The evening meeting was arranged at Jingxin Manor.

Jingxin Manor is located in the suburbs of the city. It is both secluded and not very formal, so it is very suitable to talk about some semi-formal and semi-open topics. If only Xia Xiang comes out alone, it will seem too personal. If only Wu Tianxiao comes out to accompany him, it will be a bit too formal. With Wen Zixuan comes out, the meaning will be different.

Although Wen Zixuan is the deputy secretary-general of the provincial party committee, she is still a woman, a graceful woman. Therefore, her appearance can be regarded as accompanying as the deputy secretary-general, or just treating her as a pure woman, which can play a good role in ease and lively atmosphere.

Therefore, when Li Rongsheng and Feng Renlong appeared at the door of Jingxin Manor and saw Wen Zixuan standing behind Xia Xiang who was greeting him, they couldn't help but smile at each other, and they all understood Xia Xiang's careful arrangements.

Yes, the key figures Xia Xiang invited were Li Rongsheng and Feng Renlong, two people, but to be precise, the most critical figure was Feng Renlong.

Of course, it is not that Li Rongsheng is not the key, but because of the familiar relationship between Li Rongsheng and Xia Xiang, today's meeting is a natural meaning for him, but for Feng Renlong, it was the first time he met Xia Xiang in private.

Although it is actually the first time that Li Rongsheng sat with Xia Xiang in private. In the past, he was just a nodding friend in business. Although he had in-depth conversations, he had never had a real face-to-face friend-style meeting. Today, Xia Xiang invited him and Feng Renlong to attend the meeting at the same time, which was obviously of profound meaning.

Xia Xiang was downgraded to greet him at the door, and he was showing a sincere attitude, because Xia Xiang's ranking was higher than Li Rongsheng and Feng Renlong. Li Rongsheng was half a step behind and waited for Feng Renlong to take the initiative to move forward because Feng Renlong ranked higher than him.

Feng Renlong stopped moving forward, as if he was intentionally waiting for Li Rongsheng to take the initiative to move forward, and it seemed... he was deliberately waiting for Xia Xiang to take a few more steps. Li Rongsheng subconsciously glanced at Feng Renlong and thought about Feng Renlong, but he was quite thoughtful. The first time he was trying to test Xia Xiang.

Li Rongsheng and Feng Renlong are not in the same camp and have no personal relationships. However, Feng Renlong is quite straightforward and takes the initiative to go with him. He is not easy to refuse, so he goes on an appointment with Feng Renlong. In fact, according to his ideas, it is best to go their own way.

He also knew that Feng Renlong was actually Guan Yuanqu’s person, and Guan Yuanqu, as a representative of the family forces, actually had a connection with the four major families headed by the Wu family, but it was not as close as the outside world imagined. If the Wu, Mei, Fu, and Qiu families were representatives of emerging family forces, then another group of family forces headed by Guan Yuanqu was representative of the old family forces, and they had similarities and very different points with the four major families including the Wu family.

In essence, Guan Yuanqu will still be close to the family forces in terms of emotions, but once he takes power, he will inevitably maintain a close and close secret relationship with the family forces, in order to maintain the balance between several major domestic forces. Feng Renlong, as the first test of Guan Yuanqu's own forces in the local area, is also a trick to deliberately test the reactions of all parties.

Feng Renlong is not young anymore, and there is almost no possibility of further advancement to the official position. If nothing unexpected happens, Qi Sheng's term will be his last term, and it is also the reason why he has been very successful in Qi Sheng's term, because he will not have any ideas about the position of governor and the provincial party committee, and will inevitably be much more at peace in Qi Sheng's term.

Xia Xiang didn't seem to notice Feng Renlong's hesitation. He kept stroking his feet and took a few more steps forward. He came to Feng Renlong and Li Rongren, took the initiative to extend his right hand, and shook hands enthusiastically with Feng Renlong.

"Brother Renlong, I should have been treating you to dinner, and I couldn't find time. I finally caught up today. You said, it's not too late, right?"

Xia thought something was said, and Feng Renlong also smiled: "It's not too late, it's not too late. In fact, I should have reported to Xia *** for a long time, but it happened to be the National Day holiday, so it was a coincidence. It was my honor for Xia *** to come forward to treat me to a meal today."

Feng Renlong just returned from the capital. In fact, he had time to get close to Xia Xiang before National Day, but he didn't, which explained a little bit, but it had to be able to get through the big picture, so he said very politely.

The handshake between Xia Xiang and Li Rongsheng was much shorter, and he just shook hands lightly and even omitted the words. The less he said, the closer he seemed.

Xia Xiang then briefly introduced Wen Zixuan and Wu Tianxiao to Feng Renlong and Li Rongsheng.

Feng Renlong and Li Rongsheng were both in tune with each other and did not bring a secretary. After arriving at the room, Wen Zixuan warmly greeted several people to sit down and acted as a guest. Wu Tianxiao simply stood aside and did not take a seat. He was just a waiter.

Li Rongsheng first opened the topic: "I just came back from the capital. I heard that Xia *** and Feng *** both went to the capital? Unfortunately, we didn't have the opportunity to get together in the capital."

Basically, leaders at the vice-provincial level and above in each province will take time to enter Beijing every holiday, either go to the department to pay money, or visit old leaders and leaders, etc. In short, they all have their own business and are very busy, unless they retreat to the second line and have no intention. What's more, young senior officials in the deputy provincial province who are still promising like Li Rongsheng will inevitably regard the capital as a place to look up to.

It is unknown what Feng Renlong’s intention was to return to Beijing. However, as soon as Li Rongsheng finished speaking, Feng Renlong took over the conversation: "Xia *** has too much work in the capital. Even if Governor Li invites him, he may not be able to do it. Unlike me, when I went to the capital, I only met Chairman Guan once, and then returned to Lu City lightly with nothing to do."

Feng Renlong was also interesting. He pointed out right away that he went to the capital to meet Guan Yuanqu, probably because he had some hints.

Li Rongsheng smiled: "A coincidence, I also met Chairman Guan and said a few words."

Xia Xiang had not met Guan Yuanqu while in the capital. Not only did he not meet, but he didn't even call him. It was not intentional negligence or distant relationships, but the opportunity was inappropriate. When he met the general secretly and was grandly entertained by the chairman, Guan Yuanqu naturally would not come forward to meet Xia Xiang again.

Dai Fusheng also held the same idea.

In fact, what Xia Xiang didn't know was that whether it was Guan Yuanqu or Dai Fusheng, they had the original intention of meeting him in the capital. However, after learning about the private meeting between him and the general, they both gave up the idea, especially after he had a conflict with Wu Xiaoyang, as a hot key figure in the next Central Committee, it is not advisable to come forward to get close to Xia Xiang again, so as not to cause misjudgment from the outside world.

"Chairman Guan has always been very concerned about Qi Provincial's work." Xia Xiang followed the situation and raised his glass to respect Feng and Li, "I respect Feng *** and Governor Li with one cup."

After drinking for three rounds and talking about the five flavors, the atmosphere gradually became lively. It was mainly because Xia Xiang and Li Rongsheng were originally familiar with each other, and Feng Renlong might also think that there was a natural closeness with Xia Xiang, or maybe his trip to the capital had some hints from Guan Yuanqu. In short, the atmosphere between the three people came to saturation faster than expected.

There were also Wu Tianxiao interjecting a few times from time to time, and Wen Zixuan's existence also played an excellent role in ease and adjusting the atmosphere. After all, her every move was quite elegant and feminine. She also dressed up carefully, her light but not revealing makeup, just the right waist-hugging top and long-tufted women's pants that set off her graceful figure were all exquisite and charming. Although she was not deliberately seductive, she was drunk without being drunk.

No matter what purpose it is for a meeting, no matter what big or small things to talk about, the atmosphere is the first key. Only when the atmosphere comes, can there be a foundation for the conversation. When talking about Guan Yuanqu’s concern for the situation in Qizhou Province, Xia Xiang gradually put the topic on the situation in Qizhou Province.

Xia Xiang had only a little bit of the question, and Wen Zixuan understood it and started to think about Xia Xiang.

"This year's National Day was really lively. Governor Qin went to the capital but had a scandal in Lu City." Wen Zixuan's eyes turned, her eyes swept across Feng Renlong and Li Rongsheng's faces, and she said with a smile, "Don't laugh at all leaders. Women are just gossiping, mainly because Governor Qin's scandal is so interesting."

Xia Xiang did not stop Wen Zixuan. Feng Renlong and Li Rongsheng knew that Wen Zixuan had aroused the topic of Qin Kan's scandal, and then he would have an intention, so he treated it as a joke after dinner, with a curious smile on his face.

Wu Tianxiao asked, "What's interesting? Is it more interesting than Zhou ***'s scandal?"

Wen Zixuan said: "You are right. Governor Qin's scandal is really related to Zhou ***, because the heroine in the scandal is the same person..."

Wu Tian smiled and said, "Yang Yinhua? How could it be?"

"Why can't it?" Wen Zixuan waved her hand, "I didn't believe it at first, but later I heard that I had a nose and eyes, so I was curious for a moment, and I asked for it specifically..." When she said this, she blinked her eyes on purpose, as if she was embarrassed.

Wen Zixuan wanted to achieve the effect, and Li Rongsheng also took the initiative to cooperate and said, "I have heard of Qin Kan's scandal. Now the provincial party committee compound has spread. When he comes back, he will feel better."

Feng Renlong kept smiling and said nothing. When Li Rongsheng talked about this, he finally spoke: "I heard that Yang Yinhua had an affair with two provincial party committee leaders alone, which is also a strange story in the world, haha."

"It would be great if it was just a scandal. If you are afraid, you will be more storms after the scandal." Xia Xiangyu said earnestly, getting to the point, "I think, whether it is the General Secretary or Chairman Guan, I hope that the government change in Qi Province will be smooth and orderly next year."

Li Rongsheng remained silent, but Feng Renlong was very surprised and asked in surprise: "What does Xia *** mean?"
