Struggle in Russia

So does Count Uvarov have the ability to get Prince Baryatinsky out of the mud?

To be honest, this is a very debatable question.

If it were back then, Count Uvarov would have had this ability. Not to mention clearing Prince Baryatinsky's name, it was just a matter of slapping Nikolai Milyutin with just one word from him.

But this is no longer the case. To put it bluntly, Count Uvarov himself has a crotch, so why can't he clean it? How can he help Duke Baryatinsky since he has been marginalized?

By faith or by love?

Anyway, conservatives and reformers don’t eat either.

What's more, even if Count Uvarov really has this ability, he is not a philanthropist, so why should he help Duke Baryatinsky for nothing?

What you pay for must be rewarded. What did Prince Baryatinsky give him in return?

Could it be that the old man is invited back to take charge of the overall situation again?

Even if Prince Baryatinsky is so generous, other conservative leaders are not willing!

Naturally, even if Alexander II had the idea to ask Count Uvarov to help Duke Baryatinsky overcome his predicament, he would have to consider the feelings of other conservatives.

After thinking for a while, he made a decision: "Count, how about you go talk to Duke Baryatinsky? After all, Count Uvarov is old, and it is not appropriate to bother him. I believe that as long as he gets through this, It’s been a difficult time, but the situation will get better soon, so don’t be impatient!”

Old Adlerberg was a little confused. Why did this job fall on him? It was obviously Count Rostovtsev who brought up this matter on his own initiative, so he should be the one to resolve it, right?

To be honest, he didn't really want to get involved in this matter. After all, Count Uvarov was not that easy to get along with, and Duke Baryatinsky was not easy to deal with either. If he offends these two, he will have to walk around without food!

Old Adlerberg glanced at Count Rostovtsev, with an obvious meaning, which was to remind Count Rostovtsev that this is your business, so you should take over this job quickly!

But Count Rostovtsev would not pay attention to him. His purpose was to put old Adlerberg in to buy time for Li Xiao.

As he expected, Alexander II left this job to the old fox. He was too late to be happy, so how could he help old Adlerberg out of the siege.

Naturally, he just pretended not to see it, but old Adlerberg was in dire straits. With Alexander II's attitude there, he really didn't have the guts to refuse, but he was very reluctant. After struggling for a while, he bit the bullet and said:

"Your Majesty, it may not be that easy to convince Duke Baryatinsky. I am not completely sure. Do you think you should find someone else..."

Alexander II interrupted: "Find someone to help you, right? Let's do this, I'll ask Count Kleinmicher to accompany you!"

What else could old Adlerberg say? You can't say that Count Kleinmicher can't do it, right?

If he said this, he would offend two people at once, whether it was Alexander II or Count Kleinmicher.

In desperation, he could only nod in agreement, but the old fox still did not forget the original intention of coming to the Winter Palace. He reminded again: "Your Majesty, you must pay attention to the movements of Archduke Andrei and the third part of St. Petersburg, and be sure to report everything. Risk factors are nipped in the bud, I think..."

Alexander II interrupted him again: "I will tell Duke Dolgoruky to be more careful. You can go and convince Duke Baryatinsky with peace of mind. The troubles in the Ministry of Justice are between me and Rostovsky." Earl Husband keeps an eye on it, there won’t be any problem!”

Seeing that Alexander II was unwilling to let him interfere with the troubles of the Ministry of Justice, old Adlerberg had no choice but to leave the Winter Palace angrily.

He did not know that this trip to the Winter Palace was actually more costly than good, because as soon as he left Alexander II, he said to Count Rostovtsev unhappily: "Count, your judgment is very accurate. Now people's hearts are floating. Look at it." Count Adlerberg, with his hands stretched out so long, it seems that he has other thoughts!"

Count Rostovtsev nodded slightly and said: "This is normal. This count was known for his ability to dance. Count Uvarov used to suppress him, so he was more restrained and honest... Now that Uvarov is gone... Count, he may also have ambitions to fight for power, and probably wants to compete with Count Pobedonostsev and Prince Baryatinsky."

Alexander II hummed: "Yes, otherwise how could he be so well-informed? I didn't even know that the Third Department of St. Petersburg was targeting the Ministry of Justice, but he knew about it in advance... I'm afraid he has worked hard to bribe him in these days. Take care of people’s hearts! Isn’t this guy Minih bought by him?”

Old Adlerberg never imagined how superb Count Rostovtsev's methods were. Before he arrived at the Winter Palace, he severely reported him in front of Alexander II.

He told Alexander II that the elder Adlerberg was having a heated fight with Minih and had the idea of ​​bringing the Ministry of Justice under his control. But the feeble-minded Minih could not withstand the temptation and had already joined him as his younger brother.

Alexander II was not particularly convinced at first. The reason was very simple. The reason why Minih was able to become the Minister of Justice was entirely because he needed someone who did not have a deep background and could be more obedient to control the key Ministry of Justice.

Alexander II had long realized the importance of the Ministry of Justice. If this department was controlled by him, it would be equivalent to pinching the reformists. Any reform bill that wants to be implemented must first pass the Ministry of Justice.

Holding this level will prevent the reformists from doing whatever they want. Then he can negotiate the terms with the reformists easily and happily, and force the reformists to retreat without much effort.

But now when his carefully selected Minister of Justice encounters trouble, the first thing he thinks of is not asking him, the boss, for help. Instead, he first turns to old Adlerbeg. Obviously, in Minih's heart, he is not as good as the czar as old Adlerbeg. It’s so important!

The reason for this situation must be that old Adlerberg was trying to win over Minih, and he might have promised some benefits!

This made Alexander II very angry. The land grab actually got his land. What did the bastard old Adlerberg mean? What's on his mind?

Do you think that Duke Baryatinsky is on his last legs and is ready to jump out to seize power and become addicted to being the big brother of the conservatives?

This is something that Alexander II will never accept. In his plan, the conservatives who succeed Count Uvarov must and can only be Duke Baryatinsky and Count Pobedonostsev. At most There is one more Dmitri Milyutin, and no one else can have any inappropriate thoughts!
