Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Xie Kaiquan was very clear in his mind that no matter whether he supported some of the Ji faction's decisions in the past or whether he was really a member of the Ji faction, just because he was Mr. Fang's godson and Ji Quanyong's godson, he had an inextricable connection with the Ji faction, which he could not erase or deny.

For this reason, he also had reason to believe that no matter how much he did, he would never be able to gain Feng Sizhe's complete trust. Based on this idea, he was also worried that he was just a transitional product, and that he might be sidelined once the new vice governor arrived.

But until now, after Feng Sizhe clearly expressed his thoughts, Xie Kaiquan finally understood that those were rumors after all, and Feng Sizhe had always trusted him very much. He immediately expressed his position, "Governor, thank you for your trust. Don't worry, I will definitely do my best for the economic development of Ducheng Province."

"Haha, Old Xie, I don't need you to promise me anything. Through my observation over this period of time, I know you very well. I know that you and I have a common goal, which is to develop the economy of the capital province. In this regard, we have the same point in common. And I also believe that it is too accurate for you to serve as the deputy governor of the standing committee. This is also the final reason why I support you." After saying these words with a smile, Feng Sizhe's tone suddenly became a little heavy again, "But Old Xie, you also have to understand one fact. Although I am the governor, I only have the right to make suggestions on this position. The real decision-making power is not mine. Of course, for this matter, I will use my connections, but for safety reasons, I think you should also go to Kyoto and pay a visit to Ms. Fang. If she is willing to speak for you, then I think the success rate of this matter should be higher."

Feng Sizhe would not be so arrogant as to think that with his recommendation, Xie Kaiquan would definitely be qualified for the position of deputy governor of the Standing Committee. As the saying goes, a lion will use all its strength to fight a rabbit, not to mention that this is a deputy provincial position with real power. If he is arrogant and replaces this position with someone else, it will create a strong obstacle for him to lead the overall progress of the province's economy.

This position cannot be lost, and he hopes that Xie Kaiquan can shine in this position, so he found him and said these words.

How could Xie Kaiquan not know that Feng Sizhe was really doing this for his own good? Although he was reluctant to ask for help, he also knew that at this moment, all dignity had to be put aside. For the sake of the economic development of the province, he was just asking for help, so what did it matter?

After thinking it over, Xie Kaiquan said, "Okay, Governor, I will go see my godmother. I believe I will get his support."

Seeing Xie Kaiquan agreed, Feng Sizhe's face was also relieved. He was really afraid that Xie Kaiquan would stubbornly refuse to listen to advice and ask for help for the sake of so-called face. He knew very well that some officials could not be obtained by waiting, but really had to run for it.

With his support and Xie Kaiquan's willingness to find Mr. Fang, Feng Sizhe believed that this matter would not be a big problem. So he said, "Okay, I will go back to Kyoto in the next two days. When the time comes, you can deal with the things at hand and go with me. I will introduce some friends to you, and you can take this opportunity to visit Mr. Fang."

Feng Sizhe took Xie Kaiquan and left Ducheng Province.

Feng Sizhe's departure immediately caused a lot of discussion among the top leaders of the Capital Province.

In Xu Chaoqi's office, he was holding his chin in his hand, deep in thought.

Xu Chaoqi had also heard a lot of rumors, and he believed them. He thought Feng Sizhe would not use someone like Xie Kaiquan. After all, this person had a very close relationship with the Ji family. If he used such a person, wouldn't he be afraid that one day he would unite the existing forces of the Ji family to oppose him? Wouldn't that be like shooting himself in the foot?

Therefore, Xu Chaoqi, like most people, believed that Feng Sizhe was just doing a superficial job, and in order not to arouse too much hostility from the Ji family, he only used Xie Kaiquan temporarily. But now as the two of them left for Kyoto, he knew that things were not as he thought. It seemed that Feng Sizhe really wanted to use this godson of the Ji family.

If this is the case, what exactly does Feng Sizhe want to do? Is he really not afraid of the disciplinary system becoming bigger again? Or is he really interested in Xie Kaiquan's personal ability?

If it was the former, then it could only be said that Feng Sizhe was too arrogant. Although most of the vice governors in the provincial government did not dare to offend him because he was in power, the executive vice governor Zheng Defu was not his man. If he appointed Xie Kaiquan as the standing committee vice governor, and this person turned against him, then his position as governor would not be stable. After all, the second and third in command of the provincial government did not give him face, so how could his backyard be stable?

No matter who you are, arrogance will only result in suffering, and Xu Chaoqi believes that the same is true for Feng Sizhe.

And considering that Feng Sizhe is a smart man, he would not let such a dangerous thing happen to himself. Does that mean that he did it out of the second point, because he really valued Xie Kaiquan's ability and was acting out of public interest?

Everyone has a public spirit, but it only occupies a very small part of human nature. And in such a big thing as power that can influence many people, how many people can really do this? If Feng Sizhe really has such a heart, then Xu Chaoqi really has to look up to this person, and even have to be on guard.

Everyone has shortcomings, and as long as their weaknesses are discovered, they can be defeated. But if a cadre truly devotes his heart to the people and the country, then he is invulnerable and the most terrifying.

Compared to Xu Chaoqi's confusion, other cadres in the discipline department were indeed somewhat happy.

Feng Sizhe was not only trying to stabilize the people of the Ji Clan, but he really wanted to use Xie Kaiquan. This undoubtedly made the Ji Clan happy from the bottom of their hearts, because they were afraid that Feng Sizhe would use the Ji Clan as a scapegoat. Now it seems unlikely. He not only did not punish Ji Quanyong's adopted brother, but also promoted him vigorously. Would he really use the Ji Clan as a scapegoat? This is simply impossible.

For a time, most of the disciplinary cadres who were originally anxious or even frightened calmed down and focused on their work. This quickly stabilized the situation in the capital province, and this effect was something Feng Sizhe had not expected.

In Kyoto, Feng Sizhe received a call from Zhang Yang. During his absence from the capital, he basically relied on this comrade to contact him whenever there was anything going on there.

Listening to Zhang Yang saying that after Xie Kaiquan and himself came to Kyoto, the morale of the cadres in the Capital Province has been greatly stabilized, and all work is proceeding in an orderly manner, he laughed, and then said to Xie Kaiquan who was preparing to go to Mr. Fang's home in Kyoto, "Old Xie, you must succeed this time, otherwise, those cadres in the Capital Province will definitely think that I am acting, bringing you to Kyoto openly, but in fact I don’t really want to help you, I just pretend to do it. If this is the result, the Capital Province may be in chaos again for a while."

Xie Kaiquan only smiled in response, "The governor thinks highly of me. They are actually just worried about themselves. They just want to associate my performance with themselves."

"Yeah. Okay, anyway, I wish you all the best." Feng Sizhe looked at Xie Kaiquan with a smile, and then asked him to stop the car, because at this time, their car was parked not far from Mr. Fang's house.

Xie Kaiquan calmly took some special products of the capital and strode towards Mr. Fang's front door.

In this house belonging to Mr. Fang, Afang had already received a call and was waiting for Xie Kaiquan here.

As soon as she saw Xie Kaiquan coming honestly, she smiled and took the things from him, then said "please."

As someone accompanying Mr. Fang, Afang knew very well that Xie Kaiquan was very much loved by the chief. At that time in the Capital Province, the only people who could enter Fang's house at any time without notifying were Ji Quanyong and the person in front of him.

Xie Kaiquan was also very familiar with Afang. He smiled and said thank you before following her into the courtyard. This was his first time to visit Mr. Fang's home in Kyoto, and everything he saw was full of novelty.

In the hall of the courtyard, Xie Kaiquan saw Mr. Fang, but he was surprised to see Ji Quanyong here as well.

Thanks to Mr. Fang's strong connections and qualifications, although Ji Quanyong made a wrong judgment on the matter of Xichuan, he was eventually able to successfully enter the Central People's Congress and successfully got the opportunity to make use of his remaining energy.

"Xiao Xie is here, please take a seat." After seeing Xie Kaiquan, Ms. Fang's face showed a bit of joy. If it weren't for this person, if he hadn't saved her life, maybe she would have met Ma Ksi long ago.

Xie Kaiquan was really scared and said, "Thank you, godmother." Then he turned to Ji Quanyong and said, "Hello, Secretary Ji."

"Hey, this is home, you just need to be my elder brother." Ji Quanyong waved his hand. Although his relationship with his sworn brother had been a little unsatisfactory since Feng Sizhe came to the capital province, this could not change his love for Xie Kaiquan. Not only did this man do favors for the Ji family, but more importantly, he was indeed very capable and a good official.

Ah Fang came over and handed over a cup of hot tea, then left tactfully. At this moment, only Xie Kaiquan and the other two were left in the hall.
