Catastrophe

Deputy Minister Nian communicated with Lu Meng for a short time. After explaining the pros and cons to him clearly, he immediately let him leave.

Regarding this result, Lu Meng made preparations to sell Lu Linhuan without thinking.

The last time he talked to Lu Linhuan, the other party had already cut off his escape route, and he didn't call Lu Linhuan this morning, which also marked the unbundling of the relationship between the two parties.

Since the other party had already taken advantage of him, Lu Meng would naturally choose to give up Lu Linhuan without hesitation to protect the interests of his family.

Deputy Minister Nian's father-in-law was the former number one member of the Lu clan elders' association, but he did not step down after the expiration of his term of office. Instead, some scandals broke out under the operation of Lu Linhuan.

As the governing body of the Lu family, although everyone knows that each other's butts are not clean, in order to maintain the dignity of the collective, the dirty things on the body must not be disclosed to the public.

In this case, the father-in-law of Deputy Minister Nian could only excuse his illness, voluntarily relinquish his power and take a back seat, and died in depression.

Without the support of his family background, Deputy Minister Nian's career would stop there, so he always hated Lu Linhuan in his heart.

At this time, being able to bite Lu Linhuan back through Lu Meng, Vice Minister Nian was of course happy to seize this opportunity.

Lu Meng, who had already chosen to stand in the family, didn't care what role he would play in this political battle, or that he was actually making new choices.

Lu Linhuan's status was much higher than that of Vice Minister Nian, but now that Lu Linhuan was terminally ill, if Lu Meng could do something for Vice Minister Nian, he would still be able to gain vested interests.

Today's Lu Meng did not realize that he had gradually become the person he despised before.

Lu Meng had an idea in his mind, and after he went out, he called Lu Linhuan's mansion.

On the other side of the phone came the voice of Secretary Lu Linhuan: "This is the Lu residence, who is it?"

Lu Meng stood in the shade and lit a cigarette: "I'm Lu Meng. I want to meet and chat with Duke Huan about something. Please make an appointment for me."

"Gong Huan just had a minor operation this morning, and it's not convenient to meet anyone now. Please wait for the news."

The secretary dropped a sentence and hung up the phone directly.

Lu Meng listened to the busy tone on the phone. Although he was feeling irritable, he couldn't do anything about it.

Politics is such an interesting thing, although it is cold, it is also human.

Taking Deputy Minister Nian as an example, although his father-in-law has stepped down, if he is still alive, his current career path must be much easier, even if his father-in-law no longer has any power in his hands.

The root cause is human greed.

Although these old guys have retired, they have not loosened their grip on power. With them as the hub, the disciples and grandchildren below will continue to obey, and other forces will also give face.

After all, everyone will grow old. If anyone doesn't show respect to those old men, they will end up the same when they get old.

Therefore, the other side of politics is actually sophistication. Everyone gives face to each other, which can benefit everyone. If this rule is broken, no one will get the dividend, and everyone is a victim.

In the same way, Lu Linhuan's situation is the same. Although he is already a cripple, he still hangs with one breath after all.

According to the unspoken rules of politics, as long as this breath is still there, Lu Linhuan's status will still be there. The secretary said that Lu Meng couldn't see him, so even if Lu Meng was in a hurry, he could only choose to wait.

At noon that day, Lu Meng ate something casually in the canteen of the military region, and then went to the afternoon meeting. However, his mind was in a mess this afternoon. As for what the meeting was about, he even said a few words. didn't listen.

At six o'clock in the evening, an officer in charge of presiding over the meeting put away the speech and said to everyone: "Everyone, our meeting this afternoon is over here. The military department has prepared a dinner party in the small auditorium. You can choose whether to participate or not. The guest house of the military region has also prepared a room, and those who need to rest here tonight can register themselves with their documents and end the meeting."

Lu Tao got up with everyone, walked to Lu Meng's side, and walked out with him: "Did Dad call you this afternoon?"

"No." Lu Meng shook his head: "When you got home at noon, did you tell Dad about the revolutionary army?"

"Well, I had a casual chat with my dad about this issue. It's obvious that the Lu Heng family came up with it against our family. Regardless of whether this matter has anything to do with you, I have to say hello to my dad. , let him respond in advance, it is estimated that Dad didn't call you because he didn't want to disturb your afternoon meeting."

Lu Tao paused for a moment: "I have already talked to Dad about your transfer, and I also said that you will go home for dinner at night. It is estimated that he will chat with you at the dinner table tonight."

After listening to Lu Tao's words, Lu Meng felt inexplicably nervous in his heart. For so many years, he had worked hard outside himself and hardly used the relationship at home. Now he decided to be a little sheep and bow his head to Lu Tianhe. He said something to him. I really don't know how to say it.

The two brothers left the military compound and got into Lu Tao's car. Just as the car was about to enter the inner city, Lu Meng's phone suddenly rang. Said: "Hello, who is it?"

"I'm Duke Huan's secretary." After introducing his identity, the other party continued: "Gong Huan wants to see you, now."

Lu Meng knew that Lu Linhuan's physical condition was special, and he had a reason to see him, so he immediately responded, "No problem, I'll rush over now."

"Our location is not in the inner city, but in the outer city. Come to Youlongcang in Xicheng District as soon as possible and call me when you arrive." People from outside come here."

Lu Meng glanced at Lu Tao on the seat in front of him, and asked vaguely, "Why are you outside?"

"You are aware of Duke Huan's situation. His body has undergone a new reconstruction operation, and this kind of thing is carried out in top secret. There are too many spies and secret agents in the inner city, so it is inevitable that there will be no accidents."

The other party answered Lu Meng's question impatiently, and then continued: "Gong Huan will have a major operation tonight, so there is not much time left for you. If you want to come, come as soon as possible. If you miss it for your own reasons I can't guarantee whether Duke Huan will have free time to see you tonight."

"Understood, I will go there as soon as possible." Lu Meng hung up the phone, leaned forward and said to Lu Tao, "Second brother, I have urgent matters to deal with here. Dinner tonight may be delayed for some time."
