Struggle in Russia

Vol 2 Chapter 504: Everyone has aspirations (Part 2)

Li Xiao expressed his concerns to Duke Alexander Gorchakov one by one. He said: "Although I am not particularly good at military affairs, as long as I seize the opportunity, I still have the possibility of getting ahead. ...Instead, I will encounter the suspicion of my uncle when entering the political world, but there is no room to play...I am still young, and it is not a bad thing to be in the army to accumulate merits and connections..."

   The Duke of Alexander nodded slowly. He could understand Li Xiao's thoughts and concerns. It was really annoying to have an uncle like Nicholas I staring at him, so it was okay to make some more secure choices.

It’s just that he still feels pity that he understands, and he once again persuaded him: "Grand Duke, I don’t think you may be safer to stay in the army... You must know that the most important thing your Majesty this person is the army. He regards military power. It’s very serious. If you develop contacts in the army, it will definitely arouse his suspicion. This choice is very dangerous!"

These words are also reasonable. Nicholas I valued the army the most. The first thing he did when he became the emperor was to strengthen the imperial power to control the army. Through various means, he did what the czar did not do before. Thoroughly tamed the army and turned the army and officers into his loyal dogs.

   No nobleman can seize power by launching a coup to abolish the czar like in the era of Peter the Great. The famous shooting army that has engaged in countless coups in history has never been able to do anything since the era of Nicholas I.

It’s okay for Li Xiao to stay in the army without using his ingenuity to make a career. Once he achieves something, he will inevitably be more hostile to Nicholas I. He will never allow this pesky nephew to engage in tricks in his own private plot. Eight.

  The Duke of Alexander would persuade him to leave the army, but Li Xiao would not listen. Because he was determined to do something for a long time, and he must not allow Russia to go back to the old path of history and continue to move forward three steps and two steps back. If he wants to push Russia’s broken car forward, he must control power, and he must There is influence in the army, otherwise everything is empty talk.

   So even if he knew that Nicholas I would be very jealous, Li Xiao still chose to develop in the army, and he really had to fight for this military power.

"You are right. Staying in the army to develop may be dangerous, but the greater the danger, the greater the gain... I believe that I can avoid danger and do a career with my ability!" ァ新ヤ~⑧~1~ Chinese website ωωω.χ~⒏~1zщ.còм

   Duke Alexander sighed in his heart. The reason why he persuades Li Xiao to enter politics is actually selfish. In his opinion, Li Xiao's level is higher than that of Prince Alexander and Grand Duke Constantine. It is indeed possible for someone to open up the situation in the army, and even if the time is right, it is possible to become one of the strongest figures in the army.

   In this way, Li Xiao threatened Prince Alexander too much. As a courtier, he believed that it was necessary to maintain the stability of the regime. Although Prince Alexander was mediocre, his succession would be good for the Russian political situation.

   On the contrary, someone who is too strong gave birth to some ambitions that shouldn't have, and then a new coup d’état would really tear Russia apart and plunge Russia into chaos.

   Therefore, the Duke of Alexander hopes that Li Xiao will leave the army. Without the support of the army, there is no way to talk about a coup. This is a good thing for everyone!

   It's a pity that Li Xiao is not so foolish. If Nicholas I's family treats him well, then he is probably willing to be a courtier who keeps himself safe, but this family is all innocent bastards, expecting him to complain with virtue? Save it!

   For Li Xiao, this hatred is definitely to be reported, and he is definitely not willing to be bullied and tortured, the difference is how far he can report. If he could regain the throne, it would be the best chance for this family to also taste the meat of the fish, but he also knew that the difficulty was not generally high.

Unless Nicholas I, Alexander II and Grand Duke Constantine, as well as Grand Duke Nikolai Nikolaevich and Grand Duke Mikhail Nikolaevich, are destroyed, it is Li Xiao's turn to inherit the right. Here.

   Generally speaking, this is simply impossible, so Li Xiao’s goal is actually more realistic, that is, to be a powerful minister who can make the Nicholas I family jealous and helplessly change the direction of Russian politics. Starting

   This goal is more realistic, and there are not so many obstacles to achieving it. I believe that a large number of people, including Duke Alexander Gorchakov, may not want to see Li Xiao as the emperor, but they will definitely not oppose his power in the hands.

Of course, Li Xiao won’t explain this for the time being. It’s good to know it. In addition, let old foxes like the Duke of Alexander have a sense of urgency, so that they can firmly attract their attention, so that they will not pay attention to the old for a while By myself.

  Why did Li Xiao attract the attention of important officials such as Duke Alexander? The reason is very simple, his current political status is too embarrassing, even if he is doing a good job ~ www.ltnovel.com~ under the suppression of Nicholas I can not make much noise.

   If Nicholas I’s conspiracy has been realized, the ruling and the public will think that Li Xiao is really a bastard, even if Nicholas I is dead, don’t even think about turning over.

But with the attention of the Duke Alexander and other important ministers, it is completely different. Maybe he still has not much reputation under the suppression of Nicholas I. But these ministers who really control the affairs of the country will not underestimate him, but will Appreciating his abilities, faintly more or less will help him complain and give him some opportunities to show off.

   And as long as Nicholas I is gone, there is no huge repressive power. As long as you follow these important ministers who are optimistic about him, you don't have to worry about not having the opportunity to display your talents. Will it be difficult to stand up then?

   For example, this time in Vienna, why did Duke Alexander want to keep him and persuade him to enter politics? It's not because Li Xiao has this ability and did beautiful things. Competent people are welcome everywhere, which is the advantage of staying attractive.

I believe that with the examples of Lazarev, the Duke of Alexander, and the Duke of Mikhail, more and more people will appreciate Li Xiao’s opportunity. At that time, even if Nicholas I or Alexander II wanted to suppress but could Can it be suppressed?

I have to say that Li Xiao is really a bit clever. Nicholas I used a despicable plot to suppress him, and he also used his own way to treat his body, seizing any opportunity to display his talents, but also using nothing. Rebuttable talent resists unfairness imposed on itself.

   And this will be a long-term contest. Wallachia and Vienna are just the beginning...
