Wang Huan's face remained uncertain for a long time as he thought about it. They all think Qin Fei is a good person and honest. Moreover, the hybrid rice planting plan this time is a national plan, so no matter how stupid Qin Fei is, he will not make mistakes on this.
And Qin Fei didn't say what the specific matter was, but only said it was because of a small oversight.
Thinking about it, he must have done something that dissatisfied Li Zhen, or offended Li Zhen.
'Snapped'
Wang Huan slapped the table, his face turned pale: "It's too much. Why are you killing officials of our country's government at will? Even if Li Zhen is in a high position, he can't mess around. Prime Minister Xun is still in Xizhou. He didn't say anything, why should he?"
"Governor, what should we do now?"
"Send a telegram to Qin Fei and ask him to tell Li Zhen: Governor Wangzhou said that there are people under the sword, please wait to investigate the truth of the incident. Then immediately prepare a car and go to Xiping County. By the way, send a telegram to Prime Minister Xun, too. Explain this."
As soon as he finished speaking, before the secretary left, the telegraph operator ran into the office with an anxious look on his face: "There is a telegram, Prime Minister Xun is calling."
Wang Huan's eyelids twitched and he felt bad. Could it be that the evil Li Zhen complained first? No, what kind of status does Li Zhen have? Even if he wants to deal with an official, he still has that right. Although he has exceeded his authority, absolutely no one dares to say anything. It's not like he complained to Xun Shifei.
Although Wang Huan was very unhappy with Li Zhen at the moment, he knew that Li Zhen was definitely not the one who complained. Besides... Li Zhen complained to Xun Shifei
"read."
"In Xizhou, all officials above the county level, regardless of their position, come to Xiping County at 7 o'clock this afternoon to report. Those who are late will be punished as 'the crime of forming a party for personal gain and resisting the national government'. Those who do not come will be punished as 'the crime of resisting the national government and being reactionary'." National policy crimes will be punished on the spot. Complete."
'hiss'
Wang Huan and his secretary all gasped.
Looking at this concise telegram, Wang Huan felt that the hairs all over his body stood up suddenly, and a cool air rushed from the soles of his feet to the Tianling Cap instantly. Cold sweat soaked my whole body.
After being silent for more than ten seconds, Wang Huan trembled all over and shouted hysterically like crazy: "Prepare the car! Prepare the car! Prepare the car!"
“…”
At the same time, all officials in Xizhou County and above received such news.
In an instant, the entire Xizhou was in chaos. All the officials were scared out of their wits. This telegram was so terrible and terrifying. Those who are late will be punished for the crime of resisting the national government, and that is death. Those who fail to do so will be punished for the crimes of resisting the national government and reactionary national policies, and will be punished on the spot.
Not arriving, being late, everyone will die.
This serious incident has not happened since the founding of New Kyushu. Such an order has not been heard of since the founding of the People's Republic of China.
In a border county, the county guard roared with red eyes: "Ready your horses. Hurry, prepare your horses."
"County magistrate, how many people will you bring?"
"Just bring a bastard and the secretary with me. Bring eight horses and change the rides."
"yes!"
“…”
A certain county.
"It's over. What trouble did Xiping County get into?"
"No, no, did Qin Fei from Xiping County break the sky?"
"It's already 12 o'clock at noon. We still have seven hours to reach Xiping County. If we can't get there, we will be doomed."
"Oh, I'm so anxious. We are the furthest away from Xiping County, and it would take us a day to get there if we travel on a regular basis. We are only given seven hours today. What if we are late during these seven hours?"
"Never mind. Fortunately, Xiping County is in the center of Xizhou, and there is no one to the east or the other to the west. This is already a blessing among misfortunes."
"The situation is going to change, and the entire officialdom of Xizhou is going to change. I bet that someone will die today."
"Is this Qin Fei stupid? How big a crime has he committed? It broke the sky. What on earth did he commit that made officials from all over the state rush to Xiping County within seven hours?"
"Is it possible that it has nothing to do with Qin Fei? Maybe Prime Minister Xun just happens to be in Xiping County, so we should call him nearby."
"It makes sense. Otherwise, how could Qin Fei have such great ability to change the sky in Xizhou?"
"Speaking of which, I envy Qin Fei, who can be an official nearby. He doesn't have to travel, and he is the princess of Xiping County. It's not good for us. It's so far away, and the chariot hasn't come down yet, so we have to ride a horse. Alas, after a day of marching in such a hurry, my crotch will be blistered."
“…”
at the same time.
In a convoy of fifty cars.
In a bulletproof car made of thickened steel plates, Xun Shifei's face was covered with frost, and his eyes were filled with cold murderous intent.
Passing by a rice field, I saw the civil servants in the rice field enthusiastically helping the people to work and cultivate wasteland. I saw happy smiles on their faces. They are good hard-working cadres.
"Illusions, illusions, all are illusions."
"You, the grassroots cadres of Xizhou, and all the people in Xizhou, almost cost me, Xun Shifei, his life, and almost cost the lives of the people of Xizhou."
"Well, I thought that I was already very diligent by running around and setting an example to encourage grassroots cadres to help the people. The creation of wealth in Xizhou was a foregone conclusion. Who would have thought, who would have thought, that I would be like a fool and be A group of grassroots cadres were fooling around. They were almost killed in Xizhou by a group of fledgling fools."
Xun Shifei shuddered all over when he thought about it.
no doubt.
If such a result really occurs during the autumn harvest, Xun Shifei will not be able to leave Xizhou.
Du Taiping will be dragged into the water, but the parties behind Du Taiping will definitely try to ensure that Du Taiping puts all the blame on themselves, and do their best to suppress themselves and protect Du Taiping. After pressure from public opinion, Xun Shifei could not even leave Xizhou alive.
Many people only thought that the trip to Xizhou was a national plan. In fact, for Xun Shifei, it was a matter of victory or defeat, as well as life and death.
He successfully walked out from here and was listed on the next emperor's list.
If he fails here, his position as prime minister will not be guaranteed, a large number of his followers will be killed, and he may even die.
Officials in Xizhou thought that if crops could not be grown, it must be a rice problem.
Big mistake, the country is not a fool, and the people in the country are not fools.
Not to mention that all hybrid rice experiments were successful. Shan said that when the time came, an investigation found that everything planted by civil servants died, while everything planted by ordinary people survived. The truth came out in broad daylight.
Even if Xizhou officials want to rely on the Kyushu Academy of Sciences, it is impossible. Unless you are playing some trick, unless you are playing some conspiracy.
But they are too naive. Who dares to play tricks on the Kyushu Academy of Sciences? Grassroots officials just feel that Li Zhen has a high status and great prestige. But only officials like Xun Shifei, who have reached heaven's hearing, will know how terrifying Li Zhen's power is.
Taking a deep breath, Xun Shifei felt dizzy and kept mumbling:
"You are going to die, you are going to die. Are you deceiving the country and the people like this?"
