There is a well-known lake in Ningzhou City, the provincial capital, called East Lake. The water of East Lake is rippling, the mountains in the distance are like black clouds, and there are many tourists around the lake. There are private clubs for various local tycoons and big shots, as well as coffee bars with petty bourgeoisie, and many more.

It is a youth hostel favored by literary youths. At the same time, various scenic spots with historical and legendary significance are dotted on both sides of the lake like stars. What appears on the lakeside are not only local tourists, but also visitors from other places, with black and white hair from all over the world.

Tourists with various colors of yellow and black, blue, green and brown eyes stopped by the lake to linger.

So playing in Ningzhou is actually playing in East Lake in a certain sense. Everything you can see, play, eat, play, sleep, gamble and even smoke in Ningzhou is all available near East Lake, as long as you have RMB.

Of course, U.S. dollars are also fine. Zhu Huaiyu said he wanted to relieve his boredom, relieve his anger, and talk. Liang Jian knew that he would definitely come to East Lake.

Liang Jian is not unfamiliar with East Lake. Jiangzhong University, a key national university, is located in Ningzhou City. Liang Jian studied at Ningzhou University for four years before returning to Jingzhou. During college, when he was bored, he would often go to the lake to play.

, I visited basically all the free attractions. I thought I had a good understanding of East Lake.

But later I discovered that East Lake is far more than the East Lake that Liang Jian, a college student with few coins in his pocket, understood. People from different classes, the rich and the poor, are completely different East Lakes. When Liang Jian was in college, he looked at East Lake as if

I only saw the appearance of a castle, but only when you have power and authority and obtained a pass, can you enter the castle and understand its splendor, delicacies, leisure and contentment, or even its conspiracies and bloody events.

East Lake is big, but East Lake is deep. In this way, every time Liang Jian comes to East Lake, he feels that East Lake does not belong to him, and at the same time he has an urge to learn more about East Lake.

The car parked in front of a high-end hotel by the lake. Next to the hotel was a cafe. The hotel attendant directed them to park, and they got out of the car first.

Liang Jian thought of the luggage bag in the trunk. The bag contained important information he brought back from Sichuan. Liang Jian said to Zhu Huaiyu: "It's okay to go have some coffee. My luggage is in the trunk of the car. You

I need Master Xiao Shi to look after it for me. Secretary Hu attaches great importance to the things inside."

This thing is something that not only Secretary Hu attaches great importance to, but also Mayor Hong must pay attention to. But the county magistrate is not as good as the current manager. It is effective to tell Zhu Huaiyu that Mayor Hong attaches great importance to it, but he must not say that Hu Xiaoying attaches great importance to it.

Zhu Huaiyu was a man of coarse and refined nature. He realized the weight of Liang Jian's words and thought: Could it be a valuable gift brought by Liang Jian to Secretary Hu? So he said: "I know." His driver Xiao

Shi said: "Help take Minister Liang's luggage bag in the trunk to the hotel room. You can take a rest in the room, but you can't take your eyes off the luggage bag for a moment."

Liang Jian asked: "You have a room here?" Zhu Huaiyu said: "Of course, we have come to Ningzhou, of course we have to sleep for one night!" Liang Jian said: "In this hotel?" Zhu Huaiyu said: "

Really? What's wrong?" Liang Jian said: "This hotel is not cheap, right?" Zhu Huaiyu said: "Don't worry, you don't have to pay, I have already arranged it for you!" Liang Jian smiled and said: "No.

Think about it, after becoming the mayor, you will become better and better as a person." Zhu Huaiyu said with a smile: "It doesn't matter, you will find out later that I am even better at being a person!"

When he walked into the cafe, Liang Jian immediately felt that the cafes in Ningzhou were really high-end, grand and upscale than the cafes in Jingzhou. From the bar to the seats, from the decoration to the cups and saucers, of course the key is the people who drink the coffee.

. In addition to simple coffee, one or two cafes in Ningzhou still have a petty bourgeoisie atmosphere, while others have basically become a place for some nouveau riche, engineering contractors and even social workers to hang out and kill time. In this summer, some small business owners just

They talked about things in the cafe with their arms raised, and some rolled up their trousers and lay on the sofa to sleep. After Liang Jian went there twice, he was not interested in Jingzhou’s cafes.

The cafe next to the East Lake is obviously much more upscale. In the center of the cafe, there is a foreign singer singing. His voice is slow and leisurely, and he looks like French blues singer Jones. He is sitting there drinking coffee.

Both men and women are basically wearing formal clothes. They are either socially successful people or middle-class people. Although Chinese people always have an unnatural pretentiousness when drinking coffee, it is several times better than Jingzhou.

A waitress wearing a green skirt suit asked them if they had a reservation. Zhu Huaiyu smiled at her and said, "We already have someone here, in seat seven."

The waitress said with a smile: "Invite this way." She led them from a row of small coffee tables to the inside. A low wooden wall separated a small area of ​​​​the sky and the ground, and a large floor-to-ceiling window made the sitting

People inside can directly see the street view outside the window, and it blocks the hustle and bustle of the city, providing peace and tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle.

In this small cubicle, there was a woman sitting. As soon as Liang Jian saw the woman's back, he was shocked. She looked quite relaxed, leaning on the sofa, drinking coffee and admiring the street view. Liang Jian secretly said

:How is that possible?

As if aware of someone coming in, the woman turned her head.

It was indeed Hu Xiaoying. Liang Jian suddenly raised several questions in his mind: How could it be Hu Xiaoying? How come Zhu Huayu is with Hu Xiaoying? Why is Hu Xiaoying in Ningzhou? Is it possible that she was waiting for him in the cafe today?

What's the purpose?

This series of question marks was just a thought. Liang Jian smiled and called respectfully: "Hello, Secretary Hu!"

When Hu Xiaoying saw Liang Jian coming in, she stood up with a smile and said, "Our imperial envoy is back!" Hu Xiaoying was referring to the fact that Liang Jian was seconded by the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee to inspect cadres.

Liang Jian said: "How can you call him an imperial envoy?" Hu Xiaoying said: "A serious imperial envoy! Sit down quickly. Mayor Zhu, please sit down too!" The two sat down, and Hu Xiaoying asked:

"How was it along the way?" Liang Jian said, "It's okay!"

Hu Xiaoying said: "Have you guessed that I am waiting for you here?" Liang Jian said: "How could you guess it? Earlier, Lao Zhu said, let me meet someone I couldn't guess. I really didn't.

You guessed it!" Hu Xiaoying smiled and said, "Then who did you originally guess?" Liang Jian glanced at Hu Xiaoying's warm smile and said, "Lao Zhu said I couldn't guess it, so I didn't guess it at all!"

All three of them laughed!

The coffee is here. Liang Jian originally wanted to taste the taste of the coffee, but now that he is with Hu Xiaoying, the meaning of drinking coffee has also changed. What he tastes is no longer the coffee itself, but the meaning of Hu Xiaoying drinking coffee with them!

Hu Xiaoying said: "I am having a meeting in the province. Mayor Zhu said that you are back and will come to pick you up. I thought it would be a good time to have a coffee together. I also want to know if you gained anything from your trip to Sichuan this time."

Liang Jian wondered that Zhu Huaiyu was going to pick him up at Ningzhou Airport. How could Hu Xiaoying know? Could it be that Zhu Huaiyu had been so proactive in getting closer to the secretary and had reported any whereabouts to the secretary?

Liang Jian did not ask specifically about the strangeness in this area. If Hu Xiaoying or Zhu Huaiyu wanted him to know, they would definitely tell them. If they didn't want him to know, it would be better not to ask! Liang Jian turned to the investigation

Situation: "This inspection, when we arrived at the disaster area, was quite shocking. There is indeed a big gap between the economic and social development there and ours. However, the people in the disaster area are also very motivated and have not lost it because of this disaster.

Hope, and actively invested in the reconstruction work. Our city's reconstruction aid commander has also completed the construction of many projects in Tianluo Township, and has been generally welcomed by the people in the disaster area."

Liang Jian basically spoke as if he was reporting on his work. He didn't know what Hu Xiaoying wanted him to say or to what extent. In addition, Zhu Huaiyu was also present. It seemed inconvenient to talk about the specific circumstances of the inspection unless Hu Xiaoying asked him to.

he said.

Sure enough, Hu Xiaoying was still interested in the inspection situation and asked: "How is the situation after this inspection?" Liang Jian said: "So far, it is pretty good." A sharp light flashed in Hu Xiaoying's eyes: "Why do you say that?

So far?" Liang Jian said: "Until the inspection team left Tianluo for Chengdu, we did not learn of any adverse reactions or situations during the inspection."

Hu Xiaoying stretched out her hand and picked up the coffee cup in front of her. Hu Xiaoying's hands were round and shiny, as soft as warm jade. Although Liang Jian had seen her well-maintained hands more than once, he was still surprised. Everyone said that hands are the most beautiful.

It is easy to reveal a woman's age. It is not easy for a woman to maintain such beautiful hands at this age. Hands and feet are the ends of the body, and the ends are the most susceptible to aging and the most difficult to maintain.

Place. Hu Xiaoying's hands are so moist, which shows that she is in good health and glows with the charm of a young woman.

Hu Xiaoying took a sip of coffee and looked at Liang Jian: "What you said is interesting. You didn't react when you left Tianluo. Did something happen later?" Liang Jian glanced at Zhu Huaiyu beside him and felt very puzzled. Hu Xiaoying

Why are you talking about this in front of Zhu Huaiyu? Do you fully trust him?

Liang Jian and Zhu Huaiyu were good friends, and he felt at ease with Zhu Huaiyu. But strangely, Hu Xiaoying's trust in Zhu Huaiyu increased so quickly, which surprised Liang Jian. Zhu Huaiyu looked back with a smile.

One glance at Liang Jian, and he seemed very proud of the secretary's trust in him.

Hu Xiaoying noticed Liang Jian's gaze, and she was very satisfied with Liang Jian's caution. She said with a warm smile: "Liang Jian, I have an idea, let me tell you first. Chen Zheng, director of the district committee office, has been the former district committee member

The secretary’s work up to this point can be considered as a complete success, so it’s time to move his position!”

Liang Jian looked at Hu Xiaoying, and a thought slipped through his mind: Chen Zheng was moved to make Zhu Huaiyu the director of the district committee? Liang Jian glanced at Zhu Huaiyu quickly, and Zhu Huaiyu was still as proud as ever.

With a smile, Liang Jian guessed that this was most likely true. Sure enough, Hu Xiaoying said: "I want Mayor Zhu to come to the District Committee Office and serve as the Director of the District Committee Office. What do you think?"

Hu Xiaoying actually asked for his opinion. Liang Jian was a little flattered and quickly replied: "Okay, I think Comrade Zhu Huaiyu is completely qualified."

Hu Xiaoying hesitated a little and said: "The only problem is that Mayor Zhu has just arrived in Xizhen, and some people may have some ideas when he is transferred to the district committee office!"

Liang Jian said: "This is the need for the work of the district committee! Looking at the entire Changhu District, what else is more important than the work of the district committee? Everyone can definitely understand this."

Hu Xiaoying nodded slightly, obviously very satisfied with Liang Jian's answer. She said: "I will talk to you about this first. I will discuss the specific situation with Minister Yongliang." Liang Jian said.

Okay, Hu Xiaoying said again: "Okay, let's continue talking about the inspection!" Hu Xiaoying said this, which was tantamount to treating Zhu Huaiyu as one of her own.

Liang Jian nodded and said: "During the two days of inspection in Tianluo, the inspection team did not find any outstanding problems with the objects being inspected, at least they did not have strong evidence. Yesterday, we completed the task and left Tianluo Township, but in Chengdu Yin

By mistake, we discovered that the Tianluo Township Party Committee and Government and the commander of the headquarters, Zhai Xingye, had outstanding problems in some aspects, and most importantly, we also obtained strong evidence."

When Hu Xiaoying heard this, her eyes were sharp and she asked: "Have you got the evidence materials?" Liang Jian nodded: "Yes, there is some information." Hu Xiaoying was in disbelief: "Do you have the evidence materials in your hands?" Liang Jian nodded affirmatively:

"yes."

Hu Xiaoying's: "Today I called Director Xiong of the Second Cadre Division and asked about the status of your inspection. She was not too optimistic and said that there were no substantial findings. Is it because she is unwilling to tell me the truth, or do you know

The situation is different from hers?" Liang Jian said: "Well, I have some other information that she doesn't know about yet." Hu Xiaoying was a little confused: "The situation that Director Xiong doesn't know about?"

Although he didn't get along with Xiong Yeli for a long time, Liang Jian saw that she had a straightforward personality, a clear distinction between black and white, and that she couldn't hide things. If he told her, he might inadvertently expose the traces and bring trouble to them in a foreign country.

For this reason, Liang Jian restrained himself from telling Xiong Yeli the explosive evidence. However, in front of Hu Xiaoying, he could not be too straightforward. After all, the relationship between Xiong Yeli and Hu Xiaoying was very

Talking about people behind their back is always not very bright and does not conform to Liang Jian's usual style. Liang Jian only said: "The information I have is not obtained through formal channels. It is a coincidence. I accidentally

I came across it, and it’s hard to tell the authenticity, so I haven’t told Director Xiong yet, I want to ask Secretary Hu to take a look first!”

Liang Jian's words were a little flattering, but Hu Xiaoying was quite pleased with them. After all, this showed that her status in Liang Jian's mind was very high. She nodded slightly and said, "Well, as an inspection team

Members, you need to be cautious. From a legal perspective, evidence is clearly defined. Not just anything can be used as evidence." Liang Jian looked serious and said: "Yes, I am.

For this reason.”

Hu Xiaoying glanced at him with satisfaction and asked, "So, where is the evidence you mentioned?" Liang Jian said, "It's in my luggage bag." Hu Xiaoying said, "Where is the luggage bag?" Liang Jian turned around and looked.

Zhu Huaiyu: "I asked Mayor Zhu's secretary to keep it for me." Hu Xiaoying turned to look at Zhu Huaiyu.

Only then did Zhu Huaiyu understand why Liang Jian attached so much importance to the luggage bag. It turned out that it contained some confidential materials. He originally thought it was a gift brought by Liang Jian to the leader! Zhu Huaiyu said: "I asked the driver to specially

Open the room and guard the luggage bag!" Hu Xiaoying said: "Okay, let's go and take a look."

Liang Jian's coffee had just been served, and they had only taken one or two sips. The surrounding environment was nice. Liang Jian was a little greedy for a moment, so he said, "Let's drink the coffee first. We don't need more than a few minutes."

Hu Xiaoying was about to get up, but after hearing what Liang Jian said, she sank into the sofa, chose a more comfortable position, and said with a relaxed expression: "Okay, we just came here for coffee, let's talk about business.

, I have actually forgotten this original intention." As he spoke, he picked up the coffee cup, with a gentle smile that seemed to be covered with a hint of brilliance, and said: "I will drink coffee instead of wine and propose a toast to you. It is a blessing for you to come all the way!"

Liang Jian smiled and said: "Secretary Hu, you are saving too much money for Changhu District. You want to send me away with just a cup of coffee!" Hu Xiaoying looked at Liang Jian and smiled: "If you want a higher standard of reception, look for Zhu Huai in the future.

Yu, although I am the secretary of the district committee, but I don’t care about the money, I can only treat you to coffee. Zhu Huaiyu will be the director of the district committee office in the future, equivalent to the secretary-general. You can go to him for things like eating and drinking. "
