When I arrived in the capital, it was already late at night, the cold wind was biting, and the people who had just gotten off the plane immediately let the temperature in the capital come to a disadvantage.

"I've arranged it, during this time in the capital, you will live in our Beijing Office in Longshan City!" Yan Zhidao also felt that the weather was a little unbearable, and said: "I am in a hurry today, and I didn't even have a good dinner, let's go, let's go back to the Beijing Office first, eat a mutton shabu, take a hot bath, and sleep beautifully." ”

Zeng Yi said: "Mayor Yan, I still have some personal matters to do at night, and I may not be able to go to the Beijing Office." ”

Yan Zhidao was stunned, what did Meng Qunsheng tell Zeng Yi on the phone, why was he so nervous that he didn't even have time to eat, so he had to say: "Okay, let's go out first, the car from the Beijing Office should be waiting outside!" ”

The two walked forward along the crowd, preparing to get on the airport's pick-up ferry, Xu Li was carrying the local products prepared by Yan Zhidao in the back, which had to weigh more than 100 catties! Zeng Yi wanted to help, but Xu Li refused, he didn't want Zeng Yi's injury to have another problem.

Suddenly there was a shout from outside the crowd: "Zeng Yi! Zeng Yi! ”

The three of them stopped and looked out, and there was a car with a ** license plate parked not far away, Long Meixin didn't see Zeng Yi, just stood by the car, put her hands on her mouth and shouted.

"I'm here!" Zeng Yi raised his hand and said to Yan Zhi: "Mayor Yan, I have a friend who came to pick me up!" So saying, he parted the crowd and walked over there.

Yan Zhidao was a little emotional, this Zeng Yi's connections in the military circles seem to be very broad, there are military vehicles escorted directly into the airport in Rongcheng, and when they arrive in the capital, there are military vehicles waiting on the tarmac, you must know that this is the capital, and there is no ability to reach the sky, how can you enter here at will. It seems that Xiao Yan is not mistaken, when Zeng Yi came to the capital last time, he should have been picked up by a military vehicle.

Thinking of this, Yan Zhidao rubbed his face, which was a little stiff by the wind, changed it to a smile, and followed. His airport wants to be approved, it is impossible without the nod of the military, which is almost the most headache for all people in China who are involved in the airport project, and the air traffic control is firmly grasped in the hands of the military, as long as it is related to the sky, it will definitely not bypass the approval of the military.

Long Meixin saw that Zeng Yi's neck was wrapped around the scarf she gave last time, and she smiled happily at that time, and said: "You just want to come to the capital, don't be in such a hurry, I will come to pick you up in the middle of the night to see what the wind is blowing!" ”

Zeng Yi laughed and said: "Originally, when I got off the plane, I still felt that the capital didn't seem to welcome me very well, and the north wind obviously wanted to back, but when I saw Miss Long, I immediately felt the spring-like enthusiasm of the people in the capital, and even my heart was about to melt!" ”

Phew! Long Meixin took a sip, "If you don't have humor, don't learn other people's oily tones, you're going to cold me to death!" ”

Luo Gangyong had been standing by the car and smoking, and when he saw Zeng Yi, he stepped on the cigarette butt, stepped forward and stretched out his hand with a smile, and said, "Zeng Yi, let's meet again!" "Hello, Commander Luo!" Zeng Yi smiled and stretched out his hand and shook it with Luo Gangyong, "Why did you alarm you too, it makes me very scared!" ”

"Haha, you can't call it that, Deputy Chief of Staff, Deputy Chief of Staff!" Luo Gangyong smiled, but he didn't correct Zeng Yi's call too much, since the last incident, he, the deputy chief of staff who was on the very edge, was suddenly called by Zhai Lao to Yuquan Mountain to give a lecture in person, which means that Luo Gangyong's promotion to deputy commander is basically a foregone conclusion, and he will be officially appointed a year ago.

"Let's get in the car first, a mouth, my teeth are about to be frozen!" Long Meixin stomped her feet, the wind at this airport was really strong, and it had just snowed two days ago, it was really cold and a little unbearable, and the wind was blowing on her face, like thousands of small knives cutting.

Yan Zhidao was a little anxious, and without waiting for Zeng Yi's introduction, he took the initiative to ask: "Xiao Zeng, these two are your friends in the capital, fortunately, fortunately." ”

Zeng Yi smiled and said: "Let me introduce, this is Mayor Yan of Longshan City, my old leader, and this time I took Mayor Yan's hitchhike." ”

"Luo Gangyong!" Luo Gangyong stretched out his hand, took the initiative to say hello to Yan Zhidao, and said, "Hello Mayor Yan, I am fortunate to meet, I am fortunate to meet." ”

"It's my honor to know Commander Luo!" Yan Zhidao politely stretched out his hands and shook them, he had heard Zeng Yi's introduction just now, and knew that this was a general who was about to be promoted to commander. Yan Zhidao still has some understanding of the establishment of the ** troops, the ** troops do not have commanders at the provincial level, only the general captain of the corps, and those who can be called commanders can only be the head of the ** headquarters.

Yan Zhidao was secretly surprised, Zeng Yi's face was too big, and when he arrived in the capital in the middle of the night, he could still let the head of the ** headquarters come to greet him.

"This is my niece, and Zeng Yi is a good friend!" As soon as Luo Gangyong briefly introduced Long Meixin, he changed the topic and said, "Mayor Yan, I don't know you are coming, I really can't help it, or just squeeze in the car, and I will take you for a while." ”

"No, no!" Yan Zhidao waved his hand again and again, but he was guessing Long Meixin's identity, looking at Luo Gangyong's meaning, it seemed that Long Meixin's background was even deeper, "The comrades from the Beijing Office are already waiting outside, and they can get in the car when they go out, so they won't trouble Commander Luo." ”

After speaking, Yan Zhidao smiled at Long Meixin, and said to Zeng Yi: "Xiao Zeng, since Commander Luo is here to pick you up, you can go." ”

Zeng Yi smiled apologetically and said, "Then let's meet again tomorrow morning, and then I will go to the Beijing Office to find Mayor Yan." After speaking, Zeng Yi said to Xu Li: "Da Xu, then you will work hard and send Mayor Yan to the Beijing Office." ”

Luo Gangyong originally thought that Xu Wei was Yan Zhidao's secretary or driver, but now when he heard Zeng Yi say this, he knew that he was wrong, and said: "When I arrive in the capital, this kind of thing naturally has to be done by my people, Xiao Li!" ”

Luo Gangyong's driver stepped forward, slammed his heel, and didn't wait for Luo Gangyong to give another order, he directly snatched the things in Xu Li's hand, and walked to the ferry car on his shoulder.

"It's not appropriate, it's not appropriate!" Yan Zhidao hurriedly stopped.

Luo Gangyong smiled and said, "Mayor Yan won't even give me this opportunity to help?" ”

"It's not appropriate!" Yan Zhidao's face was a little anxious, "It's too troublesome for Commander Luo." ”

"Mayor Yan, don't be polite, it's a little late today, if you have a chance in the future, let's get together again!" Luo Gangyong said very politely, and blocked Yan Zhidao's words, which means that it is decided, and I don't have time to say these kind words to you anymore.

Yan Zhidao had no choice but to give up and said, "Then wait for Commander Luo to have free time, and I will visit you!" ”

Everyone parted, Zeng Yi got into Luo Gangyong's car, Xu Li naturally sat in the driver's seat, and without waiting for anyone's instructions, he started the car and began to drive out.

The lights at night were a little dim, Luo Gangyong saw Zeng Yi's driver a little clearly at this time, and said in his heart that this is not an ordinary person, it seems that he also came down from the army, strange, the last time I saw Zeng Yi, he didn't bring a driver, and he is not such a high-profile person.

Waiting for the car to drive on the road into the city, Long Meixin said: "Staff Officer Zhang will stay on the mountain at night, let me pick you up, you will live in the city tonight, and go up the mountain tomorrow." ”

Zeng Yi said: "When I got into your car, I naturally listened to your arrangement!" ”

Long Meixin glanced at it and said, "How did you change your sex, usually your sesame-sized little leader is the most difficult to serve, why are you so easy to talk today." ”

Zeng Yi slapped his head and made a statement of regret: "It turns out that you didn't arrange it, I knew that I would leave with Mayor Yan, and he also arranged mutton shabu!" ”

Long Meixin hated her teeth so much that she praised it, and this kid's old problem was committed again, she gritted her teeth and said: "I arranged a hot pig's trotters, I'm afraid you won't dare to go!" ”

Luo Gangyong smiled faintly, he knew that Zeng Yi must have something urgent when he came to the capital so late, so he didn't really invite Yan Zhidao to enter the city with him just now.

The car went directly to Luo Gangyong's house, in Luo Gangyong's words, Zeng Yi was not an outsider, and when he arrived in the capital, there was absolutely no reason to let Zeng Yi live outside. Fortunately, Luo Gangyong's house is relatively large, and it is more than enough to arrange Zeng Yi and Xu Li to go down, and the family has specially prepared a dinner party to catch the wind.

However, Zeng Yi still has to do things tomorrow morning, so he can't drink, Luo Gangyong is not reluctant, after eating, Xu Li entered his room.

Long Meixin then asked, "Are you in any hurry when you come to the capital this time?" ”

Zeng Yi said: "An old friend from the past invited me to come to the capital to treat people. ”

Luo Gangyong bowed slightly, "Is the condition complicated?" In fact, what he wanted to ask was: People who get sick are not ordinary, right?

"I'll know if I've seen it tomorrow, I don't think the situation will be optimistic, I should have been sick for a while, I just went to see it, and I may not be able to cure the noon." Zeng Yi said.

Long Meixin said: "I'm afraid it won't work!" "He is just guessing that the sick person may be Qiao Wende, this possibility is very high, to see Qiao Wende, there are many rules, Long Meixin is not suitable for the past now.

Long Meixin was not reluctant, she spread her hand and shrugged her shoulders, "Then it's nothing to do with me, I'll go to sleep!" With that, he stood up and stretched lazily to head towards his bedroom.

"Sleep after eating, fatten you!" Zeng Yi muttered in a low voice.

Long Meixin heard it, turned around and looked at Zeng Yi proudly, and said, "This girl has good genes, no matter how she eats, she won't get fat, I'm angry with you!" ”

Waiting for Long Meixin to leave, Luo Gangyong looked at the time and said, "It's not early, you should rest early, and I'll talk about it tomorrow if you have something." ”

The next morning, Zhai Rongtai went out for a walk as usual, carrying a bird cage by the way, so that the birds could also breathe, and when he returned home, he sat in the old recliner and Zhang Jieyou immediately handed over hot tea.

Before Zhai Lao picked up the internal reference, Zhang Jiexiong reported: "Old chief, Zeng Yi has come to the capital!" ”

"Oh?" Zhai Rongtai was a little surprised, and then laughed and said: "I don't believe it, if he comes to the capital, dare not tell me?" ”

"I arrived early in the morning, because it was too late, so I disturbed the old chief." Zhang Jieyou explained.

Zhai Lao usually plays chess with himself when he is a little bored on the mountain alone, he used to be happy with it, but recently he has always been playing, he will push the chessboard and say: "No, it's boring!" Then he scolded inexplicably: "A group of white-eyed wolves, they are about to forget my old bones to the outside world!" ”

Having said that, who would dare to forget Zhai Lao! Those who want to see Zhai Lao are too many to count, but Zhai Lao himself doesn't want to see him, and it will be very annoying to see him.

Therefore, Zhang Jiexiong understands in his heart that Zhai Lao is thinking of Zeng Yi again, Zeng Yi is one of the few people who does not bother Zhai Lao and is very happy to see, and he can beat Zhai Lao in chess, as long as Zhai Lao is addicted to chess, he will naturally remember Zeng Yi coming, but unfortunately Zeng Yi is too far away, and it is strange that Zhai Lao does not scold.

Whenever this happens, Zhang Jiexiong will joke next to him: "Old chief, why don't I tie up Zeng Yi and let him play chess with you?" "I have said this many times, and Zhai Lao doesn't believe it anymore.

"He still knows how to come to the capital!" Zhai Lao snorted, picked up the teacup and took a big sip, "I thought there was no place in the capital on his map!" You go and tell him, just say that I don't have time to see him, let him come from, and go back! ”

Zhang Jiexiong smiled and said, "Old chief, Zeng Yi came to the capital this time because he had something to do!" ”

Zhai Lao was even more angry, daring to love this is not to see himself, at that moment he knocked the tea on the table, picked up the internal reference and shook it twice.

"Miss Meixin called just now and said that Zeng Yi came this time to treat people by a friend." Zhang Jiexiong took two steps closer and said in a low voice: "The sick person is likely to be the old man of the Qiao family." ”

The corner of Zhai Lao's eyes was raised, is Qiao Wende sick? I haven't heard of that!

Some people say that domestic politics is the politics of the elderly, although it is a bit exaggerated, but it can also be regarded as some characteristics, the life and death of an old man is often related to the rise and fall of a force in the domestic political arena. For example, the Chang family opposite, as soon as Chang dies, the prestige of the Chang family is gone, so when some people are sick, it is not as simple as being sick, it is also a very important political matter.

That being the case, Zhai Lao didn't know about Qiao Wende's illness, so it was not surprising at all, maybe the people of the Qiao family were unwilling to let outsiders know, so as not to be taken advantage of. 、

"It seems like I haven't seen Old Joe for a long time, right?" Zhai Lao asked himself a question, and said, "Those spicy flavors sent by others a few days ago, you can find an opportunity to send some over!"

Zhang Jiexiong said: "Yes! ”

It is impossible for Zhai Lao to really be angry with Zeng Yi, in fact, Zeng Yi is very attentive, every other week, he has to talk to his full-time doctor on the phone to communicate and understand his physical condition, these things, Zhai Lao knows all these things, but if he doesn't say so, do you still want to say that he misses Zeng Yi very much! In that case, Zhai Rongtai can't say it, and it's not Zhai Rongtai's style!

Zeng Yi rushed to the Beijing Office in Longshan City on the front foot, and Meng Qunsheng arrived on the back foot to pick up Zeng Yi.

"Thank you for your hard work, let you run all the way!" Meng Qunsheng was also a little embarrassed, he just made a phone call, and he didn't say anything, so he urged Zeng Yi over, which didn't seem to be very in line with the rules of doing things.

"Brother Meng said this, and he was outside!" Zeng Yi smiled, "You also believe me, you didn't treat me as an outsider, so you would call me, right?" ”

"Yes!" Meng Qunsheng patted Zeng Yi on the shoulder and said, "I'm very happy that you think so, then Brother Meng won't be polite to you, let's set off, talk while walking on the road." ”

Yan Zhidao asked people to move out the prepared local supplements, and said: "Director Meng, I brought some local products from Longshan, and I wanted to send them to your home in person, but I am afraid that you don't have time. ”

Meng Qunsheng didn't have time to be polite to Yan Zhidao, bowed slightly, and said: "Thank you, Mayor Yan, don't do this in the future, how can I eat so much, it's all bad!"

"Don't worry, if you think it's delicious and comfortable to eat, I'll bring it again, there are a lot of these things." Yan Zhidao waved his hand and asked people to put the two bags of things into Meng Qunsheng's trunk.

On the way there, Meng Qunsheng gave Zeng Yi the bottom, "Zeng Yi, I won't hide it from you, this time it is Qiao Lao who is sick, the situation is a little serious, you must be cautious and careful when you get to the place, if you don't have a bottom in your heart, it doesn't matter, just go through the motions, don't fight an uncertain battle!" ”

Zeng Yi nodded, "I have a sense of proportion in this, Brother Meng rest assured!" ”

Meng Qunsheng sat down in the depths of the seat, and then sighed softly, in fact, he also took a lot of pressure when he invited Zeng Yi over this time.

In front of Yan Zhidao, Meng Qunsheng, the assistant director of the National Development and Reform Commission, was very angry, but in Qiao's house, where the trees were big and deep-rooted, and the branches and leaves were luxuriant, he was not even a sideline, and Meng Qunsheng was able to get this position in the National Development and Reform Commission because of Old Man Qiao's speech, otherwise such a sought-after position would never be his turn.

Now that Qiao is sick, in Qiao's family, it is a big deal, he is not a side character, and he has no right to speak at all. It's just that Meng Qunsheng deeply felt the grace of Qiao Lao's acquaintance, so he had the courage to recommend Zeng Yi to Qiao Lao, if he didn't do anything, Meng Qunsheng felt that he couldn't go.

Fortunately, Qiao Lao was tolerant of Meng Qunsheng, and even allowed the person he recommended to give it a try, if it was successful today, Meng Qunsheng would be regarded as a great establishment for the Qiao family, proving that Qiao Lao did not value him in vain before; But if it doesn't work, the consequences can be imagined, and Meng Qunsheng will have no status in the Qiao family.

Meng Qunsheng didn't have the heart to do things during this time, he was hesitating whether to do it or not, and in the end he still chose to do his best and do his best, otherwise Qiao Lao really couldn't survive this time, and Meng Qunsheng would be uneasy for the rest of his life.

Qiao Wende did not live in Yuquan Mountain, but lived in the Xiyuan Villa in Jingxiao, which is also a good place for old cadres to enjoy their old age.

When he arrived at Qiao's house, Qin Yizhou stood next to the guard box at the gate, this is the etiquette of hospitality, and at this time, it is not more than usual, for the doctor who comes to the door, it must be paid attention to, so that the other party can go all out.

Zeng Yi got out of the car, Qin Yizhou saw that there was no one else, his brows furrowed slightly, Meng Qunsheng was too Meng Lang, how could he find such a young doctor.

"Qunsheng, this is what you call a miracle doctor! Great work, hard work! ”

Qin Yizhou still showed a very high level of quality, stepped forward to greet him warmly, and shook hands with Zeng Yi.

"If I'm not mistaken, you're Director Qin, right?" Zeng Yi smiled, "We used to talk on the phone, I remember your voice." ”

Qin Yizhou was a little surprised, when did this happen, he is also a person with a good memory, but why is he not impressed at all?

Zeng Yi said: "Last year, Director Meng was injured in Nanjiang Provincial People's Hospital, and Uncle Meng gave you a phone ......."

Qin Yizhou remembered, when he pressed that number to call back, it was a young man who answered the phone, could it be the person in front of him, this is too coincidental, "The world is so small, I didn't expect the gods that the group said was you." If you count it that way, we're all old acquaintances, aren't we? Hehe! ”

"Yes, I know it, it's a great medical miracle!" Qin Yizhou smiled, but he was still not very optimistic about Zeng Yi in his heart, which could only show that the other party was a good hand at treating external injuries, but he might not have a good skill for incurable diseases, "Doctor Zeng, please come in, let's go inside and talk about it in detail!" ”

Qiao's yard is very large, the house is a three-story villa, Zeng Yi walked in, felt a little familiar, after thinking about it, he smiled in his heart, Qiao Wende was going to Nanjiang to retire, he was responsible for arranging the residence, what he thought of at that time was not a little similar to the furnishings in front of him.

Qiao Wende's sons are all in important positions, and they are not at home at the moment, and they all go to work. Several daughters-in-law have been serving by Qiao Wende's side recently, but when they saw that Qin Yizhou brought in a young doctor, they didn't show up.

Regarding Meng Qunsheng's recommendation of the doctor and participation in the treatment, the members of the Qiao family, who are rooted in Miao Hong, all feel that Meng Qunsheng's motives are a little impure, and they are risking the old man's life for his future.

Qin Yizhou led Zeng Yi into a small reception room and said, "These are all big experts in the medical team, and the professionals will explain the matter of the condition to you." ”

There were several experts sitting in the room, all of them were old and steady, none of them were less than forty-five years old, and when they saw Zeng Yi, they also frowned together, it was too child's play! What kind of place do you think of here, and what kind of person does you think of Qiao Lao, how can any cat or dog person come to see Qiao Lao!

It was not the first time Zeng Yi had encountered this kind of embarrassment, and he didn't care, and said, "Director Qin said that the condition is serious, can I first ask a few seniors about the specific situation of a patient?" After speaking, Zeng Yi found a place to sit down, waiting for the experts to speak, his "serious condition" is to tell these experts, if you have any doubts about me, you can put it aside now, and everyone will focus on the firepower first and study the condition together.

Qin Yizhou poured Zeng Yi a glass of water, sat aside, and looked at everyone on the scene with a serious expression.
