After the meeting, when the time was about to end the office, the minister's office received a call from the US Embassy, which was personally from Ambassador Jackson.

Ambassador Jackson said on the phone that he would invite Tang Yi to dinner in his personal name, and when he hung up the phone, Tang Yi asked Li Gang to check it, and the appointment was not very important in the evening, so he asked the office to call back and express his acceptance of Jackson's invitation.

When he went to the banquet, Tang Yi brought Li Gang with him, and asked the secretary's office to prepare the case, I don't know Jackson's intentions, and he has just arrived at the center, so he should naturally be cautious.

Jackson, a white man in his fifties, with short gray hair, looks very generous, he knows Chinese culture very well, and even knows to give Tang Yi the menu to Tang Yi to order food, just like a personal friend in China.

"Minister Tang, I have admired your name for a long time, and in Chinese it is like thunder." Jackson held a glass of Moutai and toasted with a smile.

Tang Yi smiled and touched a glass with him, but when he saw that the old man was dry, Tang Yi was stunned for a moment, and drank the wine as soon as possible.

It seems that Jackson is indeed a private banquet, not talking about politics in a word, and Tang Yi Haikan from all over the world, starting from the long-established alleys that some Chinese people in the capital are not familiar with, to the ancient capital of the Central Plains and the southern water towns, he knows very well, and humbly asks Tang Yi for some allusions in history, to be honest, in the end, some allusions stumped Tang Yi, so he had to bluntly say that he didn't know.

Jackson said appreciatively: "Minister Tang is worthy of his name, as straightforward as us Americans, I also like Minister Tang's governing style, several of my friends appreciate you very much, and Mike often mentions you." ”

Tang Yi waved his hand and said, "Honesty is a virtue of our Chinese, and similarly, what your people think is not straightforward is often a kind of politeness, which is also our traditional virtue. ”

Jackson laughed: "Minister Tang, I didn't mean that, don't misunderstand." ”

From the moment he sat down, Tang Yi had been pondering Jackson's intentions and listening carefully to his every word, but by the end of the banquet, he didn't see any clues.

Jackson is a close friend of the US president and a super-heavyweight figure of the Democratic Party; in the US presidential election a few years ago, he also had the hope of being nominated by the party, but because he pursued a friendly policy toward China, he did not get the support of the overwhelming majority of the party's forces, and it was predictable that he would not get the support of the mainstream American society, and even if he was really nominated, he would definitely end up in a fiasco.

Such a character naturally won't really be a good treat to chat with the brothers, but what is his intention?

Back at Miaoshan Villa, Tang Yi pondered for a long time, and finally called He Sen and asked him to come over immediately.

He Sen is now the deputy director of the sub-bureau, a department-level cadre, and he is in a neat spirit in a dark blue police officer's uniform, but he has been a little fat in the past two years, and he is slightly fat.

"He Sen, you know Mike? Kim this person? Is it an American? ”

Before He Sen's ass could sit firmly, he was startled and hesitated when he heard Tang Yi ask about it.

Tang Yi's brows furrowed slightly, "Tell the truth." "It seems that I have found the context, just now carefully recalling the conversation with Jackson, the old man mentioned Mike several times? Kim, it turns out that it really has something to do with this person. The old man has been in China for a long time, but his way of expression is also to learn from China, which is a little helpless.

He Sen didn't dare to hide it anymore, and said, "It's Lele, who beat this person." "Lele is Tang Yi's nephew, the son of his aunt's cousin Sunan, and he has not graduated from college yet.

Tang Yi didn't squeak and picked up the teacup.

He Sen continued, Mike is the vice president of a multinational group in the United States, has been living in Beijing in recent years, a few days ago took his Chinese girlfriend to the mall, like and Lele and a group of people bumped into a quarrel, and then Lele led people to beat Mike violently, when the local party sent out the incident to deal with, it seemed that the attitude towards Lele and others was not very good, the two sides had physical contact, as a result, Lele and several people beat the police inspector, and finally alarmed He Sen, it was He Sen who got Lele and his gang out.

Thinking about it, Mike should have friends or parents who have a relationship with Jackson, and are familiar with some domestic rules, after all, he still has to do business in the capital, and he doesn't dare to offend Lele and his gang too much.

He Sen said as he looked at Tang Yi's face, and his heart became more and more uneasy.

The energetic music, the flickering light and shadow, the men and women who writhe wildly, are full of decadence and depravity.

In the luxurious VIP room of the Blue Island Disco, more than a dozen boys and girls jingle beer glasses.

Sitting in the middle of the private room was a handsome and handsome boy with a cigarette in his mouth and a high face.

"Lele, will it be fine?" The young and beautiful girl in his arms asked him in a worried whisper.

The corners of Su Lele's mouth twitched, revealing a hint of contempt. Uncle He Lei has a stake in this disco, and it is also here that he met these gaoganzidi, however, his girlfriend Xiaoling has known him since high school, and he was still a classmate in college, and he chased it for a long time to catch up, and it was the first time he had contact with his circle.

If it weren't for the need for alcohol anesthesia now, he wouldn't have brought Xiaoling here, this circle, he didn't like it. In this circle for a long time, people will become moldy and rotten, and he doesn't want Xiao Ling to become a member of it.

Although Xiao Ling's voice was soft, it was still heard, and a chubby girl laughed: "Sister, you're not serious, are you?" How could something happen to Lele? Do you know who Lele's uncle is? His uncle is," the fat girl deliberately lengthened her voice, then gently spit out two words.

These two words seem to have magical power, and the room immediately fell silent, and these new generation of gaoganzidi mentioned his name, just like the generation of Long Gongzi mentioned Tang Lao and Xie Lao when they were young, sacred, majestic, and mountainous. It's so hard and disrespectful to even say these two words directly, and after the fat girl finished speaking, she picked up the beer glass and poured it into a big gulp.

Xiao Ling asked stupidly, "Who is Tang Yi?" ”

The boys and girls in the room all looked at her like monsters, and for a long time, no one knew what to say about her.

Su Lele smiled, this is what he likes about Xiaoling, unlike in this circle, everyone seems to be born with a hierarchy, and himself, because of the relationship between his uncle and uncle, seems to be the top of the food chain as a matter of course.

It seems that everyone doesn't want to talk about this topic anymore, and a boy said with a smile: "Besides, Lele is to eliminate harm for the people, damn, I can't see foreign farmers running to Sijiu City to hang their arms, seduce the good family, and then see this grandson, and then beat him!" ”

Everyone said yes in a hurry, Xiao Ling looked at these arrogant boys and girls worriedly, in the eyes of these people, it seems that Beijing City is theirs, and they beat foreign bosses, they don't take it seriously at all, Lele, Lele is also one of them, is this still the Lele he originally knew?

The door of the box was suddenly opened, and the boys and girls were startled, and some people wanted to scold, but when they saw the people who came in, they all shut up and stood up one after another, "Uncle," and "Uncle" shouted.

Glancing at Lele, He Sen frowned, "Why don't you turn on your phone?" Follow me. ”

Lele and He Lei have the best relationship, but they don't like He Sen very much, He Lei is cheerful and likes to joke, and Lele is just like a buddy, but He Sen is very serious, many people in the capital are afraid of him, saying that he is yin, and Lele also resists him from the heart.

"Where?" Lele stalked his neck.

"Don't talk nonsense, come out!" He Sen reprimanded him.

Su Lele suddenly understood, stood up, but grabbed Xiao Ling's hand and said, "You come with me." ”

"Where?" Before Xiao Ling came back to his senses, he was dragged out by Su Lele.

Su Lele smiled: "Don't you know who my uncle is?" Take you to see and see. ”

Although he was still joking, Xiao Ling was keenly aware of his uneasiness, Lele had always used cynicism to hide his heart, and how terrible was the person who could make him afraid and fearful?

Outside the Blue Island Discotheque, He Sen glanced at Xiao Ling and said, "Send her home first." ”

Su Lele grabbed Xiao Ling's hand and said, "No." On his face, there was that aggressive look again.

He Sen frowned, but didn't say anything in the end, and gestured for the two to get into the car.

Xiao Ling jumped out of the off-road vehicle, just shocked by the beautiful scenery of the antique royal courtyard in front of him, and was immediately startled by the armed police soldier with a solemn expression with a loaded gun.

On the side of the iron gate, the armed police soldiers stood straight, with shiny bayonets and straight military uniforms, which made people feel fearful.

A handsome female military policeman in camouflage uniform came over, carefully checked the contents of Xiao Ling's handbag, and searched Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling looked at Lele helplessly, like a puppet at the mercy of the female police officer.

"Please come in." The female officer then gave a standard military salute, and then made another gesture, not knowing who it was for.

Su Lele then took Xiao Ling's hand again, why did he bring Xiao Ling, probably he couldn't say clearly, perhaps, it was because he was afraid of the person he was about to face, and by Xiao Ling's side, he could always muster up courage.

Dazzling and dazed, Xiao Ling walked into the living room with the red carpet, and two girls in crimson uniforms were waiting on the porch, all of which seemed mysterious and solemn.

There was a man sitting on the sofa in the living room, with his back to them, and when he heard the sound of footsteps, he turned his head, he didn't look very old, and he was in his early thirties, but his eyes were unforgiving, and he turned around Lele and Xiao Ling, Xiao Ling's heart suddenly panicked, and even at first glance, he couldn't make any judgment on this man's appearance, as if this kind of character could no longer be recognized by ordinary people's first impression of people.

Tang Yi saw Lele holding the girl's hand tightly, smiled, and made a gesture, "Come and sit, Lele, your girlfriend, right?" What is your name? ”

Lele, the son of cousin Sunan, the grandson of the aunt, the aunt and the family have gone far away, maybe they still blame the grandfather for being eccentric, right?

Why is he ranked third, it was also the proposal of my aunt when I was a child, saying that no matter what the surname is, whether it is a man or a woman, they are all members of the Tang family, so Xiaonan, Rong Rong, and Xiaoyi will be ranked according to their age, so they seem to be close, yes, they have become the third child of the "Tang family", He Lei, He Sen, Tang Xin, and they also began to call themselves "third brother", but in recent years, He Sen and He Lei have removed the "three" in front, only Tang Xin shouted smoothly, and they have not been able to change it.

Sunan became the eldest brother of the "Tang family", and his aunt also had high expectations for him, especially in the years when he rebelled against his grandfather, his cousin was ready to enter the journey, but his grandfather never gave up on himself, and reprimanded his aunt for leaving the capital, so that his family left the capital.

My cousin is now a staff officer of the Operations Department of a certain unit in the Beijing Garrison, with the rank of lieutenant colonel, which can be said to be very unsatisfactory, in fact, when he was young, he had many opportunities for promotion, but he was stopped by his grandfather and second uncle, and he couldn't have relatives big and small in important positions, yes, it is understandable that his cousin was indifferent to himself.

Maybe because of this, my cousin has a lot of hope for Lele, but educating children is a university question, even if you put all your efforts into it, the education method is not right, and the result will often be the opposite.

Lele is like this, the older he gets, the stronger the spirit of resistance, he is disgusted by the "red blood" that his father often talks about, Sunan told him to go east, he is going to the west, he was originally excellent in character and learning when he was a child, but when he grew up, he became a real gentleman, and it doesn't seem to be his Su Lele's style to make trouble for a few days. Gradually, Sunan also lost patience with him, and in the past two years, when he heard that he was in trouble, he just beat him with a stick.

But who knows the pain in Sunan's heart.

Thinking of his cousin, Tang Yi sighed softly. Maybe Sunan wouldn't have thought that the one who could understand him in the world might be the one he has always regarded as the biggest obstacle in his life.

"Lele, who is your opponent of Don Quixote?" Tang Yi looked at Su Lele with a smile.

In front of Tang Yi, Su Lele was undoubtedly very nervous, no matter how cynical he pretended, every time he saw this uncle, he couldn't hide the fear in his heart.

Hearing his uncle's words that seemed to be able to see through his heart at a glance, Su Lele's heart shook, and his shock can be imagined.

Tang Yi smiled again: "Are you rebelling against your father?" Or is it a rebellion against the world, the family? If you want to be a tragic hero, you should work hard and learn what it means to be responsible for your own life. ”

Su Lele didn't dare to say a word, and every word of his uncle seemed to pierce his heart.

Tang Yi smiled again: "At your age, I have also resisted, I feel that our family has no family affection, no warmth, and is a cold grave, but have you seriously understood the people around you?" ”

Su Lele was speechless.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, stay at home for a meal, when you are bored, don't go out to make trouble, come and see your uncle, start with yourself, and care about your relatives first, okay?"

Su Lele nodded silently.

Tang Yi stood up with a smile and said, "Let's go, let's go to the table!" Xiaoling, your first time here, don't be restrained, just treat it as your own home. ”

"Okay." Xiao Ling replied cautiously. There is no imaginary stormy reprimand, no seriousness of official affairs and righteous killing relatives, but this uncle who is not too old is so convincing in just a few words, although it is still not clear who he is, but the feeling of the mountains looking up makes people's minds slightly dizzy. Yes, Lele is afraid of him, how can he not be afraid? The status of his comments in Lele's mind can be imagined.
