Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Yeah, not bad, not bad." After finishing a whole piece of Jingxi dessert, Mr. Fang wiped his mouth with satisfaction with the towel handed to him by Ah Fang, and then said, "Bring the tea."

At this moment, Mr. Fang showed his usual serious expression, which made Feng Sizhe more than just stunned. The sense of majesty without anger made Mr. Feng, who was already in a high position, feel a little respectful.

"I heard from outsiders that people who are familiar with you call you Xiaozhe, so I think it's not too much for me to call you that." Mr. Fang finally spoke after tasting the fragrant tea.

"Yes, the elders all call me that. I just don't know if I have the guts to ask, which leader did you hear that from?" Feng Sizhe slowly raised his head and asked softly.

"What? Is it only the leader who can address you like this?" Mr. Fang seemed a little unhappy about this question and frowned.

"No, how could that be? I was just asking casually. If Grandma Fang has any inconvenience, you don't have to tell me." Feng Sizhe lowered his head again, looking very respectful.

Seeing that Feng Sizhe had behaved very well since he came in, Mr. Fang's heart softened, "Well, it's okay to tell you. I heard what Comrade Hua Liguo from Guanggui Province said."

Suddenly hearing Mr. Fang mention Mr. Hua, Feng Sizhe suddenly realized that this was someone he met when he was the deputy mayor of Haibei City, Guangxi Province. Because Mr. Hua admired Feng Sizhe's work philosophy and style very much, the two of them soon became friends regardless of age difference, and they still contact each other occasionally even now. Now when he heard Mr. Fang mention this person, he couldn't help but feel relieved. He believed that since he had a good relationship with Mr. Hua, the information he got about himself should be mostly positive.

Thinking about this in his heart, Feng Sizhe spoke without delay, "So it's Mr. Hua. Yes, I have dealt with Mr. Hua before because of work. Although he is old, his character is still as strong as before. I admire him."

"Haha, I didn't expect that this little flower holds such a high position in your heart." Mr. Fang said with a smile.

Hearing that Mr. Hua, the man with the most seniority in Guangxi Province, was actually called Xiaohua by Mr. Fang, Feng Sizhe felt mixed emotions. It was really infuriating to compare himself with others.

"Well, what's wrong? This time you came to see me not just to bring me some snacks on behalf of your grandma, right?" Mr. Fang was still smiling just now, but suddenly his tone became serious. His expression was really like June, changing in an instant.

Fortunately, Feng Sizhe was well prepared. When he heard Fang Xian's question, he said, "Yes, Mr. Fang, I did come here for other things this time."

Feng Sizhe suddenly changed his words and stopped calling her Grandma Fang and started calling her Mr. Fang. This meant that he was going to talk about official business. Mr. Fang could also think of this, so she immediately said, "Okay, Governor Feng, just tell me what you have to say, but I want to remind you that what you are talking about had better not be a trivial matter."

"Of course, if it's a small matter, I can bring it up at the provincial standing committee." Feng Sizhe didn't dare to be pretentious. After explaining, he took out a small folder that he had kept for a long time and presented it with both hands. "Mr. Fang, please take a look first."

Seeing Feng Sizhe handing over the document, Ms. Fang was stunned. Why couldn't she report it verbally? Why did she have to do it so formally? She took the folder with doubts and opened it to read it. After a while, her face became more serious, then angry, and then calm.

During this time, Ms. Fang's heart has undergone several changes, which can't be hidden from Feng Sizhe who has been watching her. Of course, Mr. Feng will not speak casually at this time, he wants to give Mr. Fang time to think about it.

Mr. Fang was indeed thinking about it. Looking at the document handed over by Feng Sizhe, it turned out to be about his grandson Ji Dapeng. The document listed several things related to Ji Dapeng, the most important of which was the recent case, where nine people died and 23 were injured. This consequence was caused by her grandson's one thought and action.

If someone else had done such a thing, Mr. Fang would have sent the case to the relevant authorities for handling. However, this time the person was indeed her relative, which made it difficult for her to make the decision.

Mr. Fang now understood why Feng Sizhe came to see him. It turned out that someone had something on his grandson, and he didn't know what to do. So he transferred the conflict and handed it over to him directly. Since he came here according to He Jiayu's instructions and brought Jingxi snacks, then Mr. Zhao and Mr. He should also know about this matter. Not only did they know about it, but they should have given Feng Sizhe the idea to come to him. If so, she would have to be more cautious in making a decision.

Ms. Fang has only one daughter and one grandson. Now her only grandson is involved in the law. How can she not be anxious?

But Mr. Fang also knew that it was useless to be anxious at this time. Since Feng Sizhe had already come, and he was representing He Jiayu to deliver something, it proved that more than one person knew about this matter, and it was impossible to hide it. Besides, she had no intention of hiding it. Decades of revolutionary experience told her what the party was. Although it was impossible to be completely fair and open, the most basic fairness must be there. Since her grandson had done these wrong things, he needed to take responsibility.

Of course, it is unlikely for Ms. Fang to make a decision in a short period of time. After all, she also needs time to think carefully. She is thinking about how to best resolve this matter so that the law can reflect fairness while not making herself too sad.

But before making a decision, Mr. Fang still wanted to see what Feng Sizhe's attitude was. After all, he was told about this matter by someone else. If the result given could not satisfy the other party, it would obviously not work. "Governor Feng, how do you think this matter should be handled better?"

Feng Sizhe could feel that Mr. Fang's words were sincere, which at least proved that the other party did not look down on him and respected him, which was enough for him. Beforehand, he did not expect that he would be the one to solve this matter. He had already handed over the responsibility to Mr. Fang. Just as his grandfather said, as people who have experienced the test of war and have strong faith, they do not need others to guide and remind them.

"Mr. Fang, you just handle this matter. I won't interfere." Being impartial, Feng Sizhe would certainly not call the other party grandma, but would call her by her name, just like Mr. Fang called him Governor Feng.

"Okay." After listening to Feng Sizhe's answer, Ms. Fang nodded in satisfaction. This was what she wanted. Of course, she had to treat him fairly, otherwise, she would not be able to pass this test. This was a trust from a younger generation to an elder. If she didn't handle it well, others would look down on her. For someone of her status, face was naturally more important than anything else.

Soon, Feng Sizhe left the Fang Mansion. He did not ask Mr. Fang to make a decision immediately. He gave him time. Mr. Fang did not answer immediately. Obviously, this matter was also very difficult for her. Although her grandson was not directly involved in the lives of more than a dozen people, it was still very important.

No one knew that Feng Sizhe had returned to the provincial capital from Kyoto, let alone knew that he had secretly met Mr. Fang. In fact, even Ji Quanyong might not believe that Feng Sizhe would go to see his mother-in-law. In his opinion, even if Young Master Feng had this idea, his mother-in-law would definitely meet this talent.

After returning to the capital province, Feng Sizhe did not immediately start working. Instead, he took a day off. Then, on the ninth day of the first lunar month, he suddenly showed up at the provincial government compound. The leaders on duty were also surprised. It was clearly written on the duty list that the governor's work date was from the eleventh day of the first lunar month. He started working two days in advance, which caught everyone off guard.

However, the other provincial party committee leaders did not take Feng Sizhe's return to work two days early very seriously, especially those cadres from the discipline inspection department. They all thought that this person did it on purpose and was just talking big to win people's hearts. No one even thought about why this person came back early.

Seeing that Feng Sizhe had returned to the provincial government to start working, the Secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Commission Tang Jian, the Minister of Organization Su Hanmin, the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission Pang Yijun, the Minister of Propaganda Mou Ximing, the Minister of United Front Work Mei Guolong, the Standing Committee Vice Governor Zou Anlin, the Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee Zheng Qinghe, the Secretary of the Sichuan Municipal Party Committee where the provincial government is located Yang Dawei and others were still spending their New Year holidays as usual. Occasionally they would get together for dinner, and one of the main topics of the dinner was the Provincial People's Congress after the New Year.

This year's provincial people's congress is different from previous years, especially in terms of the government. In the past, it was just listening to the government's work report and the presentation of the next five years, but this year it involves whether Feng Sizhe will be promoted from acting governor to governor. Such a major event is of course of great importance to everyone, especially the people of the disciplinary system who are on the opposite side of them.

With the efforts of Tang Jian and Pang Yijun, they united a total of seven members of the provincial party committee, accounting for nearly half of the provincial standing committee. Their purpose was to embarrass Feng Sizhe. They had already thought about it and even made a decision to use the National People's Congress to make a fuss and try to prevent Feng Sizhe from taking this position. And if this is true, it can be imagined that even if the central government gave the order, Young Master Feng would not stay in the capital province. After all, everyone has to save face. If he doesn't even pass half of the votes, how can Feng Sizhe have the face to work in the capital province?
