Struggle in Russia

What did Count Rostovtsev say that caused Peter Balek to stun in an instant?

Very simple, he said: “This is what your Majesty asked me to convey to you. Your Majesty also asked me to scold you. It’s best to use a whip to teach you a lesson, so that you can understand how to be a governor! ”

Peter Barek didn’t dare to have any opinion on Nicholas I. Even if Nicholas I called him a stupid pig, he could only recognize him, and he even had to learn two pig barks obediently, and see if he could. Amuse that majesty.

Count Rostovtsev knows Peter Balek’s ideas too well. He doesn’t have much skill and has a lot of bad temper, but he is humble and humble like a pug in the face of imperial power. It’s very easy to deal with such people. He holds a Shangfang sword directly. Just draw your face.

Count Shuvalov was dealt with in threes and fives, which allowed everyone present to see Count Rostovtsev’s tactics and decisive killing. Everyone present, including Grand Duke Konstantin, sucked backwards. Take a breath.

“His Royal Highness!”

When Grand Duke Constantine was still thinking about how to beat Shuvalov, the drowning dog, with a victory pursuit, Count Rostovtsev suddenly called him.

“Count!” He stood at attention quickly, for fear of upsetting the imperial master, “What’s your order?”

“You are serious,” Count Rostovtsev replied lightly, “You know, the most important reason your Majesty sent me to investigate this case is that you are involved in this case. This is a huge scandal. Your Majesty is heartbroken for not being able to sleep at this night…”

Grand Duke Constantine hurriedly lowered his head and confessed: “Sorry, it was my mistake. I didn’t know the people and I was tired of my father.”

Count Rostovtsev smiled and said, “It is good that you have this knowledge. If your majesty knows it, it will be a little more comfortable. But before that we must first figure out what is going on in this case, you say yes. ?”

Grand Duke Constantine looked at Count Rostovtsev suspiciously. He didn’t know what the latter meant, but he felt a little bad instinctively.

Sure enough, Count Rostovtsev said immediately: “You have seen it, and I am going to investigate the case thoroughly. Everything before that must be started from scratch. The suspects must be re-screened and the case must be re-organized. For the sake of fairness and justice, Shuvalov The earl has been suspended for review, and as another related person in the case…”

Archduke Konstantin probably guessed what Count Rostovtsev wanted to do, and he was furious about it, and he was about to explode, but Count Rostovtsev still made him honest with just one sentence. .

I saw him pointing to Grand Duke Nicholas and Grand Duke Mikhail who had watched the white play for a while and said: “You have also seen it. Because you are involved in the case, your Majesty has to send two grand dukes to supervise the case. , You should know the nature of this, right?”

Grand Duke Constantine stopped speaking, he still didn’t know why this was?

Count Rostovtsev said again: “But you are a prince after all, and you have important responsibilities. It is a bit inappropriate to suspend your work. Then, let Duke Mikhail supervise you nearby and assist you in handling your daily official duties. How about this dispelling your suspicion and closing up those tongue-chewing mouths?”

Grand Duke Constantine looked at Grand Duke Mikhail, and then at Count Rostovtsev. He knew that he had to agree if he didn’t agree, and he didn’t need to think that his brother was actually the person sent to watch him nearby.

Grand Duke Constantine has not yet agreed, and Grand Duke Mikhail on the other side is a bit daunted and a little eager to try. What was daunting was that he had just arrived in Kiev. Before he could figure out what had happened, he was assigned an errand by Count Rostovtsev.

This errand is to monitor and assist his ambitious second brother nearby, which is very happy.

what? What’s the joy of asking you?

Isn’t it simple? Watching Duke Constantine nearby means that his second brother is under his supervision. As long as he behaves more unselfishly, can he be unhappy when the news reaches the ears of the crown prince’s eldest brother?

At that time, as long as he was more diligent and made two trips to his eldest brother, and talked about how he strictly supervised Grand Duke Constantine at that time, would the eldest brother not have a good impression of him?

More importantly, there are two hidden benefits of taking this errand. The first one is that Count Rostovtsev said, let him assist Grand Duke Constantine with his official duties. After all, Grand Duke Constantine is in a state of restraint, and some official duties are not suitable for him to handle alone, but he said that he is assisting in fact. There is also a certain right of interference.

Grand Duke Mikhail wanted to have power in his dreams. Before, there was no suitable opportunity to cut in. Now Count Rostovtsev has given the opportunity to him. Is he not worthy of this opportunity if he doesn’t play well?

The second is that Grand Duke Mikhail can fully monitor the movements of Grand Duke Constantine by “assisting” his work. Once he finds out that this second brother really has a problem and has a handle, he will not take advantage of it in vain, and then think about it. If you want to leave a better impression on your eldest brother, you can directly report it. If you want to extort some benefits from your second brother, you can secretly link up. This is simply beautiful!

Anyway, Grand Duke Mikhail was happy in his heart, and his opinion of Count Rostovtsev was much better. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com will hurry all the way and be upset is completely forgotten.

It’s just that Grand Duke Mikhail didn’t know that Count Rostovtsev made this arrangement deliberately. The reason why Grand Duke Mikhail was sent to “supervise” Grand Duke Constantine was mainly for two purposes.

The first one is that he knows that compared to Grand Duke Nicholas, this man has a lot more brains and more thoughts. If you let him stay by his side, maybe this one will make a moth, or even make him go bad. With Grand Duke Nicholas, things will be very troublesome.

After kicking him away, with the cowardly good character of Grand Duke Nicholas, he still didn’t let him know, he said that the one who went south would definitely not dare to go north. Even if Duke Mikhail wanted to do tricks, he couldn’t connect with Duke Nicholas to form a synergy.

The second reason is that Count Rostovtsev is actually not at ease with Grand Duke Constantine. Li Xiao warned him before, saying that Duke Constantine is the best at doing things and must guard against him making trouble.

And this time when I came to Kiev to investigate the case, this one had just made a trick at the beginning, which increased the vigilance of Count Rostovtsev. In order to prevent him from continuing to do things later, someone must be sent to look after him, and Grand Duke Mikhail is undoubtedly the most suitable person…
