Struggle in Russia

If Li Xiao's words fell into Alexey's ears, it would be an out-and-out comfort, because Alexei knew exactly where Li Xiao's pain points were, and he felt that Li Xiao's relationship was too limited. There are only a few people who can get in touch, such as Duke Mikhail and General Lazarev.

Although these two are of high authority, they must know the bottom line of Nicholas I, but Alexei feels that the relationship between Li Xiao and these two is not to the point of heart-to-heart. It's that cruel.

But Li Xiao is really not just consolation. His family knows his family affairs, and Li Xiao actually has connections. For example, he knows that his old housekeeper is a bit mysterious, and his relationship network is quite good. Count Vtsev was closely related.

If old Igor could inquire about the situation from Count Rostovtsev, with that count's ability, he could clean Nicholas I's underpants in minutes.

It's just that Li Xiao knew that Earl Rostovtsev was not easy to deal with. This mysterious earl had always been secretive in his work, and he couldn't guess his mind at all. According to Li Xiao's thinking, this earl is more difficult to guess than Nicholas I's mind, and God knows what his attitude will be.

Anyway, Li Xiao's attitude is that there are dates and no dates. If Count Rostovtsev is willing to give a letter, then everything is easy to say, and Nicholas I can be thoroughly explained in minutes. It's no secret to pamper your mistress several times for a few minutes at a time.

Of course, that earl might not say anything, then everything would be useless, Li Xiao knew that if that one didn't want to talk, it would be useless for anyone to come, maybe even Nicholas I couldn't do anything about him.

So he didn't say anything to Alexei, he just said to try, in case Count Rostovtsev couldn't figure it out.

"Your little master asked you to ask me about Nikolai's true attitude towards Austria, and want to know where his bottom line is?"

Count Rostovtsev was overjoyed, looked Igor up and down, and asked, "Why did your little master ask you to ask me?"

Igor said unhappily: "He didn't ask who you asked? It's not like you don't know how hard Nicholas has suppressed him these years, and how can he have a decent relationship within the court. How could this kind of thing be known to important officials of the court? !"

Count Rostovtsev laughed and said, "It seems that in the eyes of your little master, I am still an important minister of the country! What an honor!"

Igor gave him a blank look and said, "Stop talking nonsense, say yes quickly!"

It's just that Count Rostovtsev's mouth is not so easy to pry open. The guy full of mischief said slowly: "Why does your little master think I know? What did you tell him?"

Igor became more and more angry: "I didn't say anything,

I, Igor, will definitely be able to do what I promised, unlike someone... Humph! "

Count Rostovtsev nodded, he knew old Igor's temper. This person puts the most emphasis on promises, so he really keeps his promises. Since he said he didn't say it, he naturally didn't say it.

He smiled and said: "The little master of your family has become more and more sensitive, and he has acted like that all these years! It really is a little fox. I'm just talking about the Romanov family. How can it be so embarrassing?" Yes, this is a big game of chess, isn't it!"

Igor became more and more speechless, because he didn't think Li Xiao was playing chess. It was not easy for him to bring Li Xiao up these years, so what leisure and energy would he have to play chess? It's Count Rostovtsev who has been playing chess all the time, okay? This bastard is the old badass chess player, okay?

Of course, Igor was also a little puzzled, because Li Xiao's performance in recent months has indeed been quite different from before, as if he had suddenly become enlightened, and his level was gradually rising, which surprised him constantly!

However, Igor did not give Earl Rostovtsev a good face, and he was confused by a speechless and disgusted look: "What kind of chess? We don't have that skill, but you, a decent chess player, can you do less?" Talk nonsense, if you want to say it, you can say it if you don’t want to say it!"

Count Rostovtsev shook his head. He was actually just joking, and he didn't really think that Li Xiao or Igor had the ability to play chess. And judging from Li Xiao's intentions, I'm afraid he is planning to go to Austria to cause trouble, so why not push the boat along?

For Count Rostovtsev, he naturally hoped that the bigger the affairs in Austria, the better, because the bigger the affairs over there, the better his planning would be. It's just that Li Xiao's trouble-making level is quite worth looking forward to. Look at this kid's tossing career in Wallachia. It's a surprise, and he has indirectly helped him a lot!

So Count Rostovtsev didn't hide anything, he sold it to Nicholas I straightforwardly, revealed his bottom line, and told Igor: "Tell your little master, you can do things, but be careful , because Nicholas attaches great importance to Austria, once he finds out that someone is doing bad things secretly, I am afraid that he will be ruthless!"

This is really not a joke. Count Rostovtsev knows Nicholas I too well. This guy is a bastard bastard who looks benevolent and moral, but is actually a male thief and a female prostitute. This guy has a very strong desire for revenge, and he will take revenge!

"Is there any special advice?"

Igor also knew the seriousness of the matter, and he didn't want Li Xiao to really anger the tyrant, so he asked a special question.

"Also tell your little master to pay special attention to Paskovich!" Count Rostovtsev warned solemnly after thinking for a while, "Don't look at that old guy's illiterate and rascally appearance, but in fact It is also full of bad water, so bad that it is bleeding pus. This time, your little master must be on the side of Prince Mikhail, that is, to grab food from him, be careful of him! That guy can do anything !"

In the end, he was still worried that Igor didn't pay enough attention to it, so he warned very solemnly: "Yermolov was tricked by him back then, you should weigh it!"

Igor was taken aback. Of course he knew Ermolov's name. Veteran generals like him fell into Paskovich's hands. That old rascal was too ruthless!

Count Rostovtsev hummed: "If you don't get Yermolov down, how can Paskovich get the credit, or how can he get the title of Earl Yerevan! That guy is for the credit! Unscrupulous! Be careful! This time he will be even crazier for the title of Prince!"

Igor suddenly took a deep breath and said, "Prince title? Nicola is willing to pay such a large amount of money?!"
