Cheng Rong Jiang knew the result almost immediately after the small-scaled Standing Committee meeting ended. His face instantly turned pale as he slammed the table angrily. Cheng Rong Jiang was so angry that he couldn't say a word. Conspiracy, this was a shameless conspiracy.
Cheng Rong Jiang, what's wrong? Why are you so angry? Zhuang Caixia didn't know the content of the call and asked with concern.
Just now, the Municipal Party Committee held a meeting, and they want me to retire. Cheng Rong Jiang looked at his wife. He was so angry that he couldn't breathe. Caixia, don't you think it's ridiculous?
Cheng Rong Jiang, don't be angry. Did you make a mistake? Zhuang Caixia was also anxious. Looking at her husband's expression, she knew that her husband was extremely angry. She was also worried for her husband. Her husband was the chief prosecutor and didn't make any mistakes. How could the Municipal Party Committee ask her husband to retire for no reason? They said that he retired because of illness, but it was obvious that they wanted to get rid of her husband.
Wrong? How could such a thing be wrong? Cheng Rongjiang was so angry that he started laughing. Yesterday, it was Xu Jingsen, his trusted subordinate. Today, the spearhead was pointed at him. What a good excuse for him to recuperate and rest. With such an excuse, he wanted to kick him out of his position as the chief prosecutor.
The leaders of the Municipal Party Committee are too ruthless and black-hearted. You just had a car accident and narrowly escaped death, and they want to remove you from your position. What kind of leader is this? Do these people still have any humanity left? What's wrong with them? What's wrong with them? Zhuang Caixia said angrily.
If a leader is soft-hearted, he can't be a leader. How can a leader be a kind person? How many of the leaders in the city are good people? Cheng Rong Jiang sneered, but there was still a trace of anger on his face. This news came too suddenly, so much so that he was unable to accept it for a moment. His words were also extremely rude. Normally, he would never say such disrespectful words to his superiors. However, at this moment, Cheng Rong Jiang was obviously furious to a certain extent.
Cheng Rong Jiang, you should call Mayor Chen and ask Mayor Chen to think of a way. He might have a way. Zhuang Caixia said anxiously. She suddenly thought of Chen Xing.
There was no need to call. It would be useless even if he called. Mayor Chen was still out of town. What could he do if he called him? He would just make things difficult for him. Cheng Rongjiang shook his head. Moreover, this was the result of the meeting of the Standing Committee. Even if Mayor Chen was in the city, he could not change the result.
There was one more thing that Cheng Rongjiang didn't say. Actually, even if he didn't call Chen Xing, Chen Xing wouldn't be slower than him in receiving the news.
What should we do? We can't really let them remove you from your position. It wasn't easy for you to get this position. Don't tell me you're going to be removed just like that? Zhuang Caixia felt indignant for her husband. The position of the chief prosecutor was a high-ranking deputy office, and her husband also had a certain identity and status in the city. Now, he was about to turn 50, and he might be able to go further in the future. But this time, he was removed from his position in disguise. No one would be willing to accept this.
This is the decision of the Municipal Party Committee. How can I, a prosecutor, openly go against the decision of the Party Committee? Cheng Rong Jiang's face turned pale.
No, there should be a turn for the better. Zhuang Caixia murmured to herself.
As soon as Zhuang Caixia finished her words, Cheng Rongjiang's phone rang. He picked up the phone and saw the caller ID. His expression softened slightly and he smiled bitterly. Old leader, has the Provincial Procuratorate received the notice from the city?
Yes, the Municipal Party Committee has already sent their opinion to the Provincial Procuratorate. It's about the change of your position. The Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee suggested that you should retire due to illness and choose a suitable candidate to be the chief prosecutor. The Provincial Procuratorate is also carefully considering the opinion of the Municipal Party Committee. I just came out of the office.
The person who called was the Deputy Chief Prosecutor of the Provincial Procuratorate, Ceng Shiyuan. He was previously the chief prosecutor of Nanzhou City. He was transferred from the position of Nanzhou City Inspector to the Provincial Procuratorate. He was Cheng Rongjiang's old leader. He played a big role in Cheng Rongjiang becoming the chief prosecutor of Nanzhou City. This time, Ceng Shiyuan was also very shocked when he received the suggestion from the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee. He didn't expect the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee to make an example out of Cheng Rongjiang. As for the reason given by the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee, in Ceng Shiyuan's opinion, it was nothing more than an excuse. As the saying goes, if you want to put a crime on someone, you can always find a pretext. Cheng Rongjiang was obviously a victim of the political struggle.
Old leader, it seems like there's no room for redemption. Cheng Rongjiang listened to Ceng Shiyuan's words, and the smile on his face became more and more bitter. Ceng Shiyuan said the words' carefully consider ', basically indirectly telling him that the Provincial Procuratorate wouldn't have a different opinion from the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee.
Qi Jian's attitude was very important. From his tone, it seemed like he wanted to respect the opinion of the Municipal Party Committee. Ceng Shiyuan sighed. The Qi Jian he mentioned was the head of the Provincial Procuratorate, Qi Jiang. If the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee sent the opinion to the Provincial Procuratorate, then Qi Jiang's attitude was very important. If Qi Jiang opposed, then it would be quite troublesome for the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee to remove Cheng Rongjiang from the position of Prosecutor General. However, Qi Jiang didn't have the intention to have a conflict with the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee. He specifically went to test Qi Jiang's attitude. Qi Jiang's meaning was very clear. Since it was the unified opinion of the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee, then he must respect the opinion of the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee.
Ceng Shiyuan understood that Qi Jiang's approach was not objectionable. If he was in Qi Jiang's position, then he might also do the same. Of course, due to his relationship with Cheng Rongjiang, he certainly wouldn't sit by and watch Cheng Rongjiang be removed from his position. He would fight for an opportunity for Cheng Rongjiang to be transferred to the province. Since the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee couldn't tolerate Cheng Rongjiang, then he would transfer Cheng Rongjiang to the province. Presumably, this way, the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee wouldn't say anything more. However, he was not the head of the Provincial Procuratorate.
Prosecutor General Qi's approach was very normal. Cheng Rongjiang said bitterly. Qi Jiang didn't need to cause any trouble with the Nanzhou Municipal Party Committee because of him. He wouldn't have any resentment because of this. What really made him angry was the mastermind and the person who pushed this matter behind the scenes.
Cheng Rongjiang, I'll fight for you again. See if you can be transferred to the province. Even if you're just sitting on the bench, it's still better than being 'discharged due to illness'. Lay dormant in the province for a period of time. Who knows, there might be a chance for you to make a comeback in the future. Ceng Shiyuan said to Cheng Rongjiang. He also hoped to fight for the last chance for Cheng Rongjiang.
Old leader, I'm afraid that I won't even have the chance to sit on the bench this time. Cheng Rongjiang smiled bitterly.
Let's do our best and leave it to fate. We still have to try. Ceng Shiyuan sighed.
Old leader, thank you very much. Cheng Rongjiang said gratefully, but he didn't have much hope in his heart.
When Cheng Rongjiang was talking to Ceng Shiyuan, Chen Xing was also calling Cheng Rongjiang's phone. Hearing that Cheng Rongjiang's phone was busy, Chen Xing didn't hurry to call him. Presumably, many people were calling Cheng Rongjiang at this time.
Chen Xing was also the first person to know the result of the meeting of the Municipal Party Committee. Before the meeting ended, he already knew the result. During the meeting, Shao Huadong secretly sent him a message with his phone, telling him the result. Chen Xing was also shocked and angry. This time, it turned out that the local faction and Ge Jian-ming's faction were working together to deal with Cheng Rongjiang. Even Chen Xing, who heard the news from Shao Huadong last night, didn't expect such a result. Chen Xing didn't expect the person behind the scenes to be so powerful.
After the meeting, Shao Huadong also called Chen Xing. The two exchanged opinions about today's situation. In the end, they reached an agreement that Ge Jian-ming's faction and the local faction shouldn't be working together intentionally. Instead, Ge Jian-ming took advantage of the situation to push this matter forward. Their purpose was simply to take down Cheng Rongjiang. As for the local faction represented by Shen Lingyue and Yang Pingping, Chen Xing and Shao Huadong both believed that it was the Chen family behind Ceng Gaoqiang who was targeting Cheng Rongjiang.
Chen Tongjin was the former Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and he was also the former flag bearer of the local faction. His words still had a certain influence on Shen Lingyue and Yang Pingping. This time, Shen Lingyue and Yang Pingping made things difficult for Cheng Rongjiang, which should be Chen Tongjin's idea. Chen Tongjin's purpose was to make Cheng Rongjiang unable to continue to be the Procurator-General. In this way, Cheng Rongjiang could no longer investigate Deng Jinchun's case. In this way, Ceng Gaoqiang could be protected. After Ge Jian-ming noticed that someone was targeting Cheng Rongjiang, he took advantage of the situation to push this matter.
Chen Xing thought that Ge Jian-ming's motive for targeting Cheng Rongjiang was very simple. It was only because Cheng Rongjiang had sided with him that Ge Jian-ming couldn't allow Cheng Rongjiang to continue to be the Procurator-General. Taking advantage of the situation to take down Cheng Rongjiang was just a way for Ge Jian-ming to cut off Cheng Rongjiang's wings.
After Chen Xing and Shao Huadong expressed their own opinions, they came to this conclusion. In fact, there was not much difference from their analysis. The cooperation between the local faction and Ge Jian-ming's people was not planned in advance. Instead, one party was leading this matter, while the other party was adding fuel to the fire and pushing the development of the situation.
After talking with Shao Huadong on the phone, Chen Xing dialed Cheng Rongjiang's number. After such a thing happened, he had to comfort Cheng Rongjiang's feelings. Moreover, Chen Xing didn't give up completely. This time, Cheng Rongjiang was set up because of him. Cheng Rongjiang was the sacrifice of his fight with others. It was impossible for Chen Xing to ignore Cheng Rongjiang this time. He had to fight for a place for Cheng Rongjiang. The city couldn't accommodate Cheng Rongjiang at the moment, but he could try to think of other places for Cheng Rongjiang. He couldn't let Cheng Rongjiang retire because of his illness.
Chen Xing didn't hurry to call Cheng Rongjiang. He frowned. What he was most worried about had happened. He thought that since he came out this time, he had arranged everything properly. After thinking about it, there shouldn't be anything to worry about. There shouldn't be anyone who would make trouble when he was away. However, he didn't expect that someone would start to make trouble for his people as soon as he left. Cheng Rongjiang, the chief prosecutor who had just turned to his side, became the sacrificial target. As for Xu Jingsen, there was no doubt that he was in trouble because of Deng Jinchun's case. Compared to Cheng Rongjiang, Xu Jingsen was just a pawn that was taken down by the other party first.
Mayor Chen, what's wrong? Is there something on your mind? You Quan stood beside Chen Xing. Today, Chen Xing still came to the exhibition center. Yesterday, there were a lot of companies attending the investment promotion conference, and today's number was no less than yesterday. Chen Xing just arrived in the morning. Originally, he was in a good mood, but after receiving Shao Huadong's text message, his mood became bad. What Shao Huadong mentioned last night had become a reality. Moreover, it was the local party and Ge Jian-Ming who were making trouble. This was even worse than what Chen Xing had imagined.
It's nothing, President You. Yesterday afternoon, there were already a few companies that showed great interest in our city's investment projects. They are very willing to invest. This is a good thing. I hope there will be more good news in the next few days. Chen Xing smiled.
"Yes, Mayor Chen, you will definitely achieve impressive results this time." You Quan smiled and complimented.
Listening to You Quan's words, Chen Xing could only smile and shake his head. This kind of words should not be taken seriously. Just because he was the mayor, people would not rush to invest in Nanzhou. If so, the leaders of the Provincial Party Committee would be directly dispatched to attract investment.
The smile on his face was only fleeting. Soon, Chen Xing became worried again. The things in the city affected his heart, making Chen Xing feel like a huge stone was pressing on his heart.
Mayor Chen, did you call me just now? Cheng Rong Jiang called back.
Yes, I called you just now. You are on the phone. Chen Xing nodded and walked to the side to answer the phone. Rong Jiang, I already know the opinion of the Municipal Party Committee. Don't be discouraged. Until the last moment, no one will have the last laugh.
Mayor Chen, it doesn't matter to me. But this time, I can't complete the task you asked me to do, and I really feel guilty. Cheng Rong Jiang said apologetically. He wanted to solve Deng Jinchun's case beautifully. He had even issued a military order, but in the end, he still couldn't complete the task. Even he and his trusted subordinate, Xu Jingsen, were implicated.
Rong Jiang, why are you still saying this at this time? This time, the situation is special. Deng Jinchun's case is no longer just his case. I believe you should also see that the situation in the city is very complicated. The result of this time is also related to me, so I won't sit back and do nothing. Someone deliberately wants you to be dismissed, so we can't let them get what they want. Chen Xing's expression was cold. Those people were at most complacent for a moment. The one who laughs in the end is the real winner.
Mayor Chen, just now, my old leader in the Provincial Procuratorate called me. He said that the Procurator Qi of the Provincial Procuratorate has decided to respect the opinion of the Municipal Party Committee. The Municipal Party Committee's decision will not be opposed anymore. I think I can only accept the result of retirement. Cheng Rong Jiang smiled helplessly. Cheng Rongjiang smiled helplessly. He didn't dare to place too much hope on Chen Xing's words. The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. Cheng Rongjiang let out a sigh and was a little disheartened. He had just come back from the gates of hell, and he didn't expect to encounter such a thing so soon. "That's good too. I'm feeling mentally and physically exhausted now. It's not a bad thing to have a good rest and recuperate my body. Anyway, I'm going to retire sooner or later.
Rong Jiang, it's not like you to lose your fighting spirit so quickly. Chen Xing knitted his brows. The enemy wasn't scary, what was scary was that one's willpower was broken. Rong Jiang, I'm really worried about you. I don't want to see you being dispirited. Only in that way, the mastermind behind the scenes would be satisfied. Chen Xing frowned.
Mayor Chen, it's hard for me not to be disheartened in my current situation. Cheng Rong Jiang couldn't hide his disappointment.
Rong Jiang, don't say such disheartened words. I heard from Lu Ming that you were discharged from the hospital yesterday afternoon. You are still recovering. How can you leave the hospital without permission? Go back to the hospital and take good care of your body first. As for the other things, we will think of another way. Chen Xing said to Cheng Rong Jiang. He could only comfort Cheng Rong Jiang in this way. At this moment, he was also having a headache over Cheng Rong Jiang's matter. Cheng Rong Jiang no longer had a foothold in the city. Where could he send him?
Now, I have no choice but to take good care of my body. I will go back to the hospital today. I have to take good care of my body so that I can live longer in the future. Maybe when others step into the coffin, I, an old man, will still be alive. At that time, I will be the one laughing at the end. Cheng Rong Jiang laughed self-mockingly.
Well, go back to the hospital first. Other things can't be rushed. Chen Xing nodded. He couldn't promise Cheng Rong Jiang anything now, but he would definitely do something for Cheng Rong Jiang. He would try his best to help Cheng Rong Jiang leave the Nanzhou Province.
