Chapter 54 Section 54

The decision to punish those responsible for the "August 13" fire was publicly announced. It was announced by Mayor Lin Yongqiang on behalf of the municipal party committee and the municipal government at the city's party and government cadre meeting.Municipal party secretary Tang Zhaoyang presided over the meeting of party and government cadres. The standing members of the municipal party committee at home attended collectively, sitting on the rostrum one by one with no smiles, as if holding a memorial service for someone.The "Changshan Evening News" and TV news on that day made public reports on the meeting, making it well-known to everyone.

Jiang Zhengliu was extremely frustrated. After the meeting of party and government cadres, he didn't go through the handover procedures with the acting director Wu Chengyi as required by the municipal party committee, and went directly to the Municipal People's Hospital for hospitalization.Of course, there are emotional factors in doing so, but the physical condition is indeed not very good. The liver area has been hurting for a long time, and he has not left the post because of his strength.This is not because of how high the ideological level is, but because of wanting to be worthy of the organization.Jiang Zhengliu was aware of the punishment plan that was first reported by the city, but it was just a warning from within the party. He was neither removed from the post of Public Security Bureau Chief, nor demoted in rank. Loved it.Unexpectedly, when Wang Changgong came to Changshan to hold a summary meeting on experience and lessons, everything changed, not only him, but even Tang Chaoyang, the secretary of the municipal party committee, was said to be dismissed.

What Wang Changgong did was obviously revenge, just because he didn't kill Su Afu during the pursuit, Wang Changgong held grudges!It's okay if you don't accept it!If you don't agree with you, go to sue, and order to kill people to silence them?What evidence is there?You are framing it! Jiang Zhengliu had no choice but to accept that even Tang Zhaoyang was not Wang Changgong's opponent, so how could he, the chief of the Public Security Bureau, be his opponent?After thinking about it this way, he figured it out: Now that revenge has become a reality, he has also got rid of a heart problem. From now on, he will not be afraid of Wang Changgong taking him under the knife. It is like a deal, and the money is paid off.Besides, the result of this revenge is not too bad, and he can bear it. If he can't beat others, he can only bear it.

In all fairness, the night Tang Zhaoyang rushed to the hospital to visit Jiang Zhengliu, Jiang Zhengliu's emotions had calmed down, and he didn't want to report on Wang Changgong's order to kill and silence Su Afu.Before Tang Zhaoyang came, Jiang Zhengliu took the initiative to call Wu Chengyi about the handover from the Public Security Bureau, explained the situation, and asked Wu Cheng to forgive him.Wu Chengyi was also very polite, saying that he was not in a hurry and asked Jiang Zhengliu to recover from his illness, and said he would come to visit. As soon as he put down the phone, Tang Zhaoyang came in and asked casually, "What's the matter, Comrade Zhengliu? You can't stand the test like this? As soon as the punishment is announced here, you will be hospitalized? It seems that you are not in a bad mood." Well!"

Jiang Zhengliu smiled wryly and said, "Secretary Tang, how dare I have emotions? My brother-in-law Wang Xiaofeng and a bunch of fellows from the Bell Tower Sub-bureau have been corrupted. My wife took hundreds of thousands of decoration materials from the rich man behind my back. I am responsible for that." what!" Tang Zhaoyang said: "It's good that you know it, don't get emotional anymore, it's not good to be emotional!" Jiang Zhengliu felt aggrieved when Tang Zhaoyang decided that he was being emotional. He opened the drawer on the bedside table and took out a stack of inspection reports: "Secretary Tang, look, my liver cirrhosis is already very serious!"

Tang Zhaoyang seemed a little surprised, flipped through the inspection report, and said, "Oh, did I blame you again?!" Jiang Zhengliu said gloomily: "I can't blame you, you don't understand the situation, so it's natural to think so." He confessed with emotion, "Secretary Tang, to be honest, if it wasn't because I want to be sorry to you, I would have been lying down a long time ago. Done!" Tang Zhaoyang sat down on the sofa in front of the bed: "Excuse me? Comrade Zhengliu, what do you mean?" Jiang Zhengliu said emotionally: "Secretary Tang, my wife took bribes behind my back. After I found out, I reported to you overnight. I still remember your criticism and instructions to me very clearly: you Said that I made the right choice at the critical moment, and asked me to go to the ICAC to return the stolen goods. Later, when considering punishment, you and the municipal party committee were also seeking truth from facts, and decided to give me a warning punishment based on my mistake and attitude of understanding the mistake..."

Tang Zhaoyang waved his hand and said solemnly: "Hey, Comrade Zhengliu, don't get me wrong, it's not wrong to demote you and change jobs now, it's also the decision of the municipal committee, I made the decision, you have to treat it correctly what!" Jiang Zhengliu continued, a little irresistibly: "Secretary Tang, stop doing my job, I know what's going on! Governor Wang will not let me go, and he won't let you go! If you want to say you are wronged, you Worse than me! You didn't listen to Governor Wang's call, and you refused to take down Ye Zijing, and let Ye Zijing and the procuratorate handle the "August 13" case to such an extent that you not only sent Zhou Xiuli to court , and sent to the execution ground, if Governor Wang doesn’t retaliate, you are not Governor Wang! Others don’t know this Governor Wang, but I know him too well! To put it bluntly, this person is not a Communist Party at all, but he fights The banner of the Communist Party has mastered the set of political tricks that trick people!"

Tang Zhaoyang was very sensitive. Hearing these words, his eyes obviously brightened. He looked at Jiang Zhengliu attentively and asked, "Hey, Comrade Zhengliu, why do you comment on Comrade Wang Changgong like this? Is there any factual basis for your assessment?" Jiang Zhengliu stopped talking: The situation of the secretary of the municipal party committee is not much better than him, or even worse than him, so he should save himself some trouble and stop causing a lot of trouble!So, he changed the subject, "Secretary Tang, let's not talk about Governor Wang, let's wait and see, there will always be a day when he collapses! I only talk about myself: I want to wear it too, how old is this official?" Is it called big? Where do you do it differently? I am ready to recuperate from my illness, and I will work hard as the deputy director of the Justice Bureau. I have been the director of the Public Security Bureau for many years, and the deputy director of the Justice Bureau should be handy..."

Tang Zhaoyang interrupted Jiang Zhengliu's words: "Comrade Zhengliu, don't just stop talking! You told me why Comrade Chang Gong didn't want to let me go, but why didn't you want to let me go? Between you What happened? Can you tell me about it? We are all members of the Communist Party, and we should be frank with each other, especially when it comes to major issues of principle, let alone ambiguous words! If Comrade Wang Changgong is really what you said, he is no longer Communists, then we have the responsibility and obligation to figure out the problem in line with the attitude of being responsible to the party!"

Jiang Zhengliu smiled wryly: "Secretary Tang, it's useless if I say it. Wang Changgong is hard to catch!" Tang Zhaoyang said sternly: "We are not trying to catch anyone, but to clarify some issues. For example, did your Public Security Bureau's insistence on setting fires have anything to do with Comrade Wang Changgong? Please answer me!" Jiang Zhengliu thought about it, and felt that it was hard to say: the conclusion of arson was indeed not made under Wang Changgong's behest, but after the conclusion of arson was made, especially after the conflict with the procuratorate, Wang Changgong's attitude was very clear. He also said it very clearly: "It is more beneficial to set the fire. Killing Zha Tiezhu and Zhou Peicheng can give an explanation to the superior and inferior." Then he explained the situation realistically, and explained: "... Secretary Tang You know, the situation after the fire is very complicated, and the nature of the case is clarified step by step during the investigation process, so the dispute between us and the procuratorate on the qualitative issue is really a work dispute, including whether you and Ye Zijing initially thought it was arson ?"

Tang Zhaoyang said thoughtfully: "Comrade Zijing's initial understanding and our understanding at that time are deviations in judgment, without subjective tendencies. Comrade Chang Gong is different. He has tendencies. What he pays attention to is not the facts. , but whether it is beneficial!" He continued, "Comrade Zhengliu, how did you offend this old leader? You and Comrade Zijing quarreled fiercely because you insisted on setting fire to the conclusion. Comrade Chang Gong should be satisfied! In the end, the failure to turn the fire into an arson was the result of Ye Zijing and the procuratorate's insistence, and it was also a matter that I and the municipal party committee have grasped. Comrade Chang Gong will not blame you, right? Are there other problems here?" Jiang Zhengliu still didn't want to say it, so he waved his hands and said, "Secretary Tang, forget it, it's better not to say it, it's useless to say it! I did offend Governor Wang on a major matter, and I offended him so badly that he wished he could shoot me Ah! But this matter is too involved, and there is no circumstantial evidence, people will not admit it! Governor Wang warned me face to face when he came to Changshan, and he did not admit it at all!" Long sighed, "I know I If you are not someone else's opponent, just accept it as bad luck!" Tang Chaoyang was not happy: "Comrade Zhengliu, what do you think is bad luck? What are you afraid of? The secretary of the Zijiang Provincial Committee of the Communist Party of China is not Wang Changgong. As long as it is a fact, you can tell it. There are more than one way to prove the fact!" Jiang Zhengliu had no choice but to hesitate for a long time before telling Wang Changgong what Wang Changgong instructed him to kill Su Afu during the pursuit on that stormy night, and also mentioned the key details: "...Governor Wang... To guard against me, this instruction was given without a secure phone, which I noticed in hindsight." Tang Zhaoyang was very surprised: "There is such a thing?! Isn't this Wang Changgong too courageous?!" Jiang Zhengliu said: "Secretary Tang, Wang Changgong didn't become bold today. He was very courageous when he was the mayor of Changshan! In the winter of 1998, two fugitives from other places came to our Nansi mining area and gang-raped them. The daughter-in-law of a miner's family robbed more than 300 yuan. After the miner got away, he called a group of people and beat the two guys to death. I was in charge of handling the case at the time, and I reported the situation to Mr. Wang As soon as Gong reported, Wang Changgong said, these two fugitives deserved to die! Go and investigate carefully again: see if they were beaten to death by our miners? Could it be that they committed suicide in fear of crime? I think it should be in fear of crime Suicide! Don't bother to find a murderer anymore. Wang Changgong has such a certain tone, what else can we say? Those two fugitives have become suicides in fear of crime..." Tang Chaoyang was furious: "Comrade Jiang Zhengliu, is this how you, the police chief, handle cases? Wang Changgong decided that suicide was suicide? Do you still have a basic concept of the legal system? Do you have any principles, ah?!" Jiang Zhengliu explained: "This matter is also more complicated. First, the person who was killed was a fugitive from another province with a criminal record; second, the miners were also very emotional at the time. They all said that they were acting bravely, and it was difficult to find the person responsible..." Tang Zhaoyang waved his hand: "Stop talking, Comrade Jiang Zhengliu, you, the police chief, should have stepped down long ago!" Jiang Zhengliu felt a little regretful, feeling that he had said too much, looked at Tang Zhaoyang timidly, and shut up. But Tang Zhaoyang didn't stop there. After a moment of silence, he said meaningfully: "It can be seen from this that Comrade Wang Changgong's lawlessness has historical roots! As for you, comrade, you are either complicit or politically confused! Such an important One phone call, murder and silence, you have covered it until now! That night, you came to me and the municipal committee to explain the problem, why didn't you tell this important fact?" Jiang Zhengliu had a bitter face, and said in an embarrassing manner: "Facts are facts, but Secretary Tang, there is no circumstantial evidence! I hesitated that night, and finally did not dare to report to you! Later, I also thought about reporting to Ye Zijing and the Procuratorate , or because of lack of evidence, I didn’t dare to go. It’s not you asking this question today, I... I didn’t want to say it at first!” Tang Zhaoyang stopped criticizing, thought for a while, and asked, "Comrade Zhengliu, according to you, Wang Changgong's phone number in Jiangcheng was given to you by Zhou Xiuli? Is it possible that Zhou Xiuli was with Wang Changgong when he made this call? " Jiang Zhengliu said: "I've thought about this question too. It's possible. But what is the relationship between Zhou Xiuli and Wang Changgong? Will she prove Wang Changgong to death? Besides, Zhou Xiuli has been sentenced to death again. According to the comrades in the detention center, She acted very stubbornly and made the comrades in the procuratorate so angry. I don't think she can bite out Wang Changgong!" Tang Zhaoyang fell silent, pondered for a moment, and instructed: "Comrade Zhengliu, how about this: you write down the situation truthfully, without missing every detail, and hand it over to me immediately after writing. At the same time, you also go to Go to the procuratorate and formally report to Ye Zijing, and ask Comrade Ye Zijing and the procuratorate to re-examine Zhou Xiuli on this important phone call issue, and I will also greet Ye Zijing in the name of the municipal party committee! Remember, this matter must be kept strictly confidential for now!" Jiang Zhengliu still didn't have much confidence: "Secretary Tang, Wang Changgong is a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and the Executive Vice Governor, so take a step back and say that even if Zhou Xiuli confirms that there is this call, Ye Zijing and the Changshan Procuratorate will not be able to deal with her! " Tang Zhaoyang thought for a while and said, "I will go to the provincial capital today and report to Secretary Zhao Peijun, and if necessary, report directly to the leaders of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection! The nature of this matter is too serious, and our party discipline and state laws will absolutely not tolerate it! What will happen if Su Afu is murdered by Wang Changgong? Zhou Xiuli, a gang of corrupt, bribery and abusers, will all slip away! We have committed a crime against the party and the people, and against this country! " Jiang Zhengliu echoed sincerely: "Yes, yes, Secretary Tang, I'm still afraid when I think about it now!" Tang Zhaoyang finally said: "Comrade Zhengliu, your mistake is your mistake, but what should be affirmed is still to be affirmed: at the critical moment, you did not carry out Wang Changgong's ulterior motives, and you talked about it again today. For this, I want to thank you ! At the same time, I also ask you to strengthen your confidence in the party and the legal system, and stop thinking so badly about the reality!" What happened afterwards left Jiang Zhengliu dumbfounded: he thought that Wang Changgong's tree was deeply rooted and would not be easily overthrown by this incident, but he did not expect that after only three days, Wang Changgong would be slapped under scrutiny by the central government.According to news from the provincial capital, on the day when Wang Changgong was announced to be subject to shuanggui, the Provincial Party Committee was holding a Standing Committee meeting to discuss the problem of solving the difficulties of the bankrupt coal mines in the south of Changshan and similar groups in the province.Wang Changgong also proposed an important plan: in the process of Changshan Mining Group's shareholding system transformation, a part of the shares will be allocated to the social security fund, which has been highly valued by Zhao Peijun, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee and the standing committee members present at the meeting.After the Standing Committee ended, Zhao Peijun politely invited Wang Changgong to his office. Wang Changgong thought that Zhao Peijun would continue to discuss with him about holding shares in the social security fund. Unexpectedly, he saw a leader of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection when he entered the door. dumbfounded.On the second day after Wang Changgong was shuanggui, comrades from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection went to Changshan to find Jiang Zhengliu, and investigated and found out about the murderous phone call. Jiang Zhengliu made a statement truthfully. After the comrades from the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection left, Jiang Zhengliu called Tang Chaoyang, told him about the situation, and then asked in confusion, "Secretary Tang, what's going on here? Why did Wang Changgong get this call?" Regulations?" Tang Zhaoyang said quite bluntly: "Comrade Zhengliu, don't inquire about things that should not be inquired about!"
