Seeing that Heshen was interested in this job, the civil servants who were ready to take action became mute.
Mr. He, why is such a heavyweight player like you taking action in person?
Li Qian was also a little speechless. If He Shen was asked to provide disaster relief, wouldn't that be like throwing mice into a rice vat?
If he is not greedy, who is?
Not only Li Qian knew about it, but many people in the court also knew about Hesheng's urine.
For example... Left Prime Minister Yan Song.
He Shen's face was heavy, and so was his.
All the money and food for disaster relief came from the Ministry of Household Affairs, and what He Shen embezzled was the money from his Ministry of Household Affairs!!
When he thought that He Shen was about to have a large amount of income, and that this income would come from him, Yan Song felt like there were tens of millions of ants crawling around him...
Li Qian didn't want to see He Shen exploiting the victims too hard. He looked at the ministers below and said helplessly: "The He Qing family is too important, and the capital cannot live without him. In addition to the He Qing family, there is also the Qing family. Are you willing to go to disaster relief?"
He Shen was a little confused and looked up at Li Qian.
Your Majesty, don’t you love me anymore? Or did I give too little?
The civil servants were also startled and started to make a commotion again.
What does this mean? Does your Majesty not want Mr. He to go?
Doesn’t this mean that we also have a chance?
The minister in the scarlet robe looked at me, and I looked at you, and he was back to the state of being ready to move.
Just when someone wanted to get up, another person stood up in front.
"Your Majesty, I am worried about the victims. I can't eat during the day and can't sleep at night. I am also willing to go to Xingyang and other counties to help the victims on your behalf."
Li Qian was overjoyed at first, but when he saw this person, his scalp suddenly felt numb.
Good guy, Yan Song.
How can this guy be better than He Shen??
The civil servants behind were also speechless. Is the competition for the job of an imperial envoy for disaster relief so fierce these days?
One is the Minister of Civil Affairs and the other is the Left Prime Minister. They both want to rush there??
When He Shen saw that it was Yan Song who was quarreling with him, he immediately became angry and said to himself that I haven't settled the accounts with you about the nine-vegetable banquet yesterday.
Do you know that I lost my lord with my subordinates?
"Your Majesty, at this time of crisis, Yan Xianggui is the left prime minister. He is the anchor of stability in the hearts of all officials. He should sit at the center of the court, manage the household logistics, and coordinate the exchanges."
"Let me do such an obscene thing as disaster relief!"
Faced with Heshen's attack, Yan Song refused to give in. Seeing Heshen greedy for money was even more uncomfortable for him than losing money himself.
I saw Yan Song saying in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, as the Prime Minister of the Left, it is only when I go to the disaster area that the court pays more attention to me. If you are such an important minister as Lord He, you should stay in the capital."
Yan Song especially emphasized the word "important minister" and continued:
"With Mr. He sitting in the official department, all officials can feel at ease, the people can feel at ease, and the victims of the disaster can feel comfortable."
Seeing Yan Song being so disrespectful, He Shen became a little anxious: "If Prime Minister Yan doesn't go to the disaster area, it will be good for him and the victims will be good."
Yan Song stared at him without giving in: "Going to the disaster area with your Excellency is a harm to the court and the victims..."
"Stop! Stop! Stop!"
Li Qian helplessly held his forehead and said three words "stop" in succession.
He looked at the two people speechlessly: "Both of you are brave ministers, but you are also important ministers of the imperial court. In my opinion, the imperial court cannot do without you!"
Is it okay to leave this disaster relief work to others?
Li Qian continued to look at the civil servants below: "Apart from Prime Minister Yan and the He Qing family, which Qing family is willing to go to disaster relief?"
His eyes were actually looking at Wei Zheng, but for some reason, Wei Zheng didn't speak.
When other civil servants saw that the two big bosses were arguing like this, they didn't dare to get involved, and they all acted like cowards.
The military attaches were just having fun. Daqian had no rules for military attaches to take charge of disaster relief. This job had always been the exclusive domain of civilian officials.
Seeing that the civil servants were silent, Li Qian had no choice but to turn his eyes back to these two people.
Both of these two people are greedy, so there seems to be no difference, right?
"Alas~"
Li Qian sighed softly, with a look of reluctance: "The two Qings are the palm of my hand and the back of my hand. How can I part with them?"
"Your Majesty, I still think that Prime Minister Yan is mature and prudent and is more suitable to be in charge of the capital..."
"Your Majesty, Mr. He is an important minister of the country. The capital cannot be without him for a day..."
This time it was not just the two of them, but officials from the He Party and the Yan Party below also started to join the fight.
Yan Maoqing, the minister of Dali Temple who was late today, glared at Mr. He's back angrily and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I thought that Mr. He had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, so naturally he couldn't leave the capital easily. On the contrary, Prime Minister Yan has been in charge of the household department for many years and is experienced and experienced, so he is more suitable for disaster relief. "
On the other side, Su Ling'a, the right minister of the Ministry of Industry, said: "Your Majesty, Prime Minister Yan is the Prime Minister of the Left. He has been in charge of the country for many years and is more important than Mount Tai in the hearts of the ministers. The court cannot be without the Prime Minister of the Left for a day. It is better to let Prime Minister Yan stay in the capital. Let's go to disaster relief with the adults..."
For a while, the Qianyang Palace was buzzing and chirping, and it became noisy again.
"stop!"
Unable to bear it, Li Qian hurriedly made a decision: "Everyone of the Qing family, stop talking! Since the Qing family and Prime Minister Yan are so insistent, let them go together!"
"ah?"
Yan Song and He Shen looked confused.
The palms and backs of your hands are all flesh, right? If you want to cut them, cut them in one piece, right?
The civil and military officials were also confused and did not understand how His Majesty the Emperor could come up with such a ridiculous solution.
For the first time, they hoped that His Majesty the Emperor would have some courage and make decisions.
Don’t just mess around!
This was the case when we selected military generals to go on an expedition last time. Is this still the case when selecting people to provide disaster relief? Are you too outrageous?
But Li Qian didn't think this method was outrageous.
He would call it a flash of inspiration.
As the saying goes, fellow travelers are enemies.
Since both of them like to be greedy, they cannot deal with each other.
So is there a possibility that they will have the effect of supervising each other?
Of course, Li Qian also knew that it was unlikely.
But even if these two people cooperate sincerely and are greedy for money, the lower limit is there.
They are greedy, but they should all be well-informed people, and they won't be so greedy that they force the victims to rebel, right?
Yan Song and He Shen fell silent, and all the officials were also silenced. Everyone didn't know what to say.
If you have to agree, this matter is really ridiculous. It is already outrageous to send out one important minister for disaster relief. Now to send two out together is simply the most absurd.
But what should I say if I object?
Of course there is no need to say anything more about officials from the Harmonious and Strict Party, but what about the others?
If you agree with one, you will inevitably offend the other.
Wei Zheng frowned and his eyes kept shifting between He Shen and Yan Song, as if he was considering which one would cause less harm to the victims.
Qin Hui also remained silent, but his gaze was a little more expectant...
Seeing the silence of the officials, Li Qian on the dragon throne nodded with satisfaction. He just thought of another idea, which could prevent the two men from working together to commit corruption to a certain extent.
"Go with the Qing family and Yan Tong, but one of you will go to the south of the river bank, and the other will go to the north of the river bank. When the disaster relief is over, just see which of the two Qing families has rescued more victims!"
Having said this, Li Qian paused for a moment.
He was thinking about what kind of reward he could use as a reward to stimulate these two people.
