According to the notice from above, Yuan Kegong, secretary of the provincial party committee, will come to Xinpi County next Monday to inspect the situation, and the Pingchuan City Party Committee and Municipal Government and Xinpi County attach great importance to it. In the past few days, Lian Yu has held meetings one after another, discussing things about welcoming Yuan Kegong. In addition to a few predetermined points, the city management was also instructed to take the lead and the public security to form a joint administrative law enforcement team to carry out surprise inspections and rectification of the city's appearance.

Although Yuan Kegong stayed in Xinpi County for a day, it was impossible to see it everywhere, but it is said that the secretary of the provincial party committee came down to inspect and investigate, and never followed the predetermined route of the people below. For the sake of safety, it is necessary to spread out the problem in an all-round way, leave no blind spots, carry out a comprehensive and comprehensive management with great momentum, and eliminate all unstable factors in advance.

All streets, townships, neighborhood committees, and village committees were all dispatched, and everyone was nervous to keep the streets clean and tidy, and strictly guarded them, and the leaders of the urban management even did not fit their eyes 24 hours a day, for fear that something would go wrong, and it was a trivial matter to be reprimanded by the secretary of the company, and they would not be able to support their families if they lost their black hats. Many grassroots clerks were blistering at the mouth, looking forward to the secretary of the provincial party committee coming to inspect quickly, going through the motions, and not tossing everyone anymore.

Yuan Kegong really did not play according to common sense, just went to work on Wednesday, Lian Yu received a call from the city, Secretary Yuan came in advance, and the team was almost in Pingchuan City. Lian Yu's nerves tensed suddenly, and the original plan was that the four teams in the county rushed to Pingchuan City to meet him, but now it must be too late, so he can only take Plan B. He hurriedly called Ma Yang and asked him to immediately arrange for people to plant colorful flags and hang banners on both sides of the expressway; Inform the leaders of the four sets of teams, dress neatly, and quickly go to the highway entrance to greet them; Notify the Public Security Bureau to dispatch a road car; notify the traffic police to close the road to martial law; Inform the TV station to bring all the equipment and follow the whole filming.

Listening to Lian Yu's arrangement, Li Xiaoning frowned slightly. Now the central government has repeatedly ordered that high-level ushers in and send them to the country, and even the central leaders will not block the road when they travel, isn't this a crime against the wind? However, when he told Lian Yu his opinion, Lian Yu didn't even argue with him, glared at him directly, turned his head and left.

Li Xiaoning had no choice, so he had to follow everyone to the highway. Who knew that not long after arriving, Lian Yu's phone rang again, and after he picked it up, he only called "Mayor Qin." He began to nod his head incessantly, and his face became more and more stiff.

Hanging up the phone, Yao Donglin immediately asked, "What did Mayor Qin say?" ”

Lian Yu said with a calm face: "Mayor Qin said that they went to meet them at the highway entrance, but they were criticized by Secretary Yuan, let us all go back and meet them in front of the county government." ”

"Shall we go back then?" Yao Donglin asked again.

Lian Yu shook his head and said, "I can't go back." ”

"Why?" Yao Donglin asked puzzledly, "Doesn't Secretary Yuan like this?" ”

Lian Yu said in a deep voice: "Whether the leader likes it or not, it is different from whether you do it or not." Sometimes it is an honor to be criticized by the leader. It is better to be criticized for going too far, than to fail to do it. ”

Li Xiaoning, who was standing next to Lian Yu, shook his head slightly in his heart when he heard this. The following officials attach too much importance to ushering in and sending them off, and their minds are all about how to cater to their superiors, no wonder people's livelihood has not improved.

After waiting for nearly two hours at the highway, Yuan Kegong's convoy finally came, with a road car in front, followed by a Coaster, and then four Audis with Pingchuan license plates, which should be the leadership team of Pingchuan City.

Yuan Kegong was in a very bad mood at this time, he came down this time, almost a light car, he only brought a Coaster and a police car responsible for security, and the entourage was only the secretary general of the provincial party committee, the vice governor in charge of rural economic work, and the secretary Fang Jingwen, and a few staff members. At present, the central authorities are very strict in investigating extravagance and bureaucratic style, and many leading cadres have been taken off because they wore watches, drank high-end red wine, and smoked high-end cigarettes. As the secretary of the provincial party committee, he is the focus of everyone everywhere, and he must be more careful in this regard.

Yuan Kegong suddenly came down ahead of schedule this time, on the one hand, to be able to see what he wanted to see, and on the other hand, to prevent them from engaging in high-level reception. Unexpectedly, his motorcade was taken aback as soon as it arrived in Pingchuan City, and the colorful flags at the high-speed entrance were unfurled, and the crowds were surging, and the greeting team was more than a mile long. Angry, he didn't even get off the highway, and went directly to Xinpi County, asking the secretary Fang Jingwen to call Su Wenming, secretary of the Pingchuan Municipal Party Committee, and asked him and Mayor Qin Fengxiang to drive behind.

Who would have thought that this would be the case in Xinpi County, and from a distance I saw colorful flags waving at highway intersections, more than a dozen cars parked, several TV cameras coming, and police officers pushing passing vehicles to the side along the way.

Yuan Kegong couldn't help frowning, and said angrily: "What the hell! Jingwen, you immediately call Su Wenming and ask him if it doesn't work for me, the secretary of the provincial party committee, or if it doesn't work for him, the secretary of the municipal party committee? Ignore them and just move on! The latter sentence was said to the driver.

Lian Yu and the members of several sets of teams in the county were looking forward to it, seeing the convoy coming, Lian Yu was in good spirits, his face was full of enthusiastic smiles, his body leaned forward slightly, and he put on a posture of being ready to rush up and shake hands with the leader at any time.

The big guy was dumbfounded, and at this moment Lian Yu's mobile phone rang, and Qin Fengxiang's angry voice came from the other end of the phone: "Lian Yu, what the hell are you doing!" Didn't I tell you not to greet you at the highway entrance? Are you turning a deaf ear to my words? Let me tell you, now Secretary Yuan is very angry! See how I clean you up when I turn around. ”

Even the jade face turned white with fright, and now the horse's fart slapped on the horse's leg, Secretary Yuan was very angry, and the consequences were very strict! Nervously, he led everyone to drive after him.

The convoy drove some way forward, and Coaster came to a stop on the side of the road. Everyone behind didn't know what was going on, so they hurriedly got out of the car, but they didn't dare to step forward, and just stood anxiously by the side of the car and waited.

The Coaster car door opened, Fang Jingwen got out of the car, and walked over to greet everyone. Su Wenming and Qin Fengxiang immediately led everyone to greet them, ready to shake hands with Fang Jingwen.

Fang Jingwen didn't stretch out his hand, but when there were still a few steps left, he said, "Secretary Yuan said that he won't get out of the car, just go directly." ”

Several leaders stood at the same time, ready to turn around and get on the bus again. Fang Jingwen said seemingly casually: "Comrade Xiaoning, let's go to Coaster." Show us the way. ”

This seemingly random sentence made the faces of everyone present change greatly. What is the rhythm of this? The secretary of the municipal party committee, the mayor, the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, the deputy mayor, and the secretary of the county party committee are all here, so it shouldn't be Li Xiaoning's turn as the acting county magistrate! Even if you really want to lead the way, you shouldn't ask Li Xiaoning, a newcomer, to lead the way!

"Could it be that Li Xiaoning has something to do with Secretary Yuan?" The thought crossed the mind of almost everyone present, but no one said it.

Li Xiaoning didn't expect Yuan Kegong to let himself get into his special car, but then he understood the intention of Yuan Kegong's move. Judging from the number of welcoming roads in Pingchuan City and Xinpi County, these people are all masters who are good at flattery, and if they are led by these people, Yuan Kegong can't see what he wants to see at all. Li Xiaoning is different, he just came to Xinpi County not long ago, and he didn't join the same stream so quickly, and in the previous Pingchuan anti-crime operation, Li Xiaoning and Yuan Kegong had a deal. Yuan Kegong could also see that Li Xiaoning was a relatively upright person, and he was a person who dared to tell the truth.

In the eyes of envy, jealousy and hatred of everyone, Li Xiaoning calmly walked towards Coaster, and when he passed by Lian Yu's side, Secretary Lian said with a dark face, "Don't talk nonsense!" Li Xiaoning didn't hear it and walked straight over. The angry Lianyu's face darkened even more.

Li Xiaoning is also a person who has worked as a secretary, and he knows that if he wants to know the leader's thoughts, he must first get clichés from the secretary's mouth, so when he passed by Fang Jingwen's side, he asked in a low voice: "How is Secretary Yuan's feelings?" ”

"Not very happy! But it feels okay! Fang Jingwen replied ambiguously.

Although Fang Jingwen's answer was relatively tactful, Li Xiaoning still heard what he wanted to know. Yuan Kegong was very dissatisfied with the approach of Pingchuan City and Xinpi County in greeting, so he was not very happy. But his opinion of Li Xiaoning hasn't changed, so he feels okay.

Knowing this, Li Xiaoning was a little determined, and when he arrived at the door of the Coaster car, he pulled back a little, and only after Fang Jingwen got into the car did he step on.

As soon as I got into the car, before the door was completely closed, I heard Yuan Kegong say: "Li Xiaoning, you sue me, have you received the document issued by the province before?" ”

This brainless sentence made Li Xiaoning stunned, but he knew that he would definitely not be able to ask what the text was at this time, so he nodded quickly and said, "Received!" ”

"Got it, you're still doing this with me? That's how you implement the spirit of the provincial instructions? Yuan Kegong's tone was a little angry.

Li Xiaoning heard that Yuan Kegong was angry about what he was welcome, to be honest, he was very wronged, it should be Su Wenming, it should be Qin Fengxiang, it should be Lian Yu, he just received it on behalf of others; But he knew very well that he must not shout injustice at this time, Yuan Kegong did not train those people, but came to discipline him, not that Yuan Kegong was confused, but that Yuan Kegong regarded him as his own. And at this time, he can't take the opportunity to sue Lian Yu and the others, in that case, Yuan Kegong will also be dissatisfied with him. The most taboo in officialdom is to sue superiors.

So Li Xiaoning immediately took the responsibility on himself, walked to Yuan Kegong's side, lowered his head and said: "What the chief criticizes is that we didn't do our job well. On behalf of the county party committee, the county government, and the company secretary, I reviewed it to the chief. ”

"I don't want your review, I want you to make up for it!" Yuan Kegong waved his hand and said, "Hurry up and sit down and show us the way." You know where to take us, right? ”

Where to go, Li Xiaoning naturally knows; But where to sit, Li Xiaoning was worried.
