Chen Jing was left behind almost at the last minute before leaving for Hong Kong.

This time, a total of 42 people from Chujiang Province went to Hong Kong for training, and basically all of them were young cadres at the deputy department level, and there were relatively few cadres at the department level, and he was the only one such a substantive department-level cadre with important influence in the Chujiang political arena.

Judging from the scale and level of this study group, it is obviously much worse than in the Shamingde era.

Some people describe the Shamingde faction as the backbone of the faction, but now this regiment is the real young cadres.

Chen Jing is a young cadre, but his influence is already considered the backbone, so he is very interesting in the team of 42 people this time.

In order to go out to study this time, Chen Jing has made full preparations.

He booked a plane ticket, packed his bags, and found a place to stay in Hong Kong, only to wait for the next day.

But at this time, he received a notice from the ministry asking him to postpone his departure to Hong Kong!

And because of this notice, Chen Jing once again became a figure that everyone paid attention to in the political arena of Chujiang.

Why didn't Chen Jing make the trip? Does the province have a new arrangement for his work and whereabouts?

There were also some people who spread false rumors, saying that someone from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee wanted to put on small shoes for Chen Jing, but an important provincial leader later learned about it and stopped the incident.

And this statement seems to confirm the fact that the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee can't wait to split the Cadre Supervision Department.

The Cadre Supervision Division was split and divided into the First Cadre Supervision Division and the Second Cadre Supervision Division.

The director of the first cadre supervision department is Zhao Anshan, the former deputy director of the cadre supervision department, and Luo Chunlin is the director of the second cadre supervision department. Although the two departments of cadre supervision retained the main backbone of the past, they were dismantled, and then a new group of cadres were added to it, and Chen Jing's shadow gradually faded.

And some people said that this incident was evidence that someone in the organization department wanted to wear small shoes for Chen Jing.

Compared to the various rumors outside, Chen Jing also felt very strange, but he was very smart not to inquire.

He postponed his trip to Hong Kong, and now he has no position. All he can do now is to take a vacation at home, stay closed, and study in peace.

There was a lot of phone calls. Ma Buping, Wu Daming, Hu Yue and others all called.

And the old subordinates of the Cadre Supervision Department, Wang Rupei, Zhang Aihua, etc., also received a lot of calls. Chen Jing has to say the same thing dozens of times a day, but it won't work if he doesn't say it. He can be said to be miserable.

In the end, he simply turned off the phone, leaving only his personal phone, and his ears calmed down.

He stayed at home for a week, and on Saturday afternoon, a weekend, someone came and knocked on his door.

Zhong Xiujuan shouted that someone was looking for him.

Chen Jing came out of the study to the living room, and saw that it was Master Shen who was driving by the provincial party committee.

There are several drivers in the Provincial Party Committee's driver class, among which the drivers of Class 1 are all driving with the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, and Master Shen is the master who drives with Mi Qian.

Don't look at these drivers who are not highly educated and do not have administrative positions. But they are all very good, and they can usually be regarded as the spokesperson of the leader at a certain level, what is Master Shen doing here today?

Lao Shen is in his forties, born in the military, and gives people a very spiritual feeling.

Chen Jing personally made him a cup of tea. said: "Old Shen, why did you come to me today?" It should be okay to go to the Three Treasures Palace, right? ”

Lao Shen knew Chen Jing and had a meal together.

Chen Jing is different from those cadres who have grown up in organs, and the cadres of organs are generally a little cautious, and they usually pay attention to not leaking a drop of water when they speak.

Chen Jing has a factor in his personality that can be used by grassroots men to mingle, so he drank a few glasses of wine with Lao Shen. What he said also fits Lao Shen's identity, so Lao Shen is very impressed by him, and the two sometimes see each other in the courtyard of the provincial party committee, and they will say hello when there is no leader.

Lao Shen took a sip of tea and said, "Director Chen, Minister Mi is going back to Chucheng in the afternoon, and he asked me to make an appointment with you, saying that I want to go to the northern suburbs to have a look!" ”

Chen Jing was stunned and said, "Northern suburbs? ”

Immediately, he reacted that the Monument to the Heroes of Chucheng was in the northern suburbs, and Chen Jing and Mi Qian had been there once.

Mi Qian has now been transferred to the Organization Department of the CPC Central Committee and serves as a deputy minister, although he is only at the level of a deputy minister, but the gold content of this deputy minister level can be said to be quite high.

It should be said that if Mi Qian comes to Chucheng, his schedule will definitely be tight, but in such a tight schedule, he still has time to see himself?

Chen Jing didn't know what it was like to feel in his heart, flattered? Incredible? It doesn't seem like it, it feels complicated.

Mi Qian's serious and cold expression appeared in his mind, Chen Jing was a little afraid to see Mi Qian before, but now, when he thought of Mi Qian's expression, he felt unusually kind.

Chen Jing had few opportunities to contact provincial leaders.

The limited number of contacts with leaders at this level were all in a hurry, and they left soon after meeting.

He simply didn't have time to examine or understand such a high-level leader.

And Mi Qian is relatively the most familiar to Chen Jing.

Mi Qian's organization department has a high prestige, and he himself is indeed very rigorous and fair, and his reputation is quite good.

Chen Jing respected him very much.

"Old Shen, Minister Mi is very busy when he comes back this time, right?" Chen Jing asked.

Lao Shen shook his head and said, "I don't know, he told me to send you to the northern suburbs and help him buy a bouquet of lilies!" ”

……

Although it is already spring, there is still no spring weather in Chujiang.

The suburbs are cold in spring, the land is still desolate, and everything is still the middle of winter.

Chen Jing stood at the foot of the mountain, rubbing his ears with his hands, and stomping under his feet to ward off the cold.

A bouquet of white lilies rested on a bench in the park, blooming in the wind, out of place in the cold weather.

After waiting for an hour, Chen Jing saw an Audi car with a license plate of the provincial party committee driving over here, Chen Jing could see through the license plate that this car should belong to the reception car of the provincial party committee.

He hurriedly went over and stood on the side of the road to greet him, and the car slowly drove over and stopped at the intersection.

Chen Jing saw the people inside, so he went over and opened the car door.

There was only one person in the car, he was dressed very casually, wearing a navy blue long windbreaker, wearing a melon skin hat that the old man of Chujiang usually likes to wear in winter, plus a pair of sunglasses.

This kind of outfit made him look like an ordinary old man in Chu City, not at all like Mi Qian, the famous iron-faced minister in Chu City.

Mi Qian got out of the car, his eyes swept over Chen Jing, frowned slightly, and said, "You've been waiting for a long time, haven't you?" ”

He didn't wait for Chen Jing to reply, so he said: "The plane is delayed, and there are some other things that are delayed, so the time to come over will be postponed." ”

Chen Jing said: "It's not long, that is, for a while!" ”

Mi Qian picked up the white lily bouquet from the bench, looked up at the steps of the Martyrs Park from bottom to top, and said, "Let's climb up, can you do it?" ”

Chen Jing smiled: "You can do it, minister, can I still do it?" ”

Mi Qian glanced back at Chen Jing, stopped talking, and took the lead, one old and one young, and the two slowly climbed up the stairs.

I didn't come out for a whole winter, and Chen Jing didn't climb many steps before he felt that his legs were weak and his waist was sore.

But he looked up at the Mi Qian steps in front of him and was still unhurried, not tired at all, where did he dare to show a tired posture?

He remembered that he had just patted his chest and said okay, and now that he had only taken a few steps, he was out of breath, and his face was a little red.

He gritted his teeth and climbed up step by step behind Mi Qian.

I don't know how long it took, Chen Jing felt that he was faltering and almost collapsed, and finally climbed to the top.

At this time, Chen Jing could no longer hide his weakness and began to gasp for air, and then held his knees with his hands, and the sweat on his head fell drop by drop, falling to the ground, sticking into a cloud of dust beads.

Mi Qian turned his head to look at Chen Jing, with a rare smile on his face: "It's not that young people have better physical strength than the elderly, you are not diligent in your four bodies, I exercise every day, so your big words are a little early!" ”

Chen Jing's face was flushed, half of it was because of the physical exertion of climbing the mountain, and the blood and qi were surging, and half because of shame and inexplicability.

He said: "Minister, you are old and strong, I really can't compare to you!" ”

Mi Qian no longer spoke to Chen Jing, he held the lily, his demeanor became serious and serious, and gradually became solemn again.

He walked slowly to the monument, gently placed the flowers in front of the monument, and carefully arranged the branches with his hands to make it look more beautiful and delicate.

Then he stepped back, his hands folded, his expression complicated and heavy.

Chen Jing hurriedly followed him, maintaining the same posture as him, staring at the words on the tablet with his eyes seriously, suppressing his breathing and gradually calming down.

There was silence all the time, and after about four or five minutes, Mi Qian put down his hand and said, "Okay!" ”

He put on his hat and glasses again, turned around, and walked towards a lush cypress tree in front of the tomb, his eyes looking at Chujiang City not far away.

This is the second time Chen Jing has accompanied Mi Qian to this place, and he knows in his heart that Mi Qian should have come to sweep the tomb today, because he doesn't know where his father's tomb is, but there is no doubt that his father is one of the anti-Japanese heroes.

Therefore, Chen Jing stood far away from Mi Qian, not disturbing his quietness alone.

I don't know how long it took, Mi Qian beckoned to him, and Chen Jing hurriedly walked up to him.

Mi Qian looked him up and down, and after a long time, he said, "Xiao Chen, have you been at home recently?" ”

Chen Jing nodded, and Mi Qian asked again: "What are you doing at home?" ”

Chen Jing replied: "Read!" ”

Mi Qian raised his eyebrows, seemed to be a little interested, and asked, "What books have you been reading lately?" ”

Chen Jing pondered for a moment and said, "In the past few days, I have read three books, one "Dripping Heavenly Marrow Interpretation", one "University", and one "Zi Sizi". ”

Mi Qian was stunned for a while, and suddenly said, "What kind of messy books are they?" ”

Chen Jing's face was very embarrassed, and he didn't know how to answer, he did read these books at home these days, but these books really have nothing to do with him now...
