The matter became more and more serious, and people were sent from higher authorities to conduct a thorough investigation. Liu Jianguo and Liu Dongsheng were both suspended from their posts.
"Dad, you should ask that man to think of a solution." Liu Dongsheng was not afraid at first, because he had someone protecting him and his father had a good relationship with him over the years, so it would not be that easy to do so.
But now the higher-ups have actually sent an investigation team directly, and there is no room for easing the situation once the investigation continues.
"I can't think of a solution. We fell into someone's trap. Most importantly, there's a traitor in our family. Xie Zheng reported me."
The only thing Liu Jianguo did was to get his daughter and granddaughter out of prison and send them abroad in the past two days.
As for his son, he was reported and investigated, so he couldn't get away. He had to step down first and then find an opportunity to get back on his feet.
As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood. As long as that person is still in power, he will be able to take power somewhere else within three years.
"Dad, are we just going to give up like this? Who is behind this? That ungrateful Xie Zheng! We treated him so well, yet he still betrayed us!
I told you from the beginning that this guy wasn't a good match, but my sister fell for him, and it's ruined our whole family."
"Why rush? You can be out in three years. Thirty years ago, I hid for eight years and still managed to get to my current position.
Dongsheng, just remember, no matter how you are asked, don't implicate that person. With him around, we can get back on our feet.
If we expose him, it will be the end of us all, understand?"
Liu Dongsheng was actually not reconciled at all. How could his family be so defeated? Suddenly and inexplicably!
Just because Xie Dan had a quarrel with someone, his sister Liu Qing helped Xie Dan vent his anger, and then the situation turned out like this.
"Dad, who did we lose to? Xie Zheng? What good does he get from doing this?"
"Secretary Liu, what a coincidence to meet you here. You're here for investigation as well. Oh, they've sent an investigation team here, and it's making me so nervous."
Yu Yang walked over happily to greet Liu Jianguo. Liu Jianguo was detained in this investigation team and could not go home.
Yu Yang's words were purely infuriating.
Liu Dongsheng snorted coldly: "Deputy Mayor Yu doesn't seem to be worried at all."
"I haven't done anything bad, so I'm not too worried. But Secretary Liu is in trouble. I heard that your son-in-law has reported many things about you.
It will probably take the investigation team ten days to half a month to check each case one by one. Secretary Liu is being held here. If you need anything, please tell me and I will get it for you.
Take advantage of it now while you can still use it. If you go to jail in the future, I won’t be able to help you even if I want to.”
Yu Yang had a smug look on his face, which made Liu Jianguo blush: "What are you so proud of? You're just a flatterer. You used to act like a lapdog in front of me."
"So what if I was a lapdog before? That was in the past. Now, Secretary Liu is the stray dog.
My nephew Dongsheng, you are so pitiful. The prince of Jiang City is about to become a prisoner. The most pitiful thing is that you don’t even know who has harmed you.
Just ask me and I’ll tell you.”
Yu Yang put his hands behind his back, looking very smug.
He was happy, how could he not be happy? Now that Liu Jianguo had fallen, his chance had come.
I thought that Liu Jianguo, the local tyrant, could not be moved, but I didn't expect him to fall so quickly.
"Who is it!" Liu Dongsheng stood up and asked fiercely. He wanted to know who it was so that he could kill him as soon as he recovered.
"Me." A sweet and crisp voice sounded from behind, and a beautiful, young and energetic woman walked in.
Looks well-behaved and sensible, harmless to humans and animals.
"Who are you?" Liu Dongsheng asked in confusion. He didn't even know this person. When had his family ever offended her?
Besides, how could a woman like her have the ability to bring down their family?
Xiangnan smiled at Liu Jianguo and said, "Secretary Liu, let me introduce myself. I'm Xiangnan, a villager from Daxiang Village, An County. It's an honor to meet you for the first time."
Liu Jianguo said with disdain: "I don't know her, Yu Yang, why did you bring her here?"
Yu Yang laughed: "Secretary Liu, it's really funny that you've been framed and are about to go to jail, but you don't even recognize the person who did it.
I'd like to introduce you to Xiangnan, the villager from the Xiangji Workshop in Daxiang Village who had an argument with your granddaughter and was poisoned by your daughter at her behest.
She was so pitiful, she was forced by your daughter to seek help from your son-in-law, and she committed suicide in front of your son-in-law to make him feel guilty.
Liu Jianguo's face changed drastically: "It's you! It's you who made Xie Zheng, this heartless man, betray our family! What's your relationship with Xie Zheng?!"
This bastard actually did it for a woman!"
Xiangnan smiled calmly: "Secretary Liu, please don't misunderstand me. Secretary Xie and I have nothing to do with each other. If you insist on making a connection, it's a cooperative relationship.
Secretary Xie Zheng is a good man. He reported you out of consideration for the people. This is a heroic act of self-sacrifice for the greater good, and he deserves praise and admiration.
"Impossible! This ungrateful guy can't defeat my dad." Liu Dongsheng didn't believe it.
"With the evidence from Secretary Xie's report, it would be easy to bring down Secretary Liu. The reporters from the radio and television stations are all men of justice. If we broadcast your story, the people will know about it.
Secretary Liu, you are greedy for the people's grain. Do you think they will let you go if they find out? They can drown you with their spit.
Secretary Liu, I heard that you are still waiting for your reinstatement in three years.
I advise you not to harm the interests of the people in any way you do. The people can overthrow even the emperor, let alone a mere secretary like you."
Xiangnan looked at Liu Dongsheng: "You seem to want to know where you lost. Let me tell you, you didn't lose to me, nor did you lose to us who tried every possible way to deal with you.
You lost because you touched the people's life-saving food. Do you know how many people in our countryside are still cooking with sweet potatoes and yams?
How dare you covet food! If you don't die, who will? "
Xiangnan paused and walked towards Liu Jianguo: "Secretary Liu has the confidence to be reinstated after three years, but he is just relying on the connections above him.
But I can tell you in advance that within a year, that person will have to see you in prison."
Liu Jianguo sneered: "Impossible, what do you little country girls know? Go back and cultivate your land. In two years, there won't even be any land left to farm."
Xiang Nan smiled: "Secretary Liu is indeed the one who taught scum like Liu Qing and Xie Dan. Even when he is about to die, he still dreams of revenge.
The person above you..."
Xiangnan leaned close to Liu Jianguo's ear and whispered a name.
Liu Jianguo's face changed, and he looked at Xiangnan as if he was looking at a ghost: "You...how could you..."
Xiangnan reached out and patted Liu Jianguo on the shoulder: "Don't be too surprised, you will be reunited in prison soon anyway.
Your daughter and granddaughter have been sent abroad, but your grandson and daughter-in-law are still here. Do you think they can wait for you to go out in three years?"
Xiangnan gave a cruel smile, turned and walked out of the room.
"Stop right there! Who the hell are you?! Impossible... Impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"
His contact with the person above was kept very secret. Not even Xie Zheng knew about it, and not even his son knew who that person was.
How did this village woman know this? She is obviously a farmer in the countryside, how could she know this!
