I Am Gwen's Spider-Man Mentor.

Chapter 171
"But why should we help him?"

In front of a huge mahogany desk, Zheng Xian poured a cup of tea for the man wearing black casual clothes with his back leaning against the glass bookcase, and then sat down.On his right side, a small red flag hangs diagonally, showing the identity of the owner of this desk.

"Xiao Zheng..." The person behind the desk blew into the tea cup, causing ripples in the calmness. He sighed softly, without raising his eyes to look at the Director of the Divine Spear Bureau opposite. But Gu Jing said softly without wavering: "Have you heard the story of Yan Song returning to Fenyi after he was deposed?"

"Yan Song?" Zheng Xian raised his eyebrows and lowered his head: "This subordinate doesn't know."

"Well..." The man behind the desk blew the tea in the cup and said calmly: "At the end of the Jiajing year, Xu Jie finally defeated Yan Song and Yan Shifan's father and son. Yan Shifan was executed, and Yan Song was also Jiajing after all. A man whom the emperor had used for decades, with some degree of affection, was ordered to retire and be sent back to his hometown for distribution."

"There are many records in historical books saying that no one dared to take Yan Song in after he returned to his hometown, so he could only live in the ancestral hall in the wind and snow until he died of old age... But what is different from these 'official history' records is that Yan Song paid a lot of attention to his hometown during his tenure. To take care of him, after he returned to his hometown, the villagers were very grateful for his contribution, so they enshrined him in the ancestral hall and served him with good food and drink until he died in his 80s."

Zheng Xian frowned: "Why?"

The man behind the desk smiled: "Shaoleng stove, Shaoleng stove is a low-cost, high-yield investment."

"Burning the cold stove?"

"Not to mention that Yan Song has been with the emperor for decades and has long been in the emperor's heart. He may be resurrected by the emperor at any moment... Behind him, Yan Fenyi's grandson has also sat in the high position of the commander of the first-grade Jinyi Guards." Behind the desk. The man blew the tea leaves in the cup away, and then took a sip of the tea. The tea was fragrant and elegant, which was just right for his taste.

"People at that time were a little more cautious about politics. Yan Fenyi's dismissal was just a temporary fall. But in this political field, it's just commonplace for you to come and go, and to criticize. Who dares to bet on the future of a temporary loss of power? Why can’t we make a comeback?”

Zheng Xian's eyes lit up. He didn't expect his superior to think so highly of Raymond Xu.

"This guy Xu." The person behind the desk chuckled, "It's not easy to be aware of current affairs and smart, not to mention he is also a technical genius. Such people are rare in today's American political arena...more The important thing is that he still has ambition!"

The man behind the desk laughed so deeply that the wrinkles on his face were squeezed together: "Isn't such a person worthy of our investment?"

Zheng Xian's eyes flickered a few times, and after a few seconds, he nodded: "I understand what the old leader means, let's go and arrange it."

"But don't invest too many resources, just burn the cold stove..." The person behind the desk smiled lightly, "What stands out is the low cost. It's not good if you make the cost too high."

Zheng Xian nodded: "Our power in the United States is not enough to do much. After all, although SHIELD has collapsed, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence and agencies such as IARPA, NSA, and CIA are still staring at us. We can only Give him some intelligence support and at best protect him."

The person behind the desk nodded: "That's enough."

"There's one more thing, I don't know whether to talk about it or not..." Zheng Xian frowned, and he rarely hesitated.

Seeing the old leader across from him raise his eyebrows, the director of the Divine Spear Bureau boldly expressed his worries: "If we help him like this, he will inevitably be branded as a 'tongzhong'... This is under the political situation in the United States. , is it good?"

"..." The old leader was silent for a few seconds and then laughed: "Hahahaha! Xiao Zheng, you still don't understand Americans well enough!"

"Oh?" Zheng Xian frowned.

"The so-called 'connection with China' is just an excuse for them to attack each other... The people who really have good relations with us are the advisers and cabinet ministers that the US government and the opposition rely on. These people, you see. Who has ever touched them?"

Zheng Xian's eyes flickered again for a few times, and then he lowered his head: "The old leader still sees things thoroughly."

The old leader rarely made the true meaning of the matter clear to Zheng Xian: "The United States and we, two big countries of equal weight, always need a few channels of communication. If anything happens, the U.S. government and opposition parties can only rely on that. There are only a few people, why not add Raymond Xu?"

"However, what you said makes some sense. After giving him the brand of 'Tongzhong', he can be cited as an important adviser to the President of the United States and even occupy a very important position in the White House staff team. But at the same time, This means that all real positions of power in the United States will be closed to him."

"You mean the ministries?"

"Xiao Zheng!" the old leader said earnestly: "You have to learn more. The real power of the United States does not lie in the ministries of the government, but in the Capitol Hill and the Federal Supreme Court. After putting our brand on it, Xu will never get it again. I have the opportunity to enter these places." "But...how many things are accurate in the political field?" Zheng Xian understood the deep meaning in the old leader's eyes, and rushed to supplement the old leader at the right time. He told the truth that he had not finished telling: "What if Raymond Xu really has extraordinary means and breaks out into another world?"

Then the man looked at Zheng Xian - Zheng Xian quickly understood the meaning in the old leader's eyes, and they both laughed in unison, confusing the secretary waiting outside.

----split line----

While Gwen Stacy and Raymond Xu enjoyed the rare tenderness between them and gathered to discuss their next plan, political conspiracies continued to brew in the dark corners of New York City.

Sitwell pried open the cap of the bottle of celebration wine, poured the crystal clear champagne into a new and beautiful long-belly goblet, then raised the goblet and gave one to Kingpin beside him.

The bald agent's interest was particularly high today. Defeating Raymond Xu meant that the "Valkyrie Project" assigned to him by Alexander Pierce was fully successful...a move that made both Nick Fury and Maria Hill For those who are helpless, let yourself solve it in a few moments...

Sitwell thought with longing that he would definitely get more attention and resources from Alexander Pierce, right?
Kingpin was holding the wine glass, but he was a little worried. He looked at Sitwell opposite and drank the champagne in one gulp. He couldn't help but sigh and put the goblet on the table beside him.

"Drink?" Sitwell frowned, "Why don't you drink?"

"Worry, I can't drink it." Jin Bing sighed and shook his head, "I have never seen Raymond Xu's political skills in my life... We didn't defeat him head-on this time, we just borrowed from Stark This knife only kills people, but you have to know that Stark's knife may go back on his word at any time and even hurt you and me!"

"You are worrying too much!" With the help of the weak alcohol of the champagne, Sitwell reached out and patted Jin Bin on the shoulder, "Raymond Xu has fallen into the abyss. Isn't he Maybe he can make a comeback!”

Kingpin shook his head: "Not necessarily, I don't suggest you look down upon an opponent who used such horrific means to beat SHIELD to the point where it couldn't get up."

"Can't get up?" Sitwell narrowed his eyes, "You underestimate SHIELD too much!"

"Opening champagne at halftime is not a good habit." Kingpin shrugged. Although there is no AC Milan in Istanbul in this world, Kingpin still instinctively felt a little uneasy based on his many years of experience in wallowing in the quagmire of New York.

"Then what are you going to do?!" Sitwell looked a little sulky. He placed the goblet in his hand heavily on the table nearby, his voice quite dissatisfied.

"What I mean is..." The fat man in a white suit took a deep breath and exhaled. He turned around, took a few steps, then turned around and said viciously: "To cut the grass, we must root it out!"

"Huh?" Sitwell frowned.

"What I mean is-" Jin Bin quickly approached, his tone became vicious: "For people like Raymond Xu, we must eradicate them all at once and not give him a chance to make a comeback!"

"Oh? How to do it?" Sitwell didn't really want to reject the idea. After all, killing Raymond Xu, who has now lost the Stark Industrial security system and the protection of Tony Stark himself, looks much more fragile. It's a target that can be struck at any time, and no one will care after it is struck, and can be thrown into the trash at any time.

"We might as well make Stark regret it and let him kill Raymond Xu with his own hands... Or, the NYPD can give him a reason to arouse his anger and give him a chance to hunt him down. The former CEO seeks revenge for the woman he loves."

At this point, Jin drank all the wine in his glass, and his voice became more powerful: "Only when I see the bodies of Raymond Xu and Gwen Stacy can I truly let go. Come on!"

Sitwell was silent for a while, and then sighed: "That's right, then why don't you tell me about your script?"

"The NYPD can say this to Stark -" Kingpin pondered for a moment, then slowly narrated: "They illegally obtained evidence and determined that Raymond Xu is the real murderer, but because it was illegally obtained evidence, so The NYPD was unable to file an indictment with the District Attorney."

"We can exaggerate a little more and say that Raymond Xu is still at large after usurping power... You can find other companies and throw out olive branches to Raymond Xu at this time, and you don't need him to accept it, just The need for this information is enough to scare Stark!”

　This Kingpin is probably the most difficult Kingpin in this bunch of Spider-Man novels.
