Chapter 1420 A subtle and thoughtful game

Even more shocking things are coming...

After Wu Caiyang's nomination was completed, the General Secretary presided over the meeting again, and after he rose to a political level, he set the tone of the meeting, and then he made speeches in turn.

The Chairman has not made any statement yet, so it is time for the Prime Minister to speak.

The Prime Minister's expression at this moment is very different from the gentle and kind smile he often used in public. He looked serious and had a slight cold look in his eyes. He seemed to be angry. He first looked around and then said slowly and firmly: "Comrade Ye Tiannan voluntarily gave up the nomination for some personal reasons. After careful consideration, I agreed to his request. Because the incident suddenly happened, I didn't have time to inform Comrade Caiyang. Now, Comrade Caiyang asked to remove the nomination of Comrade Ye Tiannan's comrade."

Many people suddenly realized at this time. No wonder the Prime Minister's team added another nomination by Lu Minhong, which turned out to be sacrificed by Ye Tiannan... It was not right. The nomination by Lu Minhong was to compete with Cao Yongguo for the position of secretary of the Liao Provincial Party Committee, which meant that the Prime Minister completely gave up the competition for the throne of governor of Yan Province. Why no longer nominate other candidates to represent Ye Tiannan instead of nominating another Lu Minhong to increase the difficulty of Cao Yongguo's rise to power?

Could it be that he wanted to help Lu Minhong take over and replace Cao Yongguo?

A subtle game and an unimaginable variable. This nomination for candidates has changed again and again, and there is a good show to watch.

Wu Caiyang nodded slightly, not seemingly surprised: "Just follow the Prime Minister's instructions."

However, many people completely disbelief of Ye Tiannan's voluntary offer of nomination. In the face of the dazzling governor's throne, they are only one step away from sitting on the ground and will voluntarily give up? It's a big joke. I have never seen such a noble and noble person.

Everyone knows it. I am afraid that Comrade Ye Tiannan is forced to give up the throne of governor who is about to be obtained. There must be an unknown inside story behind the incident.

There were also members of the Politburo who knew that the situation in Hunan Province was undergoing drastic changes. Some even shook their heads gently and looked at the Prime Minister with a meaningful look.

Although Wu Caiyang was calm on the surface, he also secretly praised in his heart, "You are so clever!"

Originally, Premier Fu would say that Ye Tiannan was not suitable for serving as the governor of Yan Province, and then several heavyweights would agree. Unexpectedly, the Prime Minister made a quick decision and judged the situation, and immediately took retreat as advance, so as not to become the target of public criticism. Being soft and hard, it would be equivalent to protecting Ye Tiannan.

Otherwise, today it might ruin Ye Tiannan’s reputation!

Premier Fu also felt sorry for him. He missed the opportunity to step on Ye Tiannan, which made him slightly disappointed. Fu Xianfeng repeatedly emphasized that he should hit Ye Tiannan well, and he didn't want the Prime Minister not to give him a chance. He couldn't help but look at the Prime Minister a few more times, thinking that Ye Tiannan is really appreciated by the Prime Minister. It's still the time, and the Prime Minister still has the intention to defend him.

"Next, please continue to discuss." The General Secretary's face was as calm as usual. He was neither surprised nor asked about Ye Tiannan's temporary withdrawal. Of course, if Mi Jihuo or Ming Demou were present, both of them could notice the slight beating of the corners of the General Secretary's eyes, which was a slight unhappy expression.

After a small accident, no one of the giants expressed their doubts, and they didn't even have any intention of asking. Then they continued to hold a meeting and entered the discussion stage...

It is also the stage of formal competition.

...

It was afternoon. After playing a chess game with Lao Gu, Xia Xiang saw that Lao Gu was a little tired, so he asked Lao Gu to take a break, but Lao Gu waved his hands repeatedly.

"Don't sleep for a long time before your lifetime. After death, you'd better not sleep anymore. There's time to sleep in the future." He said with a smile, and then put on the chess again, "Another game."

Lao Gu's chess skills are not very good, but he likes playing chess in particular. He also considers each step for a long time, as if he is a master who takes one step and sees three steps. However, often he considers chess that takes one step for three minutes, but always makes Xia Xiang crack it in three seconds, which makes Xia Xiang feel that playing chess with Lao Gu is really a torture.

Not only does he strengthen his character, but he also wears his patience, but he also affects his judgment. He always waits for Lao Gu to come up with a wonderful move, but every time he is ordinary. What's strange is that once he relaxes his vigilance and does not think about the next step seriously, Lao Gu can always wait for him to relax a little, and he will use a killer move, which is really hard to guard against.

It also made him quite helpless.

Lao Gu is like a very difficult enemy. Although he is in sight of victory, he suddenly changes again, making it difficult to wipe out it in one fell swoop.

The summer is already deep, and the afternoon sun is still quite powerful. If it weren't for the old ancient house not in the city center, and the yard is full of green trees and lush flowers, I wouldn't be able to sit still in the courtyard.

Lao Gu didn't like to blow air conditioners. He would rather sweat a little in the yard than sit in the air conditioner, pursuing artificial coolness.

It took an hour to play a game of chess. In the end, although Xia Xiang won again, he won dangers and had several thrilling times, and was almost defeated by Lao Gu.

Finally, Lao Gu abandoned his son and gave in and laughed: "Do you think my chess quality is a bit rogue? To be honest, my chess quality is to tell you a fact. In the officialdom, character is not important, but skill and acting are important. Of course, the premise is also to have ability. This is the reality. A capable person may not be of good character, and a person with good character may not have skill and acting skills. So, you clearly think that my chess skills are not good, but a little relaxation may make me win... Are you convinced?"

Xia Xiang smiled, and stretched out his hands helplessly and threw the chess piece in his hand onto the board: "It doesn't matter whether he accepts it or not. It's important to learn to face and accept reality. After all, most of the time, reality is far from our beautiful wishes."

The chessboard is made of white marble, and the chess pieces are the best crystals, just like works of art, but Lao Gu will not treasure them, but will directly place them outside as ordinary chessboards, which seems to be a big shame and do not know how to cherish them. In fact, Xia Xiang admires the old antiques for their full use. After anything is worshipped high above, it seems to have doubled its value and become a treasure that everyone can see from afar. In fact, it has become a waste.

"Guess how long will it take to finish the meeting?" Lao Gu blinked and asked with a sly smile.

Xia Xiang also smiled: "I think you don't pay attention to the Politburo meetings."

"There is something worthy of my attention, and it's not OK if I don't pay attention to it." Lao Gu shook his head, "Have you ever thought about your next step?"

"Not yet... I only care about when ancient jade will arrive home." Xia Xiang looked around and said to him.

He also knew that Lao Gu had a certain friendship with the Prime Minister. At this Politburo meeting, the candidates nominated by the Prime Minister were extremely variable, and Lao Gu was also worried about the Prime Minister.

Of course, he didn't know that a dramatic scene had appeared at the Politburo meeting.

"Forget it, don't forget it." Lao Gu seemed angry, but he said with a smile, "When Yu Yatou comes back, I will ask her to accompany me to the Taoist temple on the mountain for a while, cultivate one's own character, and stay away from the right and wrong for a while."

It can be heard that Lao Gu seemed helpless and unwilling to do so, either targeting him or the Prime Minister.

Xia Xiangben wanted to ask about the adjustments in the military again, but after thinking about it, he still didn't speak.

Xia Xiang had also figured it out a lot. This time he had just had a little contact with the military, and almost caused a murder. In fact, he was lucky and lucky, because there was a precedent of accidental death due to interfering in military affairs. Of course, he could escape the difficulties calmly, and could not simply judge by luck, because he had already made plans.

Having the love of Lao Gu and Mr. Wu is the guarantee that he dares to cross the minefield slightly. But it also made him understand a truth: before he became the secretary of the provincial party committee and in the future, everything would be done in private and in the dark.

Whether it is to make a fortune in silence or keep a low profile, it is the king to keep a low profile. After all, some people still attach great importance to military power, and they may not let go until death.

Next step... What is next? He is really not mentally prepared. At this stage, the first priority is to push his father-in-law to the position. I wonder if Lian Ruohan's financial battle can really achieve the expected results?

When Xia Xiang was thinking, he looked up and saw Gu Yu holding his hands behind his back, raising his feet and walking lightly, and quietly coming back. When he saw Gu Yu's playful and funny appearance, he felt that the sky was wide and his mood suddenly flew into the sky.

...

The Politburo meeting discussed the nominations of Cao Yongguo and Lu Minhong in a lively and serious disagreement. If the Chairman and Secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection objected to Cao Yongguo's nomination, it was acceptable that the Prime Minister clearly showed a tendency to uplift Lu Minhong when commenting on Cao Yongguo, then it was somewhat difficult to understand. It was all the Prime Minister's own nominations, so how could he favor one and the other?

Could it be that the Prime Minister regretted the nomination for Cao Yongguo? Since he also believed that Cao Yongguo was no longer suitable to serve as the secretary of the Hei Liao Provincial Party Committee, why didn’t he give up Cao Yongguo’s nomination just like giving up Ye Tiannan?

As the Prime Minister's comments and attitudes showed, the Politburo members of the Civilians' Department have basically turned to supporting Lu Minhong, and Cao Yongguo's support has gradually decreased and the prospects are not good.

Just when everyone thought that since even the Prime Minister had given up on Cao Yongguo and Cao Yongguo would definitely be out of the election, the situation suddenly changed. Among the Vice Premiers, three Vice Premiers unexpectedly supported Cao Yongguo.

Subsequently, Wu Caiyang, Minister of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee, Jiang Xuesong, Secretary of the Beijing Municipal Committee, and Gu Qiushi, new member of the Politburo, all expressed their support for Cao Yongguo.

Later, if it is not too shocking to say that the General Secretary also expressed his support for Cao Yongguo in a tactful manner, two-thirds of the military also supported Cao Yongguo's attitude, some outsiders realized that the situation had changed drastically, which was not only dramatic, but also very subtle, and imaginative.

During the final vote, a shocking scene appeared. Many members of the Politburo of the Civilians, plus some members of the Opposition Force, unexpectedly raised their hands to support Cao Yongguo's nomination, which led to Cao Yongguo being at a disadvantage during the discussion, turning around and jumping to the top, and actually gaining more than half of the support.
