Chapter 898 Concept, Favor (Ask for a Monthly Pass!) ）

Xia Xiang's hand rested on the teacup, and he kept turning the teacup, but his eyes fell on a painting behind Wu Caiyang.

It is a landscape painting, which depicts an old man in the wind and snow, on the cold river in a deserted mountain, riding a lonely boat, fishing alone. The painting is very charming, the distant mountains are blurred, only the image of the old man is very clear, and there are snowflakes flying all over the sky, which sets off a kind of lonely, clear and high, and the vicissitudes of the world are turbid.

There is also an inscription poem on the inscription, which is Liu Zongyuan's poem "Jiang Xue": Thousands of mountains and birds fly away, and thousands of people disappear. Lonely boat, fishing alone in the cold river and snow.

"This picture of solo fishing in the ice and snow is good, and the artistic conception is far away, but the old man braves the cold and freezing, alone in the deep mountains and old forests, in the wind and snow, not just for fishing, but waiting for the opportunity. He is fishing for his state of mind, and it can even be said that he is fishing for fame. Xia Xiang did not answer Wu Caiyang's question directly, but talked about the paintings on the wall.

Wu Caiyang is obviously a frequent visitor, he doesn't need to look back to know what painting is behind him, and smiled: "Liu Zongyuan was demoted to Yongzhou, and his mood was naturally not very good, so he wrote this poem "Jiang Xue", which is actually borrowing the scenery to express his nostalgia, literati, he thinks he has a character and integrity, but in the final analysis, it is still a sentence, learn literary and martial arts, and sell it to the emperor's family. Then again, Yongzhou is located in what is now Hunan, and it belongs to the YA tropical monsoon climate, and there will not be such a big wind and snow in the mountains. Let's just say that Liu Zongyuan's art is fictional, but it also shows that he is not politically sensitive enough and was degraded because he did not stand in line and no one said good things for him. ”

In terms of ancient metaphors, it is still a matter of standing in line, Xia Xiang also smiled: "Sometimes it is windy, sometimes it snows, but usually it is wind and rain, wind and snow seem to be two forces, but you have me, I have you, they are inseparable." ”

Wu Caiyang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled: "The words make a little sense, but it's still a quibble, the wind is the wind, the snow is the snow, even if the wind and snow are combined, it is also the power of the wind and the wind, and the snow has the power of the snow, how can it be confused?" You are the wind and the wind, and the snow is the snow, how can it be the wind and the snow again? He raised his chopsticks again and signaled that Xia wanted to eat, "I heard that you and the Fu family are getting closer again?" ”

"It's not really, it's just that there is a little common language in one thing, and in fact, the previous contradictions have not been eliminated." Xia Xiang tasted a bite of food, which was not quite to his taste, not salty or light, tasteless, and a little too ornamented, losing its due taste.

"The all-American paint thing, you did it beautifully, and your wrists were high." Wu Caiyang praised Xia Xiang, which was indeed his sincere words, "Among the various factions, they are all working hard to cultivate successors. The provincial and ministerial-level teams have just been adjusted, and now they are all looking at the younger generation of department-level cadres, you are the youngest generation of department-level cadres, the most dazzling one, the prime minister is very appreciative of you, especially your work in Lang City is very satisfied. But the old man is still a step ahead, and he made a move in advance to transfer you to Tianze City, opening the door to the main hall level for you......"

Wu Caiyang's rare smile naturally revealed again, and it could be seen from his several smiles that his attitude towards Xia Xiang had changed greatly.

The high-level movements revealed by Wu Caiyang just now touched Xia Xiang a lot.

Xia thought clearly, the purpose of Wu Caiyang's meeting with him today was to test his tone, to let him give a clear statement, between the civilian family and the family forces, choose a good team, or in other words, between the prime minister and the Wu family, who is more preferred?

Although there are competitions, conflicts and contradictions between the four families, in the confrontation with the civilian family and the regimental line, the four families have common interests. In general, when it comes to the top level, the division of factions is not simply the division of teams, but the division of governing philosophy and ideology.

Domestically, the struggle between the left and the right has never stopped. The left is biased towards fairness and justice, emphasizing the rational distribution of social resources. The right focuses on efficiency and freedom, emphasizing individual abilities and survival of the fittest. It cannot be said which faction is more perfect, it can only be said that each has its own advantages and disadvantages, and each has its own strengths, but often there are ultra-left and ultra-right figures, and it is easy to appear leftist conservatism and right-wing radicalism.

As a matter of fact, the mainstream economists in China are all influenced by the rightist trend of thought.

The development of the left to the extreme, overemphasizing institutional fairness to evenly distribute social resources is also a kind of pseudo-justice, because everyone's ability and personality are different, and suppressing individual individuality and using power to implement justice is communism in a big pot.

The right, which goes to extremes, overemphasizes freedom and individual ability, while ignoring the social responsibility that everyone should bear, becomes pseudo-freedom. Just as the United States overthrows the regimes of other countries by force on the pretext of promoting so-called democracy, it is an extreme pseudo-freedom and hypocritical justice.

Extreme right-wing systems, usually manifested as crony capitalism and oligarchy dictatorship. At present, the situation in China is not very obvious, and in a few years, Xia Xiang will be very clear that domestic crony capitalism has begun to rise, and some relevant experts have directly pointed out that China has initially entered the era of crony capitalism.

In the final analysis, the current four major families are the germ of crony capitalism. It is no exaggeration to say that even the current country is also in a period of vigorous growth of crony capitalism, such as the second generation of officials and the second generation of rich people who are gradually forming a scale, for example, the children of officials who are becoming more and more criticized will always be officials, and the children of the poor will always be the lack of the poor system, and in the long run, it will eventually lead to class antagonism.

Once a society has formed a class and formed a hostile camp, it is not far from collapse.

Xia Xiang was born from the grassroots and knew that ordinary people wanted to climb to a high position with their own efforts, which was undoubtedly a fool's dream. There is no backer, no backstage, no one appreciates it, and no matter how capable he is in the domestic officialdom, he will eventually make wedding clothes for others. From the point of view of justice, his political stance is actually more inclined to the civilian family.

But the family power is not without merit, and it has now grown to the extent of influencing the political situation, which can only show that there is a soil for growth in the country, and it can only cooperate and cannot suppress it, because it has grown into a behemoth that no one can suppress.

Although Xia Xiang does not have a clear context in his heart, he also has his own political ideas to some extent. I'm afraid that he is the only one who can maintain a good relationship with both civilian forces and family forces in China. Since he has such unique conditions, he has many advantages in himself, and he hopes that on his future political path, he can change from the fulcrum between the four major families in the past to the fulcrum between the family forces headed by the Wu family and the civilian forces headed by the prime minister.

Today's meeting with Wu Caiyang is said to be a landscape painting, and in the end, it will fall to the real line, Xia Xiang also knows that he must give Wu Caiyang an exact answer, otherwise, he may face a political kick.

Because of his meeting with the three major families today, and even the interview with Wu Caiyang tonight, it will reach the ears of the prime minister, plus his transfer is the handiwork of the Wu family, and he has no bottom in his heart whether the prime minister's opinion on him has changed greatly.

What annoyed him a little was that he only cared about sleeping in the afternoon, and he didn't have time to talk to Lao Gu on the phone to find out the prime minister's tone.

However, Xia Xiang still made up his mind in an instant, he is not a person who sways left and right without decision, regardless of whether the prime minister has an opinion on him or not, he must also get close to the Wu family now, because the time is ripe.

"When I have time, I want to thank the old man in person, and thank him for taking care of me all the time. He is an old man, and I want to visit him more in the future......" Xia Xiang gave Wu Caiyang the answer he wanted.

Wu Caiyang smiled with satisfaction: "The old man has long wanted you to be a guest at home, but the conditions have not been very mature, and now I think the time is right, and during the National Day, a family banquet will be arranged." Don't go back to Yan City, just spend the festival in the capital. ”

Xia Xiang nodded in response: "Okay, it's inevitable to trouble Minister Wu." ”

"Huh." Wu Caiyang smiled happily, "Caijiang is also going back to Beijing, and Ruotian, they all want to talk to you, and they will have a lively National Day this year." ”

If you want to take it, you must give it first, Xia Xiang is not a surrender to the family forces, but just a mistake and a mistake.

Saying goodbye to Wu Caiyang, Xia Xiangxiang saw that it was already more than 10 o'clock in the evening, and after thinking about it, he didn't call Lao Gu again.

At night, the family lived in a luxury suite in the hotel, Xia Dong spent the night in the hotel for the first time, and he was so excited that he ran around and refused to sleep, so the mandarin dream between Xia Xiang and Mucuna had to be postponed until after midnight.

The wide and comfortable bed, the unfamiliar environment, and the fatigue of housework, Cao Shumu completely relaxed and was very devoted. After the child reaches the age of three, a woman will gradually mature and give birth to a style, and at the same time, the demand for a certain aspect will be stronger, Xia Xiang is naturally familiar with the physical and psychological maturity of a woman as a person who has come over, and he will do his best.

Early the next morning, Xia Xiang had just gotten up, but unexpectedly received a call from Ai Chengwen.

"Mayor Xia, I heard that you are in the capital, how about having a chance to meet and get together?" Ai Chengwen's tone was very polite.

"......" Xia Xiang was a little uncomfortable with him becoming a sweetheart, too much entertainment, and it was also a helpless thing, so he had to say, "The family came to the capital, I want to accompany them, I'm sorry Secretary Ai, wait for me to have time, and then I will invite you." ”

Ai Chengwen was not angry, and smiled: "It's important to accompany your family, it doesn't matter." Then he revealed a grapevine to Xia Xiang, "I heard that the provincial party committee intends to arrange An Xingyi, the executive vice mayor of Tianze City, to serve as the mayor of Lang City, An Xingyi and Governor Song have a good relationship, Mayor Xia has anything to say about An Xingyi's personality?" ”

It turned out that Ai Chengwen's real intention in calling was this, Xia Xiang smiled: "I really don't have much contact with Mayor An, I went back and met Governor Song and inquired from the side." ”

Ai Chengwen is to understand An Xingyi's behavior in advance, and on the other hand, it is also to prepare in advance and lay the tone for building a team with An Xingyi.

The Song Dynasty installed his own people in Lang City, and also began to cultivate his own forces. Since an executive vice mayor has been transferred from Tianze City, Tianze City is bound to vacate a standing committee member, and if the executive vice mayor is promoted on the spot, it will basically be a standing committee deputy mayor progressively, and as a result, Tianze City will vacate a standing committee deputy mayor.

When the opportunity came, Xia Xiang finished talking to Ai Chengwen on the phone, and immediately called Song Chaodu.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the phone was connected, it was Song Yifan, and when Song Yifan heard that it was Xia Xiang, he said very unhappily: "Brother Xia, you don't go back to Yan City to see me during the holidays, I'm angry." ”

Xia Xiang actually didn't forget Song Yifan, but there were too many things in the capital, the water was too deep, in order not to be flooded, he had to entertain, so he had to coax Song Yifan a few words, fortunately, Xia Xiang had the ability to coax girls, and after a few words, Song Yifan was happy again.

"Dad went to socialize, and he was picked up early in the morning, leaving me home alone, it's really boring." Although she was happy, she was still a little sullen, "Or I'll go to the capital to find it, I just learned to drive, and I just practice my hands." ”

Xia Xiang was startled, and hurriedly persuaded Song Yifan to dispel his thoughts, and after hanging up the phone, he thought about it and dispelled the idea of calling Song Chaodu's mobile phone. There is no need to be in a hurry, after the province is settled, I believe that Song Chaodu will also take the initiative to inform him. Now it's just a rumor, not the final result yet.

There are often many variables in politics.

……

As Xia Xiang expected, just after 8 o'clock, Qiu Xufeng called and invited Xia Xiang to sit at home. Xia Xiangwei thought about it and agreed. He has been a colleague with Qiu Xufeng for a few years, and he has known each other for many years, and his friendship has always been maintained, and now he has the idea of getting closer to the four major families, so he took Cao Shumu and his son to travel together.

Cao Shumu and Xia Xiang have been married for a long time, Xia Xiang really hasn't taken her to see outsiders, mainly because Xia Xiang has been in Yan City before, and Yan City knows almost all the characters in Yan City.

When she heard that she was going to Qiu's house as a guest today, she was surprised and delighted, so she dressed up carefully.

Cao Shumu was already delicate, but now she has more mature charm and is no longer pure, but with her clean beauty and delicate face, she is still an out-and-out beauty. Xia wanted to see her radiant when she dressed up a little, and couldn't help but boast: "In the end, it's my wife, I can handle it." ”

Cao Shumu was infinitely shy, and before he could speak, Xia Dong squeezed into the middle of the two, he wore a suit and tie, and he also wore a suit and leather shoes at a young age, looking formal and funny, looking up at his little face and asking: "Dad, can I handle it?" ”

"Can" Xia thought about picking up his son, "In Dad's mind, his son is the most handsome." ”

"More handsome than your mother?"

"Handsome, much more handsome."

Cao Shumu glanced at Xia Xiang: "Now you will start buying your son, and forget that I brought him up with hard work alone?" ”

Xia Xiang smiled hesitantly.

Xiao Wu drove, Feng Meimei sat in the co-pilot, and Xia Xiang's family sat in the back of the car. Feng Meimei came to the capital to accompany Xiao Wu - originally Xia wanted Xiao Wu to return to Yan City, but Xiao Wu refused to say anything, and the mess of Jiangshan real estate was also handed over to Zhu Hu to take care of, and he is now Xia Xiang's full-time driver and bodyguard.

Halfway through, I received another call from Fu Xianxian.

Xia Xiang was a little strange that Fu Xianfeng didn't call first, but Fu Xianfeng came forward in person, and Fu Xianfeng also invited him to Fu's house to sit, and emphasized that Old Man Fu wanted to thank him in person, and also said that Fu Xian first went to Quanjude to buy roast duck for him......

Who said that Fu Xianxian was a heartless little witch? It has been more than two years since she first met her and eaten his roast duck, and she still remembers it in her heart, which also makes Xia Xiang feel emotional.

Regarding Fu Xianxian's kind invitation, Xia thought about refusing it, but felt that it was inappropriate. The reason for the Fu family is very legitimate, and it is very humane, if he doesn't go, first, it will seem big, and second, it will definitely hurt Fu Xianxian's heart.

I had to hesitate: "I can't leave at noon, I want to be with Xu Feng, I can only be at night." ”

Fu Xianfeng happily agreed: "Okay, I'll wait for you at night." By the way, bring your family along. ”

Bringing your family to a banquet is extraordinary. There is nothing to Qiu's house, and it seems to be a little too enthusiastic to bring family to Fu's house. But then after thinking about it, Xia Xiang still decided to bring his family, and also to show Fu's family to prevent them from suspecting what was between him and Fu Xianxian.

When he arrived at Qiu's house, it was Qiu Xudie who came out to greet him. Qiu Xudie was a little fat, and when she saw Xia Xiang, she first came to say a Western-style hello - hugged Xia Xiang, and then she saw Cao Shumu and Xia Dong behind her, and she didn't feel that there was anything wrong with her actions just now, so she took Cao Shumu's hand and said: "Tut, what a big beauty, no wonder Xia Xiang is not dazzled at all when he sees a beautiful woman outside, it turns out that you have raised his eyes." ”

Cao Shumu has rarely shown up in recent years because of Xia Dong's birth, but you must know that she was born in a real official family, much better than Xia Xiang's background, although she is not as beautiful as Qiu Xudie, but she is also the mayor's daughter, and now she is the governor's daughter and the mayor's wife - the mayor's wife who is less than 30 years old, and she is as delicate as a flower, and there are few people in the country.

Therefore, she is also very good at talking: "My sister is also very beautiful, her skin is so good, oops, her eyelashes are long and curly, she is so beautiful." ”

The topic between women can never be understood by men, Xia Xiang doesn't feel anything in his ears, but Qiu Xudie is overjoyed, and immediately has a common language with Cao Shumu, and the two walk together, chattering non-stop.

Xia Xiang shook his head and smiled, and held hands with his son, the father and son took square steps, and as soon as they walked to the door, they saw the door open, and several people came out of it, the first one was Qiu Xufeng, and the one behind was Mei Xiaomu

How could Mei Xiaomu be in the Qiu family? If Mei Xiaomu only surprised Xia Xiangwei, the person who flashed out from behind Mei Xiaomu almost made him scream - Mei Xiaolin

Mei Xiaomu and Mei Xiaolin both appeared in the Qiu family, it is not surprising if you think about it carefully, it is a concrete embodiment of the deepening relationship between the Mei family and the Qiu family, but for Xia Xiang, the sudden change made him face a disaster - not a political disaster, but a family disaster, because if Mei Xiaolin brought Mei Ting, Mei Ting would definitely call him father when she saw him, in front of the Qiu family, the key is in front of Cao Shumu, how would he end up?
