The venue suddenly fell silent, and everyone's eyes brushed towards Zeng Yi's position.

Yes!

Someone let out a low exclamation, because everyone looked over, but only saw an empty chair, Zeng Yi, who was sitting there two minutes ago, didn't know when it disappeared.

Zhang Weizheng broke out in a cold sweat, when Jiang Lao spoke just now, Zeng Yi was obviously still there, why did he disappear in the blink of an eye!

It happened suddenly, everyone was stunned, Jiang Lao named Zeng Yi's name, this incident was enough to shock anyone beyond measure, who knew that Zeng Yi disappeared like this, but everyone was so shocked that they forgot to think, Jiang Lao was far away in the capital, why could he name Zeng Yi.

Qin Jindang has been in charge of the logistics of the banquet tonight, so he didn't sit at the table, at this time he was standing at the door of the banquet hall, and when he heard Jiang Lao call Zeng Yi's name, he ran outside, he could see clearly at the door, Zeng Yi had just gone out half a minute ago.

went out and chased downstairs, and caught up with Zeng Yi, who was about to leave, Qin Jindang was so anxious that he shouted loudly: "Director Zeng, please stay, please stay!" ”

Zeng Yi turned around and saw Qin Jindang, his brows furrowed, and he didn't know what Qin Jindang was chasing after him, so he said, "What does Director Qin command?" ”

"Director Zeng, ...... Come back with me! Qin Jindang hurriedly ran over, and in a hurry, he grabbed Zeng Yi's arm and wanted to pull it back.

Who knew that under the pull, Zeng Yi didn't move at all, and then pulled, or didn't move, Qin Jindang realized that he was a little out of shape, and hurriedly explained: "Director Zeng, go back quickly, Jiang Lao ordered your name." ”

"Oh?" Zeng Yi showed a surprised expression, he didn't have anything to do with Jiang Lao, how could Jiang Lao name him, but for such a big matter, Qin Jindang shouldn't dare to joke.

Qin Jindang was anxious and said, "Director Zeng, don't hesitate. Jiang Lao can wait! ”

Zeng Yi listened. There was no longer any hesitation, and he went upstairs with Qin Jindang, and at the same time, he secretly said that he was unlucky, he had just finished speaking with Jiang Lao, according to the process, today's banquet would probably end here, and he found a chance to leave. Who knew that as soon as the front foot left, this happened on the back foot, and coincidentally, Jiang Lao also named his name.

Back in the banquet hall, as soon as they entered the door, everyone looked at Zeng Yi again.

Zeng Yi looked calm. There was no panic, but he could feel the different looks in the eyes of others, with surprise, incomprehension, doubt, surprise, envy, and even undisguised jealousy.

Zhang Weizheng stood up, stretched out his hand to greet Zeng Yi, and said, "Zeng ......"

"Xiao Zeng!" Zhao Zhenji took the lead and looked at Zeng Yi with a smile. Cordially beckoned. said: "Come over here, Jiang Lao has something to tell you!" ”

Zhang Weizheng's outstretched hand was withdrawn. behind the trend, slightly cover up the embarrassment just now, and say that Zhao Zhenji's change is not usually fast, and he is still shouting "Comrade Zeng Yi", Zhao Zhenji has already been intimate with "Xiao Zeng", as if he is very familiar with Zeng Yi, as far as he knows, Zhao Zhenji only officially met Zeng Yi when he had a meeting today, and he didn't know where this cordiality came from.

Zeng Yi was under the gaze of everyone, walked quickly towards the position of the first table, and came to Jiang Lao's side, Zeng Yi bowed slightly and said, "Hello Jiang Lao!" ”

Zhao Zhenji pointed to Zeng Yi at this time and introduced: "Elder Jiang, this is Comrade Zeng Yi, who is currently serving as the director of the Municipal Agricultural Committee. ”

Jiang Lao was quite interested, looked Zeng Yi up and down, pressed his right hand on the table, and said, "Always correct comrade, hello!" ”

Zeng Yi was stunned for a moment, and then immediately apologized and said: "Old Jiang, I slipped away just now, I'll review it for you!" Zeng Yi was very surprised, because he knew very well in his heart that the joke of the always correct comrade came from the mouth of the old man, and only the old man's grand duke was present at that time.

Everyone at the scene was stunned, as soon as Jiang Lao spoke, everyone's brains were confused, what does this mean, who is always the right comrade? Why is it called always right comrade? Is there any origin and statement for this title?

When Zeng Yi spoke again, everyone was even more confused, could it be that Jiang Lao's words were criticizing Zeng Yi's slipping behavior just now?

Jiang Lao laughed, it was the first time he saw Zeng Yi, and he couldn't help but appreciate Zeng Yi's improvisation, he opened his mouth to call him the always correct comrade, this little immediately said that he had done wrong, and made it clear that he refused to admit what he was always the right comrade, he was not very old, but he knew how to be modest and serious, this little is a little interesting!

"There is no need for a review!" Jiang Laoyi waved his hand and said: "If you really want to apologize, then write me a letter, write it well, let's write it off, if you don't write it well, you can't review it!" ”

The people present looked at Zeng Yi, and said in their hearts, I don't know where the good luck came from, Jiang Lao went to Zhonghua today, and he didn't have a good tone for anyone, but he was kind to Zeng Yi.

However, Zeng Yi can write calligraphy, why don't these people know about it?

How good Zeng Yi's calligraphy is, it can make Jiang Lao take the initiative to ask for words, and he can't forget it, and he mentioned it twice in a while!

Zhao Zhenji and Zhang Weizheng glanced at each other, and it was obvious that neither of them knew that Zeng Yi could write calligraphy.

Zeng Yi said at this time: "Thank you Jiang Lao for your love, I'm just afraid that my pen is not strong enough, and what I write will be laughable and generous." ”

Jiang Lao's right fingers tapped slightly on the table, and said, "I think you don't want to write it for me!" ”

Zhao Zhenji's heart skipped a beat, it felt like something had been hammered violently, listening to this conversation, it seemed that Jiang Lao still had to write Zeng Yi's words, what was going on, why was it so difficult to figure out, with Jiang Lao's identity and status, whose words he wanted, it was simply a simple matter, not to mention the words of contemporary calligraphers, it was the true handwriting of ancient calligraphy, and it was not difficult to find them.

Zhang Weizheng is also extremely surprised, he still has some background, and he also understands the preferences of most senior leaders, as far as Zhang Weizheng knows, Jiang Lao does not have any calligraphy hobbies, and never likes to collect calligraphy and paintings.

Zhang Weizheng thought about it for a long time, but he didn't understand it. But he figured out something else. Zeng Yi not only has the ability to reach the sky, but also has the connections to the sky, other than that, there is no other explanation!

"Jiang Lao asked you to write, you can write!" Zhao Zhenji laughed

voice, said: "Go and get the paper, ink, pen and inkstone!" ”

Qin Jindang was not far away, and when he heard the order, he immediately asked people to prepare paper, ink, pen and inkstone. These things are all readily available. Usually there are leaders to Zhonghua City, as the landlord, Zhonghua City always has to implore the leaders to leave a few ink treasures. Leaders also like this link, after a few words of modesty, they will always show a few hands reluctantly under the enthusiasm and difficulty. In order to show their attainments in calligraphy and extraordinary cultivation in culture.

In less than a minute, a large calligraphy table was carried into the banquet hall, and Qin Jindang went over to lay out the rice paper, set up the pen and ink, and then stood aside.

Zeng Yi looked at Jiang Lao at this time and said, "Jiang Lao, then I dare to write a few words, if I don't write well." Thank you for your understanding. ”

"It's not well written. I'll let you write a review on the spot! Jiang Lao said lightly, but his tone was unquestionable. No one doubted that he would really let Zeng Yi do the outrageous thing of writing a review with a brush on the spot.

Zeng Yi smiled bitterly at Jiang Lao twice, confessed his hand, and then walked to the calligraphy table, first dipped the brush in ink, but did not hurry to put down the pen, but stood there and made ideas.

The people in the banquet hall all gathered at the calligraphy table, waiting to see how Zeng Yi's calligraphy was, and also wondering what kind of words Zeng Yi would write for Jiang Lao.

Li Jietong's mood is very complicated at this time, he has always regarded himself as knowledge, and he looks down on Zeng Yi as a mud-legged cadre who came out of the grassroots level, today Jiang Lao made a special trip to Zhonghua to ask Zeng Yi for words, which really surprised Li Jietong, and also made Li Jietong's heart a little sour, because he usually likes to write calligraphy, and he thinks that he writes well, but he is not known to the world.

Zeng Yi, who has mud legs, dares to write in public, or inscribes for Jiang Lao, is there any reason for this?

Li Jietong doesn't think that Zeng Yi can come up with any good sentences, with the ink in Zeng Yi's stomach, it is nothing more than to write what old-fashioned words such as "Lao Ji Fu Fang" and "Mainstay", or combine Jiang Lao's surname to make a "Jiang is still old and spicy!" ”。

None of this is new, and it's not elegant!

While Li Jietong was jealous, he also hoped that Zeng Yi would make a fool of himself, and at the same time, he was also wondering in his heart what kind of sentence he would write if he changed himself, to be honest, he couldn't wait to write for Zeng Yi in the past.

Zeng Yi stood in front of the calligraphy table for a minute, then he had an idea, picked up the pen with confidence, and then lifted his breath and concentrated, moved the pen like flying, and wrote two lines of words on the rice paper in front of him in a blink of an eye.

Qin Jindang was the closest, and immediately read out Zeng Yi's words, and said: "I hope that the people are full of warmth and work hard to get out of the mountains and forests!" Qin Jindang read very slowly, but the words were very clear, and the people on the scene could hear them clearly.

Li Jietong's face turned pale at that time, he knew calligraphy, as soon as Zeng Yi put down the pen, he could see that this was an absolute expert! After Zeng Yi put away the pen and took a look at it, Li Jietong's heart didn't know what it was like, he usually felt that his words were still passable, but compared with Zeng Yi's words in front of him, his works were simply a pediatric graffiti!

The two are not on the same level at all, and there is a difference between heaven and earth.

Zeng Yi's words are completed in one go, and the indomitable momentum can't be stopped, and there is a heroic atmosphere of "although tens of millions of people are going"; The writing is even more open and closed, there is a kind of cloudy and cloudy, invisible but free to retract and release the spirit; And the glyph is high and lonely, and the image of a lone traveler who "everyone is drunk and I am awake" jumps on the paper, the background is lonely, but the steps are extremely firm.

Whether it is the word, the shape, the meaning, the god, this character has reached a very high degree of fit, from any point of view, this character is impeccable, enough to be famous for a hundred generations.

The scene was quiet, and no one commented or praised it, because everyone didn't know where these two sentences came from and what they meant, so they didn't dare to speak rashly.

Zeng Yi put down the pen and glanced at his own character again, he was very satisfied with his state today, if it was before, Zeng Yi felt that he probably wouldn't be able to write this state, but after becoming the "public enemy" of Zhonghua City, Zeng Yi instead let go of everything, more free and open-minded in his mentality, and more domineering and confident in his actions, which is completely consistent with what the word in front of him wants to express.

Jiang Lao stood up at this time and slowly paced to the front of this character, Jiang Lao was not very good at calligraphy, but he could also see that this character was extraordinary. Jiang Lao has no doubts about Zeng Yi's calligraphy level, the old people all hang Zeng Yi's characters in the study, how can Zeng Yi's level be low?

"I hope that the people are full of warmth and work hard to get out of the mountains and forests!" Jiang Lao read these two sentences again and said, "The meaning of the words is good!" Who can tell the origin of this sentence? ”

The scene was still silent, many of the people present were secretaries, and some people had already thought of the source of this sentence, but they hadn't figured out how to say it.

Li Jietong stood up at this time and said: "Jiang Lao, this sentence comes from Yu Qian's "Song of Coal", which is about coal coming from the deep mountains and burning itself, but in exchange for the saturation and warmth of the toiling masses, it breaks the dark night. Yu Qian uses this poem to be self-disciplined, take the world as his own responsibility, and forget himself for the common people. ”

Jiang Lao bowed slightly, it turned out that this sentence came from the mouth of Yu Qian, the minister of the Ming Dynasty, this is a great character, but the end is a little miserable.

Li Jietong was encouraged and continued: "Yu Qian also has another popular poem, called "Song of Lime", which has a sentence that can correspond to the sentence in front of him, called 'Regardless of the powder and bones, you must leave your innocence in the world'. Yu Qian believes that being a man should be as innocent as lime, and being an official should be as selfless as coal. ”

When Zeng Yi heard this, he was a little impressed by Li Jietong, this person's ability to be a mayor is limited, but it is definitely more than enough to be a teacher, basically what he wants to express has been said by Li Jietong. Zeng Yi did think about writing the sentence "to leave innocence in the world" just now, but in the end he still wrote "work hard to get out of the mountains and forests".

Yu Qian's two sentences are about one black and one white, but from ancient times to the present, it is almost impossible to find people who can take care of both black and white at the same time.

Officialdom is the biggest dye vat in the world, if you want to be innocent, you are likely to be destined to be a mediocre and incompetent official, in contrast, Zeng Yi admires the coal-like official more, although the appearance is black, but the heart is incomparably blazing red.

Jiang Lao listened to Li Jietong's explanation, his brows furrowed, and said, "Well spoken!" If everyone present can encourage themselves with this, the cause of our Zhonghua City will definitely be able to do a good job, and the people will definitely be satisfied! After a pause, Jiang Lao said: "Xiao Zeng's handwriting, I accepted it!" (To be continued.) )
