Chapter 716: A song is a good song, but a person may not be a good person
The evening breeze blows, the water ripples, the lights shine in the water, shining with sparkling and undulating brilliance, surrounded by rows of leafy trees, blocking the moonlight, and the surroundings are extremely quiet.
In China, this is the most sacred place that symbolizes supreme power - Zhongnanhai!
In an office that is still lit today, an old man in a coat who is reviewing documents under the lamp, sometimes frowning, sometimes soothingly, the teacup in his hand, obviously no longer hot, is lifted and fallen, sighing again and again.
"Bell bell bellโ"
Suddenly, a phone call came, the old man picked up the phone, paused for a few seconds, looked majestic, and said in a majestic voice:
"Okay, I'm in the office, come here."
Not long after, there was a knock on the door, and the old man said, "Come in." โ
The person who came was Gu Qiancheng, who is now quite eye-catching in the center, hot, whether it is the Xuanyuan family or his own energy, he is already a very human minister in the Forbidden City, and there are no more than ten who can surpass him, except for those who really have the right to make decisions, he is the most powerful person in the real power faction.
"Sit down."
The old man was very kind and bowed slightly, but his tone was not angry and arrogant, which made people dare not underestimate him.
Gu Qiancheng sat precariously and said with a stern expression:
"Elder Li, I've been there, but---Su Chen didn't agree, he still seems to be angry about the country's decision-making not long ago, after all, he is in full swing to dominate the Asian economic circle of the Hundred League Alliance, under the implementation of the state-owned economic system, completely reduced to cannon fodder, although this matter has passed, but in his heart, it seems to be a knot. For this gene cloning research, he seems to be very interested, the re-emergence of the Hundred Regiments Alliance this time seems to indicate that Su Chen wants to open up a revolution in the private economic system, and now his Hundred Regiments Alliance has become a real international mainstream with the strong support of the Gene Cloning Research Institute, and it is not so easy for our country to get involved, besides, I also believe that not only we are eyeing the research institute in Su Chen's hands, but there may be many people around the world. โ
Gu Qiancheng said sincerely, every word is a thing, he represents the country, and also represents the Xuanyuan family, if he really won Su Chen's Gene Cloning Research Institute this time, maybe he would be a different story, but if he failed, of course he would pick something good to say.
Li Lao smiled bitterly and shook his head, this result, he thought of it, what kind of person Su Chen was, he knew very well.
"Lao Zhao told me at the beginning that this kid is a thorn in the head, and he can't be treated with common sense at all, and even recruiting him directly into the army to hold a high position was sternly rejected by him. It seems that the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, but there is one thing, I have to admire that old man Su, who gave birth to sons and grandsons, he is a good hand, it seems that Su Chen really plans to build a business empire by himself. There are some things that we in power can't decide completely, alas, it's really a headache. โ
"Actually, we have another way."
Gu Qiancheng smiled slightly and said in a low voice.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it."
Li Lao did not shy away from it, and bowed his head slightly.
"Coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes! Su Chen is the strongest, he is also a person, no matter how hard he holds his fists, he is also a young child, his weakness is his relatives, his woman. Only in this way can we 'kidnap' Su Chen and let him stand on the same side as us, so that the Gene Cloning Research Institute is not at our fingertips? We are just threatening, and we will not hurt his family, because our purpose is just to want him to cooperate with us, which does not seem to be contrary to our original intention. Small amount is not a gentleman, no poison is not a husband, in this kind of major right and wrong related to the fate of the family and country, even if he does something that violates morality, it is not a shameful thing, although this kind of thing will be criticized, but if you want to become a king or a loser, if you want to achieve great things, you can't stick to small things and sacrifice a little for the country, as a Chinese person, Su Chen should be like this. โ
"Shut up, don't mention this matter in the future."
Li Lao shouted in a deep voice, and his face was even more gloomy.
Gu Qiancheng was slightly shocked in his heart, when Li Lao had never shown such anger, even he was a little frightened, did he say something wrong? For the sake of the country, big and small things can give way, after all, there are some major issues of right and wrong, whether it is now or in the past, it will be small to give way to the big, and on the issue of the family and the country, there is no right or wrong, only success or failure.
Li Lao thought about it, and his tone finally softened a little:
"Some things are not as simple as you think, the national interest is above all else, but it is also necessary to distinguish when and to whom. Do you think that the Su family is really so easy to provoke? Why didn't anyone dare to kill Su Zhen in the first place? Why was he able to stay in Qincheng Prison for twenty years, and no one dared to touch him? Because it was he himself repenting, if he wanted to go out, no one could stop him, and if he wanted to leave, no one in the capital dared to argue with him at the beginning. That's energy, that's ability. He has made countless contributions to the country, although in the end he ran counter to those in power because of his position and personal personality, but still no one dared to underestimate him, and he sacrificed too much for the country. Although he was in prison, even these bigwigs later, no one dared to despise him, but respected him quite much. Su Tianting is unruly, Su Zhen is atoning for his son, he knows very well that there is not so much fairness in this world, as a father, as an elder, as an official, as a power, Su Zhen is exemplary. He is a simple person, but you can't help but be in awe of him. You are not a person of our time, you will never know what kind of height that man once stood at, what kind of decisions he made, and how many unknown contributions he made to the country. Even if it is for the sake of the national interest, no one in the authorities is willing to fight to the death with the Su family, and it is the kind that is endless, even if it is endless, if such despicable means are used, even if I enter the underworld, I don't have the face to explain to those old chiefs, no matter what, the Su family, can't move. โ
Li Lao will never forget the words that Su Zhen said when he stood in front of Qincheng Prison, even Deng Gong was quite embarrassed, but helplessly, due to the secular public opinion and pressure and the changes in the Forbidden City at that time, Su Zhen had to make a choice, and this choice was that he would automatically enter Qincheng Prison for twenty years! In the past twenty years, he has pretended to be crazy and stupid, he has become an ordinary person, and he is atoning for his son.
"'I, Su Zhen, if I want to get out of here, no one can stop me, if I want to make Huaxia uneasy, who can stop me? I went to Qincheng Prison not for myself, but for the country'. After saying that, Su Zhen resolutely walked into Qincheng Prison, only a few people know that Su Zhen was in the past, he was in charge of the most secret special forces today, his prestige in the army, no one can match, although he is only a lieutenant general, but even the general is in awe when he sees him, he is a veteran of the three wars who has experienced the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea and the Sino-Vietnamese Self-Defense Counterattack, although he has made great achievements, although he is in the dark, but without Su Zhen's existence, these wars will not be won so easily, I can tell you clearly, Su Zhen is the only soldier who has not been awarded the rank of general, and should have been one of the top ten marshals, because he was too young at the time, Su Zhen took the initiative to ask Ying and gave up the title of general and marshal, because every marshal is also a great military achievement, but Su Zhen is still in secret, and there are not many people who know him, so he is afraid of causing unrest in the country and causing a sensation among the masses, so he is also a person who even Deng Gong and later national leaders dare not underestimate, now, you should understand, why am I so excited. He is the only remaining general of the king today, and he is the youngest marshal who should have been the republic, the first person after Zhu Peng! โ
Li Lao looked excited, with a grim attitude, these words, if it weren't for Gu Qiancheng, he might not say it again in his life, he is the person who witnessed the birth of such a miracle as Su Zhen, Su Zhen was the brightest and most dazzling star of their generation at the beginning, and he was also the marshal of the entire republic, and his final imprisonment was completely willing.
Moreover, the boss of Hongmen back then was Su Zhen. You should be no stranger to that ancient gang, the anti-Qing and Ming restoration organization that arose after the national surname Zheng Chenggong in the late Ming Dynasty, the descendant of the Heaven and Earth Society, the boss of the Hongmen, and that status can be imagined. He would rather enter Qincheng Prison than let the Hongmen people interfere, he would rather choose silence, choose loneliness, and choose to be misunderstood, but he still has no complaints. If you talk about heroes, who will compete? โ
Li Lao's eyes shone brightly, for Su Zhen, he only admired in his heart, even his father said, looking at China, there is no one who can compete with Su Zhen, his height has transcended the boundaries of time and age, Huaihai Pingjin, Liaoshen Taizhuang, Pyongyang liberation, he is everywhere, but no one knows that he is there.
Gu Qiancheng looked at Li Lao in a daze, he never expected that Su Zhen's background and height would be so strong, in the past, he only knew that Su Zhen was one of the few elders of the Republic, but he never thought that he actually had a meritorious service comparable to Zhu Peng, which made Deng Gong admire the bravery.
In life, I live like Su Zhen, and I have no regrets. Gu Qiancheng nodded heavily, although he is in the same breath as the Xuanyuan family, it does not mean that he is a bad person, he still admires him for the country, from childhood to adulthood, his father taught him how to become a qualified official. Worthy of the sky and worthy of the earth, it is useless, people die only a handful of loess, what can heaven and earth do to help me? To be worthy of the people is the real official. In this life, a respectable person is a person who has done his best for the country, even if you have done a lot of wrong things, but there is one point, you can't be sorry for the country!
"I see, Elder Li."
Gu Qiancheng was relieved in his heart, and became extremely religious, Su Zhen, worthy of respect, such a person is by no means something he can move, the entire Forbidden City, those old leaders who are the only remaining fruits, will not agree, Su Zhen is the hidden eleventh generalissimo, this matter is what shocks Gu Qiancheng the most, and now in the entire Forbidden City, who else can compare with Su Zhen?
"Okay, you go back first, I still have a lot of things to deal with."
Li Lao waved his hand, and retreated to Gu Qiancheng, in the room, he was the only one left, Li Lao felt a little irritable, rubbed his temples, old is old after all, more than seventy years old, still in a high position, because the people who can replace these old guys, which is not a person who climbs to a high position step by step, which is not a person who has been carefully selected by countless people to have the opportunity to stand in a high place, unlike foreign systems, in China, as long as there is a trace of flaw or stain, it means, You won't be able to reach the top in your life.
"How many years, Su Zhen is Su Zhen, you really give me a headache, your son, also give me a headache, your grandson, even more so, if you can stand up at this time, it would be good. Alas. โ
Li Lao sighed, but he knew that from the moment Su Zhen entered Qincheng Prison, the Su family had completely broken with the country, the old man who had made outstanding contributions to the republic, his heart was dead, the country hurt his people, and he also paid all his youth for the country.
Li Lao also has a headache, Su Zhen holds the Gene Cloning Research Institute, in case he wants to do something contrary to the country, it will be difficult to do, now the whole world is staring at Su Chen's Gene Cloning Research Institute, and the whole body will be affected, this genetic revolution is likely to make countless countries crazy, although there may not be as frightening fear as the Third World War, but it is not excluded that the advent of war, science and technology, represents the progress of the times, and real scientific research is the foundation of a country, It is enough to rise to the point of the survival of the country, how can it not be coveted?
Tsinghua Pool, by the lotus leaf, a song at dusk is intoxicating; Willow eyebrows, waves like water, red sleeves add fragrance only for whom?
A woman dressed in white, her lips are lightly opened, her hands are caressing the piano, on the side of the Tsinghua pool, gently playing, the scenery is intoxicating, and the beauty is even more intoxicating.
The people around, no one is close to this woman, but in the distance, there are many people listening silently, in the pavilion in the middle of the lake, the woman is like a fairy in the nine heavens, her clothes are fluttering, dancing with the wind, a little lotus leaf white flower sting, a song of ripples drunk lotus.
The sound of the piano is beautiful, as beautiful as the sound of heaven.
Su Chen passed quietly, although the sound of the piano was beautiful, it had countless sorrows, it was pleasant to listen to, but in fact, his heart was mottled, but he was powerless to return to the sky.
"A song is a good song, but a person may not be a good person."
