Qiao Liang thought for a moment: "I don't think so. It's normal for Minister Chu to call you."
"Why do you think he called me?" Xu Honggang asked next.
"It should be today."
"Do you think he just found out about this, or has he known it for a long time?" Xu Honggang asked again.
Qiao Liang couldn't help but feel nervous, and suddenly realized that Xu Honggang was testing or testing him. Did he know that Chu Heng was the matchmaker between him and Zhang Mei?
Thinking about it, it was impossible, so he said: "I think that Minister Tang went to inspect the radio and television system. Although they didn't notify the ministry about such a big thing, the people in the ministry should know about it soon."
"Then do you think Minister Chu will know before today?" Xu Honggang pressed forward step by step.
"I can't guess this. Only Minister Chu himself knows it." Qiao Liang said vaguely, and couldn't help but reach out to wipe the sweat on his forehead.
Xu Honggang smiled slightly, put out the cigarette butt, then stood up and walked back and forth a few steps with his hands behind his back, then stopped in front of the window, looked at the dark night outside the window, was silent for a moment, and said to himself: "Okay, very good, let the storm
Come more violently."
Qiao Liang looked at Xu Honggang and couldn't figure out what he meant. Did he still think Tang Shusen's behavior was not enough? Or did he feel that Tang Shusen's attack had given him a reason and excuse to fight back in the next step?
Qiao Liang clearly felt that in the face of Tang Shusen's aggressive offensive, Xu Honggang would definitely prepare a counterattack, but it was not yet known when the counterattack would start, in what way it would be carried out, and where he would break through.
And in the struggle between Tang Shusen and Xu Honggang, what role will a little guy like himself play? Will he take advantage of the situation to make progress, or will he become a victim?
Thinking of the former, Qiao Liang didn't have any confidence.
Thinking of the latter, Qiao Liang felt sad again.
At this time, Qiao Liang would not have thought that it was he, an insignificant person, who would later stir up the entire Jiangzhou officialdom and cause a huge tremor in Jiangzhou officialdom.
Of course, this process is full of thrilling deceitful plots and bloody contests of conspiracy.
This is something for later.
At dawn the next morning, Xu Honggang knocked on the door of Qiao Liang's room and asked Qiao Liang to go out for morning exercises.
The two went downstairs and walked along the road and sidewalk in front of the hotel.
In the early morning in Beijing, the air is very good and the sun is rising slowly.
As he walked, Xu Honggang said: "Minister Tang Da is inspecting, and the editor-in-chief of Wen Da will definitely arrange for reporters to focus on the report. Take a look at today's newspaper."
Qiao Liang took out his mobile phone and opened the electronic version of Jiangzhou Daily. Sure enough, he saw the news about Tang Shusen, which made the headlines on every page.
Qiao Liang read it to Xu Honggang.
Sure enough, Jiangzhou Daily gave a large-scale report on Tang Shusen's inspection yesterday. In the news, Tang Shusen pointed out that the previous party building and organizational construction of the radio and television system were very good, which is inseparable from the efforts of the former party leadership of the Radio, Film and Television Bureau.
Open. Nowadays, the party building and organizational building of the radio and television system are slack and slack. This shows that the leadership of the party group of the bureau is ineffective, and it is also related to the current general environment of the propaganda system...
Tang Shusen's speech not only hit the bureau party group headed by Yuan Lizhi, but also pointed at the ministry and Xu Honggang without naming them.
After listening to Qiao Liang's reading, Xu Honggang nodded: "The Minister of Tang Dynasty clearly understood everything, and the editor-in-chief of Wenda University did a good job in reporting it."
Obviously, Xu Honggang's words were sarcastic.
"It's too much for Minister Tang to say this, and it's wrong for Mr. Wen to arrange the reports this way. Minister Tang's news reporting level is almost on par with Mayor Wu," Qiao Liang said directly.
Xu Honggang snorted, then took out his cell phone and called Chu Heng: "Minister Chu, I drank too much last night. I just woke up and saw your call reminder. Is something okay?"
Then Xu Honggang kept nodding: "Oh, uh-huh, okay, Minister Tang inspected our propaganda system, which shows the old minister's love and concern for the propaganda system. I was very touched. When I go back to see Minister Tang, I must thank him in person.
.In response to Minister Tang’s instructions and requirements during the inspection, you immediately organized all units of the propaganda system to implement them conscientiously, and held a symposium for in-depth discussion..."
Listening to Xu Honggang's words, Qiao Liang wanted to laugh but couldn't.
After calling Chu Heng, Xu Honggang looked at Qiao Liang: "You have always had a good relationship with Minister Chu, right?"
Qiao Liang was stunned. He didn't expect Xu Honggang to suddenly ask this.
"Minister Xu, I..." Qiao Liang stuttered for a moment, a little flustered.
"Minister Chu is the matchmaker between you and Xiao Zhang. Your two families have a close personal relationship, right?" Xu Honggang looked at Qiao Liang with a half-smile.
Qiao Liang became nervous: "Minister Xu, you, how did you know?"
"I'm telling you, don't be surprised." Xu Honggang said slowly, "Brother Youwei told me a few days ago."
"Ah, Secretary Li? He, he told you?" Qiao Liang was surprised. Because he was worried that Li Youwei would think too much, he had been hiding this matter from Li Youwei, but he actually knew about it before he arrived, and even told Xu Honggang.
Xu Honggang said meaningfully: "Xiao Qiao, there is no airtight wall in the world. If you want others not to know, you have to do nothing yourself. In fact, brother Youwei has known about this for a long time. He knew it as soon as you and Xiao Zhang got married, but he kept pretending.
Just deaf and dumb."
"Ah -" Qiao Liang couldn't help but lost his voice. Li Youwei had known about this for a long time, but he had never revealed any trace in front of him for such a long time.
Qiao Liang couldn't help but feel embarrassed and flustered.
Xu Honggang patted Qiao Liang on the shoulder: "Although Brother Youwei has known about this for a long time, he has always been very kind to you and always cared about you. Do you know why?"
Qiao Liang looked at Xu Honggang confused: "Why?"
Xu Honggang said word by word: "Trust, he believes that you will never betray him at any time, no matter what happens."
Qiao Liang was instantly moved and felt ashamed.
"Brother Youwei really did not see the wrong person. After his accident, your performance perfectly verified this. This shows that Brother Youwei has a very accurate vision of people. I have to learn from him on this point."
Qiao Liang looked at Xu Honggang blankly, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Xu Honggang continued: "Although I know this now, you don't need to feel any pressure or burden. I think there is no contradiction between your relationship with Minister Chu and your loyalty to me. In other words,
By the way, no matter how good your relationship with Minister Chu is, it will not shake my trust in you."
Qiao Liang looked at Xu Honggang as if he didn't understand: "Minister Xu, why do you say that?"
"Because I believe in my own vision and my own judgment." Xu Honggang had a confident expression on his face.
Qiao Liang actually felt that Xu Honggang's confidence also came from his position and from Li Youwei's evaluation of himself in front of him.
At this time, Xu Honggang suddenly opened the plate, which caught Qiao Liang off guard and wondered what Xu Honggang's intention was.
Xu Honggang continued: "Xiao Qiao, don't let me talk about this suddenly today. You will have to consciously keep a distance from Minister Chu in the future. This is not what I want to see."
"Then what do you want to see?" Qiao Liang murmured.
"I hope to see everything remain as usual." Xu Honggang said simply.
