Muravyov always talked about Nicholas I, showing concern for the country and the people, which made Ilya very painful. Although he instinctively felt that something was wrong, he could not say that Muravyev
Wyjov was wrong. He could only reply dully:
"Even so, we still have to be sensible and cannot overstep our authority. After all, Lieutenant General Belkh is the commander of the Black Sea Fleet!"
Muravyov could naturally hear the warning in Ilya's words, but he was an old man with a face thicker than the city wall. He agreed in a hmm, but in fact it was time to
It doesn't matter what it is, it doesn't matter at all.
This is the ability of an old man in the officialdom. Only an old man like Muravyov knows that sometimes you can't be too concerned about face. If you are like Ilya and can't let it go, then sincerely
He will be deceived and perfunctory. The people below have ten thousand ways to perfunctory things. He still thinks that Ilya is not too annoying and has not done any harm to him!
After only two or three days of this, Ilya finally came around. Muravyov said he agreed, but in fact he just went his own way and completely ignored his advice. This made Ilya even more distressed.
What's more, the old man's attitude towards him was so good that he couldn't get angry even if he wanted to. It made him dumbfounded.
Ilya just couldn't laugh or cry, but Belhe was really crying and could hardly cry. It was pretty much what Ilya had thought before. According to Belhe's original intention, that was to deal with Mu Mu casually first.
Raviyov, just let the old man coax him away and that will be it.
But the old man was left behind by Da Ma Jin Dao. He patrolled everywhere like an overseer every day, forcing him to do all the things he didn't want to do. This made him feel so frustrated that he almost wanted to hit the wall.
Belkh endured it again and again, and now he finally couldn't bear it anymore. He really couldn't stand Muravyov using chicken feathers as arrows, and he couldn't bear the old man's interference in his authority.
In the past few days, he had also hinted to Muravyov in a subtle way, telling the old man that he was not a floating grass without a backstage. He just wanted the old man to have the same meaning. But no matter how he hinted, Muravyov just pretended not to see it and still
I do my own thing.
So he finally understood that it was impossible to expect to do the old man's job and get him to get out, but he couldn't say goodbye to the special envoy sent by Nicholas I. He didn't have the power, and this time Nicholas I sent
There was no time limit set when Muravyov and Ilya came out. After all, Nicholas I didn't know whether or when the war would start with Turkey. He threw it to Muravyov just to familiarize him with it.
If the environment is well prepared, it is naturally impossible to set a time for him to go back.
And this is a very difficult thing for Berghe. He doesn't even have an excuse to see off the guests. The special envoy is staying in Sevastopol for inspection. What can you do? Can you still be driven away?
In the hope that Muravyov would leave on his own, Belkh knew it was impossible, so he bribed the old man to let him go. The old man only took the benefits but refused to leave. In desperation, Belkh could only find Ilya as his deputy envoy.
Figured out a way.
In his opinion, if he could get through to Ilya and let Ilya take the initiative to request another location for inspection, then Muraviev couldn't just pretend he didn't hear it, right?
"Your Excellency, Special Envoy, have you gotten used to your life recently? Sevastopol is not as good as St. Petersburg. The conditions are very difficult. I really neglect your Excellency!"
Ilya looked at Belkh with a mocking smile on his face. He knew very well what this person was here to do. He must have come to do his job and asked him to help get Muravyov out of the house as soon as possible.
This kind of thing is too common in Russian officialdom. The only thing that is not so common is that the tribute or condolences sent by Belkh is really too much, a full fifty thousand rubles, which is really not a small amount of money!
Just from this amount, you can see how miserable Belcher was, otherwise it would be impossible to be so generous.
However, Ilya did not intend to accept the money. It was not that it was too little, but that it was too dirty and too hot. He was not a particularly genuine person, and it was not that he had confiscated similar money before, but the money given by Belkh
He really didn't want to accept it.
Obviously, Belkh's salary alone would not be enough to raise the fifty thousand rubles for ten years. If he had not been corrupt, the fifty thousand rubles would not be available at all. Ilya only needs to think that these filial piety are using the barracks and defense of the Black Sea Fleet.
He felt disgusted by the fortifications.
Doesn't this kind of money mean eating the flesh and blood of the Black Sea Fleet officers? Although he is not a good person, he still has a basic conscience, especially after seeing the actual situation of the Black Sea Fleet officers, he really can't bear it
.
What's more, the money is too hot. Muravyov, the special envoy, tormented Belkh so recklessly and refused to stop even after he had tried to persuade him several times. This was obviously for Belkh.
It means that they are not trying to extort some filial piety, but they have something inside. Maybe this will involve a fight between factions, or other very serious things. Ilya's consistent purpose is not to cause trouble and not to be in the limelight.
Resolutely not to do anything, and resolutely not to care about things that should not be taken care of.
If he took Belkh's money, he would be really involved, and he would definitely have to confront Muravyov. He wouldn't be so rash. He just wants to be a sullen deputy.
and returned to St. Petersburg safely.
So he pushed the money back without hesitation: "It is my duty to come to Sevastopol to inspect the work, and the hard work is also deserved. As the saying goes, I take the emperor's salary and share the emperor's worries. I took the country
To get a salary, you have to do good work, that’s all.”
Belhe's heart suddenly went cold. He had thought that Ilya would be easier to talk to. Even if he is not easy to talk to, he should be easy to talk to for the sake of fifty thousand rubles. But who would have thought that this deputy envoy was so incompetent that he could not open his mouth.
So I rejected his good intentions because I wanted to make things happen!
Suddenly, Belkh felt angry. Muravyov had already made him angry. He couldn't bear it for a moment. He originally wanted to ask the deputy envoy to come forward and tell the old man to go away peacefully, but now it seems that the deputy envoy
You mean, it seems like these two guys are working together?
Belkh suddenly felt that he had no choice but to confront Muravyov and Ilya. Just when he was cruel, Ilya spoke again: "But I also know what you mean by coming.
Yes, the special envoy has been a little too much recently, I am going to have a talk with him so that we can end the inspection work in Sevastopol and go to the next stop!"
