charge of the affairs in the city, the arms issue will be much easier."
This is to remind Li Lingqing that before she gets the power she wants, [Dis] is her indispensable helper. If she really falls out, who knows what trouble will happen.
Anyone who can become a high official is not stupid.
Li Lingqing's few traces of intimacy disappeared and he said coldly:
"That's fine, Xiaoye will take care of me more and be more sincere, so let's do it.
"I hope Boss Bai will be careful in everything. You must know that the best opportunity to leave the only son of the Xi family alone is in the promotion ceremony. Don't miss the opportunity before it comes. If you miss it, you and I will be in danger, and it will alert the snake, making it difficult to succeed."
…
"So what do you mean by this? Are you willing to cut yourself off and dare to pull down the second young master?"
"If the Second Young Master thinks so, there's nothing I can do about it."
Wearing black masks, Bai Shu and Li Muye stood side by side on the balcony of a small hotel building, speaking in a low voice.
The roar of the cannon salute after the promotion ceremony started made people tremble, and the streets were filled with colorful flash strips blown by the wind.
Bai Lingyu didn't like these superficial efforts. He felt that it was a waste of manpower and money, and it would be better to spend it directly where it is used. However, this time the promotion meeting was more grand and brilliant than before, with a full ninety-nine gun salute and musical instruments. The sound of the sonata can be heard from several streets away.
The peak period of pollution has just passed and the moderation period is approaching. It is a critical moment when people need to be stabilized. A promotion conference to promote and commend heroes is most suitable. These "superficial efforts" are a kind of psychological hint to appease people and cannot be avoided.
Imagine that a major promotion ceremony is held in a shabby and poor manner. What will the residents of the city think?
——It’s over. The empire doesn’t have the money to do this, so I’m afraid it’s going to be over.
In addition to being disappointed, the mood will definitely not improve, so the effect of deliberately trying to calm people's hearts and stabilize public opinion in the outer city will be greatly reduced. It's all about elegance, and the heroes who have been promoted and commended are also about it when they patrol the city.
The heroes who received the commendation greeted the residents along the streets in the motorcade that patrolled the city. The officials also specially distributed flowers to the residents, allowing them to throw flowers and even precious fruits when the motorcade passed by.
Lively cheers and choir singing merged into a warm ocean, and the ashes of some soldiers who had made additional meritorious deeds also enjoyed the honor along with the convoy and enjoyed the sincere applause and praise of the guardians. No matter what the policy is or what the current situation is, the army has withstood the violent storms for the life of this city and supported a place of breathing space under the red moon of the apocalypse.
Some bouquets were thrown into the arms of the convoy soldiers from upstairs. Bai Shu looked at this scene and returned to her original self in a trance. She was once surrounded by joy and laughter. Her love was sincere and her gratitude came from the heart. She accepted it. Flowers are thrown from all directions, and I feel that all the fatigue, pain and blood are meaningful and have faith.
This recognition is Baizhu's most cherished award.
It's a pity that I probably won't have the chance to enjoy it in this life.
A bouquet accidentally fell from the hands of the people upstairs and fell to the balcony in front of Bai Zhu. You could reach it with your fingers.
Bai Shu pulled away from his brief absence and looked down at the fallen flowers. When he was about to pick them up, he heard Li Muye's reminder:
"It's drawn out."
Bai Shu looked up and saw someone getting out of the car of the Speaker of Parliament. He was immediately surrounded by bodyguards and left the motorcade in which the senior officials were riding. This entry method and sequence was Li Lingqing's handiwork, which was to force Xi He, who couldn't stand the loud noise and the lack of ventilation in the car, to get out of the car.
"This kid has both asthma and heart disease. He is very fragile. He knows that he can't stand the sound of the salute and the noise is too loud. He will definitely get off the bus midway - hypocritical."
Li Muye sneered, turned around and said, "We should go."
Bai Shu said "hmm", and finally followed downstairs without being stained by the bunch of fallen flowers.
There are alleys extending in all directions along the street. Walking in, you can't see anyone wandering around because of the promotion meeting. The filth overflowing from the sewer makes people's noses hurt. After days of cloudy days, it will be sunny. After the snow melts, there is stagnant water everywhere.
Sure enough, as Bai Shu once said, there are big problems with the infrastructure in the outer city. Even if the army is mobilized to rush for time to repair it, there are still many things that cannot be taken care of. Just talking about the drainage system of each street is enough to give people a headache.
"But I'm still curious, how did you convince my eldest sister to let me follow you?"
Anyway, he hasn't caught up with anyone yet. Li Muye was puzzled and continued the topic just now.
"Second Young Master, why don't you ask the lieutenant colonel... ah no, he will be the colonel in an hour, so he would rather ask me from afar," Bai Shu said with all his strength to block the inquiry, "If Colonel Li feels it is not appropriate to say this, then I will be the first to say it. Wouldn’t it ruin Colonel Li’s business?”
Even if something can go wrong, the shield can be easily grasped.
Li Mu sneered in his ambition, and suddenly remembered that when Li Lingqing dressed up to attend the promotion ceremony this morning, he hit him with a sentence with unknown meaning:
[That person named Bai, please be careful when working with him. When the time is right, this child can be killed. 】
