Chapter 1099: Helped You Clear Your Name!

Tang Ye called Ma Ran into his office.

"You are very familiar with the deeds of Comrade Zhou Songtao. Pull some personnel, work some overtime tonight, and write a report. Provincial Governor Fu wants to see it."

Ma Ran nodded slightly, "I will go prepare it now."

Tang Ye thought for a moment, called Ma Ran back, and added, "Give Zhou Songtao's wife, Wu Li, a call and ask her to come to my office."

The matter had a result.

Wu Li needed to be informed as soon as possible.

Ma Ran gladly accepted the order and returned to his office to call Wu Li.

"Teacher Wu, County Magistrate Tang would like to meet with you. When are you free?"

"I am free now!"

"Please come to the County Party Committee."

Wu Li quickly arrived at the County Party Committee Compound.

Ma Ran arranged for Qian Wenle to meet Wu Li downstairs.

Walking into the compound, Wu Li had a feeling that things remained but people had changed.

When Zhou Songtao was County Magistrate, she could enter and exit at will without going through the checkpoint.

However, after Zhou Songtao passed away, because she had doubts about the cause of death, she frequently went to the city and the province to petition, and she ended up on the security blacklist.

The security guards used to look at her with vigilance.

However, things had changed now; there was guilt, sympathy, and pity in the security guards' eyes.

Although the official notice had not yet been issued, everyone already knew the truth of the matter.

Mao Yu was the culprit.

Zhou Songtao was the victim, and even more so, a hero.

"Teacher Wu, you have worked hard."

"It was no trouble."

Wu Li walked into Tang Ye's office.

Tang Ye stood up and poured a cup of tea for Wu Li, "Teacher Wu, please have some tea."

Wu Li hurriedly took the teacup, "Thank you."

Tang Ye said with deep emotion, "Regarding the cause of Comrade Songtao's death, we have already reached a preliminary conclusion. He discovered that Mao Yu and Chen Shunfei had a conflict of interest, and after he obtained evidence, he was discovered by the two of them.

In order to force Comrade Songtao to hand over the incriminating evidence, Chen Shunfei used death as a threat. During the struggle, he met with misfortune."

Wu Li wiped her tears and choked up, "I knew it. He was a person who treated life with positivity and optimism; it was impossible for him to commit suicide. Thank you, County Magistrate Tang. If it weren't for you, no one would know the truth. You helped me and my daughter out of a predicament."

Tang Ye waved his hand and said sincerely, "Please don't be so polite. Actually, it is the result of you insisting on seeking the truth. After you went to the province to petition, Provincial Governor Fu kept paying attention to this matter. If you had given up, the truth might never have surfaced. Additionally, Provincial Governor Fu thinks highly of Comrade Zhou Songtao and will report his deeds to the Provincial Party Committee."

Wu Li wiped away her tears, "If he knows about this in the afterlife, he can finally be at peace!"

Tang Ye promised, "Although Comrade Songtao is gone, we will not forget his contributions to Yechuan. If you have any needs, you can communicate with me at any time, and I will do my best to help you."

Wu Li sighed, "County Magistrate Tang, you have helped me too much. I really don't know how to repay you."

Tang Ye said sincerely, "Although Songtao has left, we are all his comrades. The organization will not let the family of a hero suffer any grievances."

Immediately following this, Tang Ye provided Wu Li with some substantive comfort.

For example, he called the school and explicitly requested that the school authorities pay attention to Wu Li.

The pension compensation for Zhou Songtao's passing was recalculated;

And Wu Li's daughter was transferred back to the teacher's class.

Wu Li walked out of the County Party Committee Compound, subconsciously turned around to look, and sighed to herself.

Husband, did you see?

I finally did it!

I have cleared your name.

I must thank Tang Ye for this matter.

Although this County Magistrate is very young, he is not only capable in his work but also very empathetic.

With such an excellent successor, you can rest easy now!

……

Around eight o'clock in the evening, Ma Ran took Zhou Songtao's materials and knocked on the door of Tang Ye's office.

Tang Ye took the materials and quickly read through them once.

The draft was written very fluently, and the wording was also very precise.

The entire process was described very clearly.

There was no piling up of flowery language; it was clear at a glance.

Tang Ye felt that this was the best way to present the material.

It should be substantive; long-windedness had no meaning.

Ma Ran had been his Liaison Officer for almost two years now, and through high-intensity work, his writing skills had clearly strengthened.

The ability to write official documents was a fundamental skill for a Government worker.

Therefore, for this material, Tang Ye did not need to adjust it word for word.

Ma Ran adjusted a version according to the revision suggestions and then handed it to Tang Ye.

Tang Ye sent the material to Jiang Jing's Secretary, Lu Tianming.

Lu Tianming subsequently printed out the material for Jiang Jing to review.

Jiang Jing felt there were no problems and had Lu Tianming send the material to Provincial Governor Fu's Secretary.

Next was waiting for news.

Three days later, Tang Ye received a call from Jiang Jing.

"Provincial Governor Fu has reported the deeds of Comrade Zhou Songtao to the Provincial Party Committee. The higher-ups attach great importance to this matter and have issued instructions. They require the entire province to learn from the spirit of Zhou Songtao: governing for the people, fearing no power, and daring to struggle against evil forces.

In a while, the province will arrange for a working group to head to Yechuan County. You must prepare for the work. The city will also cooperate; in this matter, there is room to make a move."

Tang Ye understood Jiang Jing's meaning.

This matter was his own political achievement, and it was also Jiang Jing's political achievement.

Tang Ye had corrected the wrongs and secured the deserved reputation for his predecessor.

By utilizing this matter, he had also demonstrated his own ability.

As for Jiang Jing, he was the strategist.

He had turned this controversial event into a positive piece of propaganda.

Tang Ye sighed with emotion, "That is wonderful. For the family of Zhou Songtao, this is the best result."

Tang Ye subsequently arrived at the County Party Secretary Office.

Han Zhengyi was on the phone and pointed toward the sofa.

After Han Zhengyi finished the call, Tang Ye said, "Secretary Han, I just received news from Mayor Jiang. Regarding the deeds of Comrade Zhou Songtao, the province wants to establish him as a model for study. In a few days, people from the province will come to Yechuan County, and we need to prepare for the reception."

Han Zhengyi felt some emotion in his heart.

Promoting a model for study should fall under his own scope of management.

Tang Ye communicating with the city was clearly a case of reaching his hand into his own territory.

Han Zhengyi nodded slightly, "I will have the County Party Committee Office coordinate this matter later. I actually wanted to communicate with you in advance. The problem with Comrade Mao Yu is very serious and must be dealt with severely. Now that the position of Executive Deputy County Magistrate is vacant, do you have any good suggestions?"

Just like all power struggles.

What followed was a discussion on cleaning up the battlefield and distributing the spoils of war.

Tang Ye smiled, "Secretary Han, I am new here and am not familiar with the comrades in Yechuan. As for who should take this position, it should still be based primarily on your opinion.

However, there are a few comrades who have performed quite prominently recently, including Comrade Li Yongan and Comrade Chen Zhihe. I think we could place more responsibility on their shoulders!"

Han Zhengyi was lost in thought.

Tang Ye was using the position of Executive Deputy County Magistrate as a bargaining chip to exchange for two posts.

He was a person who knew how to obtain the maximum benefit through action!
