Chapter 57 Section 57

Wang Changgong's arrest did not change the fate of Tang Zhaoyang's dismissal.Tang Zhaoyang still assumed the main leadership responsibility for the "August 13" fire, and sadly left the leadership position of the municipal party committee secretary.Last Friday, Minister Qiu of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee had a formal talk with Tang Zhaoyang on behalf of the Provincial Party Committee, asking Tang Zhaoyang to have a positive understanding of the organization's handling measures and treat them correctly.Tang Zhaoyang could only understand it positively, and dealt with it correctly, and made a sincere review to the provincial party committee again without complaining.However, to Tang Zhaoyang's surprise, his job location finally changed. The Provincial Party Committee did not let him go to the Provincial Institute of Technology to be the nominal deputy secretary of the Party Committee, but reassigned him to the Provincial Department of Civil Affairs as Deputy Director and Deputy Party Member Secretary.Talking about the change of whereabouts, Minister Qiu said earnestly that this was a suggestion put forward by Comrade Pei Jun, and it was also the result of careful consideration by the Provincial Party Committee at the end. He hoped that he could do more practical work on the social security of vulnerable groups.

If I talked last Friday, I survived the long forty-eight hours of Saturday and Sunday.On Monday morning, Minister Qiu and Qin Zhicheng, deputy secretary of the provincial party committee in charge of cadre work, brought Liu Xiaopeng, the newly appointed secretary of the Changshan Municipal Committee of the provincial party committee, to hold a city-wide party and government cadre meeting.After the conference, the routine handover work will begin immediately.Tang Zhaoyang didn't want anyone to feel that he was getting emotional, or that he was about to "flee in embarrassment", so he left Changshan in no hurry, and went to get off work as usual; he was also very serious when handing over, regardless of the winks of the government officials, just like when he was on the job, Go to the canteen of the municipal party committee to eat normally.

The secretary tactfully persuaded Tang Zhaoyang not to go to the office canteen to eat again, saying that he could call him back to eat for him.Tang Zhaoyang didn't understand the secretary's painstaking efforts at first, but he realized after hearing some discussions that he was actually asking for embarrassment: one year and eight months ago, he came to Changshan with great ambitions, and the Changshan cadres took over for more than a month.Now that he was leaving, no one came to see him off, and he still ate in the cafeteria during the last two days of his departure.This shows what?Doesn't it mean that he, the secretary of the municipal party committee, has aroused official anger and has become a loner in Changshan?

Unexpectedly, on the last day of his departure, Chen Hanjie personally found the canteen of the municipal party committee. It was the time when lunch was just started, and there were many people in the canteen of the municipal party committee. Tang Zhaoyang had already prepared a meal and was going to bring it to the small restaurant dedicated to himself and several deputy secretaries.Chen Hanjie strode over, grabbed the stainless steel plate with the food in his hand, put it on the big dining table beside him, and said loudly: "Go, go, Comrade Chaoyang, we won't eat here, I will treat you personally, here you are." The secretary of the municipal party committee who has principles and positions sees him off!"

Chen Hanjie's voice was so loud that it attracted many government officials who were dining around to look at them. Tang Zhaoyang felt a little uneasy, and tried to persuade him, "Hey, hey, old secretary, don't shout so loudly!" Chen Hanjie seemed to have realized something, and stopped shouting, dragged Tang Zhaoyang out and got into his own car, and said emotionally after getting in the car: "Comrade Chaoyang, I've heard about some things, and if you want me to tell you, it's time to stir up the officials." Indignation is nothing serious, it is terrible to arouse public indignation! Justice is at ease! Do you know? There are quite a few units and comrades who want to see you off, including our National People's Congress, Comrade Zijing and their procuratorate, as well as Changshan Mining Comrades of the group!"

Tang Zhaoyang was really moved, and he knew it well: "Old Secretary, I'm afraid you arranged this, huh?" Chen Hanjie waved his hand, but did not answer directly: "Comrade Chaoyang, I ignored this matter. I thought that Lin Yongqiang and the city government would see you off first, and you were going to hand over to the new secretary Liu Xiaopeng, so I didn't rush to arrange it. Today, by accident I heard that you have been eating in the office cafeteria for the past two days, so I felt that the taste was not quite right, so I came here to treat you." Tang Zhaoyang smiled wryly and said, "Old secretary, haven't you counted Lin Yongqiang? How can he care about me now? He's busy, seeing off the old at the back door and welcoming the new at the front door, and he's trying his best to wait for the new secretary's horse. What a fart! After the meeting of party and government cadres, he has been hiding from me. It was not until I lost my temper this morning that he came here and kept saying that he was reporting to me. What I said was not very polite: no What’s the report? It’s me, the screwed-off city party secretary who wants to make a will! Even though I’m screwed, the unemployment assistance for the bankrupt coal mines in the south still needs to be resolved!”

Chen Hanjie shook his head: "What are you talking about at this time? Lin Yongqiang will definitely not listen to you anymore!" Tang Zhaoyang looked sad: "Yes, I can see that he is dealing with me, and I know that he will not carry out my instructions, but I still have to say what should be said! This is responsible to him, and also to 30,000 The unemployed miners are in charge!" With a long sigh, "I see through Lin Yongqiang! People will look at the face of the leader, this time let him bet on it again, knowing that Wang Changgong has a problem, he still dares to play on Wang Changgong Make a bet, you are so bold!"

Chen Hanjie sighed worriedly and said, "I'm worried that Lin Yongqiang might become another Wang Changgong!" Tang Zhaoyang nodded: "So, old secretary, I have an idea, and I'd like to ask for your opinion: I want to report to the provincial party committee on Lin Yongqiang's political quality and remind Secretary Peijun. ?" Chen Hanjie agreed, "I think it's okay!" He hesitated for a while, but also confessed, "To tell you the truth, Chaoyang, when I reported your matter to Comrade Peijun, I had already mentioned this matter first, and suggested that the Provincial Party Committee Lin Yongqiang was taken down from the position of mayor. Comrade Pei Jun was a little surprised, but he still took it very seriously, and asked Lin Yongqiang a lot about it!"

This is unexpected!Tang Zhaoyang immediately asked: "Comrade Pei Jun and the provincial party committee have a clear attitude?" Chen Hanjie continued: "Comrade Pei Jun's attitude is more cautious, and he said two points: First, Lin Yongqiang was indeed suspected of being cunning in handling the 'August 13' extraordinarily large fire case, but he had no economic interests or other special interests with Wang Changgong. It is not a big mistake. Second, Comrade Lin Yongqiang is relatively young after all, and he has not been appointed to the post of mayor of Changshan for a long time, so he needs to take another look and continue to observe for a while .”

Tang Zhaoyang couldn't help feeling sad in his heart, he silently looked at the street scene outside the car window, and didn't want to talk anymore. Chen Hanjie comforted and said: "Chaoyang, don't be too depressed. Comrade Pei Jun and the provincial party committee are not confused by me. I fully affirm that you and the municipal party committee adhere to principles and handle the big 'August 13' case according to law. Comrade Pei Jun Said that the facts of this catastrophic fire proved that every screw of this machine in Changshan was loose. The court trial and our treatment of the cadres in Changshan are not only necessary punishments, but also to tighten the screws of this machine. !"

Hearing these words, Tang Zhaoyang was shocked, and said with emotion: "Comrade Pei Jun's words are profound! If Wang Changgong's approach is followed, the cadres are unprincipled and criminals are shielded, the Changshan machine will continue to run sick! " Chen Hanjie finally persuaded: "So, Chaoyang, you really have to understand positively! I think it is very meaningful for Comrade Pei Jun to personally call you and arrange you to the Provincial Department of Civil Affairs. It is necessary to organize and deal with it, but he still wants to use you!" Tang Zhaoyang thought to himself, this is the way it is, and he can only think so, so he said gloomily, "I hope so!" I thought that Chen Hanjie had a private treat and wanted to take the opportunity of seeing him off to have a final chat with him. Unexpectedly, when I arrived at Chen Hanjie's house at No. 5 Gulin Road, I found that the female prosecutor Ye Zijing was already waiting there with a smile. Only then did Tang Zhaoyang try to cheer himself up, and joked with Ye Zijing, "Ye Jian, why did you come here? Isn't it lonely to let our Deputy Governor Wang stay in the detention center alone? He is still so clueless, what?" Ye Zijing also jokingly said: "Hey, Secretary Tang, you are wrong to criticize this! I still have leaders in my eyes, and I am concerned about the issue of Vice Governor Wang's prison clothes. I made a specific instruction a few days ago. This morning , Vice Governor Wang was very happy to put on the new prison uniform! I checked it myself, and it was pretty good. The red stripes on the prison uniform were very bright, and the buttons were very neat. The governor just doesn't accept my favor!" Tang Zhaoyang was in a much better mood, and he burst out laughing with tears: "Okay, okay, Comrade Zijing! It's worth my stepping down if I can let Vice Governor Wang wear a prison uniform with bright stripes!" After sitting down, he pointed at Ye Zijing and expressed emotion to Chen Hanjie, "Old secretary, you tightened my screw with Ye Zijing's wrench. It wasn't you, the old fitter, and Ye Zijing's good wrench. I That screw might still be loose by now!" Chen Hanjie chuckled, and while pouring Wuliangye into the wine glass in front of Tang Zhaoyang, he said half-truthfully, "Chaoyang, so you are quite self-critical, huh? Admit that you have played some tricks too?" Tang Zhaoyang said with a smile: "There is a process of understanding things. Of course, tricks are also used. It should be said that it is leadership art and work strategy. China is such a national and political situation. We have to face reality!" Chen Hanjie said displeasedly: "What kind of leadership art and work strategy? If our leaders at all levels are wise and safe, and engage in such tricks, I think the party will not be the party, and the country will not be the country! So I thought, there is At that time, we just want to be lonely ministers. For the benefit of the country and the people, we must not be afraid of being isolated or dismissed from office. We must have the courage to bet on the black hat along with our wealth and life! Chaoyang, you have become this lonely minister, I respect you very much A cup!" Tang Zhaoyang drank Chen Hanjie's toasted wine, and spoke again, very sincerely: "Old Secretary, if Comrade Zijing is one of the lonely ministers, I'm not one. I also had selfish intentions at first,' On the night of August 13th, watching the skyrocketing flames of the Big Regal Entertainment City, I thought of today's ending, and wanted to avoid it. But I dare not play tricks on major issues of principle! For example, setting fires qualitatively, such as If you change the chief prosecutor, if you play tricks on this kind of thing, today will not be the same situation, and it will not be Zhou Xiuli and Su Afu who will go to the execution ground, but Cha Tiezhu!" Ye Zijing raised her glass and stood up, impulsively said: "Secretary Tang, just for this, I want to toast you too!" Tang Zhaoyang said emotionally: "Comrade Zijing, I want to respect you, the outstanding chief prosecutor! During the handling of the 'August 13' case, you and the comrades from the Changshan City People's Procuratorate The brave action of being loyal to the people and the law has proved to the world a spirit, a personality, and the power of law and morality!" Chen Hanjie also stood up: "Okay, okay, Comrade Chaoyang said well. Zijing, I also toast to you!" Ye Zijing raised her glass and stood there, a little uneasy, and said with a smile: "Old Secretary, Secretary Tang, did you two leaders deliberately not let me eat this meal? Without the firm support of you two enlightened leaders, today How can Ye Zijing and the Changshan Procuratorate handle such a big case? How can Wang Changgong be involved? Let me respect you. From your two party leaders, my comrades and I have seen the power of ruling the country according to law. Really hope!" Tang Zhaoyang smiled and said, "Okay, then, let's toast to the hope of ruling the country according to the law!" After drinking this glass of wine, Chen Hanjie began to self-criticize while eating the food. He said to Tang Zhaoyang: "Chaoyang, you have criticized yourself and admitted that you have loosened this screw. In fact, this screw of mine is too loose. Sorry, after the 'August 13' fire broke out, I broke out in a cold sweat! Coincidentally, Zijing happened to be at my house at the time, and I rushed to the scene of the fire in Comrade Zijing's car. I immediately thought of Zhou Xiuli, the female director of the Urban Management Committee, and then, naturally, the Comrade Wang Changgong who I worked with!" Ye Zijing picked it up: "Oh, by the way, old secretary, I remember you said something to me at that time: Once this fire is burned, some of our leading comrades will have a hard time! At that time, I wanted to ask: What do you think? Who are the leading comrades mentioned? But I still didn’t dare to ask. Now I want to ask you: Old secretary, did you have any personal prejudice when you said this? Are you really just talking about the facts? This question has been asked for a long time. It's been bugging me for a while." This trouble was also troubled by Tang Zhaoyang and many comrades, so Tang Zhaoyang also looked at Chen Hanjie attentively. Chen Hanjie took a sip of his wine, and said slowly: "How should I say it? It's unrealistic to say that there is no prejudice at all. After all, there were conflicts when Wang Changgong and I formed a team! But basically, it's just a case-by-case basis. First, I have no prejudice against Wang Changgong The special relationship with Zhou Xiuli is clearer in my heart; secondly, I am also clearer about Wang Changgong's bold and reckless style. And, even more coincidentally, I received Fang Qingming's anonymous letter the next day, and I was even more confused." Tang Zhaoyang reasoned with a smile: "So, your old secretary got excited and launched an offensive against Wang Changgong." Chen Hanjie shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Chaoyang, you are wrong! I was not excited at all, and my heart was very heavy, and I couldn't sleep for days and nights! I kept thinking over and over again, what happened to Changshan How did it lead to such a big fire? What kind of historical responsibility should I, the former secretary of the municipal party committee, bear? The more I think about it, the more I can’t forgive myself! Wang Changgong came up from Changshan, and when he was in the team, Many of his faults have been exposed, and some practices are not tolerated by party discipline and state laws. For example, as soon as he took office, he erected a sign in People's Square: "Everything is for the people of Changshan". I told Wang Changgong that there is nothing wrong with serving the people. Wrong, it is not right just for the people of Changshan, it is even more wrong to say that it is for the people of Changshan, but in fact it is only for its own political achievements! Wang Changgong couldn't listen to it, and repeatedly emphasized the separation of the party and the government, opening up and invigorating, saying that his city The Changhe Municipal Government has to do practical things, great things, and one after another. What farmers live in villas, what airports, and even imply at the general meeting that everyone fakes first, and then creates famous brands. It is said that this is also called opening up and invigorating ..." Ye Zijing didn't quite agree with Chen Hanjie's opinion, and interjected tactfully: "Hey, old secretary, don't be so emotional, you should seek truth from facts! Wang Changgong is in urban infrastructure construction, in our resource-based city's positioning and resources. In terms of development and utilization, I have really made a lot of contributions! Moreover, opening up and invigorating itself is not wrong..." Chen Hanjie also admitted: "This is also a fact. This mayor does both good and bad things vigorously!" Sighing, he continued, "The party and the government should be separated, and he is young, so my secretary can treat him as much as possible!" I have opinions on a lot of things I did, so I let him do it. It’s hard to let go, and I can’t take it back. It becomes the mayor who is strong and the secretary who is weak. Later, many things on his government’s side He stopped reporting to me and the municipal party committee! For the sake of the unity of the leadership team, and in order not to give the provincial party committee and the comrades in the team an impression of envy and envy, I can’t say it! This is a loss of position and principle, and a serious crime has been committed. History is wrong! That's why I said, I have loosened this screw too, and it was loose when I was in the team with Wang Changgong, so I took the initiative to report my resignation to the provincial party committee!" Tang Chaoyang knew that the former secretary of the municipal party committee in front of him not only issued a resignation report to take the blame, but also wrote several letters to the provincial party committee to take responsibility, but the provincial party committee was seeking truth from facts and only gave Chen Hanjie a warning within the party.So he said: "Old secretary, I don't think you should blame yourself too much. Wang Changgong can only be responsible for Wang Changgong's problems, and no one can take care of him! Besides, if your old secretary really insisted on the principle at that time, you would have to deal with Wang Changgong. Open confrontation, I don't think there may be good results, maybe two people will step down together hand in hand! This kind of thing has never happened before. When a team has a conflict, the top will each hit 50 boards. Who will give you points? Those are right and wrong!" Chen Hanjie sighed: "Yeah, yeah, I've thought about this result too. Some of our leaders don't know right from wrong, and when we see conflicts, we go around. What can we do?!" Looking at Ye Zijing who was sitting opposite, Said, "However, fortunately, on the issue of the appointment of Comrade Zijing, I persisted and did not listen to Wang Changgong! Wang Changgong whispered to me several times in private, saying that the candidate for the chief prosecutor must be carefully selected. Be sure to choose the right person, and it will be troublesome if you choose the wrong person. Now it seems that Comrade Zijing, I chose the right one, and I used a good prosecutor!" Ye Zijing smiled and said, "For Wang Changgong, your old secretary made a mistake and chose a gravedigger for him!" Only then did Tang Zhaoyang ask about Wang Changgong's case: "Comrade Zijing, do you think Wang Changgong will be sentenced to death?" Ye Zijing thought for a while and said cautiously: "Secretary Tang, it's hard to estimate. How to judge is a matter for the court. Judging from the current situation, the death penalty may not be sentenced, at most it is life imprisonment!" Chen Hanjie was also very concerned about Wang Changgong's ending: "Hey, Zijing, can you tell me: What evidence of Wang Changgong's crimes did your procuratorate implement? How did you hear that Wang Changgong is still defending his innocence?" Ye Zijing replied: "Yes, there is such a thing. Wang Changgong said that he was at fault and not guilty, and he had to defend his innocence. The murder call was difficult to confirm because there was no circumstantial evidence. We are still fighting for it. Now we have conclusive evidence to confirm that The most important thing is the 4.8 million bribes from New World Land Company, and this alone is already a felony!" Tang Zhaoyang said happily: "That's good. If there is a public trial in the future, I will definitely come to attend the trial!" This day's farewell wine, because of its special meaning, because of mixed feelings, and because there are too many emotions for each other, it is rare for the sender who is the former secretary of the municipal party committee and the person who is sent off as the secretary of the municipal party committee to step down to drink too much.Two bottles of Wuliangye actually made Tang Zhaoyang and Chen Hanjie drank one and a half bottles, but Ye Zijing tried to dissuade them in the end, and they might have drunk them all. Before parting, Tang Zhaoyang had tears in his eyes, and took Chen Hanjie's hand upside down to recite ancient poems: "The wind is rustling, the water is cold, and the strong man will never return when he is gone. I, Tang Zhaoyang, in Changshan City, may return in this life. I'm not coming..." Chen Hanjie patted the back of Tang Zhaoyang's hand, expressing emotion over and over again: "Chaoyang, don't talk about it, don't talk about it, don't talk about life and death for the benefit of the country, how can we avoid it because of misfortune and good fortune, we still have to be this lonely minister... ..." The moment he finally boarded the car, Tang Zhaoyang suddenly realized that Ye Zijing, who was standing beside her, was already in tears.
