In the bright study, Xie Wenting drank tea silently, and his handsome face was indifferent.

Sitting across the round table was a slightly bald middle-aged man, who put down his teacup with a smile and said, "Tang Yi, don't you have to come to Ningxi to show you merit?" They all say that he can do things, but you have taught him a lesson! ”

Xie Wenting smiled, there is no interface, the middle-aged man opposite is his most powerful ally in Ningxi, Kong Laien, who was also picked up by Guan Husheng when he was in Ningxi, successively served as the mayor of Liangzhou City, Ningxi, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, Kong Laien's ability is very strong, Liangzhou City in his tenure in the words of a central leader is "to become a beautiful city like a garden", unique among the cities in the northwest, and recently there is a rumor, he will be transferred to the Provincial Party Committee Organization Minister, It seems that the investigation team of the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee will soon come down to inspect him.

"Tang Yi came to Ningxi, I think, take down Chen Cannon and welcome him?" Kong Laien said with a smile.

Xie Wenting shook his head and said, "Laien, now is your critical period, and you still need to pay attention to some things." Although Kong Laien is a little floaty, he only gives people an impression on the surface, but in fact he is very capable and stable, which is very valued by Secretary Jiang of the Provincial Party Committee.

Kong Laien laughed happily, "I'll just talk about it, if you want to use the Chen cannon, do you have to wait until now?" After a pause, he smiled and said, "But it's really pleasant to see Tang Yi pinching his nose to add color to you." ”

Xie Wenting smiled, "It's all work." ”

Just after the New Year, Tang Yi led the working group to Ningxi to inspect the Ningxi natural gas project, CCTV and Ningxi TV have reported, Tang Yi naturally gave a high award to the Ningxi natural gas project, and praised the prospects of the project and its impact on the development of the northwest region.

Xie Wenting picked up the teacup and asked as if he didn't care: "Tang Yi went to Qin Chengye?" ”

The second aunt of the Ning family was transferred to the mayor of the state and city at the beginning of last year, he served as the deputy mayor of the state, and was very excluded at that time, and later transferred to a remote small city in Ningxi as the mayor and secretary of the municipal party committee. And now after the news came out that Kong Laien might be transferred to the head of the organization department of the provincial party committee, Qin Chengye has become a strong contender for the secretary of the state and municipal party committees.

Hearing Xie Wenting ask, Kong Laien nodded slightly, "Chen Cannon is also here, I think it's for Qin Chengye's debut, there are also voices in the province ready to go to Qin Chengye, I think this person is not good yet, he needs to exercise again." ”

Xie Wenting nodded slightly, picked up the teacup again and took a sip slowly.

……

When night falls, the wind blows outside again, and the wind and sand in the early spring are very large, and when you go around the street, you often come home covered with sand.

Seeing that Ning Ergu entered the living room with a scarf and complained about the ghost weather, Tang Yi smiled and said to Qin Chengye: "Uncle, my second aunt has suffered a lot in the past few years. ”

Qin Chengye also sighed softly, looking at Second Aunt Ning's pretty figure, her eyes were full of warmth, "Yes, I hurt her." Thinking about it, I remembered that Ning Ergu came together with him without hesitation despite the opposition of her family, and endured the harsh environment in the northwest for many years, and has been silently supporting herself, family affection and love, Ning Ergu chose the latter, but Qin Chengye knew how painful she was, sometimes when she woke up in the morning, the pillow towel was wet with tears, whenever that time, Qin Chengye just silently helped her change the pillow towel, but Qin Chengye kept telling himself that for the sake of his lover, he must also make some achievements, although he is old now, Qin Chengye's slightly naïve wish when he was a teenager has never changed.

"Come on, Xiaoyi, taste the authentic boneless chicken in our state." After Ning Ergu went to the kitchen to work for a while, she served a plate of crispy yellow chicken, cut neatly, and poured red peppers and green rape among the dots, which made people appetizing.

Tang Yi smiled, reached out and grabbed a piece of chicken and stuffed it into his mouth, he couldn't take care of the ugly appearance, the second aunt braved the wind and sand to go to the street just to buy the boneless chicken he had just mentioned, Tang Yi's heart was warm, every time he saw Ning Ergu, he could always feel a strong family affection, maybe because Ning Ergu and the Ning family had been separated for too long, and he naturally regarded himself, the son-in-law of the Ning family, as a family member, maybe pampered himself, just like hurting his little sister.

Ning Ergu looked at Tang Yi with a kind face, in her eyes, Tang Yi was not a high-ranking official of a ministry, but just the lover of her favorite niece.

Chen Dahe smiled, also grabbed a piece and tasted it, and said with a smile: "Okay, good, this shop is authentic." ”

Ning Ergu smiled, simply went to get the wine again, bought a few dishes and brought them up, and said, "You guys talk while drinking." ”

The wine is Wuliangye, mellow and spicy, Chen Dahe gave Tang Yi and Qin Chengye a full glass of wine, so he toasted with a big grin, Tang Yi smiled and said, "You're welcome." ”

"What are you polite to me with Lao Qin?" Chen Dahe shook the emperor's head, and Tang Yi couldn't do anything about him.

Tang Yi took the wine glass and touched it lightly with Qin Chengye, took a sip and put down the wine glass, "Uncle, Kong Laien seems to be about to move, what about you, do you have a letter?" ”

Qin Chengye said with a smile: "I don't see any hope, don't rush, take your time." ”

Chen Dahe frowned and said: "Kong Laien, this kid, has always been at odds with Lao Qin, can he let Lao Qin go smoothly?" That kid wanted to mention Jiao Jun, and Xie Wenting must have also been involved. ”

Tang Yi and Qin Chengye were both accustomed to Chen Dahe's straightforwardness, Tang Yi frowned, "Jiao Jun? ”

"Well, the secretary of the municipal party committee of that garden city." At the mention of Garden City, Chen Dahe pouted disdainfully.

Tang Yi nodded, there must be Xie Wenting's shadow here, Jiao Jun is the secretary of the Shangzhou Municipal Party Committee, Xie Wenting has another arm.

"I see, just pull Kong Laien off the horse and tell him to go around behind Xie Wenting** all day long, and I will be angry when I see him." Chen Dahe is very bitter and hateful to Kong Laien, and when he heard Kong Laien mention himself, he always called himself "Chen Cannon" in a disdainful tone. Some words will naturally reach Chen Dahe's ears, and when Kong Laien is mentioned, Chen Dahe gritted his teeth.

Tang Yi smiled and patted Chen Dahe on the shoulder, with Chen Dahe's style, it is normal for many heavyweights to look down on him, probably thinking that Chen Dahe is just giving himself a beard and a horse to rise all the way.

"Secretary Tang, how about I get Kong Laien down?" Chen Dahe raised his head and looked at Tang Yi, a little serious and a little joking, but Tang Yi was slightly stunned, picked up the teacup, and did not squeak.

Coming out of Secretary Jiang's office, Secretary Li was sorting out documents, Kong Laien gently patted him on the shoulder when he passed by, smiled kindly, and Li Mi also smiled and nodded.

Out of the secretary's room, Kong Laien's mobile phone vibrate, Kong Laien took out the phone, looked at the number, connected, and said with a smile: "Jingzhong, is there something?" ”

The caller was Zhao Jingzhong, secretary of the party committee and director of the state prison.

Zhao Jingzhong was standing in the office at this time, frowning and looking at the TV in the corner, the TV screen was fixed, two men were walking out of a room, and the man walking in front was wearing a prison uniform.

This is a surveillance video in the prison, showing two men, one is Xiang Rong, the former deputy director of the Liangzhou Municipal Construction Committee, who was imprisoned for arson ten years ago, and the other is Yin Shoufa, the deputy director of the state prison.

Xiang Rong, Secretary Kong has been instructed to pay attention to his every move, Zhao Jingzhong did not ask the reason, but faithfully carried out Secretary Kong's orders, he also thought about it in private, maybe his former Prison Director Liu also received the same instructions from Secretary Kong, Zhao Jingzhong also knew that Xiang Rong seemed to be Secretary Kong's right-hand man in Liangzhou, just because of the demolition of the slums in the city center, because of the delay in negotiating the conditions with the residents, conniving at the arson of real estate developers, although there were no casualties, but the impact was extremely bad, The same fire also burned a beautiful garden city, Zhao Jingzhong sometimes pondered, maybe Secretary Kong was more or less grateful to Xiang Rong, without Xiang Rong's fire, Liangzhou didn't know when he would be able to complete the transformation of the city center, but this gratitude could not be declared.

This morning, Zhao Jingzhong overheard the prison guard say that Xiang Rong and Deputy Prison Director Yin are very close these days, and Deputy Prison Director Yin also takes care of Xiang Rong.

Although he didn't know the reason for the incident, Zhao Jingzhong felt that it was better to call Secretary Kong to report.

When Kong Laien heard Zhao Jingzhong's words, his face sank, Xiang Rong was a thorn in his heart, which made him sleep and eat from time to time, sometimes, he wanted to pull out this thorn for a hundred years, but he knew that many things could not be deepened.

Kong Laien's tone did not show a trace of abnormality, but said very calmly: "You talk to him, talk to Xiang Rong, and say that I know." ”

Zhao Jingzhong guessed what Secretary Kong's "I know" meant, and said yes with a smile.

After hanging up the phone, Kong Laien had already come to the elevator, and the three or two cadres waiting for the elevator greeted him warmly, Kong Laien smiled and nodded, looking more friendly than usual.

……

In the small restaurant on the top floor of the state hotel, the beautiful waitress in red uniform shuttled briskly between the various boxes, and the waitress was all smart and could come to the top floor to serve, all of which were selected by thousands of people, and there was a political review, and the treatment on the top floor was also a grade higher than that below.

In the room, Chen Dahe glared at the bull's eye, "Lao Yin, you are playing me, what did my mother say a few days ago, patted my chest and said that Kong Laien was related to the arson case, and now there is no such thing?" ”

Sitting opposite Chen Dahe was the deputy warden of the state prison Yin Shoufa, who knew Chen Dahe's temper very well, and said with a wry smile: "Director Chen, I just said that at the time, who knew that you were serious." ”

Chen Dahe picked up the wine glass and poured a big sip, glared at Yin Shoufa, and Yin Shoufa felt a little hairy in his heart, Chen Dahe is famous for his fiery temper, acting unscrupulously, and being a ruffian, it is rumored that he has a close relationship with the Ningxi gang, and he once used the Ningxi gangster to rescue foreign hostages, such a temperamental person started a fire, and I really don't know what he can do.

"It's Xiang Rong who changed his words, right?" Chen Dahe glared at Yin Shoufa, Yin Shoufa nodded unconsciously, then sighed, and said: "Yes, he said that what he said to me that day was that he drank too much and was talking nonsense, no matter how much I asked, he didn't squeak, and then simply told me, and if he harassed him again, he would complain to the prison director about me." ”

Chen Dahe gritted his teeth and said, "Damn, it must be known by Kong Laien, a bastard." ”

Yin Shoufa was taken aback, he was depressed in the Provincial Prison Administration, and by chance he caught up with Chen Dahe's line, and was soon appointed as the deputy warden of the State Prison (formerly the Provincial No. 1 Prison), completing the triple jump from the chief clerk to the actual deputy department, he has always regarded himself as Chen Dahe's person, and Xiang Rong's family is wealthy, his family is up and down, and Xiang Rong also eats and drinks in prison, and calls the prison guards brothers, listen

There is a lot of relationship outside, several chief and deputy prison directors are also on duty with him, and inadvertently chatted with Xiang Rong, at that time Xiang Rong was drunk, saying that Kong Laien, secretary of the state and municipal party committee, had a lifelong friendship with him, Yin Shoufa asked a few words, and Xiang Rong said that he was in prison for the future of Secretary Kong, etc., Yin Shoufa didn't care, and told Chen Dahe like a joke, who knew that Chen Dahe asked him to talk to Xiang Rong again, and after talking a few times, Xiang Rong flatly denied that he had said those words.

Yin Shoufa was also greatly relieved, he didn't know what the festival between Director Chen and Secretary Kong was, but he didn't want to get involved, otherwise he wouldn't know how to die if he died, Yin Shoufa regretted mentioning Xiang Rong's drunken talk with Director Chen, and if he got into trouble, he was afraid that he would be stained.

Seeing Director Chen's eyes widen again, saying that the matter may have been known by Secretary Kong, Yin Shou's heart was pounding, Director Chen seemed to have a deep foundation in the Beijing department, and he couldn't fight Secretary Kong patted ** and left, but he was a family in the state, and he would be martyred.

Repentant, Chen Dahe nodded thoughtfully and said, "Lao Yin, arrange for me to meet Xiang Rong, the sooner the better." ”

Yin Shoufa almost jumped up from his chair and hurriedly said, "This, isn't this okay?" Disberus, I, I'm afraid ......"

Chen Dahe frowned, "That's it, you arrange, I'll call you in a few days!" As he spoke, he stood up and walked out of the box, looking at Chen Dahe's back, Yin Shoufa smiled bitterly, such a leader on the stall really costs people's lives.

……

Tang Yi, executive deputy director of the Western Development Office and deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, Jiang Mingshi, secretary of the Ningxi Provincial Party Committee, and other leaders inspected the construction of the Ningxi natural gas energy and chemical base.

On the TV screen, there is a fragment of Tang Yi's speech, "The completion of the Ningxi natural gas chemical base will promote the coordinated development of fine chemicals, chemical industry, new chemical materials, sulfur and phosphorus chemical projects in the western region, accelerate the integration of resources in the western region, and play a great role in promoting the economic development of the western region."

Looking at the screen, Tang Yi smiled, and said that "quality is the top priority, and safety is a matter of human life", and asked them to do a good job of "safety" and speech, so that there will be no reports, which is also a characteristic of local platforms, reporting good news and not bad news.

"Secretary, is this chemical base really that good?" On the side sofa, Wu Fengjuan asked Tang Yi with a smile.

Tang Yi smiled without saying a word, turned his head to look at Li Liang beside him, and said with a smile: "You husband and wife are now fighting side by side!" ”

Li Liang smiled a little embarrassedly, he had no way to take his lover.

When Tang Yi was still in the Yellow Sea, Li Liang was promoted to deputy mayor, and Wu Fengjuan was arranged as the deputy secretary-general of the municipal party committee and the director of the general office, and after Tang Yi left, Wu Fengjuan quickly got tired of this errand for the leader, she also knew that this position seemed to be prominent, and it seemed to be only one step away from the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and the secretary-general of the Municipal Party Committee, but with her ability and qualifications, she could not enter the Standing Committee of the Yellow Sea in any case, and this best springboard for promotion did not have much practical significance for her. Soon after, she was transferred to the director of the Municipal Economic and Trade Commission, and became the leader of one of the most important departments directly under the municipal government.

Li Liang led an economic and trade delegation to the northwest provinces to inspect, Wu Fengjuan was the deputy head of the delegation, and he collided with Tang Yi if he didn't want to, and the couple staged a woman singing husband and wife, Li Liang and Wu Fengjuan were a little embarrassed when they met the old leaders, because Tang Yi used to transfer Wu Fengjuan around, but he didn't want gossip about the "mom-and-pop shop" in the compound of the municipal party committee.

Wu Fengjuan listened to Tang Yi's half-joking and half-serious ridicule, and said with a smile: "Secretary, it's all up to me, I used to serve you, no matter how hard and tired I was, my heart was sweet, since you left, how do I think about it, my heart is not good, my smile is less, and the leader is not satisfied with me, so I am sent to the frontier, I am sorry for your cultivation, I want to scold you and scold me!" ”

Wu Fengjuan is clever and tongue-in-cheek, and the little pony is just right, knowing that she is a sycophant, which is also comfortable to listen to.

Tang Yi was unmoved, frowning, Wu Fengjuan flickered in her heart, didn't dare to say any more, and obediently shut up.

Tang Yi glanced at Li Liang and smiled: "The work is going well, right?" How does Rilun treat you? ”

Tang Yi was able to ask this sentence, and it was clear that he did not treat Li Liang as an outsider, Li Liang was excited for a while, nodded and said: "Mayor Feng is very good to me, well, very good." In fact, Feng Rilun also looked down on Li Liang because he hated some of Wu Fengjuan's style, if Li Liang was not pulled by Tang Yi, I am afraid that Feng Rilun would have readjusted his work a long time ago. Li Liangzi would not tell Tang Yi about these situations.

Wu Fengjuan frowned, complaining in her heart that Li Liang didn't know how to seize the opportunity, why didn't she take the opportunity to sue Feng Rilun at this time? But she knew that her words didn't have much weight, and maybe she would incur Tang Yi's disgust, so she had to keep her mouth shut.

Tang Yi smiled and nodded, in fact, he knew a lot of things in the Yellow Sea, Zhou Wenkai and Feng Rilun fought very well, Feng Rilun "didn't value Secretary Tang's old subordinates" would naturally reach Tang Yi's ears, and Li Liang was naturally an example often cited on the side of the word, after all, when Li Liang was in the inspector's office, he was one of Tang Yi's most powerful cadres.

Picking up the teacup, Tang Yi took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Li Liang, now that the ministry is making personnel adjustments and preparing to select a group of cadres with grassroots work experience to come in, are you interested?" ”

Li Liang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said, "I, I'm afraid that I won't be qualified." ”

Wu Fengjuan's nervous heart raised her throat, entering the ministry, it is a good thing that local cadres dream of, it is difficult to find it with a lantern, when she heard Li Liang's answer, Wu Fengjuan was angry, she had no courage at all, how can Secretary Tang use you?

Tang Yi said with a smile: "Whether you are qualified or not has to organize an inspection to know, you have a bottom on this matter, I just play a recommending role, and whether you can come up in the end depends on yourself." ”

Tang Yi said politely, in fact, he had already made arrangements for Li Liang, and several ministries and commissions of the State Council adjusted personnel, Tang Wandong called to ask Tang Yi for his opinion, and asked him if he had any recommendation from a director-level cadre, saying that it was a construction mouth. Although Tang Yi didn't know which department of the Ministry of Construction, but the only place left for himself, it was not bad, Tang Yi thought about it left and right, and finally circled Li Liang, Li Liang is very cautious, but he will never be soft when he should be ruthless, and tolerate Wu Fengjuan's various rumors and stoic, which also makes Tang Yi believe that he can gain a foothold in the Ministry of Construction.
