Ye Ming didn't expect Secretary Lu's eyes to be so sharp and his feelings would be so keen, just based on the passage he said in defense of Wang Xiuguang, he guessed the reason and purpose of his words, his face suddenly turned red, and he lowered his head a little panicked, not daring to meet Secretary Lu's gaze. [No pop-ups]

When Secretary Lu saw Ye Ming's somewhat panicked and flustered expression, he couldn't help but feel a sense of pity in his heart, and at the same time, he also regretted that he shouldn't have said the matter of his negotiation with Wang Xiuguang so bluntly just now, so that he was taken aback - in fact, Secretary Lu's original intention in saying this was to teach him a little political wisdom and experience in mixing officialdom, and to tell him how to see the essence through the phenomenon, and how to judge the reasons and motives for saying these words according to the words of some people.

However, when he saw Ye Ming's worried and panicked expression, he was afraid that if he continued to talk about it, he would be even more embarrassed - after all, this son of his own, although he was smart and capable, also had a strong comprehension. However, he is still a complete "layman" in the officialdom now, and he does not have the ability of those old officials to be tactful, not surprised when dealing with changes, and not to lie without blushing. What's more, he is facing himself today, the authoritative secretary of the provincial party committee, and if he suddenly exposes the trick of his negotiation with Wang Xiuguang, he will definitely panic in his heart, and he will definitely be uneasy, for fear that he will blame them......

Therefore, Secretary Lu didn't dare to say that he and Wang Xiuguang had discussed the matter of coming to see him, but instead comforted him with a pleasant face: "Child, you don't have to worry. Wang Xiuguang asked you to help me come to defend his matter, this is also human nature, I can understand it, and I will not blame you or Wang Xiuguang. You tell me: Did Wang Xiuguang follow you to the provincial capital? I have not met this person, and I don't have any in-depth understanding of him, but I have learned about his basic situation through some people who know him in the provincial party committee. As for his character, morality, and whether he was an honest official, I did not know any of these circumstances. You should have been in contact with him these days, what do you think of him as an official? What is the reputation in your local area? If you want to help him, what is your reason for helping him? Child, I have a more direct question, but don't worry, just speak freely. ”

Ye Ming heard that Secretary Lu had been very affectionately calling himself a "child" after Xia Chuchu left, and the words were full of kindness and kindness, and he didn't blame himself at all, so he gradually settled down in his heart, raised his head and plucked up the courage to say: "Secretary Lu, you guessed right, Mayor Wang came to the provincial capital with me." When he heard that I was coming to you, he did ask me to tell you about what happened last time.

"In the past few days, I have had a lot of contact with Mayor Wang and have learned a little about him. I think that Mayor Wang is a very capable and honest official, but his disadvantage is that he is more anxious and a little impetuous. But on the whole, he is a good official who wants to do practical things and can do practical things, and his official reputation and reputation on our side are also good.

"Moreover, Director Xu Fei of our Municipal Bureau has been in contact with Mayor Wang for many years and knows him well. I promised to help Mayor Wang come to you to explain to him this time, which is also what our Director Xu Fei meant. Director Xu told me: Mayor Wang is a righteous person, very emotional, and willing to help others. This time, Kang Wenxiang deceived him, and he also took advantage of Mayor Wang's emotional point. ”

In the process of Ye Ming's narration, Secretary Lu has been listening attentively, and at the same time, his mind is also running at high speed, thinking about how to deal with this problem: Originally, he had made up his mind that Wang Xiuguang must be removed this time. At the very least, he should be removed from his position as mayor, and he should be casually assigned to some idle provincial department, so that he can spend the rest of his life together. The reason for this, first of all, is not because he offended Ye Ming, but because he and Qing Tao, the secretary of the municipal party committee of K city, have always been at odds, and they are constantly fighting openly and secretly, which has led to the continuous weakening of the cohesion and combat effectiveness of the municipal party committee of K city, which has directly affected the economic and social development of the city. Moreover, these two people are very capable, and they also have a group of people to follow, and the "fight in the nest" is getting more and more powerful, and there is a momentum of "one mountain cannot tolerate two tigers". If one of them is not removed, the city committee of K City will one day become a mess.

And between Qingtao and Wang Xiuguang, Secretary Lu admires Qingtao more. The last time I went to K city for research, Qing Tao has been with him, so that he also has a certain understanding of the secretary of the municipal party committee, and feels that he has good ability, clear thinking, and ambition and specific ideas for developing and building K city. It's just that because he had to spare time and energy to fight against Wang Xiuguang, many of his ideas and blueprints were difficult to put into action.

Therefore, after Secretary Lu learned that Wang Xiuguang ordered the arrest of Ye Ming, he was angry, so he directly criticized Wang Xiuguang by name at the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, and strengthened his determination to get rid of Wang Xiuguang, and he had already communicated with several Standing Committee members.

However, Secretary Lu didn't expect that his son would now come to defend Wang Xiuguang in person. He knows that this son of his is very face-saving and very strong. Moreover, with his character, he will not easily ask for intercession from officials. He is doing this today, and there must be his reasons. If he rejects him and doesn't give him face, he will definitely have a sense of shame and frustration, and it will definitely hit his self-confidence, and it will also make those leaders behind him who have pinned their hopes on him feel disappointed in him.

No matter which of the above situations, it will have an extremely negative impact on Ye Ming's future career development and the establishment of personal relationships, and it will definitely hurt his self-esteem. And such a consequence is something that Secretary Lu absolutely does not want to see.

So, he immediately made a decision in his heart: no matter what kind of person Wang Xiuguang is, he must buy his son's face this time, and he must let Wang Xiuguang and Ye Ming's leaders who know about this matter know that Ye Ming has the ability to backstage, and he can talk to them and get things done for them. In this way, Ye Ming's prestige in their local officialdom can be established, and his leaders can also pay attention to him, rely on him, and spare no effort to help him and promote him......

Thinking of this, Secretary Lu's face became more kind, and he looked at his son with encouragement and appreciation, nodded and said, "Child, I believe what you said." You go back and tell Wang Xiuguang: Work hard, don't have ideological baggage. For his problem, the provincial committee carefully considered it, so that he could rest assured! ”
