Chapter 379: Assassination
"Old leader, the results of this election are very exciting, with the rapid development of our country, the task of reshaping our diplomatic image has become extremely urgent, Chairman Ye's election is just right, the Shenzhou Empire is fearless, this sentence is good, it is good to say, it is time for the empire to show a tough side to the outside world, otherwise it will always be provoked from time to time, which is completely unreasonable. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info”
In the venue of the Jingxi Hotel, Zhao Qiqi, a member of the Imperial Center and the first secretary of Tianfu Province, had a loud and hearty voice in a nearby area, without deliberately lowering his voice, which seemed very high-key, making several nearby dignitaries look sideways for a while, especially when they saw who Zhao Qiqi was facing, the surprise on his face was even more obvious.
Opposite Zhao Qiqi, member of the Imperial Decision-making Bureau, Han Houde, the first secretary of Wu Yue Province, was smiling and listening to Zhao Qiqi's talk, as the backbone of the southwest faction, Zhao Qiqi called him the old leader when he faced Han Houde, one of the leaders of the royal family, and there was a reason for him to call him the old leader, when Han Houde was the first deputy minister of the Ministry of Finance, Zhao Qiqi was the director of a department of the Ministry of Finance, and it can be said that Han Houde was a direct subordinate of Han Houde, this is entirely because Zhao Qiqi has not yet entered the specific circle of the southwest faction because of the level relationship at that time.
After the fall of the No. 1 leader belonging to the southwest faction more than ten years ago, the internal chaos of the southwest faction, Zhao Qiqi, who was praised by Han Houde many times, also entered the field of vision of the high-level leaders of the southwest faction, and then not long after, Zhao Qiqi was transferred from the Ministry of Finance to the first secretary of a city in Tianfu Province, followed by the deputy governor, executive deputy governor, governor, and now the first secretary of Tianfu Province, step by step is extremely solid.
Although the political status of Tianfu Province in the country cannot be compared with Wu Yue, the status in the hearts of the southwest faction is equivalent to Wu Yue in the heart of the Wang family, which is the core and fundamental place, and Zhao Qiqi can serve as the first secretary of Tianfu Province, which has already shown his core position within the southwest faction.
For so many years, although Zhao Qiqi and Han Houde have occasionally been in contact, they have always maintained a personal relationship, and it seems to be the first time that the two have an intimate conversation in public.
Han Houde didn't expect to meet Zhao Qiqi when he walked down from the rostrum, after the election in the morning, it was time to rest, and after lunch, the plenary session continued to be held, so during this time period, the members of the empire had a very free time, Zhao Qiqi could wait for him to come down, and he said such a high-profile remark as soon as they met, obviously not on a whim, it should be with a special purpose.
"Inspire, sit. ”
Han Houde smiled and waved his hand, motioning for Zhao Qiqi to sit down: "What you said is very good, this time Chairman Ye was elected, I fully support it, special period, special treatment, the military is a big stall, this war, we must take it, otherwise it will be a national sinner, from the overall situation, this election is for the victory of the war and the better tomorrow of the empire, that's all, some comrades in our party always have some conspiracy theories, thinking that this is a struggle for power and profit, a compromise by Lin Qingtian, nonsense." In the face of war, in the face of external threats, we have to unite with the outside world, and at this time there is still internal fighting, that is, we can't see the situation clearly, right?"
"I completely agree with the old leader. As a matter of fact, there are some comrades in Tianfu Province who are a little puzzled, and Comrade Minghe has done a lot of work, but this is just a few people, and most people still understand and support this election. ”
Zhao Qiqi smiled, and inadvertently pointed out Lin Minghe, the governor of Tianfu Province.
Han Houde smiled and nodded, glanced at Zhao Qiqi, but reaffirmed his thoughts in his heart.
There is no doubt that Zhao Qiqi's low-profile but extremely high-profile support for Ye Nianlun's election is for the position in Southwest City next year.
If it can succeed, it means that the southwest faction has stabilized its stitch after a series of compromises, on the contrary, if Xu Dongping is re-elected, it means that the future form of the southwest faction is still unclear, at least there are variables.
Zhao Qiqi came to find himself at this time, although the most direct purpose was not Zhao Yingfei, but it was not far behind.
The first secretary of Tianfu Province is eyeing Zhao Yingfei's position.
Zhao Qiqi served as the first secretary of Tianfu Province five years ago, and after next year, with his age, it will not be possible to retire, but if he wants to go, there are also difficulties, and it is very likely that he will be a member of the Central Committee and transferred to other provinces as the first secretary.
Zhao Qiqi has his own appeals, his age is now relatively young among the cadres at the governor level, but after another five years, his age will not have any advantage, at this time, in the case that Zhao Yingfei is likely to become an imperial giant, Zhao Yingfei's biggest appeal is to enter the decision-making bureau, serve as the first secretary of Southwest City, and then become one of the leaders of the southwest faction.
Zhao Qiqi is here to seek Han Houde's support.
Once Han Houde supports Zhao Qiqi to go to the southwest, it will be tantamount to supporting Zhao Yingfei to become permanent next year, which is tantamount to doing the southwest faction a big favor.
Therefore, Zhao Qiqi's low-profile and high-profile statement of support for Ye Nianlun today should be a temptation for the southwest faction.
Moreover, Zhao Qiqi also mentioned Lin Minghe, the governor of Tianfu Province, so all the other party's demands suddenly surfaced.
The southwest faction hopes that Han Houde will support Zhao Yingfei's entry into the Chang, so that Zhao Qiqi will take Zhao Yingfei's position, and Lin Minghe will take Zhao Qiqi's position.
This is tantamount to the demands of three prominent positions of a decision-making bureau giant, a decision-making bureau member, and a heavyweight center member.
The plot is not small.
Han Houde subconsciously narrowed his eyes, was silent, and didn't say a word.
He is not in a hurry to express his position, if the southwest faction really thinks that he can exchange such a huge support from him by relying on his friendship with Zhao Qiqi, then the southwest faction will not be able to go this far, high-level politics, personal friendship and factional interests have always been separated, and confusing the two is tantamount to touching the bottom line.
Han Houde knows why the southwest faction attaches so much importance to his attitude, this is not only because he is a member of the decision-making bureau, because of his age, he will definitely retire next year, but Wu Yue is the core of the royal family, he has served as the first secretary of Wu Yue for five years, and his prestige is extremely high, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a man of his word in Wu Yue.
And Wu Yue's voice, in the entire Wang family, is worthy of everyone's attention, in addition to the fact that he will definitely retire next year, if he expresses his support for a certain thing before retirement, the voice of the Wang family's opposition will be reduced to the lowest, if the Wang family agrees with the demands of the southwest faction, then the southern faction alone will oppose it, and it will not play a role at all, and even their entire faction will be further compressed because of the unsatisfactory position of the giant.
So whether you support it or not is definitely a big deal.
Han Houde groaned, waiting for Zhao Qiqi to give the chips of the southwest faction, there is no transaction that cannot be made.
As long as there are enough chips.
......
"One group found no suspicious circumstances. ”
"No suspicious circumstances were found in the second group. ”
"No suspicious circumstances were found in the three groups. ”
"Safe. ”
"Safe. ”
In the venue, Helian Yunteng, director of the Second Department of the General Staff, walked calmly, but the sound in the headset kept reaching his ears all the time, and in the simple report in a clear manner, it was safe.
No surprises?
How could there be no surprises?
Helian Yunteng did not relax, but became more vigilant in his heart.
He knows very well that this phenomenon is not normal, this plenum of the empire is extremely special, and it is facing the whole world, such an occasion is definitely a good opportunity for the United States to fight the Shenzhou Empire, the war is about to begin, the United States needs to do several major things to boost morale, and the other party will definitely not miss such a good opportunity at the moment.
The danger must still be hidden in the shadows.
"Be vigilant and don't be careless!"
Helian Yunteng took a deep breath and commanded in a deep voice into the earphones, and in his sight, the eyes of the director of the Imperial Security Bureau, who was trusted by the empire, just swept over.
The two looked at each other, nodded slightly, and then turned in another direction.
The new director of the security bureau is a member of the southwest faction, like Helian Yunteng, he has just taken office this year, and has not yet been elected as a central member of the empire, and this year's situation is special, their election is likely to be placed next year, without participating in the meeting, their biggest task is to patrol everywhere to ensure the safety of the venue.
"Don't be too nervous, relax, the face you have now, as long as you are not blind, you can see your vigilance. ”
A voice sounded beside Helian Yunteng.
Helian Yunteng was startled, subconsciously turned his head, looked at the comer, and shouted with a wry smile: "Mr. Wang." ”
Wang Tianxiong didn't say much, patted Helian Yunteng's shoulder, turned around and walked to another position.
Meanwhile.
Zhao Qizheng, the first secretary of Tianfu Province, stood up in front of Han Houde, the first secretary of Wuyue Province, on the surface, after a short conversation, Zhao Qiqi seemed to be a little disappointed with the result of the conversation, but the smile on his face was still cordial: "Old leader, I'll go look elsewhere, in the evening, we are talking in detail at night." ”
"Good. ”
Han Houde stood up and shook hands with Zhao Qiqi with a smile.
A reporter happened to come over at this time, and when he saw the two secretaries who were important in the empire and were also the core of their respective factions, his eyes lit up, he quickened his pace slightly, and came to the two of them and said: "Hello, Secretary Han, hello, Secretary Zhao, I don't know that it is inconvenient for us to interview the two of you for one question." ”
Han Houde and Zhao Qiqi nodded with a smile, their expressions calm.
The reporter excitedly took out the voice recorder and held the microphone in front of the two adults.
The cameraman's hand behind the reporter was also pressed on the shutter.
Journalist, videographer.
When the two of them were about to press the recorder and shutter, a slightly ordinary-looking figure appeared in front of Han Houde unusually suddenly.
Fast.
Fast as a phantom.
"Bang!"
In the dull sound, the reporter who was about to press the voice recorder was like being hit by a high-speed truck, and the whole person directly took off into the air, flew out more than 20 meters away, and then fell into the crowd with blood spitting out his mouth.
The key of the voice recorder was pressed, but the direction was completely offset, and a bullet shot out of the voice recorder, shattering a teacup next to Han Houde.
"Bang!"
At the same time, the cameraman next to the reporter pressed the shutter on Zhao Qiqi.
The gunfire recoiled instantly.
Inside the camera, bullets are fired.
In Han Houde's sight, Zhao Qiqi, who had just had a good conversation with him, instantly exploded like a smashed watermelon, and blood and brains splattered out, splashing him all over.
The audience was in an uproar!
Zhao Qiqi, who didn't have time to react, shook his body and fell to the ground, dazed.
October 23 at 11:20 a.m.
In the Jingxi Hotel, Zhao Qiqi, a member of the Imperial Center and the first secretary of Tianfu Province, who participated in the plenary session, was assassinated!
The world was shocked.
