Struggle in Russia

Anton didn’t realize that Count Rostovtsev was trying to test him. After all, this count was a legendary figure to him. He didn’t really believe that these big figures high above the clouds would do the same. He is interested in small shrimps like this.

So he didn’t think too much, and said whatever he thought of: “I think the most important thing for Shuvalov or for Count Uvarov is the case itself. As long as Bestuzhev Lumin can be nailed to death. , Then they won’t suffer anyhow in the end.”

“If I were Count Shuvalov, I’m afraid I would step up to use measures against Bestuzhev Lumin to force him to submit.”

Count Rostovtsev smiled and said: “Forcing Bestuzhev to give up? I heard that this person has a relationship with Duke Constantine, and he is the staunchest supporter of the Duke. Do you think there is Is there a way to turn him back?”

Anton thought for a while and said: “I haven’t dealt with Bestuzhev Liuming, and I don’t understand this person. But I think people have weaknesses, and I think Bestuzhev Liuming is firm. The reason for supporting Grand Duke Constantine is nothing more than being promoted…people like him don’t have a strong will and can be subdued by all means!”

Count Rostovtsev looked at Anton in surprise, and smiled again: “Various methods? You might as well talk about what you think Shuvalov might use?”

Anton replied without hesitation: “The temptation seems unrealistic to me. The facts of the case have determined that Bestuzhev. Liuming must be over. Even if he can get rid of him, his value will be greatly reduced…This Shuvalov will definitely not do this kind of trade at a loss. I think it is more threatening. If he can catch Bestuzhev Liuming’s pigtails and threaten him with the most dangerous handle, he will probably submit in order to save his life. of.”

Anton’s ideas are almost the same as those of Count Rostovtsev. The Count also thinks that the only thing Shuvalov can do is to use the most deadly handle to blackmail Bestuzhev Ruming. Forcing it to submit. The question now is, does Bestuzhev Liuming really have such a handle?

Anton did not answer this question, but said: “I don’t think it is important to have or not. We just need to find out if Shuvalov did this. If he does, then The proof must be there. After all, Shuvalov must know Bestuzhev Lumin better than us in the third part of Kiev for so many years. It is possible that he knows what is wrong with him.”

Count Rostovtsev admired Anton more and more. He had heard Li Xiao’s introduction that this person was not of a very good background. A few years ago, he was a small officer, as immature as a bean sprout.

In just a few years, someone trained him like this, and sometimes Count Rostovtsev wanted to know how someone cultivated talent. If he had such a means of cultivating talents ten or twenty years ago, why would he take risks today?

Anton did not realize that Count Rostovtsev was distracted. He was still doing his own analysis: “If Bestuzhev Liuming is caught and forced to confess guilt, then the situation will be right for Constance. Dagong Ding is very disadvantaged, and even further, if he is particularly thorough and has to make false accusations against Duke Constantine, then the situation will be even more severe for him!”

Count Rostovtsev smiled and said: “A good analysis, Shuvalov is likely to have this plan, maybe as you said, he has already done it, maybe Bestuzhev Lumin It has now become their tainted witness.”

Anton interrupted and asked, “Isn’t it going to be unlucky for Grand Duke Constantine?!”

The tone of his words was not at all worrying, and even Count Rostovtsev heard some gloating meanings, which made him a little strange, because it is unlikely that Grand Duke Constantine had offended Anton, right? Why does he dislike that guy so much.

Count Rostovtsev asked calmly: “Are you worried for your Royal Highness?”

Anton directly shook his head and denied: “No, the grand prince gave me a terrible feeling. He was so stinky, and he was too careful to think about it. It would be too tiring to cooperate with him. You have to guard against him while dealing with enemies. Making trouble behind and dragging your feet, your character is really bad!”

Count Rostovtsev really did not expect that Anton would have such a low evaluation of Grand Duke Constantine. You must know that even if his hope of succession to the throne is slim in St. Petersburg, there are still a large number of nobles who praise him as a wise man. The contrast is too great for Dong here to despise him so much.

But Count Rostovtsev didn’t say anything about it, because he had a very ordinary feeling for this little fat man, and he didn’t think he was a man who could do big things. So after ascertaining Anton’s position on Grand Duke Constantine, he lightly skipped the topic and said:

“It’s just that this time I really can’t make Grand Duke Constantine fall too ugly, at least not let Shuvalov’s conspiracy succeed!”

Anton actually thinks that it is best to let the Grand Duke Constantine and Shuvalov bite the dog. Anyway, it is not a good thing. It is best to fight one and lose both!

Count Rostovtsev also laughed at this: “Indeed, it seems that both lose and lose, but it only looks good. For us Shuvalov and Uvarov are more difficult to deal with, they are our biggest No matter how unbearable Duke Constantine is, it is at least a target that can be used to attract their attention~www.wuxiax.com~ so it is more beneficial for Duke Constantine to live well!”

Anton also understood this truth, so he did not argue, but calmly followed the instructions of Count Rostovtsev.

“So our focus for the next period of time is Bestuzhev Lumin, trying to figure out what Shuvalov has caught him, and help them if necessary to eliminate this hidden danger!”

“Also, if there are enough manpower, please check Peter Barek for me, I want to know all his problems!”

Anton was taken aback, because Count Rostovtsev meant that he was preparing to attack Peter Balek? Would it be too reluctant to do so?

“Reluctantly?” Count Rostovtsev laughed. “You are as clever as your grand prince, but you lack experience after all. What’s the point of coming out of St. Petersburg and only winning a third Kiev , My imperial servant is not so worthless!”

“If you want to do it, you have to be bigger. Uvarov must be heartbroken, and taking control of Ukraine is also beneficial to you, and it will save you a lot of trouble after you come!”
