Qiao Liang did not want to believe that what Ye Xinyi said was true. He also had a pure heart and interacted with people based on his true temperament rather than caring about utilitarianism. Therefore, Qiao Liang would rather think of others like him, but
Reality is often not so beautiful.
At this time, Ye Xinyi said again: "I have heard something about the situation. Secretary Miao has been actively moving closer to Secretary Luo."
"Really?" Qiao Liang was dumbfounded.
"So, the misunderstanding between you two is only a secondary reason. The main reason is that people want to distance themselves from you. Think about it, if Secretary An is still in Jiangzhou, no matter how big the misunderstanding between you two is, it will not be possible.
Like today, don't you think so?" Ye Xinyi said again.
"Maybe." Qiao Liang's expression darkened. He was reluctant to believe that what Ye Xinyi said was the truth, but his reason told him that Ye Xinyi was right. The reality is so cruel.
The two went upstairs and each went to their own rooms first.
As soon as he entered the room, Qiao Liang's cell phone rang and a text message came in. Qiao Liang picked it up and read it. It was a message sent to him by Jiang Xiuxiu. Jiang Xiuxiu explained in the message why it was inconvenient to say hello just now, and also said
I'm going to see him tonight.
Seeing Jiang Xiuxiu's message, Qiao Liang felt a lot more relieved, and then replied to Jiang Xiuxiu, telling him not to come over. Qiao Liang was worried that with Miao Peilong's current prejudice against him, once Miao Peilong knew that Jiang Xiuxiu came alone
He could not guarantee that Miao Peilong would not vent his anger on Jiang Xiuxiu. After all, there were many people in this Songbei County hotel, so who could guarantee that there would be no informers.
On the other end of the phone, Jiang Xiuxiu felt a little disappointed when she saw that Qiao Liang wouldn't let her go. She hadn't seen Qiao Liang since Qiao Liang went to Liangbei for a temporary job. Speaking of which, the two of them hadn't seen each other for almost half a year. Jiang Xiuxiu missed it in her heart.
Qiao Liang, although she chose to return to her family for compelling reasons, she always pretended to be Qiao Liang in her heart. She and her husband always slept in separate rooms, and the two only maintained a nominal relationship as husband and wife.
Jiang Xiuxiu was so happy to see Qiao Liang unexpectedly in the hotel today. If it weren't for the inconvenience, Jiang Xiuxiu would have loved to fly into Qiao Liang's arms.
The two chatted for a while through text messages. When Qiao Liang asked Jiang Xiuxiu, he found out that this morning, Miao Peilong and Sheng Peng went to the County Commission for Discipline Inspection to attend the year-end integrity review meeting of the County Commission for Discipline Inspection and listen to the work report of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. After the meeting in the morning,
Miao Peilong and Sheng Peng went to the county hotel for dinner with several key officials of the County Commission for Discipline Inspection, which is why they met Qiao Liang by chance.
The chat between the two ended when Ye Xinyi came over. Ye Xinyi entered Qiao Liang's room and said worriedly: "Qiao Liang, I just heard the hotel attendant in the corridor saying that because of the heavy snow on the road, the passenger transportation from the county to the city has stopped.
The buses have stopped, so we won’t be able to get back to the city, right?”
"No, there is no shuttle bus. Let's just take a taxi back. At worst, if we pay more, there will always be a driver willing to take us back. Who doesn't love money, don't you think so?" Qiao Liang said.
"This is the only way." Ye Xinyi frowned, she was really worried that she wouldn't be able to go back.
"Let's go have a meal, and stop by downstairs later to ask if there is any taxi driver willing to go to Jiangzhou," Qiao Liang said.
When Qiao Liang and Ye Xinyi went to have lunch, at this moment, in the Northwest Province, Liu Changxing's office, the deputy minister who Liu Changxing had handed over in the morning hurried in to report urgently: "Minister, there is sudden news from the Jiangdong Province Temporary Office, about Qiao
Liang’s temporary term remains unchanged and he will not be recalled.”
"What?" Liu Changxing had just tidied up his desk and was in a good mood getting ready to get off work. When he suddenly heard the news, he was stunned.
The deputy minister had to repeat what he just said again. Liu Changxing frowned and murmured: "How could this happen?"
"I don't know." The deputy minister shook his head.
Liu Changxing looked up at the deputy minister and asked in disbelief: "Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
"That's right, it's absolutely true." the deputy minister confirmed.
Hearing this, Liu Changxing had expressions of disappointment and annoyance on his face. After a while, Liu Changxing waved to the deputy minister: "I understand, you can go out first."
Upon hearing this, the deputy minister nodded, exited first, and gently closed the door of Liu Changxing's office. However, the moment the door was closed, the corners of the deputy minister's mouth were slightly raised, with a faint smile.
Liu Changxing was walking around the office irritably with his hands behind his back. How could something happen to Qiao Liang again for no reason? Liu Changxing was puzzled. Could it be that Liao Gufeng knew about it in advance? But it was impossible, unless Liao Gufeng was always there.
He is paying attention to Qiao Liang's affairs, and the possibility of that is very slim. Liao Gufeng is the boss of the province and has so many major things to worry about. How can he spend so much attention on Qiao Liang?
After thinking for a long time, Liu Changxing decided to call Luo Fei personally.
Liu Changxing had Luo Fei's number in his cell phone, and now Liu Changxing dialed it directly.
Over in Jiangzhou City, Luo Fei, who rushed back to Jiangzhou yesterday, was having lunch at the moment. When he saw Liu Changxing's call, Luo Fei's eyes lit up and he answered with a smile on his face: "Hello, Minister Liu."
"Mayor Luo, oh, no, we should call him Secretary Luo now." Liu Changxing chuckled. He was still a little concerned about Jiangdong's situation and knew that Luo Fei had been promoted from being the host.
"Minister Liu is joking, you can call me whatever you want," Luo Fei said with a smile.
"Secretary Luo, what's going on with Qiao Liang?" Liu Changxing didn't want to chat with Luo Fei and asked directly.
"What's going on?" Luo Fei didn't react for a moment.
"Secretary Luo, according to the news I just learned, your Jiangdong Provincial Post Office has stopped the process of recalling Qiao Liang. What happened in the meantime?" Liu Changxing asked.
"Is this happening? It's impossible, right?" Luo Fei was surprised and said quickly, "Minister Liu, did you make a mistake?"
"That's not wrong." Liu Changxing confirmed.
"Then I'll call and ask about the situation." Luo Fei said quickly. At this moment, he was also anxious. He had obviously taken care of the matter, so how could something happen again?
After Luo Fei hung up the phone, he personally called the director of the Provincial Temporary Post Office. When the call was connected, Luo Fei hurriedly asked: "Director Cao, I want to know what happened with that Qiao Liang. I heard that you have already
Stopped Qiao Liang’s recall process?”
"That's right, Secretary Luo, I was just about to tell you about this, but I didn't expect you to call me so soon." Director Cao over there said.
"Director Cao, ending Qiao Liang's temporary term early is a decision made by Jiangzhou out of overall considerations. Qiao Liang, as a temporary cadre from Jiangzhou, has tarnished the image of our Jiangzhou cadres. For this reason,
After thinking about it, we will take the initiative to propose to the Temporary Post Office to recall Qiao Liang in advance and end his temporary post. How can your Temporary Post Office make changes without authorization?" Luo Fei said angrily.
"Secretary Luo, I don't want to either. Qiao Liang is a cadre of your Jiangzhou. Of course I respect your Jiangzhou's wishes, but this happened for a reason and I can't change it." Director Cao was also aggrieved.
"Everything happens for a reason?" Luo Fei frowned, "What's the reason?"
"Secretary Luo, you don't know. Secretary Zheng, who is new to the province, personally inquired about this matter and gave instructions, so our temporary office can only follow Secretary Zheng's instructions." Director Cao explained.
"Ah! You said Secretary Zheng asked about this matter?" Luo Fei's eyes widened, he was frightened by the other party's words.
"That's right, Secretary Zheng gave verbal instructions, otherwise why would we have changed your city's decision without authorization," Director Cao said.
After hearing the other party's affirmative reply, Luo Fei was a little distracted. He was so frightened by the news that his mind went blank.
After a while, Luo Fei slowly came back to his senses. He didn't even pay attention to what Director Cao said over there and hung up the phone blankly.
Luo Fei was puzzled at the moment. Even if he broke his head, he still couldn't figure out why the new Secretary Zheng Guohong would ask about this matter?
By the way, he had to call Liu Changxing quickly to vent his anger. Luo Fei remembered that Liu Changxing was still waiting for news from him, so he hurriedly called Liu Changxing again.
"Minister Liu, I have already asked the matter clearly." Luo Fei said bitterly when the call was connected.
"What exactly happened?" Liu Changxing asked quickly.
"The newly appointed Secretary Zheng of our province has personally dealt with Qiao Liang's matter, so there is no way for us to end Qiao Liang's temporary term early." Luo Fei said helplessly.
"Your newly appointed Secretary Zheng Guohong in Jiangdong?" Liu Changxing was also stunned when he heard the news.
"That's right." Luo Fei nodded.
Liu Changxing couldn't help but be stunned. This answer was something he would never have thought of. How could a mere Qiao Liang, a deputy director-level cadre, attract the attention of Zheng Guohong, a newly appointed secretary?
Liu Changxing thought quickly. Soon, Liu Changxing was shocked. Could it be...
Liu Changxing thought of a possibility, that is, this matter was Liao Gufeng's greeting to Zheng Guohong. Only in this way can it be explained. But if this is really the case... Liu Changxing did not dare to think about it any further. He was extremely scared when he thought about it. The more Liu Changxing thought about it, the more he became confused.
Frightened.
In the provincial compound, Cai Wenrui, who is responsible for the provincial discipline inspection and supervision work, rushed to Liao Gufeng's office at the last moment before getting off work at noon.
"Secretary Liao, will it affect your get off work?" Cai Wenrui said with a smile after sitting down.
"Comrade Wen Rui, you've already been here, isn't it too late to say this now? If you are really afraid of affecting my get off work, just wait until the afternoon to come back." Liao Gufeng said with a smile.
"Haha, it's not that Secretary Liao gave relevant instructions on Wang Shikuan's matter yesterday. I happened to have something to report about Wang Shikuan to Secretary Liao, so I just came back from a meeting in Beijing and rushed to you as soon as possible.
Yes." Cai Wenrui laughed.
"The results are available so soon?" Liao Gufeng smiled slightly.
"Actually, we have received a lot of reports about Wang Shikuan before. I gave instructions at that time and asked the investigators to secretly investigate based on the relevant reporting clues. We already have certain evidence. Those photos that were exposed online yesterday,
It just happened to be a meeting, and Secretary Liao happened to give instructions on this matter, so I just came over to report to you." Cai Wenrui explained.
"Well, you say." Liao Gufeng nodded.
Upon hearing this, Cai Wenrui's face became serious, he sat upright and began to report to Liao Gufeng.
