Chapter 490 Unbridled Pulling

"Li Dakang, don't think you can succeed. You and Zhao Lichun are in the same group. You deliberately framed Teacher Gao for your own selfish interests. I won't let you succeed!" Qi Tongwei openly yelled at Li Dakang at a meeting.

Li Dakang had a serious look on his face, his eyes were firm and sharp, as if he could see through Qi Tongwei's mind. "Qi Tongwei, don't make a fuss here. Gao Yuliang's problem is obvious, and we are acting in accordance with the law. If you continue to be stubborn, you will suffer the consequences sooner or later."

Qi Tongwei sneered: "According to the law? Humph, you are just trying to exclude dissidents. Let me tell you, Li Dakang, I, Qi Tongwei, am not so easy to bully. Just wait and see, I will definitely make you pay the price."

After that, Qi Tongwei turned and left, leaving Li Dakang standing there with a frown on his face. He knew that Qi Tongwei had completely lost his mind, and the relationship between him and Gao Yuliang had reached an irreconcilable point.

In order to thoroughly expose Gao Yuliang's crimes, Li Dakang stepped up the investigation. He personally led the investigation team to go deep into various departments and enterprises to collect evidence. His work attitude was serious and rigorous, and he did not miss any details.

However, Qi Tongwei was not idle either. He used his connections in the public security system to interfere with and obstruct Li Dakang's investigation. He even sent people to track and monitor Li Dakang, trying to find evidence against him.

During this process, the conflict between Qi Tongwei and Li Dakang continued to escalate. They accused and attacked each other on various occasions, with fierce and merciless words. The entire Handong officialdom was shrouded in their quarrels, and the atmosphere was tense and depressing.

Once, at a meeting of the Provincial Party Committee, Qi Tongwei and Li Dakang had another fierce conflict.

"Li Dakang, don't go too far. By doing this, you are destroying the stability and development of Handong." Qi Tongwei said angrily.

Li Dakang showed no weakness: "Qi Tongwei, you are the one who is destroying Handong's stability and development. You are willing to do anything for Gao Yuliang. You are committing a crime."

The two men's argument became more and more intense, and they almost came to blows. Other officials stepped forward to dissuade them, thus avoiding a bigger conflict.

However, the quarrel did not end there. The conflict between Qi Tongwei and Li Dakang had reached an irreconcilable point, and their struggle became more and more intense.

During this process, the officialdom of Handong Province fell into chaos, various rumors and hearsay spread, and people were full of worries about future developments.

However, Qi Tongwei and Li Dakang still did not stop their struggle. They both firmly believed that they were right and that they were fighting for the development of Handong and the interests of the people.

However, they did not realize that their struggle had brought great harm to Handong Province. Their actions not only undermined the order and stability of the officialdom, but also affected the lives and well-being of the people.

In the whirlpool of officialdom in Handong Province, the fierce internal struggle between Qi Tongwei and Li Dakang intensified, and the whole situation was like a dark cloud, which was so depressing that people could not breathe. And their behavior finally attracted the attention of Chen Yanshi, a respected old revolutionary.

Although Chen Yanshi is approaching retirement, his heart for the people and justice has never been extinguished. He has been paying close attention to the development of the situation in Handong Province. When he saw the chaos and harm brought to Handong by the struggle between Qi Tongwei and Li Dakang, he could no longer sit still.

That day, Chen Yanshi walked with firm steps and went straight to the Handong Provincial Government. He held a letter tightly in his hand, which was a symbol of his deep sorrow for the chaos in the officialdom and his persistent pursuit of justice.

When he walked into the meeting room, Qi Tongwei, Li Dakang, Gao Yuliang and Zhao Lichun were sitting there, and the atmosphere was tense and stalemate. Chen Yanshi walked up to them without hesitation and slammed the letter on the table.

"Look at you, what have you done!" Chen Yanshi's face turned red with anger. He pointed at the four of them and said in a trembling voice, "You have been fighting for power and profit for your own selfish interests, and have made Handong Province a mess. Do you still have any party spirit and principles, and do you have any awareness of serving the people?"

Qi Tongwei's face was gloomy. He was very dissatisfied with Chen Yanshi's sudden appearance, but he didn't dare to get angry easily. "Mr. Chen, what you said is a bit serious. We are all for the development of Handong, but we just have different opinions on some issues."

"Different opinions?" Chen Yanshi's eyes widened. "You are undermining each other and attacking each other. Your actions have seriously affected Handong's stability and development. How do the people see you?"

Li Dakang couldn't help it at this time. He stood up and said, "Mr. Chen, I admit that the fight between us may be a bit fierce, but everything I do is for work and for the economic development of Handong. I have no selfish motives."

"For work? For economic development?" Chen Yanshi sneered, "Look at you. In pursuit of political achievements, you ignore the interests of the people and blindly launch projects. Are you serving the people?"

Gao Yuliang tried to ease the atmosphere. He smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, calm down. We all know that you are doing this for the good of Handong, and we will seriously reflect on our actions. However, some things are not as simple as you think."

"It's not as simple as I thought?" Chen Yanshi interrupted him angrily, "You people are just too complicated. You treat the officialdom as your own stage, and you will do anything to achieve your own interests. Do you deserve the trust of the Party and the people by doing this?"

Zhao Lichun had been sitting there without saying anything. He was very annoyed by Chen Yanshi's arrival, but he couldn't show it. He knew that Chen Yanshi had a high prestige in Handong Province, and if he didn't handle it well, it might bring trouble to him.

"Mr. Chen, you are right. We do have some problems, and we will correct them as soon as possible." Zhao Lichun finally spoke, and his tone sounded sincere.

"Correct?" Chen Yanshi looked at him with doubt in his eyes. "This is not the first time you have said this. I hope you can truly recognize your mistakes this time and truly consider the development of Handong and the interests of the people. Otherwise, I will not let you go."

After saying this, Chen Yanshi turned around and left the meeting room. His back looked so determined and so lonely.

At this moment, Zhao Lichun looked at Chen Yanshi's receding back, his heart burning with anger. He couldn't understand how this seemingly insignificant old man could suddenly be so bold and presumptuous in front of him.
