?Chapter 1219: Chapter 1174: Liu Zhentao’s Decision Chapter 1219: Chapter 1174: Liu Zhentao’s Decision Liu Zhentao’s words surprised and puzzled He Mei. She knew her husband’s temperament very well—he was the epitome of perseverance. Throughout many years in his official career, He Mei had always been by his side. It could be said that she saw every drop of sweat and effort her husband made and had never seen him so disheartened before.

“Old Liu, what happened? This doesn’t seem like you,” He Mei said softly.

As the conversation continued, Liu Zhentao gradually adjusted his mindset. Initially, when he heard the news, he was shocked, but after all, Liu Zhentao was no ordinary figure. He certainly possessed the strength to cope.

By now, he had calmed down. He looked up at his wife, then said, “While we are still fighting tooth and nail for positions inside Longxi Province, Nie Zhenbang’s sights have long surpassed the level of a local hall section. He’s already targeting the provincial-ministerial level. Just now, I got a call from Zhenhai. It’s very likely that Nie Zhenbang’s older brother will take charge of a locality.”

“This…” He Mei was also stunned, somewhat incredulous, “That can’t be possible. He’s just a bureau-level official, how can he manipulate a promotion and transfer of a full ministerial level? Could it be a rumor?”

Upon hearing this, Liu Zhentao shook his head with conviction. Initially, he had the same thought. But now, having calmed down, he was sure that Nie Zhenbang indeed had that capability, “No, you know Zhenhai’s personality. He would never speak without firm evidence. The Nie family, in fact, has been led by Nie Zhenbang since Elder Nie stepped down. With his capabilities, this is nothing.”

Although He Mei was taken aback, she nonetheless comforted him with a smile, “Old Liu, don’t belittle yourself. Nie Zhenbang is indeed very capable and influential, but your goals differ from his. I think that Nie Zhenbang’s strength could actually be an advantage, even a benefit, for you.”
