Yan Lian has clearly felt at this time: Zhou Jiqing, this big tree, is likely to collapse, and his future and destiny are closely attached to this big tree. Once Zhou Jiqing falls, Not only will you lose support, but you may even be crushed to death by the force of his collapse.
And Zhou Jiqing just told Yan Lian that he should "protect himself" and lamented that his current situation was like fish on the chopping board and could only be slaughtered by others. This was clearly telling Yan Lian that he, the secretary of the Political and Legal Committee, was at the end of his rope. , it is very likely that it will collapse soon. Therefore, as my old subordinate, you must find a way out by yourself and find another supporter for yourself. Otherwise, the consequences may be difficult to predict. From this point of view, , Yan Lian felt that Zhou Jiqing had some conscience, unlike some fallen leaders who had to pull a few subordinates to support him before they died.
But the question now is: How should I find a way out for myself? If the alliance formed by Zhou Jiqing, Wang Hai and Xie Hongda fails completely in this struggle, will I be attacked by Secretary Lu and Secretary Li? and revenge. If they really want to settle the score, then the members of the current 5.16 task force, especially the leader and deputy leader He Zhi, must be Secretary Lu and Secretary Li’s number one targets for revenge.
Thinking of such consequences, Yan Lian felt shivers all over his body, and like Zhou Jiqing, he felt a sense of despair in his heart.
However, after a brief period of fear, Yan Lian calmed down again and began to concentrate on what he should do now: the first step was to immediately hold a short meeting to announce Secretary Zhou's order and immediately lift the restrictions on Ye Ming. , Chen Guitian and Liang Tanghua will be reviewed and let them go home; the second step is to establish a relationship with Ye Ming as soon as possible, try to please him and please him, so that he will not feel disgusted with him. The best situation is: use today While Ye Ming is still here, try to find ways to have more contact with him and talk to him more. It is best to become friends with him. In this way, if Secretary Lu or Li wants to punish him in the future, he can go to Ye Ming to punish him. If you say a few nice words to yourself, maybe you can save yourself from danger.
Of course, the reason why Yan Lian has such an idea is based on a premise. This premise is: so far, he has not personally interrogated Ye Ming, Chen Guitian and Liang Tanghua, nor has he had a direct conflict with them. , he thought that as long as he was more sincere and told the task force to be stricter and not to reveal that the task force had already made the decision to detain Ye Ming and arrest Chen Guitian and Liang Tanghua, then Ye Ming and others would definitely not be blamed very much. I, after all, this task force was established according to the instructions of Zhou Jiqing, secretary of the Provincial Political and Legal Committee. He, the leader of the task force, was just following orders. I believe the three of them can understand.
It turned out that this Yan Lian was so sophisticated that although he closely followed Zhou Jiqing to frame Ye Ming and others, he had already thought about what he would do if Zhou Jiqing and the others lost. Therefore, at the beginning, he This left a way out for himself: first, he did not confront Ye Ming, Chen Guitian, Liang Tanghua and others, so as not to leave a bad impression in their minds, and he would have no room for change in the future; second, before making the decision to punish Ye When Ye Ming and others made the decision to arrest Chen Guitian and Liang Tanghua, he repeatedly emphasized to everyone in the task force: This is what the above said, and he, the team leader, had to do it as a last resort and to act under orders. In this way, even if Ye Ming and others have to report to the police in the future, The members of the task force inquired about the inside story of Xing Ju and them, so it was not his fault as the team leader; thirdly, when Lu Cheng, Deputy Director Wang and others who were protecting Ye Ming confronted each other, he also tried his best to let He Zhi take the lead in the battle. , he himself did not say anything too extreme, he just told Zhou Jiqing, so he was confident that he did not offend Lu Cheng and others too much...
Because of the above conditions, Yan Lian feels that he is still qualified to make friends with Ye Ming, Chen Guitian and others, and there is still room for a turnaround.
Therefore, after thinking for a moment, Yan Lian immediately convened a short meeting with the members of the task force, which took only ten minutes. At the meeting, he conveyed the latest instructions from Zhou Jiqing, secretary of the Provincial Party Committee's Political and Legal Affairs Committee, and decided to immediately lift the investigation The detention measures for Ye Ming, Chen Guitian, and Liang Tanghua were announced, and he announced that they could leave the place of detention from now on. After the announcement, he ignored everyone's puzzled and shocked looks, waved his hand, and announced that the meeting was adjourned.
He Zhi chased outside unwillingly, and asked Yan Lian what was going on with a livid face.
Yan Lian was now eager to get rid of him and go to meet Ye Ming, so he said to him angrily: "Director He, how do I know what's going on? I'm in a fog now, and I haven't woken up yet. If you If you have any questions, just ask Secretary Zhou, you are also Secretary Zhou’s old subordinate, I believe he will tell you the whole story."
Seeing his unkind expression, He Zhi didn't dare to ask any more questions, so he hurried back to his room and dialed Zhou Jiqing's number...
After Yan Lian waited for He Zhi to leave, he looked at his watch and saw that it was almost midnight. He quickly returned to his separate guest room, picked up the briefcase on the cabinet, and took it out from it, which Li Botang stuffed in the bag when he had dinner in the evening. He bought a pack of Diamond Furong King cigarettes, opened the package, took out two packs of cigarettes, stuffed them into another small handbag, and stuffed his cell phone into the small bag at the same time. Then he went out with the small bag and looked around in the corridor. After a while, I saw that no members of the task force were outside, so I ran with my bag and arrived at the door of Room 501 where Ye Ming was detained.
At this time, the two clerks guarding the door were already drowsy and were telling fortunes on two chairs with their heads lowered. When Yan Lian ran around a corner, he slowed down and walked solemnly. He walked quickly to the door of room 501 and coughed loudly, waking up the two "fortune tellers".
The two clerks were startled when they saw Yan Lian suddenly appearing in front of them. They quickly stood up and greeted Yan Lian while rubbing their sleepy eyes.
Yan Lian waved to them and said, "You can go back to your own rooms and sleep. There is no need to guard here."
When the two clerks heard that they no longer had to keep vigil, they couldn't help but be overjoyed. They quickly said thank you and quickly slipped away to their own rooms.
Yan Lian knocked on the door of room 501 and walked in. He saw Ye Ming sleeping soundly on the bed on the left, while another clerk guarding the room was also sleeping soundly on the bed on the right. Both of them were snoring. The silly sounds came and went, with ups and downs, as if they were playing some kind of music together.
Seeing Ye Ming sleeping so soundly, Yan Lian had to admire this boy's determination: During dinner, He Zhi had already told Ye Ming and threatened him that he would be detained tomorrow. At that time, Ye Ming just He sneered, as if he didn't take this matter to heart. At that time, Yan Lian thought Ye Ming was pretending to be calm, but now seeing him sleeping calmly like this, he realized that he really didn't take it to heart. take the threat seriously.
