Reaching the Pinnacle: Starting from Joining the Discipline Inspection Commission
Chapter 16 The Feast at Hongmen?
New broom takes office —
The first thing to do is to recognize the sect and pay respects to the sect.
In the afternoon, Wang Feng visited the leaders of the Discipline Inspection Commission one by one. Although everyone said roughly the same thing, there were still differences.
First, there was his direct superior, Zhang Yuepu, the director of the First Inspection and Supervision Office of the Discipline Inspection Commission.
He was an older comrade who would be retiring at the end of the year, so he didn't talk much with Wang Feng. He just told him that if anything happened, he could just submit a report so that Wang Feng would be aware of the situation.
It can also be understood as—
He was about to retire and didn't want to cause any more trouble, so he basically handed over all the work of the First Inspection Office to Wang Feng.
Wang Feng was naturally very happy about this, but he still had to save face, so the two chatted happily, and when he left, the other party even gave him two packets of tea.
The second person I visited was Tian Qingluo, a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission.
He's supposedly a top-tier expert with powerful connections, and Chen Dashan has been trying to win him over, but the other party completely ignores him.
This is also why Chen Dashan and others dared not openly mobilize the Discipline Inspection Commission; otherwise, how could he have persisted until now? He would have long since vanished under the Discipline Inspection Commission's relentless pressure.
Facing Tian Qingluo, it would be a lie to say that Wang Feng wasn't nervous. After all, this was his direct superior, and whether his job would be easy or not, and whether he could continue working peacefully, was entirely in Tian Qingluo's hands.
What he didn't expect was that Tian Qingluo seemed to treat him differently. He wasn't exactly close to him, but he wasn't as cold as the outside world described.
In any case, the two had a pleasant conversation, and the other party said that they could contact him directly if they encountered any problems in the future, which was a pleasant surprise.
Wang Feng spent the entire afternoon going out and coming back, and in doing so, he also gained a fairly good understanding of the situation inside the Discipline Inspection Commission.
The summary is:
First, with Zhang Yuepu retiring, he will basically be the one in charge of the First Inspection Office.
Second, the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, Tian Qingluo, welcomed his arrival and hoped to use him to eliminate some of the internal troubles.
Third, Pang Debiao, the deputy secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission, was very unhappy with his arrival and his words were full of threats throughout the conversation.
Near the end of the workday, Zhang Yuepu told him that the First Inspection Office had organized a welcoming ceremony to show their welcome.
Out of his secretary's instinct, he was somewhat resistant to this activity, but considering his current status, he nodded in agreement.
10 PM.
Haoyue Hotel.
After several rounds of meals, Wang Feng, under the pretext of going to the restroom, prepared to pay the bill, but as he turned the corner in the corridor, he overheard the following conversation:
"Manager Wang, have you arranged everything I asked you to?"
Judging from the voice, he remembered that it should be Xiao Li from Room 1, a college student who had just been admitted this year.
He was very curious as to why the other person would say such a thing at this time, so he lingered a little longer.
"Don't worry, everything is arranged. I've also found the right people. All you need to do is bring them in."
Another voice came from inside; it must have been the hotel manager.
"Well, he should be unable to hold on for about half an hour. I'll let you know when that happens, and you can have someone wait for him in the room."
Xiao Li's voice continued to come through.
Wang Feng was confused, but he had already become more cautious.
He had just arrived, and the outside world generally believed that he got to this position because of the new mayor.
If he were to be involved in any bad news at this time, it would inevitably trigger a series of chain reactions.
"it is good."
"Have all the arrangements been made for the reporters?"
Xiao Li's voice came again, and Wang Feng was startled, realizing that what the other party was about to do was definitely not a good thing.
"It's all arranged. I guarantee that all the major platforms will be filled with his sex scandals tomorrow."
The manager's voice came again, and Wang Feng found it somewhat familiar. Wasn't this the same tactic he had used just three days ago?
"But are you sure there's no danger in doing this? There are rumors circulating that the new mayor is his backer. If that's true, wouldn't what we're doing be..."
Wang Feng's pupils contracted.
The gossip has backfired, and I'm the one who's getting involved.
"I'm not worried at all, so why are you? Just do your job well, and you'll get your share of the benefits later."
Hearing Xiao Li's footsteps, Wang Feng hurriedly slipped into the empty private room in front of him. He watched Xiao Li and Xiao Li leave through the crack in the door before stepping out himself.
Who wants to harm me?
Zhang Yuepu?
He organized this dinner tonight, and he invited me here. In terms of suspicion, he is the most likely one.
But what's the reason?
This morning, the other party clearly told me that he was going to cancel his contract and hoped that I could support the family. Was it all just a lie?
Wang Feng frowned, feeling that something was wrong. When he arrived at the front desk to pay, someone had already taken the money, and the payer was Zhang Yuepu.
"Sir, he also left you a note, saying he would give it to you when you come over."
Wang Feng was taken aback, realizing that the other party might know something, but it was just inconvenient for them to tell him directly.
"A little wine is pleasant, too much wine is harmful, and excessive drinking will lead to certain death!"
This…
Wang Feng couldn't help but find it amusing.
This way of reminding people shows that Zhang Yuepu is actually someone who keeps up with the times.
Judging from the note, it is clear that Zhang Yuepu understood that tonight's dinner was a trap, and someone wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to harm him.
He was worried about his youth, which is why he left this note as a warning to himself.
However, we cannot rule out the possibility that he is the mastermind behind tonight's events. What if the other party is playing a trick on him?
With this question in mind, Wang Feng returned to the private room.
Upon seeing him enter, everyone quickly stood up, with Li Qiang, the one who had been talking to the manager, being the first to stand up.
"Please sit down and continue."
Wang Feng looked like he was almost drunk. Seeing this, Li Qiang gave the others a wink and was the first to raise his glass.
"Director Wang, I'd like to propose a toast to you. I hope that under your leadership, our department can catch more corrupt officials and restore a bright and just world to the people of Rongzhou as soon as possible."
Wang Feng squinted.
If he hadn't overheard his conversation with the manager, he might have actually given him special attention and training.
"Alright, Xiao Li, I'll stick with you for your words about restoring a bright and clear world to the people of Rongzhou."
Wang Feng waved his hand, looking like he was already drunk, which made Li Qiang feel excited.
If this succeeds, the future looks promising.
Someone told him that as long as he could create some scandalous news about Wang Feng, there would be no problem with him being promoted to deputy section chief.
People die for wealth, birds die for food. If officials don't strive for promotion, what else do they care about?
Li Qiang didn't think he had done anything wrong at all; on the contrary, he felt that he had found a shortcut to rapid promotion.
Wang Feng noticed the change in Li Qiang's expression and silently drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.
