After hanging up the phone, Yang Heping fell into silence. He sat at his desk, clasped his five fingers on his abdomen, took two deep breaths, and seemed to be hesitant about something.
He could not disobey Peng Yutao's order, and he had to take action first, even if it was just a formality. Soon, he called and notified everyone, and immediately went to Shannan County to investigate the Liu Zhong case and the person responsible.
After doing all this, he called Qian Lingyun.
When the call was connected, Yang Heping first asked Qian Lingyun if it was convenient for him to talk. After getting the reply, he pondered and said, "Old Qian, the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection has already begun investigating the Shannan County case. Li Lin will definitely be dealt with by the organization this time. You know what's going on. It's a done deal. You have to be patient and don't panic."
Upon hearing this, Qian Lingyun was unusually calm.
Because he knew that the fact that Yang Heping called to tell him about this matter proved that the Discipline Inspection Commission had already taken action against Li Lin, or would take action soon...it was too late to do anything now.
He sighed softly and nodded silently, "Secretary Yang, thank you for informing me... You know me well, I won't do anything foolish, but I can't swallow this!"
The first half of the sentence is for the public good, and the second half is purely for the friendship between old classmates.
Yang Heping also felt very sorry. Although he didn't know much about Li Lin, it was not difficult to tell from Qian Lingyun's care for him that this man must be a man of great talent, otherwise Qian Lingyun would not have gone to such lengths to protect him again and again, even at the cost of turning against Peng Yutao.
Qian Lingyun is a person who values talent, and ordinary people are not really worthy of his attention.
"Old Qian, now that things have come to this, stop saying these meaningless words. You can't go against Peng Yutao for that kid, can you? Once the Pingyang Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government split, the Provincial Party Committee will intervene immediately. At that time, one of you will be transferred, or both of you will be fired... This will hurt both sides, so don't act on impulse."
Yang Heping said earnestly, he knew Qian Lingyun's temper too well, and was afraid that he would lose control and go to Peng Yutao to argue. Although he didn't say it explicitly, his words hinted that if the two of them really couldn't get along, Qian Lingyun would be the one who suffered in the end!
In this case in Shannan County, Peng Yutao has absolute power of disposal. As far as the current situation is concerned, Li Lin does have an unshirkable responsibility... Now the advantage is on Peng Yutao, and anyone who speaks for Li Lin can be considered to be partial!
If Qian Lingyun insists on standing up for Li Lin, he will be put in a passive position!
"Oh..." Qian Lingyun understood these principles, and he had a clear view of the current situation. However, he felt uncomfortable watching Li Lin being dealt with without doing anything. On the one hand, he was slapped in the face by Peng Yutao, and on the other hand, Li Lin had helped him a lot, and if he just let go of him now, wouldn't that be ungrateful?
How would he face Li Lin, as well as Li Lan, Sun Huaide and others who helped him win the mayoral position?
"Okay, calm down for a moment. I will keep you updated on the progress of the case. You are the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, so it is reasonable for me to discuss the work with you... That's it for now. I'm hanging up now."
After saying that, Yang Heping hung up the phone.
Qian Lingyun leaned back in his chair, slowly closed his eyes, and fell into deep thought...
Suddenly, he picked up the phone and called Li Lan who was in Yanjing.
He wants to plead guilty.
He expressed his shame for not being able to protect Li Lin, and he wanted to gain the forgiveness of Li Lan, Sun Huaide and others...
The phone beeped twice and then was connected, and Li Lan's long-lost voice appeared in the receiver.
"Hello, Mayor Qian?"
"Minister Li, it's me, Qian Lingyun."
"What's up?"
"It's Xiaolin... I'm sorry, I didn't protect him well and let you down."
Then, Qian Lingyun recounted to Li Lan in detail what happened in Shannan County, but he was interrupted by Li Lan halfway through his words.
Li Lan said calmly, "I understand. You don't have to feel any psychological pressure. I will handle it."
You...you handle it?
Qian Lingyun was shocked by Li Lan's domineering remarks. He thought that Li Lan was now in Yanjing and had no strong roots in Hanjiang Province... Why did she sound so sure and confident?
"Minister Li, I'd like to ask, how do you plan to deal with this? Is there anything you need me to do?" Qian Lingyun asked sincerely.
Li Lan just smiled and said, "Just do your job well and I'll let you know when I need you."
"Okay, okay... I understand..."
After hanging up the phone, Qian Lingyun still looked confused...
What happened to Li Lin was obviously done by Peng Yutao with malicious intent. Could it be that Li Lan has a way to make Peng Yutao change his mind?
Even if she is still the executive vice minister of the Provincial Party Committee Organization Department, this possibility is not very high, right?
He was surprised...shocked...and simply couldn't believe it.
Li Lan was still wearing a well-fitting suit, and he walked elegantly but somewhat hurriedly through the courtyard of a Chinese-style garden building.
Walk around a rockery, cross a small bridge, pass through the corridor, and stop in front of a vermilion wooden door.
The guard at the door took the work permit she handed over, saluted her, and said respectfully, "Minister Li, please follow me."
Li Lan smiled and nodded, then followed the guards in black uniforms into the house.
The house was paved with old-style tiles. After passing through an aisle and turning a corner, the view in front of us suddenly opened up to a garden within a garden.
After walking in the corridor for a while, I finally arrived in front of an ancient and heavy door.
The guard saluted Li Lan and said, "The commander is waiting for you inside. Please."
