Compared to Yan Ai, Huang Shangzong was obviously more unfamiliar with Qiu Tu.

So when Yan Ai said that he wanted to block Qiu Tu's progress, his first reaction was confusion.

After all, the gap between him and Qiu Tu is like the bright moon in the sky and the fireflies on the ground.

A small deputy minister of the Political Department really cannot catch his eye and is not worthy of his targeting.

Otherwise, he would not have just sent a counselor around him to deal with it after suspecting that Qiu Tu was involved in the killing of Jia Shu.

Therefore, he asked hesitantly, "Does a small deputy minister of the Political Department deserve such attention?"

After hearing Huang Shangzong's words, Yan Ai's cloudy eyes became darker.

He forced a smile and then explained, "Mr. Huang, you may underestimate this little person."

"I need to remind you that although Qiu Tu is only a deputy minister now, a year ago he was just a common man living at the lowest level in the disaster area."

"Two months ago, he was just a Level 2 agent."

"In two months, he was promoted to first-level agent, deputy section, principal section, and deputy division."

"And now, he is seeking to become the minister of the Political Department. Once he succeeds, he will completely open up the path to promotion. He will soar into the sky."

After introducing Qiu Tu's situation, Yan Ai said in a deep tone,

"Besides, he is indeed cunning, cunning and cruel."

"First, one of my maids was secretly killed by him, then Jia Shu, who was against him, was framed and killed, and finally even Wu Zhi, who was sent by you, was mysteriously assassinated."

"One thing is a coincidence, but the probability that everything is a coincidence is too small."

"Although there are no clues pointing to him as the murderer behind the scenes, this further proves the subtlety and proficiency of his methods and the clean and neat ending."

Speaking of this, Yan Ai paused for a moment, and then said, "Such a cunning, cunning, ruthless person. After being promoted to a higher level, the damage caused will only be greater."

"So, all this is not for selfishness, but for justice."

Yan Ai is obviously very familiar with Huang Shangzong and understands Huang Shangzong's character very well.

Therefore, after what he said, Huang Shangzong on the other end of the phone immediately began to seriously consider Qiu Tu's matter.

Perhaps aware of Huang Shangzong's wavering mood, Yan Ai said slowly, "Moreover, Huang Lao. Qiu Tu's promotion does not meet the standards."

"He was promoted too quickly during this period. According to convention, he should not be promoted again."

"Moreover, all officials above the director level need to go to the shelter for further training. He has never done any further training and does not meet the regulations."

Yan Ai clearly said that Qiu Tu did not meet the requirements, but in fact he was sending cannonballs to Huang Shangzong. He told Huang Shangzong the weakness of Qiu Tu's promotion.

Therefore, after listening to Yan Ai's words, Huang Shangzong thought about it for a while, and then said carefully, "In that case, I will mention it when I study the personnel arrangements of the New Territories City Investigation Department."

After saying that, he seemed to have remembered something and asked, "By the way, has he joined the "Iron-Blooded Faction"?"

"Otherwise, why would the military plan involve him?"

Hearing Huang Shangzong's words, Yan Ai took a deep breath of cigarette, then he squinted his old eyes and thought for a moment, and then said, "Probably not."

"He just seems to have some relationship with Dai Yukang. But it shouldn't be to the extent of joining the Iron-Blooded Faction."

Speaking of this, Yan Ai added, "This person is very good at managing relationships. Not only Dai Yukang, but also Jiang Zhenpeng and Tang Feifei of the Tang family are all closely related to him."

"In addition, Liu Xiongyuan has collaborated with him before."

"It can be said that he is a good dancer with long sleeves."

After Wu Zhi was killed, Huang Shangzong obviously did not get the relevant information about Qiu Tu, so now he heard Yan Ai say this.

He also suddenly understood what was so special about Qiu Tu.

This time, he made a serious comment, "If a person has evil intentions, the stronger his ability, the more destructive he will be."

Yan Ai blew out a puff of smoke, pressed the cigarette butt into the ashtray, then nodded and said, "That's exactly it."

Yan Ai said, "So, before he has fully developed, we still have to kill him."

Huang Shangzong said "hmm" and then asked, "How is his relationship with Jiang Zhenpeng, Liu Xiongyuan and Tang Feifei?"

"Will these factions help him when the time comes?"

Yan Ai thought again for two seconds before saying, "He is kind to Liu Xiongyuan, and the person most likely to help him is Liu Xiongyuan."

"But Liu Xiongyuan's retreat was very sudden. There should be no time or advance to help him contact the top leaders of the "Reformation Sect."

"It can only be said that Jiang Zhenpeng has a good relationship with him, but not to the extent that he can use or introduce his network resources."

"The only variable is Tang Feifei."

"The Tang family is now at its peak, with influence across the three realms of military, government and business. It also has deep connections in the Investigation Bureau. It is also the current head of the "Fengtian Clan"."

"But because of this, the competition within the Tang family is also very fierce. As the daughter of the eldest son of the Tang family, although Tang Feifei is very favored by Mr. Tang, she also faces cruel competition."

"Besides, as the daughter of the Tang family, her marriage can only be a political marriage. Qiu Tu, as her concubine, cannot be on the stage."

"That woman is very shrewd and calm. She will not let other competitors fall into the trap at such a critical moment."

Hearing Yan Ai's words, Huang Shangzong said "hmm" and then said, "Okay, then I will make arrangements tomorrow."

Finally getting Huang Shangzong's promise, Yan Ai couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face.

It wasn't that he wanted to target Qiu Tu. The main reason was that Qiu Tu was developing too fast, to the point where he was a little frightened just looking at it today.

Moreover, a city's Political Department Minister, Huang Shangzong, the state speaker, may not care. But Yan Ai, the director of the city's Investigation Department, does.

You know, the Minister of Political Affairs is already one of the highest levels of the Exploration Agency and can enter high-level meetings.

Moreover, among the nine senior officials, the director of the Political Department is ranked just below several directors, and can be said to be the first director.

In addition, the Political Department controls the intelligence system of the Investigation Agency. Once controlled by Qiu Tu, Yan Ai will become blind and deaf.

This is the reason why Yan Ai has been persuading Huang Shangzong to check Qiu Tu today.

But now, after receiving Huang Shangzong's promise, Yan Ai finally felt relieved.

But he did not place all his hopes on Huang Shangzong.

He lit a cigarette again and thought quietly for a while, then picked up the landline on the table and called the shelter again.

Huang Shangzong's position was too high, so he might not be too concerned about this matter. So he planned to find a few more "academic" friends in the Organization Department of the "Exploration General Administration" to give some advice and hints.

For example, the director of the Organization Department of the "Exploration General Administration" who is in charge of all appointments at the director level of the planning area.

at the same time.

When Yan Ai tried every means to prevent Qiu Tu from becoming the Minister of Political Department.

Qiu Tu also drove to Tang Feifei's villa.

Because Tang Feifei was already a high-ranking official in the Investigation Agency, Tang Feifei's two layers of guards didn't even dare to check Qiu Tu's car, so they saluted and let her go.

After getting out of the car, Qiu Tu opened the door in a familiar manner.

The maid in the room bowed to Qiu Tu, and then said, "The director is on the phone and asked you to wait in the living room."

Hearing this, Qiu Tu nodded and walked into the living room.

After waiting for two or three minutes, Tang Feifei came over holding a communicator and chatting with a cold face.

When she walked to the living room, the communication was hung up. She took off the communication device and put it on the bar.

After that, her wheat-colored face looked at Qiu Tu expressionlessly and asked, "Is there something wrong with coming to me so late?"

Qiu Tu was keenly aware of Tang Feifei's slightly cold mood tonight.

So he didn't talk about his own affairs immediately, but asked tentatively, "Are you in a bad mood?"

After hearing this, Tang Feifei rubbed her temples, then picked up the cup and took a glass of water. While drinking, she said, "It's okay. I just have some troubles at home."

Qiu Tu asked, "How can I help?"

Tang Feifei glanced at him and said nothing. But the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Qiu Tu was thick-skinned, but he didn't care.

Tang Feifei drank the water in the cup and then asked, "Don't talk about me anymore. Let's talk about you."

"You always don't go to the Three Treasures Palace when you have nothing to do. If you come to me so late, you must have something to do, right?"

Although Qiu Tu knew that now was not the right opportunity, he came even though he came, and Tang Feifei kept asking questions, so he couldn't hide it.

Therefore, he could only look at Tang Feifei and said with a serious face, "There is indeed something wrong."

"I want to be the Minister of Political Affairs."

Hearing Qiu Tu's words, Tang Feifei chuckled, "I still want to be the head of the Tang family."

Qiu Tu looked at her and said seriously, "I'm not joking. And I really have a chance."

After finishing speaking, Qiu Tu simply told the story of how he cooperated with the military to jointly launch the "Boundless Heart Sea Development Project".

At the end, Qiu Tu said a little awkwardly, "Actually, I didn't want to trouble you."

"But isn't Liu Xiongyuan in seclusion now? My connection with the "reformists" is broken, and they can't help me, so I can only ask you to come here."

Tang Feifei didn't know whether she took some medicine tonight or was in a really bad mood.
