Chapter 872 Bottom Line, Political Philosophy

Gu Xiangguo realized that it was not a straight hook, but a combination of punches. If he dares to intervene again to obstruct the further excavation of the case behind Leng Zhifang, then the matter of his lover will no longer be a secret, and it will also become a laughing stock for everyone in the municipal party committee compound after dinner

What to do? Gu Xiangguo put down Lu Hongzhan's phone and sweated profusely. He can't sit still, he must fight back to keep everything he has now. By the way, he patted his head, went to the capital, and put pressure from top to bottom.

Gu Xiangguo didn't know that Xia Xiang wanted to go to the capital to recuperate, but in fact, he was one step ahead of him to dredge up the relationship, because Xia Xiang knew very well what kind of uproar would be caused in Lang City because of a coke case in the next step*.

In fact, at the beginning, Xia Xiang didn't expect that so many people would be involved behind the Jiaodian case, and he didn't realize that Jiaodian was not an isolated model, but the epitome of countless unjust, false and wrongful cases

After Xia Xiang learned from the investigation and evidence collection of Yingcheng and Li Fei that after nearly half a year of open investigation and secret visits, as well as a new round of investigation and evidence collection caused by the Jiaodian case, and then Li Fei dug up a lot of valuable clues from Leng Zhifang's fourth wife Xu Lili and Gu Xiangguo's lover Xu Shanshan through various channels, and finally summarized and verified that the amount of corruption and bribery from Leng Zhifang was at least more than 40 million yuan.

If the above is not the decisive factor that makes Xia Xiang angry and determined to bring down Gu Xiangguo, the key point is that behind Leng Zhifang's 40 million yuan of stolen money, there are countless bloody shouts and unwillingness, and the lives and blood and tears of the low-level people who have nowhere to redress. Xia Xiang is not impulsive justice, nor is it a reckless omission, he has been an official for many years, and he also knows that it is impossible for a person to be as clean as water in the officialdom, but he can barely accept gifts from some illegal businessmen, if the embezzled money is obtained by bending the law for personal gain and disregarding people's lives, he can't bear it at all.

As the last justice of the people, if the law loses its credibility, what fairness can there be in society? What hope is there for the people? What cohesion is there in the human heart?

Especially when Xia wanted to see one case after another that was obviously insufficient evidence but still pronounced a verdict, he would inevitably be angry, and he could hardly suppress the anger in his heart

The 40 million stolen money is behind the tragedy of how many families are ruined and people die, and how many people make it miserable every day. And Gu Xiangguo hid behind Leng Zhifang, aiding and abusive, or secretly appearing, or indirectly, in short, for his own selfishness, he ruined the happiness of countless families.

Perhaps many more have already been executed and become the ghosts of the guns.

And then there is Gu Xiangguo, as the biggest backer of Oh Chen Zailang City, how much Lang City's normal business order has been damaged openly and secretly, and because he is a tiger, let Oh Chen do whatever he wants in Lang City, which is also the culprit who causes the situation in Lang City to be complicated and the economic situation cannot be opened.

Gu Xiangguo will not fall, Lang City will not be peaceful, oh Chen will not be uprooted.

Therefore, under the combination of various factors, inspired by the Jiaodian case, Xia Xiang finally decided to start a full-scale war against Gu Xiangguo - not a war, to put it mildly, it is to return a blue sky to Lang City, and to put it mildly, it is to remove the biggest stumbling block on the way forward for Lang City to open up the situation and gain a foothold in Lang City.

Since there is no indication of what he is doing now, it proves that his current actions in Lang City have not satisfied the people behind the scenes, and since this is the case, Xia Xiang must make persistent efforts to continue to promote his governing philosophy in Lang City. Now he has a faint feeling that he still has a way to go on the road in Langshi, and moving Tu Yun in front and taking the opportunity to overturn Ma Yangtian can only be regarded as the first step, then the second step will establish his weight in the minds of the people behind the scenes. It is not enough to have the skill of political struggle, but it is also necessary to have achievements in economic construction and political achievements.

But he is only the executive vice mayor, not the mayor, and no matter how much he has political achievements, he will be taken away by the secretary and the mayor. Achievements are for politics, and in the same way, only when politics has the right to speak, it is possible to do practical things that are beneficial to the people of Lang City.

Gu Xiangguo is not as ostentatious as Tu Yun, he is very connotative. It's not as cold and dark as Oh Chen, he also has a bright side. He hides the deepest and the most attentive, so it's hard for people to get hold of him. At the same time, Yingcheng and Li Fei found out several unjust, false and wrongful cases, each of which was a bloody human tragedy, which finally made it difficult for Xia Xiang to suppress the anger in his heart, and decided that he must use a series of thunderous means to capsize Gu Xiangguo.

He also knew that the forces behind Gu Xiangguo were very huge, and if he was not well prepared, it would be easy to be bitten by snakes if he could not fight snakes. This is also the reason why Xia Xiang has been careful and careful on Gu Xiangguo's issue, originally with the evidence in his hands now, although it will not let Gu Xiangguo fall off, it is not difficult to give him a punishment on his back.

What Xia Xiang is worried about is that if he just gave Gu Xiangguo a punishment, and thus angered the people behind Gu Xiangguo, he would either be attacked by Gu Xiangguo and Oh Chen, or he might be removed from his position - the rumors released in the first two times were not only tricky, but also a warning with a clear purpose.

This time he went to the capital, Xia Xiang wanted to preempt Gu Xiangguo, lay out in advance in the capital, and beware that when things were progressing to a critical juncture, the counterattack of the forces behind Gu Xiangguo would make him lose all his achievements.

Xia Xiang's original intention was to come to the capital to see Lao Gu first, after all, he didn't talk to Lao Gu for a short time, and he also had many questions to ask Lao Gu, but as soon as the car arrived in the capital, he received an unexpected phone call, and there was a beautiful woman who wanted to meet him.

It's pay first.

Since the last hijacking, Fu Xianxian has disappeared as if he had disappeared, and there has been no news. Xia Xiang didn't care at all, knowing that Fu Xianxian was a freewheeling girl, and he didn't bother to think about where she was and what she was doing.

Fu Xianxian's phone call came very suddenly, and her words were also abrupt: "Where are you?" I want to meet you. ”

"......" Although Xia Xiang was used to Fu Xianxian's whimsical thinking, he still couldn't adapt to seeing him as soon as he came up, "I'm in the capital, and I'm about to see someone, it's urgent." ”

"In the capital? That's great. Fu Xianxian directly ignored Xia Xiang's words that he had something urgent, but said excitedly, "I'm in Quanjude, give you an hour to come and see me." If it's late, you'll never see me again, hmph, you can do it. ”

Then the phone was cut off.

Xia Xiang has just entered the Fourth Ring Road, but fortunately he hasn't made an appointment with Lao Gu yet, otherwise he really can't go to the appointment of Fu Xianxian. Xia Xiang didn't believe Fu Xianxian's threatening words, but he also knew that although she sometimes looked very noisy on the surface, she was actually not a person without a score.

Just go, who is afraid of whom, anyway, he came to the capital, and besides, he just wanted to see if Fu Xianxian was completely back to normal now, so as not to leave any psychological trauma.

In an hour, Xia Xiang finally arrived at the meeting place, and when he arrived at the room, Fu Xianxian was wearing a long dress, long hair, and a pair of glasses without lenses, sitting at the table, quiet and beautiful, like Zhilan. She seems to have changed her perfume because the scent that hits her face is completely different from her previous scent. In the past, it was warm and unrestrained, but now it is elegant and distant, just like the fragrance of oak flowers.

Xia Xiang sat opposite Fu Xianxian, and before he could speak, Fu Xianxian pouted: "What do you mean by being so far away from me?" ”

Xia wanted to smile, so she got up and sat next to her, she smiled again, put the menu in her hand, and clapped her hands: "Order the food, what do I order, what do you eat, do you have any opinions?" ”

"Yes, but I'd better keep it for now." Xia Xiang is the least picky about what he eats, he has no opinion on what to eat, but he has a small opinion when he suddenly appears first and wants to meet him without saying the reason, "First, what are you looking for me?" ”

Fu Xian first stretched out his hand to hold Xia Xiang's arm, and his voice was extremely gentle: "I just want to see you, can't I?" You're really, and as soon as we meet, you impatiently ask me what's the matter, won't you ask me if I'm okay now, if I miss you or something......"

"......" Xia Xiang's mind is not on gentleness, no matter how amorous a man is, there are times when he is not affectionate, he also knows that he has neglected Fu Xianxian's emotional needs, so he reached out and patted her back gently, "Looking at your careful dress now, I know that you have stepped out of the shadows and changed your mood." ”

"Hypocrisy, insincere" Fu Xianxian was dissatisfied, but the smile in her eyes betrayed her emotions, she still stretched a lot, and the arms holding Xia Xiang became tighter, "Xia Xiang, do you think my current appearance is more eye-catching than before?" ”

It must be admitted that Fu Xianxian is an eye-catching beauty, extraordinary and eye-catching, and once made Xia Xiang wonder if she and Fu Xianfeng are brothers and sisters, because Fu Xianxian's face is gloomy, and he can't see anything handsome, and Fu Xianxian has the wild and sunny nature of a little witch - of course, it may have something to do with the different personalities of the two.

Xia Xiang also told the truth, praised Fu Xianxian for a few words, said that she was beautiful, said that she had a temperament, and said that she had a charming side, I thought that after a few words, Fu Xianxian would giggle, but before the words were finished, Fu Xianxian cried loudly, crying so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, and the tears flew from tears, completely wetting Xia Xiang's arms and clothes.

"What's wrong?" Xia Xiang comforted Fu Xianxian softly.

"It's okay, it's okay." Fu Xianxian was unusually flustered, pushed Xia Xiang away, hurriedly wiped away his tears, and smiled reluctantly, "I'm looking for you today, I really have something to do...... I heard that you and Gu Xiangguo don't get along? ”

Xia Xiang nodded, Fu Xian was the Fu family first, he must know something, and then it was an open secret, so there was no need for him to deny it.

"Fu Xianxian's evidence of Gu Xiangguo in his hand, the ...... I overheard last time" Fu Xianxian, who had returned to normal, had a cunning look on his face and blinked, "Do you want me to help you get it?" ”

Xia Xiang also had to blink, Fu Xianxian was not lying to him, her expression told him that she really wanted to do something to repay him, but asking her to secretly steal Gu Xiangguo's evidence was a bit out of line with his principles for him.

Xia wanted to refuse.

It is not surprising that Fu Xianfeng has Gu Xiangguo's evidence in his hands, the cooperative relationship between the Fu family and Gu Xiangguo is not close, and it is not reliable, whether Fu Xianfeng is intentional or unintentional, and what is his purpose in getting Gu Xiangguo's evidence, it is not in Xia Xiang's consideration, the only thing that worries him is that Fu Xianxian, a once innocent little witch, began to step into the whirlpool of political right and wrong because of his reasons, which made him feel uneasy.

Fu Xian saw Xia Xiang's embarrassment, and she suddenly grabbed Xia Xiang's hand: "Just let me do something for you, okay?" Otherwise, I won't be at ease for the rest of my life. If you don't say yes, I'll be, I'll never let you see me. ”

Fu Xianxian's threat was powerless, but it was affectionate, Xia wanted to be grabbed by her wet little hand, felt the tenderness of the palm, and knew that she was emotional. Once a woman is emotional, her eyes will be like water, her palms will be sweaty, her expression will be nervous and shy, and Fu Xianxian in front of her is clearly a little girl who is entangled in love.

"Hmm...... Thank you first, have a heart, if you are willing to do it, it's up to you, but be sure to pay attention to safety. Although she secretly did it in her own home, if Fu Xianfeng found out, and then let Fu Xianfeng misunderstand that he instructed Fu Xianxian to do it, the joke would be big.

Fu Xianxian jumped up and quickly kissed Xia Xiang on the face: "I will definitely do it without knowing it, so that Fu Xianxian, his father and grandfather don't know it, hum, I'm angry with them." ”

Fu Xianxian never called Brother Fu Xianxian, but called him by his name, which is also interesting.

Xia Xiang was kissed by force, not feeling embarrassed, and smiled: "First, where have you been recently, why is there no news?" ”

"I didn't go anywhere, I practiced yoga, I exercised, I closed my door and read books, I lived in my own world every day, I wanted to do something, but I didn't know what to do. I want to contact you, but I'm afraid of disturbing you, it's a wasteland for myself anyway. ”

Fu Xianxian has changed a lot, he used to be simple and wild, but now he has more thoughts, more calm, and more heaviness of life. He wanted to comfort Fu Xian for a few words, but he couldn't speak, so he had to shake his head slightly.

After eating a meal for more than an hour, it had been fine, but when it was time to say goodbye, Fu Xianxian suddenly cried again, and she grabbed Xia Xiang's hand again: "If one day, I ask you to do something for me, are you willing?" ”

Xia Xiang didn't hesitate, and nodded heavily: "As long as I can do it." ”

Fu Xianxian was dressed in a long white dress, waving goodbye, Yixi Yiyi's expression was fixed in Xia Xiang's mind for a long time, and it wasn't until he woke up at midnight one day that he knew what the pain in Fu Xianxian's heart was.

……

After more than half a year, I saw Lao Gu again in the courtyard of the deep house in the capital, it was close to midsummer, the leafy courtyard was particularly quiet, and Xia Xiang's mood finally relaxed.

The career path of Langshi is not only ups and downs, but also waves of unsettled waves, which do not give people a chance to breathe, and make people physically and mentally exhausted. The decisive battle is approaching, but there is finally a trace of peace and peace in the heart, strange to say, maybe the calm before the big war is the same as the darkness before the dawn.

Lao Gu's spirit is very good, compared to before, but more strong, he laughed heartily when he saw Xia Xiang, and grabbed Xia Xiang: "Haha, Xiao Xia, the work in Lang City is really good, there are sounds, ups and downs, it's so exciting, it's like a big play." ”

Xia Xiang was speechless, the big drama is good-looking, but it is only relative to the people watching the play, for the people in the play, because they are drawn by the plot in it, or crying or laughing, what they experience is not exciting, but nervous and exciting, and there is not enough sinister for outsiders.

Xia Xiang said: "You are watching the play offstage, I am acting on stage, I am in it, I have all the flavors, old, I can't laugh at it." ”

Lao Gu still smiled cheerfully: "When you should laugh, you have to laugh, people, they all have to move forward in the crawling, touching the mud with one hand, rolling with water, it is called interesting." ”

Xia Xiang's personality is not without a cheerful side, but now that the overall situation is undecided, he really can't laugh.

After a few words of laughter with Lao Gu, he sat down and drank tea. Lao Gu didn't talk about it, and directly cut into the current situation: "You don't have to worry about the situation at the top, there will be a balance in general." You may also know a little about the movement of the army, and the situation is quite favorable. I don't need to say much about the situation in Yan Province, my influence in Yan Province is limited, and I can't help you, you have to rely on yourself. One thing that must be reminded is that the Wu family's move has a deep meaning, and it has the intention of using you to pry into the situation in Lang City......"

The Wu family's intentions Xia Xiang naturally knew it, and Lao Gu's reminder was also kind, so he nodded humbly: "I also know, but the use is mutual, the Wu family can use me, and I can also borrow the power of the Wu family." ”

Lao Gu waved his hand: "I fully believe that you can take advantage of the Wu family's momentum, and I also believe that you will not get too close to the Wu family, but some people will worry that your position will change, so I need to remind you that it is better to keep a distance from the Wu family." ”

Xia wanted to understand Lao Gu's kindness, Lao Gu was a staunch opponent of the family forces, he had a general relationship with the Wu family, and had no dealings with the Fu family, the Mei family, and the Qiu family.

Lao Gu may know him well, but some people are not at ease with him, Xia Xiang also knows that if he wants to straighten out, wants to govern the party, and no longer holds a deputy position, he must stand in line, not to ignore the left and right, and not to walk the tightrope.

In all fairness, Xia Xiang has always had a bottom line in mind about how to deal with the rise of the family power, and what kind of relationship he maintains with the family power, and even the longer-term consideration, when he is in a high position, what kind of political position he should adhere to.

He is very principled, that is, whether it is a family force or other forces, he does not resolutely support or resolutely oppose it, but takes a position of improvisation, that is, no matter which force does good things for the country and the people, he will support it, and if not, he will oppose it.

But at the moment, it seems that sometimes when choosing a position, it is necessary to oppose the family forces unprincipledly, which also makes Xia Xiang feel a headache. But politics is like that, maybe there can be compromises after taking sides, but before taking sides, there must be one one, two two.

I think that when there was a big class struggle in China, father and son turned against each other, and husband and wife became enemies, all because of different political concepts. Now the situation has changed, but it is nothing more than that. Xia Xiang understood that today's meeting with Lao Gu was not easy, and he had to make a clear statement

PS: The second shift, and the next day's 10,000 shift. I don't believe that Lao He's efforts can't get back the sincerity of the brothers, I don't believe that I can't change my sincerity, and I don't believe that I can't ask for a monthly pass. Continue to shout for a monthly pass, or the same sentence, the brothers smashed enough 100 votes today, and tomorrow they will have a monthly pass for three more, Lao He really needs it.
