In the letter, Zhao Wanxian first warmly congratulated Zhang Zhiwen on his promotion to the Chief Secretary of Youyan, then asked about his current situation and briefly mentioned his colleagues who were the Chief Secretary of Youyan. Finally, as the housekeeper Zhang Zhong said Then invite him to Chen Kee Tea House for tea tomorrow...
Zhang Zhiwen put down the letter and fell into thinking. Before he was transferred to the deputy chief envoy to Hebei and Yu, he served as a third-rank political officer in the Chief Secretary of Youyan, and if he remembered correctly, Zhao Wanxian was at the sixth rank at that time!
Although the two of them were serving as the Chief Secretary of Youyan, they did not have much contact with each other because of their very different official positions. Later, Zhang Zhiwen was transferred to Hebei Province as the Deputy Chief Secretary, and there was no relationship with Zhao Wanxian. connect!
Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen's only impression of Zhao Wanxian now is that when he attended some banquet back then, this man named Zhao seemed to have flattered him!
Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen was very surprised when Zhao Wanxian invited him to have tea, but after thinking about it carefully, he still felt that he should give Zhao Wanxian this face, and he should go to Chenji Tea House to keep the appointment tomorrow!
First of all, although he and Zhao Wanxian had no friendship in the past, they had nothing to do with each other. He and he were now feudal officials, in charge of the people's livelihood and finance of a province. He invited him politely now, and he had no plans for tomorrow, so It’s not easy to refute other people’s face...
Secondly, Zhao Wanxian is now the Marshal's favorite and deeply trusted by the Marshal. If it weren't for the objections of Gu Shangshu of the Ministry of Personnel and others, Youyan's chief envoy would not be Zhang, but Zhao Wanxian. thing!
So if you don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face, Zhao Wanxian can't offend him, so it's best not to offend him!
The third point is that if I want to achieve the development targets set by the commander-in-chief, I need to maintain close cooperation with the surrounding areas, and Jiyu, where Zhao Wanxian is about to take office, is the area with the best development around Youyan!
So if possible, Zhang Zhiwen hopes to reach an agreement with Zhao Wanxian on some issues related to economic development and strive for win-win cooperation!
Based on the above three points, Zhang Zhiwen decided to go to Chen Kee Teahouse to meet Zhao Wanxian tomorrow. Although Zhao Wanxian said in the letter that he invited him to the teahouse to meet him to reminisce about old times, Zhang Zhiwen knew very well that he and Zhao Wanxian had no comradeship at all!
Therefore, reminiscing about old times is obviously just an excuse. Although Zhao Wanxian did not write down the real purpose of his meeting in the letter, Zhang Zhiwen could guess it to some extent!
If he guessed correctly, Zhao Wanxian might want to know about Ji Yu's situation from him!
Zhang Zhiwen has been dormant in Hebei and Henan for several years. He knows very well that although the current development situation of Hebei and Henan is very good, and various policies that benefit the people are being steadily advanced, there are also some internal problems and they are not perfect!
Zhang Zhiwen guessed that Ye Mingsheng not only had the evidence that he was the only one to receive red envelopes, but also the evidence of many people in Hebei Province. The commander-in-chief should have grasped it, but the commander-in-chief just ignored it... ·············
After all, an investigation will inevitably cause turmoil and have some negative impact on the development of Hebei and Henan. At present, the imperial court's finances are relatively dependent on Hebei and Henan!
Therefore, in order to stabilize the situation, the commander-in-chief did not make a sweeping decision, but this does not mean that the commander-in-chief will choose to tolerate it!
Zhang Zhiwen guessed that this time Zhao Wanxian went to Hebei and Yu to replace Murong Yuliang as the chief envoy, and he was probably shouldering the political mission assigned by the commander-in-chief to rectify the officialdom in Hebei and Yu!
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but flash a cold light in his eyes. He has actually done two main tasks in Hebei and Henan over the years. The first task is to implement the New Deal, develop the Hebei and Henan economy, and improve the living standards of the people in Hebei and Henan. The second task is Fight against some local factions in Hebei and Yu!
After Gao Zongchang surrendered, the Fengwu Army made some compromises in order to stabilize Hebei Province as soon as possible and implement the New Deal to develop the economy. They only sent Zhang Zhiwen as deputy chief envoy and chose to appoint Wang Ke as chief envoy!
As an airborne chief envoy, Zhang Zhiwen was inevitably squeezed out by the local faction. Zhang Zhiwen had no choice but to resort to
The local Fengwu Army garrison was used to ensure the implementation of the New Deal in Hebei Province, but this also led to the intensification of conflicts between Zhang Zhiwen and the local faction!
Later, the Hebei and Yu corruption case broke out. The reason why Murong Hui was able to quickly investigate the truth of the case and punish the criminals was that Zhang Zhiwen, then deputy chief envoy, also played an indispensable role... ················
At that time, Zhang Zhiwen was very proud. He believed that with the merits of this case, he could be promoted directly to the Chief Envoy of Hebei and Henan Province, become the core of the power of the Fengwu Army, and become a confidant of the Fengwu Army and the Marshal!
But what he never expected later was that Ye Mingsheng did not correct him, but transferred Murong Yuliang, who was the Chief Envoy of Liaoyang at the time, to Hebei and Henan as the Chief Envoy, while he continued to serve as the Deputy Chief Envoy of Hebei and Yu!
At that time, Zhang Zhiwen was still very confused, why did the commander do this? Was it because his performance was not good enough?
Because of this matter, Zhang Zhiwen was frustrated for a while, but later, after seeing Murong Yuliang's management of Jiyu, Zhang Zhiwen slowly understood Ye Mingsheng's intentions!
It was not because of his poor performance that he did not serve as the chief envoy to Hebei and Henan Province, but precisely because Zhang Zhiwen performed so well that he did not serve as the chief envoy to Hebei and Henan!
Although Zhang Zhiwen, with the help of Murong Hui, overthrew Wang Ke, the leader of the local faction, and the official chief envoy investigated the corruption case, he also completely offended the local officials in Jiyu at the time, and the relationship between the two sides The conflicts between the two became completely irreconcilable, and the local officials in Jiyu hated him to death!
Although Ye Mingsheng transferred some officials from Youyan and Liaoyang to Hebei and Henan at that time, most of the officials in Hebei and Henan were local people. Therefore, if Zhang Zhiwen became the chief envoy, due to the conflict between him and the local faction, It is difficult to advance the work of the Chief Secretary·······················
In the environment of seeking stability at that time, it was impossible for Ye Mingsheng to carry out a major change of officials in Jiyu, so he could only sacrifice Zhang Zhiwen!
As for Murong Yuliang, he came from the Murong family, the top wealthy family in the Great Zhou Dynasty. His father held an important position in Hebei and Henan back then and had many connections in Hebei and Henan. Therefore, letting him serve as the chief envoy can unite some people to carry out work more conveniently!
Although he understood Ye Mingsheng's good intentions, it was already too late by that time. Zhang Zhiwen could only continue to lie dormant in Hebei and Henan, and continued to be ostracized by local parties. This also led to Zhang Zhiwen also hating some local figures in Hebei and Henan. It goes to the bone!
Thinking of this, Zhang Zhiwen couldn't help but silently calculate in his heart. If things were really as he thought, Zhao Wanxian went to Jiyu with the mission of being a commander-in-chief!
Then he, Zhang Zhiwen, was very happy to give Zhao Wanxian a knife, just like when he used Murong Hui's hand to bring down Wang Ke, the leader of the local faction, and made the official chief minister die of hatred!
After all, the people who squeezed out Zhang Zhiwen are now in high positions in Jiyu, and their butts are dirtier than the last. As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, even though Zhang Zhiwen can't benefit from the misfortune of these people. , but as long as he sees these people being unlucky, Zhang Zhiwen will be happy!
If Zhao Wanxian can fight those few people down, then Zhang Zhiwen will definitely set off a few firecrackers to celebrate...

Yijing, Changshan Medical Center
Because she was concerned about the influence, after giving birth to her sweetheart, Pei Zhixiu deliberately closed the Changshan Medical Clinic, and then settled down to be her Mrs. Pei in Ye Mansion.
However, with Ye Mingsheng's support and encouragement, Pei Zhixiu decided to continue her career at Changshan Medical Clinic. She hoped that by treating diseases and saving people, she would accumulate virtues for Ye Mingsheng and Jingxuan, and reduce some of the evil obstacles she had committed in her youth.
At this time, Pei Zhixiu in the medical center carefully checked the pulse of the young woman in front of him, and immediately showed a smile and said to the woman in front of him:
"Congratulations on becoming a mother!"
As soon as these words came out, the young woman in front of me,
There was also a look of surprise on his face, but he still said in disbelief:
"Dr. Pei, is this true? Am I really pregnant?"
Pei Jixiu smiled and nodded and said:
"It's true! The baby is about three months old now. I will prescribe a pair of anti-fetal medicines for you. You can boil them when you go back and take them!"
"Thank you, Dr. Pei!"
After seeing off the happy young woman, an old woman with a crutch and a stooped body walked into the hospital. The old woman looked about sixty or seventy years old, and she looked very senile!
As the old woman walked into the room, Xiao Huan on the side also followed the rules of the medical clinic and took care of the patient's privacy and closed the door. Then he subconsciously wanted to help the old woman and sit on the chair in the medical clinic... ···············
However, before Xiaohuan could touch the old woman, Pei Zhixiu's cold voice came to her ears.
"Don't touch her!"
The voice of his wife made Xiaohuan instinctively stop what he was doing. Then looking at the cold-looking wife in front of him, Xiaohuan was a little at a loss!
At this moment, Pei Zhixiu stared at the old woman and ordered Xiaohuan:
"Get out! Close the door! The rest is none of your business!"
Although she didn't know what happened, Xiaohuan quickly left the room according to Pei Zhixiu's order.
When only he and the old woman were left in the room, Pei Zhixiu said in a deep voice:
"This is not the place you should be!"
The old woman slowly spoke:
"This is not the place you should stay! Piaoxu!"
Hearing the name "Piaoxu", Pei Zhixiu's eyes flashed with a cold light and said coldly:
"Ninja Piaoxu is dead!"
The old woman slowly raised her head, looked at Pei Zhixiu in front of her and said calmly:
"But you're still alive!"
"I'm afraid you are an old fool! If you leave now, you can still keep your life!"
Listening to Pei Zhixiu's undisguised murderous intent, the old woman said calmly:
"Don't forget that you are from Dongdao! The blood of Dongdao flows through your body. This is a fact that you can never change!"
"Ye Mingsheng is plunging the entire East Island into the flames of war, and countless people are being swallowed up by the flames of war. Do you want to see this, Mori E.············ ········》
When these words came out, Pei Jixiu's expression was slightly moved, but soon Pei Jixiu said coldly:
"Both the ninja Piaoxu and Akiyama Morie are dead, now I am Bae Ji-soo!"
The old woman still preached calmly:
"You can change your name, but you can't change your heart or your soul!"
"The head of the family has made a promise to you. As long as you kill Ye Mingsheng and dedicate his head to him, the head of the family will recognize you as his daughter, give you the surname of Muto, and give you the title of mother!"
"Morie, isn't this what you want most?"
Pei Zhixiu laughed angrily when he heard this. He didn't bother to talk to the old woman in front of him anymore, and just slapped her with her palm.
This palm seemed to be indifferent, but the old woman, a jounin from Koga, felt suffocating pressure and the threat of death. The old woman instinctively wanted to avoid it. But he found that he had nowhere to escape, so he had no choice but to use the crutches in his hands to face him.
However, in the next second, the crutch made of fine steel was completely twisted and deformed, and the old woman was also knocked into the wall and vomited blood... ······
Looking at the old woman lying on the ground coughing up blood, Pei Zhixiu's eyes flashed with disdain, and he said sarcastically:
"Obasan, don't forget that I defeated you when I was eighteen years old. Don't you think you still want to drag me to death with you now?
Ridiculous? "
Listening to Pei Zhixiu's words, the old woman also flashed a look of despair in her old eyes, and asked Pei Zhixiu in disbelief:
"Have you reached that point?"
Pei Zhixiu said calmly after hearing this:
"What do you think, Obasan?"
The old woman's expression became even more desperate when she heard this, but she immediately spoke very viciously:
"You traitor, you are the sinner of Dongdao. You will not end well. Your two children will die with you!"
Hearing that the old woman mentioned her two children, Pei Zhixiu's expression suddenly turned cold, and then a strong wind passed through the old lady's abdomen with a flick of her finger!
'Tell me who else came with you? You don’t want to try the tricks you gave me back then!
The old woman, who was suffering from severe abdominal pain, had a crazy smile on her face and shouted:
"Morie, you will pay the price!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Koga jounin gritted his teeth, and within a few seconds he completely lost his life...
