Chapter 67: Bait and New Quests
With the beginning of the inquiry and investigation in the House of Representatives, under the impetus of well-intentioned people, various scandals of the DPRK prime minister were frantically circulated in the press and public opinion circles, and the prime minister's faltering steps when questioning his position in the parliament were regarded as an ominous symbol that "the current cabinet is weakening, and the prime minister's situation is extremely bad and he is about to go into the wilderness."
Moreover, the fact that "Mr. Prime Minister's poor health" did not discourage his opponents from feeling compassion, but rather became the best motivation for them to go on a fast journey, and the best reason for his remaining loyal subordinates and neutral wait-and-see factions to defect. Politics is not about respecting the old and loving the young, and people prefer to chase the winners and rush to step on the losers.
The Prime Minister himself, however, remained very calm, sitting peacefully in his official residence, ignoring all the gossip outside, and reading official documents as usual, and receiving officials and foreign consuls as if nothing had happened.
He was quietly waiting for the big news to arrive.
It would take a few days for his order to reach the governor at the earliest, and at least a few days for the march to be prepared, and several more days for London to get the news and get the minister to lodge a protest. In other words, this nearly twenty days was already the time for his foreign secretary to perform to his heart's content, and he even had a vague expectation in his heart to see a play that was different from the ones he had already experienced in his life.
"I hope you don't let me down." With a slightly trembling left hand, he picked up a little bit of the snack next to the desk and ate it casually.
The hands of the clock were turning second by second, and his life force was slowly passing away, and he could even feel it. However, even though he knew that he was about to reach the end of his life, he still did not think of voluntarily giving up his position.
He picked up the report that had been submitted to him by the Minister of Police again.
"Hmph, Bonapartist party?" The corners of his mouth couldn't help but show a hint of mockery.
It is ironic that the emperor is dead, and the ministers and generals he relied on and entrusted with important tasks have changed their courts, and the original little man has persevered and become a remnant, continuing to fight for the lost throne of the Bonaparte family.
"Interesting, isn't it?" He looked at the young man in black uniform in front of him. At the age of 30, he is simply young that he can't look at directly.
Kong Ze did not seem at a loss because of the sudden question of Mr. Prime Minister, he calmly asked: "What do you mean?" ”
Although he had waited a long time for the prime minister to speak, he still sat upright in his seat, not moving.
"Very good report." The first believer tapped the table. "I can see you've put a lot of thought into it."
"It's my job."
"To be able to perform their duties well, very few people are able to actually do it." The prime minister gave a flat word of approval, and then raised his head slightly, "Do you know that I am going to call you over today?" ”
"I don't know." Kong Ze replied honestly. "But whatever your instructions, I'm going to do my best."
"As you know, there have been a lot of rumors against me lately." The Prime Minister went straight to the point.
"If you want me to fight these rumors, I can ......," Kong Ze looked at the prime minister.
"No, you don't." The Prime Minister interrupted him, "None of this is important. Moreover, the root of the problem is not here. ”
Kong Ze vaguely understood what the prime minister was referring to, but he still made an expression that was not very clear.
He did not want to be involved in this struggle at the top of the government, and now he was not qualified to participate in this kind of game, he only wanted to do his job well so that any prime minister could use it at ease - the old and the new were the same to him. Therefore, he tried to avoid involving the foreign secretary in such conversations.
"You can be promising, I thought so at the first sight of you." After seeing Kong Ze's expression, the prime minister changed the subject, "Because although your face is stiff like a log, there is a fire burning in your eyes, and you want to burn everything." You're ambitious, just like I was back then. ”
The senior policeman was somewhat surprised by the Prime Minister's sudden compliments - the difference in status between the two of them was a world apart, and he knew that the Prime Minister did not need to praise himself in this way.
"It's a pity that it's hard to have the opportunity to make a penniless pauper jump to the top of France. It took Napoleon six years to go from being a pauper to becoming the supreme consul of France, and I spent more than ten years from being a pauper to a duke and marshal, but what about you? At your age, Napoleon is already the supreme ruler of France, and you must sit respectfully in front of an old man, listen honestly to his nonsense, seek to climb up the institution little by little, and be careful to squeeze away from the colleagues who are jealous of you! It's a bad feeling, isn't it, Mr. Kong Ze? The times can make an outstanding person stand out and climb to the sky, but it can also make an equally outstanding person stay in the mud in silence......"
It seems that he has consumed too much energy after making a big phone call, and the prime minister's face is a little pale.
"Of course I'm not qualified to compare with you......" Kong Ze replied immediately. It's just that secretly, his fists are clenched, clenched very tightly.
"Hum hahahaha" Seeing the other party forcibly hide the resentment in his heart, the prime minister couldn't help laughing. "It's normal for talented people to want to get ahead, what is there to blame? I say this not to laugh at you, but to tell you that I can give you a chance, a chance to climb to the sky......"
Kong Ze's eyes widened slightly, and he did not escape the prime minister's eagle-sharp gaze.
"How?"
Sweat slowly leaked from his back, until Zuihou, Kong Ze made up his mind. "My duty is to carry out your orders......" he said word for word.
"Good." A smile spread across the Prime Minister's face.
Then he pulled out a piece of paper from beside him. "In response to the current complex situation, your Minister and I have decided to set up a special investigation unit within the Ministry of Police. I have signed your letter of appointment for promotion, and in recognition of your continued hard work and merit, you deserve it. ”
"Xiexie you!" Kong Ze's voice trembled.
He fought for more than a decade to become a small section chief, and after winning the favor of the minister and the prime minister, it took him only two months to rise two ranks, and he was expected to become a new commissioner, about to be ranked among the dozens of the most powerful of the tens of thousands of police officers in France, if he had to be at the bottom. All this is just a matter of these two people saying a few words and signing a few words. Power, what an intoxicating thing you are!
However, even in the face of such great joy, Kong Ze still retained a trace of sobriety in his mind. He knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch, especially for an orphan with no roots. Since others have given him such a big gift, I am afraid that he will need to pay more.
"In a month's time, this letter of appointment will be issued, and you will be one step closer to your goal."
Sure enough, a month later.
"So, what are my main responsibilities and tasks during the month? I need to know about it first so that I can pre-set it up. He asked calmly.
Now that the other party has given out the finish prize, you need to run the other person's scheduled journey - and you need to finish it well, so that you can't be left behind along the way.
The Prime Minister nodded slightly, and he was pleased with the young man's calm performance.
"Now you need to put aside the Bonapartians and other demons for the time being, and have more important tasks to do, of course, in secret."
"...... do you mean?" Kong Ze seemed to understand something.
"Yes, keep an eye on Kizo for me, and take your people to find out as soon as possible who he is courting and who he is dealing with. If you can, find out what he's going to do next. The Prime Minister instructed softly, "Remember, it must be done in secret, without anyone noticing, and quickly!" Since you have been able to do it to the traitors before, I believe you can do it to Mr. Guizo as well. Am I thinking wrong? ”
The prime minister stared at the young man opposite, "Tell me, am I thinking wrong?" ”
It's never his style to sit back and wait, it's always his style to take the initiative. 20 days on the battlefield to fight a battle that will determine the fate of the country, and it is enough to turn the world upside down in the political world, he must know everything so that there are no accidents.
"I have many men, many of whom I can trust even more than you. But this kind of work requires people with special talents to do it well, and I lack expertise in this area, and after this period of observation, I believe that you have this ability. ”
Kong Ze's breathing was much heavier, and the prime minister waited for his consideration.
He knew that ambitious people would struggle with such temptations, even if they were fraught with risks.
Sure enough, as he expected, after a short period of consideration, Kong Ze stood up from his seat, put his legs together, and straightened his waist.
"I will do my best to complete the tasks assigned by you, and I will never disappoint your expectations and promotions."
"I knew that a young man like you would not be resigned to the ordinary." The Prime Minister nodded slightly, then tapped the table slightly, "However, I still have to remind you once again that this task must be kept absolutely secret, and what will happen if the political community knows about it?" You yourself can think of the consequences. ”
"I totally understand that." Kong Ze's expression was still the same as before. "I'm going to make sure that never happens."
"Then you go back, and from now on, you can carry out this work. Even your minister doesn't have to reveal a word, this task belongs directly to me, understand? The Prime Minister's voice froze.
"Understood!"
"Alright, you can go back." The prime minister waved his hand and signaled that the other party could retire.
After Kong Ze left, the prime minister sat down in his chair tiredly, and then gently rubbed his eyes.
He wasn't worried that the other party would know too much about it, because once he had successfully completed his goal, he would throw the young man out like an outcast.
