Chapter 249: Endless Conspiracy
Without waiting for Duan Zetao to reply, Zhu Feiyang shouted unhappily: "Zhao Laosi, how did you speak, this is my Brother Tao, Sister Ruoyan asked me to invite him here, what does it matter to you?!" ”。
It turned out that this young man was Zhao Yang, the younger brother of Ruoyan's husband Zhao Xu, and the fourth of the "Four Youths in Beijing", he was relatively close to Jiang Zilong, but he had never dealt with Zhu Feiyang much.
Zhao Yang saw that Zhu Feiyang was helping Duan Zetao speak, and he became even more angry, and sneered: "It turned out to be Zhu Laosan, when will it be your old Zhu family's turn to intervene in the affairs of our old Zhao family, go aside!" ”。
Zhu Feiyang was about to get angry, but Shen Ruoyan on the side was already frosty, and scolded the young man: "Zhao Yang! When have you become so rude! Do I need your consent to invite someone to my house?! You immediately apologize to the person! ”。
This Zhao Yang was born at the time of the catastrophe in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, his parents were isolated and censored, he and his brother grew up in the Shen family, although Ruoyan was only a few years old at that time, she took special care of Zhao Yang, so that Zhao Yang has always had a strange affection for this sister-in-law in his heart, and the second chief thought that he owed him too much when he was a child, and he was also very doting on him, so Zhao Yang grew up to develop a rebellious and violent character, and he didn't listen to anyone's words, but he was very in awe of Ruoyan and never dared to disobey.
At this time, Zhao Yang saw that his beloved Sister Ruoyan actually had such a big temper with him for an outsider, and he became more and more indignant in his heart, snorted coldly, glared at Duan Zetao fiercely, threw the birdcage in his hand to the ground, shook his hand and ran out, the macaw fluttered in the overturned birdcage, and actually said: "Sister Ruoyan, so beautiful, Sister Ruoyan, so beautiful!" ”。
Presumably it was Zhao Yang who recited this sentence in front of this macaw every day, and was learned by this macaw, Zhu Feiyang, Duan Zetao, and Shen Ruoyan looked at each other, all of them were quite embarrassed, Duan Zetao pulled Zhu Feiyang and hurriedly said goodbye to Shen Ruoyan and went to the hospital to visit Li Mei's mother and daughter.
But said that Zhao Yang ran out with indignation, only to feel that there was no place to send a fire in his stomach, so he went to find Jiang Zilong, who had always been very good, Jiang Zilong was playing cards with Yang Shanglu, Yang Zihe and Shen Yu in the hotel box at this time, and saw Zhao Yang come in with a depressed face, and asked strangely: "Fourth, what's wrong with you, is it possible that there are still people who can bully your famous Zhao Siye?!" ”。
Zhao Yang told what happened just now, Jiang Zilong heard that Zhu Feiyang was also there, and roughly guessed that the strange young man in Zhao Yang's mouth was Duan Zetao, threw the cards in his hand on the table, and asked, "What does that man look like?!" ”。
"What? Brother Zilong, do you know that person too?! Zhao Yang described Duan Zetao's appearance and characteristics, and asked strangely, Jiang Zilong slapped the table hard and stood up, "Sure enough, it's Duan Zetao's kid!" This kid actually caught up with Sister Ruoyan's line, so it will be even more difficult to deal with him in the future! ”。
Yang Zihe on the side said with a hippie smile: "Duan Zetao's kid has a good skin, if Sister Yan won't take a fancy to him, then Zhao Yang, you will need more cheap brothers!" Ha ha! ……”。
When Zhao Yang heard this, his eyes were on fire, and he rushed over at Yang Zihe, grabbed his neck and said viciously: "Dog, what are you talking about?!" My sister Ruoyan is not that kind of person, if you talk nonsense again, Lao Tzu will kill you! ”。
Jiang Zilong and Yang Shanglu on the side hurriedly stepped forward to persuade them, "Zhao Yang, let go quickly, they are all their own brothers, and they beat their own people and let others see the jokes!" ......, "Zihe, you are really, you don't have any sense of proportion when you joke, can you say this nonsense?!" If this reaches Sister Ruoyan's ears, you will die! ”。
Zhao Yang let go of Yang Zihe at this time, but he still stared at him with burning eyes, Yang Zihe was already at a loss, and Zhao Yang was a famous ruthless character in the "Red Third Generation" of Sijiu City, but he didn't dare to fight back, and muttered a little unwillingly, "What's the use of me, I have the ability to deal with Duan Zetao!" ”。
"What's that kid up to?! Isn't it Zhu Laosan who covers him? I'm not afraid, I'll find someone to kill him when I turn around! Zhao Yang snorted coldly.
Yang Shanglu shook his head, and hurriedly persuaded: "Zhao Yang, don't mess around, that kid's background is not simple, not only has a good relationship with Boss Li and Zhu Laosan, I heard that he is the long-lost grandson of the old Xiao family, although he has not officially recognized his ancestors and returned to his ancestors, the old man of the Xiao family values him very much, and recently married the granddaughter of the old man Li as his wife, it seems that even the vice premier appreciates him, Brother Zilong has wanted to deal with him for a long time, and he has not thought of a good way to ......."
Zhao Yang didn't expect Duan Zetao's background to be so complicated, and there were so many big people behind him to support him, although he was more mixed, he was not a brainless stunned young man, and slapped the table hatefully and said: "Is it just looking at that kid with a lively spirit!" After that, how are we still messing around in this forty-nine city! I can't swallow this breath! ……”。
Yang Lushang sneered: "As long as this kid is mixed in the capital, there are many ways to deal with him!" Saying that, he turned his head to Jiang Zilong and said: "It's been a while since Zetao returned to Beijing, and I haven't heard of any work arranged, Brother Zilong, you can inquire, there are many people in various ministries and commissions in Beijing, as long as you figure out where this kid works, it's not too late to take your time to rectify him!" ……”。
Jiang Zilong's second uncle is the deputy director of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, and it is naturally not difficult to inquire about Duan Zetao's whereabouts, and after a while, the news that Duan Zetao is going to be appointed as Minister Counselor of the embassy in country Y came, and Jiang Zilong said indignantly: "This kid's official is getting bigger and bigger, and he has actually become a diplomat, and it will take a few more years, and it won't turn the sky upside down!" ……”。
Yang Shanglu on the side slapped his thigh hard, laughed and said: "There is a way now, I know Lin Yudan, the ambassador of the embassy in country Y, he has been staring at the position of vice minister of foreign affairs and wants to take the position, I will call him and ask him to "take special care" of Duan Zetao, Duan Zetao will feel better, this diplomatic work is not as good as domestic, a little mistake, but it is a big mistake in principle, and no one can protect him at that time!" ……”。
Jiang Zilong also laughed gloomily, "When you say this, I also have the impression, this Lin Yudan has been to my house a few times, my father is not at home, it was received by my second uncle, he looks quite capable, he shouldn't be as sloppy as Lu Chenfeng, Duan Zetao has never had diplomatic work experience, but this Lin Yudan is an old diplomat, if he can't deal with Duan Zetao, he will really be a fool!" ......", everyone present burst into laughter, only a trace of worry flashed in Shen Yu's eyes.
Duan Zetao came to Li Mei's ward, Li Mei was breastfeeding her daughter, her face was full of the glory of maternal holiness, and there was a happy smile on the corner of her mouth, thinking that she would leave their mother and daughter to go to a foreign country soon, Duan Zetao felt very guilty in his heart, but his face looked casual, walked over, and teased Xiao Simei.
Li Mei still noticed his abnormality and asked, "The work arrangement has been decided?" Duan Zetao nodded, "Where to go?" When to go? I'll prepare your luggage. Li Mei was accustomed to Duan Zetao's days of being an official everywhere, and she was mentally prepared.
"Appointed as Minister Counselor of the Embassy in Country Y, and ...... leave in half a month", Duan Zetao didn't dare to look directly into Li Mei's eyes, his heart was full of guilt, for fear that he would cry when he saw her reluctant eyes.
At this time, Jiang Xiaoxue happened to push the door in, and when she heard Duan Zetao's words, she exclaimed, "Go to country Y!" It is reported on TV every day that there is civil unrest there, and it is too dangerous! ……”。
Li Mei rarely watched TV during this time, and when she heard Jiang Xiaoxue say this, she was also anxious, and grabbed Duan Zetao's hand tightly and said anxiously: "Zetao, is it true?!" Can you not go?! I'll go to my grandpa and ask him to help you figure it out! ……”。
Duan Zetao patted Li Mei's hand gently, stood up, and said with guilt but unusually firmly: "Xiaomei, Xiaoxue, I'm really sorry for you, there are too few days to accompany you, now that Xiao Simei has just been born, I want to go to a foreign country again, but the motherland needs me now, if everyone will let go when they see difficulties, and hide when they see danger, then who will protect our motherland, and who will defend our hard-won happy life?!" ……”。
"Moreover, the diplomatic relations between country Y and my country are normal, I am a diplomat, I enjoy diplomatic privileges, there should be no danger, I will pay attention to it myself, you can rest assured......."
Jiang Xiaoxue and Li Mei both know Duan Zetao's character, and no one can change what they decide, so it is difficult to dissuade them anymore, Jiang Xiaoxue thought for a while and said: "Then you take Brother Tielong with you, with him to protect you, we can rest assured, I will transfer another driver from the company tomorrow to help us drive ......."
Duan Zetao nodded and agreed, before leaving, he also had to make other arrangements for Fang Dongming's work, the minister counselor was not worthy of the life secretary, he called Hu Qidong and arranged for Fang Dongming to return to Gulin County as the deputy county magistrate, and Fang Dongming also had an explanation.
Zhang Guihua was very happy to learn that her son had become a diplomat, in her opinion, being a diplomat was naturally a great thing to glorify her ancestors, Duan Zetao and Jiang Xiaoxue also deliberately did not tell her about the dangerous situation of country Y, so as to save her from worrying.
When Old Man Xiao learned that Duan Zetao was going to be appointed as Minister Counselor of the Embassy of Country Y, he didn't make a sound, quietly called Duan Zetao into the study, wrote down a satellite phone number on the note, and solemnly said to Duan Zetao: "You remember this number, burn this note immediately after remembering, unless there is an emergency, you can call the above phone to ask this person for help, this is my old subordinate, his existence belongs to the high-level secrets of the state, you must not disclose it to the outside world!" ……”。
Duan Zetao vaguely guessed something, this should be similar to the "wolf's tooth" troop carrying out secret missions abroad, Old Man Xiao was going to take a big political risk by revealing this secret to himself, he was very moved in his heart, and choked up: "Grandpa, I remember, I won't make this call until I have to, and your old man should also take care of his ......health."
