There is a single room in the north courtyard of the No. 1 Detention Center of the Wushan Public Security Bureau, the environment is good, there is a separate bathroom, there is a TV set to watch videos but you can't see TV programs and news, but every day, newspapers will be delivered.

Zhou Liren lives in this single room, and the investigation of him by the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Supervision Bureau is nearing completion, and it is estimated that he will soon be sent to the procuratorate for justice, which will be a long list of prosecutions, and almost all the high-level officials of the Dawangzhuang Agricultural Economic Group have been spared, in addition to involving three officials at the department level, including Zhang Jinan, the former secretary of the Qinglong County Party Committee, and more than a dozen deputy department and deputy department level or below the ministry.

Zhou Liren has always behaved very indifferently, he should eat, sleep, and read Chairman Mao's quotations several times a day, but this night, he was very angry, because today's evening newspaper was not delivered on time.

No matter how the police persuaded him, whether he reprimanded him or not, whether he was patient and groomed, Zhou Liren just couldn't do it, until the noise alarmed the deputy director on duty, Xia Fatzi, a black and chubby round-faced policeman.

"Uncle Zhou, what's wrong with you?" The smile on Fat Xia's face when he came in was completely different from that of other prisoners.

Zhou Liren's face was very cold, staring straight at Xia Fatzi, and said, "How did you judge it, Weishenme won't let me read the newspaper?" ”

This morning is the day when his youngest son Zhou Xiubo is sentenced, and the evening newspaper will definitely publish the results, but today is the first time that there is no newspaper to read, which makes him have a faint premonition in his heart.

Xia Fatzi scratched his head and said, "The evening newspaper didn't come, Uncle Zhou, I don't know what's going on, so I'll call to urge." ”

"Don't play tricks with me" Zhou Liren's voice immediately raised, "Xiao Xia, let me tell you, I'm not blind, just tell me, how did you judge it?" ”

Xia Fatzi was frightened by Zhou Liren's fire-breathing gaze and took a step back, and the tiger who was imprisoned was still the king of beasts.

After hesitating for a moment, Xia Fatzi knew that he couldn't hide it, and reluctantly smiled: "Uncle, I don't give you the newspaper because I'm afraid that you will be in a hurry, yes, I was sentenced to death, but don't worry, the lawyer of the Xiubo brothers appealed in court, and there will be a turnaround." ”

Death penalty? Zhou Liren's head buzzed, his body staggered, and he almost fell, but Xia Fatzi hurriedly held on.

"Death penalty?" Zhou Liren muttered in his mouth, and a sneer gradually appeared on his face, "Death penalty? Appeal? Slowly broke free of the hand that Xia Fat Man was holding him, and slowly, paced inside, sneering as he walked.

Looking at Zhou Liren's back, a different color flashed in Fat Xia's eyes.

In early May 19, the Wushan City Intermediate People's Court made a first-instance verdict, and the defendant Zhou Xiubo was convicted of rape, intentional wounding, illegal detention and other crimes, and was sentenced to death and deprived of political rights for life.

The day after Zhou Xiubo was sentenced to death, Zhou Liren made a request to see Lin Song and Huo Qinqun

The l10U business suite of Pearl Hotel has been chartered by Lu Zheng as an office for handling official business during non-office hours such as holidays, but as Osan began to implement the "alternate five-day work system", Lu Zheng made it clear that he would work here on Saturdays, and use the weekend time to focus on reviewing less urgent documents.

This business suite has gradually become the "No. 2 room" in the mouth of government office staff. ”

On Friday afternoon, after participating in the reception of the leaders and subordinates in the harbor area, Lu Zheng asked Huzi to drive directly to the Pearl Hotel, and in the second room, Xie Kun and Lei Yongsheng were there.

Xie Kun came early and sent a stack of documents waiting for the leaders to review, and tomorrow Saturday, the leaders can calm down and focus on reviewing them.

In addition, Xie Kun also came to open the door for Lei Yongsheng, and Lei Yongsheng had already made an appointment with the mayor.

After Lu Zheng came in, Xie Kun reported the secretary who would be on duty here tomorrow, and then withdrew.

Tomorrow, Saturday, is the rest day of the next week, and Lei Yongsheng couldn't help but sigh when he heard that Lu Zheng still had to deal with business here: "I'm busy day and night, but some people don't worry about it." ”

Lu Zheng smiled, "Others think the same thing about us, we should be busy, and the secretary of the group is also very busy."

Lei Yongsheng pursed his lips and said, "Busy fighting the fire, right?" ”

Lu Zheng waved his hand, motioned for Lei Yongsheng to sit, and said thoughtfully: "Zhou Liren should have met Lin Song, I don't know what I talked about." ”

Lei Yongsheng shook his head, "I heard from the people in the prison that there was no third person present when the two of them met, and Huo Qinqun refused to see him, which is also obvious. "The rest of the words, Lei Yongsheng didn't say it, if Huo Qinqun went, what if he heard something that shouldn't be heard, what should he do? There is a Lin Song, and there is always a firewall. However, it is estimated that Zhou Liren will not spit out too many things, because in addition to Zhou Xiubo, he Zhou Liren also has relatives, and if he wants to shake everything out, their old Zhou family is afraid that the end will be even worse.

If you want to spit out someone, it must be the person that Zhou Liren hates the most now, the one who uses money the most on weekdays, and the person who has not given any strength in Zhou Xiubo's case now, so that he can give a wake-up call to the other Yu Ministries in the huge umbrella behind him, whoever wants to go in can go in, and someone will give a strong dose to his family, including Zhou Xiubo's follow-up trial.

Lei Yongsheng pondered that if it was him, he would definitely be like this, and these joints, Mayor Lu naturally wanted to get them.

After pondering for a while, Lei Yongsheng smiled and said: "Mayor, Xiao Xia, the deputy director of a school, is a bad gambler, and after he owes a lot of debts, he began to ask for bribes and embezzlement, and the bureau is investigating him, as if he received a letter and is ready to run away. ”

Lu Zheng nodded, knowing that Lei Yongsheng mentioned such a person to himself inexplicably, there must be follow-ups.

Lei Yongsheng didn't say anything about it, he clicked his mouth and said: "You say, will anyone want to kill Zhou Liren's mouth, for example, if Dawangzhuang's case involves Xiong Zongwu, this person has been on the battlefield and killed people, and he is ruthless, I estimate that he is going to be urgent, he can do anything, and Meng Qinghai is also very ruthless." ”

Lu Zheng knew that Lei Yongsheng was not alarmist, these people had experienced the Cultural Revolution, in that era, anything crazy could happen, and even at the end of the Cultural Revolution, the deputy minister of public security died unexplained, and he was not beaten down and criticized, but died inexplicably in the underground pipeline when he was right, and Zuihou was judged to be a suicide, which involved a power struggle at the highest level, and has been shrouded in a fog.

And now that the media is closed, jishu is backward, and many lids can be covered tightly.

However, Lei Yongsheng's example is not right, Xiong Zongwu, the propaganda minister, although he looks down on himself, but his character should not have any economic involvement with the Zhou family, although he has made great efforts to publicize the red flag of Dawangzhuang.

Lei Yongsheng suddenly smiled and said: "If these people want to kill Zhou Liren's mouth, fake swallowing sleeping pills to commit suicide or something, but if they don't succeed, then it will be lively, and Lao Zhou has to take out all the bottom for them." ”

Linking Lei Yongsheng's context and pondering, Lu Zheng gradually understood what Lei Yongsheng meant, waved his hand and said, "You are alarmist, who would take this risk?" The case of the Zhou family is not just the eyes and ears of our city. ”

Lei Yongsheng smiled: "What you said is also right. ”

Lu Zheng picked up the teacup and said: "Many things must be done in moderation, forcing the tiger to jump over the wall is easy to cause chaos." And Yongsheng, some bottom lines, must be guarded. ”

Lei Yongsheng nodded slowly.

On Saturday afternoon, when Lu Zheng was still reviewing documents in Room No. 2, he received a summons from Secretary-General Lin Song, saying that a meeting of secretaries would be held in Secretary Huo's office at five o'clock.

Obviously, urgently.

When Lu Zheng came to Huo Qinqun's office, everyone was there, except for Ren Zhonghua, who said that he had gastroenteritis and was not in the hospital, the rest of the deputy secretaries were all present, and Zhang Sheng, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, was also present.

Lin Song's face was very solemn, and he handed each person a piece of paperwork, and said as he sent it: "This is the material that Zhou Liren reported to Comrade Meng Qinghai, deputy mayor and director of the Public Security Bureau, and when I talked to Comrade Meng Qinghai, he also confessed. ”

Lu Zheng picked it up and looked at it, it was all a pen of money and gifts, New Year's holidays, Meng Qinghai's relatives' weddings, funerals, etc.

After Lin Song sat down, he continued: "It is preliminarily estimated that Meng Qinghai has probably received more than 100,000 yuan in gifts from Zhou Liren and others in the past two years, and the specific amount needs to be verified, and both of them don't remember it very clearly. Qinghai admitted that he was confused for a while, but he did not think that his behavior constituted bribery, because he did not use his power to help Zhou Liren and others obtain illegal gains, and he was willing to return all the gift money. However, because the amount of money is relatively large, in this extraordinary period, I believe that our cadres should be strictly guarded and that they should not be sick at their posts, so the Discipline Inspection Commission proposed that the Standing Committee be asked to remove Meng Qinghai from his posts as a member of the leading party group of the city government and secretary of the party committee of the city public security bureau, and that the standing committee of the people's congress should be removed from his posts as vice mayor and director of the public security bureau. The Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection will hand over the case to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection and ask the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection to file a case for investigation into his problem. ”

Huo Qinqun nodded, looked at Lu Zheng, and asked, "Mayor, what is your opinion?" ”

Everyone's eyes have looked at the past, the problem of Dawangzhuang Agricultural Economic Group has been overturned for almost half a year, whether it is involved or not, as a member of the municipal party committee, I hope that this matter will be settled soon, as long as the young mayor does not toss, the matter should be about to come to an end, today's meeting, in fact, is to see Lu Zheng's opinion.

Although, everyone knows that Meng Qinghai's problems are likely to be more than this, a bit of a small magnification, Zhou Liren explained these problems, I think it was also carefully considered.

But Meng Qinghai was dismissed and investigated, no matter what happened to Zuihou, even if he was not injured and transferred to other places, the position of director of the public security bureau was always vacant. Zhang Sheng also because Zhou Xiubo's case had just been examined in writing and was warned and punished by the party, so the city bureau may be on the city bureau except for Lao Chu is Hou Jianjun, otherwise, he has to transfer people in from outside, and Chu Dalei and Hou Jianjun are really Lu Zheng's people.

I don't know if Lu Zheng will be satisfied with this result.

So, everyone's eyes were almost on him.

Lu Zheng seemed to ponder for a while, nodded, and said, "I agree with Lao Lin's opinion. ”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Zheng looked at Huo Qinqun again, and said with a smile: "Secretary Qinqun, didn't I tell you a few days ago that I wanted to add an assistant to the mayor?" Now our government team is too busy with various work, and I hope to add an assistant to the mayor to share the burden. ”

Huo Qinqun nodded: "Well, you said, what's the matter, there is a favorite candidate?" ”

Lu Zheng said with a smile: "I think Comrade Wang Qingxiang is very good, in all aspects, he is relatively outstanding in the committee and bureau." ”

Everyone present was slightly stunned, and Huo Qinqun smiled: "Yes, I also know this comrade better."

Lu Zheng snuffed out the cigarette butt and said, "What about the financial bureau, I think I'll put the executive officer, Lao Gao, and Gao Yuzhen on top." ”

The people present suddenly realized that they dared to secretly promote Wang Qingxiang, this mayor's assistant must be the life of being set aside, after all, the mayor's assistant has no name and no points, look at this jiashi, as long as Lu Zheng is here, I am afraid that Wang Qingxiang's assistant will not be promoted, and maybe he will be sent to an unpopular situation after a while.

Lu Zheng came out of the Finance Bureau, and now Wang Qingxiang, director of the Finance Bureau, and Gao Yuzhen, executive deputy director, were both deputy directors under Lu Zheng back then.

Huo Qinqun's face was unchanged, and he nodded: "Today's time is relatively tight, let's discuss it again." ”

After the meeting ended, everyone came out, Lin Song stayed, watching Secretary Huo lock his brows, slowly light a cigarette, and smoke one sip, Lin Song sighed softly in his heart.

Lu Zheng is menacing, and he wants to take the opportunity to replace the person in charge of the finance bureau, but it is not difficult to understand that as the No. 1 city government, he naturally hopes that he can fully command several persons in charge of the most important committees and bureaus in its constituent departments.

Public Security Bureau or Finance Bureau? It seems that there are some seats, and Secretary Huo will inevitably give them up.

Lin Song shook his head, this Lu Zheng has too deep roots in Wushan, it can be seen from Yang Wenxue's case that this person does things by unscrupulous means, but now, he can only write an account for him temporarily, if there is really a day when Secretary Huo and he can't coexist in Wushan, then dig out with a pen and settle the general account with him, that Lei Yongsheng, with the most tails, is the most haode breakthrough.
