In name only: In the name of Zhao Mengsheng's son!

To be honest, the Han University gang was originally fighting their own battles, but after Zhao Zhongxin went to Beijing, several of Gao Yuliang's fellow disciples who held high positions came to Zhao Zhongxin to pay their respects. They had all heard that Zhao Zhongxin showed great respect to his teacher, Gao Yuliang. For a scion of a prominent family to do this showed that he was a worthy person to follow!

The addition of these people allowed Zhao Zhongxin to create a "Han University Gang" in Beijing. Zhong Zhengguo had built a team in Beijing for so many years, but it was not as large as the team that Zhao Zhongxin organized in just one day after returning to Beijing!

There must be a reason for this respect for teachers. First, Gao Yuliang is a qualified teacher. Second, Zhao Zhongxin also has his eye on the group of people behind him! The academic world values ​​this so-called respect for teachers immensely. So if you think Zhao Zhongxin is just showing respect and acting as Gao Yuliang's nanny, you're wrong! The fact that he can gather Zhong Zhengguo's entire team in a single day is terrifying. Forget about their loyalty; given Zhao Zhongxin's position, do you think they would be loyal?

So when Zhao Mengsheng learned that Zhao Zhongxin had a large team, he realized that his son was not just so-called respectful of teachers and elders. No, it should be said that his son was even more terrifying than he was when he was young. In the early stages of his career, he relied on the promotion of his uncles and elders.

Zhao Mengsheng couldn't help but wonder when his son, Zhao Zhongxin, had managed to acquire such a large team simply by showing respect for his teachers.

Could there really be immortals in this world? Zhao Mengsheng's thoughts involuntarily drifted back to eleven years ago.

At that time, Zhao Mengsheng had already entered the central government and was enjoying the fruits of his labor. Ten days before the devastating earthquake, Zhao Zhongxin returned to Beijing and asked him to evacuate the people of Wenchuan. He just found it ridiculous! He thought his son had gone mad! Do you think it's ridiculous to say that yourself?

But Zhao Zhongxin looked at him with an almost pleading yet resolute gaze, and he was stunned. Zhao Mengsheng asked!

"Why? Why are you so sure!"

Zhao Zhongxin remained silent for a long time before finally saying something!

"An immortal touched my head, and I was granted eternal life."

Why is Zhao Zhongxin so sure? This is just a son from a parallel world. The reason is simple: Zhao Zhongxin clearly saw the memories of the Tangshan earthquake in the original body's memories, as well as the great flood of 98! So regardless of whether the 08 earthquake will come or not, Zhao Zhongxin has to do it. If it doesn't happen, that would be the best outcome, as it would only ruin his and his father's and father-in-law's future. But if it does happen, how many lives will be saved?

Given his position, Zhao Zhongxin could have continued his promotion without being affected if he had simply stood by and done nothing. But he is a human being, a Chinese citizen, and he cannot simply stand by and do nothing!

Zhao Zhongxin will never forget the father carrying his dead son's body after the earthquake, the teacher sheltering two students under their desks, and so on...

In the end, Zhao Mengsheng couldn't dissuade his son and gritted his teeth to do it. After that final moment, those who had been criticizing him stopped! Instead, they looked at Zhao Mengsheng with disbelief!

Zhao Mengsheng didn't say anything! He only said one sentence!

"Help! There must still be people suffering!"

Then the entire national machinery began to operate!

Later, some people asked Zhao Mengsheng why, and Zhao Mengsheng, in order to protect his son, also said something to his companions!

"An immortal touched my head, granting me eternal life!"

Now nobody asked any more questions; everyone has their own secrets! You're amazing that you could figure this out!

However, the team leader knew something: Zhao Zhongxin had returned to Beijing ten days ago, albeit discreetly, but he still received the news! It might be related to Zhao Zhongxin!

After the eldest brother achieved his goal, he paid close attention to Zhao Zhongxin. He had no son, but Zhao Mengsheng had always stood by his side. In terms of seniority, Zhao Mengsheng could have been in the top three, but that wasn't possible. Some people in his team had joined halfway through, and he had to give them status. If he had brought Zhao Mengsheng into the top three, then Zhang Likai would have been the most fortunate. And Zhao Mengsheng and Zhang Likai had been brothers for so many years, so he certainly wouldn't have taken away his brother's political resources!

So the two of them were ranked sixth or seventh, which was actually a political exchange. However, the boss also gave Zhao Mengsheng and Zhang Li another position! They both had military power!

In the Five Military Commands, Zhao Mengsheng was the Left Commander-in-Chief! Zhang Likai was the Right Commander-in-Chief, making them the second or third most important figures! This can be considered absolute trust!

So, while Zhao Mengsheng appears to be sixth, he's actually second; and while Zhang Likai appears to be seventh, he's actually third. Giving you positions doesn't mean we're good brothers. The only true brothers are Zhao Mengsheng and Zhang Likai. Actually, the eldest brother was somewhat confused at the time. Why would two established members of the Fuguo (a type of organization) bet on him, a newly returned member to Beijing? And not just established members, but two established families. It was also Zhao Zhongxin's selfish motive. If Zhao Mengsheng became number one and took over, he would likely become one of the 24 Heavenly Kings. The father-to-son succession is impossible now, so it's beneficial for him that his father didn't take the top spot!

Furthermore, the eldest brother has no son; he has no heir. You think Zhao Mengsheng, his old brother who has followed him for so many years, has a very capable son. As the eldest brother, wouldn't you consider Zhao Zhongxin as the successor for him, Zhao Mengsheng, and Zhang Likai? As for Zhang Dongxin, the eldest brother hasn't considered him, and neither has his father, Zhang Likai! The other brothers are indeed brothers, but they can't compare to Zhao Mengsheng and Zhang Likai. They were the ones who invested when he was at his weakest, providing crucial support. Without Zhao Mengsheng and Zhang Likai, he might not have achieved such success!

So, to use an old saying, the others were just subordinates, while Zhao Mengsheng and Zhang Likai were brothers. In ancient times, the two would be considered equals!

Therefore, in the eldest brother's eyes, Zhao Zhongxin is the perfect successor who cannot deny him in the future. If you deny me, you are denying your father and your father-in-law!

If Zhao Zhongxin hadn't gotten married so early, his daughter would have married him by now. But it doesn't matter, he has two granddaughters, three years older than Zhao Miao. As the saying goes, "A daughter three years older brings good fortune." He talked to Zhao Mengsheng about it a while ago, and Zhao Mengsheng readily agreed!

There's another one who happens to be three years older than Zhang Cheng. What a coincidence! Turning the two brothers into three in-laws—why not? Zhang Likai is naturally happy to oblige! We're already family! Now it's even better to be more closely related!
