Struggle in Russia

Even if Peter Balek was unhappy, Shuvalov would not dare to confront Uvarov. Since the boss had ordered him to cooperate with Shuvalov, he would simply let Shuvalov toss with the authority.

Of course, he should observe, and he should pay attention to it. One is to prevent Shuvalov from being pitted, and the other is to see if he can hold Shuvalov’s pigtail to prevent him from getting worse in the future. The land does not put itself in its eyes.

Now Archduke Constantine has made it clear that he is looking for Shuvalov, and at first glance, it seems that the person who came is unkind. In fact, Peter Barek is a little bit happy in his heart, wishing that Archduke Constantine would teach Shuvalov a lesson.

So he just gave his adjutant an understatement: “If you invite Count Shuvalov here, you will say that the Grand Duke is waiting for him.”

Having said this, he didn’t ask what Duke Constantine really wanted to do, he just invited Duke Constantine into the reception room with a smile, and then began to serve tea and snacks, a savory pie. .

Peter Bareck’s behavior made Grand Duke Constantine frown secretly, because he didn’t understand what medicine was sold in this gourd. As long as you are not a fool, you can tell that he is asking for trouble. As Shuvalov’s accomplice, you should help cover up and try to come. You must express dissatisfaction and resistance at the worst.

But Peter Balek is good, it’s all about watching the show and watching the excitement, even for fear that the excitement is not big enough.

Archduke Constantine naturally didn’t know that this was because Peter Balek and Shuvalov had trouble dealing with each other, and often tore each other. He thought the other party was confident!

As for why he was so confident, Grand Duke Constantine subconsciously started to make up his mind: Could it be that the other party has seen through his arrangement and has cleaned the tail of his hands, so he is not afraid of pulling his tail? Or maybe they still have a hole card and are confident that he can win a big victory even if he takes a challenge against Shuvalov?

Grand Duke Constantine was full of problems in his mind. He regretted it a little at this moment. He felt that he should listen to Viscount Prozolov’s advice and make more preparations instead of being so impulsive.

This is the weakness of the Archduke Constantine’s character, irritability and easy arrogance and underestimation of the enemy, and then when he encounters a little problem, he begins to be suspicious and shake his beliefs. In history, as long as he can give a little bit of strength and persistence, Alexander II’s reforms will not end in such a hurry.

It is a pity that he is such a person, especially now that he is still young, it is even more unbearable.

When Grand Duke Constantine sat on the sofa, he felt that there were nails in the sofa cushion, and he felt uncomfortable to sit on, and he even felt awkward all over. After a while, he asked Peter Balek again:

“What official duties did Count Shuvalov do?”

In fact, Peter Balek didn’t know what Shuvalov was doing. Before Count Uvarov’s instructions came, the other party still had concerns about giving him a three-pointer. But as soon as Count Uvarov’s latest instructions arrived, Shuvalov, who had obtained the Shangfang sword, completely ignored him, and would not tell him what he did, and even gave him instructions regularly. Makes go round and round.

But these ugliest Peter Balek would certainly not tell Grand Duke Constantine, he pretended to answer calmly: “It’s just some official business, because of the Bestuzhev Lumin case, many people in Kiev’s third department were implicated. , Resulting in a lot of work that could not be carried out normally, and it could only make Count Shuvalov work harder.”

Grand Duke Constantine wanted to roll his eyes, because he didn’t believe a word of such nonsense. The work of Kiev’s third part was indeed affected, but he didn’t believe that Shuvalov would work so kindly. The establishment of this servant is to ride without a tiger in the mountains, this is a presumptuous grab for power!

“Really?” Grand Duke Constantine said haha, as if he didn’t care: “Then I will work hard for Count Shuvalov, but I remember the count seems to be involved in the case, right? Petrovna’s problem he has always been I haven’t explained it clearly, so it’s better to avoid suspicion at this time?”

Peter Balek was taken aback and glanced suspiciously at Grand Duke Constantine. He couldn’t figure out what the other party meant by saying these words. He was just questioning or vomiting, or venting his dissatisfaction, or had no deep meaning?

Peter Balek naturally knew that Shuvalov had not clearly explained his relationship with Petrovna. It stands to reason that everyone involved in the case should be taken first, or at least stopped working first.

But who makes Kiev the conservative world now? He, the governor, only needs to say that Shuvalov has no problem. Then who dares to say that he has a problem?

Of course, Grand Duke Constantine might say so, but he can’t listen. It’s you who let us do this this time, how could it be possible to listen to your enemy!

Peter Balek replied indifferently: “I have investigated carefully. Although Count Shuvalov has some affair with Petrovna, the relationship is not close, and naturally it has nothing to do with the case.”

At this point, Peter Balek paused suddenly, probably because he felt that he was endorsing Shuvalov’s innocence by saying this, but not that he was worried that Petrovna’s old account would be turned out to prove Shuvalov’s innocence. The husband’s involvement in it will make him very passive. It’s because he felt that he, a great governor, would make such a guarantee for an inconspicuous subordinate. UU reading www.uukanshu.com is really shameless.

A little unhappy, he paused and said, “At least for the time being, your Excellency Earl is still worthy of trust. If it is proved that he is really involved in it in the future, I will definitely hold him severely accountable and let him be punished as he deserves!”

Grand Duke Constantine is the second monk who is confused. He doesn’t know what Peter Barek meant. He slapped his chest so swearingly to make sure, and then took the words back in a blink of an eye. The feelings are good for you. It’s all done by one person, right?

“Then let’s wait and see!”

The somewhat unhappy Grand Duke Constantine stabs a sentence, and then tentatively said: “Your Excellency, has there been any new developments in the case recently? Have Fionen and his comrades been caught?”

Well, this is the pain in the hearts of Peter Balek and Shuvalov, because even if they dig three feet to find someone, they didn’t find Fioren’s shadow. This person seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.

The fact that the case of Fionen cannot be found is not a perfect solution, and even this will become a huge stain on his political achievements. After all, he is the governor of Ukraine, but he can’t even stand a criminal. !
