Wen Jinglong sighed and was silent for a moment. After Li Siyuan went to the State Council, he left Li's people in many key positions, which Wen Jinglong was quite wary of. But now Huainan's economy really cannot do without the Li faction, so Wen Jinglong can only control it flexibly.
Song Wendi had already said this. If Wen Jinglong still didn't give her face, then the superficial peace would be broken. And if Wen Jinglong was willing to help, then Song Wendi would owe him a favor.
Wen Jinglong needs this favor from Song Wendi.
Wen Jinglong was about to speak when his phone suddenly rang. He reached out and pressed something in the air, signaling Song Wendi to be patient. Then he answered the phone. His secretary reported, "Boss, we just got the news that someone from the central government is here."
Wen Jinglong said "Oh" and asked in confusion: "Which department of the central government? What is the level of the person coming?"
The secretary reported briefly: "The State Council Research Office, a ministerial-level leader."
"Why did you come here without saying hello? You should contact the provincial party committee office immediately and prepare for the reception." Wen Jinglong hung up the phone, sighed, and said to Song Wendi, "Let's postpone Fang Zhicheng's matter for now. Someone from the State Council is coming. I will go to receive him first. Don't worry. Since you trust Fang Zhicheng so much and vouch for him, I will ask the Supervision Office to release him as soon as possible."
Since Wen Jinglong said so, Song Wendi was relieved. He was about to leave when Wen Jinglong stopped Song Wendi and said, "Someone is coming from the State Council Research Office. Come with me to receive him."
According to normal reception principles, in order to show solemnity, the provincial party committee standing committee should be arranged to accompany the reception of the central ministerial-level guests. After going downstairs, Wen Jinglong met Su Qing, director of the State Council Research Office, and said in surprise: "Director Su, why did you suddenly come to Huainan without notifying us in advance?"
Su Qing waved his hand and said, "I am not visiting you for official business this time, but for personal matters."
Wen Jinglong showed a puzzled look on his face, wondering what big event could have alarmed Su Qing to rush all the way from Yanjing to Huainan
Wen Jinglong knew that since it was a private matter, there was no need to discuss it in the conference room, so he smiled and said, "How about going to my office for a cup of tea?"
Su Qing nodded and said, "Sorry to bother you then."
Song Wendi knew that since they were going to talk about private matters, he might not be needed. He walked on the right side of Wen Jinglong and accompanied him to the door of Wen Jinglong's office. Just as he was about to leave, Su Qing glanced at him and whispered a few words into Wen Jinglong's ear. Wen Jinglong looked very surprised, nodded, and said, "Wendi, come into my office too."
Song Wendi was also surprised, obviously not understanding why Su Qing wanted him to participate in her private affairs. Song Wendi actually didn't know Su Qing at all, but he had read her articles in some party publications and knew her nickname of Iron Lady. He was quite surprised that Su Qing knew him.
After reaching the vice-ministerial level, one will slowly come into contact with the top forces in China. The family behind Su Qing is the Su family. Although it has been slightly declining in recent years, a lean camel is still bigger than a horse, and it is still a political force that cannot be underestimated in the Republic.
Song Wendi also recently learned that her mentor Li Siyuan received Su Qing's support and was therefore able to gain a firm foothold in the State Council.
Su Qing sat on the sofa. The secretary brought in three cups of tea. After the secretary left, Su Qing said crisply, "Secretary Wen, I came to see you today to ask for a favor."
Wen Jinglong was very surprised and said with a smile: "Director Su, if you have any request, just tell me directly. Why do you have to speak so unfamiliarly?"
Su Qing smiled bitterly and said, "Then I'll just say it directly. Yesterday I got the news that my good-for-nothing son was isolated and investigated by the Huainan Provincial Supervision Office, so I personally took an early flight to rush here today. I just hope that Secretary Wen can show some mercy."
Wen Jinglong widened his eyes and glanced at Song Wendi. He also saw surprise in Song Wendi's eyes.
They reacted quickly and immediately linked the purpose of Su Qing's trip with Fang Zhicheng.
However, this matter is a bit strange. Isn’t the Iron Lady Su Qing single
How could she have a son
If she really has a son, it means he is her illegitimate child!
This is really shocking news!
Chapter 0663 Let him go, this is an order
Song Wendi finally couldn't help it, and coughed softly, saying: "Minister Su, Fang Zhicheng used to be my secretary. As far as I know, his mother died a few years ago, so he is an orphan now, and I haven't heard of his mother..."
Su Qing glanced at Song Wendi and said, "Comrade Wendi, I know he is your secretary, so I asked you to be present. I cannot explain the specific reason to you. However, you should believe me. If this is not true, there is no need for me to joke about this!"
Song Wendi sighed secretly. Unless Su Qing was crazy, how could she recognize Fang Zhicheng as her son? So Su Qing might really be Fang Zhicheng's mother. Song Wendi didn't expect that Fang Zhicheng had such a big secret. This secret was enough to affect her future life.
Su Qing has always been a celibate person. If this matter spreads, it will have a huge impact on her personal image. Unless she is crazy, she will not joke about this.
However, with Su Qing's appearance, Song Wendi was not so anxious. What would Wen Jinglong do with Su Qing, the most promising female official, the "Iron Lady"
Song Wendi's mood turned from gloomy to sunny, and he even felt like watching a good show.
Things will not end so well. Even if Wen Jinglong does not give Su Qing any face, he still has to show some respect to the Su family behind them. After all, there are only a handful of founding fathers left. As long as the big man who was once famous in Shaanxi and Gansu is still alive, the Su family's position will be solid.
Moreover, judging from the changes at the national level after a period of silence, the Su family has been making frequent moves, and the military giant Ning family has been echoing the Su family, showing signs of resurgence.
As one of the core figures of the northern faction, Wen Jinglong not only had to focus on Huainan, but also had to consider issues from a national strategic perspective.
Wen Jinglong sighed softly. He could hear the tenderness of a mother in Su Qing's tone. Su Qing had no reason to lie about this matter. He clearly realized that Su Qing might really be Fang Zhicheng's mother.
Now the matter has become a big deal. If the Supervisory Office does not release the person immediately, or if Fang Zhicheng is slightly injured, I am afraid that the matter will become a big deal.
The Su family's camp is definitely not limited to Shanzhou Province. Old Master Su once entered the sequence of the Standing Committee of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, and his disciples are spread across several central departments and many provinces across the country. If the Su family is dissatisfied, retaliation will be given in the central government or other northern provinces where the faction is weaker, which may lead to an all-out war between the two factions.
Moreover, from the perspective of the national situation, the northern faction has been trying to win over several neutral factions, including the Su faction. After all, the Tang faction is pressing forward step by step, and the northern faction is not having an easy time.
Judging from the current national family rankings, although the Su family has fallen behind, it is definitely in the first tier. The Yuzhou Jin family is still one level behind the Su family.
Wen Jinglong stood up and said, "I'll call now and ask the Supervisory Office to release him."
In less than half a minute, Wen Jinglong decisively gave the answer.
Song Wendi sighed secretly, and a bitter smile with mixed feelings appeared on the corner of his mouth. In the final analysis, his face was still a little bit worse. Song Wendi not only asked Bu Yiren and Wen Jinglong to plead for mercy, but also came to block Wen Jinglong in person early in the morning, but in the end he only got a promise from Wen Jinglong.
Su Qing's appearance prompted Wen Jinglong to take immediate action, and the problem was soon solved.
