This strict investigation naturally did not let anyone go, regardless of the relationship and status of the people involved, all transfer orders were subject to a second review, and Wen Changyi’s transfer order was naturally included.
This time, even if the Liu family had Tongtian, they couldn’t intervene, so soon, the authenticity of Wen Changyi’s promotion was questioned. There was no other reason. Among all the candidates, Wen Changyi was not the best, just in terms of personal qualities and military exploits, he was far inferior to Ji Yan.
Wen Changyi’s transfer order was immediately detained, and the leadership involved in the decision was also investigated one by one, including Father Liu. Although the leadership who could decide on the transfer order were not ordinary people, it was reasonable to say that nothing would happen usually even if they were caught, but this time the commander-in-chief personally checked it. Unless your position was stronger than the commander-in-chief, you had to accept inquiries and investigations obediently.
Seeing how big this incident had become, the other direct leaders except Father Liu realized the seriousness of the matter in their hearts. After weighing the pros and cons, they naturally wouldn’t sell themselves for the Liu family’s face, and they didn’t dare to hide it at all. So, they confessed it all, the one that should be sold could only be sold.
In the end, it was confessed that the original candidate for the promotion was Ji Yan but was replaced by Wen Changyi, and the actions of the Liu family were exposed to everyone. Father Liu was the first to bear the brunt and was immediately put into custody, and Wen Changyi naturally also couldn’t escape, and he was strictly guarded, his personal freedom was restricted, and his family members were not allowed to visit him.
The Liu family was already scared out of their wits because of this series of violent actions, and the whole family was in panic because of Father Liu and Wen Changyi being detained. Mother Liu was so scared that her face turned pale.
“How could this happen? Well, why did they do the second review?” Mother Liu muttered, she couldn’t figure it out. It was not like this had not happened before, but there had never been a problem, let alone after the result had been determined. Now, why was it suddenly re-investigated this time? Could it be that someone deliberately did it to deal with the Liu family?
Liu Zixuan was no better than Mother Liu, and was in fact even more flustered than Mother Liu, running around like a headless chicken, not even caring about her children. She also couldn’t figure out why this happened. According to her father’s status and connections, it was impossible for the matter to be investigated. Didn’t the people above always only look at the results! “Someone must have intentionally tried to punish our Liu family, otherwise the headquarters wouldn’t do this all of a sudden.”
Mother Liu also thought that someone was deliberately dealing with them, but the order was issued by the commander-in-chief himself. The ability to even alarm the commander in chief? People who had a bad relationship with our Liu family should not have such great ability.
Liu Zixuan bit her lower lip, and suddenly remembered Ji Yan and his family who had always been against their family during this period of time. Then she said, surprised: “Mom, could it be the Ji family who did it? They are the only ones who have enmity with us during this time.”
Mother Liu paused and shook her head, “Impossible, that Ji Yan is an ordinary person, how can he have such a great ability to alarm the commander-in-chief? Do you think the commander-in-chief can be seen by others whenever they want?”
Liu Zixuan thought about it, and was immediately discouraged and irritated, “Who is that? Who has the ability to deal with us? And take action against the Liu family!”
Mother Liu suddenly stood up from the sofa, “No, I have to go back and find your grandfather to investigate this matter, no matter what we have to find out what is going on, so as to have a chance to save your father and Changyi.”
Liu Zixuan seemed to see hope suddenly, “Yes, Mom, although grandpa has retired, he still has connections, so it should be fine to inquire about something, go and ask grandpa to ask who is trying to punish us.”
Liu Zixuan’s grandfather was also a veteran revolutionary soldier, and most people would still give him face, so it was easy to inquire about something, so after Mother Liu went to intercede, although Grandpa Liu was very angry at their use of power for personal gain, but he felt distressed as well. After all it was his own daughter, so with a thick old face, he helped to inquire.
As a result, this inquiring brought out unbelievable facts, and the relationship between Ji Yan and Grandpa Ji was found out directly. Now there was nothing to understand. The Liu family used illegal means to snatch the promotion opportunity of his grandson, and they didn’t do anything other than let the above conduct a thorough investigation, they should feel lucky enough!
Grandpa Liu immediately went back and scolded Mother Liu bloody.
When the mother and daughter of the Liu family found out the identity of Ji Yan from Grandpa Liu, they were stunned, unable to get up on the sofa, and couldn’t believe their ears.
“Dad, you didn’t lie to me, did you? That Ji Yan is really the grandson of old general Ji Anshan? How is this possible?” Mother Liu hoped that her father had misunderstood.
Grandpa Liu slapped the table heavily with a sullen face, “How is this impossible! Tell me what you do all day! The power is given to you for the welfare of the people, not for your benefit. If I knew what you were doing, I would have broken your legs!”
Mother Liu shrank her shoulders in fright, old revolutionaries like her father hated things like using power for personal gain, so they always did it without telling the old man, who knew that they couldn’t hide it even if they wanted to hide it now.
Mother Liu said slowly: “Dad, we really didn’t know that Ji Yan was the grandson of old general Ji. If we knew, we would never do such a thing.”
“Oh? Then you can snatch the credit from people who have no family background! You look at Ji Yan, he obviously has such a powerful family background, but he never said it. After so many years, no one knows. But what about you? You will use that little bit of power to benefit yourself, no wonder you were so unlucky!”
The mother and daughter of the Liu family were scolded bloody by Grandpa Liu, but they did not dare to speak back, waiting for the old man to finish losing his temper. After it was almost finished, Mother Liu bit the bullet and begged: “Dad, we did something wrong, but things have already happened like this. You should find a way to save us. We promise that it will never happen again next time.”
Grandpa Liu sighed, waved his hands wearily and said, “I can’t help with this matter. I can’t say a word. This time, you are destined to be taught a lesson.”
All of a sudden, his spirit seemed to have been taken away.
