Chapter 106: War
For the first time in his life, Lin Xiaocao was busy not busy killing, but running for his life and training.
After coming to Kyushu City for more than two months, things happened one after another, and he never realized the huge power brought by the God of War King, and first of all, he felt the responsibility that the prince of the royal family had to bear.
Tired.
It's even more tiring than countless life-and-death struggles, circling around different high-ranking officials and dignitaries in the business and political circles every day, meeting with them almost non-stop, drinking the best wine, eating the best dishes, and even entertainment is the highest level, this kind of life that countless people yearn for is completely sinful in Lin Xiaocao's view.
The renaming of the cabinet and the reorganization of the six parts of the empire are the top priorities after he came to the Shenzhou Empire, no matter what, he feels that he should take action, the God of War Mansion is called the dark side of the royal family, and its status is sensitive, whether it is the contact with the southern faction or the test of the southwest faction, the God of War Royal Mansion can be said to be the vanguard, the God of War King Lin Xuanyuan, one of the leaders of the royal family, but he does not hold any important positions, he can attack and retreat, once there is a mess, he can also quickly clear the relationship with the royal family and carry it down by himself, this is not tragic, but the role of the royal palace in politics is like this, the dark side of a big faction, as long as it is not caught, many times there is not so much balance and compromise, whoever has the big fist makes sense.
For half a month, Lin Xiaocao did not take any other action except for talking to the dignitaries of the Wang family, after the captain of the wind Wang Tongtian left his job and transferred to the south, Lin Xiaocao took the position of captain, the captain instructor shouldered the responsibility, and the rank was still lieutenant colonel, but because of the influence of the cabinet renaming this thing that is still secretly operating, he has less and less time in the wind, and he goes once in a while, which is also a bit of a hurry.
Lin Xiaocao is waiting, waiting for a suitable opportunity, the reorganization of the six departments, this matter will not only affect the imperial political arena, but also a major reshuffle of the forces between the major factions, if the royal faction can achieve the expected effect, it is very likely to pull the southwest faction off the throne of the empire's first film two years in advance.
The stakes are very high, Lin Xiaocao is not in a hurry, the document has been handed over to the leaders of the southern faction, their reaction is the opportunity for the royal family and the God of War Royal Mansion to make a move, time passes day by day, Lin Xiaocao is becoming more and more calm, there is no disappointment or chagrin at all, it is completely as if this has not happened.
Finally, on the afternoon of the sixth day after the document was sent, Chen Qingyu received a call from Gao Xiangdong, the head of the household department, in which Gao Xiangdong invited the God of War King to have dinner together in the evening.
The location is the Golden Autumn Pavilion of the Hidden Dragon Sea.
It is also commonly known as the No. 2 Building of the Hidden Dragon Sea, the place where the office of the imperial prime minister rests.
This is a place that even Lin Xiaocao feels deeply surprised, and it is also the other party's great sincerity and determination.
He originally thought that even if the imperial prime minister Yang Xiuyuan loosened his attitude, he would meet with him secretly, so that no matter what the outcome of the talks was, there would be a way out for both sides.
But now it's not the case at all, the other party's attitude is extremely obvious, and he is openly inviting him to be a guest in the Hidden Dragon Sea.
The supreme leader of the southern faction made an appointment to meet the dark leader of the royal faction, and as soon as the news spread, it was enough to shake the world.
Lin Xiaocao thought silently, although his face was calm, his heart was very dignified.
Yang Xiuyuan has this statement, although it is strange, but it is understandable when you think about it, you are about to retire when you are old, this political giant who has stabilized the empire's economy for ten years, maintained stability but has not made great achievements, just wants to end in the final madness, he wants to do something too much, for the empire, for the faction, and for himself, the supreme head leads the cabinet and the six ministries, which is the pressure at the top, and the huge influence left by the former prime minister Li Donglei, as well as the sharp edge of the latecomer Chen Hualou.
Under pressure from all sides, Yang Xiuyuan struggled, and he was still able to stabilize the cabinet in ten years, which is enough to see his ability.
Born ahead of one's time.
If it were in an era when the political atmosphere was relatively peaceful, the empire would definitely have such a prime minister, and it would definitely be applauded.
So when he was about to retire, when he encountered an opportunity that was enough to change the situation of the empire and create the most ideal political atmosphere, he seized it without hesitation.
It's just that this plan was put forward by Chen Hualou of the Wang family, Yang Xiuyuan is just a gun that is used, once this reform plan is on the decision-making bureau, it will definitely cause a huge political storm, in this case, whether it is Ye Nianlun or Chen Hualou, who is about to take the throne, it is not suitable to launch this reform plan, but Yang Xiuyuan, who has no scruples about retirement and is eager to do something, has become the best candidate for the use of the Wang family, and Chen Hualou is also using Yang Xiuyuan's point.
Once he begins to promote reform, it will inevitably cause a crazy counterattack by the southwest faction, and then all the members of the southern faction will withstand the pressure from the southwest faction, and the pressure of the royal faction will be much easier, and it will be more comfortable for the upper position of the three leaders, so as to draw a perfect end to the reform set off by Yang Xiuyuan in the most critical period.
Yang Xiuyuan made the beginning, Ye Nianlun and Chen Hualou did the end, and the lion's share of the credit was given to the southern faction by the royal family, but it won the largest space for the political environment on his side.
But this merit and reputation, once the reform began, the southern faction itself did not know how many talents it would lose, so there was a meeting between Yang Xiuyuan and the God of War King Lin Xuanyuan today.
When the two meet, they are talking about conditions.
What does the southern faction pay, what kind of compensation will the royal faction give to the southern faction, and when will it speak, and when the southern faction will withstand the pressure, the God of War Palace, and what the royal faction will do.
These are political deals to be kept secret.
The other party directly hung the negotiation site in the Golden Autumn Pavilion, not intending to use the home advantage to put pressure on Lin Xiaocao, but directly expressed his determination.
To make a gun for the Wang family, yes, Yang Xiuyuan is also willing to be used, provided that the Wang family can meet his conditions.
There is only one such conversation, success, everyone cooperates, everyone is happy, no, everyone bye-bye, one shot and two scattered.
Four Mercedes-Benz front and rear escort central Rolls-Royce slowly driving on the road of Kyushu City, the arrogance is amazing, the traffic police on duty in Kyushu City have walked to the intersection to implement traffic control, regardless of the traffic lights, the first to release this row of luxury convoys.
The car originally belonged to the side-by-side king Wang Fuyu, by the European Rothschild family patriarch, the woman known as Her Majesty the Empress gave it to the side-side king less than a few months, and now the side-by-side king went to the Americas, the car naturally belonged to Lin Xiaocao, but until today, he used it for the first time.
Pay attention to pomp and circumstance, and sometimes it is also respect for the other party.
On the soft and comfortable rear seat, Lin Xiaocao silently closed the information in his hand, leaned on the backrest and thought seriously for a while, finally opened his eyes, reached out and patted the driver's seat in front of him and said, "Drive faster, we have to arrive early." ”
On the document that he closed was the conditions for the transaction between the royal family and the southern faction, and there were several conditions that were only passed down by word of mouth and not recorded in writing, among which the senior officials at the level of deputy governor and full governor involved double digits, and even included members of the decision-making bureau and other party and imperial leaders.
Obviously, both sides attach great importance to this negotiation and have given each other the greatest sincerity and respect.
But what the outcome of the negotiations will be, both sides are uncertain at this time.
On this day, a young man who has just turned twenty-three this year but is already known as the God of War King is about to face the second person of the empire alone in a difficult negotiation that may affect the pattern of the empire for decades to come.
Half a step, you can't retreat!
Whether it is for Lin Xiaocao or Yang Xiuyuan.
It's all a war!
