Another major reversal.

The entire audience gasped once more.

Zhou Nongxin quickly said, "Secretary Zhong, this matter..."

"Comrade Chen Fang is a provincial-level cadre. If he has violated regulations and discipline, the Provincial Disciplinary Inspection and Supervision Bureau should handle it. As the Disciplinary Committee Secretary, if I say there's nothing wrong, then there's nothing wrong. Do I need to repeat myself?"

Zhong Yuanzai's attitude was firm.

It was somewhat scolding Zhou Nongxin.

Honestly, this scene was shocking to everyone present.

And for Chen Fang, wasn't it the same?

He didn't know Zhong Yuanzai at all.

Moreover, he had no connections within the Jiangdong Provincial Committee.

He couldn't understand why Zhong Yuanzai would appear at this moment, and his tone... sounded quite tough.

After all, Jiang Chuo was the second in command.

He was the governor.

The Secretary of the Provincial Disciplinary Committee was still half a rank below Jiang Chuo.

This kind of tone had a somewhat confrontational feeling.

Zhou Nongxin was helpless.

He turned to Jiang Chuo.

Jiang Chuo also realized that something was wrong.

Logically, in this situation, Zhong Yuanzai should proactively approach Jiang Chuo to explain the situation.

But Zhong Yuanzai just stood in the middle, with no intention of stepping onto the stage.

Having no choice, to prevent this outcome, Jiang Chuo had to set aside his ego and step down from the platform.

"Secretary Zhong, don't you think you owe me an explanation for this matter?"

Jiang Chuo asked.

Zhong Yuanzai coldly glanced at him.

Then said, "Comrade Jiang... Jiang Chuo, to my knowledge, your appointment as the governor of Jiangdong Province hasn't been finalized yet. That means you are not the governor of Jiangdong Province yet, right? Your visits to the lower cities for research don't concern me, but it's better not to interfere in my Disciplinary Committee's affairs."

In fact, that was indeed the case.

Jiang Chuo was originally scheduled to officially take office in four days.

The reason he hurried to Xiaxiang City for "research."

Was entirely because of this unexpected situation with Liu Zhenping.

Otherwise, he could have waited to challenge Chen Fang after four days.

His original plan was just to have the Xiaxiang City police detain Chen Fang.

Then apply some "pressure."

It would have been best if Chen Fang handed over the notebook.

If he didn't, the case would be transferred to the Provincial Committee for investigation.

As long as Chen Fang was brought down, as the governor, he had countless ways to make Chen Fang "deliver."

He didn't expect the Provincial Disciplinary Inspection Committee to intervene early.

Moreover, he could hear from Zhong Yuanzai's tone that he was here to support Chen Fang.

Four eyes met, lightning flashed and thunder roared.

There's no need for extra words between big figures.

Jiang Chuo could already see that he wouldn't be able to touch Chen Fang today.

After all, he hadn't officially assumed office, that's a fact.

"Alright, since violations of regulations and discipline fall within the Disciplinary Committee's purview, and considering my current position, it's not appropriate for me to interfere, Secretary Zhong, I suppose you'll give me a reasonable explanation in four days?"

This remark from Jiang Chuo was both a concession and a warning.

He was warning Zhong Yuanzai.

Today you indeed won.

But in four days, I will be in office.

At that time, let's see how I deal with you.

Zhong Yuanzai sneered coldly.

Said, "Comrade Jiang Chuo, as I said, since I am the principal officer of the Disciplinary Committee, in four days, I will report to the Provincial Committee."

He deliberately emphasized the words "Provincial Committee."

It was a hint to Jiang Chuo.

The Jiangdong Provincial Committee isn't just your private province, Jiang Chuo.

Even if I, Zhong Yuanzai, want to report, it won't be only for you to hear.

You, Jiang Chuo, still can't monopolize Jiangdong Province.

Jiang Chuo could naturally understand that.

He nodded.

Said to his secretary, Hou Liangping, "Let's go!"

After dropping this remark.

Jiang Chuo strode off briskly.

Zhou Nongxin also felt a wave of disappointment.

He followed closely after Jiang Chuo.

As for Peng Guoliang, he certainly stayed behind.

The venue immediately plunged into chaos, and those who were holding back their excitement to watch the drama didn't expect the outcome to be like this.

"Comrade Chen Fang, come with me for a moment!"

Zhong Yuanzai said to Chen Fang.

After speaking, he turned and left.

Beside the City Committee Courtyard, there was a small garden, which also had a pavilion.

When Chen Fang hurried over, Zhong Yuanzai was already standing in the pavilion.

First.

He glanced at Chen Fang.

Then said, "Are you the Chen Fang who dismantled Sun Yangqian's criminal group in Guanghe County?"

"Secretary Zhong, I am Chen Fang."

Chen Fang replied.

Zhong Yuanzai nodded.

Then said, "You also heard just now, Jiang Chuo will take office in four days. You need to find out the truth about Liu Zhenping's death within these four days. Otherwise, you won't be able to save Comrade Li Weiyang."

Boom!

It was like a bolt from the blue.

Chen Fang shuddered.

He asked, "Comrade Li Weiyang? What happened to her?"

"Don't you know about her voluntary surrender?"

Zhong Yuanzai asked, somewhat puzzled.

Chen Fang shook his head and exclaimed, "Surrender? What do you mean?"

Zhong Yuanzai somewhat understood.

Nodded slightly and said, "Early this morning, Comrade Li Weiyang went to the Provincial Disciplinary Committee and voluntarily admitted that she was the one who went into the police station without authorization, and it had nothing to do with you. Additionally, she admitted that the blade used in Liu Zhenping's suicide was provided by her, which means she took responsibility for Liu Zhenping's death."

"Secretary Zhong, it's not like that, it's not like that..."

Chen Fang wanted to explain.

Zhong Yuanzai raised his hand to stop him.

He said, "I certainly know she didn't do it, but right now, she has admitted to Liu Zhenping's death to keep you out of it. She claimed Liu Zhenping insulted her at the Ha Ha Earth Restaurant, and out of anger, she retaliated. Logically, it makes sense. So your task is to clear her name within four days, which also clears yours. If you can't, then we at the Disciplinary Committee can only convict Comrade Li Weiyang based on this."

That's how it was.

Chen Fang understood.

The reason Li Weiyang did this.

Was to protect him.

This was the only feasible way.

But Chen Fang also knew that finding out the truth in four days was tough; even if he managed to do so, Li Weiyang's career would be over.

Because for falsifying evidence to the Disciplinary Committee, Jiang Chuo would inevitably use it against her.

In other words, she used her own sacrifice to ensure Chen Fang's safety.

Why did it have to be this way?

Why did it have to be this way?

Suddenly, he recalled what Li Weiyang said to him the previous night.

"I'm afraid you won't get to eat it in the future."

At the time, Chen Fang thought he was about to go to prison, and that's why Li Weiyang said that to him.

Unexpectedly, the true meaning was that she was about to lose her freedom.

It was in that moment.

He suddenly understood why Li Weiyang, Xu Lianyun, and others suddenly came to him.

They were there to serve as shields for Chen Fang.
