In the ward, Xiaoguo and Daguo had already packed their things, and Grandma Tuolong was standing by their side. She was going to be discharged from the hospital today.
Lu Ming also changed his clothes and was burning the secret code in Liuli's hand.
Liuli would send secret telegrams every day. Even if it was not about military or political affairs, she would still express her respects in a humble manner.
However, this secret message did respond to a question Lu Ming had.
Lu Ming went from playing his own Qing'e to changing his appearance, which reminded him of Long Ye in Wu Anshi.
Similarly, there was once a fake Lord Long, who met with himself after killing Lord Long.
Lu Ming asked Liuli if she knew that there were other talented people who had inherited this kind of disguise technique.
But as expected, Liuli called back and said that she didn't quite understand.
"Young Master, Xueruo met her family from the north yesterday, and she should leave with her family today." Grandma Tuolong said this with some profound meaning.
Lu Ming was a little helpless. Granny Tuolong also thought in the same way as Liuli, believing that all the good things in the world should belong to her.
She had carefully suggested that a rare beauty like Xueruo should have been a maidservant by her master's side. Otherwise, who else in the world would be worthy of her
Besides, it was obvious that it was God's will that sent her to her master.
"Well, I hope she lives a happy life in the future." Lu Ming waved his hand.
After interrogation by Granny Tuolong, it turned out that Xueruo's father was an escort for the escort agency in Anshan Province, a neighboring province in the northwest. Nowadays, the escort agency is in decline, and Xueruo's father is just an ordinary escort, and his family is very poor.
This time, his father followed the escort leader to secretly deliver a treasure to Xin'an. In order to cover up their tracks, the escort leader ordered several escorts to bring family documents and the like, making it appear that they were just ordinary people traveling. Some of the escorts brought their wives, and some brought their children.
Who knew that they were intercepted at Nanping Station, and except for Xueruo, all the others were killed. Fortunately, the people from the Bureau of Secrets at Nanping Station arrived, and the gunmen and robbers fled in a hurry.
Listening to it, I don’t know if it was directed and acted out by Chen Rongfu’s people. Perhaps the truth of the matter was buried forever with the death of Chen Rongfu.
Anyway, Xueruo was seven years old and knew the name of her father's escort company. She also knew where she was from, so Granny Tuolong helped her make the contact.
People from the escort agency came, including Xueruo's relatives, to collect the ashes and take Xueruo away.
During this period, I was working and in the hospital, and Xueruo's affairs were all handled by Grandma Tuolong.
Apart from that night at Huanglou, he had not met Xueruo again.
"Although the little girl is afraid of you and is very young, she is very sensible. She wanted to kowtow to you before leaving. She heard that you were in the hospital and was very worried about you." Grandma Tuolong said from the side.
Lu Ming smiled and said, "I told you not to, why are you still nagging me?"
"Yes." Grandma Tuolong stopped talking, knowing that the matter had been concluded.
Suddenly, there was a burst of hearty laughter, and the door of the ward was pushed open. A fat white man who looked like Maitreya Buddha came in. It was Gao Baoshan.
"Brother, you are being discharged from the hospital today. As your elder brother, I must come to pick you up!" Gao Baoshan came over with a big laugh and said, "If you have any luggage that needs to be taken away, I will symbolically take one too. Are you picking my good brother up from the hospital? In Nanping, my brother has no relatives. I am the only one who doesn't have any relatives."
Lu Ming smiled and said, "No need, Brother Gao, you are too polite."
"What else do we brothers have to say?" Gao Baoshan took a small bag from Xiaoguo's hand, which stunned Gao Baoshan's entourage.
…
Sitting side by side in the back seat of the black car, Gao Baoshan's words made Lu Ming even more stunned, "Brother, please help me, can you help me shoulder the burden of the Commissioner of the Security Bureau?"
Lu Ming looked at him in astonishment. He was really unprepared and had no idea what cards he was playing.
"Alas, the situation is difficult now. What Chen Rongfu did in the Bureau of Secrets is terrible. He wiretapped all my important personnel and persecuted his colleagues. Now he has been convicted. The Bureau of Secrets has become a rat crossing the street that everyone wants to beat. It is about to go bankrupt. There are so many deep-seated problems inside. I think that only by asking a third party, such as you, to take charge of the overall situation, can we shut up many people and reverse the reputation of the Bureau of Secrets. Otherwise, I can only execute all the members of the Bureau of Secrets and close it down. Only then will the world be fine!" Gao Baoshan sighed and patted Lu Ming's leg. "Brother, how about helping me? I will call General Lu and ask for his permission."
Lu Ming smiled and said, "Let's see what General Lu says." He still had some time to think about how to respond.
If Chen Rongfu wanted to manage the Security Bureau himself, what he said was indeed part of the reason.
The Bureau of Secrets is now a cesspool. Many Nanping officials who have hatred towards Chen Rongfu and the secret service chiefs of the Bureau have begun to pounce on them and bite them.
To Gao Baoshan, this organization has become completely useless, especially since he doesn't know how many die-hard supporters of Chen Rongfu there are among them.
In Gao Baoshan's eyes, he is also a member of the Black Mountain military intelligence system. If he manages the Security Bureau himself, he may be able to take the opportunity to understand the layout of the Black Mountain military intelligence system in Nanping.
Moreover, I have handed over the entire Nanping spy system to my Black Mountain allies. So what else do you have in mind that you are worried about me
These thoughts quickly ran through Lu Ming's mind, and he just nodded and responded to Gao Baoshan.
"By the way, brother, don't you keep talking about the need for reform of Nanping's judicial system? I think, based on what you said, we should set up the Procuratorate and you can also be the Chief Prosecutor." Gao Baoshan said with a smile, "Lu Shuai comes from the judicial system and values judiciary the most. I think you are similar, brother. What the superiors like... "After a cough, Gao Baoshan continued: "If I reply to Lu Shuai in this way, is it more likely that Lu Shuai will agree?"
Lu Ming was stunned again. However, how important was the spy system to Gao Baoshan? Now he was going to hand over the whole thing to his so-called allies. What did the prosecutorial system mean to him
I don't know what he was thinking, but he certainly didn't want to surrender and become a vassal of the Montenegrin clan. He probably wanted to risk his life in order to survive.
In Nanping, there has never been a prosecutorial system, and it is not like the Wuan model where the police station is responsible for prosecuting cases.
Instead, all kinds of administrative agencies can send criminals to court for trial. The same goes for the Bureau of Secrets. They will bring the arrested people to court for a formality, and the sentence will basically be decided internally.
The Longbei Province was much more chaotic than his hometown, the Northern Xinjiang Province. Although there were also many warlords in the Northern Xinjiang, the territory was relatively stable and there were fewer fierce battles.
The situation was not so good in Longbei Province, as various generals started wars every few days, so no Western judges were willing to serve there.
Judges at all levels are appointed by local warlords and are basically just figureheads.
"Brother, what do you think?" Gao Baoshan looked at Lu Ming's expression and said, "If you also make more statements to General Lu, I think it will be much more important than my request."
Lu Ming smiled and said, "How could that be? The chairman thinks highly of Gao Shuai."
Gao Baoshan paused for a moment and said with a smile: "Of course, I will never forget the kindness of the Chairman."
Lu Ming's words implicitly put Gao Baoshan in the position of a subordinate, and were also a test of Gao Baoshan to see how he would react.
