Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 1101 Wang Mengqun's Trouble

In these extraordinary times, the Lin family is under tight security both internally and externally.

The Beijing Police Department, the Detective Team, and the Assistant Bureau deployed a large number of personnel to guard the residence, which was also under strict management, creating a slightly tense atmosphere.

Lin Ze was quite relaxed. He invited his family's opera troupe to sing in the main hall, while he himself reclined on the soft couch, eating fruit.

Niu San'er came to ask if they should raise the surveillance level on some people, and Lin Ze lazily replied, "No rush, let's play around with them and see how many people will actually come out."

Meanwhile, the atmosphere inside the Governing Committee building was becoming increasingly tense.

When Wang Mengqun came to power, Lin Ze's influence in the Governing Committee grew, which was followed by a personnel storm. Many powerful figures from Wang Kemin's era were reassigned, some were given sinecure positions, and some simply retired home.

In Lin Ze's view, he had already been very lenient towards these traitors, big and small. If he hadn't been worried that Okamura would become suspicious, he would have found an opportunity to kill them all long ago.

But in the eyes of these traitors, big and small, what were they working so hard to become traitors, some of whom had even been removed from their family genealogies? It was all for the sake of becoming officials and getting rich.

As soon as Lin Ze took power, he immediately sidelined them, which was worse than killing them!

When Lin Ze was at the height of his power, they naturally kept their tails between their legs and dared not speak.

But now, Lin Ze has killed too many Japanese soldiers and ronin, and the news is spreading like wildfire. Some people have even said that Okamura is no longer meeting with Lin Ze, and that Lin Ze is about to fall from power!

In this atmosphere, some people became restless.

Wang Mengqun was reviewing documents in his office. Since meeting Lin Ze at the train station, he had felt somewhat relieved, but he was still on edge.

At that moment, the secretary rushed in, looking flustered. "President, President, something terrible has happened!"

Wang Mengqun was most averse to hearing the words "not good," and immediately frowned, asking, "Is there any new news from Master Lin?"

"It's not Master Lin, it's... it's Wu Siyuan, Wang Heming and those people. They're demanding to see you, saying they want an explanation!"

Wang Mengqun was both shocked and furious. "They want an explanation? What explanation do they want!"

The secretary mentioned Wu Siyuan and Wang Heming, who were all staunch supporters of Wang Kemin. For example, Wu Siyuan served as the director of the Education Bureau, overseeing various schools. Wang Heming was a special committee member and a legal affairs committee member, holding high positions of power.

These people were deeply influenced by Wang Kemin, and when Wang Kemin firmly sided with Lin Ze later on, they were still hesitant. So when Lin Ze promoted Wang Mengqun, he simply sidelined them, removing those who needed to be removed and replacing those who needed to be replaced.

"Chairman, Wang Heming is making a scene outside, saying that removing him from his position as a special committee member was against the rules, that he is still a special committee member and has the right to convene meetings, and that he wants everyone to judge the matter..."

Wang Mengqun frowned deeply; this was very troublesome.

They dared to cause trouble, so they must have come prepared.

If he rashly steps forward at this time, he will inevitably fall into their trap. But if he continues to ignore them and lets them continue to make a fuss outside, the committee will become unsettled, and his authority as chairman will be completely lost.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Mengqun stood up. "Tell them to go to the reception room. I want to see what tricks these old men are up to!"

When they arrived at the reception room, it was as chaotic as a vegetable market. There were about ten people, young and old, with Wu Siyuan and Wang Heming in the lead.

As soon as Wang Mengqun entered, the room fell silent. Wang Heming snorted coldly, "President Wang, you have quite the airs. You've kept us waiting!"

Wu Siyuan said with a smile, "Brother Heming, don't be in a hurry. Let the chairman sit down and talk. The chairman is always fair and just. If we are indeed wronged, I don't think the chairman will sit idly by. Since he came to see us, it means he is willing to solve our problems."

Wu Siyuan is a veteran traitor. Back when Toyotomi Hideyoshi was active in North China, he was already flirting with the Japanese intelligence agencies. Later, when the notorious traitor surnamed Yin was promoting the so-called East Hebei Autonomous Region, he also participated. And when the North China Governing Committee was established, he held a high position. Naturally, he is cunning and treacherous.

Wang Mengqun sat down on the sofa. “Old Wu, you are mistaken. Whether I feel wronged or not is not up to me, nor is it up to you. This grievance is not something that can be said to exist or be put on display at will.”

Wang Heming retorted, "You're the president, I'm a committee member. If you don't have the final say, who does? If we have grievances, who else can we turn to if not you?"

Wang Mengqun was furious. How dare this scoundrel be so disrespectful!

“Committee Member Wang, of course it is General Okamura who has the final say. If you have any grievances, you may go and complain to the General.”

Unexpectedly, Wang Heming was quite tough. He immediately stood up and said, "Then let's go. Let's go to the Army Headquarters and reason with them. We have also made contributions and done our part for the Great Japanese Empire! And you just kick us aside. I want to see if General Okamura supports you or us. Let's go and reason with them!"

The young men following behind him also started making a fuss.

Wang Mengqun, being a scholar, lacked experience in political struggles, and was somewhat at a loss when Wang Heming pressured him like this!

At this moment, Wu Siyuan said with a smile, "Hey, Brother Heming, Brother Heming, sit down first, don't be in such a hurry. I'll say it again: since Chairman Wang is willing to see us, it means that Chairman Wang wants to solve the problem. What do you say, Chairman Wang?"

Wang Mengqun remained silent with a sullen face. These people had obviously rehearsed, and whether he spoke or not, he would make a mistake.

Wu Siyuan continued, "Chairman Wang, Brother Heming has always been a refined gentleman, so there's a reason for his agitation this time. When Brother Heming served as the Legal Affairs Commissioner, it can be said that all the rules and regulations of our North China Governance Committee came from him! Chairman Wang, you are an expert, you should know the hard work involved and appreciate the contributions, right? So why did you remove Brother Heming from his position as Commissioner without even informing him or discussing it with him?"

Wang Mengqun said coldly, "These are all old, forgotten stories. Why didn't you say anything back then?"

Wu Siyuan seemed to have known he would ask this question. “Hey, you can’t say that. Is it too late to talk about this now? I don’t think it’s too late. Besides, when you first took office, Chairman Wang, the brothers couldn’t refuse you, so they had to swallow their pride. Now that you’ve established yourself, it’s time to give us an explanation.”

Wang Mengqun broke out in a sweat; those words were too vicious!

Wu Siyuan said that when he first took office, he pointed out the influence of Lin Ze behind the scenes. He was practically saying that we were not afraid of you, but we were afraid of Lin Ze. Then he said that now that you have a firm foothold, the meaning is that without Lin Ze, you are nothing. If you want to be the chairman, then invite us back. Otherwise, you may not be able to continue as chairman!
