Chapter 1483 Things have changed!

After hearing what I said, Zheng Rong's expression froze immediately, but then he laughed flatteringly.

"Director Zhang, you see, I've only been in office for a short time. You know what kind of person Mr. Zhang is. It's impossible for him to trust me as much as he trusts Lu You. Otherwise...can you give me a little more time?"

"Oh?" Hearing that, my eyes immediately turned cold. I put down my teacup, looked at him coldly, and said, "Zheng Rong, when I supported you to take the position of director of the action team, do you remember what you said to me?"

"I, of course I remember." Zheng Rong swallowed his saliva with a gulp, "But I have been in office for too short a time. Director Zhang, it's not that I don't do anything, nor that I don't want to do things for you, it's really..."

He hasn't finished his sentence, and Mr. Wu on the side suddenly took over the conversation, sneered and said, "It's really...are you afraid of Zhang Wudi's revenge?"

"Ah..." Zheng Rong was speechless after being directly retorted by Mr. Wu.

In fact, both I and Mr. Wu understand Zheng Rong's thoughts. He doesn't want to get involved too early.

Zhang Wudi has been in the Wushu Mountain reserve for too long and has a deep foundation. As a small character, Zheng Rong naturally knows that if he gets involved in this power struggle, he may end up in pieces if he is not careful.

But...

it's too late to be afraid now.

The moment he took the position of the director of the action team, he should have known what kind of road he would face next!

"Zheng Rong, if you still want to please both sides, then I can tell you with certainty that you will only die a more miserable death!" Wu Sheng spoke, his voice cold: "You have been involved in this vortex of power. Do you want to protect yourself? It's difficult for you. In this vortex of power, if you don't have a big enough tree to rely on, then you can't please both sides. Under the pressure from both sides, think about it yourself, what is the probability of you getting out of it unscathed?"

Wu Sheng's words were a warning, of course, not a warning.

This power struggle, from the moment I was assassinated in the imperial capital, was destined to end in a bad way. In the end, it must be a battle.

Although Zheng Rong is the director of the Wu Shushan Reserve Action Team, he is just a small figure in this power struggle.

However, the position he sits in is extremely important. It is the only department of the Wu Shushan Reserve that has the power to launch military operations besides the Military Affairs Department. Such a department is like Jingzhou, a battleground for military strategists during the Three Kingdoms period!

Whoever can get this department can get this armed force.

Zheng Rong seems to be Zhang Wudi's man, but what Zhang Wudi doesn't know is that Zheng Rong has been bribed by me a long time ago.

And Zheng Rong's promotion is also a natural result of my pushing him up.

But now, Zheng Rong actually wanted to withdraw from the fight without helping either of us. This was absolutely impossible in the eyes of anyone.

"When you were choosing your side, you stood on our side without hesitation in order to get this position, and even concealed your relationship with us from Zhang Wudi. What do you think Zhang Wudi would do if I announced your relationship with us?" Wu Sheng narrowed his eyes, with a sneer on his lips.

As for Zheng Rong, he was sweating all over his head and trembling all over.

"Director Zhang, I, I didn't mean that. I stood on your side back then, so I would definitely be loyal to you until death. Director Zhang, please give me some time. I promise, I promise to find out all about Zhang Wudi's team. What do you think..."

"How about this!" I interrupted Zheng Rong and said, "You take the action team back first. When I return to the Wu Shushan reserve, I will convene a meeting. It shouldn't take too long, at the fastest within a week, at the slowest within a month. You go back and wait for news."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Zheng Rong seemed relieved. After he breathed a sigh of relief, he hunched over and backed out.

"Zheng Rong, I hope you can think clearly about what you are involved in, and I also hope you can think clearly about what you should do. Director Zhang is an upright person, but you should know Mao Buhui, right? This person has a notorious reputation in the underworld, and he doesn't mind... getting close to your family."

Mr. Wu's words directly shocked Zheng Rong.

He looked at me seriously and then said, "Director Zhang, within three days, no matter where you are, I will go to see you."

After that, Zheng Rong turned around and left.

"Mr. Wu, what you said... is a bit too much?" I rubbed my forehead: "Aren't you afraid that if we push him too far, he will turn against us?"

"Don't worry, some people just need to be taught a lesson, otherwise they will never know what to do and won't be able to find their place. Since he was willing to be our dog in the first place, he should have the awareness of being a dog. Moreover, we also gave him a considerable price. After the matter is accomplished, he will be considered a core dignitary, and he will think things through himself." Mr. Wu said with a smile.

Seeing that I was still a little worried, he came over and patted my shoulder and said, "Qian Yu, the officialdom is like a battlefield. There are some things you can choose not to do, but you must let the other party know that when I want to do it, I have the ability to do it. In this way, people will be afraid of you. I understand that what you want is to win people's hearts, but not everyone can be won over, and not everyone needs us to win over. Some people are like knives, and we only need to use them when we need them. When we get the knife, we just need to use it well. We got the sharpness of the knife, and the knife also got the whetstone it needed. "

Mr. Wu smiled, and then continued: "As the saying goes, kindness cannot command an army, Qian Yu, in the future, as your position becomes higher and higher, the choices you will face will only become more and more cruel. Now, it's just the beginning!"

After that, Mr. Wu turned around and left. In an instant, I was the only one left in the huge room.

"Kindness cannot command an army..." I murmured in the chair, then stood up, looked at the dim night outside the window and suddenly laughed.

Who would have thought that a young man who walked out of a small mountain village a year ago would have been in a high position and even become a living ghost in just one year?

However...

although my status and even my practice have been greatly improved, am I still the same person as before? What

will I become in the future?

I am afraid...

by then, when I look back, I will even feel a little strange!

I suddenly remembered the carefree time I had with Hu Zi and Miao Cuicui in the village.

"Things have changed!"

I sighed!
