Pei Xiaoshan hesitated, recalling the scene in front of his yard more than an hour ago.

He went out and closed the yard door, and when he turned around, he saw a black car parked at the mouth of the alley. The professional sense of smell made Pei Xiaoshan smell an unusual smell, and he slowly clenched his fist.

Immediately, he saw two people getting out of the black car.

He knew both of them, and they knew each other well - more than twenty years ago.

The one who looked relatively young and relatively thinner, called Yang Liu, was the confidential secretary of the old chief, and one of the core members with the deepest imprint of Li Lu in the eyes of people, but finally betrayed Li Lu. Another relatively tall, slightly older and glasses wears a name named Zheng Kaiyun, who used to be the backbone of the Political Intelligence Department, and now the head of the Political Intelligence Department, who once successfully broke into the saber regiment and became the fuse that made Li Lu fall.

There is no doubt that these two people are mortal enemies in the eyes of Li Lu's members, and enemies who are quick to slaughter.

But more than 20 years later, they are alive and well.

Pei Xiaoshan took a few steps forward and stopped, his fists no longer clenched. There will be no danger, if Yang Liu and Zheng Kaiyun come to look for trouble, they will definitely not come in person. From the expressions on their faces, it can be seen that they have other intentions.

Yang Liu and Zheng Kaiyun glanced at each other, both walked towards Pei Xiaoshan, and stopped at a distance of three steps, but first bowed slightly. This made Pei Xiaoshan feel strange and surprised.

"Staff Officer Pei, don't come unharmed. Yang Liu hugged his fists.

Pei Xiaoshan didn't have any official position -- even Li Lu didn't have any official position, let alone a confidential assistant.

Pei Xiaoshan pulled the corners of his mouth and smiled, "Director Yang, you look good." ”

As he spoke, he looked at Zheng Kaiyun, "Minister Zheng's improvement is better." ”

Zheng Kaiyun's face showed a slight embarrassment, hugged his fists, and said, "Very surprised, I didn't expect you to be alive." I'm guilty, but each is his own master, and I hope you can understand. ”

The enemy met but didn't blush, it was Zheng Kaiyun who shot Pei Xiaoshan in the back, Zheng Kaiyun thought he was dead at that time, but he didn't expect the news he got a few days ago that not only Pei Xiaoshan, but Liu Xiaoguang, who was plotted by him back then, was not dead.

Hu Zhentian didn't die, this is something he knew at the time. At that time, Hu Zhentian was rescued, and then the old Li family tried their best to save Hu Zhentian, and made every effort to cultivate Hu Zhentian, so that he had the position of deputy minister of intelligence today.

Everyone knows that that is the foundation that the old Li family has tried to leave in the intelligence system. In view of the special relationship between the special forces and the Ministry of Intelligence, and because of the huge intelligence force and huge intelligence network that Li Lu created back then, in fact, like the special forces, the intelligence system also has a deep brand of the old Li family. It's not easy for others to get their hands on it.

Pei Xiaoshan's gaze at Zheng Kaiyun was very flat, there was no hatred, and there was no other color. He glanced at them and said, "The two of you came to Nangang from thousands of mountains and rivers, it must not be an apology, right?"

Yang Liu coughed lightly a few times, he didn't mean to apologize at all, but he also heard it. If you want to bow your head, you have to show the proper posture.

"Staff Officer Pei, we hope to have a chance to meet with the old chief. Yang Liu whispered.

Zheng Kaiyun hugged his fists again, "I hope Staff Officer Pei can introduce you." ”

Pei Xiaoshan looked at them, the corners of his mouth curled slightly, looked at it for a while, didn't say anything, turned around and got into the half-old second-generation land 5700, started the car and drove away.

Yang Liu and Zheng Kaiyun looked at Lu 5700 and left, glanced at each other, and didn't know what this meant.

"Let's go. After a long time, Zheng Kaiyun helped her glasses and stepped into the car.

Yang Liu frowned and got into the car.

They returned to the guest house and waited, obviously not going back to Beijing.

Retracting his thoughts, Pei Xiaoshan said, "Chief, they are here to bow their heads and admit their mistakes. ”

Li Lu stood up, paced a few steps with a cigarette between his fingers, walked to the window, looked out at the field, and said, "Niu Er, your farm reminds me of Austria." ”

As he spoke, he turned around, smiled and said, "The so-called fairyland on earth is just like that. ”

They are all old subordinates for decades, and they are naturally accustomed to the way of thinking of the old chief. Pei Xiaoshan smiled and said to Niu Er, "We stayed in Austria for a while a few years ago, and the chief ran almost everywhere. In terms of scenery, the chief felt that Austria was the most beautiful European country. ”

"Austria is a country of music, and there is a lot of humanity there. A beautiful environment creates beautiful people, and beautiful people in turn sublimate a beautiful environment. Niu Er said.

Li Lu laughed, "You can still say such poetic things." ”

Niu Er smiled hesitantly, "It's all about pretending to be forced to do business with people." ”

"Hahaha......"

Li Lu smiled, pointed at Pei Xiaoshan and said, "Xiaoshan, call them over." ”

Pei Xiaoshan stood up and said, "Chief, are you going to ...... like this?"

Waving his hand, Li Lu said, "Don't say it again." I told you before I came back that I didn't come back with a butcher's knife. The rest of the days are satisfying to see my son and grandson grow up. O us people, the killing is too heavy. We are human beings after all, we can't get rid of the seven emotions and six desires, and I will never allow my people to become killing machines. There is a Liu Xiaoguang, which already makes me feel very guilty. ”

"Let the past pass. Everyone has their own aspirations, and within the framework of loyalty to the party and patriotism, any choice can be forgiven and understood. You've been following me for so many years, you should know this. ”

Looking at Li Lu, Niu Er took a deep breath and said, "Platoon leader, I'm afraid that we think so, but others don't think so." ”

Waving his hand, Li Lu said, "What others think, we can't change." The most difficult thing to change in this world is the human mind. We must not lose our own standards and beliefs in life because we think about what others think. Coming and going, coming and going, every internal friction brings extremely far-reaching trauma to the country. ”

Slowly sinking into his breath, Li Lu said, "You should be very clear about my principles. I can be forgiven for betrayal, but betrayal of the country is never allowed. ”

Pei Xiaoshan nodded solemnly, "Chief, I'll go and inform them now, let them come and see you." ”

Nodding, after Pei Xiaoshan left, Li Lu walked over and said to Niu Er, "Niu Er, on the battlefield in Southern Xinjiang twenty-six years ago, I told you that everything we did at that time was for national rejuvenation. Now that this qiē has become a reality, is there any regret?"

Li Lu knew that the most hated person about that incident back then was Niu Er, a man who used the label of big and rough but built an agricultural empire, and loyalty was his life.

"After all these years, you and I should stop and rest, and it's time for us to enjoy the beautiful modern life. Li Lu said with a smile.

Niu Er sighed and said, "Platoon leader, what do you say, how do I do it." ”
