Li Ruixin felt guilty and didn't dare to look him in the eye. He lowered his eyelids slightly and apologized, "Secretary, Secretary-General, I'm sorry. I was downstairs calling Qingman and then I walked around for a while …" Du Minsheng said seriously, "Xiao Rui, there's a very urgent and important matter for you to deal with. I hope you can do it quickly and well." Li Rui hurriedly said, "Secretary-General, please tell me." Du Minsheng said, "Just now, we received a call from the Provincial Party Committee. They said that there were some retired cadres in Qingyang City who were pasting posters near the Provincial Party Committee and were arrested by the armed police. They told us to go and get them. Go back to Qingyang City with Lao Zhou immediately. After you arrive in Qingyang City, go with Director Wang Tiehui and call a few staff members. Also, ask Bureau Chief Feng to send a few policemen. You guys will go to the provincial capital together. You must bring those old guys back. "
Song Chaoyang suddenly interrupted coldly, "If the soft approach doesn't work, then they'll use the hard approach. If the tiger doesn't show its might, do they think it's a sick cat? " Li Rui hurriedly asked, "Boss, are those old cadres the ones who pasted posters at the Municipal Party Committee and the Municipal Government?" Song Chaoyang looked at him with bright eyes and said, "You need to investigate this clearly. I only want results. "Li Rui said," Don't worry, I'll definitely complete this matter perfectly. I'll go now. "
Du Minsheng reminded him, "Be careful on the road." Li Rui nodded at him and turned to leave.
Lao Zhou already knew about this and was waiting for Li Rui at the door. After the two met, they immediately went downstairs. When they arrived downstairs, car number one had already started. The two got into the car and the car slowly drove out of the guesthouse and quickly disappeared into the night.
On the way, after Li Rui called Feng Weidong for help, he already hated those old cadres to death. If it weren't for them, he would be enjoying a good time with his precious disciple Jiang Wei. It was because those old bastards had smeared Qingyang City's reputation and put Boss Song Chaoyang in a difficult position. As a result, not only did he lose the chance to spend a good night with his beautiful disciple, but he also had to travel overnight to the provincial capital. It was more than 300 kilometers from Longbei to the provincial capital. It would take nearly four hours to drive there. Although he wasn't driving himself, it wasn't good to sleep while driving in Lao Zhou's way. And don't forget, one trip was four hours, one return trip was also four hours, so this was eight hours. Eight hours of torture and that didn't include the time to bring those old cadres. If they didn't want to come back, he would have to think of a way … It seemed like he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight. He wouldn't even be able to sleep tomorrow morning!
On the way, Lao Zhou laughed and asked, "This is your first time, right?" Li Rui smiled bitterly and nodded, "Brother, I'll have to trouble you. But if you're tired from driving, I can take over for you. I have my driver's license in my bag. "Lao Zhou nodded and said," In the future, there will be a lot of things like this. It's summer now, so it's okay. If it's winter, try it. It's snowing heavily and the roads are covered with ice. People will freeze to death if they come out. They really don't want to come out of bed. That year, I was a deputy secretary's chauffeur. I was also doing research in the suburbs. Something big happened in the city and we had to rush back overnight. It was three to nine days and the temperature at night was negative 20 degrees. The car suddenly couldn't start … "
When the car arrived at Qingyang City, Director Wang Tiehui and the police from the political department of the Municipal Public Security Bureau were already waiting for them. Li Rui got out of the car and greeted Wang Tiehui and the deputy director of the political department, Liu Guang. He briefly explained the situation and then got into the car. The three cars, led by the Municipal Party Committee's car number one, sped towards the provincial capital.
In order to protect himself, Secretary General Du Minsheng who was in Longbei was anxiously waiting. Li Rui called him to report the latest developments. Du Minsheng reminded him, "Although Song Shuji said that if the soft approach doesn't work, then use the hard approach, but as a member of the Provincial Party Committee, you still have to be careful of your influence. Don't make things too tense." Li Rui said, "Don't worry, Secretary General. I know what I'm doing."
When the car arrived at the Provincial Party Committee's courtyard, it was already one o 'clock in the evening.
Li Rui was so sleepy that his eyelids were fighting. He could only force himself to stay awake. After getting out of the car, he poured out the mineral water from the bottle and washed his face. Only then did he feel more refreshed. He discussed it with Wang Tiehui and Liu Guang.
Among the three of them, Wang Tiehui's position was obviously higher. He was the director of the government's Communications Department and a divisional leader. He was far above Li Rui and Liu Guang. The three of them seemed to want to follow his lead.
But Wang Tiehui insisted that Li Rui was representing Secretary Song Chaoyang and was entrusted by the Secretary General. Naturally, he would be in charge of this trip. Wang Tiehui and Liu Guang just had to listen to his orders.
Li Rui knew that he was trying to shirk responsibility. If this matter was handled well, it wouldn't be much of a merit to bring the old cadres back to Qingyang. But if it wasn't handled well and they didn't bring the old cadres back, it would cause a lot of trouble. They would be laughed at by the Provincial Party Committee or even criticized by the leaders of the Provincial Party Committee. That would be a huge matter. Only an idiot would willingly take responsibility for something like this. She looked at him deeply and thought to herself, Wang Tiehui, how dare you try to play tricks on me at this critical juncture. I can't do anything to you, but don't forget that you still have to deal with Secretary Song when we get back. If I say a few nasty words to him, don't even think about getting away with it. She said lightly, "Alright, then I won't be polite. Let me handle this matter."
Wang Tiehui smiled and said, "That's for the best." Liu Guang nodded and said, "Director Li, just give the order. We'll be ready to arrest them at any time."
Li Rui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He thought to himself, "Boss, luckily you're the Deputy Director of the Political Department. Why do you always want to make a move? If he really made a move, he would only be laughed at by the Provincial Party Committee. "He thought for a while and said," Let's go and meet the leader in charge of this matter first. We'll see how to deal with it. " Wang Tiehui yawned and said, "Yes, we'll do as you say, Director Li. There won't be any objections." Li Rui knew that this was equivalent to him quitting, but he didn't have the power to coerce him. He could only endure it.
The three of them first asked the others to wait in the car. Then, Li Rui walked in front while Wang Tiehui and Liu Guang walked side by side. They formed a small team and walked to the entrance of the Provincial Party Committee's compound. Li Rui explained the situation to the armed police on duty and showed him his work ID. After the armed police confirmed his identity, he went to the sentry booth to make a call. After a while, he came back and said, "Wait here!" After that, he stopped talking to the three of them.
Wang Tiehui grumbled softly. "What's so great about him? He's just a lousy armed police. He's just a watchdog of the Provincial Party Committee's compound. Does he really think he's a leader?" Li Rui smiled and did not say anything.
After a few minutes, a middle-aged man wearing glasses walked out of the courtyard. He looked gentle and refined. When he arrived at the armed police, he saw Li Rui and the other two. But he pretended not to see them and asked loudly, "Where is Qingyang?"
Li Rui was stunned when he heard what Qingyang said. He had come to the Provincial Capital to pick up the old staff. Since when was there an imposter? Could it be that this imposter had come to the Provincial Party Committee to cause trouble again? He looked at Wang Tiehui, but Wang Tiehui shook his head and signaled him not to admit it.
The man called out twice, but no one answered.
The armed police who received Li Rui and the other two turned his head and pointed at Li Rui and the other two. He said emotionlessly, "I'm calling you. Why don't you answer?" Li Rui said in surprise, "We're here to pick up the old cadres, not to pick up the imitators."
The man with glasses sneered. "Ridiculous! What's the point of putting up posters? Isn't it an imposter? "Li Rui said blankly," Oh, I thought there was another imposter from Qingyang. "The man sneered." Another imposter? Do you think that Qingyang has not caused enough trouble for the Provincial Party Committee? " Although Li Rui was not satisfied with his arrogant attitude, he could only go up and smile. "Hello, comrade. My name is Li Rui. I come from the General Office of the Qingyang Municipal Party Committee. I'm here to pick up the old staff from Song Shuji and Secretary General Du. As for the bad influence they have caused to the Provincial Party Committee, I represent … "The man waved his hand and said impatiently," Okay, okay, okay. Don't talk nonsense. Hurry up and come in. Seriously, it's too much to cause trouble for the province all day long. Don't you know how to maintain peace and unity? Don't you know how to look at the big picture … "
Li Rui asked Wang and Liu to follow him into the courtyard. While listening to this guy's endless complaints, he was very annoyed, but he didn't dare to argue with him. He could only smile with him, and his heart was very sullen.
Before they arrived at the main building of the Provincial Party Committee, the man took Li Rui and the other two to the right. They arrived at the entrance of a three story building on the east side. When they arrived, he stopped, turned around, and began to lecture Li Rui and the other two. "Do you know that the Provincial Party Committee leaders have to deal with thousands of problems every day? Why do you keep causing trouble for them? Do you know how big the impact will be if the Provincial Party Committee leaders find out about this? What is your Municipal Party Committee Secretary doing? Since you're in charge of protecting a region, then you should sympathize with the people in your region. How can you force a retired old staff to come to the Provincial Party Committee and imitate them? This is how he became the Municipal Party Committee Secretary. He should ask himself if he's worthy of the Provincial Party Committee leaders' trust and expectations … "
