Struggle in Russia

Chapter 633: Explain in detail (Part 2)

Crown Prince Alexander thought about it. If he were Menshikov, he might have the same attitude. He could show a certain degree of closeness to him, but he would not approach him wholeheartedly. It would be in his best interest to keep a certain distance.

But, Crown Prince Alexander doesn't like this state. The older the Grand Duke Constantine, the more restless he is. In the past two years, he has been jumping up and down to develop his power. How can he feel at ease?

Especially his old father, who often favors the Grand Duke Constantine, makes him feel more crisis. Can you say that he is easy as the crown prince?

Crown Prince Alexander, who had a deep sense of crisis for a while, fell silent, thinking about it worriedly. But Dmitry Milutin suddenly said: "Your Highness, please forgive me, you can befriend Prince Menshikov, but it is best to have a degree! Not only because His Excellency cannot support you wholeheartedly , at best, it can only add to the icing on the cake and cannot give timely help. It is also because of your majesty, you have to care about your majesty's feelings!"

Crown Prince Alexander was stunned, because he didn't understand what it meant to be scruples about Nicholas I's feelings. Dmitry Milyutin looked at Crown Prince Alexander, who was a little confused, and could only sigh in his heart, and then reminded:

"Your Highness, Prince Menshikov, Duke Chernyshov, and Count Adlerberg are indeed important ministers, but precisely because they are so important, you must keep a proper distance from them! "

Crown Prince Alexander is still in a daze, wondering why these people are so important but keep their distance? Is this a mistake? Just because they are so important, they should try their best to win them over! The new 81 Chinese website is the fastest updated computer terminal: www.@x81zw@@

Dmitry Milutin looked around and explained in a low voice: "Your Highness, you know that they are His Majesty's courtiers first and foremost. If these people are very close to you, what will Your Majesty think?"

Crown Prince Alexander shuddered suddenly, and he finally understood. After all, the example of his uncle Alexander I is still there. When Paul I was alive, Alexander I was more popular in the ruling and opposition parties. There are even rumors that Catherine the Great wants to pass the throne to this grandson rather than being stubborn and awkward silly son.

Later, Alexander I was able to ascend the throne because of the role of the group of important ministers who were close to him. Without them plotting to kill Paul I, would Alexander I be able to become emperor?

Although this is a special case, after all, less than 50 years have passed and bloody examples are still there. Do you think Nicholas I can't see it? Taking a step back, even if the Crown Prince Alexander did not have the second ambition of Alexander I, but all the important officials in the government and the opposition are close to the Crown Prince, doesn't it mean that the emperor is emptied in disguise? Which emperor can bear this?

Crown Prince Alexander was taken aback. He felt a deep chill for the first time. In other words, the more he made friends with those important ministers, the more I would dislike him and be wary of him. That's why he supported Grand Duke Constantine and him all these years. He played against Taiwan, that's why he was so harsh on him every time!

Crown Prince Alexander swallowed hard. He felt that he had found the root cause of the unsatisfactory past few years. Was it because he was too active? But now that he is asked to change course, he doesn't know what to do. After all, Grand Duke Constantine is also sparing no effort to win over ministers. If he doesn't keep up, what will happen if the government and the opposition become supporters of Grand Duke Constantine?

Crown Prince Alexander's thoughts are not unreasonable, but they just can't stand careful scrutiny. Dmitry Milutin can only persuade him earnestly: "Your Highness, the reason why Grand Duke Constantine has the current status is entirely because of His Majesty. In order to balance your considerations, as long as you don't continue to put pressure on His Majesty, His Majesty's support for Grand Duke Constantine will become less and less.

All in all, the calmer you are and the more Grand Duke Constantine doesn't hold back, it's His Majesty's turn to beat him hard! "

To say that Crown Prince Alexander fully believed that would not be the case, but he felt that what Dmitry Milyutin said was quite reasonable, at least it was worth trying because now he really didn't have any tricks.

Because the attitude of Menshikov and his group disappointed him so much that they took him for a fool. If he foolishly indulged them again, he would be so stupid.

But he still has doubts: "So I can only stay stupid and be a good son and brother who doesn't care about anything?"

Dmitry Milyutin immediately denied: "No, of course you can't just do nothing. You should do what you have to do, that is, don't let His Majesty think that you are secretly buying people's hearts and plotting wrongdoing. Keep a distance from the important ministers, and you should You handle state affairs completely impartially, and try your best to make friends with those young people who are not in high positions..."

Crown Prince Alexander thought about it and thought it was a good idea. If he could make Nicholas I feel that he was doing everything for the public good without favoritism, and he didn't form cliques, he probably wouldn't have such opinions. As for making friends with young people, it's not impossible, anyway, he doesn't like dealing with those old foxes, because it's really tiring!

Crown Prince Alexander nodded and asked, "Then which young talents do you think I should make friends with first?"

Dmitry Milyutin looked into the eyes of Crown Prince Alexander without hesitation, and replied frankly: "Count Alexei Speransky!"

Crown Prince Alexander was a little surprised: "Why him? Didn't you see that Grand Duke Constantine tried his best to speak good words for him before! Obviously, he is definitely a member of Grand Duke Constantine!"

Dmitry Milyutin did not immediately defend Alexei, even though he already knew where the earl was following through the relationship of Count Rostovtsev, it had absolutely nothing to do with Grand Duke Constantine. But it is definitely impossible for him to tell Crown Prince Alexander directly about this level of inside story, and he must not let Crown Prince Alexander feel that he is speaking well for Alexei, so that the crown prince will think that he and Alexei are in the same group.

Count Rostovtsev had warned him not to give the impression of being a faction in front of the crown prince, and it was better to behave aloofly, so that his position would be more stable and it would be easier to gain the trust of the crown prince.

So Dmitry Milyutin replied naturally: "From the situation of the imperial meeting, it is very likely that, as you said, Grand Duke Constantine has a relationship with Count Speransky. The candidate that Grand Duke Standing tried his best to win over, otherwise he would not be able to recommend this person so hard!"
