silence.

Li Huacheng fell completely silent.

He looked at Hua Zhengyang and said nothing for a long time.

He knew who Hua Zhengyang was, so he knew why Hua Zhengyang didn't see him without asking the reason.

Chen Fangqing did not appear in Yinlonghai until the morning, which meant that after not seeing Hua Zhengyang, Chen Fangqing went to find someone else.

Who to look for?

Who else can I turn to?

The cabinet now has a top-level structure with one chief and three deputies. After this election, Chen Fangqing will not stay, and two of the three deputy prime ministers will also step down. Hua Zhengyang has not met with Chen Fangqing, so Chen Fangqing must meet with him.

There is only one left.

Vice Minister Wu Zhengmin.

Li Huacheng put down the bun in his hand and said softly: "He went to Comrade Zhengmin's place last night?"

Hua Zhengyang also thought about this problem.

His face changed and became a little ugly.

"Zhengyang, you are confused."

Li Huacheng shook his head with some disappointment: "No matter what happens, there will always be a boundary between you and him, but why bother..."

Halfway through his words, he shook his head: "What are you worried about?"

Hua Zhengyang became increasingly embarrassed and said nothing.

After being silent for a while, his expression suddenly changed slightly, and he said softly: "President, he went to see Vice Minister Wu Zhengmin, did he..."

"You."

Li Huacheng shook his head slightly: "You don't need to worry about this. He is a bit old. In this election, the prime minister has the support of the new group. It will not threaten you, and the Prime Minister will not choose to support him."

He doesn't have that position either. However, I think since they have met, this meeting must have some meaning."

"I was not worried about Vice Prime Minister Wu in the first place."

Hua Zhengyang smiled bitterly and said.

Li Huacheng's expression remained calm, and he said quietly: "If he chooses to support Wen Siyuan, he should go to Wang Qingyun and Ji Wenwen, or go to Ye Dongsheng, and he should not go to Wu Zhengmin."

Hua Zhengyang thought for a while and his expression softened a little.

He took a sip of the soy milk, hesitated for a moment, and said softly: "Should I go over for a visit now?"

Li Huacheng glanced at him and nodded: "I always have to go, but now..."

He shook his head: "He should have rested. In the afternoon, you can go over and have a look. You don't need to explain anything. Just go by and it will be fine."

Hua Zhengyang felt slightly reassured and nodded with a smile.

In the Blue and White Hall that the two of them had never seen, Chen Fangqing did not rest, but he also did not work.

He did not return to his office, but entered the backyard of Qinghua Hall and sat down on his bed.

He just sat like this, silent, with his eyes open, looking blankly at the dim light gradually lighting up outside the window through the opened curtains.

He began to recall his seventy-one years of life.

He was born into a not-so-prominent family from the north, but he grew up in the south. When he was just born, his father was the deputy director of a small county in the south, at the deputy section level, not big, but

I still have some power in my hands.

Therefore, Chen Fangqing's childhood was very stable, with no displacement, no bitterness, and no bullying.

When he was a boy, his father, who was very enterprising but also tried his best to protect the family, became a director of that small county. His rank was from deputy section to deputy department. Chen Fangqing walked out of the county and was admitted to their city with his own grades.

The best high school in China.

At that time and age, a deputy county-level father was obviously not an identity worthy of showing off in the minds of young people who were young and carefree. Chen Fangqing never showed off, nor did he seem to be rebellious. He still feels that he is most fortunate to have met him in junior high school.

He had a few teachers who were the best and understood him the most, so that he always maintained excellent grades far ahead of others in the three years of middle school.

During high school, Chen Fangqing's father was transferred from the county to the city as deputy mayor, and reluctantly became a city-level director. It looked like a promotion, but in fact it was the result of compromise after losing the competition.

Chen Fangqing was admitted to the key high school in their province and left that city.

My father and mother spent all their family savings to buy a house in a city where housing prices were ridiculously high because of education. My mother also moved there, just to take care of him while studying.

Learn to grow.

My father's career did not make any progress during high school.

When he graduated from high school, he was admitted to one of the best universities in Central Continent with excellent results.

His father was already in semi-retirement due to severe liver disease at the time. In his memory, his father had a weathered face and gray temples. He had been struggling in his career for most of his life. Chen Fangqing seemed to have never seen him in high spirits.

All he saw was his father's increasingly haggard and rickety figure.

Chen Fangqing was nineteen years old that year.

On the day she received her university admission notice, Chen Fangqing vowed in her heart that she would buy her parents a house in Beihai after graduation so that they could live their whole lives in the best environment.

He applied for Zhongzhou Beihai University.

Yes, Beihai University.

Beihai Wangshi, Beihai in Beihai Province.

Perhaps influenced by his father, Chen Fangqing has decided his future path since high school. He wants to follow his father's path, reach a high position, and use his thoughts to change many people.

matter.

So he chose Beihai University.

This is one of the best universities in Central Continent. It may not be as popular as Huaqing University and Youzhou University. In terms of international rankings, Youzhou University is slightly higher than Beihai University. But in the political field, even in the entire Central Continent,

, and there is no other university that can compete with Beihai University. Beihai University’s philosophy focuses on thought and humanistic politics. In the more than 500 years since the founding of Zhongzhou, three presidents of Zhongzhou and eleven prime ministers of Zhongzhou have emerged from Beihai University.

, more than twenty deputy prime ministers of Central Continent and hundreds of Central Continent councillors.

This is a prestigious university, a university that affects the political trend of the entire Central Continent. It is known as the Oxford of the East. Today's Central Continent directors Dongcheng Wudi, Hua Zhengyang, Wan Qingyun, and Bai Qingqian, who is about to become a member of Parliament, are all

Graduated from Beihai University.

Many years ago, it was Chen Fangqing's dream school.

He entered Beihai as he wished and successfully completed the Beihai Civil Service Examination.

The welfare of civil servants in Beihai is the best in the world. Every civil servant will be allocated a house of at least 80 square meters in Beihai.

But Chen Fangqing finally chose to return to his hometown.

His parents rejected Chen Fangqing's request to settle in Beihai.

In his father's words, Beihai is good, but home is better.

That was his first brush with the North Sea.

On the recommendation of his father, he entered the city government, worked as a secretary, took a temporary job in the county, went to the provincial government, and then was transferred to Qinzhou, where he met Wu Zhengmin.

Chen Fangqing was thirty years old that year.

At the age of thirty-two, his father died of illness.

Three years later, he was personally received by Li Honghe and extended an invitation.

He received invitations from Haomen Group, Prince Group and Southeast Group.

Facing the city he governed, he made a choice that he still doesn't know whether he should regret.

That was the second time he passed by Beihai.

Then it was a smooth climb to the top.

Director of Qinzhou Province.

Talented Provincial Director and Deputy Speaker.

Governor of Tianfu Province.

Mayor of Southwest City.

Councilor Zhongzhou, Chairman of Southwest City.

Secondary Prime Minister of Central Continent.

Prime Minister of Central Continent.

Sing all the way.

But he still didn't feel that high-spirited.

Others watched him working hard and working hard, but he himself felt just cautious.

He carefully used his power and resources to plan his hometown, the city he governed, the province he controlled, and the country he represented.

Be cautious, walking on thin ice.
