"The Indulgence of the Flowers of the City" (ask for subscription)

Because of Wu Qingzhi's sudden death, the situation in the capital suddenly has a kind of tension, and this year's Lantern Festival is not as lively as in previous years.

Everyone has their own careful thinking and calculations, the people close to the Wu family and the factional forces of the Wu family are naturally restless, in the past half a month, under the command of Wu Qingzhi, they have frequently competed with the Song family in a high-profile manner, and from time to time they have engaged in some political and political struggles, and have made a lot of gains, but this is all because of the banner of Wu Qingzhi and the Wu family, and now that Wu Qingzhi is dead, the Wu family is in a mess, even if Chairman Wu can temporarily suppress the scene, but what about the future? What about after the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China? Can the Wu family still prosper?

On the day of the Lantern Festival, some of the children of the Song family and the children of the family close to the Song family bought a few big cars of fireworks and ran to the Wu family's villa area in Miaoxiang Mountain to put them off, which made the Wu family very angry, and the two sides fought and seriously injured several people.

The Song family didn't do this authentically, after all, death is great, so after those Song family children were released, Song Qingyun taught them a hard lesson, and spread the word to grounded them for a month, as for whether they were really afraid, only God knows.

However, the Song family did not apologize to the Wu family for this incident, the two families are already mortal enemies, so there is no need to hide it anymore, not to mention that the Song family has just lost a general at the previous political and governance meeting, and it is very face-saving if they don't take the opportunity to make trouble and counterattack.

After Wu Qingzhi's death, the Wu family naturally had to be busy with his funeral, but he didn't expect that there was a lot of disputes in the process of handling the funeral, as soon as a person died, the coffin would be closed, and ordinary people still had an epitaph, not to mention the former party and state leaders like Wu Qingzhi, the country must give him an official evaluation and make a final conclusion on his life's political achievements and virtues, that is, a servant!

Don't underestimate this obituary, to a certain extent, the quality of the obituary is very important, especially now that it is a change of office, in the case of Wu Qiguo's unknown future, it is no exaggeration to say that the quality of Wu Qingzhi's obituary can even determine his political and political fate.

If the official obituary is highly evaluated, then it represents the recognition of Wu Qingzhi's political achievements and virtues by the central and central leadership, and now that he has passed away, the central government will more or less take care of Wu Qiguo, if the official evaluation is not good, but it means that the central leadership is not very satisfied with Wu Qingzhi's political achievements and virtues, then Wu Qiguo's future will be completely over.

Chairman Wu's proclamation is "an outstanding, a great, and an outstanding," that is, an outstanding leader of the party and the state, a great Marxist, an outstanding proletarian revolutionary, a proletarian revolutionary, and a time-tested communist fighter!

However, after this servant reported to the government, the Central Committee, and the General Office of the Central Committee, it caused widespread controversy, and some people thought that this evaluation was too high, because the outstanding leaders of the party and the state, great Marxists, are usually only used for the supreme leader, although Wu Qingzhi was also a member of the Standing Committee of the Political and Political Affairs Bureau, but his ranking was relatively low, and he could not afford this evaluation.

Chairman Wu was originally a kind man, but for the sake of this obituary, he fought on the basis of reason at the special meeting of the political and administrative bureaus, and even slapped the table and opponents for the sake of this obituary, and finally made concessions under the influence of Jiang Shuji and General Manager Zhu, and finally made a conclamation to be an outstanding leader of the party and the state, an outstanding Marxist, a proletarian revolutionary, a proletarian revolutionary, and a time-tested communist fighter!

The specifications of this servant notice are also quite high, and opponents still think it is inappropriate, after all, the old man of the Xue family, who was the same era as Wu Qingzhi, did not have such a high evaluation when he died last year, but the central government has already made a final decision, and everyone hides their dissatisfaction in their stomachs.

After the official release of this servant notice, the Wu family's hanging heart was also put down, as long as there was no accident, it was a foregone conclusion that Wu Qiguo would be transferred to the deputy department in advance, and it could be regarded as a comfort.

These disputes have nothing to do with Chen Chen, who is hiding at home and coaxing Xiaoru to play, but because of Wu Qingzhi's sudden death, he and Xie Lanlan postponed their trip to Hargeisa. , the twentieth day of the first month. The farewell ceremony of Wu Qingzhi's body was held in the Babaoshan Funeral Home, several members of the Standing Committee of the Political and Governance Bureau were all present, even Song Qingyun came regardless of his previous suspicions, and several old people of the same era as Wu Qingzhi also came to see him off for the last time.

Mourning is low. Bai Huā is pure, the atmosphere is solemn, solemn, several members of the Standing Committee walked to the body of Wu Qingzhi lying in the white huā cluster, covered with the national flag to say goodbye, and then shook hands with the relatives of the Wu family one by one and whispered comfort, but when it was Song Qingyun's turn, the Wu family's performance was not very friendly, Wu Qiguo's expression was cold, and a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy beside him did not even hide his resentment.

"Who is this kid?" Chen Chen, who was standing in the corner, touched Xie Lanlan's arm and asked in surprise.

"Wu Lao's grandson, Wu Qiguo's son, Wu Dongdong, is only fourteen years old this year!" Mei Shu shook her head and said softly: "The child just can't be angry, and he doesn't look at what kind of occasion this is." ”

Chen Chen was slightly surprised and said, "Wu Qiguo is over fifty years old, why is his son so young?" ”

Xie Lanlan said in a low voice: "Wu Qiguo also has an eldest daughter, but she was born to her ex-wife, and she has lived in the United States with her mother for a long time and rarely comes back. ”

"But today is the day of Wu Qingzhi's cremation, and she won't come back to send one?" Chen Chen was a little puzzled, even if it was a daughter born to his ex-wife, it was also the bloodline of the Wu family, why didn't he come today?

Xie Lanlan lowered his head and chuckled: "You don't know, Wu Qiguo's wife is very powerful, a typical Hedong lion, very fond of playing tricks, and jealous, he has been in charge of him all these years, Wu Qiguo is not allowed to see his ex-wife and daughter, and naturally they will not be allowed to come back for the funeral." ”

Chen Chen's contempt and contempt for Wu Qiguo deepened again, and he said in a low voice: "It's really not a man to be ridden on the head by his wife!" ”

At this time, the farewell ceremony for Wu Qingzhi's body had already been carried out halfway, and several members of the Standing Committee and the older generation of leading cadres, as well as several members of the political and administrative bureaus who were extremely heavy, had already gone through the motions, and it would soon be Xie Lanlan's turn.

Mei Shu glanced at Chen Chen and said in a low voice, "You really want to go up too?" Seeing the Wu family's attitude towards Song Qingyun, you should know that they will definitely not give you a good face. ”

Chen Chen shrugged and said, "It doesn't matter, the dead are the greatest, I don't care about them in general."

Xie Chengguo and others originally did not agree with him to follow him to Babaoshan to participate in the farewell ceremony of Wu Qingzhi's body, firstly, he was young, and secondly, he had many contradictions and deep grievances with the Wu family, and he was afraid that something would happen, but Chen Chen insisted on going, and in the end, it was Old Man Xie who nodded before he could come.

The reason why Chen Chen had to come was for two purposes, one was to see Wu Qingzhi's body and find out the reason for his sudden death, and the other was to see if he could find an opportunity to say a few words to Leng Yanmei and Ning Xuan and ask her about her plans.

Ning Xuan's current status in the Wu family can be seen from the position she stands, logically speaking, as Wu Qibang's widow, she should stand behind Wu Qiguo, but now she is standing at the end of the Wu family, and even the children of the Wu family of Wu Peng are in front of her.

However, looking at Leng Yanmei's calm and pampered face, Chen Chen knew that she didn't care, justice was in the hearts of the people, and the Wu family's arrangement was so embarrassing that it was the Wu family's own face.

In the sound of mourning music, Chen Chen and Xie Lanlan slowly stepped forward and stood in front of Wu Qingzhi's body, everyone present was a little surprised when they saw a teenage boy appear, some people who knew the grievances between Chen Chen and the Wu family couldn't help but whisper, and the people of the Wu family all sank their faces when they saw him, but no one dared to speak because of the occasion.

Looking at the old man lying in the white bush with a pale face and no life, Chen Chen couldn't help but sigh, although he didn't have a good impression of the Wu family, he and Wu Qingzhi had no grudges, which was also one of the reasons why he rescued Wu Qingzhi in the first place.

"Let's go, you don't know how many people are watching you, I'm uncomfortable standing next to you." Xie Lanlan said in a low voice.

Chen Chen nodded, stared at Wu Qingzhi for the last time, and was about to leave, when he suddenly found something unusual, and couldn't help but lose his voice: "Huh? This is? ”

"What's wrong?" Xie Lanlan asked in surprise.

Chen Chen's face was solemn, he took two steps forward, walked to Wu Qingzhi's body in an uproar, and looked down carefully.

Everyone in the Xie family present was frightened into sweat by his sudden reckless move, my little ancestor, what kind of place is this, what kind of occasion is this, can we go through the motions in a peaceful and orderly manner? Is it necessary for you to play so thrillingly, in front of so many big guys?

Xie Lanlan was so frightened that she pulled his hand desperately, and said in a low voice: "You are crazy, go quickly!" ”

Chen Chen frowned and said, "Don't make noise, let me take a good look." ”

"What do you see? What's so nice about a dead man? Are you sick? "The Xie family didn't let Chen Chen come before, because they were afraid that he would mess around at the farewell ceremony, so they didn't send Xie Lanlan to look at him, but they didn't expect that something would happen.

Chen Chenli ignored her, his brows furrowed, and mōmō muttered with his chin, "How can this be?"

Why did all the blood vessels in the brain burst? Even if it's an urgent cerebral hemorrhage, it won't be so outrageous? Something must have gone wrong! ”

Xie Lanlan was still desperately pulling him, but Chen Chen ignored it, and under the horrified gaze of everyone, he put his hand into the coffin and gently raised Wu Qingzhi's head ......!.
