Struggle in Russia

v2 Chapter 722 - Scheming

Li Xiao was right. The reason why Alexandra brought Frederick Carl to the door was to prevent Li Xiao from giving her a closed door. Because Li Xiao can not give her face, but he will definitely not give her face to Frederick Karl.

I have to say that sisters Alexandra are clever enough, and they are really invincible in small issues, but, the overall situation of the sisters is much different, especially Augusta is always small. Lost big, typically picking sesame seeds and losing watermelon.

“Madam, Carl, welcome you!” Li Xiao warmly gave Frederick Carl a hug, and then asked: “The sudden visit made me unprepared, what happened?”

Alexandra is actually not particularly willing to deal with Li Xiao. She hates everything. She always feels that it is because of Li Xiao that Augusta made such a big mistake. If Li Xiao didn’t disturb everything. will not happen. So if it were not for nothing, she really didn’t want to see someone.

She could only reluctantly smile and replied: “The main reason is that Karl hasn’t seen you for a while, and he still wants to have a long conversation with you!”

Frederick Carl also probably knows what the purpose of this trip is. After all, he is considered a good man in the family. Most important things will still be notified to him. Although he is impatient with politics, he also knows why the second aunt suddenly got chickenpox. Seeing how strange, there must be something wrong.

So this time, the old mother forced Li Xiao to come here. Although he was inexplicable, he honestly agreed. But now the old mother has pushed him to the front desk, she can’t let him really have a long conversation with someone!

Of course, Frederick Carl was not only uncomfortable but also very happy about it, but he knew that the old mother must have another purpose, but Alexandra did not tell him what the purpose was, so he can’t let him just care about himself. Chatting to leave the old mother’s business aside, right?

So he knocked on the old mother, and the meaning of the consultation was obvious, but Alexandra did not mean to speak immediately, instead pretending not to see it. Now Frederick Karl is even more inexplicable: [What do you mean, can you give me a quasi-believe! 】

Watching the performance of the mother and son, Li Xiao became more and more convinced that something must have happened within the Hohenzollern family, otherwise his cousin could not be like this. But he wasn’t in a hurry, Xiao Huo slowly boiled it, and it would be better then.

So Li Xiao pretended not to know anything, warmly and thoughtfully entertained Alexandra’s mother and son for tea and chatting, which was completely leisurely.

After an hour or two, Alexandra finally couldn’t help it, because her previous idea was to poke Li Xiao’s appetite first. She believed that the other party could definitely see her intentions, so Li Xiao If she speaks actively, one is more natural on her side and the second is to avoid being passive.

why? Alexandra felt that if she took the initiative to ask Li Xiao, she would fall into absolute passivity. What if Li Xiao refused? Isn’t it that she can’t do things and lose face?

Taking a step back, even if Li Xiao didn’t refuse, what if this kid was asking for a price that made her uncomfortable?

All in all, Alexandra felt that she should be steady first, at least not to let Li Xiao know that she was too anxious.

It’s a pity that this is useless, because Li Xiao really didn’t know what happened, and he was really not in a hurry. He believed that since Alexandra was here, he would take the initiative to speak out.

In this regard, Alexandra really couldn’t consume Li Xiao. She soon discovered that this cousin was very difficult to deal with, just like a clever angler would exhaust all the fish’s energy little by little. Finally she couldn’t wait any longer, so she could only ask:

“…Have you visited Augusta?”

Li Xiao was taken aback for a moment, but his face remained calm, and he asked calmly: “Why, is Mrs. Prince ill? I have been busy negotiating recently and I really have no time to pay attention to other things. Is the situation serious?”

Alexandra took another sip in her heart. She didn’t believe Li Xiao’s words at all. The previous leaks caused a lot of trouble. How could someone as the main negotiator know nothing?

Alexandra felt that Li Xiao was deliberately pretending to be stupid, and he could tell that he was insincere from what someone said just now. Most people have heard that Augusta is ill. Apart from asking questions about the condition, they must express something. , At least say you are going to visit one or two!

But someone didn’t say anything at all, making it clear that he didn’t want to visit the sick. Why don’t you want to visit the doctor? It was because he knew that Augusta was not sick at all but was under house arrest!

[You slippery little fox! 】

Alexandra cursed secretly in her heart, and could only say again: “It seems to be chickenpox! William strictly isolated Augusta to prevent infection…”

Speaking of this, Alexandra gave Li Xiao a meaningful look, as if to say: “You should understand!”

Of course, Li Xiao understood this look, and because the strict isolation of chickenpox meant that there was something in the words, he probably understood the current state of Augusta after a little thought-ten times he was under house arrest.

But why William I wanted to put his wife under house arrest is thought-provoking, but Li Xiao is also a smart man, and he soon thinks of the leak case. He was also a little embarrassed by the leaker before, and the secret cooperation between them and Prussia It was almost messed up.

However, Li Xiao really didn’t expect Augusta to be a leaker. UU read www.uukanshu.com. He felt that Augusta was not that stupid. He thought it might be that Augusta inadvertently leaked the wind. Was implicated.

“Chickenpox?” Li Xiao’s brain was running at high speed, but his mouth was haha: “This is troublesome, it really needs good care…”

But these words made Alexandra even more upset: [Take care of a woolen yarn, you really don’t know if Augusta is ill, you even beat me haha, are you sincere! 】

How much Alexandra wished Li Xiao could take the sentence “Let’s make time to visit Augusta” so that she could agree to it, and then Li Xiao came to visit in person. She didn’t believe that William I could be tough. Face turned away from the door.

It’s a pity that Li Xiao doesn’t understand this stubbornness at all, because he is not stupid either, knowing that the water here is deep, how could he step in stupidly.

Li Xiao knows very well that Alexandra’s purpose at this time is by no means pure. If she follows her rhythm stupidly, she will help count the money if she is sold. So the best way is to pretend to be stupid and persecute. The other party explained. This shows that it is easy to analyze the pros and cons and negotiate terms…
