Shien had worked in logistics for a long time, and after going through all that, he especially hated noise. At home, Shi En's three wives never dared to speak loudly. When he got up in the morning, he would wash his face with water, put the towel next to the basin, open the toothpowder box, and put the toothbrush on top of the toothbrush. After washing up, Shi En would put his toothbrush and towel back in place.
The meal had already been served. Shi En ate alone and went to work. In the evening, before dinner time, Shien would send a guard home to inform him if he wanted to go home for dinner. What time would he be home if he went out for dinner? By the time he got home, the bath water was already prepared. If he goes home for dinner, it will be ready by the time he gets home. His wives waited on him to eat and drink. After asking about the children's homework, Shien went to rest.
There was no such service in the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Even after years of militarized management, Shien did not forget this. Although he would pause for a while before washing up every day, he would still prepare himself in the end.
When he was first suspended from work, there were many people who came to visit him. These representatives were all old acquaintances, and the latest to join the team was 1856. At that time, the size of the army was not large, and they had basically taken care of each other. But these people suddenly disappeared. Originally, the staff also addressed Shi En as "Governor Shi, please xxxx." Later on, they started calling him by his name. "Comrade Shi En, go to xxxx."
Shi En's expression became uglier and uglier, and his behavior became more and more uneasy. Those who had initially expressed their support for Shi En all vowed that as long as Shi En made his stand, everyone would definitely support him. Shi En still remembered that the last person to visit him was his old comrade, Wu Liao. Wu Liao said with a grave expression, "Old Shi, you shouldn't have gone against the Commander-in-Chief's decision. You have to think it over. You have to express it quickly. "
He was the last person who came to see Shien. Shien waited for a few days, and he kept asking to see Vézé. These requests were like stones sinking into the ocean. Shi En asked the staff every day, and in the end, the staff were annoyed. He said with a straight face, "Comrade Shi En, do you not believe us? Every time you say something here, we have to report it to the higher-ups. Now, when we go to see the leader, the leader will ask if it was that person who asked you to come! "
If it was in Hubei, who would have dared to speak to Shi En in such a manner? Shi En would have shown them how powerful he was. Now, Shi En could only keep a straight face and not say a word.
As the days passed, it was clear that the National Conference of the Restoration Party was coming to an end. Shi En picked up a pen and began to write on the stack of papers that had been on the table for several days. After he finished writing, Shi En solemnly handed the letter to the staff of the Commission for Discipline Inspection when he delivered meals every day. "Little comrade, please be sure to hand this letter to the Military Governor Wei."
After saying it once, he still felt uneasy and emphasized again, "Please hand the letter to the Military Governor Wei!"
After reading the letter, Ke Gongyu, the secretary of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, snorted heavily and slammed the letter on the table. As the governor of Hubei Province, even if he did not admit his mistake, he should at least express his thoughts and make it clear to Vézé. At least, that was what Ke Gongyu thought.
However, this letter was completely different. In the letter, Shi En only talked about his conflict with Pang Congcong. As expected of the person involved. Although Shi En's writing style was not as brilliant as that of a novel, he wrote the situation vividly. In the letter, Shi En clearly wrote about his moment of excitement and Pang Congcong's arrogance and fierceness. Just by looking at this letter, Shi En knew that it was a small mistake and Pang Congcong was not without responsibility. Moreover, Shi En specifically wrote that even though he was furious at that time, he did not really want to take action. However, Pang Congcong immediately took action and threw things at him. Shi En suffered because he did not want to take action.
The reason for Shi En's suspension was not because of his conflict with Pang Congcong. A few days ago, Pang Congcong's punishment had been issued. Because he threw documents at Shi En, Pang Congcong was given a small demerit, which was the first for a governor to give a demerit. However, Pang Congcong only had this problem. Shi En now clearly explained the conflict between him and Pang Congcong, but did not mention the real problem of his suspension. Of course, it was not that he did not mention it at all. Shi En said that he would make things clear after seeing Vézé.
If Shi En had done this at the beginning of the conflict, it was possible that Vézé would have seen him. Now that Vézé had unified the party's thinking, even if everyone did not accept the formation of the National People's Congress, they were not willing to follow the old system of Manchu Qing and then be destroyed like Manchu Qing. Therefore, everyone agreed to support Vézé's request to form the National People's Congress.
Vézé made it clear that in theory, the National People's Congress was the highest authority. The process of transferring the executive power from the Central Committee of the Restoration Party to the National People's Congress must be approved by all the representatives of the Restoration Party. Everyone looked at Vézé's proposal again. At first, the National People's Congress did not immediately obtain full power. A compromise was initially reached.
At this point, everyone could not wait to avoid Shi En. Who would be willing to stand with someone who openly opposed the Military Governor Vaize? Although Shi En was the governor of Hubei Province, he only had one vote in the Restoration Party's National Representative Conference, and it was not a key vote. In terms of institutional arrangements, there was still the secretary of the provincial party committee and a group of executive deputy governors. Without him, the operation of the Restoration Party and the government would not be affected at all.
"Secretary Ke, should we send the letter to the commander-in-chief?" the deputy secretary next to him asked.
"Send it," Ke Gongyu said helplessly.
The deputy secretary did not mention whether they should guide the matter of giving a favor or not. The Commission for Discipline Inspection had done this before. They felt that their comrades did not recognize the key problem and guided them. In the end, they were criticized as "inducing confessions." In the face of a suspended governor, especially a governor who knew how to shirk responsibility from the letter, the Commission for Discipline Inspection was not willing to look for trouble. There were only two people who could deal with giving a favor. One was Vézé, and the other was Premier Bi Qingshan. Vézé was busy, and Bi Qingshan did not say a word. The Commission for Discipline Inspection had no reason to take action against a suspended governor who did not violate party discipline or national law.
When Vézé received the letter forwarded by the Commission for Discipline Inspection, he happened to be discussing business with the Standing Committee and having a working dinner in the middle. The establishment of the National People's Congress was not a simple matter. It included population statistics and the proportion of people at different levels. How many people would be elected to the National People's Congress? In many villages, there were too few people who met the qualifications to select the National People's Congress. Moreover, the household registration system itself also involved the issue of marriage registration. This was another practical problem related to the "Marriage Law."
Persuading the National Representative Conference of the Restoration Party to accept Vézé's proposal was only the first step, and the subsequent work was very complicated. As long as 30% of the representatives really did not cooperate, the establishment of the National People's Congress would become a joke.
After reading the letter, Vézé did not bring it out for discussion. Before the matter of the National People's Congress was settled, bringing up the matter of giving a favor would create new problems. Even if it was out of an attitude of protecting Shi En, Vézé could only deal with it coldly. The entire party had just reached an agreement. If Shi En raised questions about the principled resolution, would he be waiting for everyone to criticize him?
Seeing Vézé put away the letter without saying a word after reading it, Wei Changrong couldn't help but ask, "Commander-in-chief, what letter is it?"
Vézé wanted to shirk the responsibility, but after thinking about it, it was not appropriate. He handed the letter to Wei Changrong without saying a word. After reading a few words, a mocking look appeared on Wei Changrong's face. After reading it hastily, Wei Changrong also handed the letter back to Vézé without a word. The other Standing Committee members saw that the two did not say a word. Some people were curious, while others pretended not to see it.
Shi En's matter could not be dragged on like this. Vézé finally let everyone read the letter. All the Standing Committee members were silent. Shi En was still unwilling to lower his noble head at this point. The Standing Committee members were speechless. What should they say to a governor who had been left far behind by the organization? There might only be one sentence left. Go where you want to cool off.
Vézé looked at Bi Qingshan. Facing Vézé's gaze, Bi Qingshan first lowered his head, then he resolutely raised his head. "I think Comrade Shi En should be dismissed. After the incident, Comrade Pang Congcong made a deep reflection at the time and wrote a self-examination. Comrade Shi En still refused to reflect on the fact that he had gotten into a fight. As for the public opposition's policy, he has not reflected on it for so long. If this goes on, we don't have to discuss work. We can just fight. "
After Bi Qingshan's suggestion, no one on the Standing Committee continued to speak. It was not that no one wanted to plead for Shi En, but Shi En's confrontational attitude made everyone unable to find an entry point to plead. After being ignored for so long, he still did not know to approach the organization. It was not surprising to say that he was disloyal. There was no problem in characterizing his performance as not putting the organization in his eyes. Shi En did not put the organization in his eyes, so why should the organization look up to Shi En? Not to mention Vézé, any member of the Standing Committee would not bow to Shi En.
Seeing that everyone was silent, Vézé said, "The salary remains the same. Let Comrade Shi En go to the Party School to study."
Kindness coming from the top was a good way to deal with the feudal system. Although Vézé did not want to do this now, he could only do so now. Shi En was definitely not the only person in the opposition's current basic policy. Showing the bottom line of the struggle was the only means Vézé could take now.
There could be a struggle, and there would be a winner and a loser in the struggle. If the end of the loser was to erase more than ten years of contributions, it would only make the current group of meritorious ministers feel insecure. No matter how tough Vézé was, he did not have the courage to directly confront so many meritorious ministers. Contacting Shi En's administrative position was within the scope of the State Council's authority, so Bi Qingshan had to come out and speak. When Shi En only had a party position left, it was time for Vézé, the chairman of the Restoration Party, to speak.
The Standing Committee had the power to make decisions, so a vote was held at the dinner table. The resolution was passed unanimously.
Early the next morning, the resolution appeared on the board of the National Conference of Representatives and was also distributed to the heads of the various delegations. The future of a provincial governor had come to an end just like that. Some people felt regretful, while others felt relieved.
