In the blink of an eye, next Tuesday, after class at noon, Qiao Liang received a call from Sun Yong. He was at the gate of the party school and asked him to have lunch with him.
Recently, because they are busy with their own affairs, Qiao Liang and Sun Yong have not had much contact.
Qiao Liang went out and went to a restaurant near the school with Sun Yong. They ordered a few dishes and two bottles of beer, and ate and drank.
Qiao Liang asked Sun Yong why he was free today. Sun Yong said that Guan Xinmin led a team to the west to inspect counterpart support, and An Zhe was asked to go. An Zhe set off to gather in Huangyuan yesterday afternoon.
"When you go to inspect the west, all the top leaders from each city go there?" Qiao Liang asked.
"No, most prefectures and cities go to the mayor." Sun Yongdao.
"Then why does Jiangzhou want Secretary An to go?" Qiao Liang frowned.
"This..." Sun Yong was a little uneasy, "I guess it may be related to something."
"What's the matter?" Qiao Liang looked at Sun Yong.
Sun Yongdao: "Secretary An just left Jiangzhou yesterday, and today a joint investigation team came from above."
"What investigation team?" Qiao Liang's heart skipped a beat.
"Investigating Secretary An." Sun Yongdao.
"What? Investigate Secretary An?" Qiao Liang couldn't help but lost her voice.
Sun Yong nodded seriously.
"What are you investigating Secretary An for?" Qiao Liang composed himself.
"I don't know the specific content of the investigation. I only heard that I received a letter from above, reporting that Secretary An had problems with his work style and working methods, and the problems were not minor, so the above set up a joint investigation team to verify." Sun Yongdao.
"Asking Secretary An to inspect the west at this time is obviously to avoid him," Qiao Liang said.
"Yes, I think so too." Sun Yong nodded.
Qiao Liang frowned: "Who did this?"
When he said this, Qiao Liang remembered what Lu Qian said after being in danger that day, and couldn't help but think of Tang Shusen.
Sun Yongdao: "This investigation team must strictly keep confidentiality. However, after the investigation team arrived in Jiangzhou this morning, they directly interviewed some veteran cadres in the city."
"Veteran cadres?" Qiao Liang blinked. Could it be that those veteran cadres were responsible for this matter?
Qiao Liang first thought of Jing Haoran. Because of his treatment of Deng Jun, he must have been resentful of An Zhe. Could it be that he had collaborated with other veteran cadres to stir up this matter?
If so, then why would Jing Haoran do this at this time? Ordinarily, Anzhe's work in Jiangzhou is currently in the limelight. Isn't this the best time?
Qiao Liang couldn't help but think of Tang Shusen again. Damn it, could it be that he failed to plot against Lu Qian and shifted his target to An Zhe? But Tang Shusen directly blamed An Zhe for his weak strength, so he used some reasons to persuade Jing Haoran to take action?
At the same time, if only ordinary people reported the situation, the higher authorities might not take such big action so quickly. The higher authorities dispatched a joint investigation team to explain that they attach great importance to the identity of the person reporting the situation and the situation reported. This is not only responsible for Jiangzhou, but also for the person who reported the situation.
Responsible, but also responsible for Anzhe himself, and adopting this method to avoid Anzhe seems to be to make the investigation smoother and make the investigation results fairer and more convincing.
Thinking of this, Qiao Liang couldn't help but highly suspect that Tang Shusen instigated Jing Haoran to do this. Jing Haoran had considerable appeal among veteran cadres, so it was not difficult for him to take the lead in doing this.
At the same time, Qiao Liang also judged again that Tang Shusen had sensed the huge danger and realized that An Zhe was secretly doing something against him. He was scared and nervous, so he couldn't wait to take such action.
This made Qiao Liang feel nervous and worried. No matter whether the joint investigation team could find out anything about An Zhe, after this move, at the very least, the superiors would think that the relationship between An Zhe and Jiangzhou veteran cadres was disharmonious or even tense.
Opposite. If the top leader of a prefecture and city cannot establish a good relationship with local veteran cadres, it will obviously be detrimental to local work, and it may even mean that he or she is not suitable to continue working there.
There is a precedent in Jiangdong for top leaders to be transferred because they offended local veteran cadres. Such things are not new in other provinces.
On the one hand, Qiao Liang felt that Tang Shusen was cunning and sinister in his actions, but on the other hand, he was worried about An Zhe.
"Does Secretary An know about this?" Qiao Liang asked Sun Yong.
"This..." Sun Yong hesitated, "I haven't had time to tell him yet, maybe he doesn't know."
"As Secretary An's secretary, after you learned about this, why didn't you tell him immediately?" Qiao Liang asked.
Sun Yong was a little embarrassed: "I planned to tell him as soon as possible, but his phone has been turned off in the morning and he can't get through."
Qiao Liang thought for a while, and Anzhe's cell phone was turned off. It must have been on the plane flying from Huangyuan to the West.
"I'm sorry, brother, I blamed you wrongly." Qiao Liang apologized.
Sun Yong waved his hand: "We brothers don't need to be polite. Although I can't notify Secretary An immediately, I thought I should let you know immediately, so I came to see you."
Qiao Liang nodded appreciatively, and then said: "I wonder if Secretary An will turn on the phone now?"
Sun Yong looked at the time: "Maybe it's almost the same."
"Then let's try to defeat him again?" Qiao Liang said.
"Okay." Sun Yong nodded.
"You fight or I fight?" Qiao Liang said.
"Come here." Su Yong said.
Qiao Liang took out his cell phone and dialed, and after a moment, the call was connected.
"Secretary An, I am Xiao Qiao." Qiao Liang said hurriedly.
"Nonsense, I know it's you." An Zhe's distant and steady voice came from the phone.
"Secretary An, have you landed?" Qiao Liang said.
"That's nonsense again. How can I turn on the phone without landing?" Anzhe said bluntly.
Qiao Liang thought about it. He said two nonsense words in a row.
Qiao Liang decided not to talk nonsense and said directly: "Secretary An, Section Chief Sun and I were having dinner together. I just learned that someone in Jiangzhou reported some of your situation to the superiors. The superiors sent a joint investigation team, which arrived this morning.
Jiangzhou..."
"Well, what's wrong?" An Zhe interrupted Qiao Liang.
Qiao Liang was startled. Listening to An Zhe's tone, it seemed that he was not surprised.
"No, it's nothing. Secretary An, I think it is necessary to report this matter to you immediately." Qiao Liang said.
"Well, I understand, is there anything else?" An Zhe said.
Qiao Liang didn't know what to say for a moment. An Zhe seemed to react very calmly to this matter. Could it be that he already knew about it? Or was he expecting this?
"No, nothing happened." Qiao Liang said.
"You're okay and I have something else to do." An Zhe said, "Since you called me, let me remind you."
"Remind what?" Qiao Liang was a little confused.
"Remind you to be mentally prepared for the investigation team to talk to you." An Zhe said slowly.
Qiao Liang was stunned: "They...will still talk to me?"
"What do you think? Do you think you can escape by going to the party school to study? Do you think you have been working as a secretary with me for so long for nothing?" An Zhe said and hung up the phone.
Qiao Liang held the phone and texted for a long time, then slowly put away the phone.
Seeing Qiao Liang like this, Sun Yong blinked and said nothing.
After dinner with Sun Yong, Sun Yong went directly back to the work unit. Qiao Liang returned to the dormitory and lay on the bed, looking at the ceiling and thinking. Anzhe has rich experience in politics and has experienced many storms. He seems to have been mentally prepared for this matter.
The preparation did not show much abnormality. The reminder he gave himself was to prepare himself mentally on the one hand, and on the other hand, it seemed to be hinting to himself.
While Qiao Liang secretly made preparations for the former, he continued to think about the latter.
