Struggle in Russia

【Struggle in Tsarist Russia】 【】

Alexander II was determined to change the power of the conservatives and eliminate all the old bones of his generation. He wanted to cultivate a group of younger people who were more loyal to him.

But old Adlerberg is obviously not among this group. What's more important is that this old guy is also very slippery. He is a lucky minister who can't do important tasks and is useless at critical moments.

The most important thing Alexander II lacked was happy ministers, so naturally he did not allow the old fox to ascend to the highest position.

After dealing with the matter of old Adlerberg, Alexander II thought about Li Xiao's side again. He became more and more disgusted with this cousin. He would jump out to cause trouble every now and then. Grand Duke Constantine's side had not yet After that, he began to torment the Ministry of Justice again. Does this guy want to overthrow the world?

Alexander II felt that Li Xiao had to be cured. He said to Count Rostovtsev: "Count, it seems that it was a mistake to let that bastard manage the Third Department of St. Petersburg. We must try to transfer him, otherwise we may not be able to return him." What trouble will it cause!"

Count Rostovtsev was secretly amused: You knew it too late. Who made you stingy and unwilling to reward according to your merits? But it’s easy to ask God but hard to send him away, so just bear with it!

"Your Majesty, it may not be that easy to transfer Archduke Andrei. Judging from this action against the Ministry of Justice, it seems that the liberal elements trust and rely on him very much, and there is no way you will allow him to be replaced."

Alexander II clicked his tongue, why didn't he have a headache about this problem. If he hadn't been worried about those reformist bastards, he would have cut someone into big pieces and thrown them out to feed the dogs.

"Can I just watch him be arrogant and proud?" Alexander II said angrily.

Count Rostovtsev hesitated for a moment and replied: "At least you can't touch him for the time being, otherwise I'm afraid it will irritate those free elements, and one bad move will cause big trouble!"

Alexander II said helplessly: "Can't you think of a way? Earl."

Count Rostovtsev sighed and said: "Sorry, there is really no good way... In my opinion, the only way is to try to distract Grand Duke Andrei's energy so that he has no time to mess around!"

Alexander II suddenly became interested and asked: "How to do it?"

Count Rostovtsev replied: "Isn't he my deputy on the Committee for the Reform of Serfdom? Why don't I find something for him to do?"

Alexander II thought this was a good idea. The Serfdom Reform Committee was a well-known retreat department, and all work must be approved by him before it could be completed. What's more, Count Rostovtsev is still watching. Even if someone has three heads and six arms, he can't make any waves, right?

He immediately made a decision and said: "Then let's do it. You can assign him more work immediately and make sure that he doesn't have the energy to mess around!"

Of course, Count Rostovtsev would not have any objection to this. In this way, he could communicate with someone legitimately. To be honest, he wanted to hear someone's opinion on many reform policies. Someone showed great performance in this regard. A very high vision. With such a person helping to make suggestions, I think we can better improve the reform policy.

What's more important is that he can also observe and guide someone at close range, and he can also protect someone under his wings.

He knew exactly what happened within the reformists some time ago, and he was extremely speechless about those pink-eyes.

Of course, the small knives within the reformists are not that powerful. What's more terrible is that someone's increasingly outstanding performance has attracted the attention of conservatives. Some ruthless old diehards have already targeted someone. As expected, If you do, you'll get dirty soon.

If someone is allowed to float outside, a bad person may really suffer a big loss. But staying by his side and being looked after by him can reduce a lot of dangers. At least it can make those who do evil things mistakenly think that they are suppressing someone, and naturally they will have no interest in doing anything.

I have to say that Count Rostovtsev is quite good to Li Xiao. Even if there was a big fuss over the Ukraine issue before, he would never hesitate to lend a helping hand.

It is really lucky for Li Xiao to have such an old guardian, and also lucky for the reformists. Otherwise, the state of disunity within the reformists would probably be even more chaotic than that of the conservatives.

Soon Li Xiao got the news and asked him to report to the Serfdom System Reform Committee immediately. He was both surprised and not surprised by this.

Count Rostovtsev had asked him to walk around more before, and that time he was reminded in advance. Although Li Xiao wasn't sure why, but with Count Rostovtsev's foresight, there must be a reason for this.

The only annoying thing is that the person never wants to explain the reason directly, and always hides it for you to guess.

As for Li Xiao being a little surprised, that's normal. After all, this time is worthy of careful consideration. Ordinarily, his current task is not easy, and he shouldn't bring up other things to distract his attention.

With Count Rostovtsev's eyesight, it is impossible not to see this, but he still did it. There may be something wrong with it!

Li Xiao felt that a storm was coming, and it was impossible not to go. Count Rostovtsev had spoken. In addition, Alexander II had also issued an order, and he could not tolerate a single word of no.

Thinking of this, he called Alexei and Vishniak: "I'm afraid I won't be able to escape in a short time if I go to the Serfdom Reform Committee, but the matter at the Ministry of Justice is not over yet, so I can only ask you to keep an eye on it for me. Especially It’s you, Alyosha, you have better information within the Ministry of Justice. Once you find out anything, you will inform me as soon as possible so that I can take action as soon as possible.”

Alexey smiled bitterly and said: "I'm afraid I'm not as well-informed as you think. It's not like you don't know that the old guys in the Ministry of Justice all regard me as an enemy and guard me like a thief. No matter what internal information they have, You won’t tell me!”

Li Xiao said sincerely: "Of course I know your difficulties, but I finally managed to squeeze you in, isn't it just to disintegrate them from within? What's more, as I arrested a group of their people, the Ministry of Justice will inevitably When people are nervous and people are nervous, this is your chance!”

Alexey nodded and said: "I know, but it takes time, but time is running out now, and I'm worried that the enemy won't give us so much time!"

This is true. Isn't the reason why Li Xiao does so many things just to gain the initiative and gain time?

But objectively speaking, the time gained is not particularly large, at least not enough for Alexey to calmly establish a foothold in the Ministry of Justice and open up the situation.

Li Xiao didn't have a good way to do this. Many things take time to settle. The consequence of taking shortcuts is that haste makes waste...
