Struggle in Russia

Chapter 243 Persuasion (continued)

Bruning never thought that things would become like this. He was just a trivial person, but he was somehow involved in such a big event of fighting with gods. You almost hurt your wife and children, what do you call this.

After seeing off his wife and children, he sat in the carriage without saying a word. He silently thought about what had happened, and tried hard to figure out the inside story. It's more likely to pay off.

He knows that there are two choices before him now. One is to cooperate honestly with Anton. Very attractive.

But there are also many problems, because Anton's bottom line is likely to be a way to fool him into honest cooperation, and he can turn his face after the matter is done. So Bruning was still confused.

As for another way, that is to explain Anton's involvement to Petrovna. He believes that as long as he reports it himself, it should be highly appreciated by Petrovna and the people behind her.

But, this kind of admiration is useless. Apart from the fact that he can discover in advance the enemy's revision plan hidden behind the scenes and win a big victory, I'm afraid he will still kill him in the end. After all, he knows too much, and there are many things There is no way to explain to the person who handled the release order from Zhenia alone, after all, it is the prisoner who is going to be released.

That is to say, no matter what, he was determined to take the blame. If he didn't take the blame, he wouldn't be able to destroy Bestuzhev Liumin at all.

In order to prevent him from not wanting to take the blame or being arrested, the only way is to shut him up forever.

So in the end, even if Bruning helped Petrovna and the forces behind her, he might still be doomed. If so, why is he so stupid?

This turn is not particularly difficult to turn around. The reason why Bruning is so hesitant is more due to fluke psychology and unequal information.

Needless to say, there is no need to say more about luck, it happens to everyone, and it is not surprising that Bruning has it. As for the unequal information, it was because he didn't know Anton too well.

Brunin more or less knew who was behind Petrovna, because it was not difficult to guess at all. Count Shuvalov's identity and status are clearly stated there.

To Bruning, the earl was an out-and-out big shot, a giant who could blow him away with just a sneeze. He naturally knows how powerful Count Shuvalov is, but Anton's side is obscure.

Although some abilities are very good, he and his secrets can be found casually, and he dares to make trouble with Count Shuvalov, he should be really awesome.

But this awesomeness is not intuitive,

Even though Bruning thought it was a bit awesome, he still subconsciously thought that he might be a little worse than Count Shuvalov. In other words, he thought that the reason why Anton wanted to conspire secretly was because he couldn't wrestle with Count Shuvalov in an upright manner.

And this kind of impression made him unable to make up his mind, after all, no one dared to entrust his wealth and life to the weak.

This kind of hesitation lasted for a long time. If Anton didn't need Bruning to do anything for the time being, he only needed to approach Zhenia step by step to try to get the warrant, and there were no other steps.

It was at this time that the person who decided the course of the matter appeared, and this person was none other than Petrovna.

Petrovna was actually similar to Brunin. After learning about Shuvalov's true purpose, she was both excited and nervous. Unlike Bruning, she didn't have the chance to hesitate because Anton didn't go looking for her after all.

Of course, there was a reason for not looking for her, and it was a particularly correct decision. Because the relationship between Petrovna and Shuvalov is too close no matter how you look at it, she is unlikely to be as persuasive as Brunin, and she is even less likely to betray Shuvalov.

So it was meaningless to reason with her, and through Anton's observation, he found that Petrovna was a very complicated woman, her mind was much more complicated than Bruning's, and she couldn't control it at all.

If you really look for her, maybe this woman will have a lot of weird thoughts when she turns around, wanting to sell her for a price or doing other things.

Not only did Bruning know how to measure risks, but Li Xiao and Anton naturally also had to measure risks. It was undeniable that Petrovna was too risky to touch!

So how did Petrovna become a key figure leading the situation? The reason was her private meeting with Bruning. Shuvalov would definitely not contact Bruining personally, because according to his plan, Bruining would be sacrificed 100% of the time. How could he have any relationship with the rebel party?

So the task he gave Bruning can only be conveyed by Petrovna. It doesn't matter if Petrovna is just a telephony machine. The bad thing is that as I said before, this woman is too thoughtful, and she is also weighing Risk is also trying to grasp some handles that can check and balance Shuvalov. When she contacts Bruning, she is not just to spread the word.

"Felix, what's the situation with Zhenia, haven't you got the things yet?"

Bruning was undecided in his mind, how could it be possible to hand over the warrant, as long as the thing was handed over, there would be no chance of regretting it, and it was impossible for him to do so for the time being.

He could only lie and say: "That woman said that Fioning is troublesome and an important prisoner. It will be very difficult to release him!"

Petrovna frowned, and she didn't know if it was because Bruning was not able to do things well that made her unhappy, or because Zhenya realized the importance of Fioning and her reluctance to touch her hand might cause things to be difficult, making her feel that Bruning was too useless used.

But no matter what the reason is, she didn't make it clear in the end, she just encouraged: "Okay, I'll leave the matter to you, you should know the seriousness of the matter, the five hundred thousand rubles is not so easy to get .Felix, I must remind you, pay more attention and don't play other tricks!"

Bruning quickly promised: "Don't worry, I know the severity, and I will definitely work harder to make that woman submit obediently!"

Petrovna nodded slowly, and said again: "That's good, I believe in your ability, as long as you show your true skills, a mere Zhenia is nothing to worry about... But I still want to remind you , this matter is very important, it is so important that it exceeds your imagination, if you fail to do it well, you will not only be implicated, but even I will suffer together, so please don't let me down!"
