Chapter 1524 Standing upright and not afraid of oblique shadows
Seeing He Qingqing's frightened look, Qiao Liang comforted him: "Don't worry, you are not afraid of slanting shadows if you are upright. In fact, I didn't go to the neighboring county at all last Friday. I have never even been to the neighboring county. Of course, you can go up." I probably didn’t go on Friday either.”
He Qingqing shook her head: "I did go to the neighboring county last Friday. My cousin's child was sick and hospitalized and needed surgery."
"Oh, you really went." Qiao Liang blinked, "Who in the work unit knows that you went to the neighboring county?"
"It's just the director. I'm worried about working overtime on weekends, so I specifically told him." He Qingqing said.
"Oh..." Qiao Liang blinked again.
He Qingqing thought for a moment: "County Magistrate Qiao, you just said that the scope of this anonymous report letter is very large and the level is very high?"
"Yes, not only all the leaders and relevant departments of the four major teams in Xizhou, but also the relevant departments and leaders in Jiangdong and Northwest Provinces have received the report letter." Qiao Liang said.
"The scope is so large and the level is so high. Obviously, many copies need to be printed or copied, and many letters need to be sent..." He Qingqing murmured.
"Yes." Qiao Liang nodded again.
He Qingqing thought for a moment, then his body suddenly trembled: "County Magistrate Qiao, I suddenly thought of something..."
"What's the matter?" Qiao Liang looked at He Qingqing.
He Qingqing then told Qiao Liang how she met Shang Ke's driver at the post office in a neighboring county last Sunday, carrying a stack of envelopes into the post office.
After listening to the information provided by He Qingqing, coupled with his own analysis just now, Qiao Liang made a clear judgment in his mind. Well, I understand.
Then Qiao Liang said to He Qingqing: "Drive--"
He Qingqing started the car and said to Qiao Liang: "County Magistrate Qiao, what did you guess?"
"More than guessing, huh -" Qiao Liang sneered.
"Then, how should I face the investigators' inquiries after returning to Liangbei?" He Qingqing said.
Qiao Liang thought for a moment: "If the investigators ask you, answer them truthfully. Don't say any extra words."
"Oh..." He Qingqing nodded.
Then Qiao Liang said again: "Remember, the relationship between you and me is purely a superior-subordinate working relationship. Even if you have any real and special thoughts about me, don't say it out."
After hearing what Qiao Liang said, He Qingqing blushed and suddenly felt a little guilty.
Seeing He Qingqing blushing, Qiao Liang seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, and said: "Maybe there have been subtle thoughts and dynamics between us, but after all, nothing really happened between us. This is an ironclad fact, so in the face of it, When questioning investigators, you should not feel guilty and be confident."
"Well, okay, okay." He Qingqing nodded while driving. For some reason, she felt a little lost amid the uneasiness.
Then Qiao Liang fell into deep thought, thinking about what Ding Xiaoyun told her about the deputy minister of the Provincial Organization Department talking to her alone, and thinking about what Ding Xiaoyun told her about the deputy minister before, and couldn't help but think about him...
After thinking for a while, Qiao Liang showed a smile on his lips.
The last turmoil left Qiao Liang confused, but this time, after a brief shock, he felt very calm at the moment.
At 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Qiao Liang and He Qingqing arrived at the county guest house, parked their car, entered the building, and went straight to the reception room on the second floor.
Walking to the door of the reception room on the second floor, a man with a crew cut in a dark suit came up to him and looked at Qiao Liang and He Qingqing: "Are you Deputy County Magistrate Qiao and Deputy Director He?"
People who work in organizations are always very strict in their speeches, and so are their titles.
Qiao Liang nodded: "Yes, I am Qiao Liang, deputy magistrate of Liangbei County."
He Qingqing also nodded: "I am He Qingqing, deputy director of the Liangbei County Government Office."
The man nodded and continued: "Deputy County Magistrate Qiao, please sit at the door for a while. Deputy Director He, please come with me."
Hearing what the man said, Qiao Liang was a little surprised. He thought he would go in first, but he didn't expect to talk to He Qingqing first.
He Qingqing glanced at Qiao Liang, who smiled at her and nodded.
He Qingqing also wanted to laugh, but was too nervous to laugh.
Then He Qingqing and the man entered the reception room. Qiao Liang sat down on a chair at the door, crossed his legs, took out a cigarette, lit it, and took two deep puffs.
The crew-cut man closed the door and came out. He saw Qiao Liang swinging his legs and smoking. He frowned and felt confused. Anyone would be extremely nervous when encountering such a disaster. How could this boy be so relaxed?
Seeing the man's expression, Qiao Liang grinned, then took out a cigarette: "Here, you can have one too."
"Thank you, I don't smoke." The man waved his hands politely and sat down on the chair next to him.
"Oh, okay then." Qiao Liang put the cigarette into his pocket, took two more puffs, then turned to look at the man, "from the Xizhou Organization Department?"
"No, from the province." The man said.
"Oh, it turns out it's the leader of the province. I'm disrespectful." Qiao Lianggong handed over his hand.
The man looked at Qiao Liang: "Deputy County Magistrate Qiao, although this is my first time meeting you, I already know your name."
"Haha..." Qiao Liang laughed, "That's not surprising. Because of what happened to me, you were not the only one who wanted to know my name."
The man looked at Qiao Liang and said with a serious smile: "Deputy County Magistrate Qiao, among the cadres from Jiangdong who came to the northwest to take up posts, you are the most... the most..."
The man couldn't think of what words to use to express what he meant.
Qiao Liang took over: "I am the one who can make trouble the most and cause trouble to the organization and leaders, right?"
Hearing what Qiao Liang said, the man couldn't help but want to laugh, but he held it back and nodded: "Maybe."
"Leader, do you think this is a good thing or a bad thing?" Qiao Liang looked at him seriously.
The man frowned: "Do you think this is a good thing?"
Qiao Liang said slowly: "Everything cannot be generalized. Whether it is a good thing or a bad thing, I think it should depend on who stands and what standpoint."
"What about your personal standpoint?" the man asked.
"From my personal standpoint..." Qiao Liang took another puff of cigarette, "Well, sometimes I think it's a bad thing, but sometimes, I think it's a good thing."
"When did you think it was a bad thing?" the man asked curiously.
"Of course it's when I was tortured to death." Qiao Liang said simply.
"Then when do you think it's a good thing?" the man asked again.
Qiao Liang grinned: "Of course it's time for my grievances to be cleared, and it can also attract the attention of the provincial leaders. At my level, it is not easy to get the attention of the leaders. Do you think so?"
The man blinked, and it seemed that what this kid said made sense, but this time, I don't know if he is really innocent, and I don't know if he can get away easily.
But regardless of whether he is innocent or can get away easily, it is true that he once again attracted the attention of the leaders of the two provinces.
At this time, the man's cell phone rang, and he walked aside to answer the phone.
Qiao Liang finished smoking a cigarette, stood up and moved his body, then walked back and forth in the corridor, paying attention to the door of the reception room from time to time.
After answering the phone, the man returned to sit at the door of the reception room.
After a long time, the door of the reception room opened, He Qingqing came out, and Qiao Liang walked over.
"Is the conversation over?" Qiao Liang looked at He Qingqing.
At this time, the expression on He Qingqing's face didn't look very nervous, but she wasn't relaxed either. She nodded to Qiao Liang: "Well, the conversation is over."
"Then it's my turn next." Qiao Liang looked at the crew-cut man, "I'll go in by myself."
The man ignored Qiao Liang, then opened the door of the reception room, went in and said, "Deputy County Magistrate Qiao is here."
"Okay, let him in." The deputy minister's voice came from inside.
The man then nodded to Qiao Liang: "Deputy County Magistrate Qiao, please come in -"
Qiao Liang smiled at the man: "I have to come in even if you don't invite me."
The man was slightly startled. This boy did not look nervous at all.
Then Qiao Liang went in and the man closed the door.
After Qiao Liang entered, he saw several people sitting on the sofa in front of the reception room. The deputy minister from the province was sitting in the middle, the director of the provincial temporary office was sitting on the left, the deputy minister of the municipal organization department was sitting on the right, and two others Sit on both sides.
Qiao Liang consciously sat on the sofa opposite them and looked at them. At this time, except for the deputy minister of the province who looked a little leisurely, everyone else had serious expressions on their faces.
Qiao Liang bared his teeth at the deputy minister of the province, and then he laughed: "Comrade Qiao Liang, we met again not long ago."
"Yes, I'm very happy to see you. How are you recently? Is your work going well?" Qiao Liang said.
"Everything is fine with me. Thank you Comrade Qiao Liang for your concern." said the vice minister.
"The leader is too polite. As a subordinate, you should care about the leader." Qiao Liang said.
"Comrade Qiao Liang, are your work and health okay now?" the deputy minister asked.
"Okay, very good. Thank you for your concern, the leader." Qiao Liang said.
"Haha, Comrade Qiao Liang is too polite. As a superior, you should care about your subordinates." The deputy minister imitated Qiao Liang's tone just now and said with a smile.
Qiao Liang couldn't help but laugh.
Listening to their conversation, everyone else couldn't help but frown. Damn, this is not a serious organizational conversation. It's clearly old acquaintances greeting each other. Qiao Liang looked a little presumptuous, and the deputy minister looked a little weird.
The deputy minister looked at everyone and then said to Qiao Liang: "Comrade Qiao Liang, actually I don't want to see you this time, but I can't help it."
"Oh, since there is no other way, then let's do it the other way around." Qiao Liang said.
"Well, okay." The deputy minister nodded and continued, "Comrade Qiao Liang, this time I brought the provincial and municipal joint investigation team here with the relevant instructions from the relevant leaders regarding certain matters about you. Let me ask you a few questions."
"Okay, please ask the leader." Qiao Liang nodded.
"Comrade Qiao Liang, the relevant departments and leaders of Jiangdong Province and Northwest Province, as well as all the leaders and deputy leaders of the four major teams of Xizhou City and relevant departments, have received a letter of report about your life style during your tenure in Liangbei. Regarding this matter , what do you personally think?" the deputy minister asked.
Qiao Liang said: "As a member of the organization, as the deputy county magistrate from Jiangdong to Liangbei, I accept the investigation of me by the organization and the supervision of me by the masses with a frank and correct attitude. Since so many departments and leaders have received Regarding the reflection on my life style, it is necessary for the organization to conduct an investigation. As for what I personally think, it is not important. The key lies in whether the organization's investigation can be realistic and fair."
Upon hearing Qiao Liang's words, everyone except the deputy minister frowned again. Damn, this guy is so brave. He dared to say that. It seems that he doesn't trust the investigation team.
Everyone looked at the deputy minister, thinking that he would be unhappy. Unexpectedly, he laughed: "Comrade Qiao Liang, don't worry about this. Regardless of whether you can answer our questions truthfully, I will ensure that the investigation is factual and fair."
.”
Qiao Liang also laughed: "I feel relieved when the leader says this, and you can rest assured, I promise to answer all questions truthfully, and I will never put the shit basin on my head."
The deputy minister nodded: "Okay, let me ask you, do you think you have any problems with your life style?"
