Struggle in Russia

Old Igor really couldn't think of any advantages of Wallachia and Moldavia. What else is there besides the Romanian natives who have been assimilated by the Turkish barbarians for hundreds of years?

Oh, and malaria and all sorts of slushy swampy environments, and Dracula and vampire legends.

Anyway, old Igor didn't like Romania very much, and he didn't like the Romanian natives who were making noise against Russia. In his opinion, those guys are gloomy, bloody and grotesque, and they are all a group of psychopaths.

Count Rostovtsev asked: "Do you know who the commander of the Black Sea Fleet is?"

Old Igor shook his head.

"Admiral Lazarev!"

Count Rostovtsev said again: "Do you know that the admiral admires your little master very much?"

Old Igor suddenly showed a dazed expression. Li Xiao now holds the rank of the navy, and he is also under the command of the navy when he goes to Wallachia. It should not be too pleasant to be covered by an immediate superior who appreciates him.

Immediately the old man was satisfied, and said with a smile on his face, "Count, I misunderstood you. It's because you have thought carefully."

Count Rostovtsev didn't care either. He even preferred the straightforward old Igor. Dealing with this kind of person was better than fighting wits with old Adlerberg every day.

Speaking of the old Adlerberg, at this moment, the old fox probably reacted quickly and fell into the pit, right?

The news of old Adlerberg in the Winter Palace was still very well informed, just as Count Rostovtsev expected, the old fox soon realized that something was wrong.

"What? Your Majesty just called Grand Duke Constantine to reprimand him? He just transferred the bastard? Why?"

Countess Lukyanovna couldn't answer this question. She was just a girl, so she didn't know what Nicholas I would do.

Old Adlerberg thought for a while and asked: "Before His Majesty reprimanded Grand Duke Constantine, did you meet anyone?"

Countess Lukyanovna thought for a while and replied: "Count Rostovtsev and Duke Ordorf have been here."

Old Adlerberg suddenly fell into deep thought. These two people are capable of changing Nicholas I's thinking, who are they? But neither of these two belonged to the Grand Duke Constantine, so they had nothing to do with the Grand Duke, so there was no reason to intervene?

he has no clue,

He could only ask again: "Do you know what those two men talked about with His Majesty?"

Countess Lukyanovna smiled wryly. She is just a court maid. Although she is well-versed in the news network, she really doesn't know everything. Especially when it concerns Nicholas I and Grand Duke Constantine, no one dares to speak out when they hear and see something!

Old Adlerberg sent Countess Lukyanovna away a little anxiously, feeling very uneasy in his heart. He knew that he might be in big trouble this time, and if he didn't figure it out, he might suffer heavy losses.

After pondering for a while, he sent someone to inform Varvara Neridova, hoping to meet this magical woman as soon as possible.

"See him?" Varvara Neridova asked Count Kleinmichel.

The earl said decisively: "It's best not to see, that earl is involved in a big incident, it's very troublesome!"

Varvara Nelidova asked: "How troublesome is it?"

Count Kleinmichel showed a serious look, and replied: "Very, very troublesome!"

Nelidova nodded slightly, and continued to ask: "Why? Can you tell me?"

Count Klein Michel was a little entangled. It stands to reason that he shouldn't tell Nelidova why, because it involves the royal family and the country's major policies. But before he hardened his heart to refuse, he just glanced at Neridova's eyes, and he softened quickly.

After a long while, Earl Kleinmichel sighed and said, "There has been some unhappiness between Grand Duke Constantine and Crown Prince Alexander recently, you know that?"

Neridova nodded.

"Vladimir Adlerberg is a member of the crown prince's party. In order to help the crown prince, he recently used some means to secretly attack the Grand Duke Constantine... After the incident, he still pretended to be an outsider in front of the Winter Palace. When I was holy, I secretly... and made a fool of Grand Duke Constantine..."

Count Kleinmikhl looked around, and seeing no outsiders, he lowered his voice and whispered to Nelidova: "But Count Rostovtsev saw through all this. Count Kimir Adlerberg's various little actions were summarized and reported to His Majesty..."

Nelidova suddenly realized: "That's why Your Majesty is so angry! No wonder you suddenly canceled the appointment with me. It turned out that such a big event happened!"

She asked curiously, "Then how does His Majesty plan to punish the Earl?"

Count Kleinmichel wryly smiled and said: "The problem is that His Majesty has no plans to punish him for the time being!"

This time it was Neridova's turn to be surprised: "Why?!"

Count Klein Michel didn't know why. If he were Nicholas I, he would definitely make old Adlerberg look good, not to mention kicking him out of the Winter Palace, at least he would have to be fined for one year's salary.

But Nicholas I did not express anything, no punishment, no reprimand, nothing, as if this incident never happened from the beginning to the end.

This made Count Kleinmichel puzzled. He suspected that the reason why Nicholas I had not expressed anything for the time being was probably waiting to settle the score after the fall. Old Adlerberg should have a bad future, so he prevented Neridova from contacting the old fox.

After all, in politics, the unknown threat is the scariest threat! Never risk it!

Neridova was not as nervous as Earl Kleinmichel. This woman was much more courageous. She had no earls or ministers of court affairs in her eyes, only money.

"Why do you still want to see him! Are you crazy?"

Neridova smiled and gave Earl Kleinmichel a sweet kiss, and said: "Don't worry, I know what's in my heart. The earl probably smelled something and found that something was wrong. He came to me to find out the news. of."

She giggled and said, "As you said just now, His Majesty has no plans to punish him for the time being. That is to say, he will be fine in a short time. If so, how can such a bully be let go?"

Count Kleinmichel was so surprised that he was speechless. He had a deeper understanding of Neridova's "bad" character. This woman was so courageous that it was frightening. Dare to cheat!

While tidying up her appearance, Neridova gave Earl Kleinmichel a wink, and said with a smile, "Why not? According to you, he is the minister of court affairs, isn't he not good enough for a long time, haha..."
