Struggle in Russia

v3 Chapter 13 - Arkadi

Li Xiao didn’t know that there were so many interesting stories in St. Petersburg. He also heard news of the tension between Russia and Turkey in Bucharest. Especially after receiving a letter from Lebeuf, he was kind of like rain and wind. feel.

Because according to his estimation, the full-scale conflict between Russia and Turkey should erupt later, because there are actually some key figures who have not walked to the center of the stage at this point in time.

Take Napoleon III, for example. At this time, he had just launched a coup to amend the constitution, but he has not yet restored and claimed the emperor. This means that he has no urgent reason to divert his domestic attention, and he should not immediately turn his face with Russia.

He estimated that Napoleon III had to become emperor if he really wanted to do it. Besides, even though Nicholas I pressed on Turkey step by step, he did not issue an ultimatum. To fight a war, he would have to wait until the ultimatum was invalid, right?

He estimated that there should be some time, but he did not expect that Nicholas I’s ambition was so strong and sudden that he was not satisfied with letting Bulgaria be self-governed. This was really a bit harder to fill.

Moreover, he himself also has things to be busy with, the issue of railway construction, the issue of continuing reforms, and the vaguely heard some bad news.

“You mean someone in the market is specifically inquiring about railway equity and French investment?”

Haji Straka’s report attracted Li Xiao’s attention. The former, as the leader of the Bucharest local intelligence network created by Li Xiao, monitors the disturbances in Bucharest.

Although the spies of Haji Straka are not as well-known as the third Duke of Aldorf, they can detect more subtle information with more secret identities.

“Yes, there are a group of people who are inquiring about relevant news around the railway company. The situation is not clear for the time being, I did not alarm them!”

Li Xiao frowned. If there are only one or two people inquiring about related news, the problem is not serious, but according to Haji Straka, there are a large number of people inquiring around, which is a bit tricky.

After thinking about it, Li Xiao said: “You should continue to stare at them, especially pay attention to who their upline is, and figure out who instigated them. Also, be careful not to disturb them. Don’t grab them when you are not a last resort. people!”

Haji Straka nodded. Although he wanted to deal with these young children with a sharp knife, Li Xiao did not dare not listen to Li Xiao’s instructions, because his very powerful sister repeatedly told him to be very careful, Li Xiao explained. Task, because sometimes he really doesn’t rub the sand in his eyes. And even if she is Alexei’s lover, Alexei may not necessarily listen to her in Li Xiao’s affairs.

Haji Straka left the Gendarmerie Headquarters and ordered the coachman to return to the Bucharest Police Department. As the Deputy Director of the Police Department, he had a lot of business, and he had to go back and explain to those subordinates so that they should be more careful. There was a mistake.

“Diomede? After your people have been active for so long, have they found out such a name?”

On the other side of the city, Vladimir expressed serious dissatisfaction with the slowness and inefficiency of Christine Stilbey and Konstantin Gika. It took a long time to get a name, and I don’t know if the owner of the name is righteous. What’s the use?

This made Vladimir very unhappy. He felt that the Wallachians were a bunch of useless waste, and they couldn’t handle even the smallest things. This made him miss St. Petersburg more and more.

Although he has only one earl title in St. Petersburg, it is nothing to hundreds of princes, but anyone who is a little bit informed will know who he is. Although he is unlikely to run wild, but to do something is a word of effort.

In Bucharest, he couldn’t even find anyone who could help him get things done. This gap really made him unable to accept.

At this time, his secretary Arkady suggested in a low voice: “Although these Wallachiians are useless, none of us are available for the time being, so don’t be too harsh on them, just give them a little beat.”

Vladimir took a look at Arkady, and he paid more attention to this secretary, because this was a talent specially assigned to him by his father Nicholas I. Don’t think he is just a secretary, but who knows if he is? Where is the hidden imperial minister?

Anyway, Vladimir dare not really treat Arkady as a secretary. He has always been courteous, so he quickly said: “Since you have interceded for them, then you are giving them a chance. But you can’t always be unavailable. Do you have any suggestions for this?”

Arkady slightly lowered his jaw, and then replied respectfully: “You have a good reputation. I have some reliable friends who have been doing nothing lately. If you believe me, I can ask them to come and serve you.”

Vladimir naturally agreed. He felt that Arkady’s friends were definitely not idle characters. Maybe they were similar to his identity. They were all daddy’s spies. Of course he must use such a ruthless character, not only to use it, but also to use it!

He immediately replied: “Well, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com Bucharest City Defense Command has a few key positions that just happen to be vacant. The candidates you recommend must be reliable, as long as they are willing to come and take the post immediately!”

Arkady left Vladimir’s office contentedly. His evaluation of the illegitimate son of His Majesty the Tsar was actually not high. He felt that this man had neither great ambitions nor special talents. The whole was a red-painted toilet. Embroidered pillow-like figures.

But such a person is his favorite master, because he is empty-headed and must rely on him to make suggestions, and the background is hard and not afraid of accidents. The most important thing is that he is greedy enough. If Vladimir is not greedy and does not have too much desire, it is not easy to control.

Arkady has already begun to imagine a bright future. For people like him who can only take refuge in the third spy, Vladimir is the stairs to the top of the future!

Yes, this secretary is the secret agent of the third book, specifically, the secret agent selected by Nicholas I to assist those illegitimate children and secretly help him monitor key ministers. There are many such spies, almost every important courtier is around or near, especially those around the border officials.

Without the help of these eyes, Nicholas I would feel uneasy sleeping, and I have to say that the czar who played with power to the extreme is really insecure!
