Chapter 2250 Just Suspicion

Xie Zhiguo stopped talking here and did not continue.

Duan Hongyu took over and asked Xie Zhiguo: "Did the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection say what the reason was?"

Xie Zhiguo shook his head: "The comrades from the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection only informed me that Qin Feng was suspected of violating laws and disciplines, and that the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection would conduct a disciplinary review of him. They did not mention anything about the specific matter involved."

Duan Hongyu then looked at the Secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission Luo Yi and said, "Comrade Luo Yi, has your Discipline Inspection Commission recently received any reports about Qin Feng's violations of laws and disciplines, or do you have any clues about Qin Feng's suspected violations of laws and disciplines?"

Luo Yi shook his head: "This happened very suddenly and it was a bit strange. Usually in this case, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection would report to the Municipal Party Committee, explain the situation, and ask the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection to cooperate and assist. But this time, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection did not inform us in advance, but directly brought people from Zhongjiang to come overnight and went to Secretary Xie's office early in the morning. It was the Secretary-General who reported this to me afterwards."

"This situation is not surprising. It can only mean one thing, that is, the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has solid evidence that Qin Feng has violated laws and disciplines, and the problem is serious. The Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection took into account Qin Feng's special identity and complex power in Xiquan, so they deliberately kept it secret in order to successfully arrest him." Liu Xiaoping took over the conversation.

"I don't quite agree with the mayor's inference." Luo Yi clearly refuted Liu Xiaoping's words. Luo Yi had been at odds with Liu Xiaoping from the beginning to the end, and this started when Xia Junhua served as secretary.

"Since Qin Feng came to our Xiquan, he has been investigated by the Discipline Inspection Commission several times, especially the last time in Yi'an County, where he was deliberately framed and almost went to jail. If he really had a problem, how could he be here today?"

"The last time the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection investigated Qin Feng was a few months ago. Someone maliciously reported Qin Feng. The Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection conducted a comprehensive and thorough investigation of Qin Feng and finally confirmed that Qin Feng was a reliable and completely trustworthy comrade."

"I have looked through the records of the investigation into Qin Feng in the system. Since he started working, Qin Feng has been investigated by the Commission for Discipline Inspection no less than ten times. Each time, the investigation was thorough and comprehensive, but the results of each investigation were the same as the conclusion of the previous one, proving that he is a trustworthy comrade."

"Secretary Hongyu also asked just now that our Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection has not received any reports against Qin Feng recently. Our Commission for Discipline Inspection has always played the role of peer supervision, but we have indeed not found any clues that Qin Feng has violated any law or discipline." Luo Yi said word by word.

Luo Yi has always had a good relationship with Qin Feng and has a very good impression of Qin Feng. Luo Yi also said this today for the purpose of supporting Xie Zhiguo. The people sitting at this table are all smart people. Although no one has said anything off-topic after today's meeting, everyone knows the current political situation in Xiquan and the subtleties of Qin Feng's being taken away this time.

"What's the point of saying this now? I don't think we should discuss why Qin Feng was taken away. What we should discuss is how we should deal with the impact of Qin Feng's violations of laws and regulations." Liu Xiaoping interrupted Luo Yi.

"First of all, I would like to make a profound self-criticism to the organization here. As a member of the party group and deputy secretary of the municipal government, Qin Feng made such a serious mistake. As the party group secretary, I have an unshirkable leadership responsibility." Liu Xiaoping changed the subject and began his "profound" self-criticism.

"Qin Feng is not only the deputy secretary of the party group and executive vice mayor of the municipal government, but also a member of the municipal party committee. Now that Qin Feng is in prison, it will not only have a serious impact on the image of our entire Xiquan municipal party committee and government, but will also cause great problems for the work of our municipal party committee and government."

"I think our top priority is to solve two things. The first is to find a way to control the scope of the impact of Qin Feng's violation of discipline and law on our entire Xiquan Municipal Party Committee and Government, and how to control the impact to the minimum extent."

"The second thing is to study and deploy some countermeasures so that the normal work of our municipal party committee and government will not be affected by Qin Feng's fall."

"First of all, regarding the municipal government, I can take over the routine work that Qin Feng is in charge of. In addition, the poverty alleviation work that Qin Feng is in charge of can be taken over by Comrade Yin Jiankang. However, these can only be temporary arrangements. In view of the importance of the positions of deputy secretary of the municipal government party group and executive vice mayor, I suggest that the municipal party committee study new candidates as soon as possible." Liu Xiaoping said a lot, and it seemed to be reasonable and well-founded.

"Mayor, do you have a misunderstanding? Although the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection took Qin Feng away, they only conducted a disciplinary review. What is a disciplinary review? It means that Qin Feng is suspected of violating laws and disciplines, but it is only a suspicion. As long as the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection does not give a definite conclusion, it cannot be determined whether Qin Feng has really violated laws and disciplines."

"According to what you said, you are planning to convict Qin Feng before the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection does so. I don't think we in Xiquan City have the power to do so, right?" Xie Zhiguo looked at Liu Xiaoping with a sneer.

"Everyone knows what happened. Why does Secretary Xie have to pretend to be deaf and dumb and make a big deal out of it? Secretary Xie is right. Qin Feng is only a suspect and has only been taken away for investigation. Whether he has violated the law or discipline will of course depend on the final conclusion of the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection."

"Everyone knows that since the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has taken the man away, it means they have solid evidence, but they can't just announce it due to procedural reasons."

"I didn't say to dismiss Qin Feng right now. I don't have that power, and neither do our Xiquan Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government. What I meant is that our Municipal Party Committee should make preparations in advance. First, we should find someone to take over Qin Feng's job, and we should also discuss the successor first, so that we won't be in a rush after the investigation comes out."

Liu Xiaoping argued with Xie Zhiguo.

"Mayor Liu, I hope you understand one more thing. Whether Qin Feng is guilty or not is not up to you and not even my opinion. So before the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection gives a clear conclusion, none of us is qualified to make a presumption of guilt against Comrade Qin Feng." Xie Zhiguo looked at Liu Xiaoping coldly.

Xie Zhiguo's words were already very impolite.

"It is a fact that Comrade Qin Feng was taken away by the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection. Therefore, we are holding this meeting today to discuss several points. The first is that we should report this matter internally. We must realize the seriousness of this matter and unify our thoughts. The second is to control the impact of this matter. Before the Provincial Commission for Discipline Inspection has a clear conclusion, no one is allowed to talk about or spread this matter. If discovered, it will be dealt with seriously." Liu Xiaoping was very stern.
