Chapter 1129 Jude is dead!
1986 12 Month 5 Day.
Friday.
early morning.
Yang Ming had just rested for a short time.
The phone rang in his living room on the first floor.
First, a bodyguard on the night shift went to answer the call and learned that it was a call from the Governor's Mansion. He asked Lin Dezhong to go over and answer the call. Lin Dezhong immediately woke up and learned that it was a serious matter, so he hurriedly called Yang Ming.
"Young Master Yang, it's a call from the Governor's Mansion."
Governor's Palace?
Yang Ming got up and answered the call directly in his study. The call in the living room had been transferred here.
After Yang Ming finished listening.
Apart from being a little surprised, it seemed normal.
That white-faced Jud is dead.
He actually died in Yanjing as he did in history.
In fact, in October, Jude felt that there was a physical problem. However, as the Chief Secretary, he had been very busy when the Queen came to the country and Hong Kong.
This time, he led the Heung Kong high-level economic delegation to host the opening ceremony for the Yanjing Office of the Heung Kong Trade Development Bureau, and presided over the opening ceremony of the first exhibition held by Heung Kong products in Yanjing.
I originally planned to return to Xiangjiang tomorrow morning.
Now he died of a heart attack where he stayed.
At that time, he was discovered that his body was no longer breathing.
At this time, Governor Mailihao was still in the Governor's Mansion. He was the first to learn the news and immediately informed Yang Ming.
A few years ago, before Yang Ming came to Xiangjiang, Yude knew that this man would not live long, and he really guessed it.
Historically, it was said that the other party was defeated by the Feng Shui pattern of the Z Silver Building.
However, now that there is no Z Silver Building, the other party is still dead.
What does this show?
What's more, the other party is not the Governor now, but the Chief Secretary.
"Mr. MacLehose, I'm going to the Governor's Palace right away."
Yang Ming woke up immediately.
Put on a coat.
Chen Zhenhua and others sent Yang Ming over.
While in the car, Yang Ming thought of a lot.
At first, the reason why he didn't want Yude to take the position of governor was mainly because Yang Ming didn't like this person. Sure enough, after Jude came to Xiangjiang, he plotted against him several times behind his back, but in the end there was nothing he could do.
Thanks to Yang Ming's network, Mailihao served as the governor of Xiangjiang for one more term.
However, Maliho is now at that age. Even if his contribution in Xiangjiang is greater, he will definitely retire at this age.
If Jude is still there, if nothing else goes wrong, Jude will definitely replace Mai Lihao after Mai Lihao retires.
However, now Jude actually died in the position of Chief Secretary.
Historically, Jude, as the sitting governor, died in Yanjing. At that time, his influence was still very great. Now he is only the chief secretary and the second-in-command of the Xiangjiang Governor-General's Office, and his influence is much smaller.
Then Yang Ming needs to think carefully.
Jude suddenly passed away due to a heart attack, so who would fill the vacant post of Chief Secretary?
Moreover, this person is likely to be the next new governor of Xiangjiang.
Chen Zhenhua was driving there, and Yang Ming looked out the window.
. . .
About an hour and a half.
Chen Zhenhua stopped the car.
When Yang Ming got off the car, Mailihao was already waiting.
When he saw Yang Ming arriving, Mailihao hurriedly welcomed Yang Ming in.
"Sir Yang, Jude passed away because of a heart disease. When the people around him found him, his body was already stiff." Mailihao said from the side.
Beginning in 1982, when Jude arrived in Hong Kong and became the new Chief Secretary of Hong Kong, MacLehose discovered that Jude was a workaholic.
It's been very busy.
In terms of the other party's work attitude, Mai Lihao was very impressed.
Even some of the work that originally belonged to Mailihao was completed by Jude.
"Mr. Maliho, in October, when he was busy greeting the Queen and her entourage, I saw that something was wrong with his expression."
October.
The queen and her husband arrived in Xiangjiang.
This is the second time the Queen has come to Hong Kong, and it is also the first time the Queen has come to Hong Kong in 97. This time the Queen’s arrival has caused a great sensation in Hong Kong.
As Chief Secretary, Yude had been doing various things. At that time, Yang Ming could tell that something was wrong with Yude's expression.
Who would have thought that less than two months later, when the other party went to Yanjing again, something like this would happen.
Of course, Jude died when he died.
Yang Ming doesn't like each other.
Mai Lihao didn't like Jude very much, mainly because Jude liked to steal his limelight.
"Sir Yang, if Jude is dead, it means that the position of Chief Secretary will be vacated, and the new Chief Secretary must be the next new Governor of Hong Kong. I wonder who you want to choose?"
This is what MacLehose cares about.
Originally, these matters were decided by the royal family and the cabinet.
Moreover, after Jude's death, the cabinet will definitely choose new candidates.
However, at this time, Mailihao knew that Sir Yang's opinion was more important.
"Mr. Maliho, I thought about this issue when I came here just now. There is a person who is really suitable."
"Sir Young, who?"
"Zhong Yijie."
Although this is a Chinese name, in fact, the other party is an authentic white person from Country Y.
Before that, Zhong Yijie had worked for a long time and even held the position of Secretary of State for Administration.
Historically, when Jude was the governor, the position of chief secretary was Zhong Yijie.
But now Mailihao is still in the position of governor, Jude has no chance to serve as governor, only the position of chief secretary, and Zhong Yijie is now only a special adviser.
When Yang Ming mentioned this person, Mailihao was really surprised. He didn't expect Sir Yang to recommend this person.
The two discussed there for a long time.
Among them, Mailihao will send people to Yanjing to deal with Jude's matter. At that time, Jude will have to be sent back to Xiangjiang for cremation before he can be sent back to Country Y.
After Mailihao discussed it with Yang Ming, he was relieved.
Yang Ming got into the car and left, heading back to the Repulse Bay Mid-Levels Villa.
. . .
The night was quiet.
However, it was early the next day.
Yang Ming still got up early as usual.
Today is Saturday, and the temperature in Xiangjiang in December has dropped a lot, so Yang Ming did not go to the swimming pool to swim again. When he takes a walk in the garden.
Having breakfast with her parents, Alina, Yingla and others.
Learned from the newspapers.
The Chief Secretary of Hong Kong, Youde, died of a heart attack at the place where he stayed last night, that is, in the early morning.
Yang Jirong and his wife were a little shocked after seeing the news.
On New Year's Eve, Yang Jirong and his wife still remember seeing Yude and his wife coming to attend the New Year's Eve banquet.
"Peter, Mr. Youde is actually dead?" Yang Jirong asked in shock.
"Daddy, do you still remember what I told you?"
Yang Ming is not a doctor, but he is very aware of Jude's situation in history. He was indeed a short-lived man.
I won’t write about the Queen’s visit to China! Afraid of being blocked! !
