The next day, Zheng Shidong personally led the team to Songbei. Qiao Liang was notified and waited specifically in the reception room.

Zheng Shidong brought the staff here, first went to the county discipline inspection, and then went directly to the reception room.

"Comrade Qiao Liang, today I am here to talk to you on behalf of the organization to learn about some questions. I hope you can answer truthfully." Zheng Shidong did not greet Qiao Liang, and said seriously as soon as he entered the door. Because there were staff members present and records throughout the conversation today, Zheng Shidong took a formal attitude as soon as he entered the door.

Qiao Liang nodded and said, "Secretary Zheng, if you have any questions, just ask me, I will answer them as it should."

After a brief greeting, both sides immediately took their seats. The staff also sat down on the side and prepared to make records.

Zheng Shidong took out a stack of photos from his briefcase and handed them to Qiao Liang, saying, "Comrade Qiao Liang, you can take a look at these photos first."

Qiao Liang took the photo and after receiving the relevant news last night, this was the first time Qiao Liang saw the photo. Compared to Zhang Haitao's oral statement, what he saw with his own eyes is undoubtedly clearer at this moment.

After quickly watching the whole set of photos, Qiao Liang's eyes finally fixed on the man carrying a suitcase. Because the photo was taken from the back angle, this photo could only see the other person's back. From the photo alone, the other person was like his follower, following behind him.

"This person..." Qiao Liang pointed to the photo and frowned slightly. The scene of the night before yesterday came to his mind. Qiao Liang immediately thought of the man walking behind him with a suitcase. But the other party did not follow him at the time, but passed by and disappeared after passing by the parking lot. At least Qiao Liang thought so the night before, but after seeing these photos, Qiao Liang suddenly realized, Damn, it was obvious that someone deliberately arranged this and then created an illusion.

"Comrade Qiao Liang, do you know this person?" Zheng Shidong asked with a serious face.

"I don't know." Qiao Liang shook his head.

"Don't you recognize me?" Zheng Shidong raised his eyebrows and gave a wink at the staff next to him. The other party immediately put the box he brought to the table.

Then Zheng Shidong said: "Comrade Qiao Liang, look, is this box the same as the box the man carried in the photo?"

Qiao Liang compared the photos with the photos, observed them carefully for a minute or two, nodding and said, "It's the same."

"Okay, since Comrade Qiao Liang, you think it's the same, let's talk about the problem of this box. The box in front of you is just brought by the county discipline inspection inspection, and it is also the box containing money that I took out from your back car last night." Zheng Shidong looked at Qiao Liang with a stern expression, "In other words, the man following you in the photo was informed when he put the box in your car. After all, he was walking with you at that time, and there was no reason for you to not see it."

"No, Secretary Zheng, your analysis seems to be correct, but there is actually something wrong." Qiao Liang shook his head and said, "Secretary Zheng, have you ever thought that someone deliberately made two identical boxes, which gave people an illusion? Secretary Zheng, I guaranteed with my personality that I don't know the person who carried the box. Secondly, he was not with me at the time. The situation the night before yesterday was like this. After I came out of the hotel, this person suddenly followed me. When I noticed him, he passed by me with the box, and then walked through the hotel parking lot and disappeared into the street next to him. The night before yesterday I thought he was just passing by, but now I can be sure that someone deliberately arranged it, and the person who arranged it was the person who wanted to frame me behind his back..."

Qiao Liang began to tell the situation the night before yesterday. Zheng Shidong frowned slightly when he heard it. What Qiao Liang said was also possible. Moreover, from his observation of Qiao Liang's body language and facial expressions, and his understanding of Qiao Liang's past, he was sure that Qiao Liang did not lie.

After a moment of contemplation, Zheng Shidong said: "Comrade Qiao Liang, then who do you think is framed and framed you?"

"Secretary Zheng, your question will stump me. If I knew, I wouldn't have to sit here to accept your inquiries." Qiao Liang smiled helplessly. He actually had a person who was suspicious in his heart, but there was no evidence for the time being, and it would be meaningless to say it.

Hearing Qiao Liang's words, Zheng Shidong nodded slightly. From a personal perspective, he was obviously willing to believe Qiao Liang, but work is at work, Zheng Shidong cannot be favoritism and abuse of power. He must ask clearly what to ask.

Next, Zheng Shidong asked a lot of questions, Qiao Liang also answered them one by one, while the staff next to him recorded the whole process.

Before I knew it, more than half an hour passed. After Zheng Shidong asked everything he should ask, he stood up and said, "Comrade Qiao Liang, thank you for your cooperation. We will investigate your questions further, but I always believe in one sentence: Those who are clear will be clear. If Comrade Qiao Liang has no problems, you don't need to worry about our investigation."

"Secretary Zheng, I am not worried at all. Real gold is not afraid of fire. I have never done it or I have never done it. I have a clear conscience, and I believe Secretary Zheng will make an investigation impartially." Qiao Liang said.

Zheng Shidong nodded, thought for a while, then waved to the staff who were taking notes. The staff member understood, put away his notebook and turned and left the reception room.

Only Zheng Shidong and Qiao Liang were left in the reception room. Zheng Shidong suddenly smiled, no longer had the serious expression he had just now, and said to Qiao Liang: "Xiao Qiao, have you been scared by the formation just now?"

Qiao Liang was stunned for a moment, a little uncomfortable with Zheng Shidong's contrast, but after thinking about it carefully, Qiao Liang understood that if Zheng Shidong was doing business just now, then the other party is communicating with him in his private capacity.

After understanding this, Qiao Liang also felt much more relaxed and said, "Secretary Zheng, it's really okay. I'm really scared when you were so serious just now."

"Is that so? I think you are not afraid of heaven or earth." Zheng Shidong smiled and pointed at Qiao Liang, "We met face to face just now, but I didn't see you at all afraid."

"The old saying goes, I don't do bad things in normal times, and I'm not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night. Because I have a clear conscience, I'm naturally not afraid of your inquiries." Qiao Liang said with a smile.

"When it comes to this, I'm just about to talk to you." Zheng Shidong put away his smile and looked at Qiao Liang and said, "Xiao Qiao, although the investigation has not been officially released yet, I personally believe in you. Have you ever wondered why someone was going to frame you when you came to Songbei?"

"Secretary Zheng, doing work will inevitably offend people. Maybe some of the work I have just come to do has caused some dissatisfaction with some people." Qiao Liang frowned.

"If the situation is as you said, then have you reflected on it? Is your working method wrong?" Zheng Shidong said.

Zheng Shidong's words made Qiao Liang suddenly stunned. He had never thought about this problem, because what he did was never for personal gain, and he had never thought about what he had done wrong.

As if you saw Qiao Liang’s idea, Zheng Shidong said again: “Xiao Qiao, sometimes it doesn’t mean it’s right. It’s like your starting point is good, but your method is wrong, it may also lead to bad results. This is the same as doing bad things with good intentions.”

"Secretary Zheng, as you say, is it wrong to stick to principles?" Qiao Liang frowned.

"No, it's right to stick to principles, but we must also treat specific situations. We must pay attention to methods and methods according to the situation. Sometimes we must grasp both hands and both hands. Sometimes we must be hard-working with one hand and the other, and we cannot just do it." Zheng Shidong said.

Hearing Zheng Shidong's words, Qiao Liang was silent. He understood what Zheng Shidong meant. The other party did not say that he was wrong, but reminded him to pay attention to methods and strategies to avoid leaving himself in a passive manner.

"Xiao Qiao, the system is a special ecosystem. If you stay here for a long time, you will understand that many things are not simply right or wrong." Zheng Shidong said meaningfully.

"Secretary Zheng, thank you." Qiao Liang thanked him sincerely. He knew that Zheng Shidong was able to say this to him from the bottom of his heart.

"Thank you, why do I do? I just said a few more words. Just don't bother me." Zheng Shidong smiled and said, "Xiao Qiao, I am very optimistic about you and hope you can go further."

"Then you have to beat me more from now on to keep me in awe." Qiao Liang said.

"Our beating is just external force after all. The key is that you must always adhere to your principles and beliefs in your heart." Zheng Shidong smiled slightly and patted Qiao Liang on the shoulder, "We should remember four words as officials of ordinary people: never forget our original intention."

"Yes." Qiao Liangshen nodded with consent.

"Okay, let's get back to the story, let's talk about your case." Zheng Shidong became serious. "Xiao Qiao, through the situation I asked and learned just now, I believe you. As far as the current evidence is concerned, we will go to the hotel to retrieve relevant surveillance and conduct a more in-depth investigation. As you said, real gold is not afraid of fire. As long as you have no problem, others will not force the shit pot on your head. But I still want to remind you that this time someone framed you and let you avoid it. What about next time? It is easy to avoid open guns and hidden arrows, but you are here to do work. You can't get stuck with these troubles all the time, right? So I hope you pay more attention to methods in the future."

"Secretary Zheng, I understand what you said, but sometimes it's not that I want to cause trouble, but that I take the initiative to come to the door." Qiao Liang smiled bitterly.

"Well, this is indeed a problem, it depends on how you use your wisdom to resolve it." Zheng Shidong smiled, "There is a line in a movie that says very well: the most important thing about being a husband and wife is love, and the most important thing about being a county magistrate is patience. Although this is biased, there are also areas worthy of deep thought and reference."

Qiao Liang nodded silently when he heard this. Today, Zheng Shidong's conversation with him touched him a lot. Although he did not fully agree with some of Zheng Shidong's words, some of what the other party said were not unreasonable.
