Chapter 2551 Tang Zeyan puts pressure

It was impossible for Qin Feng to refuse someone of Tang Zeyan's level, so Chen Guohua agreed without asking Qin Feng for permission.

Qin Feng's expression was extremely serious after hearing the news. After a long while, he said, "It seems that I must give in on this move."

"Who does Tang Zeyan represent? It can't be Jiang Longjun, right?" Chen Guohua asked.

"Of course not. Tang Zeyan doesn't represent anyone, but some people must have given him some benefits to let him put pressure on me. I can't handle Jiang Longjun alone, and now there's Tang Zeyan. If I don't agree, I will really have no place in the political arena of Shazhou in the future." Qin Feng smiled bitterly.

"You go downstairs to greet them and arrange for them to go to the reception room. The standards should be higher." Qin Feng made the arrangements.

"Then this will..."

"Send a notice, this meeting is temporarily cancelled, we will arrange it later."

……

In the reception room of the municipal government, Qin Feng and Tang Zeyan sat on chairs drinking tea and chatting.

Qin Feng did not invite Tang Zeyan to his office but invited Tang Zeyan to this reception room. This was the highest standard of welcoming Tang Zeyan.

"Mayor Qin, just arrange for you to sit in the office for a while. There's no need to be so formal." Tang Zeyan said with a smile.

"That won't do. Secretary Tang is a distinguished guest and a superior of the Municipal Party Committee. The leader comes to our municipal government to inspect our work and we cannot neglect him." Qin Feng also laughed.

"Secretary Tang, try this tea. The mayor brought it from Jiangnan Province. Knowing you were coming, he specifically asked me to brew this tea. Please give us some comments, Secretary Tang." Chen Guohua took the tea from the staff and placed it in front of Tang Zeyan and Qin Feng.

"Mayor Qin is too polite..."

Qin Feng and Tang Zeyan exchanged pleasantries from time to time. When the pleasantries were almost over, Qin Feng began to get to the point: "Secretary Tang is very busy with work and would not come to visit you for no reason. He is definitely not here to reminisce with me today."

"Mayor Qin, I do want to ask for your opinion on something today. Too many things have happened in our Shazhou in the past two days, especially yesterday, when such a horrific crime as the one in Liujia Village occurred. I also heard that Comrade Sun Yuanwei was beaten up last night." Tang Zeyan asked.

Qin Feng nodded and briefly introduced to Tang Zeyan what happened in the Fuchang District Government last night.

As the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, Tang Zeyan could not have been unaware of what had happened from yesterday to today. Moreover, it was impossible for Tang Zeyan to come to Qin Feng to inquire just because of the Liujia Village matter. He had too many sources of information to know about these things.

Qin Feng knew that Tang Zeyan might not have come because of Sun Yuanwei's injury last night. This was just an excuse for Tang Zeyan to open the topic.

"Mayor Qin, I heard that there was a big move at the Public Security Bureau last night, and they said that they have arrested all the suspects in the Liujia Village case?" Tang Zeyan started to get to the point.

"Yes, they have all been arrested and are being interrogated now. And according to the report from the Public Security Bureau, there is now sufficient evidence to prove that the Liujia Village case was committed by this group of people."

Qin Feng did not hide it, nor could he hide it. He had already reported the matter to the Municipal Party Committee as soon as possible.

"This is the only good news we have had in Shazhou these days. As long as we catch the perpetrators, we will have an explanation to the villagers of Liujia Village. By handling the case and subsequent matters in accordance with the law, we will not only be able to calm the anger of the villagers, but also be able to calmly face the current public opinion."

"Mayor Qin, thanks to you. If it weren't for you, we would have had a hard time surviving this disaster in Shazhou." Tang Zeyan flattered Qin Feng.

"Secretary Tang, you're too serious. Although I did it, it was based on the support of the Municipal Party Committee and Secretary Jiang. Without the support of the Municipal Party Committee, I couldn't accomplish anything." Qin Feng's words were not just official rhetoric; he was telling the truth.

"Mayor Qin, I'm here today mainly because I want to hear your opinions on two things." Tang Zeyan finally got to the point.

Qin Feng nodded, and Chen Guohua, who was sitting next to him, handed cigarettes to the two leaders.

"First of all, the comrades from the Discipline Inspection Commission reported to me last night about the detention of Chang Yunbing, the executive deputy director of the Public Security Bureau. At present, the Discipline Inspection Commission has investigated and questioned Chang Yunbing and related personnel, but has not yet officially filed a case, nor has it placed him under double-regulation in full accordance with the procedures." Tang Zeyan said this and looked at Qin Feng.

Tang Zeyan seemed to be narrating the situation, but in fact he was emphasizing to Qin Feng that the attitude of the Commission for Discipline Inspection towards the investigation of Chang Yunbing had changed, at least it was not in accordance with Qin Feng's wishes.

Because up to now, the Discipline Inspection Commission has not opened a case against Chang Yunbing, nor placed him under disciplinary supervision, but has only given him a statement of investigation and questioning. It is obvious that this is an attempt to suppress the matter.

Although Tang Zeyan is the deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, Jiang Longjun has always had the final say in the Discipline Inspection Commission, so Tang Zeyan told Qin Feng that Jiang Longjun was ready to ask the Discipline Inspection Commission to punish Chang Yunbing leniently.

Tang Zeyan has not yet expressed the purpose of his visit today.

It was because he was unclear about Tang Zeyan's purpose that Qin Feng just nodded after Tang Zeyan finished speaking and did not say anything. He had to let Tang Zeyan state his position and purpose first.

Seeing that Qin Feng did not express his opinion, Tang Zeyan could only continue to speak: "Mayor Qin, I came here today just to ask for your opinion on this matter."

Tang Zeyan still did not express his opinion and instead asked Qin Feng about his attitude.

The two old foxes were unwilling to make the first move, and both wanted to force the other to draw the sword first.

"Secretary Tang, are you dissatisfied with the Commission for Discipline Inspection's current handling of the matter?" Qin Feng asked Tang Zeyan.

Tang Zeyan had no choice but to say, "No, Mayor Qin, I support the current working methods of the Commission for Discipline Inspection. Comrade Chang Yunbing has a great influence in the Municipal Public Security Bureau. The current situation in Shazhou is very special. In order to maintain the combat effectiveness of the Municipal Public Security Bureau and to ensure the stability of the situation in Shazhou, I do not recommend taking strong measures against the Public Security Bureau, especially Comrade Chang Yunbing, at this time."

"Of course, the comrades of the Discipline Inspection Commission have already conducted an investigation into what happened at the Pingshun Municipal Public Security Bureau last night. Comrade Chang Yunbing did make a mistake, but I think this mistake is excusable. It was all for the sake of solving the case as soon as possible. The pressure from the municipal party committee and government on him was too great."

"So I think Comrade Chang Yunbing should be given appropriate punishment. A comprehensive investigation, or even double-disciplinary action, is not appropriate in my opinion. We should also consider this issue from the perspective of the entire Shazhou political situation."

"Mayor Qin, what do you think?" Tang Zeyan directly stated his attitude.

Although Qin Feng had guessed that Tang Zeyan was invited by Lixin Group to put pressure on him today, he still couldn't help but feel angry after hearing what Tang Zeyan said.
