Struggle in Russia

"Prime Minister, it seems that you have to manage national affairs as well as be responsible for diplomatic work. The burden is too heavy and the pressure is too great. It should be to reduce the burden on you!"

In this statement, Nesher Roddie was so scared that he was scared to the ground. Why? Because these words are very heavy and scary, they are usually spoken by leaders when they want to wear small shoes for you or when you are dismissed from office.

And bureaucrats like Nescher Roddie are most afraid of what they are most afraid of. If he loses the foreign ministry on which he started, it would be a real blow. Because being a foreigner as the prime minister of Russia and being a prime minister in a higher-ranking cabinet, the difficulty is quite high.

Let's put it this way, the Ministry of War, the Navy, the Ministry of the Interior, and even the Ministry of National Education did not give Nesher Roddie a face because these ministers had close relations with Nicholas I. In other words, the real department that Nescher Lothi really talked about was his foreign ministry.

He has spent many years in the Foreign Ministry, accumulated a large number of contacts, promoted countless confidantes, and if he no longer serves as foreign minister, it means that his basic business has been badly damaged. At that time he wasn't more like the commander of a bare pole!

Immediately, Nesher Lodi realized that he had been unhappy with his grandson Lou Zi and provoked Nicholas I. He immediately remedied: "Your Majesty, thank you for your concern, but as the Prime Minister and your Chief Minister, It's my duty to bow to your service. No matter how hard or tired I am, I will stick to it! "

But Nicholas I did not catch a cold, but said indifferently: "This is good! But it will not make you overwork, exhaust your body, and delay the cause of the empire?"

Nesher Roddie was just crying, because Nicholas I obviously wanted to ask him what he had delayed the cause of the empire? You must pay at least? Instead of really caring about his body.

He can only scratch his head and answer: "I will do my best to complete every task you have given me, and I will definitely not delay any empire affairs!"

Nicholas I sneered in his heart and said blandly: "That's good, hard Prime Minister! So how long will it take for our country to get its special status in Wallachia and Moldavia?"

It was really impossible for Nesherrodie. He knew that Nicholas I had made up his mind. He would need Wallachia and Moldavia, regardless of whether the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Austria had opinions. This is already a mission, and it must be completed!

"I'll do it as fast as possible!" Nesher Roddie promised bitterly.

But Nicholas I was not satisfied and said, "Not only must you use the fastest speed, but you must do your best!"

Did Nesher Roddie dare to say a word? I could only nod with tears in agreement, so that when I walked out of the Imperial Study Room, I was a little bit embarrassed, and almost fell and fell.

But this scene is not the case in the eyes of Nicholas I: [Old fox! Acted pretty much! 】

Yes, Nicholas I thought that Nieser Lodhi was acting, performing bitterness. How can this little trick be concealed from him? Naturally, he is even more disliked by these full-fledged civil servant Nicholas I.

He said to Paskovic: "Dad! Look at these guys, and ask them to do a little bit of little things they can do is to do three tricks and four tricks. There are really big things, how can they be reliable!"

Nicholas I once again felt that the only soldiers in the world who could be trusted were soldiers. Other ministers other than soldiers were either slick, obedient, or too cunning, all bad bones. Just now Nesher Lodie has fully illustrated this!

So if there is not a suitable replacement for the time being, he really wants to give Nesher Roddie a place, either to let his prime minister focus on becoming a foreign minister, or to let him only change the prime minister for a more qualified diplomacy. Minister.

This is more than just talking, because he immediately asked Paskovic: "Dad, is there a senior military officer suitable for diplomacy? Carl is old, and it is impossible to work in this position forever. Go on! We must consider the replacement! "

Paskovich naturally knew that Nicholas I's idea of ​​replacing Nescher Rodin was never because he was old. Because there are a lot of old ministers older than Bineshel Lotie, if you want to consider replacing candidates, you have to consider all. However, Nicholas I only chose the name of Nesher Roddie, so there was only one reason: the Tsar thought that Nesher Roddie was not obedient enough, and not enough to tame!

Of course, Paskevich also had a bad opinion of Nesher Roddie, or he didn't get along well with the civil servants. After all, few civil servants liked him like this illiterate old hooligan, and always DISS him.

Naturally, you can give Nesher Roddie the opportunity to take eye drops. Paskovic will not miss it. If you can let a person who shares the army with the army be the foreign minister, isn't it beautiful? So Paskovich immediately suggested: "What about the Duke of Dolgoruki? He is absolutely loyal!"

However, Nicholas I did not feel much about the Duke of Dolgoruky. He felt that his mediocrity was not enough to entrust his duties. After all, as the most important minister of the cabinet-the foreign minister still needs real skills, not just Just be obedient.

Of course, the most important thing is that Nicholas I's idea of ​​replacing Nesher Loddy was just a whim, not particularly strong, so it was just a matter of talking for the time being.

But this is not to say that Nielsen Lodi is as stable as www.ltnovel.com ~ because Nicholas I ’s idea of ​​using soldiers for diplomacy was by no means a whim, he really had a need in this regard, and he actually liked it Candidate.

who?

Old **** Menshkov!

This is not a joke, because in history, before the Crimean war broke out, as a special envoy of Nicholas I, Menshkov personally went to Istanbul to pressure the Ottoman Turkish sultan and gave an ultimatum.

It can be seen that on such a major issue, Nicholas I really only believed in soldiers, but the problem was that the people he chose were sincere enough. Menshkov's errand that year was a mess and did not produce any good results, so it is true that no one can do diplomacy.

In other words, if it was Nescher Lodi or a more appropriate diplomat who served as the special envoy of Nicholas I, I am afraid there would be no such thing as the Crimean War. With extreme pressure, Russia can put what it wants into its pockets effortlessly.

Unfortunately, history can't assume that Nicholas I didn't regret taking the medicine!
