A quarter of an hour later, Sun Yaozu walked over with a cold face. At this time, Li Rui was already sitting in his seat in the outer room.
Seeing him enter the room, Li Rui slowly got up to greet him. He looked at him sympathetically and pitifully.
Sun Yaozu just nodded at him as a greeting, then went to open the door to Song Chaoyang's room.
Sun Yaozu had been in a bad mood for the past few days. In just a few days, it felt like a few years had passed. He felt like he had aged a few years. He was very worried. Although he knew that he could suppress the case of his sons forcing Xiao Wenna to her death, he was still inexplicably worried. This was a kind of worry that came from a guilty conscience. Even if no one was targeting him and his sons, he was still so scared that he couldn't eat well or sleep well. His days were very sullen.
He deeply understood in his heart that the truth of this case could not be revealed. Once it was revealed, his son would undoubtedly be imprisoned, and his father would not have a good ending. Losing his official position was a small matter, but he was afraid that he would violate the law and be sentenced to prison. That would be a disgrace in front of his fellow Qingyang villagers. But what could he do? He had given birth to such an evil creature. Could he really not care about him and let him be imprisoned at such a young age and have his life bleak?
Alas, it was hard to be a grandson these days, but it was even harder to be a father!
Song Chaoyang was already waiting for him on the sofa. When he pushed the door open, he hurriedly asked him to sit down. Sun Yaozu was a little surprised. What was wrong with the secretary today? Why was he waiting for him on the sofa? Did he have something to talk about?
After the two of them sat down, Song Chaoyang said with a bitter smile, "Comrade Yaozu, the situation is urgent. If there's anything I want to say, I'll say it directly. It may not be pleasant to hear, so … please bear with it. " Sun Yaozu heard him use the word "urgent", as if it was the right word for his current situation. He immediately became absent-minded and asked, "What's the urgent situation?" Song Chaoyang said, "We'll talk about this later. Let's talk about the Shengjing Hotel jumping case first." Sun Yaozu's heart trembled when he heard this. He asked subconsciously, "What do you mean? Why are you talking to me about the jumping case? What does that have to do with me? " When Song Chaoyang saw that Li Rui's reaction was so fierce, like a porcupine suddenly bursting out all the spikes on its body in the face of its natural enemy, he was even more certain that what Li Rui said was true. His face darkened as he said, "Comrade Yaozu, don't you know what your situation is right now?"
Sun Yaozu was slightly shocked when he saw his face suddenly turn serious. Hearing his ambiguous words, he secretly beat a small drum in his heart and said with an unfriendly face, "What's the situation with me? Why didn't I know about it? " Song Chaoyang said patiently, "Mayor, the reason why I invited you here today is to discuss a very important matter with you. This matter is very likely to have a great impact on you. Therefore, I hope that you can be honest with me. Don't hide anything from me, and don't play dumb with me. Otherwise, I really can't be bothered with this matter and let it worsen. When the time comes, hehe, anyway, it's none of my business. " His words were relatively calm, but Sun Yaozu felt that every word was piercing through his heart. He immediately became nervous and said, "Chaoyang, I'll listen, okay? Let me hear the basic situation first. "
Song Chaoyang said, "I don't want to talk about the basic situation, because you and I already know what happened at Shengjing Hotel, the remedial action taken by the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and the series of things that are happening now … I don't need to talk about it, right?" Sun Yaozu's face burned when he heard that. He asked shamelessly, "Then the emergency you mentioned just now is …" Song Chaoyang lowered his voice and said, "Some people are using this incident to achieve their unspeakable political goals, or political conspiracies. This person is like you and me. He already knows the details of this case. When he uses his killer move, I don't need to tell you what the consequences will be. " Sun Yaozu was so scared that a layer of cold sweat appeared on his back. What he was afraid of really happened. Just as he was worrying about this, someone really did it. He hurriedly asked, "Who is it? Who's scheming? "
Song Chaoyang said, "It doesn't matter who's scheming. Comrade Yaozu, the most important thing now is to think of a way to save yourself. I hope to see the stability and unity of our Qingyang government system. I don't want another political earthquake to happen in Qingyang. If it happens again, no one can bear it. " Sun Yaozu's face was ashen. His lips moved, but he couldn't say a word. From his words, he could already imagine the scene of him falling from the mayor's throne in a sorry state. Song Chaoyang sighed and said, "Just now, when I found out about this, I was still saying that you were foolish. But now, it's useless to say that. I hope you can use your brain and see how to avoid this disaster. "Sun Yaozu lost his voice and said," I … What else can I do? Chaoyang, you … you know everything? " Song Chaoyang nodded slowly and said with a worried face, "If only I knew earlier, I would have stopped you …"
Sun Yaozu was very curious and asked, "How did you know?" Song Chaoyang said seriously, "Is this important? Haven't you realized the situation you're in? Don't you know what you should do now? What's the highest priority? " Sun Yaozu was lectured like this, but he didn't lose his temper. His face was embarrassed and angry. He stared and thought for a while and said, "Who wants to harm me? Who … is … "Song Chaoyang waved his hand impatiently and said," If you're like this, no one can save you. " After saying that, he stood up and looked at him condescendingly. He said resentfully, "Old Sun, you should think about what to do!" The last half of his sentence was very high-pitched, showing his impatience and deep expectations for him.
Sun Yaozu lost his soul and sat on the sofa in a daze, not moving at all. At this moment, he didn't have the imposing manner of a mayor.
After a while, he asked in a daze, "What should I do?" Song Chaoyang wanted to let Li Rui do him a favor and said, "If you don't know what to do, ask Xiao Rui. He has an idea, maybe it can help you think. "Sun Yaozu said in disbelief," You mean Li Rui? He … how did he know about this? "Song Chaoyang said," You should be glad that he knows about this, otherwise you wouldn't be able to escape this disaster. I'll tell you the truth, it was Xiao Rui who told me about this. He also wants to save you, but I'm the one who's telling you. "Sun Yaozu felt more and more incredulous and said," He … he wants to save me? "Song Chaoyang said," He's grateful for the care you've given him, so he can't bear to see you get into trouble. " Sun Yaozu blushed with shame when he heard this. When had he ever taken care of Li Rui? This was probably just what the master and servant said. In his panic, he couldn't be bothered to think about it and said, "Okay, okay, then I'll thank him. Quick … let him in."
Song Chaoyang quickly called Li Rui in and said to him, "Tell the mayor about the idea you just came up with."
Without waiting for Li Rui to speak, Sun Yaozu stood up and said, "Xiao Rui, I want to thank you. I didn't expect you to be so affectionate and righteous. I'm ashamed, but I'm also grateful." Li Rui was confused by his praise and hurriedly said, "Mayor, you're too polite. That matter … you already know about it, right?" Sun Yaozu lowered his head dejectedly and sighed, "I was just momentarily blinded!" He then raised his head and said, "Xiao Rui, quick, teach me, what should I do?" Li Rui said, "What I came up with might be a bad idea, but maybe I can throw a brick to attract more jade. It's like this. There were two other people with your son that night. Let one of them stand out and take the blame for the crime that happened in the hotel and the crime of mobilizing the Public Security Bureau. Naturally, your son and you won't have anything to do with it. But this is a bad idea, and there are many loopholes in it. I'm afraid that it might cause more trouble if it's not handled properly. "
Sun Yaozu nodded repeatedly and said, "It's a good idea! Do you have any other good ideas? "Li Rui said," There's another one, which is … to let the three people stand up and confess their sins. As for the Public Security Bureau, they have to change their statement. It can be said that they didn't investigate carefully and hastily issued a conclusion. In the end, they quickly found new clues, so … at least this way, you can be absolved of your sins. " Sun Yaozu's eyes lit up when he heard this, but he couldn't bear it. Speaking of which, he was also about to retire. At the very most, he would have to step down at this time next year. Compared to his son's good years, the former was obviously negligible. As long as his son was fine, why should he be afraid of stepping down? But the problem was that the opponent not only wanted to kill him, but also didn't want to let his son go. He had to think about it carefully and said, "Do you have any ideas to protect my son?"
Li Rui smiled bitterly and said, "Mayor, at this time, you still want to care about your son? Your son has already committed a crime, and this is a fact that can't be changed. The reason why he's fine now is because you are protecting him. But if even you are defeated, how are you going to protect your son? I'll say something you don't want to hear, but you should only care about yourself now. It's already good enough that you can save yourself. "Sun Yaozu stared at him in disbelief and said," The situation is so urgent? " Li Rui whispered, "What if I tell you that Secretary Yu has already prepared the key witnesses to testify? What do you think?"
