Xu Xiang was panicked.

Looking at Xu Ziyuan, who was still sitting by the window and savoring the wine with great pleasure, he rushed to the other party and shook the other party's arms: "Brother Xu, Senior Brother Xu, help me think of a solution, how is this good?"

Xu Ziyuan was unmoved and let Xu Xiang sway himself, but just held the wine glass high so that the wine would not spill.

It was not until Xu Xiang finally gave up his movements dejectedly that he took another sip of wine: "This is a good thing! Your Governor Xu jumped from a member of the side to the No. 2 figure in the Tang Empire. This is a step to reach the sky. I want such a good thing! But no one can look down on me!"

Xu Xiang looked at the other party viciously, stretched out his hand, grabbed the wine glass from the other party, and drank it with no drops left.

Looking at Xu Xiangzhen's a little angry, Xu Ziyuan said seriously: "Xu Xiang, this is really a good thing! Don't you want to sit in this position to realize your dream?"

Xu Xiang looked at the other party, and Wei Ran sighed: "Who can't think about it? But I thought it would take at least ten years before I could have the qualifications to compete for this position. Now, I was clearly being used as a gun by those people, and they were urging me to fight with the elderly people like Cao's Ministry of Personnel! Xu Ziyuan, I tell you, if someone is not done well, I will be ruined."

"Not that serious!" Xu Ziyuan smiled.

"Why isn't it serious?" Xu Xiang said angrily: "Everyone knows that the one who has the most chance to get this position is Cao's Ministry of Personnel. He is the most powerful supporter of Li Xiangqi when he was in a short period of time. Over the years, he has been the Minister of Personnel. This is the largest department in the world. It is natural to take a step forward. Now Han Qi and Xue Ping, two people who are afraid of the world, are they rushing me forward. Isn't this taking me out to fight with Cao's Ministry of Personnel and the others? If I win, with my qualifications, how can I use those seniors to lose, and I am afraid that my life will be even worse in the future. It would be strange if the Ministry of Personnel doesn't deal with me?"

Xu Ziyuan sneered: "Does our Tang Dynasty rely on qualifications rather than ability to do things? If this is the case, why should you take the position of the governor of Zhejiang?"

"Can you not talk about qualifications? Don't deceive yourself!" Xu Xiang leaned back and put his head on the back of the chair, "What should I do?"

"Xu Xiang, Li Xiang has already set the rules. Whether it is Han Qi or Xue Ping, they are all acting within the rules. One hundred representatives signed a joint nomination and are qualified to participate in the election. Now, you can't avoid it even if you want to. The nomination has been reported to Li Xiang's desk, and the next thing you are waiting for is the voting process. Whether you are afraid or not, there is no way out for this matter." Xu Ziyuan said: "If Cao Xin and others hate you, then they are already hated now. Instead of complaining about themselves here, I think you should stand up openly and explain your development philosophy and development strategy to more people, and strive for more people to support you. As you said, if you lose, you can only win, and you have to win beautiful things."

Xu Xiang covered his face and said helplessly: "To be honest, sometimes when it's late at night, I also think about how to do things well by sitting in this position, but now I really have a chance, but I have no idea. Brother Xu, I'm 36 this year. Don't you think I'm too young? No matter whether I'm doing well or not in this position, what should I do in the future?"

Xu Ziyuan stared at Xu Xiang for a while, and suddenly burst into laughter: "Okay, Xu Xiang, I thought you were afraid of Cao Xin? After a long time, you have something else in your heart!"

"It's something else!" Xu Xiang said calmly.

"You're thinking too much!" Xu Ziyuan said disdainfully: "You are thirty-six, you are young, how old is Li Xiang this year? Are you younger than you? Can you compare with Li? Is it prestige? Qualification? Ability?"

"Of course there is no comparison!" Xu Xiang said.

"Isn't it going to be together!" Xu Ziyuan said: "Since you are not as good as Li Xiang, and you are not even as old as Li Xiang, what are you afraid of? Are you afraid that you will do too well in this position and threaten Li Xiang, and you will be able to shock the master with a great merit? Or are you worried that if you sit in this position for too long, you will form a clique for personal gain and then lose a good ending?"

Xu Xiang sighed, "Although it's a bit unfair, I have to think about it. Moreover, I think Cao Xin may be more in line with Li Xiang's meaning."

"At this point, I have different opinions from you!" Xu Ziyuan shook his head and said, "You are a fan of the authorities. You have been confused these days and have not thought about the problems carefully."

"Is there any problem?" Xu Xiang asked back.

"Is there no problem?" Xu Ziyuan smiled and said, "With Li Xiang's prestige, if he shows a little bit of a word, will everything be stopped? What one person and one vote? All of them must be based on Li Xiang's intentions, and there are so many things there."

Xu Xiang nodded: "That's true."

"The Discipline Inspection Commission, Li Xiang is interested in Wu Jin. Let Cao Zhang come out, just to find a big umbrella for Wu Jin to cover him. After all, Wu Jin's qualifications are still incomparable to you. In the past, he was just Hou Zhen's deputy in Cangzhou, and it was impossible to get it in one step. This meaning was revealed by Chen Wenliang. Who is Chen Wenliang? Secretary Shaoqing, and Li Xiang's personal secretary, would he say these words at will? Of course, it was Li Xiang's meaning."

Xu Xiang nodded.

"Not to mention the Military Commission, it can only be Li Xiang himself. Whoever wants to compete for this position is that the birthday boy is hanging, and he is too long to live." Xu Ziyuan said: "Even if Prime Minister Li Xiang can hold a boat in his stomach, the big guys in the army can tear this guy apart."

Xu Xiang couldn't help laughing: "Who is so crazy?"

"Where is the Cultural, Education and Health Commission? I'm afraid it's a must-have. This old man is unparalleled in his knowledge and stayed in the Ministry of Rites for so long, and he will naturally get this position."

"Information and Security Committee, who can compare with the old guy Gongsun Changming? What's more important is that in this position, except for people like Gongsun Changming, most people are unwilling to touch their hands."

"So, the truly competitive one is the Economic Development Committee. The position of the Pinsheng is the most important. This position is basically the prime minister." Xu Ziyuan smiled and said: "Li Xiang must go further, and the position of the Economic Development Committee is the first person below Li Xiang. Such an important position, Li Xiang doesn't say anything, what does this mean? It means that Li Xiang himself is dissatisfied with Cao Xin's desire to compete for this position."

"It makes sense!" Xu Xiang was very energetic.

"In fact, let Cao Zhang choose the chairman of the Discipline Supervision Committee to be the one who is trying to persuade Cao Xin to leave in disguise. How could it be that the father and son join the Supreme Committee at the same time? Cao Gong was smart all his life, but he was confused at the last moment. No, no, no, he was not confused. He just wanted to make his life more perfect, even if he only served every five years."

Xu Xiang sighed: "If someone hadn't told me, why would I want to compete with Cao's Ministry of Personnel? To be honest, Cao's Ministry of Personnel has always been good to me."

"This is not a favor! This is a major event in governing the country. Li Xiang is probably dissatisfied with Cao's Ministry of Personnel because of this? Feeling is emotion, governing the country is governing the country. These are two different things." Xu Ziyuan said: "It cannot be used for exchange. If this can be exchanged, why should Li Xiang try his best to come up with this set of rules."

Xu Xiang nodded.

"I can also see that Li Xiang is making our officials younger. What Li Xiang wants to find is a helper who can be in tune with him, who can move forward boldly, let go, and move forward with his pace. People like Cao's Ministry of Personnel have their background, experience, and experience that determine that they want to be more mature and persistent and follow step by step, but it is obvious that Li Xiang does not think so. Or, this is the key to Li's refrain from saying a word."

"That's true!" Xu Ziyuan agreed: "You just need to look at the two speeches Li Xiang had connected to the officials in the past two days. Li Xiang wanted to fundamentally change the empire's model of ruling the world. First, it was above politics, and then it was bound to be above economy. People like Cao's Ministry of Personnel obviously did not meet Li Xiang's desire to further revolutionize the world. He hoped that there would be a younger official who was more likely to accept Li Xiang's concept to take charge of this crucial committee. And you, when you were in Shandong, you focused on agriculture and sericulture, and when you were in Zhejiang, you were committed to industry and commerce. More importantly, you were one of the first people to accept Li Xiang's ideas. When Li Xiang went on a tour last year, he talked with you specifically?"

"Yes." Xu Xiang nodded and said, "But at that time, I didn't think of these."

"So, your appearance was not accidental." Xu Ziyuan smiled and said, "Han Qi and Xue Ping, or they wanted to urge you because of their own little abacus, but it happened to coincide with Li Xiang's idea."

"So, is my chance of winning?"

"That's not necessarily true!" Xu Ziyuan smiled and said, "This is the reason why I asked you to go out generously and tell others about your development philosophy. It is because Li Xiang will not interfere with this competition, and Cao Xin will never give up. Don't forget that Cao Xin's own strength should not be underestimated. The majority of the representative candidates this time are the Northlands. What you need is to convince some of these people to support you. The chairman election of the Economic Development Committee is the first. If Cao Xin really wins you, Cao Zhang will have to withdraw."
