Hou Liangping arrested a hawkish general, and his father-in-law panicked

He sent his son into the procuratorate system in the hope that he could inherit his mantle and become a good cadre serving the people.

But now, the son he was so proud of was taken away like a criminal.

Why?

Just because they have guns?

The car slowly stopped at the gate of the provincial party committee compound.

Chen Yanshi paid the money, pushed open the car door, and walked towards the heavily guarded gate step by step with his crutches.

The armed police standing guard at the door stood straight with alert eyes.

"Comrade, I'm looking for Sha Ruijin."

Chen Yanshi stood in front of the armed police and spoke in a loud voice.

The young armed police officer looked him over and saw that although he was old, he still had an extraordinary aura. He asked politely, "Old man, do you have an appointment?"

"No appointment."

Chen Yanshi's answer was firm, "Inform your leader and tell him that Chen Yanshi wants to see Sha Ruijin."

He believed that the three words "Chen Yanshi" were the most effective pass in Handong Province.

He just didn't believe that anyone in Handong would dare not give Sha Ruijin face!

……

It feels cool.

It's a bit hard to stick to it.

Are there any friends who read books?

A squeak.

Chapter 73 Sha Ruijin gets slapped in the face

"Old comrade, please wait a moment."

He whispered something into the intercom on his collar.

Soon, a company commander of the armed police with the rank of lieutenant on his shoulders walked out of the gate booth quickly.

The lieutenant came up to Chen Yanshi and saluted him with a standard military salute. "Hello, old comrade. I am the person in charge here. You want to see Secretary Sha, and I will report to the higher-ups immediately. Would you like to go to the reception room to rest first, or..."

"I'll wait here."

Chen Yanshi's voice was calm, and the end of his crutch tapped lightly on the hard concrete floor, as if hammering a nail into the ground.

His attitude was very clear: he would not go anywhere until he saw Sha Ruijin.

The lieutenant turned and walked quickly into the provincial party committee building. ...

At the same time, smoke filled the No. 1 meeting room of the Provincial Party Committee.

The curtains were drawn tightly.

Sha Ruijin sat in the main seat.

His gaze was as calm as water, sweeping over everyone present.

Gao Yuliang sat upright, adjusted his glasses on the bridge of his nose, and the eyes behind the lenses were deep and unfathomable.

Governor Liu frowned and didn't write a single word in the notebook in front of him.

He Liming, deputy secretary of the political commissar, seemed a little restless, with a layer of fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

This was a closed-door meeting of the highest power core in Handong Province.

The atmosphere was extremely depressing.

The one who broke the silence was Sha Ruijin.

"Ji Changming's matter,"

"I will definitely be implicated."

He paused, his eyes sharpening. "He was the one who transferred Hou Liangping here, and he was the one who promoted Chen Hai. Now both are under military control. As the provincial prosecutor, he cannot escape blame."

"Secretary Sha, wasn't it you who transferred Hou Liangping here?"

Sha Ruijin's face suddenly turned ugly.

Gao Yuliang didn't give him any face at all.

"Ji Changming needed manpower, so he transferred your student here..."

Sha Ruijin turned the tables and didn't mention Hou Liangping, but your student.

Gao Yuliang's expression changed slightly.

He certainly understood that this was not just a matter of shirking his responsibility.

This is a political storm, and Ji Changming is one of the people closest to the eye of the storm.

"Then...should we..."

He Liming opened his mouth subconsciously, but swallowed his words back halfway through.

What he meant was, should we find a way to protect Ji Changming?

After all, the Procuratorate is an important part of the political and legal system. If Ji Changming falls, it will have a huge impact on the entire Handong political and legal system.

Sha Ruijin seemed to see through his thoughts and his tone suddenly turned cold.

"At this moment, we must not stand up for Ji Changming."

In one word, it was decisive and blocked all possibilities.

He Liming's face turned pale and he dared not say anything.

Sha Ruijin continued, "Now is not the time to show mercy. The military's direct intervention, bypassing all Handong Province procedures, is an extremely dangerous signal in itself. What we need to do now is to maintain our footing, rather than actively jumping into the fire pit."

The conference room fell silent again.

Everyone was pondering the profound meaning behind Sha Ruijin's words.

"Self-protection", although the word was not spoken out loud, it has clearly emerged in everyone's mind.

He Liming wiped the sweat from his forehead, still seeming a little unwilling, and he thought of another card.

"Secretary Sha, what about... Hou Liangping? Hou Liangping has a special status. Behind him is Elder Zhong."

He emphasized the words "Mr. Zhong", as if he wanted to use this name to shake Sha Ruijin's rock-hard determination.

In the capital, everyone has to consider the weight of the Zhong family.

However, what he waited for was a bone-chilling glance from Sha Ruijin.

There was undisguised contempt and anger in those eyes.

"What does the Zhong family's affairs have to do with you?"

Sha Ruijin's voice was not loud, but it was like a slap in the face, hitting He Liming hard.

He Liming froze, his mouth open, unable to utter a word.

He felt as if the air in the entire conference room was instantly sucked out, and his cheeks were burning hot.

He just wanted to express his political considerations, but he didn't expect to hit the horse's hoof.

Gao Yuliang still kept his head down, sipping his tea and staying out of the matter.

Sha Ruijin's gaze shifted away from He Liming, scanned the entire audience, and his tone became more severe.

"I'm putting this out there. From now on, anyone, and I mean anyone, who comes to meddle in this matter through the backdoor or by pleading for favors will be rejected!"

He emphasized his tone and spoke each word with emphasis.

"Now is the most dangerous moment in Handong Province. We can barely protect ourselves! Anyone who doesn't know what's going on and tries to rescue others will be prepared to sink with them!"

Just as he finished speaking, there was a gentle knock on the door of the conference room.

"Dong dong."

The knock on the door was very light, but it seemed particularly abrupt in such a quiet environment.

Sha Ruijin frowned.

He had already instructed that no one should disturb the meeting.

"Come in."

The door was pushed open a crack, and the director of the Provincial Party Committee Office leaned half of his body in, his face looking a little strange, nervous and embarrassed.

"Secretary Sha, leaders, I'm sorry to bother you."

He bent down and said carefully, "There's something going on at the door...at the door."

"what's the situation?"

Sha Ruijin's tone was impatient.

The director of the general office swallowed and lowered his voice, as if afraid of alarming something.

"Chen Yanshi, Mr. Chen...he's here."

"He's at the gate of the Provincial Party Committee right now, asking to see you by name."

The three words "Chen Yanshi" were like three red-hot iron nails, firmly nailed into the dead silence of the conference room.

Sha Ruijin's face turned ashen in an instant, not the red of rage, but the paleness that came from having all the blood drained away by humiliation and anger.

The rules he had just established with thunderous force were still ringing in everyone's ears - "Anyone, reject them all!"

"Whoever reaches out will sink!"

Sha Ruijin was humiliated. Just as he said that no one was allowed to take the back door, Chen Yanshi arrived.

This was no longer a slap in the face; this was pressing his face to the ground and rubbing it back and forth.

The air in the entire conference room seemed to solidify into a heavy block of lead.

He Liming lowered his head subconsciously, but his shoulders were shaking slightly. He was trying hard to suppress his laughter.
