On the morning of 31 August, as soon as he went to work, the Chengkang City CPC Committee convened a standing committee. On the agenda of the meeting, congratulations to Vice Mayor Chu Tianqi for further study at the Central Party School.

At the meeting, Xue Tao, secretary of the municipal party committee, made an enthusiastic speech, and he did not hesitate to praise Chu Tianqi. The central idea has one meaning: Mayor Chu was able to go to the Central Party School for training and study, which is not only a personal honor, but also a glory for the people of Chengkang Municipal Party Committee and Chengkang City.

After the secretary of the municipal party committee, other members of the Standing Committee also made a statement, congratulated Mayor Chu, and wished Mayor Chu great success in his studies.

People noticed that everyone expressed their congratulations today, and even the "old enemy" Jiang Xia also sent blessings. People have also noticed that Deputy Secretary Jiang's words are sincere and affectionate, and they seem to have lost some of their temper. Many people couldn't help but laugh secretly in their hearts: Eighty percent of the girls regretted it, and they regretted that they treated Chu Tianqi, a high-performance stock, as a garbage stock.

Among all the speeches, Peng Shaogen's words were concise, and his expression was ugly, and his laughter was like crying.

In the face of everyone's congratulations, Chu Tianqi also made a statement. Thank you to the Municipal Party Committee, thank you colleagues, thank you for your care and support, and thank you for your tolerance and care.

The atmosphere of the entire Standing Committee was quite harmonious, and almost all of them were sincere, as if the previous friction and estrangement had disappeared. Of course, everyone understands in their hearts that an important skill for the survival of officialdom is acting.

After the meeting, Chu Tianqi went to the offices of the three leaders to express his gratitude and goodbye again. People found that he had been in Deputy Secretary Jiang's office for the shortest time, only about five minutes, and people felt that this was normal, and this was the state that the opponent should have.

……

After lunch, Chu Tianqi and Li Ziteng said hello, and without telling anyone, they embarked on the road to * City. It was Li Jian who drove to see him off, which was also something that Wei Tongsuo had specially ordered yesterday.

When the car drove out of the Chengkang City Party and Government Compound, Chu Tianqi felt that something seemed to be spinning in his eyes.

It's been thirty or forty minutes on the highway, but Chu Tianqi and Li Jian didn't speak, and the whole car was very quiet and dull, just like the mood of the two people in the car.

It was Chu Tianqi who broke the silence: "Lijian, when are you going to the city?"

Li Aijia said that it is estimated that it will be about the same next week. Li Jian's voice was low, "Mayor, you have so many things to do, and you are thinking about my affairs, I really don't know what to say in my heart." ”

"Don't say anything. Chu Tianqi smiled, "We have been together for so many years, you followed me thousands of miles away from home, to Xuyuan, to Chengkang, followed me to endure a lot of hardships, and encountered a lot of dangers, I have long regarded you as a brother." Now I want to go to the capital to study, I will go for half a year, I don't know where I will go in the future, whether I can return to Chengkang or not, I should make arrangements for you, and I can't leave you alone in a foreign land. ”

Li Jian's voice was a little hoarse: "Mayor, you are so ...... to me"

In order to avoid the other party's sadness and relieve his sentimentality, Chu Tianqi changed the topic: "To what extent has the leaders of the organization department progressed, and when will we do things?"

Li Jian's face was gloomy, and he changed to a shy look, a little embarrassed: "That's it, I'm still going on, and I didn't mention the future." ”

"Li Jian, you are too modest, what do you mean 'just like that'? I have heard, Li Aijia is on the phone for your business, and he is running in person, and he is very busy. Chu Tianqi laughed again and again, "You are also not young, and you have reached the age of talking about marriage, what is there to be embarrassed about?"

"It's the boss who is not too young, and he is getting older. "Hehe" smiled, "But there are still bigger ones than me, aren't they in a hurry?"

"Good boy, you dare to beat me with cymbals. Chu Tianqi said angrily, "Okay, don't ask this time, there are times when you kid is in a hurry." ”

"Hehe, should the leader ask or should he ask. Li Jian said with a smile, "But the leader can't only care about me, but also care about himself." ”

"you, worry about yourself first. After Chu Tianqi said a word, he stopped talking.

In the rearview mirror, the smiling face of the sword appeared at the right time, obviously in a good mood.

After such a joke, Chu Tianqi's mood was much better.

Leaving Chengkang this time, the arrangement of the sword is also something that Chu Tianqi is worried about.

The afternoon before yesterday, when he was in Cheng Aiguo's office, Cheng Aiguo offered to "have something to help", and Chu Tianqi told the other party about the sword. As he said to Li Jian, in his heart he has long regarded Li Jian as a brother, a brother who can make friends and even change his life, and he must arrange it before leaving. When he left Cheng Aiguo's office and returned to the car, Chu Tianqi talked to Li Jian about his studies and asked Li Jian about his plans. In the evening of the same day, Li Jian replied and wanted to work in Dingye City. This reply was expected by Chu Tianqi, because Dingye had a sweetheart with a sharp sword.

As soon as he got to work yesterday morning, Chu Tianqi told Cheng Aiguo about the idea of a sharp sword, and Cheng Aiguo said that he would do it immediately. The words of the organization minister really worked, and it didn't take long for Chu Tianqi to receive a call from Director Liu of the Qiaoxi Branch of the Dingye City Public Security Bureau. Director Liu said that the leaders of the Dingye City Bureau ordered Li Jian to be transferred to the sub-bureau to be the deputy captain of the criminal police team, and gave the captain treatment, and asked Mayor Chu to tell Li Jian to get ready. When Chu Tianqi finished answering the phone, Li Jian came to report, and Li Aijia called and said that the leader of Li Jian's transfer procedures had been approved. Li Jian was able to be arranged, and the level of arrangement was raised, but Chu Tianqi was very happy.

"Ding Bang", the sudden ringing of the bell interrupted Chu Tianqi's thoughts.

took out his mobile phone and looked at the caller ID, Chu Tianqi pressed the answer button: "Hello secretary, I'm ......"

Before he finished speaking, a voice came from his mobile phone: "Comrade Tianqi, sneaking around, not even saying hello, but losing the identity of a top student in the party school." ”

Hearing that the other party was not only expressing kindness and ridiculing, but also complaining, Chu Tianqi also said in a mocking tone: "I think the secretary must be on a lunch break, so I plan to report after half past two." The secretary is concerned about the well-being of the people of the whole city, and if he disturbs you, isn't that a problem with the people of the whole city? ”

"As far as you will say, you have lost all the anger in your belly. The other party snorted: "Originally, I had arranged with Director Yan to hold a dinner party for you in the evening, and he will inform you in the afternoon." But I just received a call from him saying that you had sneaked away, and you didn't say anything when you came over in the morning. Didn't you report for duty tomorrow afternoon, as for the urgency?"

Chu Tianqi smiled and said: "Secretary, to be honest, I'm still afraid of drinking, and I understand your concern." I invited a few subordinates to drink last night, but I had already drunk a lot, and I was temporarily added halfway, which completely made me miserable. Now when I hear that word, I can't get sick to my stomach. In addition, isn't this the first time I have been to the Central Party School, and I am also very excited, thinking that I will go early to see where the door opens, and when I can save it, it will be like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, and then make jokes. ”

"Young people are brains, my brain is slow, I can't talk about you. The other party changed the topic, "Since you have embarked on the road of further study in the capital, then I wish you a smooth journey, and I will have a banquet with you when you return." ”

"Thank you, secretary, for your attention. Chu Tianqi replied, "I will study hard and live up to the secretary's expectations and wishes." ”

After saying "goodbye", the other party hung up the phone.

Chu Tianqi sneered lightly and put away his mobile phone.

The person who called just now was Xue Tao, secretary of the Chengkang Municipal Party Committee. Chu Tianqi understands that the other party's call to "blame" is fake, in fact, it is mainly to show an attitude: I, Xue Tao, attach great importance to you. Of course, the banquet in the afternoon should also be a fact, which can show the importance of himself, and Xue Tao can also occupy the advantage of the home field as the squad leader of the municipal party committee.

In fact, the reason why Chu Tianqi hurriedly "escaped" was precisely to avoid this matter, of course, it was not purely to avoid drinking, it was just an excuse, he was hiding from Xue and Wei. It was originally a simple training and study, but now it seems that it has become a tool for the secretary and the mayor to fight the law, and they all want to use their closeness to themselves to compete for resources. Yesterday, Wei Tongsuo took the lead and has already seized the opportunity. If Xue Tao doesn't keep up, won't he be willing to lose?

Some things are really unthinkable, the party-government struggle that should have been postponed* was ignited so early because of his trip to the capital. Of course, this is not the beginning of the all-out war between the secretary and the mayor, it can only be regarded as a rehearsal, or a prologue, and it will definitely stop for a while, because Wei Tongsuo does not have the strength yet. It's just that Xue Tao will definitely not allow the other party to develop forces, and will definitely step up the suppression and defense against the top leaders of the government. Wei Tongsuo now seems to have taken the lead, but it also makes the opponent smell the danger, and Xue Tao's defensive counterattack is bound to be fiercer. Therefore, there are many things that have gains and losses, and they need to be carefully weighed.

……

At four o'clock in the afternoon, it had been more than an hour since the "Santana 2000" entered the capital city, and the sacred place in his heart was already far away. This is mainly due to the severe road jam in the city, otherwise it would have been at the door long ago.

It is true that he did not report for duty today, and Chu Tianqi could not enter in advance, but he wanted to feel her sacredness and * up close in advance.

Caught in the rolling traffic, all the cars can only snailly forward, there is no urgency, and it is useless to hurry. But Chu Tianqi was very anxious in his heart, it was a short distance away, why did he have to be out of reach?

"Get aside, I'll go down first. Driven by eagerness, Chu Tianqi made a decision.

It wasn't that easy to pull over, and it took no less than ten minutes for the "Santana 2000" to reach a position where it could temporarily park.

Pulling the car door, Chu Tianqi quickly stepped out of the car and ran directly to that sacred place. At first, he was at a gallop, and then he simply trotted.

It's close, it's close, it's here. Finally, the sacred place was in sight.

Looking up at the place in front of him that exuded divine brilliance, staring at those few strong big characters, Chu Tianqi's heart was surging, and he couldn't help but call out his heart: "I'm here." Central Party School, I'm here. ”
