The Official Ladder: I ascend to the pinnacle of power, wielding the power of life and death.

“Secretary Yiming, you’re exaggerating. How could I dare to label someone so casually?”

Xu Hui pretended to be scared: "Never mind, I'm just a nobody, I wouldn't dare offend a big leader like you. I'll go back and have them release the person so as not to offend you."

County Head Zhang Yuntao spoke up: "Xu Hui, watch your words. Secretary Yiming made it very clear that he supports handling the matter according to law and regulations. Don't misinterpret his meaning."

Jiang Xuangui also spoke up, saying, "Comrade Zhengqiang, you should investigate this matter thoroughly. If Wang Lifeng is indeed guilty, regardless of his identity, he should be dealt with according to the law and regulations. If there is no problem, release him immediately."

"I believe Secretary Yiming will not protect anyone, so you should handle this boldly."

Jiang Yiming coldly watched Jiang Xuangui and Wang Xianming perform.

He couldn't believe that such an absurd scene would occur at a meeting like this without someone's permission.

"I have always supported handling matters in accordance with laws and regulations."

Jiang Yiming said, "I will continue to pay attention to Wang Lifeng's matter. If anyone dares to retaliate or deliberately increase the punishment, I, Jiang Yiming, will never let it go!"

Jiang Yiming's voice was deafening, and everyone present could clearly feel that Jiang Yiming was truly enraged.

"Oh, right, I also have something to report."

Jiang Yiming took out a recording pen and said, "Someone reported to me that Comrade Xu Hui, the director of Kaiyuan Police Station, accepted bribes, extorted bribes, suppressed investors from other places, and used various inspections as a threat to force investors to provide cash for his use."

"This investor was careful and recorded their conversation."

"Secretary Xu Jian, I've handed over the evidence to you. I suggest your discipline inspection commission investigate and verify it."

After saying that, he looked at Jiang Xuangui and said, "Secretary Xuangui, I suggest that this kind of person who knowingly breaks the law be dismissed on the spot and cooperate with the relevant departments in the investigation."

"Secretary Jiang, I... I've been wronged."

Xu Hui naturally wouldn't sit idly by: "Secretary Jiang, County Chief Wang, Jiang Yiming is retaliating against me. You must stand up for me!"

"I'm accusing you? You think you're worthy?"

Jiang Yiming turned on the recorder, and immediately the conversation between Xu Hui and Liu Qing asking for money appeared.

Upon hearing the conversation, Xu Hui's face turned pale.

Wang Xianming's expression was gloomy, and he remained silent.

Jiang Xuangui frowned, then said, "This matter needs further verification. The Discipline Inspection Commission will lead the investigation, and we will take further action once the matter is clarified."

In such a public setting, he naturally couldn't pressure the disciplinary committee to give Xu Hui a break.

Therefore, he wanted to handle the situation quietly and talk to Chen Xujian privately later.

Protect his beloved general.

Jiang Yiming almost laughed in anger. The evidence was right in front of him, yet Jiang Xuangui still wanted to stall for time and buy an opportunity for his beloved general.

He's so shameless!

"Secretary Xuan Gui, what crime did Wang Lifeng from the County Party Committee Office commit? Drunk driving!"

Jiang Yiming said, "According to relevant regulations, the penalty is a six-month suspension of his driver's license and a fine of 100 to 200 yuan. As for whether he obstructed official duties, that hasn't been determined yet. Under these circumstances, the police station is detaining him and refusing to release him. Xu Hui, as the head of the police station, knowingly broke the law, accepted bribes, and solicited bribes. Despite substantial evidence, he hasn't been dismissed. Is this what you keep talking about as acting in accordance with the law, being fair and just?"

"I'm making this clear today: if Xu Hui isn't removed from his post, I'm resigning as deputy secretary of the county party committee!"

Jiang Yiming's words echoed throughout the venue, lingering for a long time.

Everyone present remained silent; no one had expected things to escalate to this point!

Jiang Xuangui's face was extremely gloomy; he hadn't expected Jiang Yiming to utter such harsh words.

This put him in an awkward position!

If Xu Hui is removed from his post, then what I just said will be nothing but a fart, and I will be at a disadvantage in this struggle.

If Xu Hui is not removed from his post, and Jiang Yiming does resign from his position as deputy secretary of the county party committee, it will have a huge negative impact. If the municipal party committee and government investigate, he, as the county party secretary, will probably also be punished.

Most importantly, he's in the wrong!

"I personally support Secretary Yiming's view that Party members and cadres who violate laws and regulations should be dealt with strictly and swiftly to create a deterrent effect."

At this moment, Zhang Yuntao spoke up. If he didn't support Jiang Yiming now, Jiang Yiming probably wouldn't speak up for him when he fought with Jiang Xuangui in the future.

"I also support Secretary Yiming's point of view. As Secretary Xuangui just mentioned, no matter who it is or what their background is, if they break the law, they should be dealt with fairly and justly in accordance with the law and regulations."

Zhao Zhenlin, the Minister of the Organization Department, spoke up.

"Now that there is solid evidence, dismissal should be the only option. Only by removing him from his post can we avoid interfering with the subsequent investigation."

Chen Zixin naturally supported Jiang Yiming.

“Secretary Jiang, I also agree with removing Xu Hui from his post. It will make it easier for our Discipline Inspection Commission to investigate. If we have wronged Director Xu, we can reinstate him later.”

Chen Xujian also spoke up.

Seeing that most of the county party committee members supported Jiang Yiming, Jiang Xuangui had no choice but to make concessions.

"Everyone has expressed their opinions, and my thoughts are actually the same as everyone else's. The reason why we made the decision not to dismiss him was mainly due to the impact."

Jiang Xuangui tried to save face: "The relevant comrades from the Municipal Public Security Bureau are still in our county providing guidance on the investigation of the bank robbery case, but we have problems within our own ranks. How will the leaders of the Municipal Bureau view this?"

"However, I will personally explain this matter to the leaders of the Municipal Bureau and try to gain their understanding."

"Then, according to everyone's opinion, let's remove Xu Hui from his post!"
