After receiving the good news, in an instant, all the haze in Xue Xiang's world disappeared, and the sun rose in the east, shining for thousands of miles.
Because he was thinking about his three children at home and had not returned home all night last night, he no longer wanted to stay in the local government any longer, so he immediately said goodbye to Zhou Mingfang.
Zhou Mingfang thought that he was so proud that he wanted to go back and show off. He was amused in his heart, but he did not stop him or lecture him! After all, there is no time for anyone to get carried away with his pride, let alone young people who have grown too old. Life is full of passion.
.
Xue Xiang opened the door and was about to take a step when he suddenly saw someone in front of the door. He was about thirty years old, fair-faced and beardless, dressed like a cadre. His face looked very familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him before.
The white-faced young man was full of surprise. He actually stretched out his hand first and said with a smile: "County Magistrate Xue, you are here to say goodbye. It's a pleasure to meet you. I'll say goodbye to Liaoyang, but
After more than a year, you, County Magistrate Xue, spread your wings and flew thousands of miles, and actually made such a big difference in Xiaoshan, I admire you so much!"
Hearing his words, Xue Xiang's mind raced and he immediately remembered who this was. He quickly took the white-faced young man's hand and held it, "It's Secretary Chen. Nice to meet you!"
This white-faced young man is Feng Jing’s secretary Chen Botao. When Xue Xiang first arrived in Liaoyang, he met this person once in Feng Jing’s office. In his memory, Chen Botao was a cold-faced person. Today, they met again in a different place, but
There is a lot of enthusiasm.
At this time, Zhou Mingfang also walked over and said with a smile: "Secretary Chen is here, come in quickly, come in..."
Chen Botao held Xue Xiang's hand but did not let go. He turned to Zhou Mingfang and said: "Commissioner Zhou, Minister Feng heard that you are an excellent chess player. He happened to have this hobby, so he asked me to come over and see you.
Are you busy? If not, just ask Fang if it would be convenient for you to go over and play a game of chess with Minister Feng."
Although Chen Botao is a secretary, he is the secretary of the provincial party committee boss. He is a division-level cadre. Although he is half a level below Zhou Mingfang, he is still a close minister of the boss. When talking to Zhou Mingfang, there is no need for honorifics. However, although this person is not
Although he used the honorific title, his words were worded in a low-key manner, modest and polite, which truly showed his ability.
The leader wanted his subordinates to accompany him to play chess, and his closeness was clearly revealed. At this moment, the subordinates, not to mention having trouble, would have to go even if there was a knife from the sky. Zhou Ming was square on the outside and round on the inside. Naturally, he knew the way to advance and retreat. He laughed.
He said a few words of modesty about his poor chess skills, but he responded simply and neatly.
"It's better to meet by chance than to invite you. County Magistrate Xue, since we have met, let's go together. Minister Feng came to Huayuan, but he is still thinking about you."
After inviting Zhou Mingfang, Chen Botao actually extended an invitation to Xue Xiang.
Zhou Mingfang's eyes flashed brightly, and he glanced at Xue Xiang, but he was thinking about it in his heart. He wondered whether Minister Feng passed by Huayuan by chance, but came here intentionally. Now it seems that there is no research on Liangang City.
I'm afraid it was also for the purpose of raiding Huayuan and setting up an ambush.
How else could there be such a coincidence in the world?
The more Zhou Mingfang thought about it, the more he felt that Minister Feng had come here in a special way. Because now Secretary Chen came to the door and invited him to play chess with Minister Feng. It was so sudden. Zhou Mingfang thought to himself that he could only play chess with him.
It is said that he has a rough understanding of chess, but when it comes to chess skills, the team
Zhang Lijun and Hong Dao are both middle-level masters. Instead of looking for them, they look for themselves. Isn't this inexplicable? What's more, Hong Dao is the direct subordinate of Minister Feng, and he and Minister Feng have only met each other a few times.
, I can’t afford to be so close to you.
At this moment, as soon as Chen Botao invited Xue Xiang out of his mouth, Zhou Mingbang understood completely. Minister Feng's invitation to him was a lie, but the invitation to Xue Xiang was real! Otherwise, Chen Botao, a secretary, would never have met someone by chance even if he was close to Feng Jing.
He privately invited someone to see Feng Jing. After all, the leader’s secretary had never heard of it.
Zhou Mingfang suddenly understood. It seemed that Minister Feng not only had a thorough understanding of Huayuan's internal affairs, but he even found out about Xue Xiang's situation in advance. He was really thoughtful!
After thinking about this, Zhou Mingfang began to think about Xue Xiang's origin. At this moment, no matter how dull he was, he would not be indifferent to the origin of a deputy county magistrate who made the provincial party committee organization director so troubled.
Of course, Zhou Mingfang was also thinking about it, but he never thought that he had to find out Xue Xiang's background. After all, he, Zhou Mingfang, was mellow and well-organized, so he would never see him as a yameni with a background.
So he pounced on him. In terms of character, he can be regarded as a gentleman in the party.
Besides, Zhou Mingfang is an official with good manners and is well versed in advancement, retreat, and maneuvering. He naturally knows how to deal with and handle the relationship with Xue Xiang. In his opinion, it is better not to see who is standing behind Xue Xiang than to dig out who is standing behind Xue Xiang.
No matter what, he continued to get along with Xue Xiang in such a relaxed and harmonious manner.
After all, the current relationship between him and Xue Xiang was a bit like Bole and Qianlima getting to know each other. It would be best to just let nature take its course and settle the relationship naturally.
At this moment, what Zhou Mingfang thought of, Xue Xiang naturally thought of as well. After all, he and Feng Jing had been in contact for a long time. It was extremely abnormal for Feng Jing to condescend to meet him at Li Tieshan's door that day. Now, again
When he was in the most difficult situation, he suddenly killed himself and solved his hangover. All these things are called coincidences, and there are probably too many coincidences in the world.
…………
When Xue Xiang met Feng Jing, Feng Jing was much more depressed than the last time they met. Xue Xiang vaguely remembered Feng Jing a year ago, with his face full of red and majestic, giving people a great sense of pressure. Today's Minister Feng is two
His temples were stained with frost, and his smooth forehead actually had two deep wrinkles. It seemed that Minister Feng had been having a hard time this past year!
Feng Jing seemed to have really invited Zhou Mingfang to play chess. After Xue Xiang and Zhou Mingfang entered the room, the man stood up, shook hands briefly, and then began to talk about how to play chess. Soon, Chen Botao came up with a
When the red chessboard came, Zhou Mingfang and Zhou Mingfang separated the guests and hosts and started fighting in the Chu River and Han Dynasties. Xue Xiang and Chen Botao each sat on one side and watched intently.
After watching and playing for about ten minutes, Xue Xiang lost interest in watching chess and instead became interested in watching people. Because Feng Jing's chess skills were obviously not at the level that a chess enthusiast should have. Of course, this does not mean that chess enthusiasts are
must
You have to be a master of chess. Su Dongpo said, "You are happy when you win and you are happy when you lose." Although this is his mentality when playing chess, it also implies the helplessness of Su Shi, a top artistic genius who is proficient in music, calligraphy, and painting. That is
Not good at chess.
Su Shi was indeed good at chess but not good at chess, which was a regret in his life! Even if a genius like Su Shi was like this, Xue Xiang would not doubt Feng Jing's status as a chess enthusiast because of his poor chess skills.
But Feng Jing's chess game is just like that of a chess beginner, who can't even tell the difference between the other horses' legs in chess.
Several times, Zhou Mingfang worked hard to pin the legs of Minister Feng's horse, but Minister Feng actually ignored him, raised his hand, and stepped on Zhou Mingfang's undercover car. Zhou Mingfang's eyebrows almost flew off in shock.
When he came out of his eyes, Chen Botao on the other side was even flushed with suppressed emotions, but he didn't know how to explain it in words. He could only watch Minister Feng triumphantly holding the car he had just eaten and turning it around in his hands.
Show off.
To put it into detail, Zhou Mingfang's chess skills are also very mediocre, slightly higher than Feng Jing's. However, Feng Jing has an invincible horse, which often drives Zhou Mingfang's rooks around. With this increase and one decrease, the two of them have become
The match was evenly matched, and Feng Jing was so excited that he really became a chess enthusiast.
The two played three sets, but Feng Jing relied on his horse's hooves to win two sets and win.
Ten minutes after the two started the game, Xue Xiang's mind was not on chess at all. He was repeatedly wondering what Feng Jing meant by repeatedly showing good intentions. Even if Feng Jing knew his identity, there was no need to be so conceited.
Demoting his status, in a sense, it is impossible for a high-ranking official like Feng Jing to have no one behind him. To say the least, even if Feng Jing intends to show favor to the Xue family, there is no need to work so hard and laboriously, it would be too obvious.
, lost the dignity of a provincial official.
After three rounds, Xue Xiang still couldn't figure out the reason, but Feng Jing raised his watch. It was obvious that the leader was about to see off the guests.
Zhou Mingfang understood, smiled and exchanged a few words, then stood up to leave. Feng Jing smiled and sent the two of them out. From the beginning to the end, except when Xue Xiang came in, Feng Jing asked Xue Xiang a few words in Xiaoshan like an elder.
He asked Xue Xiang about the work situation in the county, and after a few words of encouragement, he never spoke to Xue Xiang again.
At this time, not only Xue Xiang, who had already walked out the door, was a little confused, but Chen Botao inside the room was also confused.
When the two of them walked out, Chen Botao walked a few steps, closed the door, turned back, and bowed: "Boss, why did you just let Xue Xiang go?"
Chen Botao and Feng Jing have an extremely secret relationship by marriage. In terms of seniority, Feng Jing is Chen Botao's uncle. Therefore, Chen Botao is much more relaxed in front of Feng Jing than an ordinary secretary.
"If you don't let me go, why don't you let me have dinner? We just met like this, and I don't know how many people are staring at me secretly. If we really have another meal, wouldn't those people's eyes be opened?" said
After that, Feng Jing patted Chen Botao on the shoulder again: "Okay, I know what you mean, don't worry, that County Magistrate Xue definitely has the heart of a crystal monkey, and he will figure it out sooner or later!"
Feng Jing stood in front of the window, staring into the sky, his voice was light, but there was no emotion in it.
To be honest, at this moment, Chen Botao admired Feng Jing's determination very much!
Because the current situation in Feng Jing is really bad, at the Seventh Plenary Session of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China just held, Mr. Ji has already pointed out that there are three types of people to be eliminated from the ** ranks: those who are rebels, those with serious gang ideas, and those who smash, smash and loot.
There was originally talk of clearing up the three types of people. More than a year ago, the central government began to blow the wind. At that time, Chen Botao thought that it was just blowing the wind, which would only serve as a deterrent and reduce obstacles to the reform. After all, if we really want to clean up, we will have to fall.
There are countless people, but the central government may not be able to do it.
But from then on, Feng Jing began to worry and start planning. Now that Ji Lao spoke at the plenary meeting, the matter was settled. In this way, Feng Jing's plan for a rainy day was so foresight.!!!
