Chapter 12: The Crown Prince of Nie Family

  "Director Gu, this is the document to be submitted to the leader, please take a look." In the General Office of the State Council, Nie Jialiang handed over the materials he had sorted out last night as soon as he went to work. Although Nie Jialiang was mainly responsible for assisting Vice Premier Huang, and Vice Premier Huang was his uncle. However, when doing things, Nie Jialiang always followed the rules according to his position.

  Nie Jialiang is a capable person, able to write articles or speeches. He has a good grasp of current events. With his identity and position, Director Gu doesn't put on any airs of superiority. Smiling, he said: "Jialiang, no need to be so polite. I trust you to handle things."

  ……

  Soon, the materials were placed on Deputy Prime Minister Huang's desk. After looking at a few documents, suddenly, this article caught Deputy Prime Minister Huang's attention, just by glancing at the title. Deputy Prime Minister Huang stood up with a start. Can Jia Liang write such an article? Is someone intentionally doing this? Deputy Prime Minister Huang was somewhat surprised. He carefully read through the notes and also sensed something unusual.

  Nie Zhenbang's handwriting is a strenuous imitation of Nie Jianguo's notes. However, in the previous life, Nie Zhenbang and Nie Jianguo did not have much contact between them. Although he knew about these notes, he still tried his best to imitate them. Unfortunately, there are always some differences in imitation. If it were another leader, they might think this was written by Nie Jianguo. But Huang Deputy Premier is a different story. Putting aside his position, Huang Deputy Premier is actually Nie Jianguo's maternal grandfather. Or you could say that this handwriting was taught to him personally by Huang Deputy Premier.

  What kind of person wants to harm his own grandson? Deputy Premier Huang also fell into deep thought, his eyes filled with anger. Whoever it is, as long as he can find out, he will definitely not let him off lightly.

  After reading the entire article, Vice Premier Huang's expression was very solemn. Looking at the article on the table, Vice Premier Huang didn't know how to evaluate it. Was it shocking and astonishing? Or was it alarmist talk? Or perhaps, did someone have ulterior motives, thinking of using this opportunity to disrupt the current good situation of domestic reform and opening up? Or maybe, it was truly a wake-up call?

  At this thought, Deputy Premier Huang stood up: "Little Guo, prepare the car. I'm going to Mei Xiang Garden."

  Mei Xiang Garden, this is where the Paramount Leader resides. As the helmsman of domestic reform and opening-up, although the Paramount Leader does not hold the highest position within the Party, he is however the supreme leader of the Military Commission.

  "Ah, Minister Huang. You're in such a rush. This doesn't seem like your style." The Premier said with a smile as he saw Vice-Premier Huang hurrying over.

  "Director, today I received an article, which was handed over through my grandson Nie Jialiang's document. Please take a look." Vice Premier Huang was very clever at this moment. He didn't specify who wrote it, but pointed out the source of the article. By saying so, he left some room for maneuvering for both himself and Nie Jialiang.

  After reading the article, the leader's face also turned serious. After a while, the leader said seriously: "Jian Sheng, this is the work of a mastermind. Your grandson may not have reached this level yet. He still needs to be trained in domestic politics, let alone international political environment."

  In short, it revealed the truth that the head of state was indeed the one. This made Vice Premier Huang breathe a sigh of relief; no matter what, Nie Jialiang was at least not in any major trouble.

  But at this time, the leader smiled and said: "Jian Sheng, my intention is that you and I know about this matter. This article, hand it over to 'Warning Bell' and say it's my intention. It must be published in its original form. Hmm, as for the name, let's just use Nie Jialiang's."

  With the first blow of the yuan, a new issue of "Alarm Bell" was published. The title of the article was prominently marked on the front page. In the preface, a special comment made by the yuan leader for this article was used. Starting from the second page, the full text of the article was published.

  For a time, the whole country was boiling. The Soviet Union, the vast Soviet Union, the world's largest superpower. In the socialist camp, the only super-existence that can rival the United States is facing the danger of disintegration due to reform. The author's bold speculation immediately set off a wave of action among theorists and professors across the country.

  The neutral and conservative factions also began to stir. Under their respective instructions, people below them praised the article in newspapers, saying that reform was impossible and that the Soviet Union was a model for China.

  Old Master Nie was furious on this side, slapping the tea table with a loud bang, and two teacups were shaken off immediately. His eyes scanned around Nie Guodong and Nie Guowei, finally falling on Nie Jialiang's body.

  This kind of meeting. The women of the Nie family are absolutely not allowed to participate, and the men on the side of the Nie family. After all, Nie Min is just a student and only has the qualification to listen in. This is still because Old Master Nie had the intention to let Nie Min learn beforehand, so he specially allowed him to stay. As for Nie Zhenbang, at this time, in the eyes of Old Master Nie, he was simply an illegitimate son who could be dispensed with and did not have the qualification to participate.

  "Jia Liang, speak up! What's going on? How could you write such an article? What are your intentions?" Old Master Nie thundered.

  Ordinary people who read this article will definitely think it is criticizing the domestic reform. However, at the level of old masters and top leaders, the way of thinking and perspective on problems are different. On the surface, the article appears to be criticizing the reform, but in fact, it is affirming the domestic reform. Because the article lists many differences between domestic reforms and Soviet reforms. Although conservatives use this to attack the reformers, internally they have some dissatisfaction with Nye's family. What's going on? Nye's family has already agreed with the reform.

  Nie Jialiang was still in a daze at this time, and he wasn't quite clear how the article had been submitted under his name. All Nie Jialiang knew was that suddenly, the whole country was discussing and inquiring about his name. The Hope Daily even published an article by a signed commentator to refute his views. The conservative faction's words were fierce. The momentum was so fierce that it made Nie Jialiang feel a little scared at this moment.

  At this moment, Nie's young master lowered his head and didn't dare to look up. He muttered: "Grandfather, I really didn't write this article. I don't know either."

  The old man's eyes were piercing, staring at Nie Jialiang for half a day. In his lifetime, the old man had seen countless people. Nie Jialiang's performance was immediately clear to him. After a moment of silence, he also seemed somewhat downcast and sighed: "What a clever move to sow discord."

  ……

  As the old man left, Nie Guodong and Nie Guowei both stood up and walked out. At this critical moment, Nie Guodong's appointment order also came down. Like Nie Guowei, the two brothers were transferred to eastern Guangdong at the same time. However, Nie Guowei served as the deputy secretary of the Yuehai Municipal Committee and mayor of the Yuehai People's Government, while Nie Guodong served as the deputy commander of the Guangzhou Military Region and first deputy political commissar. This is enough to show that the supreme leader has also started taking action. As the garrison force guarding the capital city, the supreme leader will not take risks.

  As soon as the elder left, Nie Jialiang's expression turned serious. He looked at Nie Jimin who was sitting on the sofa playing with his fingers and said: "Jimin, tell me honestly, where did this article come from?"

  Just after the article was published, Nie Jialiang himself carefully recalled that in the office, there shouldn't be anyone who could frame him so stealthily. In that case, there's only one possibility left. This thing must have been done by a mole. Moreover, it's someone who can get in touch with him at any time. So, the suspect has emerged. Only Nie Jiamin could do this.

  Nie Jiamin was taken aback for a moment, then stood up, stiffening his neck and saying: "Big brother, when speaking, one must have evidence. When catching an adulterer, one must catch both parties, when catching a thief, one must seize the stolen goods. What makes you certain that I did it?"

  At this moment, Nie Zhenbang walked in from outside with a smile and applause. Looking at Nie Jiamin, Nie Zhenbang was very happy. In this situation, Nie Jiamin did not betray himself, at least he had already gained Nie Jiamin's recognition. This is also a good thing.

  As soon as Nie Zhenbang appeared, the Nie family's Liang couldn't help but think that Nie Zhenbang looked like a big villain who had come back to seize the family property. His face sank, and he pointed at Nie Zhenbang: "It's you. What qualifications do you have to enter here? Get out immediately."

  Nie Zhenbang's expression changed. He didn't care about Nie Jia Liang's reaction at all, and instead sat down on the sofa, propping up his second leg. He said lightly: "Nie family prince, third-generation direct heir, eldest son and grandson. Big brother, if you have this kind of mentality, I'm really a bit worried that under your hands, the Nie family will become what kind of situation."

  "What do you mean? Nie Zhenbang, you need to be clear about your identity. You're just...you're just the son of my second uncle. You haven't even gained recognition from the family yet. What qualifications do you have to speak to me like that?" Nie Jialiang had originally intended to scold the illegitimate child, but after thinking for a moment, he decided to hold back those vicious words.

  Nie Zhenbang said calmly, "Big brother, your guess is very accurate. That article was written by me, and I also let Jiamin put it in your file. It can be said that the current passive situation of the Nie family is all caused by me. But don't you think, are you living a more comfortable life now compared to before?"
