"Teacher, I was wrong, I was wrong..."
Finally, Xu Jianfeng could no longer hold it together and burst into tears.
Zhao Yiping glanced at him and said, "You should go back to the office, write a sincere letter of repentance. The people from the Disciplinary Committee are already on their way. List all the cris you are suspected of. This is your last chance to atone. Secretary Yao, take your leader back!"
At this mont, Yao Wu
was also trembling all over.
Nevertheless, he helped Xu Jianfeng up and led him out of the conference room.
In the conference room at that ti,
it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Zhao Yiping stood where Xu Jianfeng had just been standing.
He took a deep breath and said, "Several years ago, I had a vision for the Economic Developnt Zone in Guyang City. After extensive research and many inspections, I finally got the approval from the provincial developnt and reform commission. Why did I advocate for the establishnt of this Economic Developnt Zone? My purpose was simple—to enhance the economy of Guyang City and benefit a population of one million. But what have you people done?"
"A Developnt Zone, and you people acted like starving wolves catching the scent of at, throwing yourselves at it recklessly. None of you thought about doing sothing for the people. All you thought about was how to make money from the Economic Developnt Zone. You are said to be the parental officials of Guyang City, but do you even act like it?"
"Forging heroism to climb the ladder, framing colleagues, and so even resorting to kidnapping, rape, and murder. I won't even start on whether you live up to the hats you wear. First, ask yourselves, are you true to your own conscience?"
"Disappointnt, imnse disappointnt. Take a good look at Guyang City, what have you people turned it into? It's a dismal ss, unbearable to behold!"
...
More ear-splitting words ensued.
Almost everyone present lowered their heads.
Around half-past ten in the morning,
The car of the Disciplinary Committee slowly drove into the compound of Guyang City Party Committee.
Almost everyone in the city's Party and governnt offices saw Xu Jianfeng being handcuffed and put into the vehicle.
This scene was unbelievable to many.
Xu Jianfeng, 47, had been in Guyang City for the past three years, during which he had made an impression of being a genuine and kind person, eagerly responding to anyone who greeted him, without any air of bureaucracy.
Everyone knew Xu Jianfeng ca from a humble background and often led by example. Even now, he rode a bicycle to and from work every day, opting not to use a car whenever possible.
Such a person, it turns out, had been collecting both money and won, and the embezzled sum amounted to over ten million.
Beyond maintaining two won in Shengshi Garden,
in his several properties, there were also situations of keeping mistresses discovered, and it was unimaginable that such a greedy and lascivious person was actually the well-regarded Xu Jianfeng.
What was even more unimaginable was that the death of ng Zheqing was also orchestrated by him, which was absolutely shocking.
"Do you feel a sense of victory?"
At the window, Chen Fang stood shoulder to shoulder with Yu Zhengchuan, watching the scene of Xu Jianfeng being put into the car in the courtyard. Yu Zhengchuan asked him.
Chen Fang shook his head and said, "Not the slightest thrill, on the contrary, I feel sowhat sad."
"Why?"
Yu Zhengchuan asked.
Chen Fang sighed deeply and said, "I have always been wondering if this power is the devil. Why do those who once swore to serve the people, one by one, go astray, just like Xu Jianfeng? He was supposed to be a good cadre, but in the end, he was corrupted, which really makes one sigh."
"Have you ever thought that one day you might beco like this?"
Yu Zhengchuan asked.
Chen Fang shook his head and said, "I won't."
"Are you so sure?"
"Of course, I have a belief, a firm belief, aside from the oaths I once took, there's also revenge," he said. "I've made it here step by step so that one day, I can bring Jiang Chuo to my parents' and my godfather's graves to repent."
"I'll bear it with you!"
Yu Zhengchuan reached out his hand to Chen Fang.
With a snap.
Their hands clasped tightly together.
...
The "turmoil" in Guyang City was unprecedented.
The Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee was double-regulated, the mayor was given a disciplinary warning, and ng Zheqing was killed. These three events fernted at the sa ti, causing an earthquake in the official circles of Guyang City.
Five days later.
Xu Jianfeng was announced to be double-expelled.
On the sa day.
Pei Zilai, the acting vice district head of Qingling District, was also double-expelled for bribery.
The reason Xu Jianfeng nominated Pei Zilai to be the head of the Economic Developnt Zone was twofold: first, Pei Zilai was his junior, and second, Pei Zilai had bribed him with six hundred thousand yuan.
To be honest, if Xu Jianfeng had not been so eager to eliminate Hua Ru, their retribution might not have co so quickly.
At that ti, he was too careless.
He always felt he was "unstoppable."
The capture of Jiang Mingqing allowed Chen Fang to obtain all the incriminating evidence about him, which he then passed on to Zhao Yiping.
What's this called?
This is called the indomitable law being thorough.
The reasons were greed and overconfidence.
These two factors ultimately pushed Xu Jianfeng into an abyssal pit.
Because so many incidents occurred consecutively, the leaders of Guyang City and various departnts couldn't think of having a smooth year, apart from cooperating with the investigations of the Disciplinary Committee, they were also required to remain at their posts.
After all, maintaining stability was still the top priority.
Chen Fang also spent the New Year's Eve in his office.
Luckily, with Yu Zhengchuan's company, it wasn't too lonely.
It wasn't until the eighth day of the new year that the standing committee of Wulan City convened a eting and consecutively issued three appointnts, and only then did the real curtain on the repercussions of this unrest begin to rise.
The first appointnt: Xue Bo was relieved from his positions as a mber and standing committee mber of the Guyang City Committee and the mayor, and was appointed as the chairman of the Ruyang County Political Consultative Conference of Tonghai City, which essentially ended his political career advancent prematurely.
Moreover, being directly transferred to another city ant that Xue Bo's chances of turning things around were virtually non-existent.
The second appointnt: Ren Yiweng was relieved from his duties as secretary of the Disciplinary Committee and was appointed acting mayor of Guyang City.
Through a "catastrophe", Ren Yiweng beca the biggest winner.
Firstly, as the establishnt of the Economic Developnt Zone was scheduled, the top two officials needed to include a local, which would better mobilize various resources. Since Ling Li lacked the experience and Lai Chengzong was not suitable due to age, Ren Yiweng, though not the best choice, was promoted.
Secondly, because much had happened in Guyang City recently, appointing the secretary of the Disciplinary Committee as the mayor signaled that Wulan City intended to strengthen disciplinary oversight over Guyang City.
Furthermore, his handling of the Ding Jianmu and Shen Shanghu cases had earned him the title of sacrificing personal relations for the sake of justice.
This leap to the mayor's position, frankly, was just catching the wind at the right ti.
Therefore, for Ren Yiweng, the person he should be most grateful to for his becoming the mayor was actually Chen Fang.
The last decree concerned Chen Fang.
