Out of such considerations, Xiao Yuanyuan led people downstairs to welcome Qiao Liang's arrival.
What Qiao Liang saw when he came over was Xiao Yuanyuan greeting him downstairs. As soon as the car stopped, Xiao Yuanyuan came up to him with a smile on his face and said, "Welcome Secretary Qiao to the Municipal Bureau to inspect and guide the work."
When Qiao Liang heard Xiao Yuanyuan's words, he squinted at him and said, "Director Xiao, I don't dare to be an inspection guide. I'm afraid I don't have the qualifications."
Xiao Yuanyuan smiled and said, "What did Secretary Qiao say? You are the leader. We welcome you to inspect and provide guidance at any time."
It was impossible to find anything wrong with Xiao Yuanyuan's attitude. Qiao Liang could only respond with a smile, reaching out to avoid hitting the smiling person. He came here not to quarrel with Xiao Yuanyuan, but to try to change Xiao Yuanyuan's side. Regarding Zhong Liyang's disciplinary opinions, as long as the municipal bureau changes its attitude, Qiao Liang believes that Guo Xing'an will not say anything.
Qiao Liang had no intention of making excuses with Xiao Yuanyuan and said, "Director Xiao, let's talk alone?"
Xiao Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Okay."
The two came to Xiao Yuanyuan's office. Xiao Yuanyuan enthusiastically poured a glass of water for Qiao Liang. Then he sat down on the floor of Qiao Liang and asked, knowingly, "Secretary Qiao, what do you want to talk about?"
Qiao Liang looked at Xiao Yuanyuan and said, "Director Xiao, I think you can guess my purpose."
Xiao Yuanyuan pretended to be confused and glanced at Qiao Liang uncertainly, "Secretary Qiao, are you here because of Zhong Liyang's matter?"
What the heck, he is such a drama queen! Qiao Liang raised his eyebrows. He was already very dissatisfied with Xiao Yuanyuan because he was disturbed last time when Cai Minghai was transferred. At this moment, he directly gave Xiao Yuanyuan a two-word evaluation: hypocrisy.
Condensing his emotions, Qiao Liang said, "Director Xiao, I did come here because of Zhong Liyang's matter. I hope Director Xiao will carefully consider the handling opinions of the Municipal Bureau. Regarding the details of the incident, further investigation is also needed. I would not recommend making such a hasty decision."
Hearing this, Xiao Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Secretary Qiao, don't worry, I'll have someone bring the surveillance camera over to you and you'll have a more intuitive understanding of the matter."
After Xiao Yuanyuan finished speaking, he called the secretary in and asked the secretary to send in the surveillance camera.
In just a short while, Xiao Yuanyuan's secretary came in with the surveillance camera and opened it on the computer.
"Secretary Qiao, please come over and have a look." Xiao Yuanyuan made a gesture of invitation.
Qiao Liang glanced at Xiao Yuanyuan. Zhong Liyang had actually told him the cause and process of the incident very clearly, but he really didn't know if there was any discrepancy between the surveillance video and what Zhong Liyang said. He might as well take a look.
Qiao Liang stood up and came to the computer. After Xiao remotely pressed the play button, he started to read it carefully.
Xiao Yuanyuan watched calmly from the side. The surveillance video about the fight between Zhong Liyang and Hou Ming was not long. It only took two or three minutes to watch. After the surveillance video played to the end, Xiao Yuanyuan took the initiative and said, "Qiao Shu" Remember, you also saw that Zhong Liyang beat him until his face was covered in blood. Last night Hou Ming went to the hospital to have his injuries examined, and it was confirmed that he had a broken nose. He cannot come to work today."
Qiao Liang frowned and said, "Director Xiao, from the surveillance, it is clear that Hou Ming first splashed water on Zhong Liyang's face and made a gesture of taking action, and then Zhong Liyang fought back. This is not inconsistent with Zhong Liyang's description of the matter. The main thing is The fault does not lie with Zhong Liyang."
Xiao Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Secretary Qiao, regardless of who is the main fault in this matter, if the two of them started fighting at the city bureau meeting, would the impact be extremely bad? Although Hou Ming made some inappropriate body movements first, Zhong Liyang fought Are you right? Although in the end it was Hou Ming who suffered the loss and nothing happened to Zhong Liyang, we did not spare Hou Ming just because he was injured. On this matter, our bureau chief reached a consensus after discussion My opinion is that no one is biased."
"This does not mean that whoever was injured is justified. The cause of the matter was Hou Ming's deliberate provocation. There is no problem in punishing him, but it would be unfair for you to give the same punishment to Zhong Liyang." Qiao Liang retorted.
"Secretary Qiao, I know you want to protect Zhong Liyang, but this is the disciplinary opinion made by our bureau chief and cannot be changed. I am afraid that this matter will disappoint you, Secretary Qiao. I hope that Secretary Qiao will not blame you. "Xiao Yuanyuan said with an apologetic look.
Qiao Liang stared at the municipal bureau director Xiao Yuanyuan in front of him. The other person seemed to be very polite and maintained an obvious respect for him, but he was soft and hard at the same time, making it clear that he did not want to give in.
"Director Xiao, are you really unable to accommodate Zhong Liyang?" Qiao Liang said with a sullen face.
"Secretary Qiao, please forgive me. Zhong Liyang's incident may not seem like a big deal, but it happened at the city bureau meeting, with everyone watching from top to bottom. If we don't give him severe punishment, what do you think is the dignity of our bureau? I think Qiao As a leader, the secretary should be able to understand." Xiao Yuanyuan said sincerely.
Qiao Liang stared at Xiao Yuanyuan, and a fire surged up in his heart. Damn, this guy talks about being a leader. He always calls him "you". Rather than respecting him, it's more like teasing him and deliberately making remarks. He set it up.
"Secretary Qiao, I know you may be unhappy, but if you think about it, Secretary Qiao, you will definitely understand our difficulties." Xiao Yuanyuan said again.
"Director Xiao, I really can't understand it." Qiao Liang gave Xiao Yuanyuan a meaningful look, "I hope Director Xiao doesn't have any selfish motives in this matter."
After saying that, Qiao Liang stood up and left. The purpose of coming to the city bureau this time was considered a failure. After the initial remote contact with Xiao, Qiao Liang had already labeled him as 'hypocritical', 'smiling tiger', etc., but he just let Xiao What Qiao Liang was wondering about was what kind of identity Xiao Yuanyuan played in this matter. Was it simply to sell the favor of Song Jindi, the executive deputy mayor, or was there someone else behind Xiao Yuanyuan?
The reason why Qiao Liang had such suspicion was because after contacting Xiao Yuanyuan, he had a vague feeling that this matter was not that simple.
This may be regarded as Qiao Liang's only gain from this trip.
After leaving the city bureau, Qiao Liang went directly to the hotel and waited. Not long after he sat down in the box, Qiao Liang's cell phone rang. Seeing that it was Guo Xing'an calling, Qiao Liang immediately picked up the call.
"Xiao Qiao, where are you now? Let's have lunch together." Guo Xingan said with a smile on the other end of the phone.
Qiao Liang didn't expect that Guo Xing'an would still remember this matter. He thought that Guo Xing'an just said it casually. He had already made an appointment with Zhang Shengyi. Naturally, he couldn't have dinner with Guo Xing'an at noon, so he had to find another place. The reason was, "Secretary Guo, there is something urgent in the county, so I will come back first. Next time, I will treat Secretary Guo to dinner."
Hearing this, Guo Xing'an smiled and said, "Xiao Qiao, are you not dissatisfied with me because of that Zhong Liyang incident and don't even want to eat?"
Qiao Liang shook his head and denied, "Secretary Guo, you misunderstood. How could I have such thoughts? There is indeed something going on in the county."
Guo Xing'an smiled and said, "It's okay if you don't. In my position, you have to understand my difficulties."
Qiao Liang said, "Secretary Guo, I understand."
Guo Xing'an smiled and said, "If nothing happens, let's leave it at that. We will keep in touch more in the future. If anything happens, you can report and communicate with me in time. In short, I will support your work as always."
Qiao Liang nodded and said, "Thank you, Secretary Guo, for your support."
Guo Xing'an smiled and said, "I should support you. After all, I proposed to the province to transfer you from Guanzhou. If I don't support who do you support? Just feel free to do it boldly."
The two chatted briefly. After Qiao Liang hung up the phone, he breathed a sigh of relief. Guo Xing'an still supported him, but because of Zhong Liyang's incident, Qiao Liang felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, and Qiao Liang had a vague feeling. , Guo Xingan does not seem to be as candid as he appears on the surface.
After thinking wildly for a while, around 12 o'clock, Qiao Liang heard footsteps coming from outside the box. He guessed that Zhang Shengyi might be here. Qiao Liang stood up, and sure enough, the figure that appeared at the door was none other than Zhang Shengyi.
Qiao Liang smiled and was about to step forward to greet Zhang Shengyi. At this moment, Qiao Liang noticed that Zhang Shengyi did not come alone. There was a man coming in with him. When Qiao Liang saw the man's face clearly, I was stunned for a moment, and then I suddenly realized that the person who came with Zhang Shengyi was Huang Changhu, the head of the municipal discipline department.
Considering that Huang Changhu was also appointed by Chen Zhenggang to serve as the head of the Guanzhou City Disciplinary Department, he is undoubtedly Chen Zhenggang's right-hand man, and it is not surprising that he would join Zhang Shengyi.
"Director Zhang is here." Thoughts flashed through his mind. Qiao Liang greeted Zhang Shengyi first with a smile on his face. Then his eyes fell on Huang Changhu. He was about to greet him when he noticed the way Huang Changhu looked at him. Qiao Liang Liang's heart skipped a beat. Huang Changhu seemed dissatisfied with him?
Doubts suddenly arose in his mind. Qiao Liang smiled calmly at Huang Changhu and said, "Secretary Huang is here too."
As soon as Qiao Liang finished speaking, Huang Changhu snorted slightly and walked to the chair to sit down, ignoring Qiao Liang.
Seeing Huang Changhu's reaction, Qiao Liang was stunned. He had felt right just now. Huang Changhu was really dissatisfied with him. But the other party turned his face on him so directly. It was beyond Qiao Liang's expectation. It was said that he was at Huang Changhu's level. Cadres are more likely to show their emotions and anger without expressing their emotions.
But these are not important. What makes Qiao Liang wonder is that he has not offended Huang Changhu, so how can the other party be dissatisfied with him?
At this time, Zhang Shengyi stepped forward, smiled and patted Qiao Liang on the shoulder, "Secretary Qiao, you don't need to pay attention to him. This yellow-faced and black-faced person has the same temper as a firecracker. If he gets angry at the slightest moment, just treat him as if he doesn't exist."
Huang Hei Lian is Huang Changhu’s nickname. Because of his dark skin and his usually straight face, people in the committee privately gave him this nickname, but only those who were familiar with him like Zhang Shengyi Only one dares to call someone like that to his face.
Huang Changhu heard Zhang Shengyi's words and said angrily, "Old Zhang, who told you to shout this nickname randomly?"
Zhang Shengyi laughed, "Yellow and black face, do you dare to say that your face is not black?"
