The temperature in Vienna at the end of November is getting lower and lower. Although it has not snowed yet, the bleak cold wind still makes people shiver.

This kind of weather is especially unfriendly to the poor, because the poor have a difficult winter, and this year Austria is troubled, and the uprising has spread to the whole country, and it is even more difficult for the poor to have a stable source of income. Too much.

Especially for those civilians who were besieged and unable to move in the city of Vienna, life was even more difficult. This music capital has been blocked for several months. Not only is it difficult to heat the city, but now it is a big problem to eat.

According to Wendisch Gretz's arrangement, the urban area of ​​Vienna was tightly sealed off, no matter whether it was personnel or materials, all were allowed to leave and not allowed to enter, preparing to starve and trap the rebels in the city to death.

This trick is still very useful. Since November, large-scale fleeing began to occur in the city. The civilians who were too hungry to survive had to flee the city with their families. This made the situation of the rebel army even worse. If Schwarzenberg's conditions were not too harsh and there was no way to agree, the rebel army would probably surrender directly.

However, although the rebels are still gritting their teeth and persisting, it is hard to say how long they can persist. If Gergey Altur can't come to rescue quickly, the rebel army will disintegrate by the end of December at most.

Of course, these sufferings and difficulties only belong to the poor people and the rebels in the city. For the Austrian nobles who fled Vienna early and hid in their country villas, this winter is not very different from the past. Listening to concerts in the hall, you can't have fun and open salons in the city.

This article applies not only to Austrian nobles, but also to those foreign nobles. For example, Baron Karl Hans von Rigott, as the counselor of the Russian embassy in Austria, his life is very nourishing.

Get up at 10:30 every day, dress up, go for a walk, enjoy a hearty breakfast, and then take a short rest before going to the lounge for an hour. At three o'clock in the afternoon, he will have lunch on time and then set off, go to the temporary residence of the embassy, ​​go around and check in, and then get off work at four o'clock to attend a party with friends.

Eat the most sumptuous meal of the day on time at eight o'clock in the evening, and then either a salon or a dance, and then tryst with the new mistress all the time, maybe spend the night with the mistress, or go home to rest after having a sex.

All in all, this kind of life is the same. Anyway, it has been half a month since he arrived in Vienna to work, and he has been living like this for the past half month. Telling the truth is not usually tiring, and it takes a lot of money.

This kind of life may be a little more monotonous than St. Petersburg,

But Baron Ligot felt at ease. After all, he was still a German, and his living habits were very different from those of the northern barbarians.

In Russia, even the most refined aristocrats are inevitably addicted to alcohol, but he really has no love for hard alcohol. If it weren't for the satisfactory salary given by the Russians, he would have wanted to return to his country a long time ago.

And returning to Vienna this time can be regarded as a relief from his homesickness. Returning to his familiar hometown and working is so pleasant, it is simply a dreamlike vacation trip.

Baron Ligot is very satisfied with the status quo, and feels that for the time being, there will be nothing that can disturb his peaceful vacation life, not even Duke Alexander Gorchakov, because Nesselrode had already given him After taking the reassurance—just be passive and sabotage, he will take care of everything, so don't worry about tossing!

So even if Duke Alexander had talked to him before and asked him to focus more, even if it was a simple warning, he would not take it seriously at all.

For example, tonight, the enthusiastic Schwarzenberg's secretary introduced him to a famous lady. After seeing that lady at the ball last night, it really made his heart itch. If he could kiss Fangze, it would make him He would be happy to die of exhaustion on the bed.

Baron Ligott, who was full of joy, did not realize that no matter where he went these days, there would be a carriage slowly following him. Vishniak in the carriage had already watched him firmly, keeping his work and rest time and Living habits are inseparable.

"It's unbearable for this old pervert to attack a little girl who is similar to his daughter!"

Li Xiao was not at all surprised by Vishniak's complaints. As a lover in the world, he envied and hated Baron Ligott, whose body had already been buried in the ground. After the first baron, he was very indignant, and he wanted to kill that guy.

"Then don't bear it!" Li Xiao replied lightly, "The Duke has already talked to him, and he has no intention of stopping this guy at all, and it is said that he is Nesselrode's hard-core henchman, he must be killed. get rid of!"

For this, Vishniak expressed his approval with both hands and wished to do it immediately: "It's time to get rid of this scum! The sooner the better!"

For Duke Alexander's request, Li Xiao has many plans. As he said before, it can be a gentle method, or he can use a knife to kill someone, and of course it can be the most drastic method. If it was someone else, Li Xiao might not be so violent, but this Ligot really angered Duke Alexander, and his arrogance was so arrogant that even the Duke didn't want to see him again. Do you think it's okay if he doesn't die?

"According to the original plan, when he comes out from his mistress tonight, Boris will be in charge of dealing with him. Don't use a gun. There's too much movement. There are noble manors nearby. Every day is either a salon or a dance. The Austrian patrol team is very kind. Our identities are sensitive and must not be exposed!"

Boris nodded nonchalantly while nibbling on his big elbow. The ones he brought over were all good hands, and the baron's guard, hey! Telling the truth can also frighten those civilians.

Li Xiao continued to explain: "After the matter is done, leave the things that should be left behind and retreat immediately. Don't love to fight. I will lead people to meet you outside. If you encounter trouble, you should send a signal immediately! Other things If there is a change, I would rather give up than force it, and put safety first!"

Boris took another bite of his big elbow, and muttered while chewing: "Don't worry, I have a count here, and I will never miss anything. I guarantee that that baron will not see the sun tomorrow!"

Li Xiao is also speechless about this guy's carelessness, but although this guy is a bit of a mess, he is still reliable in his work, and these things really can't be left to outsiders, once the news gets out, the consequences will be disastrous!
