Chapter 26: Fireworks, Send Off the Plague God!

  Lu Zhengdong is now very relaxed.

  Although the investigation team is still investigating his conspiracy with someone under the big banyan tree, it's all fabricated and can't withstand investigation and scrutiny.

  With his words in the investigation team, with Liang Hui Tian's arrival, he believed that things had reached this point, Wang Liben already had no way to cover up his lid, fire is still fire, and Wang Liben can't wrap it up with paper.

  As soon as the lid was lifted, Wang Liben's actions in Shanhe were completely exposed. Wang Liben had some connections in the county and someone had informed the investigation team to cover up for him; the investigation team didn't dare to turn black and white upside down on such a trivial matter, they would definitely investigate until the truth came out, so Lu Zhengdong was not worried about being implicated at all.

  Lu Zhengdong raised his head involuntarily. If Lu Zhengdong's road expansion and factory renovation reward had not completely anticipated Wang Liben's opposition, Wang Liben's mistake was due to his arrogance and recklessness. In this election, Lu Zhengdong did not give Wang Liben any opportunity at all. Wang Liben had no choice but to follow the wrong path step by step into a dead end.

  For a wicked person like Wang Liben, there is only one way to deal with him, that is to use his own method to cure himself. All the things Wang Liben has done to others will be returned to him this time, and he cannot escape this time!

  Thinking of this, Lu Zhongdong couldn't help but smile. At this time, Wang Liben was probably panicked, right? I wonder what kind of expression Wang Liben has now, it must be very interesting! ...Lu Zhongdong guessed correctly, at this moment Wang Liben is completely panicked!

  In fact, from the moment he left the investigation team to Shanhe, his heart had been hanging in the air. When Liang Huitian, who shouldn't have appeared at all, showed up at the township government, he was completely stunned and felt anxious and uneasy every day.

  But at this moment, he had no way to think of anything else. The investigation team took turns "understanding" the situation with him, actually not giving him a chance to arrange and set up again...

  Actually, Yao Zhi-fei and Ma Lin had to "accompany" Wang Li-ben. Both of them felt that Wang Li-ben was obstructing the investigation, so they had to keep him company in order to understand the true situation and let the investigation proceed smoothly.

  After getting Wang Liben entangled, the investigation of the election was also proceeding in an orderly manner. From the secret visits, no one was found to have secretly informed the public about the election, and instead, everyone was applauding. This situation also made Yao Zhifei and Ma Lin doubt whether there were really any problems with the investigation of the election. The reflection of Wang Liben and others on the situation was re-examined, and the opinions reflected by other people were given more attention.

  The problems that arose in the election were mainly reflected by Ma Bu Yun and Lu Zheng Dong's secret meeting under the fig tree, and the investigation team conducted a serious investigation. As the investigation deepened, more and more suspicious points emerged, and the investigation team repeatedly asked Ma Bu Yun and Lu Zheng Dong for talks.

  The facts are clearer than ever, and in the face of the facts, Ma Bu Yun, who had been clinging to a glimmer of hope and denying everything, finally had to tell the truth. He confessed that the so-called secret meeting with Lu Zheng Dong under the big banyan tree was completely fabricated, and it was all just a farce directed by Wang Li Ben.

  It was also found out that someone had hidden Liang Huitang away, and as a result, Liang Huitang and others were placed under house arrest.

  The election went smoothly, but the investigation team's undercover work did not go well. At first, many ordinary people were afraid of the investigation team members from the party and government departments, avoiding them as if they were snakes and scorpions, and refusing to contact them at all. Moreover, their eyes showed obvious distrust, even contempt and hatred.

  The common people are like this, which is very abnormal, and also makes Yao Zhifei and Ma Lin more vigilant. This shows that many problems in the mountains and countryside are very serious. So the two of them discussed it and decided to conduct an investigation in a roundabout way under different identities and names while at the same time keeping Wang Liben occupied here so as not to let him obstruct the investigation team's undercover visit.

  The undercover investigators managed to dispel the doubts of the common people, and without any doubts, the common people spoke about the rural government with indignation, reflecting many situations, with Wang Liben being the biggest problem.

  If Wang Liben's words were not followed, he would direct the village security personnel to arrest and beat people at will, disregarding national laws; ignoring policies issued by the central government and higher authorities regarding rural areas, what policy is valid depends on his say; favoring relatives and being arrogant, etc., Wang Liben was too overbearing, lawless, and didn't put ordinary people in his eyes, Wang Liben was like a god in Shanhe, he was the law...

  In addition, this investigation has revealed that Wang Lijun had been putting old party members under house arrest and framing other officials, all of which indicates that the problem with Wang Lijun is very serious...

  It's really unexpected, one check shocked to jump, the grievances of the people in the mountains and countryside are so great, the problems are so many, completely beyond the expectation of Yao Zhi Fei and Ma Lin, especially Wang Li Ben's behavior towards Shanhe and Xiang is simply shocking.

  The situation was already very clear and serious, so the two people didn't dare to delay and immediately reported to the county.

  After Yao Zhifei and Ma Lin reported the true situation they investigated in Shanhe Township to the relevant leaders of the county committee, the county committee also attached great importance to the investigation. County Party Secretary Wen Peiyuan immediately convened a secretary meeting with County Mayor Xin Mingzhong, Deputy Secretary of the Party Group Liao Xuefeng and Organization Department Head Qiu Chenggong, deciding to temporarily remove Wang Liben from his position as Township Party Committee Secretary, pending verification by the county authorities before further processing. Shanhe Township was temporarily overseen by Wu Zhonghe.

  The dust has settled, and the mountain and township cadres and masses who received the news are rushing to tell each other. The ordinary people who received the news are as happy as they would be during Chinese New Year. When Wang Liben was taken away by the investigation team to the county seat for further investigation, many of the ordinary people who received the news spontaneously gathered at the entrance of the township government, "seeing off" Wang Liben's departure.

  When Wang Liben appeared in the courtyard of the township government, the usually arrogant Wang Liben had completely lost his former prestige. He deeply lowered his head, with one hand covering his forehead to hide his face, and walked with his face covered, not daring to see anyone. However, the onlookers still didn't let him off, and someone in the crowd shouted loudly:

  "Out came, out came, Wang Baochang is out! Haha, Wang Baochang, you've got your comeuppance too! Humph..."

  "Finally fell after being stabbed thousands of times..."

  "The county magistrate is wise and has dismissed Wang Liben!"

  "Quickly set off firecrackers, send away the plague god..."

  "Burn paper, burn paper, send Wang Baochang to the 18th level of hell..."

  In the crowd, people shouted and scolded each other, with spitting sounds never leaving one's ears. This is what is meant by "spitting in someone's face" - it's nothing more than this.

  As the firecrackers crackled, Wang Liben's footsteps, walking out of the courtyard, were also a bit shaky. When crossing the gate of the township government, his feet slipped and he fell flat on his back.

  That clumsy appearance, the flustered expression, and that mud-stained hair and clothes, made him look as wretched as possible, and a burst of amused laughter erupted from the crowd...

  What comes out will eventually return!

  Lu Zhengdong stood by the window of his office and saw off Wang Liben, who was in a sorry state, as he got into the car. He then picked up the cup of tea in front of him and took a sip...
