Jiang Qing had sharp eyes and saw the caller ID at a glance when Secretary Wang handed the phone to Minister Li. He couldn't help but let out a heavy breath. He lowered his voice and said, "It's Minister Han's call."
"Really?" Xiao Zheng didn't know much about the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but he also understood that Minister Li just couldn't refuse Minister Gong's plea. But given the rank, it seemed that Minister Li was in charge. Therefore, it is difficult to suppress Minister Li's anger just by Minister Gong's intervention.
"Yes. He is the direct leader of Minister Gong. I heard that the relationship with the central government is also very strong." Jiang Qing is from the Dragon Group and can't even figure out the ways in the army system. Not to mention the political arena. So after using it, I don’t dare to make arbitrary evaluations.
Xiao Zheng smiled and nodded, pursed his lips and said, "It seems that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs takes me very seriously."
First it was Minister Gong, then the top leader. It is already the highest standard of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Xiao Zheng thought this, but unknown anger surged in Minister Li's heart. What are you doing? When did the Ministry of Foreign Affairs become the Pacific Police? Do you even have to take care of my housework
"Minister Han." Minister Li answered the phone and greeted him stiffly.
First the deputy department, then the main department. Minister Li was amazed at Xiao Zheng's strong connections in the officialdom, but he was also particularly annoyed.
"Old Li."
Minister Han's very kind voice came from the phone, smiling and saying: "Why are you so unhappy with Mr. Xiao?"
"He came to my house to cause trouble. I had no choice but to do so." Minister Li's attitude was quite polite. The top leaders of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs have always been direct relatives and confidants of the bosses. Although Minister Han is currently on the same level as himself. But once his term is over, it is certain that he will be promoted to vice-state. The political future is bright. But it is very difficult for Minister Li to advance to another level.
"Mr. Xiao is an upstart in the business world. He has made great contributions to the country's market economy. It has also greatly improved the status and image of our private enterprises in the world. If it is not a big misunderstanding, Lao Li, will you sell me a favor?" Minister Han said. After a meal, he said nothing quickly. "I'll treat you to a drink another day."
This so-called drinking basically gave Minister Li a hint.
Moreover, if Li Shikai really decides to join the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Minister Han's operations will be far more powerful than Minister Gong. The future is brighter.
It's a transaction that's not too big or too small.
Logically speaking, the conversation has already reached this point, and Minister Li should not be entangled anymore. But this time he was really angry, and he also had a lot of little thoughts in his mind. So even if Minister Han came forward, he had no intention of giving up.
"Minister Han, this matter has already started. If I stop now, I will lose face. But since you have spoken, I won't embarrass him too much." Minister Li's eyes turned cold and he pursed his lips. "But he must be taught a lesson, otherwise he will really become lawless!"
There was silence on the other side of the phone for a few seconds, and then Minister Han's lukewarm voice came over: "Old Li, are you really not going to show me any favors?"
These words sounded kind, but Minister Li heard it very clearly - Minister Han was going to have a fight with him!
Minister Li's face darkened and he thought to himself: Let's just say goodbye. Anyway, I won’t let Xiao Zheng go!
Click!
Minister Han hung up the phone slightly angrily. Minister Li also handed the phone to Secretary Wang and said with a straight face: "What are you doing? Take him down!"
Jiang Qing was shocked when he heard this. Minister Li didn't even give Minister Han face? Could it be that he really wanted to kill Xiao Zheng
Minister Gong also gave a wry smile and thought to himself: It was originally just a family dispute, but Minister Li pushed the whole matter to the level of a political contest.
Minister Li rejected Minister Han in public. Will Minister Han give up? Since personal dignity no longer matters, Minister Han will definitely take action, and even bring out higher-level bosses to speak.
Xiao Zheng had done the Ministry of Foreign Affairs a great favor. Neither Minister Gong nor Minister Han could just sit idly by and ignore this matter. The first is repayment, and the second is a matter of face. I am a distinguished guest of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. You can do whatever you say. Where can you put your face
The guard camp was about to take action, but Xiao Zheng slowly put down his wine glass and stood up with a relaxed expression. Staring directly at Minister Li: "Minister Li, where do you plan to send me after you capture me?"
After a pause, Xiao Zheng said in front of everyone: "Let me remind you first. I am an instructor of the Dragon Group and a school-level officer. Institutions with insufficient levels will definitely not dare to accept me. Military court? Do you think they will comply? Are you going to deal with me, or will you favor me?"
Minister Li's eyes were filled with anger.
He really didn't expect that dealing with Xiao Zheng would cause such a big disturbance. Even Minister Han came forward to call for a stop. But now he is riding a tiger and can't get off. No matter how hard the bone is, he must chew it down. Otherwise, you will lose all face.
After a brief silence, he took the call from his secretary's cell phone again and called a capable officer under his command: "Hello. Lao Yan. You are going on a mission yourself and come directly to my house -"
"Minister, this-" Lao Yan hesitated, obviously speaking while covering the phone. "I have an emergency meeting here. It only lasted less than five minutes. I may not be able to get out of it for the time being."
Lao Yan is the top leader of the district bureau and a confidant promoted by Minister Li. It stands to reason that as long as the leader gives an order, it is no problem for him to go forward and back. But what Minister Li didn't expect was that the other party was always in love and refused to go out on missions.
"Why is the meeting so urgent?" Minister Li frowned and asked in annoyance.
"This is an emergency meeting held by the headquarters. The department leader personally presided over it, and all district supervisors are present." Lao Yan explained in a low voice. But suddenly I saw the headquarters leaders on the podium giving me a stern look. His scalp immediately became numb and his heart beat like thunder.
Although the Ministry of Public Security is not under vertical management, its finances and personnel are coordinated by the local government. But at the same time, he also accepts the command from the headquarters leadership. Regardless of which one is more important, since the headquarters held an emergency meeting, it was impossible for Lao Yan to refute the head of the headquarters and go do things for Minister Li. Otherwise, even if he has the support of Minister Li, he can keep his position. It will be difficult to get promoted in the police system in the future.
When Minister Li heard this, he immediately understood what was going on.
A meeting held by headquarters leaders
In other words, Jin Shuheng must be involved
It is even possible that this so-called emergency meeting was caused by Jin Shuheng, the second-in-command at the headquarters. The purpose is to cut off Minister Li's retreat.
Well, you, Jin Shuheng, made the first move before you even made any moves? Are you trying to fight with me
Minister Li looked gloomily and glanced at Xiao Zheng, who was calm and composed. He ordered the people in the guard camp to keep an eye on him, then took his mobile phone and walked to the side hall to make a call.
Are you, Jin Shuheng, trying to fight with me
Okay, then let's have a fight!
