Jiang Xiuxiu thought for a moment and asked Xu Honggang, "Secretary Xu, are you going to take Xu Chan away, or is it someone from the city inspection who wants to take her away?"
Xu Honggang was startled. Damn, he was confused when he heard Qiao Liang's name. He obviously made a slip of the tongue. Now when Jiang Xiuxiu asked, Xu Honggang was really confused.
Xu Honggang changed his mind and said, "Just hand the person over to the city inspector."
"Secretary Xu, when did you care so much about the city inspection work? You even came to help the city inspection officials personally." Jiang Xiuxiu asked with a smile.
"Jiang Jian, are you questioning me?" Xu Honggang said displeased.
"Secretary Xu, that's not what I meant, I just think it's strange." Jiang Xiuxiu said.
"Then don't waste time, go through the handover procedures as soon as possible and hand the person over to Director Kong and the others." Xu Honggang waved his hand.
"Secretary Xu, the municipal inspection does not have the corresponding document procedures, so we really can't hand over the person." Jiang Xiuxiu shook her head.
"We'll have to complete the formalities later. Director Kong and the others can't run away. Are you worried that you won't be able to find them?" Xu Honggang looked impatient.
"Secretary Xu, this is really not possible." Jiang Xiuxiu still refused.
"Can't you even guarantee me?" Xu Honggang said with twinkling eyes.
Xu Honggang's idea at this moment was that as long as he could take the person away first, he could refuse to admit his debt later. Anyway, the guarantee he said was empty talk. If Jiang Xiuxiu asked him to leave any written proof, then he would never be able to do so. Promised.
But Jiang Xiuxiu obviously didn't want to let him go. Even if Xu Honggang said so, Jiang Xiuxiu still shook her head, "Secretary Xu, this is not feasible in terms of work procedures. It has nothing to do with whether you guarantee or not."
"Jiang Jian, I came to you in person, why don't you even give me face?" Xu Honggang said with an ugly expression.
"Secretary Xu, I really can't take charge of this. Otherwise, I'll give County Magistrate Qiao a call." Jiang Xiuxiu glanced at Xu Honggang, and without waiting for Xu Honggang's reply, she went straight outside to make a call.
Xu Honggang's face darkened. It was too late to stop him. The key was that he had no suitable reason to stop him. He had no choice but to inform Qiao Liang. But seeing things getting further and further away from the original plan, Xu Honggang felt a little worried. sink.
Outside the door, Jiang Xiuxiu called Qiao Liang. What happened today was too abnormal. Jiang Xiuxiu felt tremendous pressure when she faced Xu Honggang directly. She could only inform Qiao Liang quickly. Moreover, the more urgent Xu Honggang's attitude became, the more Jiang Xiuxiu became. The more she suspected that there was something wrong here, but she couldn't figure out the reason for the moment.
When the call was connected, Jiang Xiuxiu ignored the greetings with Qiao Liang and took the time to say, "County Magistrate Qiao, Secretary Xu and the people from the city inspection are here now. They want to take Director Xu away..."
Jiang Xiuxiu then briefly and concisely explained the situation to Qiao Liang. Qiao Liang had just met with Cai Jiasheng, the county organization director, and when he heard that Xu Honggang had gone to the county inspection again, his expression condensed and he said seriously, "Xiuxiu, don't let them. Take them away, I'll be there right away."
"Okay, then I'll wait for you to come over, and I'll hold you there first." Jiang Xiuxiu nodded.
Jiang Xiuxiu hung up the phone, turned around and walked back to the office. Seeing Xu Honggang staring at her, Jiang Xiuxiu said, "Secretary Xu, County Magistrate Qiao will be here soon."
Hearing that Qiao Liang was coming, Xu Honggang nodded expressionlessly. Although Xu Honggang had a bad instinct in his heart, he did not show it on his face.
Director Kong on the side exchanged glances with Xu Honggang and remained silent as well. He had tried his best on this matter today. If he couldn't take the person away, it would be none of his business, and Xu Honggang owed him. A promise, after all, he couldn't help Xu Honggang do such a risky thing today in vain.
Qiao Liang came very quickly. When he saw Xu Honggang after entering the door, Qiao Liang smiled calmly and said, "Secretary Xu, why are you here today? We didn't notify the county in advance. Look, we have neglected you."
"I'm not here on official business today, Xiao Qiao, you don't have to be so polite." Xu Honggang glanced at Qiao Liang and said calmly.
"It's not official business? Secretary Xu, are you doing private business?" Qiao Liang chuckled and said tactfully, "Secretary Xu, is it possible that your private business is for Director Xu's case..."
"Xiao Qiao, it's good that you know some things well." Xu Honggang looked coldly, "Since you are here, please give me a happy word. Can Xu Chan be taken away by us?"
"This..." Qiao Liang looked like he was considering it, and continued to smile, "Secretary Xu, this matter... seems... not easy to handle..."
"Xiao Qiao, do you have to make your words clear?" Xu Honggang looked sharp. At this moment, he didn't want to talk nonsense to Qiao Liang at all.
Seeing Xu Honggang's expression and hearing that Xu Honggang's tone was very impatient, Qiao Liang took a deep breath and said, "Secretary Xu, Xu Chan's case is being handled by our county prosecutor. It is indeed inconvenient for you to take her away. I hope Secretary Xu can understand... …”
Although Qiao Liang's tone was very tactful, it also showed a bit of unquestionability.
Xu Honggang was silent for a moment, looking sharply at Qiao Liang, at his old subordinates, at the old subordinates he had supported and cultivated.
Faced with Xu Honggang's gaze, Qiao Liang did not shy away. Although his eyes looked at Xu Honggang with respect, there was also an indescribable determination.
"Xiao Qiao, it seems that you insist on doing this? It seems that you will never give me this face?" Xu Honggang said coldly.
Qiao Liang was silent for a moment, "Secretary Xu, this is a business matter. Since it is a business matter, it can only be handled by the public. Also, when it comes to certain regulations, we can only stick to the principles..."
"A good businessman, County Magistrate Qiao, I hope you can always be a good cadre who adheres to principles." Xu Honggang had a sullen face, gave Qiao Liang a cold look, and walked away.
Qiao Liang looked at Xu Honggang's back and sighed heavily in his heart. Although he and Xu Honggang had been at odds with each other before, at least they still maintained a superficial harmony. Xu Honggang would often pretend to call him "little". Qiao, now Xu Honggang directly calls him County Magistrate Qiao. Qiao Liang knows that after today's experience, the two of them are basically at odds.
Thinking of the past between herself and Xu Honggang, thinking of Xu Honggang's support and cultivation for her, and thinking of Xu Honggang's tall image in her heart, Qiao Liang felt very disappointed, lost, sad and helpless.
As soon as Xu Honggang left, Director Kong and others from the city inspection also left. After the group came down from upstairs, Director Kong followed Xu Honggang and asked quietly, "Secretary Xu, is this the matter?"
"Once Qiao Liang comes, we can't take him away." Xu Honggang looked annoyed. Qiao Liang had worked with him for a while, and he had some understanding of Qiao Liang's style and temper. When Jiang Xiuxiu wanted to inform Qiao Liang, , he knew that this matter was basically out of the question today. Sure enough, Qiao Liang was like a stone in the pit, smelly and hard.
When Director Kong heard that Xu Honggang was about to give up, he grinned and said, "Secretary Xu, since the matter has not been completed, let's... go back first?"
"Yes." Xu Honggang nodded, glanced at Director Kong, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work today. Don't worry, I will remember everything I said."
Xu Honggang's words were obviously telling the other party that he remembered the promise he made to the other party. After hearing this, Director Kong showed an elated smile on his face, "Secretary Xu, if you have anything to do, call me again. I will take people back." .”
Director Kong left first. Xu Hong just got into his car and did not leave immediately. Instead, he took out his mobile phone and called Su Huaxin. The other party was still waiting for his results.
The phone was connected, and Su Huaxin's slightly deep voice came over, "Hong Gang, how did things go?"
"Senior brother, this Qiao Liang is so ignorant that he will not let him go until his death." Xu Honggang smiled bitterly, "I am now outside the gate of Songbei County Inspection. Originally, I thought of a way today. If the plan goes well, I can release Xu Honggang. Chan took it away, but it still fell short..."
Xu Honggang then reported his plan for today in detail to Su Huaxin. He didn't want Su Huaxin to feel that he didn't even have this ability. Although the matter didn't get done, he also wanted to let Su Huaxin know that he tried his best and thought of a way. , so as not to affect Su Huaxin’s impression of him.
Su Huaxin's eyes darkened after hearing Xu Honggang's words. Xu Honggang had done this job, and he obviously had nothing to criticize. However, Su Huaxin's anger became more and more intense towards Qiao Liang in Xu Honggang's words.
Xu Hong just heard that Su Huaxin remained silent. He wanted to show his positive performance in front of Su Huaxin, so he said again, "Brother, this method won't work. I have another method, but in that case, Xu Chan may be affected. "
"Tell me and listen." Su Huaxin said.
"Brother, I heard you talk about Director Xu's involvement in the case before. Her problem is not particularly serious. As long as she takes the initiative to return the 300,000 in cash and the house, the Songbei County Prosecutor's Office will regard her as a proactive If she surrenders, she can strive for a lighter punishment. Of course, in her case, she may have to be dismissed from public office in the end, but as long as she is okay, this may be the best result." Xu Honggang said.
"If we can really get Xiao Xu out, then the result is not unacceptable. I'm afraid that Qiao Liang you are talking about will do something bad again." Su Huaxin frowned. After this incident, he had a deeper understanding of Qiao Liang. impression.
"Brother, I have a way to do this. Qiao Liang has an old leader named Li Youwei. Qiao Liang respects him very much, and Li Youwei and I are also very good friends. I can go to him and ask him to come forward and follow up. If Qiao Liang communicates, Qiao Liang should give him face." Xu Honggang said.
"According to what you say, why don't you just go to that Li Youwei and ask him to try to get Qiao Liang to suppress the case?" Su Huaxin said.
"Senior brother, it would be difficult to do that. Based on my understanding of Qiao Liang, he might compromise appropriately, but it would be impossible for him to completely abandon his principles." Xu Honggang explained.
