Chapter 107: The War of Public Opinion

Early September.

After spending ten days in a wheelchair, Lin Xuanyuan finally got out of the wheelchair and began some restorative activities.

And at this time, it was the week after the plenary session of the Imperial Decision-making Bureau.

The storm that had been brewing in the empire for a long time finally came.

Fierce and violent, in this little more than a month before the plenary meeting of the Imperial Center, everyone in the bureau could clearly feel the danger and shock in the center of the storm.

Monday, September 9.

Ten o'clock in the morning.

Guo Tianlong, member of the Standing Committee of the Imperial Policy Bureau, head of the Supervision Department of the Imperial Center, and head of the Leading Group for the Inspection Work of the Imperial Center, personally presided over the plenary meeting of the Ministry of Supervision.

The meeting confirmed a new round of inspection work of the inspection team of the Imperial Center, and fully affirmed the previous round of inspection work.

The meeting conveyed the spirit of the important instructions of the Supreme Head of the Empire, Lin Qingtian, on the inspection work.

Guo Tianlong stressed that it is necessary to use the series of important speeches by Lin Qingtian, the supreme head of state, as an ideological weapon, implement the work arrangements of the Ministry of Supervision, adhere to the comprehensive and strict governance of the party, focus on problems, highlight key points, and innovate methods, so that the sword of inspection is hanging high and the deterrence is always there.

The meeting pointed out that comprehensively and strictly administering the party is always on the road, and we cannot relax for a moment. Only by shouldering the political responsibility of managing the party and governing the party can the party organizations at all levels unswervingly follow the road of socialism with imperial characteristics.

The meeting pointed out that looking at the essence through the phenomenon, from the 76 regions, departments and units that have been inspected, the weakening of the party's leadership, the lack of main responsibility, and the lax management of the party are common problems, while the situation of state-owned enterprises is even more severe, and the implementation of the task of strictly governing the party is particularly urgent.

Guo Tianlong stressed that the inspection team bears the trust and authority of the top level of the empire, has a lofty mission, and must stand at the height of the center of the empire to look at problems, maintain a modest and prudent fine style, practice loyalty, cleanliness and responsibility, strictly abide by the party's discipline, dare to tackle tough problems at every turn, and constantly improve the ability to supervise.

Wang Wenhao, member of the Imperial Policy Bureau, academician of the Central Academician Bureau, deputy minister of supervision, and deputy head of the Imperial Inspection Work Leading Group, and Cao Zhengzong, member of the Imperial Center, executive deputy director of the Imperial Officials Department, and vice minister Cao Zhengzong, who temporarily presided over the work of the Ministry of Officials, attended the meeting.

With the approval of the Empire, the new round of inspections of the Empire will carry out routine inspections in the Southwest City of the Empire, the North City of the Municipality directly under the Central Government, the Tianfu Province, the Dongshan Province, the Xishan Province, the Nanyue Province, the Jianghuai Province, the Nanhai Province, the Plateau Province, the Xihai Autonomous Region of the Empire, and many other regions.

There is no doubt that the areas inspected by the Imperial Inspectorate are the things that keep everyone's attention.

As soon as the scope of the Ministry of Supervision's inspection was exposed, it immediately caused an uproar, radiating the entire empire from Kyushu City, and the whole country shook!

Even on the day of the end of the meeting, Guo Tianlong, member of the Standing Committee of the Imperial Decision-making Bureau and Minister of Supervision, received several phone calls in the office, among which Ouyang Xu, member of the Imperial Decision-making Bureau and secretary of the Southwest City Party Committee, directly put down his heavy words and asked Minister Guo Tianlong without the slightest ambiguity, whether the Supreme Center of the Empire still trusts the Southwest Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government.

Leaders of Nanyue Province, Tiantian Province, Xishan Province, and Northern City also called to inquire.

Grumbling, making moods.

Minister Guo Tianlong was not angry, and smiled and appeased them one by one, but the inspection work was not delayed at all, and the day after the meeting, the various inspection teams had been dispatched.

There is no doubt that the many regional provinces inspected by the empire this time are all in the sphere of influence of the southwest faction, and some places may not be regarded as base camps and back gardens, but they are definitely areas where the southwest faction has the advantage of power, at least, the leaders of these provinces must be people from the southwest faction.

The only exception is Dongshan Province.

This large economic province of the empire, which is highly valued by the southwest faction, after Wen Keliang, the general of the southwest faction, was transferred, the number one leader fell directly into the hands of Huang Fujun, the cadre of the royal faction.

At the beginning, in the face of the situation that it was difficult to move an inch alone, Huang Fujun behaved very steadily, and with Lin Xuanyuan, Chen Hualou, Ye Nianlun and others constantly putting pressure on the southwest faction and hitting Lin Qingtian's prestige, Huang Fujun also seized the opportunity to operate in Dongshan Province.

The day after the patrol team left.

The Supreme Center of the Reich and the Reich Cabinet jointly issued a document to solicit the specific views and opinions of the cadres of the Party and government departments at all levels of the Reich on the reorganization of the Cabinet and the abolition of the six ministries of the Reich.

The discussion spread throughout the empire in an instant.

September 13th.

An article entitled "On the Necessity of Cabinet Reshuffle" appeared directly in the Beihu People's Daily in Beihu Province, in which it emphasized the political significance of the cabinet reshuffle, and brought out Li Donglei, listed a large number of data, and emphasized the necessity of cabinet reshuffle in the model of Li Donglei's administration.

Nanhu Province, Nanyun Province and other provinces quickly reprinted this article.

The Beihu People's Daily, which is an official media and is under the jurisdiction of the propaganda outlet of the Ministry of Rites of the Beihu Provincial Party Committee, undoubtedly represents the attitude of the southern faction.

However, the southern faction is obviously still in the tentative stage, and the wording is very modest, mainly expressing the yearning for the cabinet reshuffle and the prospect of the development of the empire after the reshuffle.

Less than 24 hours after the article was published, in the early morning of 14 September, another article entitled "The Fortune of the Country, the Happiness of the People" appeared directly in the Wuyue People's Daily.

Compared with the article published in Beihu Province yesterday, this article that appeared in the Wuyue People's Daily far overshadowed the former in terms of weight and content.

The article pointed out that the reorganization of the cabinet is imperative and is the empire's march on the right path, and the establishment of the six ministries, after being tested in practice, has been affirmed, is not perfect, and the excessive concentration of power has led to an increase in the difficulty of supervision, so that a considerable number of cadres will use the power in their hands in the wrong place, and in the long run, it will not only hinder the development of the empire, but also become an important obstacle to the development of the empire.

This article, between the lines, is much more aggressive than the one published in Beihu Province, the article in Beihu Province is too subtle, although it also expresses its attitude, but it is just looking forward to the reshuffle of the cabinet, and Wu Yue's article is directly aimed at the current system, without any reservations, it is directly criticized, the excessive concentration of power makes the power used in the wrong place, hinders the development of the empire, an important obstacle, these words are very weighty.

And even more weighty is the author of this article.

Xu Mingyue, an alternate member of the Imperial Center, a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee of Wu Yuexing, and the Minister of Rites, is a well-known female cadre at the vice-governor level in the imperial political arena.

And such a very important cadre jumped out directly to guide Wu Yue's public opinion, which is equivalent to the Wang family showing his aggressiveness at once.

The cadres at the level of deputy governors went into battle shirtless, and in comparison, the article in Beihu Province was undoubtedly a little petty.

Yang Xiuyuan was also a little helpless, he knew very well that the Wang faction was using Xu Mingyue to express his dissatisfaction with the southern faction, but he couldn't say much, now the southern faction and the Wang faction joined forces to put pressure on the southwest faction, and the-for-tat posture was already obvious, at this time, there was no need to be polite and tempting, but when all the energy and resources were exhausted, the article in Beihu Province was really a little too mild.

So the Wang family is moving, and Yang Xiuyuan is also moving.

On the day that Xu Mingyue, member of the Standing Committee of the Wuyue Provincial Party Committee and Minister of Rites, published the article, official media such as the Imperial Xinhua News Agency, China News Service, People's Daily, and Beijing Daily reprinted Xu Mingyue's article one after another.

Among the six departments of the empire, the influence of the southern faction on the household department and the Ministry of Rites has always been very strong, and the areas under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Rites include propaganda and control of the empire's tongue and throat, and the influence of the southern faction cannot be ignored when public opinion is needed.

And with Yang Xiuyuan's movements.

The voices in favor of the cabinet reshuffle were instantly raised.

And some sociologists, economic experts, etc. have also been mobilized by the royal family and the southern faction to talk about the benefits of the cabinet reshuffle on some social programs and livelihood programs, and their influence is getting bigger and bigger, so that many ordinary people in the empire know that the cabinet is going to be reorganized.

And the counterattack of the southwest faction came a few days later.

September 16.

Southwest Daily, Yanzhao People's Daily, Tianfu Daily, Northern Minsheng Daily, Capital People's Daily, Nanhai Daily, Plateau Daily, Shenzhou Imperial Daily, People's Daily, Xinhua News Agency, and countless media outlets appeared at almost the same time with a large amount of opposition to the cabinet reshuffle.

Among them, there are many senior cadres at the department and bureau level, core cadres at the deputy governor level, and even a few prince-level cadres at the governor level.

Voices against the cabinet reshuffle silenced everything.

Opposing voices pointed out that there are certain drawbacks in the lack of the current cabinet and the six ministries, but the top of the empire has never given up restraining these drawbacks, and in the past days, they have also thought of many ways, and the correctness of the former system is worthy of affirmation, but the empire needs a new way to lead the empire to break through the current bottleneck, and when it encounters setbacks, it wants to retreat, and when it encounters difficulties, it wants to copy the previous system to deal with it, which is perfunctory, is a wrong attitude, and is irresponsible and unprincipled, as a party member, as a member of the imperial administrative system, everyone should work hard to overcome difficulties and move towards a new tomorrow under the leadership of Lin Qingtian, instead of running away, dodging, and perfunctory, we should face difficulties, move forward bravely, and overcome all difficulties.

The opposition is getting louder and louder.

There are also more and more voices of support.

In addition to the strongholds of several major factions, some provinces and some local factions in the empire have all expressed their opinions, and the discussion has become more and more intense.

"Tsk, leading more than a billion people, leading a country to face difficulties, overcome difficulties, there is a better way to not use, you have to gamble, the head of state is also generous enough. ”

God of War Palace, Lin Xuanyuan threw aside the newspaper in his hand and said with a mocking expression, but his voice trembled a little.

It was a kind of exhaustion and fatigue that bordered on general weakness.

"You look like you just jumped out of a cauldron of boiling water. ”

Wang Jinxiu took a towel to wipe Lin Xuanyuan's body, and joked with a smile.

Lin Xuanyuan's body was lying in a wheelchair, snorting, and he had no strength to speak.

His whole body is now amazingly red, some of the wounds that had already scabbed have even reopened, bleeding, thick sweat is all over his body, Lin Xuanyuan is almost transparent up and down, as if under the burning skin, every blood vessel is clearly visible, and it looks extremely weird.

The blood flowed rapidly in the body, and that crispy and numb feeling spread all over the body, Lin Xuanyuan felt it silently, and the corners of his mouth were raised uncontrollably.

It's late September.

In almost twenty days, most of his injuries have healed, and in the past few days, he has been refining the balance method, reaching the flexibility of the human body, balance and body endurance, which can allow Lin Xuanyuan to make many movements in the balance method.

Practicing balancing is a painful process.

But Lin Xuanyuan felt that it was nothing, bitter, really bitter, tired, really tired, but compared to the original practice of the peak method, it was a small thing.

Lin Xuanyuan hadn't felt any changes in his body yet, but this feeling of accelerated blood flow and unimpeded flow made him instinctively have an intuition.

My speed seems to have become faster again.

The magnitude of the acceleration is very faint, even a few tenths of a second.

But this was enough to make Lin Xuanyuan feel happy, and his speed became faster, although the faint one had no effect at all, but this could also prove that his physical strength was indeed increasing.

"When are you going to the United States?"

Wang Jinxiu wiped Lin Xuanyuan's body, and said softly: "Why don't you take it slowly, you study the balance method first, and then go when the injury is completely healed and the combat effectiveness is increasing?"

"How can it be so fast? Do you think that the balance method is an elixir? A few days of research can increase the combat effectiveness? The peak method, the balance method, no matter how fast it is, it will need to be accumulated over time. But you're right, you should go to the United States slowly, at least after the end of the Imperial Plenum, in the past, the war over there will have to be faced sooner or later, but the domestic war has already begun, and at this time, you can't go. ”

Wang Jinxiu's eyes glanced at the newspaper on the coffee table and nodded slightly.

The empire's war of public opinion can only be won and cannot be defeated.

It is very important that there is no room for error.
