In a hurry, winter has gone, spring has come again, and it is a new year.
With the stability of the capital and the local area, coupled with Zhao Heng's iron blood and the full help of members of the Zhao family, Zhao Heng took the position of president of China without any suspense, becoming the most powerful and youngest president in the past twenty years. The first thing he did when he took office was to fight corruption with an iron fist. A working group led by the top ten Zhao family members vigorously inspected important provinces and cities in China.
For Zhao Heng, he never believed that Zhao Dingtian's anti-corruption campaign 20 years ago was a mistake. The reason for its failure was not that killing too many people caused the four major families to unite and rebound, but not killing enough people to allow them to have the strength to retaliate. Zhao Heng let Heng The disciples dug a thousand pits in the suburban cemetery and prepared a thousand coffins to show their bloody and determined anti-corruption campaign!
Suddenly, the country of China was in a state of turmoil.
Of course, Zhao Heng also allows officials with minor crimes to surrender. As long as they hand over double the amount of corruption gains, they can have a good old age. As soon as the announcement came out, countless officials with dirty tails came out the first time the inspection team left the capital. Two days later, he turned himself in to the anti-corruption bureau of the province and city where he was located. The money he handed over was equal to China's annual tax revenue.
No one thought about resisting or running away.
In addition to the strict blockade of entry and exit, there is also the fact that Zhao Heng has already issued a presidential decree. Anyone who dares to abscond abroad will be punished no matter how far away they are, and their family chickens and dogs will not be left behind. Although this presidential decree is very inhumane and inhumane, it also brings There was a blood that was not in line with modern civilization, but no one thought that Zhao Heng was joking, and no one tried Zhao Heng's butcher knife.
When corrupt officials feared retribution and surrendered to relevant departments to seek leniency, countless incompetent officials also submitted resignation reports to their superiors. Although these people adhered to principles and remained clean, they would not have their heads chopped off by the anti-corruption knife, but Zhao Heng Their superiority made them understand that the days of reading a newspaper and a cup of tea would gradually go away and never come back.
They had no skills and knew that they could not just hang out in the workplace and wait until they retired as before. Zhao Heng, who was axiologist, would drive them away sooner or later. Leaving a step later was more risky than leaving early. So in less than half a month, 30,000 officials After resigning, Zhao Heng took the opportunity to streamline his troops and streamline his administration. He also used the benefits of the resigned dignitaries to subsidize the current officials, simplifying his administration and increasing their salaries.
The official efficiency has doubled as a result.
Among all the officials, the ones who suffer the most are the big tigers who have committed serious crimes of corruption and bribery. They know that they are like ants now and may be killed by Zhao Heng at any time, even if they are willing to abdicate and let the wise hand over their family wealth. They may not be able to escape the disaster of death. A thousand big pits and a thousand coffins prevent them from even sleeping well.
So while seeking communication with Zhao, they secretly formed a group to survive.
When China began to undergo earth-shaking changes, everyone speculated when Zhao Heng, who had concentrated power, would begin to amend the constitution and grant himself the legal power of lifelong president like Vladimir Putin. There were even some people who were good at watching things and wrote to the Standing Committee. I hope that the Standing Committee can take the initiative to propose constitutional amendments to allow Zhao Heng, a talented man, to devote his life to the country.
There are also some honest officials who think they have integrity and are indeed capable, either publicly or secretly, began to curse Zhao Heng, saying that Zhao Heng is really a dictator who has never been seen in history, and that his becoming a lifelong president is a regression of social civilization and is incompatible with the world. The values ????are completely inconsistent. He should be struck with thunder and lightning, and ten thousand feet should be stepped on to prevent him from turning over.
But what is strange is that the powerful Zhao Heng not only did not accept the proposal to amend the constitution, but also announced in front of all front-line officials that he would never amend the constitution and would not become a lifelong president. Once the ten-year term is up , he would abdicate in accordance with the rules. Zhao Heng also severely punished the officials who made suggestions and asked them to go back to the Party School to study for three months.
¡°Is it possible that Zhao Heng is not only not a tyrant, but also a kind and loyal person that is rare in all generations?
With such doubts and peace of mind, the situation in China has once again calmed down and gained momentum. During this period, India and the Philippines took advantage of the turbulent situation created by China's iron-blooded anti-corruption campaign. In order to test China's latest policies, they also In order to save the lost face in the past, more than a dozen warships used Chinese fishing boats to cross the border and intentionally or unintentionally fired provocations on the high seas.
Four Chinese fishing boats were penetrated one after another, with as many as 36 casualties.
India and the Philippines also took the lead in announcing that Chinese fishing boats had continuously crossed the border and violated their sovereignty. They condemned China from a high moral level for deliberate indulgence and hoped that China would give an explanation. China did not respond at all that day. In the evening, Lu Meng led the Mei Family Army to carry out an attack. During the military exercise, ten Philippine and Indian warships were destroyed in one breath. When the warships were in pieces, Zhao Hengcai asked the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to announce two words:
Exploded by mistake!
The Philippines and India, which had suffered heavy losses, were extremely angry. They sued China to the United Nations for deliberately provoking war and demanded sanctions against China. However, China, which had been well prepared, remained unmoved and handed over weapons to the United Nations.During the period, he made a report on the mistake, and at the same time dismissed ten officers to express his apology. After some wrangling, Hua Guo spent three million to erase the matter.
But since then, no one has tested Hua Guo¡¯s attitude.
It was in this year that Du Ziyan, who had overcome the knot in his heart, also gave birth to a son for Zhao Heng, named Zhao Xiong. Compared with Zhao Ye, the lively and active son of Ye Shishi, Zhao Xiong seemed quiet and deep, but for this The old man Zhao Dingtian loved the two children like his darlings. Except for resting and eating, he spent most of his time with them.
Family happiness is the wish of the elderly!
In the third year after Zhao Heng became the president of China, he learned from Katyusha that Temujin and Putalin abandoned mutual speculation and secretly reached an agreement to share common interests. Putalin, who had received life and livelihood protection, announced his abdication. He lived in seclusion in Stalingrad with 300 billion in assets, and his loyalists turned to fully support Temujin to become the new Russian president.
After Temujin came to power, Zhao Heng's chess pieces in Russia were damaged one by one. The forces in Russia that Katyusha had worked so hard to manage were also hunted down by the wolf-like Temujin, who fled like mice and often wanted to kill him. Hiding in the territory of China to avoid the limelight, a Scythe member also told Zhao Heng that Temujin had bodyguards who shouted eighteen times in his ear every day:
"Temujin, are you worthy of being the president of Russia? Do you still remember the shame Zhao Heng gave you?"
Temujin used such hateful words to motivate himself to grow and progress.
"Damn it! Even if you shout eighteen times a day, this idiot is not afraid of making noise to death!"
Although Zhao Heng had long expected that Temujin would become the leader of Russia, he did not expect that he would reach a benefit agreement with Putalin so quickly. It was obvious that Putalin, who was injured continuously, began to be unable to do his job, so he took the initiative to give up his position and become Temujin. It's just that Zhao Heng is not afraid of Temujin's rise to power. Today's Hua Kingdom is no longer a master who will give up after a few shouts.
Taking advantage of the fact that Temujin had just become president and his personal connections were not yet absolutely solid, Zhao Heng began to instigate Western countries to impose sanctions on him. He also recruited a large number of extremely vicious people and secretly opened a hole on the Russian border, hoping that they would go abroad. Expand your horizons and look at the world, go to fertile lands in foreign countries, and let your own light and strength bloom.
Those thieves who recognize the situation and respond to Zhao Heng¡¯s call may become national heroes.
Of course, if there is a huge harvest, part of it should be handed over. This is not only an atonement for previous crimes, but also a reward for the country¡¯s careful cultivation over the years. Zhao Heng¡¯s export of revolutionary methods sent away 8,000 people in three months. There are many fierce bandits, but there is nothing to say about the ignorant or lazy thugs, just kill them all.
Zhao Heng had a reputation for killing countless people, so he encountered almost no resistance in recruiting people. Later, Fatty Qiao roughly calculated that Zhao Heng exported more than 40,000 people to Russia, and their wives and children were taken care of by the country. Zhao Heng also returned Let the gangs with a bad reputation in the country move out of the country. Within half a year, the eight major gangs disappeared from China and moved to Moscow to start their activities.
Temujin is in dire straits because of this!
Zhao Heng secretly stabbed Russia, but openly extended a friendly hand to Temujin, telling him that he had always been sorry for damaging Andu Tang when he was young and ignorant. For this reason, China was willing to assist Russia with a large sum of money. Three hundred mosques and temples were planned to be built in Russia. Temujin believed that Zhao Heng's assistance was a cover-up for a dark activity, and he agreed to Zhao Heng's plan without hesitation.
Years later, when Temujin remembered this incident, he slapped himself twice.
It¡¯s September again, and with the fallen leaves falling, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon.
Zhao Dingtian, who is seventy-five years old, does not seem to know that today is the day of reunion. In other words, with his two beloved grandchildren accompanying him, he feels that every day is the Mid-Autumn Festival, with cars coming and going, people coming in and out, and countless people. Officials visited, but he never came out to meet the guests. He only played in the attic with two juniors, with his children and grandchildren around his knees, making the attic full of laughter.
Zhao Dingtian's behavior began to become sluggish, and the former majesty in his eyes was reduced by two points. His wrinkled smile looked like a dried pomegranate, overflowing with kind brilliance. He reached out and picked up Zhao who was playing with the Three-Character Sutra building blocks. Xiong held him in his arms and said with a smile: "You boy, you have a deep look like mine, and you will definitely do great things in the future."
With a crash, Zhao Ye stood up from a pile of toys: "Grandpa, what about me? What about me? Who do I look like?"
Zhao Dingtian looked around at the messy toys, stretched out his hand to pinch his chin and said with a smile: "With your troublesome personality, you are a complete copy of your father!"
"Then who does my father's personality look like?"
Zhao Ye asked curiously: "Like grandpa?"
Zhao Dingtian was stunned for a moment, then smiled leisurely: "He looks like no one else, he was born to be a demon king!"
?"Grandpa, you are trying to tear me down!"
As soon as the words fell, the wooden door of the attic was pushed open. Zhao Heng, who was getting taller and more mature, led Ye Shishi and Du Ziyan in, with the smile on his face as bright as ever: "Don't you indoctrinate me into the younger generation?" Even if they are wise, powerful, and loved by everyone, they describe me as a demon king, how can I get close to them in the future?"
Ye Shishi and Du Ziyan greeted the old man in unison: "Grandpa!"
"Mother!"
When the old man nodded to the two women, Zhao Ye and Zhao Xiong left Zhao Dingtian and rushed towards Ye Shishi and Du Ziyan with joy on their faces. The two women smiled and greeted the children with Zhang Huai. Zhao Heng looked at the two sons with a depressed look. : "Grandpa, have you seen that they don't take the lead in calling dad now, they only call his mom. There is a gap between father and son. You have to be responsible for this!"
¡°From now on, please promote me more positively in front of them!¡±
Zhao Heng poured a glass of water from the table, put it into Zhao Dingtian's hand and said with a smile: "You have a kind heart and a father's love like a mountain. Say as much as you want!"
When Master Ye and Du Ziyan looked at each other and smiled, Zhao Dingtian snorted: "I will not speak out of conscience. You are a demon king. How can I turn you into a little white rabbit? Zhao Xiong and Zhao Ye don't call you daddy." , because you have too little time to go home, and the number of times we get together is even less. You are like a stranger to them, and you haven't even bought a toy!"
¡°If you want to ease the relationship between father and son, spend more time with them in the future!¡±
Zhao Dingtian hit Zhao Heng: "Otherwise, you can wait until they reach adulthood before calling you daddy!"
¡°Hey, I want to join them too!¡±
A wry smile appeared on Zhao Heng's face, as well as a hint of undisguised guilt. He knelt down and touched the little heads of Zhao Feng and Zhao Ye. Ye Shishi and Du Ziyan gently guided them to call daddy, and the two shouted timidly. , but they refused to get into Zhao Heng¡¯s arms. Zhao Heng didn¡¯t force himself too much. He looked at the gray-haired Zhao Dingtian and smiled bitterly:
¡°It¡¯s just that there have been so many things going on lately, it¡¯s really hard to have some free time.¡±
He looked at the wrinkles and vicissitudes on Zhao Dingtian's face, and the guilt in his heart became stronger: "But don't worry, Grandpa, I will try to get together every Monday in the future!"
Teacher Ye also smiled gently: "Grandpa, it's not that Zhao Heng doesn't want to go home, it's just that he is held back by things!"
Du Ziyan also smiled and echoed: "He just came back from the Black Dragon Camp and went directly back to the Zhao Mansion!"
Zhao Dingtian lowered his head and took a sip of warm water, and then sighed: "Zhao Heng, actually I don't want to put pressure on you, and I don't want you to regard getting together as a task. I just want to tell you that things will never be finished, and it will take a long time." Spending more time with your wife and children will give you greater motivation and allow you to handle things more efficiently!"
Zhao Heng nodded: "Understood!"
"Is everything okay?"
Zhao Dingtian seemed to feel that he was being too demanding: "Can you still handle the internal and external pressure?"
"Grandpa, don't worry, everything is as I expected!"
Zhao Heng walked to the old man and leaned down to massage his knees: "Anti-corruption at home and iron-blooded diplomacy externally. I am following the path you followed. Without the constraints of the four major families and the troubles of the Zhou family, things are progressing smoothly. It went very well. In the past three years, one-fifth of the officials have resigned voluntarily, and more than 700 people have been found lying in the big pit in the suburbs. The achievements are remarkable!"
"I also opened a channel for students from poor families, so that talented and virtuous people can be reused!"
"Nowadays, China's politics is much clearer and officials are much more efficient!"
Ye Shishi smiled and added: "The environment has become more relaxed, and more people are scolding Zhao Heng!"
Zhao Dingtian nodded: "Someone dares to scold Zhao Heng. This is the progress of China!"
Zhao Heng gently rubbed the old man's knees with his fingers, and a wry smile appeared on his face: "Actually, I hope that China's progress is tied to the sound of praise. Being scolded by eight generations of ancestors all day long makes me feel uncomfortable!" Then the topic changed: "There will be no changes in the country for the time being. It will be stable for at least ten years. This year's economic growth will remain at eight points!"
He did not report good news or bad news, and told the old man the situation honestly: "The situation abroad is a bit complicated. The Philippines, India, and Japan are not of concern. The brainwashing of Western countries and the rise of Temujin have made me doubt the future situation of China." I¡¯m a little worried, so now I not only have to consider the current layout, but also focus on the changes ten years from now after I abdicate!¡±
"Brainwashing in Western countries has never stopped. As long as the politics are clear, brainwashing will not be too effective!"
Zhao Dingtian narrowed his eyes slightly: "But Temujin is indeed a disaster!"
When Zhao Heng nodded lightly, Zhao Dingtian said another sentence at the right time: "??I believe you have taken a lot of precautions against this, and I also firmly believe that Temujin did not dare to act rashly when you were in power, but you can do better. You can ask your grandfather about the Qiao family's understanding and penetration of Russia. , far better than you and the Chinese National Security Bureau. "
One word wakes up the dreamer!
"Yes, I should ask grandpa for advice!"
Zhao Heng slapped his thigh: "After the Mid-Autumn Festival, I will go to West China again!"
"Mr. Zhao, Zhao Heng, Mr. Qiao and Ximen Qing's family of five are here!"
At this moment, the big man in golden clothes knocked on the door and walked in with a touch of undisguised joy: "They knew that Zhao Heng had returned to the capital from the Black Dragon Camp, and they were planning to come over to get together. Ximen Qing said that Zhao Heng After becoming the president, I flew all over the world and didn¡¯t see each other for almost half a year, so we took advantage of the Mid-Autumn Festival to have a meal together, and we are almost arriving at the Zhao Mansion!"
Zhao Heng¡¯s face was full of surprise: ¡°Grandpa and Fatty are here?¡±
Da Jinyi smiled and nodded, and then added: "Not only did Minister Xi and Mr. Qiao come to Beijing to get together, Lu Meng also came from Huahai with his wife, daughter and parents. I heard from Minister Xi that there are many Hengmen My children will also return to Beijing today, and Lao Niu and Dongfang Xiong will also come to join in the fun. After the Spring Festival gathering three years ago, it has been a long time since we all drank and ate together!"
¡°So today, while you are free, let¡¯s all come over and get together!¡±
He smiled leisurely: "The news of your return to Beijing was sent out by Xiaoxiao!"
When Du Ziyan and Ye Shishi showed knowing smiles, Zhao Heng suddenly waved his fist: "Great!"
At this time, a horn sounded outside, the kind that kept pressing for a long time. It resounded throughout the alley. Zhao Heng's eyes lit up. He knew in his heart that the person who dared to honk like this in Wangzhe Alley was definitely Grandpa Qiao. Immortal, he pushed Zhao Dingtian's wheelchair and tilted his head towards Du Ziyan and Ye Shishi: "Let's go, take Zhao Ye and Zhao Xiong to the door to meet grandpa!"
The two women laughed in unison: "Okay!"
Outside, five black cars opened their doors one after another, and out came He Qizhu, the old woman in red, and Lin Xiaoli's mother and son. They clustered in the middle of the car with smiles on their faces. When they opened the door, the huge Fatty Qiao struggled out of the car. He came out, then leaned over to pick up Qiao Bushit and put him on the wheelchair. Looking at the King's Alley that had never changed, he shouted at the top of his lungs:
¡°Brother, I¡¯m coming!¡±
PS: The last extra is dedicated to you Mid-Autumn Festival lovers. I wish you all a happy Mid-Autumn Festival and a happy family!
