When they're protecting you, nothing seems like a big deal; when they're not protecting you, they can find fault even when nothing is wrong.
However, this is all normal. After questioning Wang Zhixing, Zeng Ming looked at Zhang Xingguo and Hou Peng and said, "Secretary Zhang, Mayor Hou, we have a general understanding of this matter. However, the project in Meilin Village is in the responsibility of Deputy Mayor Li. I would like to invite Deputy Mayor Li over to have a chat and ask about the situation."
Although Li Xiuyuan is only a deputy town mayor, he has a great reputation in the county government. Everyone knows that Li Xiuyuan represents Yun Yanchang when he comes to the central town. After they finish investigating this matter, no matter what the result is, they will definitely report to Yun Yanchang.
Therefore, during this investigation, we must definitely seek Li Xiuyuan's opinion. If Li Xiuyuan has other opinions, then we need to go to Meilin Village to investigate.
This was something Secretary Song Huai'an specifically instructed him to do before he came.
The previous incident involving Tian Zhijun and his brother made the Discipline Inspection Commission distrust Zhang Xingguo and Hou Peng. After all, Tian Zhijun's affairs were right under their noses, and it was impossible for them to be completely unaware of them.
As a result, the two of them managed to cover themselves up completely.
Zhang Xingguo and Hou Peng exchanged a glance. They had both considered this matter. The relaxed expression on Wang Zhixing's face immediately disappeared. If they invited Li Xiuyuan over, would Li Xiuyuan say a good word about him?
Judging from the level of importance the Discipline Inspection Commission attaches to Li Xiuyuan, it's clearly not in their best interest.
Wang Zhixing immediately looked to Zhang Xingguo and Hou Peng for help, hoping they would stop him.
But how could Zhang Xingguo and Hou Peng stop them? Zeng Ming's words, seemingly an inquiry, were actually a notification. He wanted to talk to Li Xiuyuan, the person in charge of this project; could they really refuse?
Even making excuses or delays can easily make people feel that something is amiss.
“Okay, then Secretary Zeng, I’ll have someone bring the comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission over.” Zhang Xingguo nodded and said. Just now, it was the comrades from the town who brought two people from the Discipline Inspection Commission to invite Wang Zhixing over. He thought that having Li Xiuyuan come over would be the same.
But Zeng Ming shook his head and said, "No need, our people won't go over. We just want to chat with Comrade Xiuyuan. You can arrange for someone to invite Comrade Xiuyuan over."
The reason I brought Wang Zhixing here was twofold: firstly, because Wang Zhixing is the person under investigation, and the disciplinary committee has no problem with that; secondly, it was also to put psychological pressure on Wang Zhixing and to deter him.
But it's different for Li Xiuyuan. It's perfectly normal for discipline inspection personnel to go to his office and bring him over. Even if they don't take him away, but just bring him to the meeting room, it still has a different meaning and could easily offend people.
Moreover, with Yun Yanchang behind Li Xiuyuan, it's even more important to pay attention to work methods.
Zhang Xingguo smiled and nodded in agreement, but inwardly he cursed, "Look, who said the Discipline Inspection Commission people are incorruptible and don't care about human relationships? This guy is quite considerate of human relationships, and he even knows it's inappropriate for the Discipline Inspection Commission people to go to the office to bring people, so he asked the town to arrange someone."
Li Xiuyuan was also waiting in his office for the disciplinary committee members to arrive. After receiving the notification, he nodded, got up, and went to the door of the Party Committee meeting room upstairs, where he gently knocked on the door.
The atmosphere in the conference room was very serious. After Li Xiuyuan entered, he looked at everyone in the conference room. Zhang Xingguo and Hou Peng were both there, as was Wang Zhixing, the person involved. On the other side of the conference table sat people from the Discipline Inspection Commission.
"Comrade Xiuyuan, right?" Zeng Ming stood up from his chair and spoke first.
Seeing this, Zhang Xingguo, though reluctant, still stood up to introduce them: "Deputy Mayor Li, this is from the Discipline Inspection Commission..."
“Secretary, I know.” Before Zhang Xingguo could finish introducing himself, Li Xiuyuan smiled and quickly stepped forward to shake Zeng Ming’s hand: “Secretary Zeng, hello, I am Li Xiuyuan.”
Zhang Xingguo's lips twitched. Damn it, I've known you for so long without saying a word, and now you've made me your stepping stone.
