The country entrusted me to buy an aircraft carrier, Hou Liangping, do you dare to investigate?

Sha Ruijin stood there holding the phone, remaining silent for a long time.

He already knew from Huang Feipeng's older sister that Huang Feipeng was about to take up his post at the Beijing Science and Technology Bureau.

Although it was somewhat against procedure, Huang Feipeng made such great contributions to the country that it was reasonable for him to become the director of the Science and Technology Bureau.

As Sha Ruijin thought about this, his mind began to stir.

When he first came to Handong, he knew that his mission was not only to fight corruption, but also to protect Huang Feipeng. Now Huang Feipeng has gone back.

This means that he has already completed most of his mission.

Once things are settled in Handong, does that mean he can be promoted a bit?

This promotion is very likely to be to the capital.

This made Sha Ruijin's heart pound violently.

Although he wielded great power outside, he knew that the officials in the capital were the true center of power.

However, before he could even enjoy his happiness for long, he learned about the anti-corruption bureau's activities.

His first thought was that it was all over, that his path to promotion was over.

Right under his nose, Huang Feipeng, who was about to become an academician, was arrested.

This was the first time he had ever encountered something so embarrassing.

Therefore, he lost his temper at the provincial party committee meeting, which was unusual for him.

The purpose was to allow the police to rescue Huang Feipeng as quickly as possible.

Qi Tongwei is a smart man and also one of Huang Feipeng's men, so he will definitely do his best to rescue Huang Feipeng as soon as possible.

The downfall of the Ji family also meant that Zhong Xiaoai would have to leave Handong, and in the time before Huang Feipeng returned, no one would dare to cause him any trouble.

Just as Sha Ruijin came to his senses and was about to say something, Han Li's tone on the other end of the phone became dejected.

"Secretary Sha, although the Ji family's power in Hanxi has collapsed, this matter probably won't go in the direction we want."

Upon hearing this, Sha Ruijin frowned slightly, wondering if something else had gone wrong.

"Tell me, what is it now?"

Han Li lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, slowly exhaled a smoke ring, and said quietly.

"Lu Xun just received a call from the capital. The caller was a young man who said his surname was Zhao, but we are not qualified to know his specific name."

"That young master Zhao said directly that he and Zhong Xiaoai of the Zhong family are close friends, so the friends of the Zhong family are his friends as well."

"They demanded that we release Ji Yong immediately, or they would make us regret it."

Upon hearing this, Sha Ruijin frowned. The Zhao family?

In the capital, there is one top-tier power with the surname Zhao. If it is that family, then this matter is a bit tricky.

After all, the old man from the Zhao family was a high-ranking official, which was not something that ordinary people could easily obtain; there were only about a hundred such people in the entire Great Xia Dynasty.

However, the patriarch of the Zhao family has always been most intolerant of such things. Perhaps it is the younger generation of the Zhao family who have started to do evil by taking advantage of their family's power.

Moreover, even if that's not the case, he's not afraid, after all, Huang Dinghai is now a General of the Army and has made numerous contributions in recent years.

Huang Dingbo's political future is also bright.

Several other younger members of the Huang family are also doing well in both the military and political spheres.

Even the only son of the Huang family made great sacrifices for that matter, and made great contributions during this period.

Therefore, the Huang family is not inferior to any other family.

Thinking of this, Sha Ruijin chuckled softly.

"What, you're scared by just a junior member of a family?"

Han Li sighed softly upon hearing this.

“Secretary Sha, that’s not all. Just as Lu Xun hung up the phone, he received a call from his teacher, who told him to hold firm and deal with whoever comes seriously.”

"Secretary Sha, you say, this..."

Sha Ruijin understood Han Li's concerns, which were simply that he was afraid of offending people and being abandoned as a pawn.

So he said with a smile.

"Don't worry, since he said so, then do it."

"Now, you need to end all of this as quickly as possible, understand?"

When Sha Ruijin heard Duan Yidu call and say this, a huge weight was lifted from his heart.

Duan Yi's statement is also Huang Dingbo's statement.

It's stable this time.

After hanging up the phone, Han Li felt much more at ease.

After sitting down again and quietly smoking a cigarette, Han Li finally sat up and called Lu Xun to discuss how to handle the matter.

The two discussed it for a long time and finally decided on the procedures.

People from the procuratorate and the court were also called in, and interrogations began overnight.

……

imperial capital.

Duan Yi returned home and slowly began to unpack his things, make hot water and tea, checked the time, and then nodded silently.

A short while later, a series of hurried footsteps approached.

Upon hearing the footsteps, Duan Yi smiled to himself and continued reading the book in his hands.

A moment later, there was a knock on the door.

Duan Yi straightened his clothes, then stood up with a smile.

"Who?"

Duan Yi opened the door and looked towards the entrance; sure enough, it was Ji Yueming.

Ji Yueming was no longer smiling as usual; instead, she looked at Duan Yi with a gloomy expression.

"Old Duan, that's a bit unfair of you."

Upon hearing this, Duan Yi smiled and shook his head.

"Come in, what do you want to say?"

Duan Yi knew that as soon as the Ji family fell, Ji Yueming would think of him first.

After all, everyone knows about the relationship between Duan Yi and Lu Xun.

Without his own instructions, the Land Cruiser would never have done such a thing.

Ji Yueming looked at the other person's smiling face, then snorted coldly and followed them inside.

He scoffed when he saw the tea set on the coffee table.

"It seems, Lao Lu, you had already anticipated my arrival."

"Old Lu, what are you doing this for? Tell me."

"Are you going to completely break ties with me?"

Ji Yueming had no choice but to ask directly, because the Ji family's actions this time were too great; everyone in the Hanxi officialdom had been arrested.

This means they raided the Ji family's ancestral home.

How could he not be furious?

If this matter is not handled well, what will his subordinates think?

If they can't even protect their own family, then they can't possibly protect others.

Duan Yi smiled and shook his head upon hearing this.

"Come on, Lao Ji, don't be in such a hurry. Come, sit down and have some tea."

"Let's take things slowly."

"Actually, this matter is quite simple."

"All you need to do is bring Zhong Xiaoai back."

Upon hearing this, Ji Yueming immediately understood and looked at Duan Yi with a conflicted expression.

"You've done all this just to get me to transfer Zhong Xiaoai back?"
