Rebirth of the Rising Sun

"Okay." Facing Xu Chaoqi's pleading eyes, Zheng Zhi finally spoke. "Comrades, now is not the time to pursue responsibility. Let's think about how to deal with the aftermath of Xichuan."

After Zheng Zhi said this, the meeting room fell silent again.

Everyone knows that Xichuan has been messed up by Feng Sizhe. It is difficult for anyone to manage this business now. It is clearly a mess, isn't it? So no one responded to Zheng Zhi's words.

Zheng Zhi looked around and saw that when it came to personal struggles, everyone was so powerful, but when it came to big things, they were all speechless. He couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness. How could the capital province develop with such an internal environment? No wonder the economy of other provinces is getting better and better, but the situation here is really hard to make any progress. It seems that cadres are indeed a big determining factor.

Of course, the current Ducheng Province has been run by the Discipline Department for such a long time, and it is not something that can be changed just by saying so. Coupled with Mr. Fang's influence, this Ducheng Province has indeed become a big problem for the Central Government. Originally, I wanted to rely on Feng Sizhe to change this place, but who knew that this person would only care about Xichuan and cause such a big thing. "Hey!" Zheng Zhi shook his head. Now he had a headache when he thought about the problem of Xichuan.

"Xichuan is a city in Ducheng Province. Don't you have anyone who can solve the problems there?" Zheng Zhi looked at everyone in silence and had to ask again.

"Deputy Director Zheng, it's not that we don't want to solve the problem, but the cadres there were promoted by Comrade Feng Sizhe. If someone else goes there, the people there will be dissatisfied." Ji Quanyong put forward his own requirements and conditions at the right time, that is, it is not impossible to let them handle the affairs of Xichuan, but the prerequisite is that all the cadres arranged by Feng Sizhe must be transferred away. Of course, this is mainly for Zu Jie, who is a member of the Zu family. If you want to move this person's position, it will be difficult to do so without the approval of the upper level.

As soon as Ji Quanyong finished speaking, Zheng Zhi's face changed. Do these people think they are fools? The current mayor of Xichuan City is Zu Jie, the biological son of Minister Zu Youjing. Although he is not afraid of the Zu family in his current position, it is unnecessary to offend them for no reason. The Zu family is also a big family, and its elders are also predecessors before the founding of the country. If they had not died early due to physical reasons, the situation of the Zu family would definitely be much better than it is now.

Facing the Zu family, even Zheng Zhi had no need to offend them for no reason, and now Ji Quanyong actually wanted to use this excuse to stir up a dispute between him and them. It was a pity that these people could come up with this method.

Zheng Zhi snorted in his heart, and his impression of Ji Quanyong and others became worse. But for the sake of the overall situation, he did not say anything. "Well, Xichuan belongs to the capital province. The internal issue of the appointment of cadres in a city should be handled by your provincial party committee. I think it is better for the central government not to interfere in this matter."

It was very simple. Zheng Zhi kicked the ball back. He wanted to tell Ji Quanyong that it was impossible for him to be anyone's gunman.

Feeling that his trick had been seen through, Ji Quanyong showed an embarrassed expression on his face, "Yes, if that's the case, then our provincial party committee will do its best to handle the matter of Xichuan City."

Originally, Ji Quanyong was thinking about whether he could use Zheng Zhi to drive Zu Jie away, but now it seems that there is no chance. In this case, he can only keep Zu Jie in Xichuan, and he can only think about the position of secretary of the municipal party committee.

Ji Quanyong wanted to use Zheng Zhi, but his plan was seen through. The atmosphere in the meeting room suddenly became quiet. After all, everyone present was a smart person and knew some tricks. If they thought about it carefully, they would be able to figure out the problem.

As the conference room quieted down, everyone's expressions became more serious, because no one knew what to say. But at this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the conference room, and then Yang Ding, deputy secretary-general of the Provincial Party Committee Office, walked in.

As soon as he saw Yang Ding coming, Ji Quanyong's face turned ugly. If Zheng Zhi wasn't here, it would be normal for Yang Ding to come in and out of the meeting room at will. At least because of his face, no one dared to say anything. But now that Deputy Manager Zheng Zhi was here, Yang Ding still appeared in the meeting room. That could only mean that something big had happened. Otherwise, Yang Ding would not dare to do that.

"What's going on?" Looking at Yang Ding, Ji Quanyong asked in a low voice.

"Boss, this is the situation." As he spoke, Yang Ding was about to lower his body and whisper something.

"If you have anything to say, just say it. No one here is an outsider." Ji Quanyong angrily scolded Yang Ding, and also expressed his attitude. Zheng Zhi was here now, and he didn't want to cause any misunderstandings because of this action. He failed to plot against others just now, and probably caused dissatisfaction among them.

"Yes." After being scolded by Ji Quanyong, Yang Ding also hurriedly answered respectfully, and then his expression became very serious and said, "Director Ji, the situation is like this. I just received news that the deputy governor Yuan Weimin, who is in charge of the province's social stability, national defense mobilization, air defense and other major tasks, suddenly drove to Xichuan. He was accompanied by Deputy Governor Xie Kaiquan. The two deputy governors brought more than a dozen vehicles and hundreds of people, including some small machinery."

"What?" Ji Quanyong's eyes widened when he heard the news.

In fact, he didn't care about Yuan Weimin supporting Feng Sizhe at this time. Zheng Zhi had come, so it could be said that the central government's attitude towards the Xichuan incident was clear. Anyone who wanted to rely on Feng Sizhe at this time would be going to die. With this excuse, Yuan Weimin could be taken down at the same time. This could also be said to be the best excuse to clear the Feng faction from the provincial government. But why did Xie Kaiquan go to Xichuan at this time? Wasn't he the commander-in-chief of the new airport construction? Why was he going there to join in the fun?

"What's going on? Two deputy provincial governors went to Xichuan? With such a big thing happening, what is your Ducheng Provincial Party Committee doing?" Zheng Zhi angrily shouted after hearing the news.

Just now, Ji Quanyong wanted to plot against him, which made him a little angry. Now he heard that there was a problem in Ducheng Province again. This was a good excuse. He could use this as an excuse to hold Ji Quanyong and others accountable.

As soon as Zheng Zhi opened his mouth, Ji Quanyong felt something was wrong, and he immediately asked Yang Ding, "When did it happen?"

"That's when you went to the airport. I guess they should have arrived in Xichuan now." Yang Ding saw anger in his boss's eyes, so he was very cautious when answering the question.

"We've already arrived in Xichuan, so why did you report it just now?" Ji Quanyong scolded Yang Ding.

"Because everyone who knew about this matter was taken away, it was not until someone went to the two vice governors to do something that they found out." Yang Ding answered with some grievance. It can be seen that the two vice governors had obviously made full considerations. Taking advantage of the fact that all the provincial leaders went to the airport, they just took the time to leave the capital province.

"Asshole." When Ji Quanyong heard that the two vice governors were deliberately hiding something from him, he felt powerless. Before Feng Sizhe came to the capital province, who dared to make a decision without his approval? But now, even his mother-in-law's godson was going to disobey him. How could he not be angry? In this anger, he angrily called out the word "asshole".

After saying these two words, Ji Quanyong just remembered that Vice President Zheng was right beside him. He turned his eyes and looked at the executive vice governor Zheng Defu who was sitting in the conference room. "Vice Governor Zheng, what's going on in your provincial government? Didn't the two vice governors ask for leave when they left?"

Obviously, Ji Quanyong wanted to shift the blame for Yuan Weimin and Xie Kaiquan leaving without permission to Zheng Defu.

After hearing Yang Ding's report just now, Zheng Defu felt something was wrong, but then he thought again, now in the provincial government, although he holds the position of executive vice governor, the work there is actually handled by the standing committee member and vice governor Zou Anlin, so he thought, even if someone wanted to push the responsibility onto himself, it would not work.

But who would have thought that Ji Quanyong was so shameless that he did not even mention who was in charge of the daily work of the provincial government, but instead started to hold himself accountable.

It was obvious that he was going to be used as a scapegoat. How could Zheng Defu just sit there and wait for death? He quickly stood up and explained, "Director Ji, I am not responsible for the work of the provincial government now."

"It's not your responsibility. You are the executive vice governor. If not you, who will be responsible? Humph, I'll keep this in mind for now and we'll settle the score later." Ji Quanyong glared at Zheng Defu fiercely. This man dared to contradict him in front of so many people. He would have to teach him a lesson later.

After being stared at by Ji Quanyong, Zheng Defu stopped talking. He knew very well that even if he explained the problem clearly now, he had offended Ji Quanyong, and he would definitely suffer in the future. Forget it, he might as well admit it first. He was wronged anyway. No matter how strict Ji Quanyong was on the surface, he would still compensate him in the future.

Zheng Defu stopped talking, which made Ji Quanyong feel better. He sighed that this man knew how to behave in the current situation.

How could Zheng Zhi, who was sitting aside and attending the meeting, not see that there was something fishy going on? However, his current attention was not on who would preside over the daily work of the Capital Provincial Government. What he cared about now was the task assigned to him by the central government, which was to reach an agreement with the Capital Provincial Party Committee first, and then bring Feng Sizhe back to Kyoto as soon as possible.
