Xu Honggang on the side looked at the scene in front of him, and his heart went crazy with jealousy. Why is this kid Qiao Liang so lucky that he always gets the appreciation and love of the big leaders? On the other hand, he himself has worked hard to climb the line of Su Huaxin. , if Su Huaxin hadn't happened to be transferred to Jiangdong Province, he would still be in a marginalized position in the city, let alone become the mayor... Comparing the situations of the two, it really echoes the old saying, People are more infuriating than others.
Xu Honggang stood silently. The depression in his heart made him not even want to speak. He could only stand beside Zheng Guohong with a smiling face. Xu Honggang suddenly regretted that he should not have rushed to curry favor with Zheng Guohong. He was just causing trouble for himself. , Zheng Guohong will not look at him with admiration just because he came to show his courtesy today, and Zheng Guohong came to visit Qiao Liang in a purely private capacity this time, without notifying the city. In addition, it is also the New Year holiday, so he can completely ignore it. know this.
Qiao Liang saw Xu Honggang's reaction in his eyes. At this time, Qiao Liang did not want to take the initiative to irritate Xu Honggang. No matter how much care and love Liao Gufeng had for him, Liao Gufeng was far in the northwest and was still too far away from him in the future. While working in Jiangzhou City, Xu Honggang had a greater influence on him. Knowing that Xu Honggang was extremely dissatisfied with him, Qiao Liang thought that he had better not provoke him again.
Zheng Guohong and Qiao Liang were chatting, mainly because they were concerned about Qiao Liang's injury. As for whether there was another secret behind Qiao Liang's car accident, Zheng Guohong didn't mention it much. He had asked the provincial department to intervene in the investigation and would wait until the detailed results came out. In the past, Zheng Guohong would not express his opinions easily. He could be more casual when communicating with Liao Gufeng in private, but in public, Zheng Guohong was obviously more cautious in his speech.
After Zheng Guohong stayed in Qiao Liang's ward for a while, Wu Huiwen and other key officials from the county also came after hearing the news. Because the ward was too crowded, some people could only stand in the corridor outside.
Zheng Guohong did not stay in Qiao Liang's ward for too long. After telling Qiao Liang to have a good rest, he left the ward.
Zheng Guohong knew very well that if he did not leave, it would affect Qiao Liang's rest. With so many cadres from the city and county coming together, it would be strange for Qiao Liang to have a good rest.
When Qiao Liang saw that Zheng Guohong was leaving, he stood up and wanted to see him off. Liao Gufeng saw it and immediately said, "Okay, just lie down and have a good rest. I will see off Comrade Guohong."
"That's right, Comrade Xiao Qiao, you are a patient now, so stop showing off." Zheng Guohong said with a smile.
Qiao Liang gave up after hearing this. He was still hanging on his drip, and it was indeed inconvenient for him to get up.
Zheng Guohong went out, followed by Wu Huiwen, Xu Honggang and others. Zheng Guohong smiled, "Comrade Huiwen, Comrade Hong Gang, you are busy with your business, so you don't need to accompany me. My trip here is not on official business, so don't worry about me."
"Secretary Zheng, it doesn't matter. When you come, our city must prepare a good reception." Xu Honggang said before Wu Huiwen could.
"I said, this trip is not official, so there is no need to arrange a reception." Zheng Guohong smiled and waved his hand, and said, "If you have nothing to do, go back and spend time with your family. It is rare to celebrate the New Year, and there are only a few comfortable holidays in a year."
When Zheng Guohong said this, Wu Huiwen, Xu Honggang and others could no longer follow him. Zheng Guohong's intention was clearly that he didn't want them to follow him. It was impossible for them not to have such a sharp eye.
Liao Gufeng accompanied Zheng Guohong downstairs. He looked back and saw Xu Honggang at the front. Liao Gufeng suddenly asked, "Comrade Guohong, what is your evaluation of Xu Honggang?"
"I'm not very impressed. He was recommended and promoted by Comrade Huaxin. I really don't know much about him. I only know that he, like Comrade Huaxin, came from Jiangdong Normal University," Zheng Guohong said.
"It seems that after Comrade Huaxin was transferred to Jiangdong, he spared no effort to support his alumni." Liao Gufeng said with a smile.
Zheng Guohong smiled slightly after hearing this. Su Huaxin had his own selfish motives and small calculations. Zheng Guohong knew this very well, but as long as Su Huaxin didn't go too far, Zheng Guohong would not interfere too much. After all, Su Huaxin was the third-in-command in the province. , the attitude and tendency of the other party is extremely important in the overt and covert struggle between him and Guan Xinmin. Even if Zheng Guohong does not take the initiative to win over Su Huaxin, he must ensure that Su Huaxin will not fall to Guan Xinmin's side.
"Comrade Gu Feng, from your tone, what do you think of Xu Honggang?" Zheng Guohong glanced at Liao Gufeng.
"I can't talk about opinions. When I was still working in Jiangdong, Xu Honggang was just the propaganda minister of Jiangzhou, and he was not qualified for me to pay special attention to it." Liao Gufeng said calmly.
Zheng Guohong nodded after hearing this. He felt that Liao Gufeng should have some opinions on Xu Honggang, but Liao Gufeng seemed to disdain talking behind his back. This was normal. In their position, Xu Honggang's level was not high enough.
The two walked downstairs while chatting. Liao Gufeng was about to send Zheng Guohong to the car. Zheng Guohong said quickly, "Comrade Gu Feng, stay. We will meet again in Huangyuan in two days. I will be with Comrade Anzhe then."
"Okay." Liao Gufeng smiled and nodded.
The two looked at each other, and there was a tacit understanding in their eyes. Last night, the two of them talked about it at almost 12 o'clock. No one knew what they were talking about, but their long conversation could affect many people. Qiao Liang did not expect that the fate of a small person like himself would also be profoundly affected by this conversation.
In the upstairs corridor, Xu Honggang watched Liao Gufeng and Zheng Guohong go downstairs, and then left from the passage on the other side without even saying hello to Wu Huiwen.
Xu Honggang really regretted this hurried trip to Sanjiang. He had known that he might as well have stayed in the city drinking last night. Damn it, he rushed to Sanjiang all night, but ended up feeling lonely. Last night he arrived When he arrived in Sanjiang, Zheng Guohong was no longer in the hospital, so he had no choice but to give up. He was the first to get in front of Zheng Guohong in the morning, but he didn't see much of a smile from Zheng Guohong.
Seeing Xu Hong just left without saying a word, Wu Huiwen frowned and didn't bother to pay attention. After sending the county officials away, Wu Huiwen returned to Qiao Liang's ward, pulled up the chair in front of the hospital bed and sat down, and asked curiously, " When did Secretary Zheng come here?"
"She should have arrived last night, otherwise she would not have appeared in the hospital so early in the morning." Qiao Liang said his guess, "Secretary Liao came with him just now. It is estimated that Secretary Zheng arrived in Sanjiang last night. Maybe I’ll meet Secretary Liao first.”
"Oh." Wu Huiwen nodded and said, "Mayor Xu came very quickly today."
"That's right, Mayor Xu was the first one to come here today, almost behind Secretary Zheng." Qiao Liang showed a playful smile on his face, "I feel that Mayor Xu has a lot of eyeliners inside and outside the hospital."
"Regardless of whether it's true or not, it doesn't have much to do with you if you focus on taking care of your illness." Wu Huiwen said calmly.
"Of course I can only concentrate on recuperating, otherwise what can I do as an injured patient?" Qiao Liang blinked.
"I see you can still talk nonsense." Wu Huiwen said with a smile.
While the two were talking, outside the door, Liao Gufeng, who had sent Zheng Guohong off, came to Qiao Liang's ward again.
Seeing Liao Gufeng come in, Wu Huiwen quickly stood up and said respectfully, "Secretary Liao."
"Sit." Liao Gufeng smiled.
city.
Guan Zhitao, who had been sitting in the study all night, his eyes were bloodshot at this time. He picked up the phone, hesitated for a long time, gritted his teeth and called Jiang Shengchen.
"Zhitao, what's the matter?" On the other end of the phone, Jiang Shengchen, who had been drunk last night, hadn't gotten up yet. Seeing Guan Zhitao's call, Jiang Shengchen asked sleepily.
"Secretary Jiang, I want to go to the disciplinary department and surrender." Guan Zhitao said in a hoarse voice.
"What did you say?" Jiang Shengchen sat up from the bed, completely sleepless.
"Secretary Jiang, Chen Dingzhong was arrested, and it was someone from the provincial department who arrested him," Guan Zhitao said with a bitter smile.
"What does Chen Dingzhong's arrest have to do with you surrendering to the police? Aren't you playing the piano randomly?" Jiang Shengchen said angrily.
"Secretary Jiang, I feel that Chen Dingzhong's matter will definitely involve me. If I take the initiative to surrender now, I might be able to get a good result." Guan Zhitao said his thoughts.
"You..." Jiang Shengchen was speechless and thought for a while, "I can't explain it clearly on the phone. Let's come out and talk."
After Jiang Shengchen finished speaking, he hung up the phone and cursed in his heart: "Fuck me, this year has been really bad."
Jiang Shengchen and Guan Zhitao made an appointment to meet at the hotel. After getting up and washing up, Jiang Shengchen came to the hotel.
Guan Zhitao had already arrived one step ahead. When Jiang Shengchen entered the door, he saw Guan Zhitao sitting in the box smoking.
"Zhitao, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Shengchen looked at Guan Zhitao, who looked haggard, and frowned.
"Secretary Jiang, I'm afraid I'm in danger this time." Guan Zhitao said with a bitter face.
"Is it that serious? Don't scare yourself." Jiang Shengchen curled his lips. Guan Zhitao had a shortcoming, that is, he was timid and indecisive in doing things. In the years when Jiang Shengchen and Guan Zhitao worked together, I have known it for a long time.
"Secretary Jiang, I have a lot of financial dealings with Chen Dingzhong. If Chen Dingzhong is arrested, I will definitely be implicated." Guan Zhitao told the truth. When it came to this matter, there was no need for him to hide it from Jiang Shengchen.
"Chen Dingzhong was arrested this time because of Qiao Liang's car accident. It has nothing to do with his relationship with you. If you rush to surrender, aren't you looking for trouble?" Jiang Shengchen said disapprovingly.
"Secretary Jiang, the trap Chen Dingzhong created this time is too big, and I will definitely be implicated." Guan Zhitao looked bitter.
"This is all your own thinking. Things haven't reached that point yet. Why are you jumping into the fire pit in a hurry?" Jiang Shengchen also took out a cigarette. Guan Zhitao next to him saw this and quickly came over to help Jiang Shengchen light the fire. .
Jiang Shengchen took a deep breath, blew out a string of smoke rings, and then asked, "When was Chen Dingzhong arrested?"
"Yesterday, no, it should have been the day before yesterday. He was arrested in the middle of the night the day before yesterday. The provincial department issued an order to arrest the person from Songbei County Bureau." Guan Zhitao said.
When Jiang Shengchen heard this, he couldn't help but glance at Guan Zhitao. This was really a slap in the face. He turned out to be the person arrested by the Songbei County Bureau.
"Your county bureau arrested people and didn't report them to you?" Jiang Shengchen asked.
