Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Retreat as Advance

Many people said that that day would be a turning point, at least for Haizhou politics.Some people also said that Zhu Tianyun took advantage of He Fucai to mess with Liu Changfeng at the meeting that day. Liu Changfeng was very upset, even out of breath. Liu Changfeng was not in the office that day, and accompanied his wife Jia Li and Qu Hongsheng to meet someone.Jia Li came back this time and co-authored a project with her cousin Qu Hongsheng: Sino-US joint venture Haizhou Biotechnology Park, which is to plant pomelo trees on the mountain, extract plant essential oils, and then use plant essential oils to lose weight.It is said that this project is currently very popular in the United States, with many participants, and a weight-loss trend has formed in the United States.Through connections, Jia Li has obtained a large piece of land in Haining District. She took down half of a mountain called Fenghuangtai by the lake and used it to grow grapefruit, bergamot, lemongrass, etc., and then extract essential oils. Combined with Lavender from Provence, it makes a great sculpture-enhancing oil.The promotional materials Jia Li sent to all walks of life stated that this essential oil has the functions of promoting blood circulation, lymph flow, strengthening excess fat, water catabolism, helping the body detoxify, smoothing lines, nourishing and tightening loose skin, and effectively enhancing skin firmness It can reproduce the slim figure and shape the perfect body shape with magic effects such as strength and elasticity.Jia Li is very interested in this project, and she started operation as soon as she returned to Haizhou. She is currently the person in charge of the project.Qu Hongsheng wasn't interested in this project, but when Jia Li came back, he just followed behind all day long.The person they want to meet is Boss Qiang, who used to work in the People's Bank of China, but then quit and played around in Haizhou.There is a strange phenomenon in Haizhou, that is, corporate financing and personal loans. People generally do not go to regular banks. Not to mention the cumbersome procedures, it is extremely difficult to ask for help. They directly go to underground banks, also called underground banks, which are opened by Qiang Boss. kind of place.It is simple and pleasant. Although the interest rate is high, it is not much lower when the cost of eating and drinking in a regular bank is reduced, and the scale of financing is limited.Come to Boss Qiang, take as much as you want.Of course, the relationship between Jia Li and Boss Qiang is much more than that. Boss Qiang also makes a living and transfers money for others. You just need to tell him about foreign banks, and he can handle any difficult procedures. It is absolutely safe. , and hidden.

Boss Qiang was the line through which Jia Li, Qu Hongsheng, and Liu Changfeng contacted alone, but Luo Yuxiao didn't know about it.Of course, Liu Changfeng naturally didn't know whether Luo Yuxiao had any connection with Qiang. Liu Changfeng and the others were talking about something when the phone rang. It was the secretary general of the government, telling him to call an emergency meeting.When Liu Changfeng asked what the meeting was, the secretary-general faltered and couldn't explain clearly, but said that the announcement was sudden, and that the four major teams and the Standing Committee all participated.Liu Changfeng thought that the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection was going to hold a briefing, so he left Jia Li and rushed to the venue.When they arrived at the venue, Zhu Tianyun, He Fucai, and Li He, the organization director of the municipal party committee, were already sitting on the rostrum. Zhu Tianyun, the director of the National People's Congress, was also sitting on the side of the rostrum, and the first deputy director was sitting on the side of the rostrum.Not seeing any provincial leaders present, Liu Changfeng asked as he walked to his desk, "What's the matter, I just arrived at the o'clock, and I still have a lot of work to do." No one answered him, Zhu Tianyun frowned coldly, and He Fucai didn't see it. Without looking at him, a member of the standing committee and deputy mayor on the stage wanted to tell him. Seeing the expressions of Zhu and He, he didn't dare to say anything, and turned his head away.As soon as Liu Changfeng took his seat, Zhu Tianyun coughed and signaled Li He to start the meeting.

Li He said: "There is only one thing to convene this meeting temporarily, that is, the four major teams and the Standing Committee members will check on the spot to see who is there and who is not. It seems that there are too many people missing recently. I will call the names first. Those who attend the meeting, please say hello." Qi." The deputy head of the organization department stood up and counted the number of people. In fact, Zhu Tianyun knew without counting that only two of the current six deputy mayors came, four were absent, and only one of the assistant mayors arrived.The National People's Congress lacks two, the CPPCC lacks the most, and there are only two of the eight vice chairmen.There were two members of the Standing Committee missing, the head of the United Front and the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee. The head of the United Front went out and greeted Zhu Tianyun, and the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee said that he had gone down to inspect the work of the police.

After counting the people, the deputy head of the organization department presented the list to Zhu Tianyun. Zhu Tianyun said to Secretary He, right?He Fucai didn't answer, glanced at it and said, show Mayor Liu, it seems that government leaders are missing today. Liu Changfeng said rather dissatisfied: "You read that right, the CPPCC should be the one that lacks the most." The chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference immediately said: "The Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference has done a lot of research recently, and the leaders are all below."

"The meeting should be notified in advance. How can the comrades who made a surprise attack come back?" Liu Changfeng didn't dare to take the blame on Zhu Tianyun, so he could only say this to the head of the organization.These words made Li He extremely uncomfortable. A cadre like him has no fear in his eyes. He may or may not be Zhu Tianyun and Liu Changfeng.When he went to Haizhou to work, at best he played with each other and respected each other. Zhu Tianyun gave him a big blow today, and this time Liu Changfeng hurled words at him in front of so many people, which immediately angered him.After all, he is young and energetic, so he can't hide it, and besides, he has no need to hide it.

"What did you go down there, at least there is an explanation?" "What else can I do, of course it's work." Liu Changfeng also caught up, looking at Zhu Tianyun out of the corner of his eyes, but turned to Li He. "You have to have rules to do your job. Does it mean that the government's leaders don't need to say hello, at least let us know?" Li He said softly and hard, and the two were almost about to quarrel.Zhu Tianyun closed his eyes slightly, pretending not to hear, and waited for Liu Changfeng to answer again before he said to Li He, "Okay, let's start the meeting!"

Li He withdrew his angry stare at Liu Changfeng, he was killing two birds with one stone, one was to frighten Liu Changfeng, don't take it too badly, and the other was to please Zhu Tianyun.He could see the quarrel between the two top leaders in Haizhou very clearly. In the past, he didn't turn to anyone because the direction of the wind was unclear. Now that he heard some insider news from Beijing's top management, he felt that he should stick to Zhu Tianyun's side.He cleared his throat and said: "The purpose of convening this meeting today is to unify the thinking and pace among the four major teams. The work style rectification activities have already been carried out for a stage, and the bottom is moving, but what about the top, especially within our team? Well, I think it is very problematic. Next, I invite Secretary He to give an important speech on this issue."

He deliberately used the word "important". He Fucai was completely let go that day. He Fucai had never been so let go at a meeting since becoming the deputy secretary.She took the microphone, cut straight to the point, and criticized the leader who was not present today.After the approval, he even said to Liu Changfeng: "If a person has a problem, it is a personal problem. If a team has a problem, I'm afraid we have to find the cause elsewhere. Secretary Zhu and Mayor Liu are our leaders, and they are also the two leaders of the municipal party committee and the government. The squad leader of a team, the discipline of the team has been so loose recently, I think the two squad leaders should also take some responsibility? Of course, as a team member, I have no right to ask any leader to be held accountable. The activity is a decision made by the municipal party committee and the municipal government. I am in charge of this work. If there is a problem with the work, I will review it with all comrades. I would like to take this opportunity to reiterate a few points..." So she one, two, three, Four and five, five points in a row, and only one core content of the five points.As for how to deal with it, she didn't say anything, she shifted the responsibility to the squad leaders, and asked the four major teams to come up with opinions, report them to the Organization Department, and then submit them to the Standing Committee for discussion.

When He Fucai was speaking, Zhu Tianyun always maintained a very serious expression.You can't tell whether he affirms He Fucai or hates He Fucai, but you can feel that Zhu Tianyun is completely annoyed today. Zhu Tianyun didn't say much at the meeting. After He Fucai finished speaking, Li He asked for his opinion with his eyes, and he gave Li He a short sentence: "I have said everything that needs to be said, and I will implement it after I go down. The meeting ends!" It doesn't matter if he doesn't speak, the key is that Liu Changfeng was not given any chance to refute or make a statement, which pushed Liu Changfeng into an embarrassing situation.In this kind of meeting in the city, many people don't listen to what you have to say. It doesn't matter. What can be said at this kind of meeting is what is important in private. Even the Standing Committee sometimes goes through the motions.This kind of meeting is to watch the scenery, watch the bustle, watch the weather, and listen to the wind.What people were watching was how Zhu Tianyun and Liu Changfeng fought each other, how they fought each other, and then figured out who would the wind be blowing towards?Obviously, at this meeting, Zhu Tianyun hit Liu Changfeng with a sap, and he wanted to scold his mother, but he couldn't.

After the meeting, Zhu Tianyun's cell phone started ringing.But it's not the kind of reckless barking, it's very tactful and well-behaved.First, there was a beep, and a text message came in, acknowledging some mistakes, and then followed me, asking if Secretary Zhu was busy, and could I do a review on the phone?Zhu Tianyun read all the text messages that came, and clearly remembered who was the first and who followed.What is attitude, this is called!I'm so angry, you don't have an attitude, if you don't have an attitude, I have to have an attitude! After reading it, I didn't reply to any of them, and let them figure it out by themselves.As a result, at five o'clock in the afternoon, Director Li of the Organization Department came in and said that all the leaders who were not on duty have returned, and none of them will be pulled.

"They're all back?" Zhu Tianyun didn't believe it. He had never seen such an immediate effect before. "Yes, there is a vice chairman of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference. He is indeed in the hospital. The doctor insisted on not letting him come, but he insisted." "It's too inhuman, you go right away and take him to the hospital yourself." Just as Minister Li was about to leave, Zhu Tianyun yelled to wait, and affectionately patted Minister Li on the shoulder: "I'll go with you." Zhu Tianyun really sent the vice chairman back to the hospital, and kept complaining: "Why are you in such a hurry, we just want to emphasize that if this continues, everyone will not concentrate, so how can we target you? Yes, I can’t afford to take care of my health.” After speaking, he called the dean himself, exhorted the vice-chairman who was about to resign, and grabbed his hand and shook it hard for a long time. Then he said: "I support you, Secretary Zhu, Haizhou needs a good leader like you. You must help Haizhou create a new trend." "Yes, I will work hard. You can rest assured to recover from your illness. The work in Haizhou is inseparable from you veterans." One sentence from the elder made the vice chairman almost burst into tears. Coming out of the hospital, Minister Li stared at Zhu Tianyun strangely, and sighed in his heart, this person is not simple, he is where to find a good actor!Then he thought, Liu Changfeng is still far from Zhu Tianyun.When did Liu Changfeng regard the CPPCC as a person? Zhu Tianyun was still merciless this time. Except for the two deputy mayors who were absent from the meeting who indeed led the team, the others reported their list to the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department.Although the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee just named and criticized them, the consequences of this move on these people cannot be covered by the word criticism. While regretting these people, they immediately realized a truth, they could no longer rely on Liu Changfeng's side, no matter what, Zhu Tianyun had to change his influence! Regarding He Fucai, Zhu Tianyun did not explain anything further. He believed that once He Fucai pulled the bow away, it would be impossible for her to take it back, because there was no room for her to take it back. The next thing he had to do was to force Zhao Pu to dig that well down. The news came quickly, and Tang Xuemei spoke up.This is the credit of Liu Dazhuang. This Liu Dazhuang can be regarded as a thorough understanding of Tang Xuemei.A woman like Tang Xuemei has always been aloof and arrogant, plus she has such a relationship with Liu Changfeng, she feels that she is the queen in Haizhou, and Haizhou is just her footbath, and Tang Xuemei can put whatever foot she wants It’s not enough to put a foot in, but someone needs to take care of it comfortably.Dare to sprain her Tang Xuemei's foot, hmph, let you go!It's good now, someone dared to risk the displeasure of the world and put her on trial.At the beginning, she was domineering, and whenever anyone wanted to talk to her, she would say, "Let Mayor Liu come." After all, the people handling the case were all Haizhou officials, and whoever dared to challenge her would interrogate her openly and protect her secretly.Later, although Zhao Pu thought of a way to transfer Tang Xuemei to another city, he asked the discipline inspection department of the other city to intervene.But Haizhou is the largest city in Haidong, Liu Changfeng's status in Haidong, and the leaders at the city level don't know which ones don't know, not to mention that there is a stronger force behind Liu Changfeng, just the word Liu Changfeng is enough to make people People show their kindness.Well, now Tang Xuemei has really become a queen. Although it restricts her freedom, she is happy to enjoy the restriction of being held in both hands.As soon as Liu Dazhuang accepted the case, the situation immediately took a turn for the worse. "What are you doing so far away? Invite her back." Liu Dazhang asked two disciplinary inspection cadres whom he personally named to "invite" Tang Xuemei, and then arranged her to a guest house in the eastern suburbs of Haizhou.This place has already been heavily guarded, even if Zhao Pu came in person, he might not be able to enter.This is Liu Dazhuang's ability, a man who dares to forgive. "Haha, Mr. Tang, Miss Tang, let's meet here. How is it? Is the house meal delicious?" The first meeting between Liu Dazhuang and Tang Xuemei started with such opening remarks. Tang Xuemei stared at Liu Dazhuang condescendingly for a while: "Who are you, and who brought me here?" "You don't know me anymore? What's the matter? They didn't abuse you, didn't they torture you to extract a confession? My old Liu, from the construction committee, we have a system, and I once gave you a toast to Boss Tang, forgot?" "I don't have a good memory." Tang Xuemei turned her head away in disgust.How could she not know Liu Dapao, the well-known prickly head of the Construction Committee, a rough man, extremely rough, and disgusting to look at.She was just curious, how could such a vulgar person talk to her? "Haha, let me just say, how can Boss Tang not know me, it seems that the rice is really bad, and after a few days, my memory will go wrong." "You should keep your mouth clean. I, Tang Xuemei, are not guilty of what the hell is going on!" "Not guilty?" Liu Dazhao took two steps forward in a strange manner, "If you say you are not guilty, you are not guilty. It depends on what I say. I am happy. Maybe I will say that your crime is less serious. If I am a cannon If you are not happy, you will be guilty." "Presumptuous, call your person in charge!" Tang Xuemei wanted to get up, but she couldn't move her buttocks. Liu Dazhang found her a chair specially for her. It was a bit like the one that children sit in for a few months. The legs had to be separated. It is open to enter, there is a table in front, you can put things, but there is nothing here.There are two holes, which can be used to bind the two arms like iron hoops.With the limbs arranged like this, you can't move even if you want to, and you can only sit there obediently. "Let go of me, you're abusing me!" Tang Xuemei was furious after never being insulted like this, her eyes were full of anger. "Torturing, okay, my old Liu is good at this. Torturing, haha, I can finally abuse Boss Tang. It's fun, it's fun. What are you doing, give Boss Tang some heat." With a snap, the light above Tang Xuemei's head turned on. It was the time when the temperature in Haizhou was the highest, and two high-wattage light bulbs were placed on it. One can imagine the feeling. Tang Xuemei was hysterical, a little Liu Daxiang dared to do this to her. That's all there is to it, no, Liu Dazhuang has something even worse.Being in the same system, plus Tang Xuemei is a woman, Liu Dazhuang really knows Tang Xuemei's hobbies and dislikes.When it was time to eat, he brought a plate of pork head meat, which was so greasy that it made his stomach feel nauseous. For Tang Xuemei, who was very particular about eating, she was already very resistant without spitting it out.Liu Dazhuang poured a glass of wine with raw onions and garlic, and ate with gusto.Glancing at Tang Xuemei from time to time: "Hungry, I know you are hungry, but I just can't let you eat." "Not hungry!" Tang Xuemei retorted arrogantly. "Fantastic, I'm not hungry, good, good." He took a sip of the wine, beautiful, he was so intoxicated.Next, he babbled and babbled very loudly.Tang Xuemei is already very hungry. I brought it up to now, but there is no water in it. Can I not be hungry? She could persist for one day, maybe two days, but on the third day, Tang Xuemei collapsed.Liu Dazhang is too vicious, and tried various ways to torture her, she just moved her mouth if she didn't move her hands, she said whatever she couldn't hear, and said whatever stimulated her. After all, people's psychological ability is limited. There were too few people in the past, it depends on whether they are serious to you.Tang Xuemei fell into Liu Dazhuang's hands this time.But this woman is also ruthless enough, the first thing she said was: "Do you want to know, I'm afraid it will scare you to death." Liu Dazhuang chuckled and said, "Okay, you'll be free if you scare me to death. Tell me, I'll give you tea." Listen, he is not satisfied with such a low requirement for tea. In what life did Tang Xuemei live before, didn't quenching her thirst with plain water ruined her? "Okay, as long as you dare to remember, I dare to say that my surname is Tang." Tang Xuemei put on a posture to say it.Liu Dazhuang gave a glance, and several people were ready to take notes. Unexpectedly, Tang Xuemei bit Zhu Tianyun as soon as she opened her mouth, saying that she had delivered an antique worth up to five million to Zhu Tian! Liu Dazhuang felt a bang in his heart and almost fell off the chair. That night, Liu Dazhuang went to Zhu Tianyun's house and reported the situation in detail.Zhu Tianyun picked up the phone and called Zhao Pu, asking Zhao Pu to rush to the office immediately, and at the same time inform the Discipline Inspection Commission that all the leaders at home were present. "Let's go, talk to the Commission for Discipline Inspection." Turning to face Liu Dazhuang.Liu Dazang was so frightened that his face paled, and he said in a trembling voice, "Secretary, this..." "What, what, the Commission for Discipline Inspection, how did you investigate!" Half an hour later, when all the staff arrived, Zhu Tianyun said: "We have called everyone here. It is a new breakthrough here. I think it is better to hold a meeting so that everyone will not be in trouble in the future." Then he turned to Liu Dazhuang: "Let's talk, Let everyone know the situation." Liu Dazhang almost lost his temper, can we talk about this, how should we say it?But Zhu Tianyun's eyes are so powerful that he almost eats people.Secretary-General Tang Guoshu also came, and said comfortingly: "It's okay, during the investigation of the case, there are any possibilities, and it's good for everyone to analyze and analyze." Liu Dazhang looked at the crowd suspiciously again, he was the least official among these people, so he naturally had to obey, gritted his teeth, and spoke.When it came to the important points, especially when it came to the price tag of five million antiques, his voice trembled uncontrollably, as if he was forcing out one sound at a time from his throat. The audience fell silent, not only Zhao Pu, almost everyone, including Secretary Tang Guoshu, was also out of breath in fright.Tang Guoshu glared at Liu Dazhuang angrily, and cursed in his heart: "This man is crazy, completely crazy!" "Let's talk about it, let's talk about your opinions." Zhu Tianyun was calm, as if this matter had nothing to do with him. Zhao Pu stammered for a long time and said: "You talk nonsense, you just bite people indiscriminately!" Tang Guoshu also said: "This kind of talk is totally unbelievable, we have to stay awake." After speaking, his eyes stopped on Zhu Tianyun's face. "No!" Zhu Tianyun interrupted Tang Guoshu and said very seriously: "Since the case has entered the investigation process, everything must be handled according to the case-handling procedures. After it goes down, the Commission for Discipline Inspection will increase its strength and add some people to go in. In response to the comments made by Comrade Da Zhuang just now I would like to make a statement here, as long as I am involved, the Disciplinary Committee will immediately report to the Provincial Party Committee, report truthfully, and do not hide a single word. Whoever hides it will be responsible in the future. Do you understand?" Zhao Pu said slowly, "Understood, follow the secretary's instructions." "However, the investigation of the case cannot be affected. Since people have opened their mouths, they must tell all the things they hide in their stomachs. If there are any secrets or privacy, you can say anything. What we want is for people to tell the truth In the end, he emphasized: "Comrade Da Zhuang will continue to be in charge of this case. Please don't feel burdened by Comrade Da Zhuang. Even if I, Zhu Tianyun, are involved, the investigation should continue. This is the principle!" Liu Dazhuang was already sweating profusely, he didn't listen to a word Zhu Tianyun said, it's evil, this world is really evil! The Discipline Inspection Commission quickly reported the situation to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection, and Yu Yang was sweating all over. He took Zhao Pu and reported directly to Secretary Mingsen.Secretary Mingsen pondered for a long time after listening, then slowly let go of his clenched fist, and asked Zhao Pu: "Does Comrade Tianyun know about this?" Zhao Pu nodded and said, "When the investigators reported, Comrade Tianyun was present, and he advocated reporting immediately." "That's right." Zhao Mingsen sighed heavily in his heart, not daring to let the voice out.Persisting for a while, he said: "Well, this matter is complicated. After all, it involves high-level cadres in the province. I think we should be cautious. In my opinion, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection will send people down. Be brave for the comrades in Haizhou, don’t scare the comrades in Haizhou, what do you think if you are older than you?” Yu Yang originally wanted to say that this matter is over, and the decision will be made after consulting the central government, but when Zhao Mingsen said this, Yu Yang couldn't turn a corner, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "Okay, the secretary gave instructions, and we will follow the secretary's opinion. "But I was worried about Zhu Tianyun in my heart.At this level of leadership, no one can guarantee who is okay and who is okay.The common people have a good saying, if any of them is called in, they can check and find out the problem. If it is really necessary to follow the principle, none of them can escape.But prisons are not for people like them. Besides, if you really want to do that, how can you continue your career? I'm afraid you will have to repair prisons endlessly.After thinking about it for a while, Yu Yang came to his senses and pondered Zhao Mingsen's words.Don't think they can talk about anything between them, it's not the same as talking.Some words are said clearly, and everyone is confident, because there is no mystery in these words, and they are right wherever they are said.Some things are not, you have to say them horizontally or backwards. In short, there are many tricks and mysteries everywhere. How you understand it all depends on your kung fu. "In addition, these cases in Haizhou must be linked to Luo Jianxin's case. It cannot be isolated. You are far older than you in this area. You always stop the water and prevent the fire. If this continues, it will cost money and kill lives. , we want to talk about efficiency. Is the Luo Jianxin case too inefficient?" Zhao Mingsen suddenly brought the topic to Luo Jianxin's case again, and Yu Yang had to review it. The masses are in a hurry, and he, the secretary of the Disciplinary Committee, has a very difficult life. After a few more words, Zhao Mingsen called, Yu Yang gave Zhao Pu a wink, and walked out one after the other.Secretary Zhao Mingsen came out from the opposite door and quickly came to Yu Yang: "Is Secretary Yu in a hurry to go back?" Yu Yang turned around, said hello, and waited for the secretary to say the next sentence. The secretary glanced at Zhao Pu and smiled: "Go to the reception room, just a few words." Suspense flashed in Yu Yang's heart. Zhao Mingsen's secretary didn't easily greet other leaders, and always smiled when they met. What happened today?After entering the reception room, the secretary wanted to make tea, but Yu Yang stopped him and said, "Tell me, Secretary, you'd better give me some guidance." "Don't dare, it's just a trivial matter. Yesterday I had dinner with a few secretaries from the government. Secretary, there was some excitement in private." "Should be, everyone is human, you have to understand, is it the big secretary?" "I feel relieved when the secretary thinks this way, but I overheard something yesterday. I wonder if it will help the secretary?" "What's up?" "I heard that Xie Jueping has a villa in Shanghai Moon Lake Villa, which costs tens of millions. Some people have seen her in this villa." "Moon Lake Villa?" Yu Yang's heart tightened suddenly, and his expression changed. Of course he knew about this villa. The most expensive villa area in Shanghai cost hundreds of thousands per square meter.When he first investigated the case of 2,000 mu of land, he had heard that several leaders in the province had houses in this villa, but there was no reliable evidence, so the matter was left alone.At this time, what is the purpose of the secretary to mention this matter?Yu Yang was still thinking, Zhao Mingsen had already called the secretary over there, and the secretary said sorry and walked away quickly.Yu Yang looked at Zhao Pu, bowed his head and left the reception room. After going downstairs and getting into the car, Zhao Pu suddenly stopped and asked Yu Yang, "What did the secretary say just now?" Yu Yang asked back, "What does Secretary Zhao think?" "It shouldn't be what the secretary said." Zhao Pu said without any precautions. "You mean?" Yu Yang was a little excited, feeling that Zhao Pu wanted to be with him. "I didn't say anything." Zhao Pu suddenly changed the subject.After finishing speaking, he realized that Yu Yang was in front of him, a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, and hurriedly argued: "I mean that the news about the secretary should be taken seriously. What do you say about Secretary Yu?" Yu Yang chuckled, feeling that Zhao Pu was a bit funny.Tell Zhao Pu that I'm leaving first, and then get in the car.Zhao Pu froze there, unable to remember for a long time, he was getting worse and worse, so bad that he couldn't even speak. Secretary Zhao Mingsen's words still left something in the hearts of Zhao Pu and Yu Yang.They each went back to the office, thinking desperately.Especially Zhao Pu.Zhao Pu has some problems recently. He received a call not long ago, and it was that call that made him feel difficult about the steps he had taken.He didn't tell anyone about it, and the call was from Beijing.Later, someone came forward to invite him to have dinner with Vice Governor Luo Yuxiao at a hotel in Haizhou.That meal was boring, and it was the most embarrassing and uncomfortable meal he had in his life.But he bit the bullet and finished it.For almost two hours, Luo Yuxiao only said three sentences.One sentence is that Secretary Zhao is doing a great job now.The second sentence is that Haizhou is Haizhou, a place that produces talents.The third sentence is quite interesting. Luo Yu said with a smile: "I should toast Secretary Zhao today. Unfortunately, my stomach and liver are not good recently. I have been poisoned and I am trying to detoxify. Let’s owe it first, and wait for the vitality to recover in the future, and then respect Secretary Zhao.” Zhao Pu couldn’t sit still, got up hurriedly, and smiled at Luo Yu as if to criticize: “Governor, please don’t say that, just say that. I will feel ashamed. The governor is not in good health, you must take care of yourself." After speaking, he stood there with a flushed face.Luo Yu smiled and didn't look at him, she played with the wine glass in her hand, and finally crushed the wine glass with all her strength. Zhao Pu broke out in a sweat that day, feeling that what Luo Yuxiao crushed was not the wine glass, but him. That meal made Zhao Pu feel more heavy, more afraid, and another kind of fantasy.This kind of vacillation in the officialdom is a big taboo, Zhao Pu fights to this position, this reason is still understandable.The problem is that the struggle is sometimes turbulent, and it is really hard to judge the direction.Especially in this stalemate right now, I dare not bet decisively on a certain side.Zhao Pu didn't expect any extravagance from Luo Yu's smile, it was impossible, he could weigh it clearly.Luo Yuxiao never regarded him as one of his own, not even giving him the role of running errands and carrying shoes.There were so many people on that line, it was as crowded as a bus, it was difficult for Zhao Pu to get another foot in.Because of this, he has more fear. It is easy to bring down a person, but it is difficult, too difficult to bring down a force.And the power will counterattack and clean up the place frantically. Zhao Pu has always imagined a way to have the best of both worlds, to win the trust of Zhao Mingsen and Zhu Tianyun, but not to make Luo Yuxiao's side too much of an enemy.No, not enemies, but thugs.The word thug was given to him by the mysterious person in Beijing over the phone.He said: "Brother Zhao, I know it's not easy for you in Haizhou, and I just want to squeeze forward and eat your bowl of rice. Who doesn't think so, they just cut down trees with knives and axes, and cut down trees blocking the way. , you can become a landscape. But have you ever thought about it, if it can’t be cut down completely, or if it can’t be cut down at all?” The other side suddenly stopped talking, leaving a large blank space for Zhao Pu to recall.Zhao Pu took a few breaths of air.Ever since he started investigating Luo Jianxin's case, Zhao Pu has always received this kind of mysterious phone call, and the other party didn't tell him who he was, where he came from, which boat he was on, whether it was the boatman or the puller.But the taste of speaking is very strong.The same is true for this person, but fortunately he called from a landline in Beijing, and he may have intentionally let Zhao Pu know that he is from Beijing.Zhao Pu thought about it for a long time, and felt that he should ask something. The other party suddenly said, "Haidong's surname is not Zhao, nor is he surnamed Zhu. As for the surname, Brother Zhao can guess it himself. Let me tell Brother Zhao that the Secretary of the Disciplinary Committee is not a thug, but a thug for others, it's easy." lighter!It was the first time Zhao Pu was trained like this on the phone. Zhao Pu had to admit that the other party was right.There are some positions in the officialdom, to put it bluntly, they are thugs, but what is used is not force, but power!But what would he do if he wasn't a thug? Could he just move his mouth like Zhu Tianyun and Zhao Mingsen?No, at his current level, he can only use his hands, or a combination of hands and mouth. Contrary to Zhao Pu, Yu Yang didn't hesitate at all.Yu Yang was Yu Yang, and when he came out of the reception room, he knew that the situation had changed.First, Secretary Mingsen has new requirements for Luo Jianxin's case, so he must be dissatisfied with the current job.Second, the big secretary is using someone else's mouth to convey information to him.Send information.Yu Yang patted his thigh bitterly, and his mind was racing. He connected this seemingly insignificant gossip with the several cases he was currently handling, and a line suddenly popped up in his mind.Yu Yang was overjoyed, and while excited about his judgment, he took several deep breaths. If that's the case, Haidong will have a good show to watch. In the afternoon of the same day, Yu Yang urgently summoned members of the anti-corruption department and the major case leading group of the Provincial Public Security Department, and held a meeting for two hours and twenty-two minutes.At the meeting, Yu Yang made strict demands and made careful arrangements. His tone and attitude made the participants break out in cold sweat.After the meeting, Yu Yang hurried to the airport. He had to make a special trip to report to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection that Zhu Tianyun, secretary of the Haizhou Municipal Party Committee, was suspected of accepting bribes.As soon as the car drove out of Haizhou and got on the highway leading to the airport, the phone rang, and Yu Yang picked it up. It was the secretary Zhao Mingsen.Zhao Mingsen asked where Yu Yang was, and Yu Yang answered truthfully.Zhao Mingsen laughed and said, "It's really vigorous and resolute, not bad." Yu Yang was about to say a few words of politeness, when Zhao Mingsen suddenly said, "Turn around right now, you can't go anywhere now, just stick to your post honestly." Yu Yang failed to go, but Zhao Mingsen went to Beijing two days later.The public statement is that it asks for money to find a few major departments to report on the problems and bottlenecks encountered in Haidong's economic development.Did the secretary of the provincial party committee personally go to the ministry to ask for money? No.It was only then that Yu Yang realized that it was not his turn to report to the higher-ups. Zhu Tianyun's involvement in the case has aroused high-level attention. Not long ago, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection sent an investigation team to fully assist Haidong in investigating the matter.The news spread like wildfire, and Haidong, including Haizhou, immediately fell into a new vortex. Zhao Mingsen's face was green. He came back one day earlier. His expression and voice made others feel that he was very heavy, as if he had hit a wall in Beijing.This news made many people feel uneasy, including Yu Yang.But it also made some people gloat.Yu Yang heard that the night Zhao Mingsen came back, Luo Yu laughed and drank too much. Recently, a consortium from Singapore came to Haidong.Haidong is the first to allow foreign consortiums to participate in the construction of high-speed rail. Guo Zhongxu and Luo Yuxiao have been highly praised by the Ministry of Railways for their pioneering work. After the investigation team arrived in Haidong, Zhao Mingsen did not come to meet him. He only asked Secretary-General Tanaka Shinobu to inform the Commission for Discipline Inspection and asked the Commission for Discipline Inspection to fully cooperate. What resources need to be mobilized should be brought up at the meeting for everyone to study.Yu Yang didn't know what to do, and secretly wondered if Zhao Mingsen had really hit a wall in Beijing, or someone went to Beijing before him?Immediately afterwards, he began to worry about Zhu Tianyun. Could it be that Zhu Tianyun is really going to have a problem? Just when he was hesitating whether to communicate with Zhu Tianyun in secret, a call came, and he was strictly asked to cooperate with the investigation team of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection unconditionally, to find out the facts of Zhu Tianyun's involvement in the case as soon as possible, without leaving any doubts.The caller was the deputy secretary of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection who was in charge of the Haidong area. Yu Yang said yes to the phone seriously and insisted on following the chief's request.After answering the call, Yu Yang found that his hands were cold, and his heart also went to the cold place.After a while, the office was knocked open, and the secretary walked in with three comrades from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.The expressions on the faces of the three comrades were all the same. They came down this time and adhered to the three no principles: not allowing Haidong to receive them, not contacting any leaders of Haidong in private, and not even allowing Haidong to send a car.All investigation and handling work shall be chartered by oneself. The three comrades communicated briefly with him, and the comrade surnamed Lin who led the team said: "Secretary Yu, shall we start working?" Yu Yang looked at Team Leader Lin's face, pondered for a while, and nodded. : "Well, since the superior has a clear request, I will not insist on it, I will listen to the superior." Afterwards, the three comrades went to Haizhou with a few comrades temporarily transferred by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection to cooperate with the work.Contrary to everyone's expectations, Yu Yang actually transferred Xiao Qinghe to help the investigation team handle the case, and let him also serve as the leader of Haidong's liaison team.The other list also made people ponder. Yu Yang also recruited Ye Mei from the Anti-Corruption Bureau, but Ye Mei refused to go, claiming that she had something to do with Zhu Tianyun and should avoid it.Yu Yang pretended to be ignorant and asked, "What's your relationship with him?" Ye Mei stammered, "My husband works as a secretary next to Secretary Zhu. Isn't this relationship important?" Yu Yang asked coldly, "Which rule in the law It is stipulated that the wife of the leading secretary cannot participate in the handling of the case?" The question made Ye Mei speechless.默了半天，叶眉又说：“于书记，您还是换个人吧，我真是胜任不了这份工作。” “如果真胜任不了，你可以写辞职报告回家！”于洋丢下这句，再也不理叶眉，忙自己的事去了。叶眉心里万分紧张，偷偷溜到卫生间，给孙晓伟打电话：“怎么办呀老公，这事我能做么，我快疯了。”孙晓伟那边说：“这事太突然了，老婆你镇定点，首长这样安排肯定有首长的道理，咱办事的，只管闷头干工作就行。”叶眉又问：“我怎么觉得他们齐了心要往朱书记身上栽赃啊。”孙晓伟这次没同情妻子，厉声道：“你是高检干部，说话做事一定要有原则啊，挂了电话吧，不能多说，记住，现在是考验你我的时候，一定要谨慎啊。”叶眉还想纠缠着说些什么，电话那边传来嘈杂声，好像什么人在问孙晓伟什么事，叶眉赶忙将电话挂断。她在卫生间足足闷了半小时，才打起精神走了出来。 朱天运是在天华园见到中纪委调查组的，当时他正在批阅一份文件，是副书记何复彩呈他手上的，里面涉及到海东高层几位干部不少事。他看得非常认真，看完，在文件上批注了自己的意见，刚放下笔，秘书孙晓伟带着林组长他们进来了，陪同林组长的，果然是省纪委的肖庆和处长。 朱天运坐着没动，目光在几位脸上扫了扫，然后回落到秘书孙晓伟脸上，意思是问：“怎么回事，他们是谁？” 孙晓伟结结巴巴说：“朱书记，肖处长带来几位领导，要求见您。” 朱天运将目光转向肖庆和，肖庆和正要开口，林组长抢先一步说：“我是中纪委的林安平，这两位是我同事，有件事需要找朱书记了解，请朱书记配合。” 朱天运这才起身，慢吞吞道：“是这样啊，我还以为是找我投资的，三位请坐。” 孙晓伟忙张罗着请林组长他们坐，林组长却说：“朱书记，我们能不能换个地方？” 朱天运愕了一下：“换哪？” “我们有地方，请朱书记……” “不是双规吧，如果双规，请按组织程序来。”朱天运收起脸上的客气，郑重给了一句。 “不是，只是不能在您这里谈。” “是吗？”朱天运这次把目光对准了肖庆和。肖庆和略显僵硬地说：“麻烦朱书记还是配合一下吧，我们也是在配合上级工作。” “怎么配合，毫无理由地跟你们走就算配合？” “不是毫无理由，有件案子涉及到朱书记，所以请朱书记配合查清楚。”林组长见朱天运有意为难肖庆和，接话道。 “早说嘛，我哪知道你们是查案还是带人，查案可以，带人怕没这么方便，最起码也得省委通知我是不是？” 一句话讲得，几个人都红了脸，可能他们太想把事情弄得正规，反而看上去跟带走犯人似的一点不正规。 问话直接就涉及到了那件古玩。这点上中纪委的人查案跟省里或市里还是有很大不同，没绕任何弯子，直接就问朱天运认识不认识唐雪梅？朱天运刚说了句认识，林组长马上问：“据唐雪梅反映，她曾经向你送过一件古董，你还记得不？” 朱天运听出林组长称呼上的变化，将之前的“您”换成了“你”，想了一会道：“你说什么我不明白，她凭什么送古董给我？” 林组长用直截了当的办案语气说：“请回答有还是没有？” "No." “请你再想想，不要急着回答。” “对不起，我不喜欢玩这种迷藏，如果你们觉得我违纪违法，可以直接找上级汇报，我朱天运愿意承担一切责任。” “请回答我的问题，是不是收过唐雪梅礼物？”林组长忽然板起脸说。 朱天运怔怔地盯着林组长看半天，一屁股坐凳子上：“我回答不了。” 气氛随之僵下来，林组长这边也不敢太用力，朱天运呢，摆出一副无所谓的样子。这样僵了三天，赵铭森坐不住了。朱天运目前虽说没采取任何措施，但他是全力配合调查，也就是说，从被调查组带走那一刻，他就不工作了。这样僵持下去，海州工作会受影响。已经有不少传言说朱天运被“双规”被高层问责了。迫不得已，赵铭森在电话里向高层请示，看能不能让朱天运边工作边接受调查？高层断然否定，坚决不行，在相关问题查实查证之前，任何人不得为朱天运说情。赵铭森叫苦不迭，他哪是说情啊，他是怕这件事把他刚刚扭转的被动局面影响掉。 一提局面，赵铭森的心立刻重了。想想自己到海东上任后走过的艰难之路，想想在海东受到的排挤、架空、憋屈以及仍然潜伏在他身边的种种危险，恨不能借一只大手，瞬间将这些乌云一一扫散。这次去北京，他无意中听说，有人正在暗中运作，想让他尽快离开海东，回到他原来工作的省份去。他在北京的一位老领导甚至直言不讳地警告他，如果朱天运这次出什么问题，他在海东的所有努力将会付之东流。不但朱天运会成为靶子，他赵铭森也会。 “你要看清左右啊，有人虎视眈眈盯着你呢，恨不得明天一早就坐到你位子上去。”那位老领导心事重重道。赵铭森何尝不知，又怎能看不清。最近省府那边异常活跃，郭仲旭和罗玉笑大打高铁牌，将众人的热情还有目光全部吸引到他们身上，似乎他们才是全心全意为海东发展服务，为海东经济的增长和社会的繁荣呕心沥血。郭和罗频频出现在各种工程项目的剪彩仪式上，面对镜头，不停地讲要以经济发展为重。他们用“发展”这张牌来对抗或冲淡他的“反腐”牌，中间用意，太是清楚不过。罗玉笑甚至在会上公开讲，说目前海东有股不良风气，大家的注意力不是集中在如何搞好建设如何一心一意谋发展上，而是集中在斗争上，有人天天盼着别人出事，这不好，很不好。出事的同志令人痛心，但是盼着别人出事或等着别人出事的同志呢？罗玉笑给了这样的回答，我看这些人简直就是居心不良！ 他是居心不良么？赵铭森冲自己打了个深深的问号。不，绝不是，他很快否定掉这一说法，思路原又回到眼下的复杂情势上。说来也是奇怪，之前赵铭森从没怀疑过朱天运，但这阵，他忽然在朱天运三个字后面打了个问号。 朱天运却一点不焦急，甚至连最基本的反应也没。他现在就住在林组长他们住的宾馆里，跟林组长是隔壁。肖庆和还有北京来的两位同志轮留陪着他。屋子里设施简单，没有电视，没有网络，电话也拆除了。调查组只给他一张报纸，还是很久以前的，再就是纸和笔，让他想起什么就写点什么。虽然有自由，但跟隔离审查已经没有两样了。他住进来的第三天，妻子萧亚宁赶来了，在外面跟调查组的人争争吵吵，朱天运听得见妻子吵架的声音，萧亚宁很厉害，大声质问自己的丈夫犯了什么罪，凭什么对他这样？林组长先是很有耐心地跟萧亚宁周旋，后来见萧亚宁不讲理，吵着要见自己的丈夫，还说要找省委找中央反映情况，迫不得已才叫来省委组织部的人，让他们协助做工作，将萧亚宁带回去。此后，就再也听不到外面有什么声音，那个叫叶眉的倒是天天给他送饭，送了饭默默站着陪他一会儿，不敢说话，目光也不敢往他脸上望。朱天运也不跟叶眉说话，简单地扫她一眼，端起饭就吃。吃过，就坐椅子上，盯住窗外看。 窗外风景真好啊，马路宽阔笔直，立交桥一座接着一座，高楼大厦鳞次栉比，绿花带一块连着一块……这是多少年来，朱天运头次发现自己竟生活在这样一座美丽的城市。由不得地就叹出一口气，我这个书记当得真官僚真没劲，居然对自己管辖的城市如此陌生！叹完，忽然生出一个想法，这次出去，第一件事就是带上老婆，好好转转这座城市，好好享受一下海州风光。 脑子里很快就又让萧亚宁占满了。萧亚宁回来后，一直请病假，并没去公司上班。公司倒是派人请过她几次，董事长谭国良还拿着萧亚宁新的任命文件找上门来，说公司一日不能没有萧副董，要萧副董尽快回到公司，一大堆人一大堆事等着她召唤呢。朱天运也劝妻子，家里怎么都行，工作上千万不能任性，不能意气用事更不能耍大牌。没想耍大牌三个字刚出口，萧亚宁就怒了，气急败坏冲他叫嚣：“我耍大牌，我萧亚宁有资格么，我不过是一只狗，被人吆喝来吆喝去！” 市委书记的老婆说自己是一条狗，这话不得不引起朱天运警觉。趁着这功夫，他又把老婆想了一遍，想着想着，竟生出很深的内疚来。他知道妻子有气，为了他，妻子把自己的理想还有目标都放弃了。生硬地回到国内，一时找不准位置。 我不能毁了她！朱天运最后这么警告自己。 而这个时候，柳长锋等人正在摆酒宴庆贺。 柳长锋真是太开心了，朱天运想扳倒他，结果搬起石头砸了自己的脚。中纪委调查组一来，苏小运马上给他打电话，电话里的苏小运简直兴奋得要死，他说：“柳老板啊，这下看到了吧，有人愚蠢啊，自以为是。以为海州真是他的，这下完蛋了吧？”当时柳长锋还傻呵呵地问了一句：“没那么简单吧，会完蛋？” 苏小运马上说：“啥叫简单，啥叫不简单，有人想让复杂，再简单的事也能复杂起来，柳老板难道不懂这个理？” 柳长锋马上就来了劲，迎着苏小运说：“明白明白，大秘书就是高，高啊。” 接着，柳长锋又听到一连串好消息，先是说唐雪梅这边又有了新供词，先前只是说送了朱天运一件宝贝，现在又说还通过一层关系送过朱天运两百万，是为了拿下两千亩土地。接着，省住建厅计财处长邵新梅供出，在震动全省的盛世欧景楼盘这顶工程中，送过朱天运一百六十万人民币，二十万美金！ 形势急转直下，似乎朱天运要面对的，不只是一个唐雪梅，还有烂尾楼盛世欧景，这可是个无底洞啊，谁掉进去谁就别想轻易爬出来。 好，真好。 一人踩一脚不要紧，如果大家都跳出来踩一脚，这人的处境就很微妙了。 柳长锋笑得身上都要开红花了，他真是感激死唐雪梅和邵新梅，这两朵梅花太可爱了，红唇轻轻一启，就给朱天运吐出两口深井来。 阎三平要请柳长锋吃饭，说怎么着也得庆贺一下，柳长锋叫上秘书安意林，大大方方去了。到了地方，才发现阎三平请了一屋子人，足够两桌。唐雪丽和她男人孟怀安也在。柳长锋眉头一皱，感觉有点不舒服，但没发作，因为他看到，在座的似乎官职都没他大，就想阎三平请这些人来，还是陪他，为了他开心。于是眉头展开，痛快地走进去，很快便被恭维声包围。 打了一通招呼，柳长锋目光才跟唐雪丽碰上。唐雪丽满脸跳跃着兴奋，一双眼睛简直能燃起火来，火苗直往柳长锋脸上扑，根本不管身后还站着自己男人。那对大奶子更是跟着兴奋，几乎要提前奔出来了。柳长锋厌恶地扭过脸，这女人咋这么恶心啊，简直白痴得要死，她肯定是以为朱天运这下完蛋了，才这么飘飘然。不由地，就又想起还关在里面的唐雪梅。唐雪梅绝不会像她这么弱智，一娘生的，差别大得没法提。目光扭过后，突然注意到一张陌生脸，漂亮得惊人，但又明显把漂亮藏在什么东西之后，不肯露出来。盯着看了一会，柳长锋才明白过来，这女人不是藏，天生如此。Flour noodles contain spring power without revealing, and red lips are heard before they smile.柳长锋忽然就想起这句诗来，感觉自己还是有点文化。 “这位是？”他把目光对准一直媚笑地跟在他屁股后面的阎三平。 “茹娟茹老板，大美人。”阎三平得意地介绍着，他从柳长锋目光里看到了东西，特自豪，感觉这道菜今天真是带对了，之前还犹豫，要不要把茹娟这女人带来。 “茹老板？”柳长锋居高临下重复一句，目光并没马上从茹娟身上挪开。柳长锋最恨自己这毛病，他老婆更恨，可就是没办法，见了漂亮女人腿就是迈不开，第一时间就能想到床上去。不过这阵他想的是，这女人不是海天总经理么，尽管没见过，但他知道。海天跟大洋不是冤家对头死咬在一起么，怎么？ 阎三平及时捕捉到柳长锋的困惑，满脸堆笑道：“茹老板跟我是不打不相识，现在我们已是合作伙伴了，她一直想见市长您，可惜就是没机会，今天三平斗胆把她带来了，省长千万别生气。” “我生什么气？茹老板能来海州投资，就是我的客人，今天茹老板跟我坐一起，我要好好招待茹老板。三平你做了件好事，好，真好。”说着，就牵住茹娟手，往贵宾位去了。 茹娟脸色暗暗一动，似乎有点厌恶，但很快脸上就绽出笑。“谢谢市长啊，今天市长可给了我大面子。” 一旁的唐雪丽脸上起了猪血，恨恨地耸了下肩，往另一张桌子去了。她丈夫孟怀安看到了她表情，摇摇头，有点无奈地跟了过去。 官场上男人的另一个委屈，就是自家老婆总要给权位高的男人明送秋波，还不是暗送，因为权位高的男人不喜欢女人暗送，他们喜欢女人张开膀子扑上来。送了你还不能公开吃醋。都说官场男人在外养情人养小蜜包小三，其实多的时候，他们是找平衡。 乱糟糟一通寒喧后，各自坐定，这边柳长锋是中心，那边次一点，建委主任孟怀安成了中心，唐雪丽脸上表情又兴奋起来，她的感觉来得就是快。 凉菜很快布齐，大家轮番敬酒，柳长锋这天开心，比来时还要开心，关键就是多了一个茹娟。一开心就想贪杯，一边喝着酒一边说：“美人相伴，这酒喝起来味道就是不一样啊，大家别只敬我，多敬美女几杯嘛。” 于是众人又都围着茹娟敬。茹娟这天表现得真是异常，几乎来者不拒。她自然清楚柳长锋的用意，男人都是用这招，想借这方式让女人在酒和恭维中失去理智，然后乖乖听他摆布。茹娟今天并不是来认识柳长锋的，如果真想搭柳长锋这座桥，太容易了，还用得着她下贱？她就是来看看热闹，看看朱天运被审查后别人有多兴奋，为此她私下跟阎三平的大洋言和，按阎三平说的，两家弄了个框架性协议，真成战略伙伴了。这事她没让朱天运知道，也没让公司总部知道。茹娟喜欢按自己的感觉玩牌，哪种玩法过瘾她就按哪种玩，从不去想后果。其实有啥后果啊，对商人而言，后果无外乎就是钱，赔和赚。茹娟最近对钱没兴趣，真没，她忽然对男人有了兴趣，她想玩玩男人。 没人知道茹娟酒量有多大，他们都以为三下五除二就能把这女人搞定。柳长锋也这么想。见大家围着茹娟敬酒，柳长锋笑眯眯的，坏意已显显地挂在了脸上，心里已在蠢蠢欲动，甚至已经盘算着要带她到哪儿过夜。茹娟一边豪放地跟各位碰酒，一边用眼角余光扫着柳长锋，心里道，哥们，你打错主意了。 茹娟做过陪酒女郎，那年她十九岁，上大一。不是生活所迫，也不是别的原因，就是想做。同学们都以为她是拜金女，或者堕落女。呸，他们哪里懂她。她就是想做。她喜欢夜总会的气氛，喜欢陪一大帮半老不老的臭男人挥金如土，喜欢在纸醉金迷中考验自己。她就这么一个人，没办法。今天，茹娟又有了那种感觉，甚至比当时那种感觉还贱。十几杯下肚后，她脸上全是酒了，目光乱得一塌糊涂，身子软瘫似地要歪倒在柳长锋怀里，吐字不清地说：“柳市长您……您还没跟我敬呢，来，敬我一杯。”柳长锋赶忙扶了她一把，手指暗暗用劲，试探了一下她的皮肤，半是正经半是玩笑地说：“茹老板如此不胜酒力啊，不能再喝了，我看你已经醉了。”茹娟忽然动了下身子，差点仰面倒地，柳长锋伸手拽她时，她又直挺挺地坐稳了，不过还是酒话：“我没喝醉，我哪醉，酒逢知己千杯少，人生难得须尽欢。我要喝，喝……” “喝！”柳长锋啪地拿起酒杯，几乎是灌进了茹娟嘴里。 所有人都吓了一跳，场面忽地僵住，阎三平更是吓得面色如土。就在大家愣神的空，安意林匆匆从另桌上走过来，对柳长锋低语：“老板，外面有位神秘人，非要见你。” “不见！”柳长锋没看安意林，目光仍就搁茹娟身上。茹娟抓起酒杯，冲大伙说：“都愣着干什么，不是要喝酒嘛，来呀，喝呀。” 柳长锋所有的想法一扫而尽，后悔让这样的女人坐到了身边。堂堂市长，怎么能对这样的女人动心思呢，简直！ 就在他想发怒的空，安意林又冲他说：“老板，你还是出去见见吧，我怕……” “怕什么，让他进来！” 阎三平赶忙起身，拉过安意林，两人到外边嘀咕去了。不大工夫，阎三平回来，冲柳长锋说了几句。柳长锋这次没发火，起身离开了包间。 茹娟暗暗一笑，直起身子，整理了下头发，趁大家发呆的空，拿起坤包溜了。临走她在心里给了他们一句话：一伙傻逼，标准二百五。 柳长锋断然没想到，谢觉萍会在这个时候找他，而且找到这种地方。阎三平说出谢觉萍三个字时，柳长锋接连打出几个冷战。后来他骂了一句类似于扫帚星的脏话，起身离座。他必须按谢觉萍的要求出去，这女人做事就这样，不容许对方讨价还价，哪怕你是郭仲旭。下楼时他轰开了阎三平和安意林，目光无意间又朝楼道深处看了眼。一个影子让他有片刻的恍惚，后来他确定自己看花了眼，怎么会是茹娟呢，她不是喝醉了么？ 出了酒店大厅，柳长锋左右看了看，没找到要找的人，正欲打电话，门僮突然走过来，问他是不是柳老板？柳长锋恶恶说了句是，门僮道：“有人在停车场那边等先生，请先生从这边过去。” 停车场就在酒店右侧，但被酒店遮挡着。柳长锋迈着情急的步子走过去，举目远眺，暗淡迷离的灯光下，一袭黑影孤独地立在远处。那影子有点缥缈，有点朦胧，好像不忍碎去的一个梦，幽灵般挣扎在他心的最疼处。柳长锋停下步子，他必须停下，必须思考那么一会儿。这影子曾经多么熟悉啊，他闭上眼，往事便大面积地涌来，哗哗地，如同潮水，听得见响声，瞬间要把他淹没。他甚至已经闻到她的呼吸，嗅到她身上奇特的香味。是的，谢觉萍身上总是有股暗香，很奇怪，不是香水，也不是衣服留下的，柳长锋曾像探宝一样探寻过，后来相信了谢觉萍的话，生下就那样。
