“It’s not just you, no one expected that Wang Wengao would be the king!” Ji Zhenhua couldn’t help but lament as well.
In fact, Ji Zhenhua had always heard something about the investigation of the dynasty, especially when it involved some families in Yanjing, it was even more attention-grabbing.
Whether it was the military or special departments, all were being investigated.
But no one would have thought, no matter what, that the king who was giving them headaches would be a big-name wimp!
“Wang Wengao hides very deeply! People, in their decades-long disguise, have gotten used to wearing a mask, and after a long time, they can’t take it off.” Ji Zhenhua said.
“Hmm. I’m afraid that even in ordinary life, Wang Wengao has completely hidden under the identity of the Qiao family’s son-in-law and hasn’t broken the slightest bit, because either of his two identities are real.” Ji Feng said. In fact, there was one more thing he didn’t say, this princely identity of Wang Wengao was surprisingly unknown even to his wife, Qiao Rong.
Since Qiao Rong had been caught, she had been interrogated for an unknown number of times, and the interrogation methods had been used for an unknown number of times, and any bit of information she knew had been truthfully explained, and under some interrogation methods, even an iron man could not hold out.
However, from what Qiao Rong had explained, it was surprising that she had no idea that Wang Wengao was the king, and that was what was so appalling.
As someone who had shared a bed with Wang Wengao for decades, it was surprising that she didn’t even know Wang Wengao’s true identity!
“I heard that apart from Wang Wengao, the dynasty actually has another person in charge in China?” Ji Zhenhua asked, “Is there anyone you suspect in your mind?”
“No.”
Ji Feng shook his head and said, “In fact, what I know now is similar to what the above knows, and the results of the analysis are those, but there are really quite a few people who meet those conditions, and it’s hard to tell who it really is.”
According to Wang Wengao’s account, and the analysis they had made, this number one met several conditions.
First, first of all, this person was still above Wang Wengao in the dynasty, or at the very least of equal rank, but had more power in his hands than Wang Wengao. The reason is that Wang Wengao is mainly responsible for the dynasty’s force in China, the economy is only incidental. No. 1, on the other hand, was in charge of the overall situation.
Based on this analysis, this person must also have a higher status and greater influence in China than Wang Wengao, which would enable him to have resources, ability and sufficient influence.
This is the condition of status and identity.
Secondly.
Since this person manages the king, this number one will definitely have interactions with Wang Wengao through some means.
This is the condition of convenience.
Only if these two conditions were met would it be possible to be number one.
But the problem was that there were simply too many people who met these two conditions, which could only mean that Wang Wengao hid himself too well, being the son-in-law of the Qiao family, even the juniors of the Qiao family despised him, and anyone who thought that Wang Wengao was borrowing the power of the Qiao family to be able to be a small leader in a state enterprise unit on the one hand, in addition to doing some small business in private.
Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, although Wang Wengao’s life was quite prosperous, in reality, he had no status at all in the family, and there were definitely not many people who could look at him seriously.
As a result, there are so many people with higher status than him, and I’m afraid that all the rich and powerful people in Yanjing have more influence than him.
It would be impossible to tell who No. 1 really was, or even, even which range No. 1 belonged to.
If that No. 1 does not make a mistake and does not actively reveal a breach, in Ji Feng’s opinion the only direction of investigation now is, I’m afraid, someone who has crossed paths with Wang Wengao, even if it’s anyone who has crossed paths anywhere ……
“It’s an eventful time right now!”
Ji Zhenhua said, “The dynasty’s activities are becoming more and more rampant, although there was a focused crackdown two years ago and there has been no let-up in vigilance, but in the last year or so, the dynasty’s people’s activities in China have been on the rise again. In addition to that, some people are also active, and several families have undergone various changes one after another, especially the Wu family ……”
When he said this, Ji Zhenhua paused and stopped the topic, “You are at the forefront of the storm on island number one, so you must be cautious and pay more attention to your own safety, as long as people are still around, there is room for manoeuvre.”
Ji Feng nodded: “Dad, I understand.”
Ji Zhenhua said, “Now that there is a military standoff in the southern waters, the nerves of each other are tense, but the more this time comes, the more calm and composed you must be. Don’t be taken advantage of, let alone act rashly.”
Ji Feng listened carefully, his father must have thought long and hard about all these words before telling him.
“Dad, on the Wu family’s side, has there been any movement recently?” Ji Feng suddenly asked. When Ji Zhenhua spoke about the Wu family just now, he immediately stopped talking about it. Ji Feng knew that his father was unwilling to discuss these rights and wrongs behind his back, but he was eager to know about the movement of the Wu family.
“There is definitely movement, but as long as you do your own thing, don’t worry about anything else.” Ji Zhenhua said.
“Mm.”
Ji Feng nodded his head.
A while ago, the Wu family was quite turbulent, Wu Zhengmin retired to the second line and later died in the hospital after falling ill, Wu Zhiyong had somehow committed a crime and disappeared, and Wu Zhengxiang, the second oldest member of the Wu family, took the throne and was said to be vigorously integrating the Wu family.
This is definitely not a small movement, and several major families in Yanjing have been rattled.
Sometimes Ji Feng also felt saddened by the fact that Wu Zhiyong was so prosperous at first, and what lay before him was destined to be a golden path, yet he did not expect that after only a few years, Wu Zhiyong would be nowhere to be found.
Instead, Wu Zhengxiang had become the head of the Wu family.
The vagaries of life were truly unexpected.
“Hmm?”
Thinking about this, Ji Feng suddenly frowned, as if he had caught a little something, but when he thought about it carefully, there was nothing.
Ji Zhenhua noticed the change in his son’s expression and asked, “What did you think of?”
Ji Feng shook his head, “It’s that I thought of something, but it’s still hard to say right now.”
Ji Zhenhua didn’t ask more questions and said, “Go out and keep your mother company, it’s been a long time since she came back, how many times has she been chattering in my ears.”
“Mm.”
……
The day after he came to Yanjing, Ji Feng took Bai Zhu and Yang Bin straight to a compound of the army.
After registering and meeting Jiefang Xiang without any problems, Ji Feng said politely, “Chief Xiang, I’ve come to see you again for help.”
“You kid really has nothing to do.”
Xiang Jiefang smiled and joked, “It’s about the nuclear material, right?”
Ji Feng nodded, “This is one aspect, there are some other materials that also need your help.”
“Oh? There are other materials?” Xiang Jiefang was a little surprised, “What kind of materials are they?”
“Here’s the list!”
Ji Feng immediately took out a piece of printed paper from his pocket and handed it over.
After taking it and looking at it, Xiang Jiefang couldn’t help but say, “Ho! Your appetite is not small, these are all special materials, even if they are used within the army, they have to be specially approved, what do you need these materials for?”
Ji Feng laughed: “A bit of special use, not easy to say for now.”
He had thought that it would take some talking, but as a result, Xiang Jiefang nodded his head very quickly and agreed: “Alright, I won’t ask much about what you want to use it for, I only have one request, these materials, not even a single gram of them can be allowed to flow outside.”
“No problem!”
Ji Feng immediately said, “I may not even have enough of these materials for my own use, where can I get any extra to flow outside!”
“That’s good.”
Xiang Jiefang nodded: “Then how about this, this batch of materials, let’s count it directly into the material supply for the laser guns, you send a letter back, I’ll approve this side!”
Ji Feng was instantly delighted, “Then thank you, Chief Xiang!”
Xiang Jiefang waved his hand: “Originally, the country should thank you, but I won’t talk too much about these false heads.
Ji Feng smiled.
He didn’t stay for too long in Xiang Jiefang’s office, so Ji Feng offered his farewell. In fact, what he wanted to ask most was about the situation in the southern sea, but he knew that about these situations, they were actually cla*sified, so he didn’t ask more.
After leaving the military compound, Ji Feng said, “Bai Zhu, I’ll drive, let’s go to a place.”
Bai Zhu froze for a moment and nodded.
The place Ji Feng went to was a relatively not too busy street, and he was standing at the moment at the fork between the street and an alleyway.
“Sir, what are we doing here?” Yang Bin asked somewhat strangely.
Ever since he arrived here, Ji Feng had been standing at the mouth of this hutong, motionless, for more than ten minutes. This made Yang Bin feel very strange.
Ji Feng didn’t answer him, he just looked back and forth, looking at the traffic on the street one moment, and then back at the mouth of the hutong the next.
Yang Bin still wanted to speak, but was stopped by Bai Zhu with a look.
After a full twenty minutes or so, Ji Feng nodded slowly, “It’s here all right, just, what’s the name of this place?”
Hearing him talking to himself, Yang Bin secretly wondered, but he could also see that Ji Feng was thinking, so he didn’t dare to ask more questions.
In fact, at this moment, Ji Feng’s mind was racing, and his mind was constantly recalling.
He had come here because of a conversation he had with his father last night. When Wang Wengao was mentioned, he suddenly thought of something, and he realised that he might have actually overlooked something at first.
When he thought about it, when he had caught Wang Wengao, he and Xiang Yongzhan had been so preoccupied with what they could do to pry Wang Wengao’s mouth open and track down the dynasty’s secrets because time was tight. But it was this urgency that made him overlook some things, and later, with Wang Wengao’s death, he even overlooked them completely.
But when he spoke of Wang Wengao last night, something suddenly occurred to him.
Once, he had seen Wang Wengao here!
Right at the entrance to this hutong!
And most importantly, at the same time he saw Wang Wengao, he also saw a man in the distance!
