Rebirth: 1977

Ye Tianshui had never paid attention to the Public Security Bureau's layout and actions, or the handling of cases that occurred there.

He threw himself into his new job with all his heart and soul.

He classified the more than 170 old leaders of the Central Advisory Commission into some who are still working at their posts, some who are working from home due to poor health, and some who are just offering their suggestions and opinions on some important matters.

Ye Tianshui made a roster, registered all of them, classified them, and wrote down the service conditions and requirements that each of them needed to provide.

Secretary-General Qiao Zheng is a deputy ministerial-level leader who is in his early fifties. Through several months of observation, he has a basic understanding of the work capabilities of each member of the newly established secretariat.

He divided the nearly forty secretaries into six groups, four groups with seven people and two groups with six people.

Ye Tianshui served as the leader of one of the seven-member groups, and Jiang Ying was the deputy leader, whose main job was to serve the thirty old leaders.

Among them, ten are still working in leadership positions, ten are working from home, and ten have to send documents to their homes when the Central Advisory Commission holds meetings or group discussions to solicit their opinions and suggestions and have them sign and vote.

Ye Tianshui and his colleagues gradually became familiar with this job and started to get on the right track.

In early May, Ye Tianshui received a draft document, which required them to sort out and issue a notice to convene a meeting of all members of the Central Advisory Commission to study and discuss the matter.

The content of the document made Ye Tianshui feel extremely heavy, as if it was a sword hanging over his head. Finally, the dust settled, his heart trembled slightly, and he naturally accepted it.

The thing he had been avoiding, the crackdown in 1983, finally began.

Su Jianxin called Ye Tianshui several times, wanting to tell him about the solutions the public security system had come up with to the frequent cases happening there.

I also wanted to discuss things with him and hear if he had any good suggestions, but Ye Tianshui always found reasons to refuse me.

Su Jianxin wanted to borrow his people, but Ye Tianshui politely declined.

The fact is that Ye Tianshui has been very busy in the past few months.

Now, the draft proposal on severe crackdown is in his hands, and he and his colleagues need to improve and organize it.

Then, it will be discussed and voted on at the meeting and take effect.

He calmly followed the procedures and did his job with his colleagues, but except Ye Tianshui, everyone else was shocked.

Everyone was discussing it quietly. Jiang Ying, who was so steady, also blocked Ye Tianshui in the office and asked him carefully:

"Team Leader Ye, do you think this draft will be passed?"

Ye Tianshui smiled faintly:

"That's not something we can guess at. When the meeting is over, we will know the result."

"You're not curious at all? Did Director Su tell you about it in advance?"

Jiang Ying felt that Ye Tianshui's attitude was too calm and peaceful, so she carefully sought confirmation.

Ye Tianshui's face became serious:

"Secretary Jiang, please be careful with your words. This is such a serious proposal. Before it is discussed and voted on at the meeting and is drafted into a formal document and issued, it is impossible for Director Su to know about it.

Even if he was qualified to know in advance, do you think he was a cadre without organizational discipline and political awareness? Who would make such a mistake? ! ! ! "

Jiang Ying quickly apologized:

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, that's not what I meant. I just thought you were from the Public Security Bureau and Director Su has always trusted you, so that's why I asked.

Please don't let Director Su know about my nonsense. I made a mistake today. Please keep it a secret for me."

Ye Tianshui nodded gently:

“I won’t mention this to anyone, and you should be careful with your words and actions, because our working environment doesn’t allow for any mistakes on our part.

Also, if others come to you to discuss this matter, you should try to avoid it. "

Ye Tianshui gave a kind reminder.

Jiang Ying thanked him gratefully and left, but Ye Tianshui remained silent for a long time.

When he got home from get off work, Ye Jianfeng called him over and gave him instructions:

"Xiao Shui, you must strictly follow the confidentiality regulations at work. No matter what the decree is, you must not leak any of it before it is formally issued to leaders and departments at all levels.

Even if it’s Su Jianxin, your parents-in-law, and Zi Lan, no matter how close they are to you, you can’t reveal it, understand?”

Ye Jianfeng's tone was serious and sharp.

Before Ye Tianshui started working at the Central Advisory Commission, Ye Jianfeng had never given him such a stern reminder.

Presumably, even he did not understand the true importance of this department at the beginning.

"Don't worry, Dad. I know the seriousness of the matter. I didn't participate in any discussion at work."

He made a gesture to seal his mouth: "I am very tight-lipped. Unless others know about it and tell me, I will be careful about what I say and do and will not casually discuss any decision made by the leadership."

Since Ye Tianshui knew what department he was in, he certainly wouldn't make such a low-level mistake.

“I know you are always steady, but I still have to remind you to do more and talk less. Listen carefully and remember everything.

If you have your own ideas or questions, we can discuss them together."

Ye Jianfeng's tone calmed down.

At the end of June, after several meetings and final vote, the draft was unanimously passed.

The official document was issued in early July, one month earlier than the historical time.

Su Jianxin called Ye Tianshui immediately:

"Xiao Shui, are you free? Come to my office. I have something to discuss with you."

Ye Tianshui sighed lightly. He could guess what Su Jianxin wanted to "discuss" with him. At this point, he could no longer refuse or avoid Su Jianxin.

"Director Su, I will go to your office after get off work."

When he saw Ye Tianshui, Su Jianxin handed him the document:

"Come, sit down and have a cup of tea first. You already knew about this, right?"

Su Jianxin seemed to ask calmly, but his tense face showed that he was not in a good mood.

Ye Tianshui drank a few sips of tea before nodding slowly:

"I participated in the preparation of the draft, Uncle Su, I'm sorry, I can't tell you this in advance, it's work discipline.

Besides, even if you knew it in advance, you couldn’t do anything.”

Ye Tianshui replied calmly.

Su Jianxin was stunned for a moment and sighed:

"Of course I understand the interests involved, and I don't mean to blame you.

Now I just want to ask you, did you guess that the country would take such a harsh approach?

So you reminded me to report the problem to my superiors promptly? "

"You're flattering me. Who would make blind guesses about something like this? I was also shocked when I saw the draft.

I just think that those bastards who are becoming more and more lawless really need to be punished with severe measures."

When Ye Tianshui said this, there was some anger in his heart.

Su Jianxin looked at Ye Tianshui and swallowed the doubts in his heart:

"Can you give me some suggestions now? How should we execute this file later?"
