Chapter 191 He Must Be Carried Away

Chapter 191 He Must Be Carried Away

Small courtyard.

Yu Zecheng was repairing the bed with a hammer and nails.

“It’s all your fault, you hypocrite.

"I wish you could rock me for 23 days a month. Not to mention the bed, even a person would be torn apart by you."

Cuiping stood by with her arms folded and chatted with him.

“It seems like a bit too much.

"It was okay to shake it when we first got here, but now we're an old married couple, well, we have to be more moderate."

Yu Zecheng agreed.

“What else are you saying?
"Today I was at the stationmaster's wife's house, and she was knitting a sweater for her grandson and she asked me.

"We both said we didn't want children.

"They also said that if the secretaries of the Bureau of Secrets give birth, the headquarters will reward them and they can also get promotions and salary increases."

Cuiping Road.

“There is such a provision.

“Dai Li came up with it.

“Why should I take you in? Once a man has a wife and children, he is like a kite with its string firmly in their hands.

"Do you think they don't want us to have children?
"Dai Li was a man who understood human nature very well and would do anything to get what he wanted. Fortunately, he is dead, otherwise our life would be even more difficult.

"By the way, how did you answer?"

Yu Zecheng sighed twice and asked again.

"I thought you were a grown man and I couldn't let you down, so I thought it was my fault.

“But on second thought, that’s not right.

"With my physique as strong as a bull, there's no reason why I can't have children.

"Besides, what if she takes me to a foreign hospital for a checkup?
"I've thought about it carefully, no, you have to take the blame, it's better for you to fail than for me.

"She can't drag you to the hospital for a checkup, right?"

Cuiping answered seriously.

Yu Zecheng put down the hammer and looked at her straight.

"What, what's wrong? Did I say something wrong again?" Cuiping was a little panicked.

"without.

“You did the right thing, knowing that thinking is progress.

"Comrade Cuiping, it seems that you are gradually adapting to this job."

Yu Zecheng smiled and continued to stare at the bed.

"Hey, I was scared to death.

"Well, let me tell you, as a guerrilla leader and party group chairman, I can't do this job."

Cuiping was feeling proud again.

“Yes, yes.

"You are so capable. You can chop off the Japanese's heads with yours. Even the Chairman couldn't do anything to Ke Chengwu, but you took him down easily." Yu Zecheng nodded repeatedly.

"I'm glad to know." Cuiping brushed her nose, looked up and smiled happily.

"Let's talk business.

"Now that you've captured Ji Weimin, will the headquarters promote you to lieutenant colonel and deputy station chief?"

Cuiping saw that he had been busy for a while, so she poured him a glass of warm water.

“Promotion is certain.

"This is a matter concerning the chairman's reputation. Even if Jianfeng doesn't like me, he should give his old man some face.

“As for being the deputy station chief, the station chief will definitely fight for it for me.

“But Zheng Jieming won’t give in.

"The civil war is getting more and more intense now. Our base camp is very close to Beijing and Tianjin. We may be liberated in just one nap.

“So now there are fertile lands such as Jinhai, Shanghai, and Beiping.

"Municipal government, garrison, gendarmerie headquarters, city defense bureau."

“Not to mention a deputy leader, even the heads of departments and divisions, and even deputy department heads, have been fighting tooth and nail.

"Everyone wants to take advantage of the last minute to make a fortune.

"When Ke Shufen celebrated her birthday this year, Lu Qiaoshan donated almost all of his wealth, and it is said that he even asked his son Lu Ming to kowtow to Ke Shufen and acknowledge her as his godparent.

“Otherwise, when Li Ya nominated the deputy station chief, Zheng Jieming would have personally stepped forward.

“Now Li Ya has fallen.

"There is no reason for Zheng Jieming to spit out the fat meat that is already in his mouth.

"Unless Lu Qiaoshan dies suddenly, or does something as stupid as Li Ya did.

"Otherwise, the position of deputy station chief will definitely fall on his head."

Yu Zecheng shook his head and said.

"Or I can find a deserted corner at night and shoot him.

“You have to be ruthless when you need to be ruthless.

"If you become the deputy station chief, Li Ya and his men won't dare to investigate us."

Cuiping said.

"nonsense.

"I just got promoted and Lu Qiaoshan was shot by someone. I was fine but now I am in trouble.

“Besides, there’s no one that Li Ya wouldn’t dare to investigate.

“Wasn’t Ma Kui checking the stationmaster the same?
"Besides, Li Ya is backed by Jianfeng, so you can still go to Jingling's official residence to assassinate him."

Yu Zecheng rolled his eyes at him.

"If you want to assassinate me, then do it. Why are you afraid of that?

“That is, there are no conditions.

"There are conditions. If they dare to appear within my sight, I will definitely shoot them in the head."

Cuiping said unconvinced.

Yu Zecheng smiled and shook his head: "They are surrounded by spies everywhere. Guns, axes, throwing knives and the like cannot be brought in. Otherwise, Lao Zhou and his men would have succeeded long ago."

dong dong!

As he was speaking, there was a knock on the door downstairs.

"somebody is coming."

The two of them packed up briefly and went downstairs.

"Who?"

Yu Zecheng pulled out his gun, held the door handle with one hand and asked vigilantly.

"It's me." Li Ya's voice came from outside the door.

Yu Zecheng put the gun in the shoe cabinet drawer, opened the door, and said with a smile:
"Oh, it's Captain Li, what a rare visitor."

"Captain Li, I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. I didn't even have time to clean up the mess at home." Cuiping simply tidied the sofa.

"where.

"This is what we call a lively life. It's nothing like me being alone and lonely." Li Ya said with a smile.

“You are not alone.

"I went to play cards, and the ladies said that you had a girlfriend who sang the role of a Hua Dan in the opera troupe, and she was very beautiful.

"The old man of Brigade Commander Tian's wife celebrated his birthday and invited her to sing in an opera."

Cuiping said.

"You are talking about Xiao Yunxian.

“It blew.

"I was blind last time and took Lao Yu's kindness for granted, so my sugar business went down the drain.

“Yuan Peilin is lost again.

“Without money, there is no hope of promotion.

"People think I have no future, so I follow a rich young man to enjoy the good life."

Li Ya sighed softly with self-pity.

“Cui Ping!
"You're really bringing up something that's not relevant.

"Go up."

Yu Zecheng frowned and scolded.

"I'm sorry, Captain Li." Cuiping laughed awkwardly, glared at Yu Zecheng secretly, and went upstairs.

"Captain Lee.

"Country women are ignorant, don't take it seriously."

Yu Zecheng welcomed him to the sofa, poured him some tea and apologized.

"Alas, since ancient times, love has always been full of regrets.

"The girls in theaters and brothels are so fickle that they just do whatever they want. I can let that go.

"I envy you, my sister-in-law, you are virtuous and your husband follows your lead."

Li Ya smiled.

“No matter where, they always quarrel.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore.

"Captain Li, it's so late, is there something wrong?"

Yu Zecheng smiled and said.

“Nothing, I just feel a little anxious.

"You know, I came late, and I don't have any other friends except you, my old classmate.

"Come and talk to you, don't bother me."

Li Ya crossed his legs and leaned back on the sofa.

"do not bother.

"We are classmates in the Qingpu class, and disciples personally trained by the stationmaster.

“As for relationship, there is no one closer than us.

"I wish you would come to visit more often."

Yu Zecheng said hurriedly.

"Did you know that Lao Wu is dead?" Li Ya asked.

“Old Five?

"I know. Last time, I had a conflict with someone in the casino and was stabbed twice by a drunkard. Then he disappeared. Director Lu asked me about it a few days ago."

The rest will become the Tao.

“Did Lu Qiaoshan ask you?
"Is this true?"

Li Ya's brows furrowed as he caught important information.

“Really, there’s nothing I can’t say.

"Director Lu came to me because Lao Wu owed the station money a long time ago. At that time, Director Lu was also in charge of the General Affairs Department.

"Director Mao is currently carrying out reforms.

"Each person is responsible for one thing, and all the old accounts between Lu Qiaoshan and the deceased Zhou Yafu must be settled.

"Old Five's stall doesn't match up, but he's not in a hurry."

The rest will become the Tao.

“Oh, if you don’t believe it, you can also ask people from other departments.

"The torture room, the security department.

"Director Lu has asked many people.

After a pause, he said again.

"Old Five only owes a few cents.

"Ask around everywhere. He must have done too many bad things out of desperation."

Li Ya's eyes turned cold and he sneered.

"no.

"Captain Li, your look makes me panic.

"I didn't say anything wrong, did I?"

Yu Zecheng asked quickly.

“The day I interrogated Dong Cheng, someone set a trap for me.

"Lao Wu deliberately left the interrogation room empty, waiting for me to go in.

"Do you remember who was responsible for disposing of Dong Cheng's body?

“Who dealt with Yuan Peilin’s body?

"Who put it in the newspaper?"

Li Ya sneered and asked.

"Yuan Peilin's body, I know this, Inspector Li of the police station.

"I really don't know who arranged for Dong Cheng's body to be taken away by the stationmaster. Didn't you bite me at that time?
“I didn’t dare to say a word the whole time.

"I don't have the energy to ask."

The rest will become the Tao.

“I was also bewitched at the time.

“Don’t mention it.

“Let’s talk about the two bodies. After Yuan Peilin was killed, the first person to rush to the hospital was Lu Qiaoshan.

“According to my people, he also brought a camera.

“Such a secret matter was reported in the newspaper early the next morning and almost put me to death.

“Don’t talk about Yuan Peilin.

"Let's talk about Dong Cheng. I admit that I was provoked and used heavy hands.

“But his body was disposed of by Lu Qiaoshan.

“It was burned overnight.

“Then Lao Wu was stabbed in the casino.

“Isn’t it obvious that there is something fishy going on?
“I suspect Dong Cheng was most likely bewitched or poisoned.

“Otherwise, why was the body disposed of so hastily?

“I managed to rescue Lao Wu from the brink of death.

"Lao Wu had already promised me that he would tell me about Dong Cheng in two days.

“As a result, I was stabbed tonight.

"One after another, isn't it obvious?

"This is not just about stopping me from being the deputy station chief, this is about wanting my life."

Li Ya narrowed his eyes and sneered. "Captain Li, if you say so, Dong Cheng's death is indeed strange.

"Wait, when you nominated the deputy station chief, I, I and Lao Lu...

“Old schoolmate.

"Let's put it this way. I did help, but I know nothing about Dong Cheng's affairs."

Yu Zecheng stood up in panic.

"Sit, sit.

“We had a misunderstanding.

“You helped me carry sugar, I misunderstood you.

“You don’t want me to be the deputy station chief and connect with Lu Qiaoshan.

"After our visit, we are even now.

"I know Dong Cheng's death has nothing to do with you. Someone is setting a trap for me and wants to bury me alive.

"I just don't do what he wants."

Li Ya commanded like a master, crossed his legs and pressed his hands down.

"You, you scared me to death.

"Brother, you are a member of the Iron Blood Youth League, and Jianfeng is behind you. Let alone the murder of Yuan Peilin, even if Jinhai City was lost by you, who can touch you?

"I'm different. I was looked up to by Boss Dai just because I shot Li Haifeng dead. Now, none of the gods, Jianfeng, Zheng, or Mao can stand me.

"If you blame yourself for something as trivial as a sesame seed, you might lose your head."

Yu Zecheng said with fear.

"Lao Yu, if I doubt you, I won't come tonight.

"real.

"I really consider you and Secretary Hong as friends."

Li Ya smiled.

“Then I thank you.

"Old classmate, look at me. I grew up in the countryside of northern Hebei. I risked my life to kill Li Haifeng and was shot several times.

"I managed to save my life with great difficulty, and now I can earn a living from my teacher and live a decent life.

"You said you came here just to ruin my business.

“How can I not be afraid?

"If it were you, I would either send you to jail or transfer you away from Jinhai. Would you be willing to do that?"

Yu Zecheng rolled up his sleeves, leaned forward and asked sincerely with a heart-to-heart look.

“Jinhai, a paradise on earth.

“To be honest, a general officer or station chief transferred out is not as good as a section chief in Jinhai.

"Director Shen knows.

"He was taken to Yunnan by Mao Renfeng.

"Before I left, I had submitted several reports, saying that I wanted to go to Shanghai, Tianjin, or Haikou, and even said that I would be willing to take a deputy position.

"Mao Renfeng was stunned.

“So I understand your feelings, brother.

"We've exposed this matter."

Li Ya felt the same way and stretched out his hand to shake hands with Yu Zecheng.

"Yes, that's what we should do.

"Look at the stationmaster, Zheng Jieming, and Jianfeng, aren't they classmates?

“They have such a close relationship.

"Why do classmates become enemies when they come to us?"

Yu Zecheng put his left hand on Li Ya's hand and shook it vigorously.

"Yes.

"We need to improve our relationship and not let some villains take advantage of us."

Li Ya withdrew his hand, stared at Yu Zecheng, paused and said:

"Old Yu, I heard today that the stationmaster said that after he went to Jingling, Lu Qiaoshan would take over the work at the station. You don't seem very happy?"

"I, I'm really not that cunning, but you've seen through it." Yu Zecheng refilled his tea while shaking his head and smiling bitterly.

"You have performed a great service in Ji Weimin's case.

"Once you come down as lieutenant colonel, you will have the same rank as me and Lu Qiaoshan, and you will be eligible to be nominated as deputy station chief."

Li Ya said.

“Don’t, don’t.

“I can only think about it.

"In terms of qualifications and connections, how can I compete with you two for this position? Isn't that asking for trouble?"

Yu Zecheng waved his hand and smiled, then leaned closer and whispered:
"Have you heard?
"Hou Yunlai went back to his hometown. The stationmaster was going to hold a democratic vote within the station, but Lu Qiaoshan asked him to have a cup of tea and then he ran away.

"Still can't you understand?
“Lu Qiaoshan is determined to take on the position of deputy station chief.

"I……"

Yu Zecheng shook his head and waved his hands repeatedly.

"I messed up Yuan Peilin's matter, there's no hope for me as deputy station chief.

“But I can’t stand the mean behavior of Lu.

"Don't worry, as long as you want to be the boss, I can carry you up."

Li Ya said.

"Captain Li, please don't. As the deputy station chief, I can only dream.

"So what if I'm promoted to lieutenant colonel for my meritorious service?

“Director Zheng doesn’t love.

"Director Mao wanted to kill me. You've heard about Mao Sen sending people to Jinhai to steal antiques. It was I who ruined it by accident.

"If the stationmaster hadn't protected me, Wang Puchen would have taken me to Peking and executed me secretly."

Yu Zecheng said.

"Zheng Jieming will be transferred to the Ministry of National Defense as Vice Minister in March.

"Mao Renfeng is just acting like a mean person.

"You are helping the chairman this time, so the stationmaster will definitely pass on the message to Jianfeng to nominate you.

“Jianfeng will definitely ask me about your performance and situation in Jinhai.

“I will spare no effort to recommend you.

"As long as Jianfeng nods, who are Mao Renfeng and Zheng Jieming?"

Li Ya smiled contemptuously.

"In a word, do you want to be the boss or not?" He looked at Yu Zecheng seriously.

“Deputy Station Master, who wouldn’t want to do it?
"Why do you come out here and shed your blood? Isn't it just to get a small official position, a title for your wife and children?"

Yu Zecheng quickly expressed his position.

"Okay, with your words, I feel relieved.

"Wait.

"I will protect you as the deputy station chief."

Li Ya stood up, put one hand in his pocket, patted him and walked out.

"Old classmate, take care. I'll see you off."

Yu Zecheng hurriedly chased after him with a flattering look on his face.

He sent Li Ya to the car before returning to the house.

“Old Yu.

"I just heard Li Ya say that he wants to make you the deputy station chief. Is this true?"

Cuiping went downstairs and asked happily.

“Well, it’s possible.

"This guy holds a grudge. Lu Qiaoshan has tricked him. He will definitely fight back."

The rest will become the Tao.

"Very good.

"If you become the deputy station chief, you will be the second most important person in the station and will be able to get your hands on all kinds of confidential documents." Cuiping was delighted.

“It’s not that simple.

“Besides, it’s just something you can listen to, there’s really no need to take it seriously.

"Zheng Jieming has already nominated Lu Qiaoshan, and I am from the 'Dai faction' and have nothing to do with either side. I think it will be difficult to move Li Ya," said Yu Zecheng.

"Why.

"You said that damn Dai Li should have died sooner rather than later.

"The sooner you die, the less harm you will cause to our comrades.

“Later, at least he will ensure that you become an official, and it won’t be too late to crash the plane then.

"Really."

Cuiping said angrily.

Yu Zecheng smiled and said nothing.

It doesn’t matter whether Dai Li died early or late, his death was celebrated by everyone.

"By the way, which faction does the stationmaster belong to?"

After going upstairs, Cuiping asked curiously.

"Webmaster?"

Yu Zecheng has never really thought about this issue.

The webmaster seems to be very good at dealing with people.

Jianfeng, Zheng Jieming, Shen Zui, Xie Ligong, it seems that except Mao Renfeng, there is no one they can't get along with.

But then again.

No matter how smooth and worldly-wise you are.

Isn’t there also a Mao Renfeng who has been making trouble for a long time?
"Go to sleep."

Yu Zecheng said no more.

……

The next day.

When Hong Zhiyou came to the station, he went to the stationmaster's office to clean and wipe the tables, chairs, sofas, and tea sets one by one.

The webmaster is not here.

He often called Yu Zecheng to his office to play chess.

“Zhiyou, Li Ya said he wanted to help me up.

"Do you think it's credible?"

Yu Zecheng asked in a low voice.

"Believable.

"The position of deputy station chief is yours." Hong Zhi nodded.

"Then I will accept your good words as a half-immortal." Yu Zecheng said with a smile.

“I’m not kidding.

"Is Lao Lu here?"

Hong Zhiyou made a move, with wisdom gleaming in his eyes.

"coming.

“I heard that Lao Wu had died, so I rushed to the hospital early in the morning.

"You are talking about this Old Lu.

"Isn't it just that I owe the General Affairs Department a little money? Is it necessary to pursue it so closely?"

Yu Zecheng was quite puzzled.

“That’s called being obsessed with money.

"Old Five is dead, and according to Director Mao's instructions, he will bear a certain percentage of the deficit.

“Although it’s only a few dozen silver dollars.

“But with Lu Qiaoshan’s personality, he wants to see the person alive or dead. If he doesn’t see Lao Wu dead, he can keep denying it and dragging it out.

"For these few dozen silver dollars, he will definitely go for an autopsy."

Hong Zhiyou had seen through this man long ago.

"Why.

“Money really is a blinding delusion.

"Li Ya is suspecting that Lu Qiaoshan and Lao Wu are playing tricks on Dong Cheng.

"He's rushing off to perform the autopsy now.

"Doesn't this make Li Ya even more certain that he did it?"

Yu Zecheng shook his head.

"So, some people are smart all their life but confused for a moment." Hong Zhiyou said.

This was exactly the effect he wanted.

It can be said that it was a blessing in disguise.

The stationmaster went to Jingling, and on the matter of Dong Cheng and Yuan Peilin, his position always sided with Li Ya.

So, the two come together.

In Li Ya's opinion, the suspicion is the least.

It was Lu Qiaoshan who, in order to raise money, just gave Li Ya a chance to "sit firm".

……

Action team.

Li Ya had his legs on the desk and was listening to music with his eyes closed.

Gao Yuan walked in: "Captain Li, as you expected, Lu Qiaoshan went to the hospital and examined the body himself."

"hehe.

“It’s indeed him.

"This is because they are afraid that the assassin will not be able to do his job efficiently.

"Lu Qiaoshan, you are so shameless.

"You keep messing with me.

"If I don't carry you away this time, I won't be named Li!"

Li Ya sneered and clenched his fists tightly.
