Struggle in Russia

Vol 3 Chapter 1419: It’s hard to ask for help

【Struggle in Tsarist Russia】【】

Alexander II asked questions knowingly. Who didn't know that Grand Duke Constantine would not come to him for the Admiralty. To say the least, even if there was something wrong with the Admiralty, how big of a deal would it be?

This is actually a subtle beating, deliberately pretending to be confused to express that you don't want to help.

Can Grand Duke Constantine hear it?

Naturally, I could hear it, and I felt even more angry at that time. In addition to complaining about Viscount Prozolov's cheating, he also resented Alexander II for not being brotherly.

He gritted his teeth, took a deep breath and replied slowly: "Everything is normal in the Admiralty and all work is being carried out in an orderly manner. Please rest assured!"

Alexander II looked at him with some surprise. Such Grand Duke Constantine was rare. In his memory, this younger brother had always been unruly, the kind of mad dog that would jump up and bite as soon as he stepped on his tail.

In the past, he would have had an attack on the spot, but he held it back today. It seems that this guy also knew that the situation was different!

Alexander II felt a little secretly happy. In the past, only Grand Duke Constantine had troubled him, but the old man always stood by him and supported him.

Now there is no old man going too far!

Alexander II felt secretly happy again, and became more and more sarcastic: "Since everything is normal in the Admiralty, why are you here?"

This was like a question, at least it sounded very rude, and it was naturally even more offensive to Grand Duke Constantine. He was about to jump off his feet, but when he looked up and saw the face of Alexander II holding back a bad smile, he Suddenly I woke up.

He knew that Alexander II did this on purpose, to anger him on purpose, and to make him angry.

Don't look at the fact that Grand Duke Constantine has always been tough-talking, and has always said that he does not appreciate Alexander II's help. But he knew very well that he would not be able to get through this without Alexander II's help.

Compared with the position of power, losing a little face is nothing!

Grand Duke Constantine clenched his fists and kept telling himself to be patient. He calmly replied: "I have other more urgent matters to report to you. Do you think you can give me a few minutes to talk alone?"

As he spoke, he glanced at Count Rostovtsev and Count Kleinmicher, with the clear intention that he hoped Alexander II would retreat. Although he has gone all out and doesn't care about the embarrassment, it's still better if he can avoid embarrassment in front of outsiders, right?

He has no masochistic tendencies!

It’s just that Alexander II has been waiting for this moment for so many years!

I remember that Archduke Constantine gave him some face back then and kept slapping him in the face in front of outsiders. Now it is time to calculate the total ledger including capital and profits!

Alexander II ignored Grand Duke Constantine's hint and replied seriously: "Since it is a more important matter, let's just talk about it directly. Count Rostovtsev and Count Kleinmicher are not outsiders either. Can you help me with some ideas? What can you tell me?"

Grand Duke Constantine is so angry!

He thought for a while and replied: "This is a private royal matter. I think it is more appropriate to discuss it alone!"

This excuse is good, but why does Alexander II just want to embarrass him?

He waved his hand and said: "The royal family is selfless. No matter what it is, you can talk openly and honestly. Besides, I believe in the integrity of the two earls. They are not the kind of people who like to gossip. Tell me, what is it!"

This forced Grand Duke Constantine into a corner. Unless he ignored it and walked away, he would be in disgrace!

From a distance, Count Kleinmicher could hear the sound of Archduke Constantine gnashing his teeth. One can imagine how strong the hatred in this man's heart was.

To be honest, Count Kleinmicher didn't want to get involved in the conflict between the two brothers at all. As the old saying goes, they are brothers. After breaking the bones, the tendons are connected. Who knows whether there will be reconciliation in the future.

It's fun to watch the joke now, but I'll regret it in the future at the Family Crematorium.

He couldn't help but interjected: "Your Majesty, I feel that it is not appropriate for us to know about the internal affairs of the royal family. After all, this is your family matter. Why don't Count Rostovtsev and I retreat first? You have finished talking to His Highness the Grand Duke. How about summoning us again if you really need our advice?”

Who would have thought that Alexander II waved his hand without hesitation and said: "There is no need for that. I have already said it, the royal family is selfless! I have always behaved upright and have no dirty secrets! Let's tell it to your face here!"

Count Kleinmicher stepped back with a grimace. He had to listen even if he didn't want to.

As for Count Rostovtsev, he said nothing from the beginning to the end, looking like he was waiting to see the excitement.

This made Count Kleinmicher confused. Didn't he know the risks because of his wisdom? Do you really want to see his jokes?

Count Rostovtsev really wasn't waiting to see a joke. Although it was really fun to see Grand Duke Constantine in such a mess, as the mastermind behind the reformists, he was not so shallow. UU read books www.uukanshu.net

After all, this is all a family scandal. Although he has not particularly admired Grand Duke Constantine and does not think he can really lead the reformists on the right path, he has acquiesced in his rise and even secretly supported his rise. Help has been provided.

Seeing such a single-handedly supported "next generation" blatantly rebelling because of selfishness, actually helping conservatives deal with their own people. To be honest, his heart hurts!

His lack of any expression was more because he saw through the hypocrisy of Alexander II and knew that he could not easily let Grand Duke Constantine go, so it was useless to say anything.

In addition, we also want to see what means the two brothers have to prevent it in advance.

It didn't matter to him whether the Grand Council of Constantine would be displeased, whether he would retaliate in the future, and whether Alexander II would change his mind in the future.

They were already enemies when Grand Duke Constantine betrayed the reformists and when Alexander II's conservative tendencies became known to the world.

Count Rostovtsev will never show mercy to his enemy!

Grand Duke Constantine was forced to do nothing. He knew that even if he was reluctant, he could only follow Alexander II's instructions.

"The retrial of the "Voice of Liberty" is imminent. I think some conspirators with ulterior motives may not be willing to fail and will try to interfere with judicial justice... I think some necessary measures should be taken to ensure that the case is heard fairly and that justice will not be denied. What about the twist?”

Alexander II gave him a look of disdain. Everyone knew what he meant. It was so ugly for Grand Duke Constantine to tell lies in a serious manner, while ensuring the fairness of the case. Are you trying to interfere with justice? !
