When the people of Ruining were panicked, Chen Mingyuan had already quietly returned to Zhonghai City and started the Spring Festival holiday in advance, just avoiding the nuisance of those investors.

As for those calls asking for help, he also pushed them back, bluntly saying that this was a decision of the military leadership, not something that the local government could interfere with, just let everyone wait for news during the New Year with peace of mind, take specific countermeasures, and wait for the next year.

He is not worried about the shutdown of the film and television city, and plans to take advantage of this cold wave to cool down the overheated market, reshuffle the cards by the way, remove speculators such as Jia Kui, and wait until the situation in the strait gradually eases down, and then let Lu Weiting clean up the mess.

In the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, Chen Mingyuan got up early in the morning and drove to the cemetery on Chongming Island with his mother Yang Xiuning.

"Bye-bye, let your dad bless you with a smooth and smooth year in the coming year."

Yang Xiuning carefully wiped the tombstone with a handkerchief, stood up, looked at the portrait of her deceased husband, and her face in the cold wind looked a little gloomy.

Chen Mingyuan took three long incense sticks from the table next to him, lit them, stood in front of the tombstone, bowed respectfully, and then inserted them into the copper incense burner on the tombstone.

"Mom, you have to take care."

Chen Mingyuan saw that his mother was still silently distracted, and walked over to help her tuck the scarf around her neck.

Yang Xiuning gently patted the back of his son's hand, a faint smile appeared, and said: "It's okay, more than 20 years have passed, no matter how deep the love is, it should be almost consumed, now I am a little emotional, this year, I can finally give your father a complete explanation, if he knows the water, sees your current achievements, and is about to get married and start a family, maybe how happy he should be...... As for me, I finally lived up to your father's deathbed wishes, so I can rest assured. ”

"You're not at ease yet." Chen Mingyuan hugged his mother's shoulders and said with a smile: "When my child and Jiayin's child is born, I have to ask you to help me bring it more." ”

"You kid, you haven't even written a word, so you're in a hurry to arrange an errand for me." Yang Xiuning sneered, but the haze in his heart was dispelled a lot, "But my mother is really looking forward to holding her grandson as soon as possible, and after working hard for most of her life, I really want to enjoy a burst of family fun." ”

Chen Mingyuan couldn't help but feel a little sad, his father died early, his mother supported the family business independently, and he couldn't stay with him for a long time, he was really ashamed to be a son, "Mom, in the future, Jiayin and I will be filial to you!" ”

"If you can have this heart, your mother will be very content." Yang Xiuning smiled with relief, brushed his ears, and said, "Okay, it's not early, let's go back first, have a Chinese New Year's Eve dinner at night, and have a bunch of things to do." ”

Few people will pay respects to their ancestors in the Chinese New Year's Eve, so there are few people in the entire cemetery, and the mother and son slowly walk on the stone steps leading to the bottom of the mountain, and the surroundings are quiet.

"Hey, Mingyuan, I'm asking you something." As soon as he got into the car, Yang Xiuning suddenly asked, "Recently, has Ren Tianping contacted you?" ”

Chen Mingyuan replied while lighting the fire: "I haven't been in touch for a while, his company's project in Ruining, most of the time his cousin comes to me directly, but ...... I haven't seen anyone for a month. ”

"...... like this" Yang Xiuning nodded lightly, thoughtful, pondered for a moment, and said lightly: "What about you, don't have too much contact with them for the time being, especially when it comes to private matters, don't get involved...... That's what your grandfather meant, too. ”

Chen Mingyuan's heart moved, and he saw a trace of worry between his mother's eyebrows, and said tentatively: "Mom, something happened to Ren Tianping, right?" ”

"Pretty much...... It is said that there were some problems with his business in Yongcheng, and he even attracted the attention of the central government, and he was afraid that he would not be able to get out of it for a while. Yang Xiuning shook his head and sighed, and said, "You don't know that some of his businesses are actually disgraceful, and then ...... His relationship with that side has always been too close, and it is inevitable that it will be too eye-catching. ”

Yang Xiuning wanted to be more subtle, but in front of his son, he still pointed out the connection between Ren Tianping and the Zhonghai faction.

Chen Mingyuan's face remained unchanged, and he said lightly: "Mom, in your opinion, can Ren Tianping get through this hurdle?" ”

"It's hard to say...... However, Zhonghai's side will definitely try to keep him. Yang Xiuning muttered in a low voice: "In short, don't have too deep contact with him for the time being, just spend the next half a year." ”

Chen Mingyuan sighed secretly, looking at the situation, the attitude of his mother and family was still too 'optimistic', and he was far from expecting Ren Tianping's tragic end and the series of turbulent waves behind.

In the eyes of most people in the circle, Ren Tianping is generally a victim of the power game between the two factions, but Chen Mingyuan knows that this is a collision between the old and new ruling factions, and Ren Tianping is more like the first domino of dominoes.

Previously, he had indeed tried to avoid this crisis, but unfortunately, Ren Tianping's involvement with the Zhonghai system was too deep for human beings to change, based on this, he could only try to get the family out of the impact of this crisis......

…………

Back at the old house, when Chen Mingyuan got out of the car, he found that the No. 1 car of the Municipal Party Committee was parked in the courtyard, and he knew that Cen Ruiwen had come to visit the old man.

Yang Xiuning also turned his head and glanced at Cen Ruiwen's car, remained silent for the time being, knocked on the door with Chen Mingyuan and entered the house, and saw that Zhang Rongxian and Chen Xiaomei were there, so he asked, "Brother-in-law, eldest sister, when did my uncle come?" ”

"Oh, it's been half an hour, talking to dad upstairs." Zhang Rongxian said with a smile, but his expression was a little unnatural, while Chen Xiaomei walked quickly, pulled Yang Xiuning, chewed her tongue and said, "We just came, but listening to the movement upstairs, it seems that the situation is not quite right...... Well, it's like there's some quarrel, you think something can't happen, right? ”

Yang Xiuning looked upstairs and frowned slightly.

Chen Mingyuan also understood, and after thinking about it, Cen Ruiwen and the old man had differences on some points of view.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for Cen Ruiwen to walk down the stairs with a dull sound of the door closing upstairs, and soon saw Cen Ruiwen walking down the stairs quickly, his brows locked deeply, and his eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were filled with a deep haze.

"Uncle, I'm going to talk to my dad so soon, you might as well sit a little longer, and the meal will start soon." Chen Xiaomei suppressed her confusion and hurriedly greeted her with a smile, "It just so happens that Mingyuan and his wife are back, and in a while, Xiaolan and Guoliang's family should also arrive, and everyone will have a reunion dinner in the evening." ”

Cen Ruiwen didn't seem to be in a good mood, so he waved his hand and said, "I'll have something to do later, so I won't stay long." ”

After speaking, he didn't even have any extra greetings, and pushed the door directly.

"This ......" Chen Xiaomei was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zhang Rongxian, looking at this situation, Cen Ruiwen and the old man really had a fierce dispute, otherwise why would he just throw his face and leave.

You know, in the past few decades, Cen Ruiwen has been looking forward to his own old man, how could he make the relationship so stiff in the Chinese New Year's Eve!

Yang Xiuning also realized that something was wrong, pondered for a moment, and said, "Mingyuan, you hurry upstairs to see grandpa." ”

"Yes, Mingyuan, you go up to see grandpa first, and then you call us if you have something." Chen Xiaomei also hurriedly agreed, presumably the old man was angry at this time, and the situation was unclear, and a few of his own people ran up to ask, it was inevitable that they would touch their heads, so they simply let the old man's favorite grandson go up to explore the truth first.

Chen Mingyuan agreed, hurriedly stepped on the stairs and went up, pushed open the door of the study, and saw the old man sitting behind the desk, staring at the table intently, his face was also cloudy.

"Grandpa...... Are you alright? Chen Mingyuan walked in front of him lightly and carefully observed the old man's complexion.

The old man woke up like a dream, looked up, saw his grandson, oh twice, and said, "Have you finished worshipping your father with your mother?" ”

Chen Mingyuan nodded, took the blanket from the rocking chair, walked over and covered the old man's lap, and said, "The weather is cold, you must take care of yourself." ”

The old man forced a smile and said, "It's okay, it's warm in the house, besides, doesn't the hospital say that my body and bones have improved a lot recently, at least I can live a stable ......" Halfway through his words, he coughed violently.

Chen Mingyuan hurriedly helped pat the old man's back, and said nervously: "Otherwise, I'd better let the doctor come and diagnose you again." ”

"No need to ......" The old man took two deep breaths, relieved himself, waved his hand and said: "It's just that it's not good for a while, just catch your breath." ”

Chen Mingyuan was silent for a while, and said softly: "When my uncle went down just now, his face was not very good-looking......

"Ignore him!" The old man shook his head and sighed, and said: "He, his career is too smooth, his lust for power is consumed, and he is becoming more and more presumptuous, which is simply bold!" ”

Chen Mingyuan looked at the regret on the old man's face, and while making a new cup of tea, he said, "Is it because of the recent incident in Tianyi Group?" ”

"You know it all." The old man's brows tightened again, and he said in a deep voice: "At the beginning, I reminded him not to get too close to this businessman, but he didn't listen, hmph, now in the huge Zhonghai, who still doesn't know that Ren Tianping is his Cen Ruiwen's descendant, now it's okay, the fire is burning, but he is still obsessed, and he wants to protect this black-hearted businessman, and the new ruling group is really vegetarian!" ”

Even if he had been prepared, Chen Mingyuan's heart was still heavy.

It is said that power is easy to make people lose their essence, Cen Ruiwen is undoubtedly a typical example, in recent years, with Cen Ruiwen's position in Zhonghai as stable as Mount Tai, and was pushed into the political situation by the faction, Cen Ruiwen is faintly no longer controlled by the old man, his style of acting has gradually become arbitrary, his own way, and even for his own selfish desires and factional interests, out-of-character behavior is not uncommon.

Among them, the indifference to the current ruling group is the most worrying for the old man!

From the old man's words, Chen Mingyuan can infer that Cen Ruiwen and the old man just now had a dispute over how to deal with Ren Tianping, and the old man must have hoped that Cen Ruiwen could do his best to clear up the connection with Ren Tianping and avoid getting caught on fire, however, Cen Ruiwen must have not taken the old man's warning to heart, and at a deeper level, Cen Ruiwen underestimated the determination of the new ruling group to take action this time!

Xiang Zhuang's sword dance is intended for Pei Gong, Chen Mingyuan sees the situation very clearly, the new ruling group is only the first step to win Ren Tianping, and the bigger goal of those people is Cen Ruiwen and the Zhonghai Department!

The poor picture will be revealed after all, but when Cen Rui came over in vain, it was too late.
