News of the fight between the two governors quickly spread to Vézé. Vézé had to reflect on whether he was a heartless person, because after hearing the news, not only was he not angry, but he found it very interesting.
The secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, Ke Gongyu, personally took charge of the dispute. This senior officer, who had been a brigade commander for more than ten years, transferred to the Commission for Discipline Inspection. His report was very simple. "Neither of them was convinced of the other's superiority. Comrade Shi En rushed up first, but then he probably remembered that Comrade Pang Congcong was a woman, so he stopped before he made a move. Comrade Pang Congcong smashed a stack of documents on Comrade Shi En's head. No one was injured, but Comrade Shi En's face was bruised by the corner of the documents. "
In truth, it didn't matter whether there was any serious injury. After all, they were both governors, and they had at least some rationality. However, they were both governors, and they couldn't afford to lose face. In the future, the two would probably be like fire and water.
Ke Gongyu continued, "I investigated. At the time, the governor and Premier Bi were discussing whether to support the establishment of the National People's Congress. It was said that Comrade Shi En was emotional at the time, but Premier Bi had no intention of coming forward. Comrade Pang Congcong expressed her firm support for the governor. Comrade Shi En felt embarrassed, and in the end, they quarreled. "
"In other words, the one who caused trouble was Comrade Shi En." Vézé wanted to confirm it again.
"That's what most of the comrades said," Ke Gongyu replied.
"In that case, we have to record a small demerit and let him do his own self-reflection," Vézé said in a business-like manner.
"What is the content of the self-reflection?" Ke Gongyu asked.
"What was the reason for his anger? Was it because of the pressure of work, or because he couldn't complete his work? Anger doesn't solve the problem, it only makes the work harder. Therefore, as a civil servant, Comrade Shi En did not do his job well. If he can clearly reflect on this, then we can talk about the negative impact his actions had on the work of his comrades. "Vézé straightforwardly put forward his opinion.
With a surprised and moved expression, Ke Gongyu said, "Governor, you are so good to Comrade Shi En."
Vézé was not so optimistic. He said seriously, "If he can realize this, then I will be kind to him in return. If he doesn't understand this, you'll have your work cut out for you. "
When Ke Gongyu personally talked to Shi En, Shi En asked, "What's the punishment for Pang Congcong?"
This question and that unforgiving attitude caused Ke Gongyu's heart to tighten. This was the typical behavior of a troublemaker in the army. He was capable, had personality, dared to speak his mind, had a certain degree of charisma, and was also scheming. When it came to the interests of a certain group of people, they would stand up and not let go. Ten years ago, the Liberation Army had carried out a round of purges against such people and cleared them out of the organization. Ke Gongyu had to admit that it had been a long time since he had seen such a person.
The instructors were the core of an army. This was not only because the members of the instructors were outstanding and well-equipped. The most important reason for instructing troops was that these troops were responsible for a large number of research projects. Of course, military research was the most important part, but military psychology and human behavior were also important tasks for teaching troops. Even though Shi En was not a cadre of the Instructional Brigade, he had been there before. In Ke Gongyu's impression, this person was not like this.
As the commander of the Instructional Brigade, Ke Gongyu had great patience. If he did not have patience, he would not be able to continue in the Instructional Brigade. The Instructional Brigade could indeed receive all kinds of resources, including the direct and indirect help of a group of senior generals, including Vézé. However, how could research projects be so easy? It was one failure after another, one accident after another. Those who were not mentally strong enough, who thought that joining the Instructional Brigade was just to gain experience, and who thought that joining the Instructional Brigade would give them a smooth road to promotion, would all end up badly in this high-tech research unit. This was a heavy blow on the road to promotion.
Shi En's attitude was tough, but Ke Gongyu was not moved at all. He had seen too many people like this. Ke Gongyu said calmly, "We're talking about your matter now. What does it have to do with Governor Pang?"
"I was smashed! That's my business. Pang Congcong smashed me, and I'm just going to let it go? "It seemed that Shi En did not understand Ke Gongyu's attitude at all.
Ke Gongyu looked calm, but he was very confused in his heart. Shi En's current performance was not even comparable to a platoon leader, let alone the level of a governor. Ten years ago, many people in the army still put their personal reputation first. After all, in that era, there was no "reputation", and there was no appeal. With the improvement of the system and the improvement of the internal education level, this kind of people were constantly eliminated. Shi En's "old habits" did not make Ke Gongyu angry, but it made him feel puzzled. What kind of knot did Shi En have in his heart that made him completely ignore his evaluation and his future, and blindly vent his personal emotions?
"Why, you don't dare to tell me how to deal with Pang Congcong? When the Discipline Inspection Commission doesn't dare to speak up again? " Shi En saw Ke Gongyu's thoughtful look and felt that he had caught Ke Gongyu's weakness. He did not intend to stop, nor did he know when to stop. Instead, he tried to "follow up".
After all, the person in front of him was a comrade, and a governor at that. Ke Gongyu was very clear that if he allowed Shi En to continue like this, or even a little provocation, the following records would be sent to Vézé, and Vézé would probably dismiss Shi En. Even if he did not hand them over to Vézé, but to Prime Minister Bi Qingshan, he would not be able to escape a period of reflection. This kind of thing had happened several times in the army during the purges. The Political and Legal Affairs Commission, as well as the National Committee for the Elimination of Counter-Revolutionaries and Anti-Slacking, had gone through such a process. If they could not even stand being wronged, they did not need to work in these two departments. Playing this kind of trick was too common for the Political and Legal Affairs Commission.
But Ke Gongyu was not willing to do this. Shi En was, after all, a governor. If they were to get rid of a governor because of a small matter, the Political and Legal Affairs Commission would bear terrible pressure. So Ke Gongyu had to soften a little. He asked, "What do you think Comrade Pang Congcong will be punished?"
Shi En had a mocking expression on his face that said, "I knew you wouldn't punish Pang Congcong." He sneered and said, "Do you want me to tell the truth or lie?"
"If you have anything to say, just say it!" Ke Gongyu replied. After saying this, he felt great regret in his heart. How could he have directly said the words to deal with a thorn in his side? Although his rationality kept reminding Ke Gongyu not to intensify the conflict, the power of habit was too strong. Just when Ke Gongyu's rationality occupied most of his attention, the words that had become a natural habit slipped out of his mouth. Ke Gongyu thought, no wonder the Commander in Chief repeatedly said to be careful with his words and actions, and to think carefully before speaking.
Of course, reflection and even self-criticism were the same thing. Ke Gongyu did not continue to feel regret. In his teaching career, and in many of his later jobs, he had made more serious mistakes than this. If he was blindly regretful, Ke Gongyu could use suicide to find relief.
"If you want me to tell the truth, I will tell the truth. Get rid of Pang Congcong, the governor! What kind of decent things can a woman do? I don't know what the Commander in Chief is thinking. Men and women are equal. The people below are thinking about how to be lazy and how to fish all day long. Building a large number of people and letting them fight against us? Is the Commander in Chief confused? "Shi En's voice was loud and clear, and he really expressed his thoughts.
After that, Shi En did not even need Ke Gongyu to "guide" him. Shi En cursed Vézé's policy to his heart's content. The scribes' hands moved, recording it down without missing a word.
That evening, the Standing Committee sat in the office, and the secretary read Shi En's original words. Everyone's faces became more and more ugly. Bi Qingshan stood up and wanted to speak, but Vézé waved his hand at him. "Listen to this to the end. Interrupting halfway will only make everyone unable to listen to Comrade Shi En's meaning. The harm of taking things out of context is much greater than spending more time listening to it."
The Standing Committee had heard this kind of nonsense many times, and it did not make a difference whether they listened to it or not. The core point was one sentence: "I am not wrong!" Everyone's experience was very accurate. Shi En's way of doing things was indeed like this. Since Shi En believed that he was right, the person who was wrong was Vézé. From equality between men and women, the basic idea of the Restoration Party, to many existing policies and systems, Shi En happily criticized them.
Seeing that Vézé was listening seriously, those who did not care about Shi En were puzzled why Vézé did not have a trace of anger in the face of such fierce criticism. Those who cared about Shi En a lot felt fear in their hearts. How was Vézé going to punish Shi En?
After the secretary finished reading these things, Vézé let out a long sigh of relief. Everyone held their breath and looked at Vézé, waiting for the final verdict from his mouth.
"Comrade Shi En is a governor. His punishment will have a great political impact. I think everyone is very clear about this, right? "Vézé said calmly.
Of course, all the participants agreed with this view. The governor was one of the top 100 bigwigs in the new government, and the punishment of the governor would certainly have a great political impact.
"Everyone here is a member of the Politburo. The Politburo is a highly political department. When this matter is brought up to the Politburo, we have to be highly political. Politics is not about human feelings. Just because I like or don't like Comrade Shi En, I can't let my personal emotions take over. Let's deal with the matter as it is. Does everyone agree? "Vézé said, staring at the members of the Standing Committee.
"Then how does Your Majesty plan to deal with Comrade Shi En?" Bi Qingshan was the Premier of the State Council, after all, and he had to ask this question.
Vézé was very unhappy with this, but he said patiently, "From a personal point of view, Comrade Shi En is a simple person. I have no intention of dealing with him. What is there to deal with if he is a person? If I see him as a person, I will take it that he is talking nonsense after drinking too much. There is nothing wrong with that. "
Without waiting for the comrades to breathe a sigh of relief, Vézé increased his tone. "But we are now discussing a governor of Hubei Province, a member of the Restoration Party, and a representative of the Restoration Party's National Representative Conference. How should we deal with a governor of Hubei Province, a member of the Restoration Party, and a representative of the Restoration Party's National Representative Conference? Do you understand the difference? "
Hearing that Vézé did not want to deal with Shi En, some people were happy, and some were unhappy. But when they heard Vézé put forward the attitude of a party member and a public servant from the perspective of the party and the government, no one dared to speak again.
Vézé looked at the embarrassed expressions of the people, and he also knew that this was not a good time to give his opinion. He said loudly, "I will assign a topic. When the comrades in the meeting go home today, write an explanatory essay. The content is to discuss the similarities and differences between an ordinary person, a governor of Hubei Province, a member of the Restoration Party, and a representative of the Restoration Party's National Representative Conference. What is the difference between their responsibilities and obligations! Alright, meeting adjourned! "
