In name only: The land of Handong, I shall rule its fate.

"right!"

Lü Liang nodded without hesitation, "It's Secretary Gao's sister-in-law, Chief of Staff Lu's wife. She's also the recently retired head of the Second Civil Division of the Provincial High Court."

The initial joy in Tian Guofu's eyes at being involved in a major case vanished, replaced by only frustration.

Gao Yuliang was an ally that Shajiabang was currently trying to win over, so it was difficult to take action against him, especially since he also had a spouse in the military system.

Otherwise, Chen Yanshi's yesterday would be Yao Xinyi's today, and she could take the opportunity to remove Ji Changming, the provincial procurator general who has no bottom line, and use the opportunity to get rid of her own people.

But it's too difficult now.

"Where did you get this recording?"

Tian Guofu asked, "You wouldn't be secretly monitoring the movements of a deputy provincial-level leader, would you?"

"I don't have that ability."

Lü Liang smiled wryly, "Almost immediately after the Standing Committee approved my appointment, no, without my knowledge at the time, this recording pen quietly appeared on my desk."

"As for the surveillance cameras in the corridor outside the office, to be honest, those guys in the anti-corruption bureau are all arrogant. They didn't even take Chen Hai and Ji Jian seriously. They treat my office like their own home, coming and going as they please. They have no idea who put them in there."

"The matter involves the quarterly inspection, and the audit office is still located within the institute, so there's no way I could conduct a large-scale investigation."

Tian Guofu had no doubts.

If Lü Liang really had the guts to monitor Ji Changming, he wouldn't have been suppressed by that good-for-nothing Chen Hai for so many years.

"You said... was this recording sent to just you, or to many other people?"

Tian Guofu suddenly asked.

In order to increase the success rate of reports received by discipline inspection and procuratorial organs, many parties involved send multiple copies of the same report, especially anonymous reports involving elusive individuals, as they do not place their hopes on just one person.

"Secretary Tian, ​​do you mean...?"

Lü Liang asked tentatively.

"I'm worried!"

Tian Guofu sighed softly, "The provincial supervisory department may have also received the news."

"It is true that the Supervision Department only oversees government administrative personnel, but it is essentially the same organization as the Discipline Inspection Commission with two names. Governor Qiu Tianhen is also the deputy secretary of the Discipline Inspection Commission."

"In principle, he is capable of managing it."

"And Governor Tianhen knew, and Governor Zhiyuan also knew."

Tian Guofu's brows furrowed more and more. Based on his understanding of Lin Zhiyuan, if they reacted even a little slower, they would be met with a head-on attack. Not to mention killing Gao Yuliang, the secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, they would at least kill Ji Changming directly.

Their preparations in Shajiabang were insufficient, and the vacant positions will likely fall into the hands of the provincial government faction.

After all, Gao Yuliang has been turning over a new leaf and undergoing radical reforms recently, causing a sense of unease among the Han University gang members.

Lü Liang remained silent, not daring to speak; he was not qualified to participate in such a high-level topic.

"Comrade Lü Liang, why is your seasonal procuratorate seemingly afraid of this retired female judge?"

As if he had just thought of something, Tian Guofu suddenly asked.

It's normal for Lüliang to be afraid.

After all, the other party has Gao Yuliang, who is a full-time deputy secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, and her husband's family is also well-off, so Ji Changming's situation is a bit unreasonable.

Just because she was a senior alumna, Ji Changming became timid and hesitant in front of a retired deputy director-level cadre?

What happened to the chief of staff husband?

We're not even in the same system, and besides, your precious daughter works for me.

It's ridiculous!

"Hey, Secretary Tian."

Lü Liang sighed, "The reason why Prosecutor Ji respects Judge Wu is actually the same as why Huang Hao doesn't dare to report Deputy Prosecutor Lin."

"It's not because of one person or one position, but because of one surname and one group of people."

Lü Liang gritted his teeth and said, "Secretary Tian, ​​although you have been in Handong for a long time, you are not a local. You don't know the connections and background that the Yao, Lin, Zhao and Wu families have cultivated in Handong for decades or even hundreds of years."

Tian Guofu raised an eyebrow in surprise; this was the first time he had ever heard of a local family in Handong.

"The Yao, Lin, and Zhao families specialize in working within the political and legal system, but each family has its own focus: the Yao family in the courts, the Lin family in the procuratorate, and the Zhao family in the public security system. This Zhao family is not the Zhao who is looking for the old Party Secretary. I'll tell you about someone and you'll know: Zhao Donglai, the former director of the Jingzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau."

"The Wu family is the same Wu family that Professor Wu Guifen, the wife of Secretary Gao, belongs to. They are relatively well-off and work in the education system."

Lü Liang began to recount his story slowly.

"etc!"

Tian Guofu interrupted Lü Liang, "That's not right. I remember before the incident, Zhao Donglai was just a confidant of Secretary Li Dakang, and he hadn't even become the vice mayor in charge of political and legal affairs."

"Because of the old Party Secretary!"

Lü Liang replied naturally, "Two Zhaos cannot share one mountain. Before Secretary Zhao became governor, his biggest competitor was Liang Qunfeng, the then full-time deputy secretary and secretary of the Political and Legal Affairs Commission."

"Later, when Secretary Zhao successfully took office, he naturally launched a purge of the political and legal system, and the first to be targeted was the Zhao family of Jingzhou in the public security system."

"The Zhao family of Jingzhou suffered heavy losses, and some of them followed former Party Secretary Liang Qunfeng to the capital, where they finally found a stable place."

"Zhao Donglai came from the capital. As for whether he is a vanguard in the fight to retake Handong or a scapegoat, I don't know."

Lü Liang added.

"The Chen family's influence in the procuratorate is not weak, but it is far inferior to these three families. The Chen family only has a father and son, and there is a break in the line. The Yao, Lin, and Zhao families have been in the same system for several generations without interruption. In addition, their protégés and former subordinates are simply terrifying."

"The procuratorate had received a report that Director Qi of the provincial department had arranged for his fellow villagers to enter local municipal bureaus, but compared to these three, what are they?"

Lü Liang let out a contemptuous sneer:

"For example, in our anti-corruption bureau, there is a young comrade named Lin Huahua, 27 years old, who is the head of the comprehensive section and a powerful section-level official. Her uncle is Lin Zhengfa, the deputy procurator."

"His abilities are mediocre, he's careless and sloppy, and he even has an office romance with his subordinates, but he managed to resolve his job rank and salary issues early on. That's the real way to make a fortune quietly."

"Director Qi's only disadvantage is his family background. His relationship with his father-in-law is terrible, and Secretary Gao doesn't teach his students anything. He doesn't understand this principle, and everyone knows about it."

Tian Guofu quickly stopped the topic. Qi Tongwei had already been under investigation by him, but shortly after Lin Zhiyuan arrived, Qi Tongwei had already purged those villagers who had been recruited improperly.

Settling scores later is an ugly thing to do.

Shajiabang would not want to do such a shameless thing unless forced to.

After all, we've come this far.

Everyone has a few scandals; they can't withstand close scrutiny.

"I'm taking the voice recorder with me."

Tian Guofu tucked the recording pen into his pocket and warned, "Just pretend this never happened. Don't tell anyone or leak any information."

Lü Liang quickly stood up and asked anxiously, "Secretary Tian, ​​what about Comrade Huang Hao?"

"Wait for news!"
