Official excuse: I was sent to work at the grassroots level for training, and Hou Liangping arrested

"Xiao Zhang, you shouldn't get involved either."

Requesting flowers...

That afternoon, Lin Yunfei arrived at the Jingzhou Hotel, where the inspection team was staying, in his Range Rover.

He was quite surprised to meet someone.

To be precise, it was a woman, Zhong Xiaoai.

Lin Yunfei was slightly taken aback, clearly not expecting to run into Zhong Xiaoai here. He stopped and gave a polite smile: "Sister Xiaoai, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Zhong Xiaoai seemed a little surprised, but quickly regained her composure and replied with a smile, "Yunfei, what a coincidence. Are you also here to inspect the work?"

Lin Yunfei gently shook his head: "No, I'm here to see a friend. But Xiao Ai, I don't remember you being on the inspection team?"

Zhong Xiaoai said calmly, "Yunfei, I only joined the inspection team three days ago."

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lin Yunfei said goodbye: "Sister Xiao Ai, you go ahead with your work, I won't bother you any longer."

Zhong Xiaoai nodded and smiled slightly, saying, "Okay, I'll keep in touch when I have time."

Watching Lin Yunfei's departing figure, a complex light flashed in Zhong Xiaoai's eyes.

She turned and continued walking towards the inspection team's room, but in her heart she was thinking about whether her chance encounter with Lin Yunfei meant anything.

She knew but thought it was just someone with the same name.

I never imagined it really was the Lin family, spanning three generations.

Lin Yunfei came to Handong and also served as the most important director of the Jingzhou Public Security Bureau.

Zhong Xiaoai returned to her room, sat on the sofa, and fell into deep thought. Lin Yunfei's appearance made her recall many things from the past.

Back then, her father, Zhong Zhengguo, wanted to marry her off to Lin Yunfei and have her join the Lin family.

After all, the two families were barely considered a good match.

However, the patriarch of the Lin family, who is now the Grand Secretary Lin Jianguo, disagreed.

Now, to meet again on such a occasion fills Zhong Xiaoai with mixed feelings.

Zhong Xiaoai knew very well that Lin Yunfei's arrival in Handong to serve as the director of the Jingzhou Public Security Bureau was by no means accidental.

There must be complex political considerations behind him.

As a member of the inspection team, my purpose in coming here is to investigate the corruption problems in Handong Province.

Zhong Xiaoai understood that she and Lin Yunfei were now on different sides.

However, she still hopes that Lin Yunfei can uphold his principles and not be corrupted by corruption.

Zhong Xiaoai decided to find a suitable opportunity to have a good talk with Lin Yunfei.

She wanted to know Lin Yunfei's true stance on the corruption problem in Handong Province. Perhaps, through conversation, they could find some common ground.

Lin Yunfei entered the inspection team's room, specifically the team leader's room.

A steady, powerful voice came from inside: "Please come in."

Lin Yunfei pushed open the door and went inside. A friendly smile graced his face: "Uncle Chu, I'd like to invite you to my home for dinner."

Chu Zhongzhou sat on the sofa, wearing reading glasses. He held a document in his hand. "Hey, Yunfei. You've got some nerve."

"Uncle Chu, please don't say that. It's mainly Lanlan who wants to invite you to a simple meal."

"The chef has already prepared everything," Lin Yunfei said calmly, stating his purpose.

Chu Zhongzhou slowly stood up and took off his reading glasses: "Lanlan, that girl invited me. I have to go."

...

Jingzhou, Dihaoyuan Villa District.

Chu Zhongzhou looked at the table laden with delicious-looking dishes and smiled happily, "Lanlan, thank you for your hospitality."

Zhao Lan took out a bottle of specially supplied liquor: "Uncle Chu, you're too kind. When we were kids, we used to run to your house in Beijing to play."

"Tianxiong, he used to wet his pants a lot back then."

Zhao Lan, with her wit and humor, said with a smile.

"Haha, Lanlan. I didn't expect you to still remember." Chu Zhongzhou couldn't help but laugh heartily, stood up and opened the special supply wine, and couldn't wait to pour himself a glass.

"Time flies! In the blink of an eye, you've become a general."

"I haven't heard from you all these years." Chu Zhongzhou looked at Zhao Lan, noticing the military rank on her shoulders. A fleeting look of envy crossed his eyes.

Zhao Lan smiled brightly: "Uncle Chu, you should understand the principle of confidentiality."

"Alright, I won't ask anymore. Let's not talk about business today, only personal matters."

Chu Zhongzhou spoke slowly, then suddenly realized what was going on.

"By the way, Lanlan, do you know that the Zhong family's son-in-law, Sun Wukong, has been demoted to Handong?"

Chu Zhongzhou smiled and looked at Zhao Lan. "Let's talk about something happy."

Zhao Lan paused for a moment, then thought for a second: "Oh, Uncle Chu. You mean Hou Liangping, who's trying to climb the social ladder by marrying Zhong Xiaoai?"

“I know, my dad demoted him to a county-level city and made him the chief prosecutor of Dongping City.”

Chu Zhongzhou snapped out of his daze and looked at Lin Yunfei: "You said that?"

Lin Yunfei nodded and admitted, "I did it."

"The Zhong family in Zhongyuan Province lost a provincial party secretary. This prompted the Zhong family to take action, trying to move Zhao Lichun's influence in Handong," Lin Yunfei said slowly, his words hitting the nail on the head.

Chu Zhongzhou suddenly realized: "No wonder, Sha Ruijin wants to join forces with the Zhong family."

"Anti-corruption and discipline inspection are the two best knives."

Lin Yunfei changed the subject: "However, Hou Liangping's knife hurts both himself and others."

Chu Zhongzhou asked, "Why? Do you know Hou Liangping very well?"

"Uncle Chu. Hou Liangping's style of doing things is that he will stop at nothing to achieve his goals."

Lin Yunfei offered a sharp and insightful analysis.

"In other words, people like Hou Liangping do not follow political rules when they do things."

"In order to get promoted, he even wanted to send his teacher, Gao Yuliang, to Qincheng Prison," Lin Yunfei said slowly, his words startling.

Zhao Lan made a startling statement: "Isn't that just being an ingrate?"

Lin Yunfei: "You're right, Hou Liangping is a complete ingrate."

Upon hearing this, Chu Zhongzhou frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Yunfei, do you have any evidence to support your claim about him?"

Lin Yunfei smiled, went into his room, and took out an investigation report: "Uncle Chu, this is the National Security Bureau's investigation report on Hou Liangping during his tenure as the chief prosecutor of Dongping City. You'll understand once you take a look."

This investigation report details how Hou Liangping eliminated political opponents within the Dongping City Procuratorate. He transferred Li Renjun, the acting procurator general of Dongping City, to the procuratorate's office as its director.

There are significant doubts regarding the review of evidence in the Wan Hai case.

Wan Hai's accusation is that Wang Yu was illegally detained. There is only Chen Youcai's testimony, but no medical report on Wang Yu's injuries.

In other words, there are only eyewitness accounts, but no physical evidence.

The Wanjiadeng Entertainment City: Suspicious Points in the Intentional Injury Case...

Wanhai's Wanchuan Mining Company was the site of a shooting incident on January 31, 1 years ago.

The murderer who shot and killed someone was named Wang Dayou, but he became an accomplice and was released on medical parole. He faked his death and survived.

Wang Dayou has now changed his name to Xiong Lei.

Wang Dayou's ability to be granted medical parole may implicate Jiang Xudong, the then Secretary of the Political and Legal Committee of Dongping City.

Note: Jiang Xudong is currently the Vice Chairman of the Hebei Provincial Association for Promoting Democracy.

Wanchuan Mining was found to contain copper and nickel three years ago. Its value soared by more than 20 billion yuan.

Hou Liangping completely ignored these major doubts.

They forcibly turned Wan Hai into a gangster.

Chu Zhongzhou took the document and began to read it carefully. His brows furrowed more and more, and a look of displeasure appeared on his face: "This Hou Liangping is really too much. He will stop at nothing to advance his own future."

“Innocent civilians were forcibly labeled as gangsters.”

"There must be serious problems with the public security, procuratorate, and judicial system in Dongping City," Chu Zhongzhou said slowly, offering a sharp and incisive analysis.

Zhao Lan chimed in, "That kind of person is an ingrate."

Lin Yunfei nodded, then said something surprising: "That's right, Uncle Chu. We must find a way to ruin Hou Liangping's reputation."

Chu Zhongzhou put down the document and looked at Lin Yunfei: "Yunfei, what are your thoughts?"

A ruthless glint flashed in Lin Yunfei's eyes: "Uncle Chu, we can use the Wan Hai case... and then make a big fuss about this. The inspection team will receive the report and go to Dongping City to reopen the investigation of the Wan Hai case... and ruin Hou Liangping's reputation."

Upon hearing this, Chu Zhongzhou's eyes flashed with a hint of appreciation: "Hmm, that's a good idea. Yunfei, you really are a smart man."

Zhao Lan also praised him from the side, saying, "Yunfei, you are really amazing. You even thought of such a method."

Chu Zhongzhou spoke slowly, his expression serious: "Comrade Guoan, you are truly impressive. However, we must still pay attention to procedures and not give outsiders any leverage."

Zhao Lan smiled radiantly: "Don't worry, Uncle Chu."

"As the First Secretary of the State Security Department of Handong Province, I am here in the name of investigating Wanchuan Mining's copper-nickel mine and protecting the country's mineral resources."

"Conduct a covert investigation."

"As you know, we in the Han Dynasty attach great importance to the supervision of mineral resources."

"As long as someone is caught smuggling goods across the border and is discovered by customs and coast guard, they can be arrested immediately," Zhao Lan said slowly with a serious expression.

Chu Zhongzhou nodded slightly, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief: "I know, you're so smart, Lanlan."

Ring ring! At that moment, Lin Yunfei's phone rang.

Zhao Lan turned her head and glanced at it: "Whose call was that?"
