Rebirth of Corrupt Officials - Chapter 63
“As a mayor, when you went to deal with the laid-off employees of Rongyuan Heavy Industry, you didn’t bring any bodyguards, only a driver and a secretary. This was your own negligence, and you still made into the news. Mayor Jiang, you are really a good thing.”
He had never heard such a harsh tone from Lian Cheng. Jiang Xiaochuan was lying on the hospital bed and felt his head was heavy. He subconsciously put the phone away and prepared to quickly change the subject: “I heard that the central government was going to welcome the inspection team.”
It was customary. A batch would come down every time. This time Lian Cheng was in charge of Shudu, not Chengzhou.
However, Chengzhou was the provincial capital of Shudu, so coming to Shudu was no different from coming to Chengzhou. In fact, the focus was still on Chengzhou. Jiang Xiaochuan naturally knew that Chengzhou was the hardest hit area for corruption and official crimes, and even he was involved in it.
“I’m going to get on the plane now. I’ll be able to arrive in Chengzhou in the afternoon. I believe – this time it won’t end so easily. These things in Chengzhou must be settled,” Lian Cheng said with a hint of emotion in his tone. The incomprehensible complexity, thinking about Chengzhou’s mess, he was barely getting through, like the three years of patchwork, slowly dragging on, but the longer it dragged on, the worse it got. After the Central Commission for Disciplinary Inspection cleaned up internally, power stratification emerged. Now, the real power, Zhang Qing, was ready to resolve the matter in Chengzhou as soon as possible, so Lian Cheng, who came down this time, had great power.
The inspection team was a good way for the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection to inspect officials in various places. The national inspection team inspected relevant party and government organizations across the country, from schools, state-owned enterprises, governments to party organizations at all levels. After the inspection was completed every year, a large number of people appeared. The corrupt officials who were dismissed and those who abused their positions were inspected this time. He wondered what they would find in Chengzhou.
Jiang Xiaochuan was about to say something, but Lian Cheng’s voice sounded in his ears again: “Mayor Jiang, the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection below received many reports about you.”
There was even evidence for many of them. As the person in charge of Jiang Xiaochuan, even Lian Cheng was in difficult place. There were some things where Jiang Xiaochuan was allowed to step on the line. However, according to the situation in the report letter that had been verified, some of the things Jiang Xiaochuan did were no longer as simple as stepping on the line.
Even Zhang Qing was in a dilemma when he saw the verified content. On the one hand, Jiang Xiaochuan was one of their hidden chessmen buried in Chengzhou, and they could allow him to do something a little risky. But on the other hand, if Jiang Xiaochuan chose to follow this path, he would definitely be stained. Even if something went wrong with Jiang Xiaochuan in the end, their Central Commission for Discipline Inspection should be responsible.
Report letter…
Jiang Xiaochuan was silent for a while, touched the gauze wrapped around his head, and smiled: “Those things must have happened.”
Jiang Xiaochuan did not deny it, and Lian Cheng only felt his heart sinking. He did not deny it, although he used the word ‘must have’ but what was the difference between this and admission?
He wanted to scold him on the spot, but he was about to board the plane, and he was accompanied by many members of the inspection team not far away, so he had to suppress it. That feeling made Lian Cheng feel like his whole chest was going to explode. He hung up the phone silently and asked the people around him to leave together. Just wait until they arrived in Chengzhou. Many things couldn’t be explained clearly here.
.
Jiang Xiaochuan only heard the beep sound of the phone being hung up. He was stunned for a moment. He put away his phone, and then the doctor knocked on the door and came in.
He was now in the same hospital as Xue Yan, but they were far apart.
Things were pretty much as he imagined. The incident of him being hit with a brick really made the front page. This was originally a very embarrassing thing, but because Jiang Xiaochuan was the mayor and a victim, the public opinion trend was changing. It was one-sided, but the security guards from Rongyuan Heavy Industry seemed to have been fired by Dai Xu for doing something wrong.
Jiang Xiaochuan was thinking about the future, but as soon as he looked up, he saw an unexpected person: “Qiao Yusheng?”
“I didn’t expect Mayor Jiang to still remember me. This Qiao is deeply honored.” Qiao Yusheng held the medical record when he came in, he looked very handsome in a white coat.
Qiao Yusheng stated that he was a doctor at Rong’s Clinic. Why did he appear in the provincial hospital now? Jiang Xiaochuan suddenly frowned: “Isn’t Dr. Qiao working for Rong Shaobai? Why did he come to the Provincial Hospital in the blink of an eye?”
“I’ve been there enough. After the president was cleared, there weren’t so many wounded people to be treated by me, so I came to the Provincial Hospital.” After all, it turned out that Qiao Yusheng was the one who was poached by Rong Shaobai, and it was not difficult to come back now, not to mention that he came back from overseas studies and was indeed a very good doctor.
This Qiao Yusheng seemed to be very interested in treating diseases and saving people.
Jiang Xiaochuan couldn’t help but smile: “Speaking of which, this is the third time I’ve seen you.”
“Okay, okay, every time I see Mayor Jiang, there are always a few people injured. The first time you were unconscious, the second time was Xue Yan, who is still lying in the intensive care unit, and now it is you, Mayor Jiang, who had his head smashed by a brick. I, the angel in white who treats illnesses and saves people, are really busy.” Qiao Yusheng sighed falsely, then removed Jiang Xiaochuan’s gauze and changed the cloth, a nurse came to help from behind.
After finishing his work, Qiao Yusheng wrote two words on the medical record and said while writing: “This time the injury is not serious, but there was a lot of bleeding, it looked scary, luckily there was no concussion. It will be completely fine in half a month. If Mayor Jiang is busy with work and wants to be discharged from the hospital early, it will also take about a week. But apart from the injury on your head, I must remind you – your mental situation is extremely bad.”
In the past, when Qiao Yusheng first saw Jiang Xiaochuan, the man was fainted for no reason due to mental exhaustion. It was Qiao Yusheng who told Rong Shaobai at that time, and now he raised this issue with Jiang Xiaochuan.
Jiang Xiaochuan was speechless for a moment.
Extremely bad mental condition?
Which of the things he encountered recently did not require him to do his best to calculate and plan?
Furthermore, he endured double suffering.
He was a dark chess. On the one hand, he longed for white justice, but because he was a dark chess, he had to dye himself black, but his heart was still white. Outside his body was black, but his heart was white. The contrast was strong, but the darkness continued to deepen. Jiang Xiaochuan became more and more numb to this black intrusion. Just like in the previous life, he was constantly infiltrated by this dirty officialdom, and then became more and more numb. In the end, he no longer felt anything about his bribery and power-for-money transactions. Everyone was like this just like a habit, Jiang Xiaochuan was now close to this state.
So, he was exhausted mentally and physically.
Lian Cheng had already brought his problems to the table. He believed that this time when the inspection team came down, many things would not be solved simply. He, the mayor, might also be the one who was defeated.
Maybe in this life, he wouldn’t be able to reach a high position like the provincial governor.
Jiang Xiaochuan smiled: “Doctor Qiao is very upfront.”
Qiao Yusheng shrugged and wrote down the last stroke, “Then just pretend I didn’t say anything.”
He turned around and walked out, the corner of his white coat lifted up, quite chic.
Qiao Yusheng was also a character.
