Chapter 193 Gao Xiaofeng
Chapter 193 Gao Xiaofeng
Early in the morning, a flight that took off from Beijing landed in Handong.
Yi Xuexi stepped out of the cabin and, facing the biting cold wind, pulled his collar tighter.
He didn't want to come back, but he had no other choice.
Sha Ruijin returned to his post, and the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection closed the case.
All the problems that Sha Ruijin had reported to him with a do-or-die attitude had become empty talk and evidence of his betrayal of his own people.
The Central Commission for Discipline Inspection naturally wouldn't keep this person in Beijing, but instead swiftly and decisively arranged for him to return to Handong.
Looking at the empty tarmac, Yi Xuexi felt a sense of emptiness in his heart.
This time when I come back, I'm afraid I'll really be in deep trouble.
Yi Xuexi sighed, got into the car that was picking him up, and headed towards downtown Beijing.
At the same time, inside the compound of the Hantong Provincial Party Committee.
Sha Ruijin had been jogging with Tian Guofu for half an hour, but he was still not tired.
As the two ran, Tian Guofu reported the latest news.
Yi Xuexi is back; he landed early this morning.
Upon hearing this news, a barely perceptible hint of resentment flashed in Sha Ruijin's eyes.
On the surface, it remained as calm as still water:
"You're back? That's great."
Tian Guofu thought that Sha Ruijin had not understood his meaning, and emphasized again:
"Secretary Sha, I mean... how should we handle Yi Xuexi?"
Sha Ruijin did not answer. He recalled the teachings that Old Master Ni had given him during his suspension.
He knows people well and is responsible for his duties, and he is as open-minded as a grain of salt.
Regardless of Yi Xuexi's actions, his truthful reporting of the situation cannot be considered wrong.
If you really want to get back at him, you need to come up with other accusations from a different angle.
That would make him appear petty and vindictive as the provincial party secretary.
Secretary Sha concluded that everyone was watching Yi Xuexi's fate and waiting to see the next round of drama.
If I really deal with Easy Learning, I'm afraid I'll end up giving in to their wishes again.
It would be better to use a conciliatory policy and let Yi Xuexi redeem himself through meritorious service, which would actually gain him a loyal follower who would be even more devoted to him.
Keeping a close eye on Li Dakang in Jingzhou City can also provide more intelligence for oneself.
It can also convey a positive image of Sha Ruijin as having a broad mind to the outside world.
Thinking of this, Sha Ruijin gave Tian Guofu an ambiguous answer:
"How about this, at the next Standing Committee meeting, let Yi Xuexi attend as well, and we can announce the disciplinary action against him at the same time."
Tian Guofu was taken aback, then said "okay," but in his heart he felt that Secretary Sha was probably going to take drastic measures.
Sha Ruijin, however, was thinking about how to establish a splendid image for himself at the next meeting.
Inside the compound, Sha Ruijin and Tian Guofu were not the only ones who got up early.
Xia Qing also got up early and sat in the office.
Lei Yu arrived early to report on his work.
Naturally, it was also a matter of Yi Xuexi returning to Handong.
Xia Qing disagreed, while Lei Yu tentatively inquired whether the department should take action against Yi Xuexi in advance to comply with Secretary Sha's intentions.
Xia Qing chuckled, wondering why Lei Yu wanted to deal with Yi Xuexi.
Lei Yu became even more anxious. He believed that Sha Ruijin must harbor resentment towards Yi Xuexi, and that the Organization Department's advance planning could also cater to Sha Ruijin's preferences.
Xia Qing then understood Lei Yu's thoughts, and explained with a smile that Sha Ruijin would not punish Yi Xuexi, but would instead affirm Yi Xuexi's behavior and encourage him to continue his efforts.
Lei Yu was dumbfounded, thinking Xia Qing had gone mad.
Xia Qing, unhurried, urgently needed an answer.
Sha Ruijin has just returned to work and would not make such an obvious retaliatory move.
Easy Learning presents Sha Ruijin with the perfect opportunity to cultivate an image of tolerance and generosity.
At the same time, Sha Ruijin can also use Easy Learning to better keep an eye on Li Dakang.
After a brief explanation, Lei Yu suddenly understood and was filled with admiration for Xia Qing.
Xia Qing concluded.
Yi Xuexi was definitely present at the recent Standing Committee meeting.
We'll see how Sha Ruijin handles it then.
After the thunderstorm passed, Chen Hai also called.
Reporting the situation: We have found the woman who looks similar to Gao Xiaoqin, and we have some basic information about her.
Xia Qing immediately began to take notes.
The woman's name is Gao Xiaofeng, and she is Gao Xiaoqin's younger sister.
She currently lives on Hong Kong Island and has one son.
After reporting these points, Chen Haidao said:
"To be honest, this alone is not enough to determine the situation regarding the photos of Secretary Yuliang and Gao Xiaofeng. As for other information, I cannot find it; it seems to be intentionally blocked."
Xia Qing drew circles on the notebook with the tip of her pen and then made a decision:
"Then let's find out Secretary Yuliang's true attitude towards Gao Xiaofeng before making any further plans. Chen Hai, come to my office and let's talk face to face."
Chen Haidao:
"clear."
Twenty minutes later, Chen Hai arrived at Xia Qing's office.
Xia Qing gave Chen Hai some instructions. Chen Hai was surprised for a moment, but quickly understood what Xia Qing meant and went back to handle it.
Soon, Gao Yuliang received the information from his informant planted within the anti-corruption bureau of the procuratorate.
Chen Hai and his team have recently come across a new lead.
She is a woman named Ko Siu-fung who lives on Hong Kong Island.
Upon hearing this news...
For the first time, a hint of panic appeared on Gao Yuliang's usually calm face.
It felt like the fear and panic of having a secret that had been painstakingly buried uprooted.
He tried his best to calm himself down and tried to get more information from his informants.
The informant replied that the investigation was highly confidential and was being handled by Chen Hai himself. He had already exhausted all his efforts to learn more, and could not find out any further.
Gao Yuliang slammed his fist on the table in frustration.
He remembered the photos Xia Qing had sent him last time.
The intimate photo of him and Gao Xiaofeng was found at Bozhong Real Estate Agency.
Unexpectedly, Xia Qing still instructed Chen Hai to investigate.
Gao Yuliang found it hard to believe.
In a short period of time, Chen Hai was able to dig out Gao Xiaofeng's name and address, including the child, from the information he had kept under wraps.
This made Gao Yuliang feel seriously threatened.
But right now, he can no longer use his power to suppress Chen Hai, nor can he deal with Chen Hai in the same way he dealt with Hou Liangping.
Because Xia Qing would be there to provide Chen Hai with thorough protection from behind.
It's still unknown what level Chen Hai has investigated.
Such a swift and secretive operation made Gao Yuliang dare not be careless.
Even if they can't directly take action against Chen Hai, they should still put pressure on the anti-corruption bureau.
With this in mind, Gao Yuliang quickly issued a document in the name of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission.
Conduct inspections and rectification work on the procuratorial system, especially on ongoing cases. If any problems are found, the case must be stopped immediately until it is rectified and closed.
Gao Yuliang believed that this move would curb the Anti-Corruption Bureau's investigation into Gao Xiaofeng.
But he didn't expect that this was a trap set by Xia Qing.
The purpose was to find out how Gao Yuliang would react after learning about Gao Xiaofeng's situation.
His strong reaction now provides Xia Qing and Chen Hai with the answer.
Gao Xiaofeng is extremely important to Gao Yuliang, so important that he will stop at nothing to achieve her goals!
If Gao Yuliang had thought things through carefully, even if he had just observed the situation, he could have made Xia Qing's move come to nothing.
But he was getting anxious.
If it's about Qi Tongwei, it might cause him to make a mistake.
Then, the matter concerning Gao Xiaofeng would cause Gao Yuliang to lose his mind!
