Ma Si'an sat quietly in the lobby of the hotel, looking down at his watch from time to time, casually coping with the flattery of the general manager of the hotel, with a nervous expression.The hotel had been under martial law an hour ago, and the lobby was quiet and a little cold, with a few necessary staff members standing cautiously at their posts, occasionally secretly looking at their boss.They didn't know Ma Si, but looking at the cautious attitude of their boss, fools knew that this middle-aged man who looked a little strange was an absolute big man.It's just that this kind of big man will wait for someone, and he has been waiting for nearly half an hour, which can't help but make everyone curious.The hotel boss who has been carefully accompanying him by Ma Si's side is even more curious.Curious and a little intimidating.Youzhou high-ranking officials gathered, powerful people abound, Ma Si's level is far from the highest in Youzhou, but looking at the entire Middle Continent, it is qualified for Ma Si to sit and wait here without the slightest temper, and there are also a few.First Deputy Director of Zhongzhou Public Affairs Department.This identity is here, and there is no need to say anything at all.It is not the official office of the Cabinet of the Central Continent, and it is not the official office of the military department of the Central Continent.It's a simple Zhongzhou business office.Institutions at the level of parliamentarians.The so-called first deputy director can be said to be the veritable first secretary of Zhongzhou.The big secretary next to the president, the whole of Middle-earth, how many people are qualified to let him sit and wait here?
The hotel boss has carefully recalled many times, and he has not remembered which way the gods came to his hotel."
Ma Hall, do you need to urge, you have every opportunity, in..."
The boss accompanied the smiling face, cautious, he naturally knew that the person who could make Ma Si wait here would not be small, but at least the attitude, he should still express it.Ma Si's somewhat nervous face eased a little, and he shook his head with a smile: "No, it's almost there." ”He looked down at his watch again.Nine forty o'clock.He shook his head and smiled wryly, it had been more than forty minutes since the meeting, and he hadn't even picked up anyone yet.The president is also very self-contained, and he has not urged it until now.The boss nodded and said with a smile: "Recently, a new black tea has been launched in the store, it tastes good, I asked someone to send it, you can try it." ”Ma Si nodded indifferently, and just as he wanted to say something, the elevator door not far away slowly opened, and a young man who looked no more than twenty-four or five years old walked out unhurriedly.Ma Si's whole person popped up as if he had been loaded with a spring, and a warm and respectful smile instantly appeared in the whole person.He trotted out of his seat, and stretched out his hands from afar, and the wind was blowing at his feet, and his smile became more and more enthusiastic.The boss looked at this scene dumbfounded, and subconsciously stood up, not knowing whether to step forward for a while.Marth's face had turned into a flower with a smile.This attitude is even more exaggerated than that of him following the president."
Your Highness, hello, hello, I'm Ma Si."
Ma Si walked quickly to Li Tianlan's side, his hands stretched out.Li Tianlan shook his hand casually and said lightly: "Hello, Ma Hall, I've been waiting for a long time." ”"Not long after, I also just arrived, and it snowed heavily today, and the road conditions were relatively average."
Ma Siyan was insincere, and held Li Tianlan's palm with both hands.Li Tianlan felt the other party's enthusiasm and glanced at him with some amusement.Ma Si's smile became more and more respectful, and he even bent down slightly subconsciously.His position may not be the core layer, but he is undoubtedly the person who can see the scenery of the core clearly, as Li Huacheng's secretary, he knows the cause of a series of things, knows the process of everything, as for the ending, because it didn't happen, he can't speculate, but he already knows the choice of his own leader.Li Huacheng refused to continue working with Chen Fangqing.Things have reached this point, Chen Fangqing may still want to continue to be crazy, but no one dares to continue to play with him, the situation is about to erupt, what Li Huacheng wants to do most now is to re-stabilize the already precarious situation.The suppression of the North Sea must be stopped.At the same time, the East Imperial Palace and Li Tianlan must also make sufficient compensation to achieve a new balance.Balance is compromise.Since there is a compromise, there must be sacrifice.Launched the termination plan, sealed off the desert prison, and directly caused tens of thousands of deaths Chen Fangqing will naturally become a victim, and the entire prince group will even be struggling because of this, and now there is less than a year before the general election, at this critical point, the prince group will suffer unprecedented huge losses, even greater than the loss of the East Palace in the desert.The Southeast Group and the Special Operations Group, which have long been holding back the fire, are eyeing each other, and since the academic faction has compromised, it will naturally not give up the interests in hand, and when it comes to Ma Si, he naturally hopes that he can get a piece of the pie.He is Li Huacheng's secretary, and his predecessor has been sent to a certain province in the northwest two years ago, it can be said that he is a real feudal official, this election, Li Huacheng whether he is re-elected or not, he will generally release a real power position, the huge exchange of interests before this election, his name will definitely appear on the list of academics, in front of Li Tianlan is familiar, when Li Tianlan does not support him, let alone say, as long as Li Tianlan does not object, Ma Si's future is bright.Ma Si's heart was a little emotional.He looked at Li Tianlan with full awe in his eyes.Today, this young man, who is not yet twenty-five years old, is already a real pivotal figure in Middle-earth.The Li Clan, the Tiannan Free Army, the City of Sighs, the Wealthy Group, the Beihai King Clan, the Lin Clan, and even part of the forces of the Tiandu Purgatory...
All the ups and downs of all parties are gathered on Li Tianlan.Ma thought about the lieutenant general of the Northern Xinjiang Military Region who died at the hands of Li Tianlan.thought of what Li Tianlan said to the miniature camera before the lieutenant general died.It was a phrase that no one was destined to forget.If I really left Middle-earth because of this, it wasn't that I betrayed Middle-earth, but that Middle-earth betrayed me.Zhongzhou does not live up to me, I live up to Zhongzhou.Li Tianlan may have been a little reluctant to say this before, but now he has enough qualifications.Standing at the pinnacle of personal force, the future of almost dominating the dark world in the future, the thriving Eastern Palace, and the dense network of relationships...
All this combined had to make Zhongzhou consider the consequences after losing Li Tianlan.It's not a question of whether you can afford it.It's a question of whether you're willing to bear it.If the Eastern Palace and Li Tianlan hadn't broken through the blockade of the desert prison in the end, it might have been another story.But now Li Tianlan appears in Youzhou.In order to stabilize and rebalance, Zhongzhou must give Li Tianlan an explanation.even use the entire prince group to give him an explanation.Ma Si's body trembled, thinking of the upcoming wind and rain, his scalp was numb, and his whole body trembled a little."
Don't be nervous."
Li Tianlan narrowed his eyes: "Let's go now, don't let the president wait too long." ”"Yes, yes, Your Highness is right."
Ma Si took a deep breath, bent over, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, please." ”Li Tianlan nodded, and walked in front as a matter of course.The hotel boss stood there, wanting to step forward, but he didn't dare, his body stiffened, and he subconsciously bent over, a little embarrassed."
Your Highness, this is the general manager of the hotel, if you have any requirements, you can tell him."
Ma Si introduced with a small smile.Your Highness?
What is this bizarre name?
The boss's brain was at a loss for a moment."
Huh?"
Li Tianlan glanced at him, nodded and said, "My lover likes the red bean cake here very much." ”"Okay, Your Highness, I'll arrange it right away and send it to Madame."
The boss nodded subconsciously.Li Tianlan hummed, turned around and walked out of the hotel lobby.The boss maintained a bent posture until Li Tianlan and Ma Si walked out of the hotel, straightened up slightly, and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.He didn't know what this highness was about, but this one's momentum was too strong, and he looked plain, but standing in front of the other party, he was almost out of breath, until his figure disappeared completely, and the boss suddenly remembered that he didn't even introduce himself because he was too nervous just now. ......Outside the hotel, the wind and snow were blowing.Ma Si walked down the steps of the hotel, took a few quick steps, and opened the door of the red flag car with a special license plate with his own hands.Li Tianlan sat in, looked at the wind and snow outside the window, and was silent.The hotel is not far from the Hidden Dragon Sea.Ma Si cautiously chatted with Li Tianlan, and found that Li Tianlan was not interested in chatting, so he turned on the stereo in the car casually.Before a piece of music was finished, the vehicle had slowly entered the Hidden Dragon Sea.The Hidden Dragon Sea was covered in silver, but the road had been cleared, the vehicle stopped in front of the Golden Autumn Pavilion, and Li Tianlan's eyes were locked on the main entrance of the Golden Autumn Pavilion.Li Huacheng was standing there, smiling with an easy-going smile, as if he was admiring the snow.Whether it was admiring the snow or something else, at this time, he was standing here, which could be said to have given Li Tianlan enough face.Ma Si quickly opened the car door for Li Tianlan.Li Tianlan took a deep breath and got out of the car."
Tianlan is here."
Li Huacheng smiled gently and beckoned to Li Tianlan."
President."
Li Tianlan nodded, looked at the old man who seemed to leave a way out for himself at any time, and his voice was a little cold: "The president is so interested." ”Li Huacheng laughed and walked over with a cigarette, and the heavy snow fell on him, staining him with a faint layer of white.Li Tianlan raised his eyebrows slightly, and a sword intent appeared beside him, soft as the wind, sweeping away the snow on Li Huacheng's body."
Out of the way."
Li Huacheng walked up to Li Tianlan and took a puff of cigarette.He looked up at the snow in the sky and said meaningfully, "This snow is clean. ”Li Tianlan looked at him quietly and did not speak."
Come with me."
Li Huacheng patted Li Tianlan on the shoulder and stepped forward: "Let's talk casually and have a meal together at noon." ”Li Tianlan followed Li Huacheng and said flatly: "I'm not here to talk casually. ”"Hmm."
Li Huacheng nodded and laughed: "Then what do you want to talk about?"
”"Let's talk about Middle-earth."
Li Tianlan looked at Li Huacheng: "I don't know if I have this qualification?"
”Li Huacheng was silent for a while, and said softly: "I remember you said a word, you said two years ago, you are the overall situation of Zhongzhou. ”"I said that before I went to the desert."
Li Tianlan said lightly: "You said that you would wait until I came out before I was qualified to say this."
Now that I'm out, my point of view hasn't changed, and from now on, I'm the big picture of Middle-earth. ”"So what?"
Li Huacheng's voice was a little muffled in the wind and snow."
You're a good president."
Li Tianlan said calmly: "Even now, I have no hostility towards you, standing in your position, you are more qualified to say this than me, but you are not the overall situation, but the person who controls the overall situation, you have done a lot of things for Zhongzhou, and you have indulged a lot of things, such as the Beihai Wang family, such as Chen Fangqing...
This may be what you think about the overall situation, but now, I am standing here, and the future of Zhongzhou should also focus on me. ”His voice paused, and his tone became extremely tough: "This is not a negotiation, this is my request." ”"The person in charge of the overall situation..."
Li Huacheng was silent for a long time before he laughed lightly, his tone was a little complicated, and the question was extremely sharp.He looked at Li Tianlan's eyes and asked directly, "Can I control you?"
”Li Tianlan's voice was as flat as water, without the slightest fluctuation.He said something he had said."
Zhongzhou does not live up to me, I live up to Zhongzhou."
