Chapter 677: It’s hard to walk alone
Zhu Tianyuan's body shook, as if a basin of cold water was poured over his head. His aura instantly weakened and he slowly closed his eyes.
After a moment, he sighed deeply, full of regret and exhaustion. "Mr. Qin, I was impulsive just now and lost control of my emotions. I'm sorry for offending you. I hope you don't take it to heart."
Qin Zhengming stopped being arrogant after seeing Zhu Tianyuan apologize. After all, he would be an official in Shenzhen City in the future. If he offended the Zhu family too much, it would be difficult for him to get things done in the future.
Even if someone doesn't openly oppose you, they just need to trip you up a little bit in secret to make things difficult for you.
"Master Zhu, don't say that. I know you've just experienced such a major change and your emotions are unstable, but if you are willing to trust me, I will definitely give you an answer, but the premise is that you must stabilize Shencheng."
Qin Zhengming looked at Zhu Tianyuan seriously, his tone firm and powerful.
"Okay, Mr. Qin, I'm willing to believe you. From now on, the Zhu family will take back all their power and stabilize Shencheng."
Zhu Tianyuan nodded slowly. The Zhu family had tried their best to investigate but to no avail. He didn't believe that Qin Zhengming could find the mastermind behind the incident.
But now that things have come to this, he can only choose to believe the other party.
After all, as the other party said, if this matter alarmed the bigwigs in the imperial capital, then even if the Zhu family was powerful, they would be in trouble.
After convincing the other party, Qin Zhengming did not delay too much and went straight to the hospital.
As the top leader of Shenzhen City, he has to deal with a lot of government affairs every day, and it is not easy for him to squeeze out this little time.
After Qin Zhengming left, Zhu Tianyuan made several phone calls, all to members of the Zhu family, asking them to restrain their forces and not to cause further trouble in Shenzhen.
Of course, even though he was concentrating his power, he did not give up on tracking down the murderer who poisoned his two sons.
It's just that the investigation has changed from a high-profile one to a secret one.
Lu Feng had no idea about all this. Although he had a thorn like Jiang Wenqin in Shenzhen City, his rank was too low and he had no access to such information.
After leaving the hospital, Qin Zhengming returned to the office building and recalled the scene in the hospital.
A rage that he couldn't suppress rose in his heart.
"Damn it! The Zhu family looks down on me because they see I have no support or influence!"
Sitting on the sofa, Qin Zhengming slammed the coffee table hard.
That’s right, as the top leader of Shenzhen City, he has no big power behind him and no backers. He can get to this point entirely relying on hard work and luck.
Unlike others, he has always fought alone.
But this also led to the fact that he actually had no confidants or trustworthy subordinates around him.
If you stand alone, you will be looked down upon by others.
If what happened today happened to Su Tiancheng or Li Zhengguo, Zhu Tianyuan would not dare to say such words.
"Alas, it's as difficult as climbing to the sky for one person to accomplish something. Am I, Qin Zhengming, going to follow the same path as those people and become corrupt?"
Looking at the banner hanging on the wall, Qin Zhengming asked a question.
This banner has been with him for more than ten years. It was given to him by the people of the entire city when he was the top leader of a city in Sichuan Province.
It was precisely because of this banner that he was able to rise all the way to his current position as the top leader in Shenzhen over the course of more than a decade.
On this banner, there are only four words written: "Long Live the People"
This is the highest evaluation of him by the people of that city.
Because he truly put the people first.
When the city suffered an earthquake that year, he rushed to the scene in person and followed the rescue team to rescue the people one shovel at a time.
In five days, he broke three shovels, wore out four pairs of boots and more than twenty pairs of gloves.
During these five days, he slept less than fifteen hours and personally rescued forty-two people.
Therefore, he is also known as the true public servant of the people.
In the following time, until now, he has been struggling for these four words.
But now, his heart was shaken.
After hesitating for a long time, he called the second-in-command of Shenzhen City - Zhang Zhengju, who was also his only trustworthy comrade-in-arms in Shenzhen City.
As for people like the third in command and the top regional leader, he doesn't trust any of them.
Soon, Zhang Zhengju, who received the notice, came to Qin Zhengming's office.
"Zhengming, why did you call me here so hastily? I'm very busy right now. This guy Zhu Tianyang is really pissing me off."
As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Zhengju started complaining wildly.
The Zhu Tianyang he mentioned was obviously from the Zhu family, and was now the third in command in Shenzhen City.
Qin Zhengming looked at Zhang Zhengju and said slowly, "I have already dealt with Zhu Tianyuan. He will curb the power of the Zhu family, and peace will be restored to Shencheng for the time being."
Zhang Zhengju heaved a sigh of relief when he heard this. "That's great! The Zhu family has been causing panic in Shenzhen these past few days. I can finally breathe a sigh of relief."
Qin Zhengming's face was solemn. "But the matter is not over yet. The young master of the Zhu family has unfortunately passed away. I hope you will be responsible for investigating the case of the two young masters of the Zhu family being poisoned. You must find the real culprit behind this."
Zhang Zhengju was shocked when he heard the news of the Zhu family's young master's death. A trace of surprise and solemnity appeared on his face, but he quickly said with a firm look, "Don't worry, I will do my best to get to the bottom of this matter."
Qin Zhengming frowned slightly, his eyes revealing a trace of fatigue and helplessness. He sighed softly: "It's really difficult to fight alone. Is there any hope for us if we persist to the end?"
When Zhang Zhengju heard this, he immediately felt the same way and nodded with a wry smile:
"That's right. Although I'm the second-in-command, I often have to act according to Zhu Tianyang's mood. If I'm not careful, I'll be hindered. I want to do something practical, but there are always many obstacles. In this officialdom, it's too difficult to stick to your original intention."
Qin Zhengming didn't respond, but his face was gloomy.
......
Magic City.
Morning Light Entertainment Company.
Su Luoxuan and Long Qichao were reporting to Lu Feng on their plans for the Hangzhou Entertainment Festival.
It took about ten minutes to finish the talk.
"The plan is great, go for it. I only have one request for you, and that is to make a splash at this entertainment festival!"
"Yes, please rest assured, Mr. Lu, we will complete the task!"
Su Luoxuan and Long Qichao said this with great determination.
Since the opening ceremony of the entertainment festival is the day after tomorrow, Chenxi Entertainment, as one of the top ten entertainment companies, must arrive early.
So Su Luoxuan gathered the company's stars early and made preparations in Shanghai.
Prepare to go to Hangzhou tonight.
In response to this, Lu Feng waved his hand and directly transferred the private plane to Su Luoxuan so that he could depart easily.
