Zhao Qigong never thought that his baby son-in-law He Jiaguo would make a big fuss about the lawsuit of Hongfeng Mall after taking office, and he would be openly supported by Li Dongfang, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and Qian Fanxing, Mayor of the city. Qian Fanxing is a person sent by the big boss Zhong Mingren, it is not strange to support this kind of thing that makes him laugh, how can Li Dongfang also stand up and support? Doesn't Li Dongfang know the ins and outs of this? What's even more strange is that why did He Jiaguo have to seize Hongfeng Mall to make a fuss? Is this fanatic having a crazy attack and wants to interpret a story of a clean official who dominates the world, or is there another master behind him, and someone manipulates and uses He Jiaguo to make a political reputation? The political and legal meeting in Xiajiang City was held in the morning, and in the afternoon, many phone calls came, and everything was said. Chen Zhongcheng, secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, who he brought up, also came to make a detailed report, clearly judging that this incident was not accidental, first, there was preparation, and second, there was a background, and the background person was none other than Li Dongfang, who was the secretary of the municipal party committee.

Zhao Qigong really felt that Li Dongfang had no reason to do this. Li Dongfang has been building a team with him for eight years, and he helped him up at a critical time, how could he dismantle his platform at this time? Moreover, their political interests are aligned. He figured out that the problem might still lie with his baby son-in-law, and said that this newly debuted comrade He Jiaguo suffered from the political infantile disease that hot-blooded young people always love: with him, a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and vice governor, he acted as an imaginary enemy and performed a farce of asking for the people's lives, and said that He Jiaguo had a greater ambition behind him, while Li Dongfang was optimistic about his success and took the opportunity to establish his own authority.

As a result, Zhao Qigong's mood turned bad, and he spent the afternoon thinking about how to teach He Jiaguo a lesson. Coincidentally, there was an important foreign affairs event in Xichuan International Hotel that night, and the big boss Zhong Mingren wanted him and Governor Bai to participate, and he couldn't shirk it, so he made a call to He Jiaguo at Xichuan International Hotel, asking He Jiaguo to wait for him at home first.

At the end of the foreign affairs activities, before nine o'clock, Mrs. Liu Lulu came to call, saying that He Jiaguo was honestly waiting at home, and Zhao Qigong hurried home. Unexpectedly, as soon as the car stopped at the gate of No. 2 Courtyard on Liuyin Road, Deng Shuanglin, the president of the court, suddenly walked out of a police car parked under the shadow of the moon, which startled Zhao Qigong.

Zhao Qigong reproached and said: "Comrade Shuanglin, who sent you to stand guard at the door of my house?" What a fame! ”

Deng Shuanglin stammered: "Governor Zhao, I'm ...... I would like to report back to you. ”

Zhao Qigong said angrily: "What are you looking for me to report?" You report to Secretary Li and Mayor Qian! ”

Deng Shuanglin had to report, but Zhao Qigong had to say: "Now I don't have time, He Jiaguo is waiting for me!" ”

Deng Shuanglin's eyes lit up: "That's right, let's report together, and I'll talk about some things!" ”

Zhao Qigong understood what Deng Shuanglin meant, and said sternly: "What do you have to say?" Who shut you? After a pause, he said, "Comrade Shuanglin, if you want to wait, just wait, I will talk to Jiaguo and listen to your report!" ”

Deng Shuanglin really did it, and said again and again: "Okay, good, Governor Zhao, I'll ...... I'm just waiting outside! ”

Throwing off Deng Shuanglin, as soon as he entered the door, the young lady Liu Lulu pointed to the study and whispered to Zhao Qigong, your little bureaucrat's son-in-law has been here for a while, go and meet him. Zhao Qigong nodded, walked to the study, pushed open the door of the study and saw at a glance that He Jiaguo was standing in front of a row of bookshelves reading books, looking intently. Zhao Qigong walked over and found that it was a book he often read, "On Power" by the Frenchman Bertrand de Gouvernell.

Zhao Qigong snatched the book away from He Jiaguo's hand, and He Jiaguo raised his head: "Yo, Dad, are you back so soon?" ”

Zhao Qigong sat down in front of the big desk, and also asked He Jiaguo to sit down: "Jiaguo, do you know what I talked to you about?" ”

He Jiaguo didn't know if he was really confused, or pretended to be confused: "Dad, are you talking about my marriage with Ah Hui?" ”

Zhao Qigong waved his hand: "I don't want to talk about your marriage anymore, you are all in your thirties, you are not children, how to deal with it, make up your own mind." I'm going to talk to you about work today, let's talk about it! ”

He Jiaguo smiled: "Dad, since you are talking about work, do I have to call you Governor Zhao?" ”

Zhao Qigong's face pulled: "Don't be hippie and smiley, let me ask you: What's going on today?" Why did you suddenly set off a cannon at the Xiajiang Political and Legal Work Conference? Are you singing on your own, or is someone directing behind the scenes? ”

He Jiaguo also became serious: "Governor Zhao, are you referring to the lawsuit of Hongfeng Mall?" I have investigated and learned about this lawsuit in depth, and the problem is quite serious, and the impact caused is extremely bad. ”

Zhao Qigong stared at He Jiaguo and asked, "Is it you, Mayor He, who wants to take care of it, or does someone want to take care of it?" You tell me clearly: Did Dongfang and Fanxing order you to do this, or did you take the initiative to jump out and do it? ”

He Jiaguo didn't think about it and said, "Who else will instruct this kind of thing?" The lawsuit has turned into a relationship, and the judiciary is corrupt to such an extent that a group of communists can't afford to fight a reasonable lawsuit, can I not jump out? If I don't jump out, don't be an assistant to the mayor! If Secretary Li and Mayor Qian don't support it, don't do it! As if he felt that this was a little stimulating, he added, "Dad, isn't this what you emphasized to me in the past?" As an official, he must make decisions for the people and must keep the interests of the party and the people at heart. ”

Zhao Qigong sighed: "Jiaguo, in principle, you have done nothing wrong. However, political matters are very complicated, and since you have become an assistant to the mayor and have entered politics, you have to look at problems from the perspective of a politician, and you can't mess around with enthusiasm and impulse! Have you ever thought about it: the case of Hongfeng Mall happened when I was the secretary of the Xiajiang Municipal Party Committee, and Zhao Juanjuan is a typical private enterprise set up by me, what impact will you have on me if you make such a fuss? ”

He Jiaguo said with a smile: "Dad, I don't think it will have any bad impact on you, no matter who is a typical tree, there is no privilege beyond the law." Besides, since the reform and opening up, there have been many typical examples of rotten and collapsed! ”

Zhao Qigong said meaningfully: "The question is so simple? My political opponents don't write about me, huh? You've probably heard a lot of that, right? said that my relationship with Zhao Juanjuan was extraordinary, and even said that I took the benefits of Zhao Juanjuan. ”

He Jiaguo admitted: "There are a lot of such discussions, and I have heard them with my own ears in Hongfeng Company. But people are not afraid of crooked shadows, Dad, I understand your personality, I don't believe that you will protect Zhao Juanjuan for the sake of greedy for Zhao Juanjuan's economic benefits. So, when I decided to fire this shot, I had a lot of numbers, and in fact it didn't give you any passivity. ”

Zhao Qigong asked sarcastically: "Jiaguo, why are you so relieved of me?" There are also many high-ranking officials who engage in corruption! ”

He Jiaguo hesitated for a moment, but still said: "Dad, this is at home, there are no outsiders, I'll tell the truth!" Standing up, he pointed to the books on his desk and shelves, "Dad, look at the books you read, Baldazaré Castigliona's Treatise on the Subjects, Hannah Arendt's The Origins of Totalitarianism, oh, and Tsang Guofan's The Classics." I've noticed that many of these books still have your eyebrows on them, and some of them are wonderful. From the perspective of a bystander, would a successful man who reads this kind of book covet a small bargain for a self-employed person? ”

Zhao Qigong didn't expect that He Jiaguo still had this hand, so he couldn't help but be alert, and said with a smile: "I don't think as much as you Dr. He, that is, if you are interested, just take a look!" After finishing speaking, he immediately changed the topic, and said half-truthfully, "I didn't see it in the past, you are quite smart, as soon as you stepped on the head of your old father-in-law to make such a beautiful political appearance, it also made Comrade Dongfang follow the scenery......"

He Jiaguo hurriedly explained: "Dad, you misunderstood this, whether it is me, Secretary Li, or Mayor Qian, we don't mean this, really!" We just want to give justice to the cadres and masses of Hongfeng Company, maintain the stability of the social and political order in Xiajiang, and at the same time, take this incident as a breakthrough to rectify judicial corruption! Secretary Li made it very clear at the meeting that judicial corruption has broken the hearts of the people......"

Zhao Qigong stiffened his face: "I don't object to this, I'm not the secretary of the Xiajiang Municipal Party Committee, and I can't object to it!" However, you fanatic also remembered for me: I tolerate you once, I will not tolerate you a second time, and whatever political limelight you come up with, you can make less of a fuss about me! Don't fall for other people's hands, let people be guns! ”

He Jiaguo wanted to explain something, but Zhao Qigong didn't want to listen to it, saying that there was something else and drove He Jiaguo away.

Not long after He Jiaguo left, Deng Shuanglin, who had been waiting at the door, came, and as soon as he sat down at the door, he said with a sad face: "Governor Zhao, it's really impossible to disturb you so late!" I can't be the president of the court anymore! Secretary Li and Mayor Qian have counted all the accounts of Hongfeng Mall on my head! They made a game today, let He Jiaguo light the fire, and use the topic to play, the spearhead is all pointed at your old leader, I reported to you on the phone in the afternoon! ”

Zhao Qigong was unmoved, and said calmly and naturally: "Comrade Shuanglin, don't say what you said on the phone, Comrade Zhongcheng and Jiaguo have also reported a lot to me, and I generally know the situation." Jiaguo is my son-in-law, and I also know Dongfang and Comrade Fanxing well, I don't believe that they will make any small moves on me! Besides, Comrade Dongfang didn't say anything wrong at the meeting! How can judicial corruption be punished without punishment? Yes? Comrade Shuanglin, you are the president of the court, let me ask you to tell me, have your court comrades eaten the self-employed person in the process of hearing the Hongfeng Mall case? Has anyone ever received money or goods from that self-employed person, I think it's indispensable! Didn't I remind you and Chen Zhongcheng in the past, did you go to your heart? Do you pay attention to it ideologically?! Now that the list is in the hands of the comrades of the country and the East, what else do you have to rely on? Even if I am the secretary of the municipal party committee, I can't spare you! ”

Deng Shuanglin hurriedly said: "Governor Zhao, I assure you: I personally have not taken a penny from Zhao Juanjuan, but I have only met Zhao Juanjuan with you." The trial of the case is completely according to your wishes, Secretary Li is not uncounted, they are turning over this case now, just to make your old leader ugly, do your article......"

The anger in Zhao Qigong's heart burst out, and the table slammed: "Don't say it!" Did I let you get the case done like this? What I have repeatedly stressed is not mediation? Why don't you mediate? You case-handling personnel eat and take, collude with that self-employed person, and make a mess, and it becomes my instructions, you are really going to take advantage of loopholes! ”

Deng Shuanglin said with a white face and aggrieved: "Governor Zhao, Zhao Juanjuan is indeed the one you introduced me to ......."

Zhao Qigong said sonorously: "I don't deny this, I not only introduced you to you, but also asked you to take care of it within the scope of the law." However, you remember: it is the scope of the law, not that you are unprincipled! Moreover, I said this with a special background, after the work conference on the development of the private economy in June of the previous year! At that meeting, the self-employed person was made a model by our city, a representative of a private enterprise, and she took the initiative to find me again, reflecting the difficulties, this lawsuit, I don't ask the president of your court to find anyone? ”

Deng Shuanglin had nothing to say: "But ...... But now, Secretary Li and Mayor Qian have taken me under the knife......"

Zhao Qigong asked: "You really haven't taken the benefits of that self-employed person?" Didn't take any benefit? ”

Deng Shuanglin promised: "Governor Zhao, I want to take a penny from Zhao Juanjuan, and you will expel me from the party!" ”

Zhao Qigong was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Have you ever been to the bed of that self-employed person as the dean?" ”

Deng Shuanglin hesitated: "No, Governor Zhao, do I dare to personally inquire into the case?!" ”

Zhao Qigong was relieved: "Okay, Comrade Shuanglin, as long as you don't put the money in the wrong pocket and don't go to the wrong bed, there is nothing to worry about, you must actively cooperate with the work of Comrades Dongfang and Fanxing, and try to recover some negative influences." Don't go around playing my banner, I've left Xiajiang, and some things are not good to express positively. ”

Deng Shuanglin said tentatively: "Governor Zhao, can you give Secretary Li an explanation at a convenient time?" Give Secretary Li some instructions you gave me at that time? Secretary Li still respects you, if you can say a few words casually, I ...... I'll ...... this level It's going to be over......"

Zhao Qigong didn't wait for Deng Shuanglin to finish speaking, and he became angry: "Just now you said that Comrade Dongfang pointed the finger at me, and now it has become a respect for me again?" Dean Deng, may I ask: Should I believe your previous words, or should I believe your later words? Do you have ulterior motives? First provoked the contradiction between our two secretaries, but if it failed, he pulled me out as a shield? I think you're dazed! Dean Deng, I'm sorry, please go back, I still have a job! ”

Deng Shuanglin seemed to feel that it was seamless, so he had to stand up and leave.

Zhao Qigong said again: "Also, in the future, when doing private affairs, drive less police cars, which will have a bad impact!" ”
