Villain: The heroine reversed the start

Zhou Yongyan received Mu Yunke and Liao Chun at home.

Although Zhou Yongyan works in the imperial capital, his wife and son are not in the imperial capital, but in other cities.In the imperial capital, Zhou Yongyan lives alone, and usually there is no one else except a nanny.

After the nanny cooked the meal, Zhou Yongyan sent her home.So when Mu Yunke and Liao Chun arrived, Zhou Yongyan was the only one who had set up a banquet and waited for them.

After entering Zhou Yongyan's home and seeing the somewhat simple layout inside, Mu Yunke was thoughtful.

Whether a person in power can make decisions for the people can often be known by looking at the layout of the home.If it is a person in power who indulges in pleasure, there will naturally be a lot of expensive decorations in the home. Some of these decorations are antique calligraphy and paintings, and some are high-priced famous wines.What's more, they will also place shrines and Buddha statues at home, and burn incense three times a day without interruption, just like a devout believer.

However, Zhou Yongyan's family did not have these things.The furniture and home appliances are the kind used by ordinary people. With Mu Yunke's eyesight, he can naturally see that the value of these furniture is not high, and there is no collection value. It is purely "enough".

The wine that Zhou Yongyan brought out was really good, but it was only good at the average level, and the market price was two to three hundred yuan.To know the price of truly expensive wine, the price must be at least four figures, and very few can even reach five or even six figures.

And the top rich second generation like Mu Yunke even drank hundreds of thousands of wine.

But to Mu Yunke, it doesn't matter whether it's red wine worth hundreds of thousands, or Erguotou bought casually on the street.It may not be that good wine is not good enough, but Mu Yunke really doesn't have the ability to taste wine.

Liao Chun walked beside him and whispered to him: "This leader is considered very clean among those in power. But he will sit in that position not because he is clean enough, but because he has nothing to do with the eight great families."

When Liao Chun came here this time, he was still dressed in the same clothes as when he was in Hailan City, looking like a man and a woman.I have to say, just because of Liao Chun's figure, pretending to be a man really won't arouse others' suspicion.

Mu Yunke nodded slightly upon hearing this.Indeed, in this special place of the imperial capital, the people at the top often value their stance more than integrity and ability.And they chose a person who has nothing to do with the eight great families, which shows their intentions.

After Mu Yunke and Liao Chun entered the room, Zhou Yongyan said to them with a smile: "Welcome to both of you! I don't have any good things here, just some home-cooked dishes. I hope you don't dislike them!"

Mu Yunke also smiled and said: "You are too polite! We are also ordinary people, and we like home-cooked food the most!"

As he said that, Mu Yunke took out the gift: "These are health care products produced by my wife's company. They are not worth much. I hope you can accept them!"

Zhou Yongyan quickly waved his hand: "This is not allowed! As a person in power, I can't just accept gifts from others!"

Mu Yunke shook his head and said, "Don't worry, these health care products are only a few hundred yuan if calculated according to the market price, which may not be worth as much as your bottle of wine! Don't shirk it!"

"In that case, I'll accept it." Zhou Yongyan didn't refuse anymore, and took the gift box that Mu Yunke handed over.

Liao Chun next to him smiled and said, "I came here with a cheeky face and empty hands, please don't take offense!"

"Of course I won't be offended. It's fine if people can come, but don't give gifts or anything." Zhou Yongyan waved his hand.

After all, Liao Chun came from the Security Bureau, and the behavior of visiting those in power is very sensitive.If you bring a gift to your door, you will inevitably fall into the trap.Liao Chun knew this well, so he was empty-handed.

Next, under the hospitality of Zhou Yongyan, the two sat down one after another and began to taste the home-cooked meal.

Although Zhou Yongyan had already contacted the commissioner of the Security Bureau, the commissioner he contacted was not Liao Chun, so he did not know Liao Chun's identity.After Mu Yunke's introduction, he showed a dazed expression.

The three chatted while eating.

Zhou Yongyan admires young entrepreneurs like Mu Yunke very much.If the country can produce more such hard-working entrepreneurs, then the country's development will be smoother.And this is also the main reason why he will vigorously support the Yunyao Group Exchange Conference.

But at this dinner table, what they mainly discussed was not this issue.

At the beginning, the three of them just chatted about some innocuous topics.It wasn't until half of the food on the dinner table was gone that Zhou Yongyan took the initiative to bring the topic to the main topic.

Zhou Yongyan said to Mu Yunke earnestly: "Mr. Mu came to the imperial capital for more than establishing a branch and expanding the market, right? And since Commissioner Liao came with Mr. Mu, it seems that Mr. Mu should have some cooperation with the Security Bureau, right?"

Mu Yunke smiled and said: "Sure enough, I still can't hide it from you. You are right, the main purpose of my coming to the imperial capital is not for the group, but for one person."

"Who?"

"Ye Fan." Mu Yunke said seriously.

"Ye Fan..." Zhou Yongyan chewed on the name and asked, "Mu always has friendship with this Ye Fan, or is there some conflict?"

"There is no friendship, but there are some conflicts." Mu Yunke said calmly, "It is inconvenient to go into details, but I can only tell you that between Ye Fan and I, one must die."

Zhou Yongyan frowned when he heard this.What Mu Yunke said was very blunt, almost directly putting the murder on the surface.But is it appropriate for you to say this in front of a senior official?

But looking at Liao Chun, a staff member from the Security Bureau, he suddenly felt that this matter might not be as simple as it seemed on the surface.

So Zhou Yongyan asked: "Then I don't know what President Mu plans to do?"

"Well, it depends on Commissioner Liao's plan." After speaking, Mu Yunke glanced at Liao Chun.

Liao Chun smiled slightly, and did not answer this question directly, but asked Zhou Yongyan: "Do you know who recommended you back then?"

Zhou Yongyan narrowed his eyes slightly: "I heard that the person who recommended me is Mr. Yuan."

As soon as Mr. Yuan was mentioned, everyone in the whole country knew it, and everyone knew it.Although this person is not the talker of this country, his influence is unparalleled, and he can be called the evergreen tree of China.

"That's right." Liao Chun nodded, "But do you know that when Mr. Yuan recommended you, many people opposed you at the beginning? It was after Mr. Yuan gave up some benefits that he got other people's compromises."

"This... I really don't know." Zhou Yongyan said in surprise, "Why would Mr. Yuan choose me instead of giving up some benefits? I have no friendship with Mr. Yuan!"

Liao Chun smiled and said: "Although there is no friendship, it meets the needs of Yuan Lao. Because you were all the candidates at that time, and the only one who had no connection with the Eight Great Aristocratic Families."

Zhou Yongyan's sense of smell is still very sensitive to reach his current position.Hearing what Liao Chun said, he immediately understood: "You mean, Mr. Yuan wants to weaken the power of the Eight Great Aristocratic Families?"

Liao Chun sighed, and said: "At the beginning of the establishment of the country, the eight great families made a lot of contributions. So after the establishment of the country, each family gained status and authority. At the beginning, those who held power still had good wishes to build the country. But as time passed, they became obsessed with the power they had and became more and more unwilling to let it go. And this is what Yuan Lao has been worried about."

Zhou Yongyan nodded thoughtfully: "Mr. Yuan wants to return power to the people?"

Liao Chun nodded, and said with a serious expression: "Our life today is hard-won. This country finally overthrew the feudal monarchy and established the current Huaguo after going through many hardships. And our country must not tolerate ZZ oligarchs, otherwise the martyrs sacrificed in vain. But now some people are greedy for power and want to pass it down from generation to generation like a feudal hereditary, which is contrary to our original intention. The authority of the family, and it must be completed before Yuan Lao is alive!"

Zhou Yongyan understood what Liao Chun meant.Although Yuan Lao is not the core of those at the top, his status is unshakable.No matter who the people on the top floor were, Mr. Yuan was always fixed in that position like a sea needle.

But Mr. Yuan is now 93 years old, and his health is getting worse.To put it bluntly, with his current physical fitness, he may die at any time.Even with an optimistic estimate, there are only three or four years to live.And after Yuan Lao passed away, the top level of Huaguo also lacked the sea-fixing needle, so wouldn't this country fall into the hands of the eight great families?

Zhou Yongyan has always had a dream, that is to become one of those people at the top.He is not greedy for power, but he also sincerely wants to do more for this country.But he is also very clear that even if he can successfully become one of those people at the top, in terms of influence, he is absolutely inferior to the eight great families.

Only Mr. Yuan can check and balance the eight great families.And this is what Yuan Lao is worried about.

Liao Chun came here today, ostensibly to represent the Security Bureau, but in fact she came to have a showdown with Zhou Yongyan directly on behalf of Yuan Lao.Zhou Yongyan is a dark chess game played by Yuan Lao in the early years, and now it's time to use it.

Zhou Yongyan didn't expect Yuan Lao to be playing such a big game of chess, so he was a little stunned for a while.After pondering for a while, he said, "Then what can I do?"

Liao Chun smiled and said, "Well, it depends on how ambitious you are!"
