Huo Shaoheng didn't reply to Zhao Liangze's question at all. He only silently turned on the computer on his desk and threw a memo to Zhao Liangze at the same time. There were four words on the cover: Leave no one alive.
Zhao Liangze nodded heavily and sighed softly. He clenched his fist and punched the palm of his other hand. "I'm relieved to know that you won't let them go! We can't let Nianzhi suffer for nothing. Also, I want to vomit when I think about these people stabbing us in the back while we're out on a dangerous mission! "
All the field personnel at the Special Operations Forces headquarters base were furious about this incident.
They weren't afraid of bloodshed, sacrifice, or the cunning of their enemies. What they were most afraid of and most pained about was being betrayed by their own people.
Huo Shaoheng was also angry, but he couldn't express it as openly as Zhao Liangze. He only waved his hand and told him to go make arrangements without worry. At the same time, he called Yin Shixiong in and said, "General Ji wants you and Little Ze to attend the inauguration of the new Prime Minister. Do you want to go?"
Yin Shixiong froze. "I'll go if Huo Shao goes."
He was working for Huo Shao anyway, so he would go if Huo Shao wanted him to go. As for General Ji, there was still a layer of separation.
Huo Shaoheng grunted. "I'll have Little Ze attend on behalf of our forces. You don't have to go. Come with me on a trip in two days."
"Yes, Chief."
Yin Shixiong had no interest in the inauguration of the new Prime Minister at all.
In reality, the Special Operations Forces ran as far away as possible from such public events. They didn't want to get involved at all.
General Ji actually didn't want them to go either, but Tan Dongbang's Prime Minister's office repeatedly called him. Later, even the Prime Minister's wife, Cai Songyin, personally visited him and solemnly expressed her gratitude to the Special Operations Forces for specially rescuing her daughter, Tan Guiren. That was why she specifically asked the Prime Minister's office for three tickets to the best seats. She even emphasized that these three tickets were with the Tans' VIP seats and wouldn't arouse any suspicions …
General Ji was very uncomfortable, but because of the Tan and Cai families, he didn't reject her outright.
However, when the invitation was sent to the Special Forces, Zhao Liangze reported to him that Huo Shao and Big Xiong were not feeling well, so he was the only one who could attend. General Ji smiled with satisfaction and said kindly to Zhao Liangze, "Since Shaoheng and Big Xiong are both sick, you are the only person in charge of the Special Forces. It wouldn't be good to transfer you away to attend the inauguration, so you have to stay. How about this, I'll help you tell Mrs. Tan that we appreciate their good intentions, but it's a pity that the heavens don't follow our wishes. We have no other choice, hahahahaha … "
Zhao Liangze was speechless.
After hanging up, Zhao Liangze thought about it carefully and couldn't help but admire Huo Shaoheng even more.
If they could win General Ji over to their side, it would be convenient for them to do anything.
This was the convenience of using the tiger's skin as a flag.
…
On Saturday night, General Ji personally called Prime Minister Tan Dongbang's wife, Cai Songyin.
"Mrs. Tan, what a coincidence. Shaoheng and Big Xiong are both sick. One has a fever, and the other has diarrhea. They won't be able to attend Prime Minister Tan's inauguration tomorrow. Please apologize to Prime Minister Tan on our behalf. And Little Ze, because Shaoheng and Big Xiong are both sick, Little Ze can't leave. This is confidential, so please understand. "
Cai Songyin frowned. "General Ji, Huo Shao is sick? What illness? How come two people are sick at once? Is there anything serious? Do you want me to bring a doctor to take a look at him? Dr. Cai from the Imperial Capital Harmony Hospital is my cousin. Her medical skills are very good. "
The corners of General Ji's mouth twitched. He couldn't stand Cai Songyin's overbearing attitude anymore.
Things in politics were all about a tacit understanding. Basically, they wouldn't openly fall out with each other.
Huo Shaoheng was using such an obvious excuse to not attend the inauguration to express his dissatisfaction with the Tans, so he wouldn't help them.
Ever since Huo Shaoheng's conversation with General Ji that night, General Ji had accepted his point of view. He believed that someone was indeed trying to drive a wedge between him and Huo Shaoheng. Therefore, he was even more dissatisfied with the Tans. He was even more unwilling for his own general to be their bearer.
Most importantly, one was the military, and the other was the Cabinet. They needed to avoid suspicion, and it was best not to get involved if possible.
Huo Shaoheng was General Ji's designated successor. He absolutely didn't want Huo Shaoheng to leave the impression that he was "currying favor everywhere."
He was a soldier, and he relied on his own abilities and risked his life for his future. He was completely different from the Tans, who relied on their glib tongues and tricks to get elected.
"Haha, Mrs. Tan, are you saying this because you don't trust the doctors from the Military 314 General Hospital? You might not know, but our national miracle doctor, Little Chen, is currently working as a resident doctor at Shaoheng's base, "General Ji said sarcastically before hanging up.
Cai Songyin hadn't reacted yet when she realized General Ji had already hung up. She couldn't help but be very unhappy.
"That's so rude. As expected, soldiers are all uncouth … "Cai Songyin secretly criticized General Ji. Of course, she wouldn't dare to say it out loud even if she had ten times the courage.
She went to the study to find her husband, Tan Dongbang.
"Dongbang, Huo Shao and the other two won't be coming tomorrow. What do you think is going on?" Cai Songyin sat on the sofa angrily and took a sip of tea. "I took special care of Huo Shao, so I asked someone to call and invite him first. Then I sent an official invitation for General Ji to pass on, but they actually said they were sick and couldn't come."
Cai Songyin didn't believe that Huo Shaoheng and the others were sick at all. She thought it was an excuse.
Huo Shaoheng didn't waste any effort to find an excuse. He wanted to express his attitude and let them know that he didn't want to come.
Why didn't they want to come?
Figure it out yourself.
Tan Dongbang was nervously preparing for his speech at the inauguration tomorrow. When he heard Cai Songyin's complaints, he felt that she was going overboard. He coughed and said, "Forget it. It's reasonable that they don't want to come. Think about it, they're a subordinate organization of the military. General Ji and the others are already here, so why do you need Huo Shao and the others to come? Also, Huo Shao personally helped us save our daughter. We can't thank him enough, so don't be so calculative. "
Cai Songyin was feeling very unhappy. She didn't expect Tan Dongbang to not only not comfort her and share the same hatred for the enemy, but also criticize her. She twisted her body and said unhappily, "How can you say that? Am I doing it for my own pride? I'm doing it for our baby daughter! "
"Someone?" Tan Dongbang frowned. "What's wrong with her? Is she sick? I haven't seen her come out for meals for the past two days. "
"She's sick." Cai Songyin beamed at the mention of her daughter. "That's why I'm looking for medicine for her."
"What's wrong with her?" Tan Dongbang was nervous. Although he only had one daughter, he loved her dearly and had truly raised her like a princess.
Of course, Tan Guiren was also very sensible and obedient, so she never caused trouble for her parents.
This time, she had suffered greatly in the United States, so Tan Dongbang pitied her even more. His fatherly heart didn't know how to dote on her.
"What's wrong with her? Of course it's mental illness and lovesickness. " Cai Songyin picked up the small round fan on the coffee table and waved it. "Your daughter has fallen for you, but you won't help her as a father, so I have to do it."
Tan Dongbang raised his head and stared at Cai Songyin for a long time before saying, "You say she really likes Huo Shao?"
"How could it be fake? Our daughter really has good taste. " Cai Songyin clapped her hands together. "I just spoke with Huo Shao's father, General Huo, on the phone yesterday. General Huo is very modest and refined, much better than General Ji. I didn't have a good impression of these soldiers to begin with. You know, both our families are centuries of scholarly families. Now that you're the Prime Minister, both of our families will be able to rise to the next level, so we have to be even more cautious when it comes to the marriages of nobles. But the Huo family is different. I got someone to investigate. Did you know? Although Huo Shao's grandfather was of average birth, Huo Shao's grandmother is actually a member of the Xie family … I really didn't know before. The Huo family is really low-key. "
Tan Dongbang's eyes lit up. "Really? That Xie family?! "
In terms of established aristocratic families, the Tan and Cai families could only carry shoes for the Xie family.
"I understand. I've really troubled you all this time, Madam." Tan Dongbang walked out from behind the desk with a smile and sat on the sofa next to Cai Songyin. He reached out to massage her shoulders. "Come, Mrs. Tan, you must be tired. Your husband will help you loosen up."
The couple had been childhood sweethearts since they were young, and their families were well-matched. When they grew up, they naturally got married and had a good relationship.
Cai Songyin was full of smiles as she patted the back of Tan Dongbang's hand. "It's good that you understand me. This time, I originally wanted Huo Shao to stand together with the nobles like a family. That way, if we broadcast it live on national television, it'll basically be a done deal. "
Who would've thought that Huo Shaoheng would completely ignore such a great honor?
Tan Dongbang thought about it for a while and said after careful consideration, "… Your idea is good, but Huo Shaoheng is probably not someone who is willing to use his wife's connections. Also, think about it, his grandmother is the daughter of the Xie family, so why would he need to use our connections? So we have to change our method. We can't push him too hard. More haste makes waste. "
"Ok, I'll listen to you. Anyway, it's for our daughter's lifelong happiness. "
Although the Prime Minister's inauguration was the next day, the husband and wife, who loved their child dearly, still spent most of the night discussing how to help Tan Guiren win over Huo Shaoheng, the "son-in-law."
…
At 10 o 'clock on Saturday night, Gu Nianzhi rode her bike and carried her backpack as she returned from studying at the library.
Under the dim yellow streetlights in front of the dormitory building, Gu Nianzhi saw the silver Bentley Bentayga SUV again, as well as the handsome man leaning against the SUV's door smoking.
She sighed and parked her bike in the parking lot next to the dormitory building. Then she slowly walked over and stood in front of Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng threw away his cigarette and smiled at her. "You're back so late? You don't even have a day off on Saturday? "
His expression had originally been solemn and silent, and there was an indescribable majesty in his handsome features. However, the moment he saw Gu Nianzhi, a faint smile appeared on his face. It was like a beam of warm light that illuminated the cold autumn night.
