Rebirth of Corrupt Officials - Chapter 63
Jiang Xiaochuan held his eyebrows and thought for a long time, but still didn’t know what to do next.
Did he want to continue fighting those people?
The battles in official circles were endless.
He picked up the phone again. Others thought he was knocked down by that ridiculous brick, but he still had to stand up again when others relaxed and did everything he could.
Wu Ju had official duties in the government, and he wanted to call Wei Lai now.
Wei Lai needed to do some important things.
“Mayor Jiang, are you okay?” Wei Lai asked directly about his physical condition as soon as he answered the phone.
Jiang Xiaochuan shook his head, but suddenly thought that Wei Lai wouldn’t be able to see it. He replied: “It’s okay. I have a very important thing for you to do now. Listen, find someone you trust to check it out. I want to know some inside information about Qingtuan and Hong family from Lu Xiu. Things like Xue Yan’s incident must be related to these people. I knew a lot of inside information must be with Lu Xiu. You slowly tricked him. Tell him, if he cooperates well, there is something I can do for him.”
Lu Xiu was only being questioned about his lifestyle with a mistress. Jiang Xiaochuan knew that Lu Xiu had been exposed to things related to the Rong family when he was at the bottom. During Uncle Qiu’s case, this man was hesitant and slow. He obviously knew a lot of things that Jiang Xiaochuan didn’t know. Now that Lu Xiu was in a difficult situation, Jiang Xiaochuan, the leader of a government, extended an olive branch to him at this time. If he didn’t grasp it then his brain must be sick.
Jiang Xiaochuan had a lot of power in Chengzhou now, helping Lu Xiu was probably a piece of cake.
Wei Lai didn’t expect Jiang Xiaochuan to use Lu Xiu as a breakthrough, but after careful consideration, he found that this was indeed the best candidate.
Lu Xiu knew a lot. Although he might not be directly linked to Xue Yan, he could give some clues.
He hung up the phone and hurriedly went to do something.
.
Jiang Xiaochuan stood up as soon as he lifted the quilt. He stood in front of the window and found that the scenery in front of him was familiar. He thought in a daze that this was where Lian Cheng had stayed. After the explosion when escorting Qian Qiming back, Lian Cheng also stayed here.
However, things changed and people changed. Summer was almost over now.
At first, Lian Cheng and his people returned without success; now, Lian Cheng and his people were back again – no one could say what his arrival would bring to Chengzhou this time.
The green trees outside the window had shown a light-yellow color, which was not obvious yet, and some branches and leaves were a little dry. On the avenue outside the hospital, there were rows of landscape trees. In the distance, there was a cross on the top of the Western Church, with several animals standing on it. The white dove soon flew into the distance again.
When the sun shone down, the entire church building looked somewhat holy.
Unfortunately, all this had nothing to do with Yue Qingci.
“If you have any troubles, you might as well confess to me.” The priest in red stood beside the stone pillar wrapped with ivy and smiled at Yue Qingci.
Yue Qingci’s expression was indifferent: “I once liked a person very much, but because of this person’s father, I did something wrong. However, in order to cover up for his father, I did not tell him the truth and did not want to destroy his father’s status in his mind. Later, I was plotted and ended up in the same fate as him, but his father was dead and the person I liked asked me if I had feelings for him. All I could say was – I didn’t love him, I was only using him. Father, do you think this is right or wrong?”
“Your question is too profound. Please forgive me for not understanding.”
Yue Qingci did not expect the priest to understand.
Jiang Encheng and Qiu Yu used to be husband and wife, and they reunited. Qiu Yu wanted to fulfill her obligations as a mother, but she asked Hua Feng of the Huaxin Group to directly give away 30 million. Jiang Encheng said that Jiang Xiaochuan should accept the money first. Then he would return it to Hua Feng again and find a way to prevent Qiu Yu from knowing that Jiang Xiaochuan did not accept the money.
At that time, Yue Qingci only felt that it was inappropriate, but that was Jiang Xiaochuan’s father after all. He made an excuse to let Jiang Xiaochuan accept the money, but he immediately transferred the money to a secret account. Yue Qingci was afraid something would happen because of the money; at that time the Huaxin Group was bidding. Jiang Xiaochuan had already given the bid to Huaxin Group before getting the money. Therefore, even if Huaxin Group did not bribe, there would be no problems.
But who knew that the investigation report of the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection would come down next. When Jiang Xiaochuan was arrested, Jiang Encheng had already collapsed, fell into a deep coma, and finally passed away not long after. However, the trouble was not solved yet, and the money was unknown. Why did it return to the accounts of both parties? The bank records showed that the money had never been transferred out. The banking system was nationwide. Who could change it? At that time, Yue Qingci knew that everything was over.
Once Jiang Encheng left, no one could tell the truth. Hua Feng and Qiu Yu insisted that the person they bribed was Jiang Xiaochuan, but they were unwilling to say that it was a favor, perhaps because someone had greater control of them. They did not dare to say anything, right?
This matter itself was full of doubts, which was not enough for Jiang Xiaochuan to be sentenced to death. What was more serious was his previous power transactions and job-related crimes in the officialdom. Corruption and bribing in the officialdom were already tacitly accepted, and because of the reform and reorganization of state-owned enterprises, Jiang Xiaochuan had made too many enemies, and no matter how good his political performance was, he couldn’t resist the conspiracy of others.
.
Yue Qingci laughed, looked at the white dove flying over the cross, turned around and left.
The priest called him from behind: “The service is about to begin, won’t you stay?”
“I am a soldier.” Yue Qingci replied with a seemingly incomprehensible word.
However, the priest suddenly understood that Chinese soldiers were completely unrelated to religious beliefs.
So today, did he accept a confess of an unbeliever?
The priest didn’t know.
But Yue Qingci knew very well that it was not a confession, because the doubts in his heart were still struggling and had not diminished in the slightest.
Note:
So… it was Jiang Xiaochuan’s parents. Interesting
