Struggle in Russia

Not to mention the episode on Count Rostovtsev’s side, after Grand Duke Konstantin returned to his residence, he immediately called Viscount Prozolov to discuss countermeasures. The arrival of Count Rostovtsev also caught him a bit by surprise. He urgently needed Viscount Prozolov to help him analyze it.

“Count Rostovtsev?”

After listening to the words of Grand Duke Constantine, Viscount Prozolov fell into contemplation. He is not particularly familiar with this earl, because he never likes to show his face, and basically there are few socializing and social activities.

He just heard from Grand Duke Constantine that the Earl was the absolute confidant of Nicholas I, and his status was not under the Count of Uvarov, and he was one of the most innocent people in the empire.

“To be honest, I don’t know why your Majesty sent this earl to handle this case. According to your statement, this earl is more like an advisor to your majesty, and should not be good at handling actual work. People can’t figure it out!”

Grand Duke Constantine also sighed: “Who said that’s not the case! This earl is one of the people I don’t want to face in the Winter Palace. He has never figured out his thoughts, and he has never been inclined. , I’m not polite to say that he might not even take my eldest brother in the eye, he is just the father’s dog and only serves him alone!”

Grand Duke Constantine complained: “Let such a guy handle the case, God knows what he will do. You see, he just came here and put Count Shuvalov under house arrest and sent a nasty little tail. Watch me, this clearly means not to put either of us in the eyes!”

Obviously, Grand Duke Constantine had a lot of opinions on Grand Duke Mikhail, and he was extremely dissatisfied with being watched. Fortunately, this was not St. Petersburg, otherwise he would have to go to the Winter Palace to find his father and cry.

Viscount Prozolov was not as irritable as Grand Duke Constantine. He carefully analyzed the pros and cons, and then said for a while: “His Royal Highness, for the time being, it seems that this earl is still doing more harm than good to us, although he sent Mikhail. The Grand Duke is here to monitor you, but it does not limit your freedom. You can still do many things…”

After a short pause, he continued: “And Shuvalov was not so lucky. You also said that he was under house arrest and could neither communicate with the outside world nor remotely command. This is equivalent to taking their brains in one fell swoop. Our enemy is completely paralyzed. This is a good thing!”

In fact, Grand Duke Constantine also knew this truth, which was why he could barely accept being monitored. Generally speaking, the arrival of Count Rostovtsev was still in their favor.

Viscount Prozolov saw that Grand Duke Constantine was not so irritable, and continued: “The top priority now is to crucify Shuvalov so that he can’t turn over. Then take advantage of their group of dragons to fight back with all their strength, and we must try to solve the case. The nature of it has been determined!”

Grand Duke Constantine nodded and said: “I also know this is the truth, but you have also seen it. It took me a long time to get rid of Mikhail as an annoying ghost. I think this kid is absolutely unkind. I’m holding back what’s bad for me!”

Viscount Prozolov laughed and said: “His Royal Highness, this does not surprise me at all. After all, it is more advantageous for Grand Duke Mikhail to flatter Prince Alexander. Naturally, he will not give you a good color! I guess he is Suppressing you to make you unhappy, take this to please the crown prince!”

“Hey! Who said no!” Prince Constantine annoyed. “But now he is a deputy imperial envoy, and he has received the order of Count Rostovtsev. I can’t do anything about holding a chicken feather as an arrow!”

Viscount Prozolov smiled evilly and said: “Who said that there is no way? It is very simple to deal with Grand Duke Mikhail. You should keep quarreling with him and involve his attention. It is best to keep making things happen. From Count Rostovtsev, the bigger the better. In the end, if your relationship is too tense, I think the imperial envoy will also be troubled, and it is very likely that he will be replaced by Grand Duke Nicholas to watch you, the temperament of Grand Duke Nicholas. It’s easy to deal with!”

Grand Duke Constantine’s eyes lit up and thought that Viscount Prozolov’s approach was very good. Isn’t it the old saying that crying children have milk to eat? This world always bullies honest people. If you want to avoid being bullied, you have to be dishonest. !

He gritted his teeth and said: “Okay, I’ll have trouble with him now, who is afraid of who! But the calculation is so, it will take time, but if I am entangled by Mikhail, who will preside over the overall situation!”

Viscount Prozolov bowed slightly and said: “His Royal Highness, if you believe me, I will arrange the counterattack plan for this period of time. I will not let you down!”

To tell the truth, Grand Duke Constantine was not completely at ease with Viscount Prozolov. It was not that he was worried about his seizure of power, but that he was not enough to fully realize his intentions. Because several times before, the Viscount hoped to join forces with Alexei and Li Xiao again, which was completely unacceptable to Grand Duke Constantine, so he specifically explained:

“Viscount, I trust you very much. I believe you will not let me down, but there are some things I must explain to you. Never go to those **** in Wallachia. Those **** are more than coal. Hei, always trying to take advantage of me~www.wuxiax.com~ I have suffered several times, and this time I can’t say anything and fall into the same pit!”

Actually, Viscount Prozolov really had the idea of ​​contacting Li Xiao by taking over the power, and even thought that it was a good thing for Count Rostovtsev to send someone to monitor Grand Duke Constantine. Some of this grand prince’s actions seemed too naive to him, and sometimes he was doing bad things. It would be easier to do things without him, who is prone to bad things, intervene in it.

Moreover, taking this opportunity, Viscount Prozolov can also let go and use it as a means to fully display himself. He wants to show Duke Constantine his true ability, just to consolidate his position.

It’s just that Grand Duke Constantine tirelessly gave special orders. He is not good at rebelling openly, and it is a bit late to contact Li Xiao now. If you can’t cooperate, then don’t cooperate!

He immediately nodded and said: “His Royal Highness, please rest assured, I will fully implement your intentions! There will never be any extravagance!”

Only then was Grand Duke Constantine satisfied. He patted Viscount Prozolov on the shoulder, and then went to look for Grand Duke Mikhail in a posture of a desperate and lonely strong man who will never return. , It seems that these two brothers will have a lot of noise in the next period of time, and there will be countless melons to eat…
