Rebirth of the Rising Sun

Without letting Zhang Hai think too much, He Shasha continued, "The two standing next to me must be the two witnesses that your Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has been looking for. They are Zhao Ying and Zhao Min, my sisters, or my sisters-in-law, because they are the two daughters of Zhao Wangang, director of the Central Security Bureau, Sizhe's uncle. During the New Year's Day holiday, the two of them came to Zhuangcheng City to play with their eldest brother. This is a very common thing, but who knows that your Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection is really making a fuss, and actually holding on to such a private matter of the Feng family, and forcibly detaining a deputy ministerial cadre, a dignified mayor, for as long as 72 hours. I want to ask, why is this? Are you specifically targeting my husband, or is your Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection just having nothing to do? I think this is a big problem. Today I brought my two sisters here to explain the situation to the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. And this is Zhao Ying and Zhao Min's identity certificate. Please take a closer look to see if there is any problem. If not, we will leave. I have already called Secretary Guan and I want to report this matter to him. Goodbye."

After He Shasha finished her conversation with Zhang Hai, she turned around and nodded to Zhao Ying and Zhao Min. The three of them strode out of Li Yongyi's office, leaving Li Yongyi still in a daze, with a look of confusion on his face.

Tian Wei had been waiting for He Shasha and others downstairs in the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. As the first secretary of Zhongzhou Province, he was waiting here specifically for He Shasha and the other two. This was the face that Guan Changxiao gave them.

When He Shasha appeared in front of Guan Changxiao, the provincial party secretary naturally had to comfort her. He immediately stated that he would deal with the matter seriously. At the same time, he called Zhang Hai in front of He Shasha. "Secretary Zhang? I'm Guan Changxiao. I think you must have investigated the issue of Comrade Feng Sizhe. Since you are wrong, you should admit your mistakes humbly. So, I think you should release Comrade Feng Sizhe immediately. At the same time, in order to reduce the adverse effects on related parties, I think Comrade Zhang Hai needs to go to the Zhuangcheng Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to explain the matter clearly. Don't you think so?"

"Yes, yes, Secretary Guan is right. There are some misunderstandings in this matter. I will apologize to Comrade Feng Sizhe and clear his name." At this time, Zhang Hai could only accept the opinion raised by Guan Changxiao. It was his fault that he made a major mistake in his work. It would be disadvantageous to go against him at this time.

"Okay, then I'll wait for your news. If this matter is not handled well, I think we must report it to the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection." Guan Changxiao said this after hanging up the phone.

After hanging up the phone with Guan Changxiao, Zhang Hai became more depressed. He knew that Secretary Guan wanted to use this matter to make a fuss. It made sense. He had always been at odds with him and had always stood on the side of Governor Tang Chengwei. Now that he had made a mistake in his work, would he be forgiven? It seemed that he needed to deal with the aftermath clearly, otherwise it would be very troublesome.

In the following time, he received a call from the provincial governor Tang Chengwei himself, in which he explained the matter about Feng Sizhe. The director of the Cadre Office of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection, Li Qiujuan, who was also a member of the 17th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and was then at the vice-ministerial level, called and specifically mentioned the unfair treatment of Comrade Feng Sizhe by Zhongzhou City. Director Li said that if Zhongzhou Province did not handle this matter well, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection would intervene and it could be used as an example of lower-level cadres abusing disciplinary power.

This phone call was actually Li Qiujuan's challenge, telling Tang Chengwei that she has been paying close attention to this matter. Don't think that Feng Sizhe is easy to bully. If the matter really gets out of hand, then sorry, they will also use the family power to intervene in this matter. If that happens, as the governor and Zhang Hai's backer, you, Tang Chengwei, will lose face.

Although in terms of rank, Li Qiujuan is only a deputy minister and cannot compare with Tang Chengwei, who is the governor and a ministerial-level official, but she is the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and has a great say in certain aspects. This time, the Zhongzhou Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has made a mistake again. If they really pursue this matter, it will be very troublesome.

After receiving Tang Chengwei's call, Zhang Hai's mood became even worse. He even anticipated that his career as the provincial discipline inspection committee secretary might be over. Even if this matter could be handled well, there would be endless troubles. But despite this, he still had to handle this matter well, because if he failed to handle it well, it would not be a question of whether he could continue to be the discipline inspection committee secretary, but whether he could retire peacefully.

Just when Zhang Hai was very distressed, his deputy Li Yongyi had already arrived at Feng Sizhe's room. As soon as he entered the room, he was all smiles, which was completely different from his serious face in the past two days. "Haha, Mayor Feng, hello, hello."

Feng Sizhe was lying on the bed, thinking about things. According to his estimation, things should be almost over. He had discussed with He Shasha before he came in. If he didn't call her after 48 hours, He Shasha would come to Zhongzhou Province from Jianghuai Province to ask for an explanation. Now it seems that the time has come. I'm afraid He Shasha should have arrived in Zhongzhou Province.

Seeing Li Yongyi's obvious flattery, Feng Sizhe was happy. He knew that He Shasha outside must have started to exert pressure, and the Zhongzhou Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection must have known the truth of the matter. They must be regretting it now.

"It's Secretary Li. Please don't call me mayor. I'm under investigation now. I think you should just call me by my name. It's best not to add the word comrade after my name." Feng Sizhe looked at Li Yongyi and spoke in a cold tone.

"Hey, what did Mayor Feng say? You have always been my comrade, and I always thought I treated you as my comrade." Li Yongyi saw Feng Sizhe becoming aggressive, and he could only secretly complain in his heart, but there was really nothing he could do. Who made them do something wrong? If you do something wrong, you must be aware that you have done something wrong.

"Really? Have you always treated me as your comrade? But these two days I see that you haven't done so at all, and you don't have such awareness. You say that I have problems and want to investigate me, that's fine, but my most basic human rights have not been deprived, at least I am still a party member, but I asked to read the party newspaper, and read the Zhongzhou Provincial Daily in recent days, why don't you agree? This is a complete attempt to isolate me, isn't it? Now you say that I and are comrades, how can I accept this?" Feng Sizhe took the opportunity to talk about all the unfair things he had encountered.

"Yes, yes, this is all our fault. Our subordinates are ignorant. Mayor Feng, please forgive us and don't bother with them. I apologize to you here. Do you think you can stop caring about it? Oh, by the way, I am here to announce the decision of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection on you. Since everything is a misunderstanding, Mayor Feng is now free and can return to your job. What do you think?" Li Yongyi nodded and bowed, completely throwing aside the face of a deputy secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. He only said nice things, and he also believed that he would be happy if he took the initiative to say that he would release Feng Sizhe. Just imagine, which cadre investigated by the Commission for Discipline Inspection did not want to wait for this sentence in the end. He believed that Feng Sizhe would be no exception.

But in fact, Feng Sizhe was an exception. "What? You said this was a misunderstanding and I can leave?"

"Yes, yes, Mayor Feng, you can leave here anytime now." Li Yongyi said with a smile, because he also thought that Feng Sizhe said this because he was happy.

"What a joke! You say I have a problem and you can lock me up for 72 hours. You say I have no problem and you can let me go. Who do you think I am? Who do you think you are? I'm just telling you, I won't leave unless you give me a clear explanation on this matter. You can do whatever you want." As he spoke, Feng Sizhe turned his head away, looking like he was going to sleep, and ignored Li Yongyi.

"You..." Seeing Feng Sizhe was now in trouble, Li Yongyi was of course unhappy, but after just one word "you", he didn't say anything else. He sighed and suppressed the impetuousness in his heart. He continued, "Mayor Feng, you see, I have said that all this is a misunderstanding, and I also said that this is all my fault. So what do you want? Just tell me, as long as your request is not too excessive, I will try my best to satisfy you, do you think it's okay?"

"You don't need to talk too much here. Please invite Secretary Zhang. We are not equals, so we can't talk." Feng Sizhe still didn't turn his head and directly said to Li Yongyi. Indeed, Feng Sizhe was a member of the Zhongzhou Provincial Party Committee and a deputy ministerial-level cadre. It was really wrong to let a director-level official talk to him about how to solve the problem.

"Okay, then I'll go and ask Secretary Zhang for instructions." Li Yongyi also knew that based on the current situation, no matter how much he said, it would not have any effect. Instead of this, it would be better to waste less time talking and leave the problem to the leaders to solve. Anyway, he had done what he should do and said what he should say.

When Li Yongyi went to find Zhang Hai, he did not have much hope, because even during the 72 hours that Feng Sizhe was imprisoned, Zhang Hai did not show up once. Now that the situation was not right, he would not take the initiative to stand up. But to his surprise, when he told Zhang Hai about Feng Sizhe's request, Zhang Hai immediately agreed.
