Chapter 676: Zhou Jiqing's Provocation
After Secretary Lu explained at length the reason for convening the Standing Committee today, there was a brief silence in the conference room, and everyone was thinking carefully about the meaning of Secretary Lu's words, and thinking about how to express their position.
Zhou Jiqing knew that Secretary Lu's words were aimed at him, and he also knew that his accusation against the 5.16 task force was actually criticizing himself, the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee who presided over the behind-the-scenes work of the task force, without naming him, so when Secretary Lu said the last, his face turned redder and uglier, and by the time Secretary Lu finished speaking, he was already furious.
He was originally a short-tempered, unruly and reckless man, compared with Qin Ge, Xie Hongda and others, the city government is not so deep, it is a temper that jumps at the touch of a button, and now he is criticized by Secretary Lu without naming him, and the position in Secretary Lu's words is obvious: he supports and supports Li Runji, and repeatedly says that the young cadre surnamed Ye in Xinleng County has been wronged, and someone wants to falsely accuse and frame him, which makes him both annoyed and unconvinced,
So, he grabbed the meaning of Secretary Lu's words to protect Ye Ming, and retorted with a red face and a thick neck: "Secretary Lu, I can't accept your criticism just now, the 5.16 task force was sent by me, and I have always been leading this task force to carry out the investigation work, I have the most right to speak about the inside story of this case, about Ye Ming's question, you said that someone deliberately wronged him, and someone wanted to use Ye Ming's matter to rectify Comrade Runji, I think your words are a bit biased and unfair,
"As far as I know: all of Ye Ming's problems, including his bribery, prostitution, and shielding and protecting the underworld leader Gong Zhichao, were all reported by local insiders in Xinleng, and there is conclusive evidence, it is not that the task force fabricated his illegal and criminal facts out of thin air, and all those posts and reports about him on the Internet and in the media, the people who posted them attached videos and related evidence materials, and they were not fabricated casually, 5.16 The task force summoned Ye Ming according to the evidence provided by the whistleblower. What's wrong with this,
"As for saying that Ye Ming's matter involves Comrade Runji, we didn't expect this in advance, and it was not our task force that first broke out this information, but some insiders in Xinleng who broke the news to the media and reporters, and it was not the task force that instructed the reporters to release this information, and, as you just said: those who are clear are self-purifying, and those who are turbid are self-turbid, if Comrade Runji has nothing to do with that Ye Ming's matter, the organization will find out clearly, and it will not be possible to put it on this Standing Committee to discuss this matter.
"Today, since Secretary Lu has convened such a meeting, then I will take this opportunity to inform you about the progress of the Xinleng 5.** case and the direction of the next investigation: According to the repeated investigation and verification of the task force, Ye Ming did collude with Gong Zhichao, the leader of the underworld in Xinleng, and indeed used his relationship to obstruct the investigation of Gong Zhichao by the Municipal Party Committee of K City, so that he escaped the sanctions, and finally caused the Xinleng 5.16 bloody case.
As the secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Committee, I solemnly make a suggestion to Secretary Lu: The investigation and handling of the Xinleng 5.16 case is now the responsibility of the task force, and it is also a criminal investigation, and there is no need for the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee to discuss such a specific case, let alone interfere in the investigation of this case, I think today's meeting can end here, and there is no need to continue."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the participants showed surprise and surprise, and many members of the Standing Committee turned their eyes to Zhou Jiqing, feeling that his last words were too much, and even Qin Ge glared at him with dissatisfied eyes, obviously blaming him for not saying such things that were obviously against Secretary Lu on such occasions.
Only Wang Hai and Xie Hongda showed a hint of schadenfreude on their faces, and they felt extremely happy in their hearts.
Li Runji's face turned purple because of anger, his fists clenched "gurgle", and he just wanted to stretch out his palm to slap the table, ready to scold Zhou Jiqing, but saw Secretary Lu staring at him, his eyes were gentle and calm, and he winked at him imperceptibly, signaling him not to be impulsive,
Li Runji saw that Secretary Lu was calm, and he was not angry because of Zhou Jiqing's rude and offensive words, knowing that he must have an idea in his heart, so he swallowed hard and reluctantly suppressed the anger in his heart,
There was an embarrassing silence in the conference room again,
Zhou Jiqing's last few words were actually planned for a long time, just to test Secretary Lu and see how he would react to such words that offended him by his subordinates: if he was furious, it would prove that he lacked self-cultivation, and he would definitely leave an impetuous impression on the participants; If he is discouraged and compromises with himself, it proves that he is not authoritative enough and incapable, all in all, no matter how Secretary Lu responds, it may damage his image,
After seeing that Secretary Lu didn't react to his provocation for a while, Zhou Jiqing thought that Secretary Lu was afraid of himself, and saw that Wang Hai, Xie Hongda and others were looking at him with encouraging eyes, so he couldn't help but be a little complacent, so he continued: " On the question of whether or not to continue to discuss the Xinleng 16 May case, I think we can also vote on it now: If the majority of comrades feel that it is necessary to discuss this case at the Standing Committee, then we will continue to discuss it; if the majority of comrades feel that there is no need to discuss such a case here, then we will not discuss it, and Secretary Lu will decide whether to discuss other major issues. ”
As soon as he said this, Secretary Lu suddenly stood up, waved his hand and said: "Comrade Jiqing, there is no need to vote by raising your hands, since you, the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, feel that there is no need to discuss the 5.** case here, then we will not discuss it, and now I announce: adjournment." ”
Secretary Lu's move once again made the participants inexplicable, even Zhou Jiqing didn't expect Secretary Lu to suddenly announce the dissolution of the meeting, there was a feeling of punching in the air, standing there stunned for a long time, before walking out of the conference room full of suspicion,
Li Runji followed Secretary Lu to his office and asked a little puzzled: "Secretary Lu, what is the purpose of you convening this meeting today, why did you suddenly stop opening it in the middle of the meeting, is it because you are afraid that Zhou Jiqing will not be able to do it." ”
Secretary Lu turned around, smiled and said: "I held this meeting today to give Zhou Jiqing a chance, but also to wake him up, knock and knock him, see if he can restrain himself from the precipice, and stop doing any more tricks, in that case, maybe we can coexist peacefully with him for a while, but, judging from the current situation, he is obsessed, I am already benevolent and righteous, and if I can't persuade him, then I can only come hard...... By the way, what is the situation in Texas, does Zhou Jiqing's woman control it? ”
Li Runji nodded suddenly and said, "At noon, I got a report from the Texas Commission for Discipline Inspection that they have controlled her and are organizing a surprise trial. ”
