Struggle in Russia

Vol 2 Chapter 382: Conversation (3)

Nikolai Milutin is a bit nervous. If Count Rostovtsev is really a supporter of Grand Duke Konstantin Pavlovich and prepares to conspire to overthrow the rule of Nicholas I, then things will be really troublesome. .

Because among the December’s supporters, the earl is quite influential. If he wants to rebel, he will definitely have a large number of followers. Nicholas Miliuting did not approve of rebellion. He felt that it was not the most important thing to be the czar. The most important thing was to maintain the stability of Russia and the new czar must do something new.

Only when these two conditions are met, Russia will not fall into division due to a new round of political turmoil. He knows very well that Russia can't afford it now, because it has fallen too far behind Britain. Once it falls into turmoil, Russia may be dismembered by foreign interfering forces. At that time, it is not all over.

After a long period of contemplation, Nikolai Miliuting cautiously persuaded: "Count, I don’t think it matters who will be the emperor. The direct blood relatives of the Romanov family were severed after Peter the Great. If we insist on the lineage, we Who should be the emperor?"

Russian emperors who are too powerful usually have heirs. The Romanov family came to power because Ivan the Terrible died, and only the children of the former queen family can inherit the throne (there was more than one former queen, so you know). Peter the Great was almost like Ivan the Terrible, and his sons were basically dried up. Later, his wife Yekaterina I had no sons. In the end, he could only let his grandson Peter II come to power. He died at the age of four or five, and completely declared that the Romanov family was end of life.

In the end, the daughter of Ivan V could only be the emperor, and after some tossing, Peter the Great’s daughter Elizabeth I seized power and claimed to inherit the blood of Peter the Great.

Of course, it is also named, because according to tradition, everyone knows that daughters and sons are different. That is to say, whether it is Nicholas I, or his brother Alexander I or Grand Duke Konstantin Pavlovich, it’s not a serious descendant of the Romanov family, but Peter. This collateral line of the great grandson.

However, after Peter II, Anna I, Ivan VI, Elizabeth I, Peter III, and later Ekaterina the Great and Paul I, this coup d’état was tossed and tempered. The Russians, especially the Russian nobles, dismissed the lineage of the Romanov family. Anyone with two legs who can touch Peter the Great or Ivan V can be a tsar, what orthodoxy let him go to hell! Whoever has a hard fist is the czar!

So hard fist is the last word, and now Nicholas I’s fist is very hard, so his legitimacy is beyond doubt. If you want to question, you have to be harder than his fist!

Count Rostovtsev looked at Nikolai Miliuting, who was a little nervous and a little frightened, and asked calmly: "Whoever can be emperor regardless of bloodline?"

Nikolai Miliuting replied firmly: "It can maintain the unity of Russia and promote the prosperity and strength of Russia. To achieve these two points, regardless of blood, you are the most qualified descendants of the czar and the Romanov family!"

Count Rostovtsev smiled suddenly and slowly said: "I think so too! It seems that we are exactly the same in this respect! Very good! My friend, I hope you will always remember these two points. !"

Nikolai Miliuting was stunned, and he didn't understand what Count Rostovtsev meant. Why did he go in a circle as if he didn't understand anything?

"Count, what do you mean?"

Count Rostovtsev looked at him in a bit of surprise, as if confused, and asked, "What do you mean? What do you mean?"

This is also enough to talk about and burn your brain. If you are used to using Chinese, it can be regarded as a question above the sixth level of the Chinese exam. Nikolai Miliuting thought for a long time before he probably understood what Count Rostovtsev meant, and asked in a low voice:

"You give me the feeling that Grand Duke Konstantin Pavlovich is the orthodox, ready to conspire against the rule of His Majesty today..."

Count Rostovtsev burst into a burst of laughter, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, and it took him a long time to ask:

"Why do you have this idea, it is really ridiculous... The legality of the rule today is beyond doubt... Only the stupidest idiot would want to rebel... Do you think I would be such an idiot? ?Or do you think my brain is abnormal and crazy?"

Nikolai Miluting curled his lips and was speechless. He wanted to say that what you meant just now, but now that Count Rostovtsev’s attitude doesn’t mean to support Konni at all, he really understands Wrong?

Nikolai Miliuting was confused. Count Rostovtsev’s unpredictability really made him unable to touch the wind. He could only smile and said: "Count, the problem is that your attitude just now... is too ambiguous. , People have to do that kind of association!"

Count Rostovtsev smiled apologetically: "Then this is my mistake. I just want to tell you, my young friend, I have never regretted the choice made in 1825. I chose your Majesty back then, and it is still the same now. !"

Nikolai Miluting nodded suddenly, but he still felt that something was wrong, but Count Rostovtsev’s resolute attitude did not seem to be fake~www.ltnovel.com~ After thinking about it, he just didn’t. Go tangled, this kind of brain-burning problem is better not to think about it!

Nicholas Miliuting left with a forehead number, but the old butler Igor sat down in the position where Miliuting was just now. He angrily said, "This guy is obviously Nicholas I. His diehards can't win you over!"

Count Rostovtsev glanced at him and asked calmly, "Why do you say that?"

Igor said: "It's obvious! Isn't what he said just now is not obvious enough?!"

Count Rostovtsev said disapprovingly: "I didn't hear anything, at least I didn't hear that Nikolai Alekseyevich meant someone die-hard!"

Igor was shocked, and said incredulously: "Are you deaf? He refuses to recognize the orthodox of Archduke Konstantin Pavlovich. Isn't that obvious enough!"

Count Rostovtsev suddenly smiled and said: "This is true, but don't you hear him say, "It can maintain the unity of Russia and promote the prosperity and strength of Russia. To achieve these two points, regardless of blood, they are the most qualified tsars and Romans." Descendants of the Nov family!' words?"
