The investigation team divided into two groups and began to conduct a secret investigation on Pei Junying, the executive deputy county magistrate of Lin'an County, based on some clues that had been obtained. Among the people who came down this time were many business backbones from the Discipline Inspection and Supervision Office Three, including experts in solving crimes.
Sun Jiaxiao, therefore, Zhou Jing did not worry about the investigation of the case. The investigation and evidence collection work was proceeding in an orderly manner and progressed smoothly without any obstacles. Lin An did not seem to be aware of the entry of the investigation team. However, a few days later
, the situation suddenly changed.
Zhou Jing was sitting in the multi-functional conference room on the ninth floor of the hotel, listening to a work report. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Zhou Jing turned around and shouted, "Please come in." Zhang Qiaolan came in stunned and walked quickly to Zhou Jing's side.
, bent down and whispered: "Deputy Director Zhou, the waiter at the front desk said that Deputy County Magistrate Pei's secretary called and said that he would be here later to meet with the leaders of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection."
Zhou Jing was stunned for a moment, then raised his brows, put the signature pen on the information, picked up the cup, took a sip of tea, looked around, glanced at the faces of several key people, and said softly: "The most worrying situation has arisen.
Okay, where did the problem go, did you alert the enemy?"
Several people around the conference table looked at each other, a little at a loss. Sun Jiaxiao held a cigarette in his hand, frowned and smoked it. After a long while, he shook the information in his hand and said softly: "Director, we are only doing peripheral activities at the moment. Logically speaking,
It shouldn’t have alerted them!”
Everyone around them also nodded, with a look of self-blame on their faces. In fact, these days, everyone has deliberately slowed down the progress in order to keep confidentiality, fearing that they would be negligent and be noticed by the other party, which would cause unnecessary trouble.
Unexpectedly, he was still discovered.
Zhou Jing put down the tea cup, packed up the information, and sighed: "Okay, today's meeting ends here. Everyone will continue to visit and investigate according to the scheduled plan. However, since it has been discovered, don't procrastinate and try your best.
Speed up the progress and take a multi-pronged approach!”
"Okay, Deputy Director Zhou!" Everyone replied in unison, stood up, packed their things and left.
Zhou Jing walked behind, called Zhang Qiaolan, frowned and said: "Qiaolan, go get ready, and go to my room later to receive Deputy County Magistrate Pei together."
Zhang Qiaolan hummed and whispered: "Deputy Director Zhou, do you want to record and record?"
Zhou Jing pondered for a moment, then smiled and said: "Put the recording equipment in a clear place to give him some psychological pressure, but if he doesn't use it, he should be polite first and then attack!"
"Okay, got it!" Zhang Qiaolan smiled slightly and turned back to the room.
Zhou Jing stood at the window of the corridor, lit a cigarette, frowned and started to smoke. After a short while, he saw a domestic car slowly drive over and stop steadily at the door. Then, a thin figure appeared.
A middle-aged man with a handsome face appeared in sight. Although he was far away, he could still feel that this man had a very good temperament, and there was an elegant and capable atmosphere between his eyebrows.
Zhou Jing smiled slightly, put out the cigarette, and turned back to the bedroom. As a cadre of the Discipline Inspection Commission, if you want to suppress the subject of investigation, you should maintain a higher posture and be condescending. One of the advantages of doing so is that it is easier to defeat
The other party's will to resist, otherwise, the other party will mistakenly think that they are still in a safe state at this moment, and the psychological defense line will become invisible and stronger, which will increase the difficulty of solving the case.
As soon as he sat down, Zhang Qiaolan also knocked on the door and came in. He placed all the auxiliary tools commonly used by the Discipline Inspection Commission in handling cases on a prominent position on the coffee table. He made two more cups of tea and put everything away. There was also a knock on the door outside. When the sound rang, she raised her hand to straighten her appearance, then went to open the door, smiled at the middle-aged man in front of her, and said politely: "Hello, County Magistrate Pei, please sit inside!"
"Okay, okay!" Pei Junying handed the bag to the secretary, entered the room, and was a little surprised when he saw Zhou Jing coming over. He quickly quickened his pace, walked a few steps quickly, handed it over first, and said with a sweet smile: "Hello, Director Zhou. , I’ve heard about your reputation for a long time, but I didn’t expect you to be such a young talent!”
Zhou Jing smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to make a greeting gesture, and said calmly: "County Magistrate Pei, you are so polite. You are so powerful. Just a few days after we arrived, you already alerted the county leaders. I'm really surprised. !”
Pei Junying chuckled, pursed his lips slightly, and said nonchalantly: "This is normal. How old is Lin An? Provincial leaders come to inspect the work. We local cadres always come to visit and show our friendship as landlords. Why don't we How dare you neglect your guests."
"County Magistrate Pei, I'm serious, please sit down." Zhou Jing smiled, asked Pei Junjie to sit on the sofa, and said with a smile: "Please have tea!"
After hearing this, Pei Junying's lips twitched slightly, and his expression seemed a little unnatural, especially when his eyes fell on the coffee table, the small tape recorder, and several provincial discipline inspection committee inquiry transcript forms, his eyes became more and more dull, and he stared at After looking at the form for a long time, he put the tea cup to his mouth, took a sip, and said with a smile: "This tea is good, it tastes very good."
Zhou Jing smiled slightly and asked casually, "What does it smell like?"
Pei Junying put down the cup and said with great confidence: "It's like Zen tea in a temple!"
Zhou Jing was a little surprised, and couldn't help but frown slightly, glanced at him, and said with a smile: "County Magistrate Pei is not simple, he is really well-informed!"
Pei Junying breathed a sigh of relief, his expression softened a lot, and he smiled and said: "Thank you, Director Zhou. When I led the team to the south for inspection, I once went to a temple and met a highly respected Zen master. I was lucky enough to taste it. The Zen tea in the temple is still fresh in my memory!”
Zhou Jing smiled and said softly: "That's right. I don't know much about tea ceremony. I don't know how to tell the difference."
Pei Junying took out a cigarette, handed it to Zhou Jing, and said with a smile: "Actually, Zen tea is also very simple. It is tea grown and collected by monks. It is mainly used to offer sacrifices to Buddha, entertain guests, drink by yourself or make friends. It is exquisite. It’s like Zen tea, you have to experience it with your heart to feel it.”
Zhou Jing took the cigarette, took a look at it, and saw that it was a very ordinary Honghe cigarette. It tasted a little bit, so he took out a lighter and rushed to help Pei Junying light the cigarette. He also lit one, took a deep breath, and smiled. : "County Magistrate Pei is really wise and his speech is very Zen-like."
Pei Junying was very happy, with a smug look on his face. He took a puff of cigarette and said with a smile: "Director Zhou, to tell you the truth, I am usually very busy at work and don't have many hobbies. In my free time, I like to After reading some secretaries, I was very fond of Zen. This Zen tea spirit emphasizes integrity, purity, harmony and elegance. This is the same principle as being an official. You must be upright in body, pure in mind, peaceful and elegant in order to be a good public servant of the people. Realize the life ideal of serving as an official and benefiting one party."
After Zhou Jing heard this, he couldn't help but secretly said that he was surprised. No wonder County Magistrate Pei was able to do well in the local area, outperforming even smart and capable people like Wang Yannian. I'm afraid this was not just the powerful Pei family.
The reason is that within a few minutes of the two meeting each other, I was already impressed by the other person's manner of speaking and appearance, and actually had a very natural liking for him. This is a very strong personality charm.
Pei Junying is also an extremely intelligent person. When he saw Zhou Jing's expression, he guessed it, and he felt happy. After taking a sip of tea, he continued to talk about it, from the Eightfold Path of Buddhism, to the pure mind, to the
Liu Hejing, like a lotus flower blooming in his mouth, spoke incessantly, not only impressed Zhou Jing, but even Zhang Qiaolan, who had been silent next to him, was also deeply attracted. He held his face in his hands and listened in rapt attention.
After a long while, Zhou Jing smiled slightly, picked up the purple clay pot, refilled the tea, and said in an understatement: "County Magistrate Pei, in fact, this tea is Wudang Taoist tea given by a friend, but Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism complement each other and complement each other, and the Zen you talked about
Tea, it should be about the same, right?"
After hearing this, Pei Junying's face changed slightly. His eyes fell on the forms on the coffee table. As if he realized something, he put away his smile and nodded: "Yes, the tea ceremonies are all the same. Director Zhou, I think
, whether you are a high-ranking official or ordinary people, you can understand the truth from drinking tea. The most important thing is to have a normal heart and regard fame and fortune as nothing, so that you can stick to your duties and make fewer mistakes.
.”
Zhou Jing smiled, shook his head and said: "County Magistrate Pei, I cannot agree with this. I have a different opinion!"
Pei Junying put down the tea cup, handed over another cigarette, and said with a smile: "No problem, Director Zhou. It's normal to have different opinions. We can discuss it with each other!"
Zhou Jing smiled slightly, took the cigarette, and said slowly and calmly: "After all, we are not monks or hermits, but officials who eat from the public family. As you said, we must serve as an official for one term and benefit the whole country.
, you need to be courageous, and more importantly, motivated, you should be proactive and take making achievements as your own responsibility, is this the truth, right?"
Pei Junying looked embarrassed, rubbed his hands and said, "Yes, Director Zhou, you are right, but this is not contradictory. Buddhism also talks about being brave and diligent."
Zhou Jing chuckled, raised his finger and pointed at his head, and said softly: "Yes, but as leading cadres, we should pay more attention to party discipline and state laws. This is our rule and commandment, and it is also a mantra on our heads. We must have a sense of awe.
That’s it!”
Pei Junying was in awe and said with a smile: "Director Zhou, you have real insights. I will definitely learn from your lessons and correct my shortcomings in time."
Zhou Jing felt that chatting with him was very speculative, so he smiled and said: "It's not that serious. County Magistrate Pei, when we came here this time, we saw that the economic construction here is excellent and the results are remarkable. This is all like County Magistrate Pei."
The result of hard work and conscientiousness of such a doer cannot be denied. The rest cannot be determined until the results of the investigation are released."
Pei Junying smiled, feeling that an opportunity had come, and sighed, using this topic to say: "Director Zhou, your words really speak to my heart. They say that starting a business is difficult, and keeping a business is even harder. What we have here is
The vast majority of cadres are dedicated and dedicated to serving the public good, but if they try to do things with their hands free, they will always offend some people, and now, there are already people hiding in the dark and firing cold arrows!"
Zhou Jing picked up the cup and smiled: "Is it that serious?"
Pei Junying nodded and whispered: "I won't go into detail. In the first half of this year, Comrade Jian Min, the secretary of the county party committee, received more than a dozen report envelopes. We have also communicated and we all believe that someone is deliberately causing trouble behind the scenes and pointing the finger.
Me and several other cadres."
As he spoke, he opened the briefcase he carried with him, took out a few reporting letters, put them gently on the table, stared into Zhou Jing's eyes, and said word for word: "These reporting letters were all reported to Secretary Jian.
, and it has been transferred back, I will hand it over to you now. If necessary, please get to the bottom of it and clear my name, Pei Junying."
Zhou Jing frowned slightly, his eyes fell on the report letters, he pondered for a long time, then nodded and said: "Don't worry, I will!"
