Sun Liancheng angrily confronts Chen Yanshi

Time flies, and three days have passed.

The Standing Committee held its routine meeting. Gao Yuliang got out of the car, took a water cup, and walked towards the Provincial Party Committee meeting room. At this moment, Li Dakang's voice came from behind, "Governor Gao, wait for me, I have something to report."

Gao Yuliang stopped and turned to look at Li Dakang, who was quickly catching up. He said calmly, "Secretary Dakang, is there something you need?"

"Governor Gao, I have an important lead to report to you."

Standing opposite Gao Yuliang, Li Dakang said solemnly, "According to our internal investigation by the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee, Comrade Wu Xiongfei, the mayor of Jingzhou, bears primary responsibility for the explosion and fire in Zhongfu District of Jingzhou City because he opposed the abolition of Document No. 24 and obstructed the demolition."

After a pause, Li Dakang continued, "Furthermore, I have already spoken with Comrade Wu Xiongfei, and he admitted that it was his dereliction of duty that caused the explosion and fire in Zhongfu District of Jingzhou City..."

Gao Yuliang looked at Li Dakang with some surprise. In his previous life, due to the explosion and fire in Zhongfu District of Jingzhou City, Li Dakang, the secretary of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee, and Wu Xiongfei, the mayor of Jingzhou City, were both dismissed from their posts.

In this life, something happened, and Wu Xiongfei, the mayor of Jingzhou City, actually took the initiative to take responsibility. If that's the case, although Li Dakang, the secretary of the Jingzhou Municipal Party Committee, will be punished, at least he will keep his position.

Looking at Li Dakang's expectant eyes, Gao Yuliang didn't give a clear answer, but said truthfully, "Secretary Dakang, the higher-ups have already sent a special task force to investigate the explosion and fire in Zhongfu District of Jingzhou City. You can talk to them about it when the time comes."

"As for the relevant clues I have investigated, I will tell the task force truthfully, and there will be absolutely no bias."

Li Dakang knew that given his cold relationship with Gao Yuliang, it was already a favor that he didn't kick Gao when he was down; there was absolutely no way he would get Gao to speak up for him. He nodded and said, "Then thank you very much, Governor Gao."

"No need for thanks, it's just upholding the law." Gao Yuliang glanced at the conference room. "Enough said, the meeting is about to start, let's go."

Upon arriving at the conference room, Gao Yuliang frowned and felt a headache coming on when he saw Chen Yanshi, the former deputy chief prosecutor of the Handong Provincial Procuratorate, chatting and laughing with Sha Ruijin.

It should be noted that Sun Liancheng was going to attend the Standing Committee meeting of Handong Province later, and at the hospital, Sun Liancheng specifically requested that Chen Yanshi attend.

Gao Yuliang thought he wouldn't run into him, but he never expected that Chen Yanshi would also come to the Standing Committee meeting of Handong Province. There would definitely be a conflict then, and just thinking about it gave him a headache.

On one side are veteran revolutionaries with a background in the Red Revolution.

On one side are the heroes who braved the flames to save lives.

These two are about to have a conflict, and I don't know how to mediate or whose fault it is.

After Gao Yuliang sat down in his seat and greeted Chen Yanshi, he subtly reminded him, "Old Chen, Sun Liancheng will be here soon. He is a hero who went against the fire to save people. I talked to him a couple of days ago, and he thinks there are problems with how Dafeng Factory was handled."

"Why don't you go to the next room and rest for a while? We can catch up after the Standing Committee meeting."

Sha Ruijin immediately understood Gao Yuliang's meaning and also advised, "Old Chen, the Standing Committee meeting is about to begin. Why don't you listen to Governor Gao and go to the next room to rest?"

"Hey..." Chen Yanshi waved his hand, directly refusing, "Why would I leave? Haven't all the problems at Dafeng Factory been dealt with? Is Sun Liancheng some kind of tiger? Just because he's here doesn't mean I have to leave. I've done nothing wrong, why would I leave?"

Chen Yanshi thoroughly enjoyed this feeling. With Governor Gao Yuliang on his left and Provincial Party Secretary Sha Ruijin on his right, both of them were his people. What did he have to fear in Handong Province?

Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, Gao Yuliang had no choice but to give up. He thought to himself that this old comrade Chen Yanshi was really getting cocky. Didn't he have any idea how many illegal things he had done? And yet he acted uprightly and honestly.

Where is it? Where is it right now?

Just then, Sun Liancheng, the hero who saved people, whom Gao Yuliang had sent a special car to pick up, arrived!

He walked into the conference room and immediately saw Chen Yanshi sitting next to Sha Ruijin. He smiled, a smile that was tinged with cruelty and coldness.

With Sun Liancheng's belated arrival, the Standing Committee meeting of Handong Province officially began.

Gao Yuliang explained, "Today's meeting has only one theme: to commend Comrade Sun Liancheng, the hero who risked his life to save others during the explosion and fire in Zhongfu District, Jingzhou City!"

"I have thoroughly investigated and collected evidence regarding what happened to Comrade Sun Liancheng."

Gao Yuliang glanced at the Standing Committee members present and said firmly, "Comrade Sun Liancheng did not embezzle or accept bribes. In fact, the investigation results show that the organization owes Comrade Sun Liancheng one hundred yuan."

"I'm very puzzled. How could such an honest and dedicated district head have fallen so low as to become an instructor at a youth center? Is it laziness? Inaction?"

As he spoke, Gao Yuliang picked up a report he had brought with him. "I have the economic development curves for each district and county in Jingzhou City. It can be said that Guangming District, where Sun Liancheng is the district head, has the highest GDP in the city. Is this laziness? Is this inaction?"

"If this is lazy governance and inaction, then I want all district and county leaders to be lazy and inactive!"

Everyone fell silent, including Li Dakang, who lowered his head and frowned. Only Sun Liancheng showed no joy at being praised; his eyes were filled with unwavering devotion to Chen Yanshi.

The next second, Sun Liancheng spoke formally: "Chen Yanshi, I have a few questions for you, please answer them."

"You keep saying you're just an ordinary citizen, but how can an ordinary citizen like you contact the provincial party secretary? How can an ordinary citizen contact the secretary of the discipline inspection commission? How can an ordinary citizen contact the deputy secretary of the provincial party committee?"

"So what if you have connections? Why pretend to be so high and mighty? You're just an ordinary citizen. Go out on the street and find an ordinary citizen to sit between the provincial party secretary and the governor and see what happens."

After being bombarded with questions by Sun Liancheng, Chen Yanshi was completely bewildered and instinctively opened his mouth, stammering, "I..."

After a pause, Sun Liancheng continued, "What do you mean, 'you'? Chen Yanshi, as the former deputy chief prosecutor of the Handong Provincial Procuratorate, don't those people from Dafeng Factory understand? Don't you understand either? Twenty acres of industrial land, changing the land use without authorization is illegal, don't you know that?"

"And even if there is industrial land in Guangming District, does Dafeng Factory have the money to buy it? They want land without a single penny. I approved it for Dafeng Factory. Don't you know what kind of situation that is?"

"That's embezzling state-owned assets, just like Liu Xinjian of the Handong Provincial Oil and Gas Group. That's illegal and criminal!"

"You're always chasing after me asking for land. Don't you think you know the provincial party secretary? Don't you know the secretary of the discipline inspection commission? Why don't you ask them to approve the land for you?"

"Because you knew it was illegal, I approved the land, and now I'm the one who has to take the blame!"

"Chen Yanshi, you're a shameless scoundrel! You're not even as good as Zhao Lichun. What right do you have to sit here?"

"Chen Yanshi, are you mute? Speak up!"
