Rebirth of the Rising Sun

After his daughter and grandson left, Mr. Fang asked, "Quanyong, how do you think we should solve this problem?"

Listening to his mother-in-law's words, Ji Quanyong thought for a moment and said, "Mom, I want to know one thing first. How did you get these things? Who gave them to you?"

"What? You want to suppress this news?" Mr. Fang looked at Ji Quan and asked. She knew a little about her son-in-law, so she guessed something from what he said.

"Yes, Mom." Ji Quanyong admitted.

"It's useless. These things were sent to me by Feng Sizhe. Just this morning, his grandmother He Jiayu came to me." Mr. Fang said this in a flat tone. He said this to tell Ji Quanyong that this matter had to be resolved after all, and it was impossible to conceal it.

"Feng Sizhe?" Ji Quanyong was stunned when he heard the name, and then he understood. Yes, there are not many people in the Capital Province who have the power to investigate these things, and Feng Sizhe is undoubtedly one of them. This time, his grandmother also came forward. Although from the perspective of the central government, Mr. He is far less influential than his mother-in-law, but his father is Mr. Zhao, who is a well-known figure in the military. Especially in recent years, his influence has been increasing day by day. Such a person will never listen to his mother-in-law. In other words, this matter cannot be suppressed.

But what Ji Quanyong couldn't understand was why Feng Sizhe handed these materials to his mother-in-law instead of submitting them to the organization or to a higher level. He was a little confused.

Seeing her son-in-law frowning, Ms. Fang guessed what he was thinking, so she said, "To be honest, Feng Sizhe still behaves properly. He doesn't want to make a big deal out of it, but such a big thing can't be suppressed, so he sent this thing to me. This can be regarded as giving us face. It is better to let us solve it ourselves than for the organization to come forward to solve it."

Mr. Fang's words made Ji Quanyong agree deeply. That's right, if he knew about it in advance, he could always do something. This is much better than letting his son be taken away without knowing it. "Yes, Mom, you are right. I am afraid we owe Feng Sizhe a favor this time. Alas, I didn't expect Dapeng to become like this in these years. But now that it has happened, it can't be concealed. I think he should just keep it to himself."

I have to say that Ji Quanyong is a very principled person. At least he did not suggest ways to change everything, but just tried to find ways to make the results better.

Ji Quanyong's words made Ms. Fang nod involuntarily, indicating that she was satisfied with her son-in-law's answer. He did not avoid the problem or shirk the responsibility, but tried to make the result better. This is the way of the wise and the style of the great man. It is no wonder that her son-in-law could become a provincial governor with her help. She was right.

"Well, you are right. Self-defense may be the best way to solve the problem at the moment." Mr. Fang said slowly.

Hearing his mother-in-law say this, Ji Quanyong sighed softly. In his opinion, it seemed that this was the only way to solve the problem.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Fang spoke again, "I have been thinking about this problem for the past few days. After thinking about it, it seems that the method you proposed is the most appropriate. However, He Jiayu came to see me this morning and gave me an idea, so I came up with a second way to solve the problem."

Ji Quanyong was stunned at first when he heard his mother-in-law say this, and then he asked happily, "What's the second method?"

Since Mr. Fang can say this, there must be a second method. And it seems that the second method is better than the first. Since it concerns the future destiny of his only son, Ji Quanyong will naturally be a little excited.

"Well, the second method is what He Jiayu said, let Dapeng stay in Kyoto. His every move will be monitored, but at least he doesn't have to be locked up. Of course, his former assistant named Li Qing must be sentenced by law, and should be sentenced to death." Seeing her son-in-law's reaction, Ms. Fang was obviously satisfied, so she told her son-in-law everything He Jiayu had said to her.

"That's it?" Ji Quanyong said in surprise. For such a serious matter, his son was only under surveillance and confined to his home. Obviously, this punishment was the lowest in his opinion.

"Of course it won't be like this." Mr. Fang smiled bitterly and shook his head. "He Jiayu also told me that I must leave the capital province and live in the central government. She said that only if Dapeng is with me will people feel more at ease. Of course, this is also what some people above want."

"Ah!" Ji Quanyong was stunned when he heard this condition. For many years, his mother-in-law has never left the capital province. Of course, she would go whenever there was a big event in the central government, but as soon as the matter was over, she would come back quickly. It was also because Mr. Fang was in the capital province that Ji Quanyong was able to firmly occupy the position of the top brother in the capital over the years. Even though he has retired from the position of secretary, he still manages all the big and small things. But even if the central government knew about these things, it didn't say much. All this was because of his mother-in-law. Because his mother-in-law was in the capital province, other people couldn't say anything. But what if his mother-in-law left? He was thinking that if he monopolized power like this, he was afraid that it would not work, and the higher-ups would definitely intervene.

It can be said that the mother's departure in exchange for the son's temporary safety is the wishful thinking of the higher-ups. These cases have already happened, and even if Ji Dapeng is arrested, nothing can be changed. Instead of doing this, it is better to exchange for some practical benefits and take the opportunity to transfer Mr. Fang to Kyoto. In this way, it is equivalent to trapping a dragon in the shallows. Without the platform of the capital province, Mr. Fang will not be able to achieve much in Kyoto. Moreover, this can be regarded as a punishment for Ji Dapeng. Instead of letting this person stay in jail for a few years, it is better to confine him for life, which will be more effective. It should be clear that those things were done by Li Qing on the surface after all. Although he said that all this was instructed by Ji Dapeng, if he must deny it, without sufficient evidence, he really can't be done to him. At most, he will be locked up for a few years.

The above calculations were very satisfactory, that is, they punished the person and transferred the mother-in-law away, which can be said to have achieved the goal. Ji Quanyong quickly judged this.

But then again, even if Ji Quanyong saw it, what would it matter? If his mother-in-law was determined, what could he do to change it? For the sake of his grandson, he believed that his mother-in-law would do such a thing.

"Mom? Have you...have you decided?" Ji Quanyong wanted to ask again tentatively. Of course, he knew that the answer was already there.

"Well, I've decided. For Dapeng, I have to do this. You know, Dapeng's health has not been very good in recent years. If he is really put in jail for a few years, I don't know if he can come out alive. He has never suffered any hardship since he was a child. After all, I am old. Even if I can protect you, how many years can I have? So it won't be a loss for me to retire now. Besides, you are not the secretary anymore. You will have to retire from the Capital Province sooner or later. I will go to Kyoto first to lay the foundation for you. Maybe if it goes well, after you finish your term as the director of the National People's Congress, I can get you a job in the Central People's Congress or the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. You can also make use of your remaining heat, and then I will retire with honor." Ms. Fang was very calm when she said these words. Of course, all this was done as a son-in-law. In fact, she was a little excited. She didn't want to leave the Capital Province, and wanted to help her son-in-law for a few more years. It's just that her grandson is in trouble now, and she has no choice.

Ji Quanyong had been the top leader for so many years, so his IQ was not to be underestimated. Although his mother-in-law looked calm when she spoke, he could understand the ripples in her heart. He knew that his mother-in-law had to make a great sacrifice for her son. "Mom, I'm sorry for putting you through this."

Just these words almost made Ms. Fang burst into tears. At least someone understood what she did. "Hey, Quan Yong, there is one more thing I want to tell you. I heard that Tang Jian and his team are going to make some small moves at the Provincial People's Congress. I think you still have to take care of this matter. Feng Sizhe's appointment as governor is the will of the central government. We can't change it. If you try to do this, it will only anger some people. You can't bear the consequences. Do you understand?"

Suddenly hearing his mother-in-law talking about Feng Sizhe, Ji Quanyong realized that these must have been said by He Jiayu. That's all. Since this matter was known in advance and people had already made certain preparations, there was no point in continuing. Besides, he did owe people a favor in Ji Dapeng's matter, so he should just repay him. "Okay, Mom, I know what to do."

"Well, let's put it this way. Pack up and I will take Dapeng to Kyoto in three days. They have already arranged accommodation for me. I heard the location is pretty good. I will go there to retire." As he said these words, there was some helplessness in Mr. Fang's tone.

Because the country was founded not very long ago, there are still some old comrades staying in various places across the country. Because these old comrades made outstanding contributions when they were young, the central government is very cautious, which also makes it impossible to centralize power. In recent years, the upper level has begun to integrate this part of the power. In fact, Ms. Fang knew very early that she could not stay in the capital province for too long, but she still wanted to stay for a while and do more to help her son-in-law, but now it seems that there is no chance. In this case, it is better to go to the central government. At least with her qualifications, she can live well there.
