Chapter 130: The strong dragon is difficult to suppress the head snake of the ground
Sure enough, Chen Fuchen expected it.
As soon as Liu Xian's words fell, Xia Ning'er grabbed his handle and asked sharply: "Okay, you are a deceitful governor, you keep saying that the governor's yamen has allocated a huge amount of money to resettle the victims, and what do you say about opening warehouses and releasing grain, and relieving a large number of victims."
But before I came here, I had already walked around the disaster area, and I didn't see any temporary aid stations at all, let alone the people you spent so much money to properly resettle, I only saw the ruins and the homeless victims.
Since you are all discussing the disaster relief now, well, this princess will also get involved, don't you want me to ask the court for disaster relief, okay, submit to me the details of the disaster relief account you spent this month.
You must have a ledger of the money spent on disaster relief, but I want to see how much gold you spent? How are those gold coins spent? Where is it spent? I want to see where every single dollar goes. ”
"This ...... Well...... This ......" Liu Xian was stopped by Xia Ning'er's words, and was stunned for a moment and didn't know how to answer, he had paid his huge amount of money to the second prince before, how could there be any details and account books.
The so-called huge amount of money is purely casually said, to be honest, since the earthquake, Liu Xian has not spent a penny on the victims at all, he patronizes the earthquake to squeeze the money of the victims, how can he have time to engage in disaster relief.
Originally, I wanted to take advantage of this earthquake to fill in the holes in the previous accounts under the pretext of disaster relief and relief for the victims, saying that the money was used to buy food and cotton clothes, but that was just an idea, and I hadn't had time to implement it yet, who would have thought that Ling Xia and them would come so quickly?
According to these people's thoughts, it would take at least four months for Xia Ning'er and Ling Xia to rush from the imperial capital to the disaster area, such a long time was enough for them to make false accounts, but they didn't calculate that Ling Xia and the others would arrive in advance.
Now they haven't done anything, the rescue point has not been set up, the rice porridge shop has not been built, and even the most basic tents and cotton clothes have not had time to procure, there is nothing, what do they show Xia Ning'er.
Seeing that Liu Xian was stopped by Xia Ning'er, Chen Fuchen secretly glanced at the other governors, and then, all of them stepped forward to help Liu Xian relieve the siege at the same time, only to see Chen Fuchen ask Xia Ning'er with a displeased face:
"After the disaster, we people were busy all night, and now the disaster situation has not been stabilized, and the people's hearts have not been appeased, the princess cares about the account details we want, and also checks the direction of our funds, it seems that the princess does not trust us.
Her Royal Highness the princess has been aggressive since she entered my governor's yamen, and she looks like she is superior, no matter what, we are also second-class officials in the imperial court, can the princess and the concubine be a member of the royal family, can they bully me?
Although we are not famous ministers, we are also backbone, and we need to be face-saving, if the princess thinks that we are not suitable for this position and wants to arrange for her henchmen to take office, she can replace all the twenty people we are present. ”
"Please princess and colt replace us all!"
"Please princess and colt replace us all!"
"Please princess and colt replace us all!"
When Chen Fuchen said this, he shouted in an impassioned tone, and then, Liu Xian and the others all echoed in unison, they stood in a row, and shouted to Xia Ning'er at the same time, shouting three times in a row, that posture was quite "anti-Lord".
"You ------ you----- do you think I don't dare?" Xia Ning'er was angered by everyone's actions, and her expression was a little ugly.
"Weichen knows that the princess dare, but Weichen is not afraid, because Weichen and others have a clear conscience, the princess is a member of the royal family, and now she is the governor of the territory, how can there be anything in the world that the princess does not dare to do?" After arguing, Chen Fuchen looked at Xia Ning'er with a calm face.
Xia Ning'er was anxious and angry at this time, she really wanted to get rid of the twenty bastards in front of her, and then give them all a click, but she didn't have this right, Chen Fuchen and these people were all second-grade officials, and even the officials had no right to call the shots about their appointment and dismissal.
To be able to sit in the position of governor of a province, a few of them are ordinary people, and when they reach this position, they have already woven a large network of relationships, and these people have either chosen to stand in line with a clear banner, or they have strong forces behind them.
Whether it is the governor of a province or a political envoy, they all belong to high-ranking and powerful people, therefore, the imperial court has an order that all the appointments, dismissals and promotions of officials above the second rank must be decided by the emperor himself.
Only those governors of the territory who are strong in the court and have a strong background can have an overview of all the government affairs in the territory, such as Zhenguo Gong Yingtian, the national abbot Nangong Hongru, and the nine princes of the imperial capital, all of whom have complete control over their own territory.
However, not all territorial governors can control only half or part of the territory like a few princes of Zhenguo, and some territorial governors are simply just decorations, and their power is hollowed out by their governors.
Because of the intricacies of the relationships and forces behind the governors, the governors and the governors of the territory usually live in peace with each other, the governor does not interfere in the governor's affairs, and the governor gives the governor of the territory enough face.
Even though Xia Ning'er is a princess and the governor of the territory, she can't appoint or dismiss governor-level officials at will, not to mention ten governors and ten political envoys, Chen Fuchen calculated this, so he led everyone to force the palace without fear.
"Hehe----- hehehe-------- what are you doing here?" Just when the confrontation between Chen Fuchen and Xia Ning'er was about to reach a breaking point, Ling Xia first frowned and pondered, and then he put on a smiling face and stood up with a smile.
Ling Xia walked up to Chen Fuchen, gently pressed Chen Fuchen's saluting hands, and patted the back of Chen Fuchen's hand with a friendly face, Ling Xia smiled and said: "Lord Chen misunderstood the meaning of the princess, the princess has never seen the disaster area in the imperial capital before.
So when she saw the victims on the street, she was anxious, and in a hurry, the princess's tone of speech was naturally a little heavier.
At this moment of crisis, the disaster area is in a mess, and countless victims are displaced, can Lord Chen not be lazy at this juncture, is it possible that Lord Chen is unwilling to give advice to the affected people? ”
No one expected that Ling Xia would stand up at this time, hearing that Ling Xia's tone was actually biased towards Chen Fuchen, Xia Ning'er's anger was even greater, she just wanted to go crazy, Ling Xia suddenly turned around and held her hand, and said pointedly: "Princess, you have to be calm." ”
