Upon hearing this, Belcher was overjoyed. The anger and resentment he had towards Ilya immediately disappeared. He felt that this deputy envoy was quite sensible.
He immediately pushed the check over again and said with a flattering smile: "Thank you very much, Your Excellency. This is not a sign of respect. I hope you will accept it without hesitation!"
Ilya pushed the check back again. It was definitely impossible to accept it. He said seriously: "I am just doing things impartially. I don't need these things. But I have to talk about it. Will the special envoy listen to my advice?
, I’m really not sure about this, after all, he is a special envoy!”
Belkh's eyes rolled, and he understood the meaning here: It is very likely that this deputy envoy is not on the same side as that old bastard Muravyov, and there is nothing he can do against that old guy, so he doesn't
Be willing to accept the money, lest you think that he will not do the work after accepting the money...
When he thought of this, Belkh became even more enlightened. For him, it would be easy as long as Ilya and Muravyov were not on the same side. Because he was not a newbie in the officialdom. Muravyov's career during this period
He also got a taste of the faction and felt that the old man was probably coming for him. In this case, it would be impossible for the two parties to live in harmony, and it was almost impossible to hope to send the special envoy away peacefully.
So from the very beginning, Belkh was prepared to fall out with Muravyov and come face to face with him. The reason why he came to Ilya was, on the one hand, to make a last-ditch effort. After all, peace is valued in the officialdom.
It's better not to be rigid.
On the other hand, he was also testing Ilya's attitude. If Ilya and Muravyov were on the same team, then he would be prepared for a tough fight. On the contrary, there was no need to be particularly nervous.
Why did Belhe feel much more relaxed as soon as Ilya expressed his attitude? The reason is that the special envoy is not an imperial envoy. The special envoy comes to inspect only on behalf of the emperor to inspect the work. To put it bluntly, he has the right to make crooked reports in front of the emperor. As for these
Whether the emperor accepts or accepts the report depends on the emperor's wishes.
The imperial envoys are different. In addition to having the same ability to twist their lips and wear small shoes in front of the emperor, they have certain powers of disposal. In other words, the imperial envoys will not only scold you if they see you unhappy, but they will also really know how to do it.
Cut you off!
Therefore, grassroots officials are more afraid of imperial envoys, who can make you look good on the spot. As for special envoys, it takes time to report them back and forth, not to mention that the people who are reported are not completely powerless to resist.
You can activate relations at the same time to criticize the envoy.
Especially now that Ilya, the deputy envoy, has different opinions from Muravyov, then Belkh can make more fuss. At least when Nicholas I asked, he could still use Ilya as a shield.
Said: "Your Majesty, look! Your deputy has said that the old guy has gone too far!"
Especially for a frontier official like Belkh, who has a deep and strong relationship with him, he can use Ilya as the deputy envoy to make more fuss when he disagrees with Muraviyov, and even counter Muraviyov.
Husband and an army.
In fact, this was what he was planning to do. After Belch returned to his headquarters, he immediately wrote a letter to his colleagues in St. Petersburg, saying that he was going to fight back.
Belkh felt that if he didn't make trouble for this old guy Muravyov this time, he would be really sorry for the injustice he had suffered for more than a month. Not only did he want to take away the old guy's title of special envoy, but he also wanted to beat him up.
, let this old guy’s official career come to an end.
I have to say that Berkh is quite ruthless. Muravyov just urged him to do his job conscientiously. Even if his starting point was a little bit wrong, there was nothing wrong with the situation and theory. Just imagine.
If Belkh does his job honestly, can Muravyov keep finding faults with him?
If a fly doesn't bite a flawless egg, it's because Berghe himself was not strong enough to strike the iron, so he was forced to suffer a lot. But not only did this man not repent at all, but he was ready to beat him up, which shows what kind of character he has.
Belkh is already ready for a counterattack. On the one hand, he will wait for a reply from St. Petersburg. On the other hand, he will not continue to be beaten passively and let Muravyov torment him. Later he will summon
A group of close friends held a meeting to secretly discuss how to deal with Muravyov.
Putting aside the little tricks on Belhe's part, I turned around and looked at Ilya. He was a real person. He didn't know that the fundamental purpose of Belhe's visit to him was to test him. No matter what the result of the test was, he would not
I will give up with Muravyov.
Ilya thought that Belkh would be waiting for news from him, and that only if it was unfavorable for him to persuade Muravyov, the two sides would fight. So when Belkh convened a small meeting with his confidants, he found Muravyov again.
Raviyov did the final work of persuasion.
"Your Excellency, I don't know why you have been staring at Lieutenant General Belhe these days, but I know that Lieutenant General Belhe's patience has a limit. If you continue to chase and beat them, they will not be captured...
…Listen to me and stop, while there is still room for change, otherwise something big will really happen!"
When he said this, Ilya's attitude was particularly sincere, because after getting along with him for a period of time, he basically knew what kind of person Muravyov was. He also admired this veteran and felt that
If only half or even a fraction of the officials in the Russian officialdom were like Muravyov, then Russia would definitely not be what it is now.
Muravyov was also a little surprised by Ilya's sudden visit. During this period of time together, Ilya not only got to know him, but he also got to know the temperament of this handsome deputy envoy. Generally speaking, it was pretty good, not that kind of thing.
Conscientious conservatives are just a little confused, unable to figure out what the righteousness is, and have no faith and perseverance in their lives.
So he deliberately smiled and asked: "What? You accepted Berger's money to become a lobbyist?"
Ilya answered frankly: "I didn't charge money, I don't charge money like this. I think you really want to do something for the Black Sea Fleet. There are too few people like you, but...but you
Too anxious, rushing for success is not a good thing!"
Seeing Ilya's sincere look, Muravyov laughed heartily: "You are really interesting. How do you know that I am eager for success? Can't I just make a decision and then act?"
"
Ilya shook his head and said: "It doesn't matter whether you plan and act later. In my opinion, this is still an egg striking a stone. Belhe is stronger than you think, and he is not that easy to deal with!"
