He knew very well that the court's decision to sentence Du Guangsheng to life imprisonment had a deeper purpose: to save his life while also providing him with a glimmer of hope, giving him the opportunity to clear his name and regain his innocence.
This judgment is not only a protection for Du Guangsheng's fate, but also a helpless choice for the court when it is unable to uphold and maintain the principles of justice in the face of the law.
"It seems that the real culprit is very powerful! He can even make the traffic police department give false testimony for him!" Feng Yuxing said this with certainty, but it was also a test.
"Of course. The real culprit is related to a powerful force in the provincial capital. I suggest you investigate it thoroughly before deciding whether to intervene!" Qiao Bosong was giving Feng Yuxing a kind reminder.
Feng Yuxing also had another speculation that was verified, that is, the Secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission Ying Yunhong firmly opposed his intervention in the Du Guangsheng case at the Standing Committee meeting.
Obviously, if Du Guangsheng wants to be cleared of all charges, the real perpetrator must be apprehended. This raises the question: the traffic police who perjured themselves on behalf of the real perpetrator, and the police department, at least implicating Police Chief Qin Ling. Or perhaps someone in the city's leadership is involved.
"It seems that the reason my predecessor, Jin Yonghou, risked his political career to exercise the unique power of the Party Committee's top leader—to veto Qin Ling's concurrent appointment as deputy county magistrate—was not a power struggle!"
Feng Yuxing admired his predecessor, Jin Yonghou, for his Party principles, but lamented his lack of courage. "Wouldn't it be better to arrest the real perpetrator of the Du Guangsheng case? That wouldn't give Qin Ling a chance to compete for the position of deputy county magistrate!"
"Comrade Baisong, don't worry. I won't investigate the relationship of the real culprit. As long as we are sure who it is, we will arrest him directly! There is no second choice!" Feng Yuxing said with certainty.
"Comrade Zhixing! I have to remind you that the real culprit behind this incident is responsible for more than just this one thing. Pulling out a radish brings out the dirt! You're so young, yet you've already become the county party secretary. You have a bright future ahead of you... You should think carefully before making a decision. No one will laugh at you if you don't get involved. This matter itself is almost unsolvable!"
Qiao Bosong said this quite seriously and honestly, and his tone was low.
"Comrade Baisong, since you have investigated me, I have a famous saying. Haven't you found out about it?" Feng Yuxing said jokingly.
"Oh! What a famous saying. Does it work?" Qiao Bosong also said jokingly.
"The welfare of the people is the 'end of the universe' for me, Feng Yuxing. For those who harm the people, I am their 'end of the universe'!" Feng Yuxing said this as if he was bragging, and smiled after he finished speaking.
"Your 'End of the Universe' is a new way to play. I'm looking forward to seeing it!"
Qiao Bosong would not take Feng Yuxing's words as a joke just because he was laughing while speaking. After all, Feng Yuxing was the county party secretary, and these words were not something that could be used as a joke.
After Feng Yuxing left the court, he did not go to the procuratorate because he had confirmed his guess.
. . . . . .
On this day, Feng Yuxing went to the office of Zhang Feng, the office director, to have tea; his office had been renovated, but he was not in a hurry to go in to work. After all, the smell of methanol in the office had to be allowed to dissipate after the renovation.
"Comrade Lu Feng, it's been several days. What's the reaction of those people in our county party committee and county government?" Feng Yuxing said while sipping tea.
"Secretary, are you talking about Qin Ling being appointed as deputy county magistrate and Chang Xiao being appointed as police chief?" Lu Feng wanted to confirm the theme of Feng and Jargon.
"This is one of them. If you have any other objections, feel free to tell me!" Feng Yuhang spoke casually.
"They don't seem to have reached a unified opinion. Each individual or group sticks to their own position. Behind this may be the complex interests and power games involved, which leads them to adopt a wait-and-see attitude, with no one willing to take the lead in expressing their views or taking action.
Of course, one thing is certain: the reason they prevented you from getting involved in the Du Guangsheng case was likely due to pressure from the provincial capital.
Lu Feng also spoke very tactfully and did not make a definite conclusion.
"It seems that my warnings at the Standing Committee meeting that day didn't have any effect. Was it because I wasn't strong enough, or was it because they just couldn't think straight? Sigh! I've given them the chance, and now they're going to suffer!"
Feng Yuxing's words were both true and false. His attitude was compassionate, but his content showed that he was ready to deal with someone.
"This young man is so brave and cruel!" Lu Feng sighed in his heart, looking at Feng Yuxing and said, "Secretary, are you going to convene another Standing Committee meeting to promote this matter?"
"That's not necessary. They want to follow the suggestion I made at the Standing Committee that day, but it's too late now. Soon! Something will happen to Changming. As for how big the impact will be, I don't know. But I have to do this. Otherwise, my position in Changming will be meaningless!"
Feng Yuxing couldn't get much useful information from Lu Feng, so he could only reveal some true and false information to see how Changming County, Xiyun City, and even the province would react.
Two days later, Feng Yuxing felt it was time.
He called Zhang Feng, the police chief of Jiaoyou County, and asked Zhang Feng to handle the case across counties.
One day later in the afternoon, a truck loaded with office desks and chairs came from the provincial capital to Changming County; it entered the Changming County Party Committee and County Government. The destination of the delivery was the office of Feng Yuxing, Secretary of the Changming County Party Committee.
In the office, Feng Yuxing and Zhang Feng looked at each other and began to implement Feng Yuxing's plan to break the deadlock.
"Master, please help me install these office desks and chairs! I have been unable to work normally these days due to renovations and replacement of office desks and chairs!" Feng Yuxing spoke with a smile, and his voice was quite loud.
"Secretary Feng! Your desk is still very new! Why do you want to change it? Although I got a business deal by changing your desk and chair, it's a pity to throw away such good desks and chairs!" Zhang Feng's tone of voice showed that he was distressed that the original desks and chairs in Feng Yuxing's office were thrown away.
"Oh! You're talking about this! Hey! I just don't want to use my predecessor's things, it's unlucky! Look, I even asked the decorator to renovate this wall. Redecorate it? It's just to get rid of the bad luck from the past..." Feng Yuxing's words meant that they disliked things used by their predecessors because they were unlucky.
"Secretary Feng, could you please sell me these office tables, chairs and sofas at a low price? I'll take them back to refurbish them and then sell them. It would be a shame to throw them away!" Zhang Feng said distressedly.
