Although Schwarzenberg is in a bad mood, he is not desperate for the future. The reason is very simple. Although his level as a politician is not high, he still has the most basic judgment ability.

Soon he also realized where the crux of the problem was, so on the one hand he began to repair his relationship with Wendisch Gretz, and on the other hand he was waiting for Duke Alexander to visit him.

Yes, Schwarzenberg also realized that Russia should not give up on him. As long as he still has the support of Russia, then other political forces and individuals in Austria will not be able to get the support of Russia. It is impossible to replace it. After all, the situation in Austria is now obvious, and it cannot survive without the support of Russia!

But the reason why he is not a qualified politician is that he was waiting for Duke Alexander to visit instead of visiting Duke Alexander himself. I have to say that this was a major mistake.

If it were Metternich, then this unscrupulous old man would definitely not wait stupidly, but would go to Duke Alexander immediately. It's a thousand miles away. And this is the key to the fact that Metternich was a formidable statesman while he was an entry-level statesman.

Of course, the reason why Schwarzenberg did not go to see Duke Alexander was not only because his thick black knowledge was not good enough, but also because his judgment was not particularly accurate. His basic judgment was that Russia would not give up on him, so he was a bit confident and didn't feel too nervous. He felt that at most he would be blackmailed by the Russians, and then he would be fine.

Even, he thinks to avoid being blackmailed too hard by the Russians, so it's better not to be so proactive, and not let the Russians think that he can't get along with them without Schwarzenberg.

It can only be said that this is a bit outrageously wrong, because Schwarzenberg did not realize that the initiative is not with him at all, or that if the Russians want to rip off, it is useless if he does not take the initiative to come to the door!

why?

It's easy! How could a shrewd old fox like Duke Alexander not be able to judge the situation, and how could he not know how much he would be ripped off? How much you beat does not depend on Schwarzenberg's attitude, but on how bad his current situation is.

This is not something that you, Schwarzenberg, pretend to be calm and play a light and calm thing that can be fooled. Besides, who can you deceive with this little disguise? At least don't try to deceive Duke Alexander.

If Duke Alexander is black-hearted, or simply wants to bring down Austria, then he can completely ignore you and give you a fatal blow when Schwarzenberg can't pretend anymore.

Of course, Duke Alexander did not do that, not because he was not black-hearted enough, but because he judged that the timing and timing of the door-to-door visit at this time were just right, which was in his best interest!

At this point, Schwarzenberg's life is a little bit sad, but not to the point of collapse. And the violent temper of Nicholas I in China has also subsided a little, and he is not so impulsive for the time being. In other words, Nicholas I will gradually begin to feel that Austria is still useful, and he cannot just watch them die like this.

This also means that Duke Alexander must take some action to tell Nicholas I that he is still quite obedient, serving him wholeheartedly, and is a great loyal minister.

Anyway, Duke Alexander was just right about the proportions, no more, no less, just so appropriate.

As for Schwarzenberg, he was really on the verge of losing his mind. He thought that his strategy of adding calm had worked, making the Russians unable to sit still, and felt that he could avoid being taken for a ride.

"Your Excellency, regarding the specific whereabouts of the assassins, I can only say that our country is doing its best to arrest them. I believe that these murderers will be caught before the special investigation team sent by your country arrives in Vienna in the near future!"

Duke Alexander's door-to-door rip-offs naturally couldn't be too fruitful, so the pretext for his formal visit to Schwarzenberg was to inquire about the detection of the assassination case.

But, this reason is not so good for Schwarzenberg, because he was forced to make major concessions to Russia, was forced to agree to the establishment of a joint investigation team, and was forced to He promised to strictly prohibit the activities of Polish Zionism in the territory, and was even forced to ensure that there would be no space for any anti-Russian organization to operate in Austria.

And after these "traitorous" conditions were exposed, he was criticized verbally and in writing by the opposition. At one time, there were angry patriotic youths waiting in front of his house every day, and they were constantly thrown gloves by patriotic youths begging for a duel, which made him miserable.

And now, which pot does not open and which pot does Duke Alexander carry, Hong Guoguo has uncovered his scars, do you think he can give a good face?

However, Duke Alexander didn't care much about this. He knew very well that Schwarzenberg was just talking hard and just letting out a sigh of relief. As for the nonsense that the murderer would be arrested before the Russian investigation team arrived in Vienna, he didn't believe a word.

Because he was too familiar with the murderer, apart from Li Xiao, who was not involved in the assassination at all, the other murderers left Hungary long after the incident was completed, and now they are enjoying life in Pest? No matter how powerful Schwarzenberg is, you can't go to Kossuth's territory to arrest people! If Schwarzenberg did this, it would be tantamount to delivering food directly.

So, Duke Alexander didn't care about such trash talk at all, but instead waited to see the joke afterwards. Of course, this joke is not that big. After all, according to the agreement between the two countries, the joint investigation team will be responsible for the final assassination case. Since the murderer has already run away, the Russians will not be able to achieve anything if they come. They have to accompany them. Make jokes together.

But the problem is not too big, because he has already reached a tacit agreement with the Duke of Aldorf, the investigation team sent by the third part will not go so fast, and will try to give Schwarzenberg as much time as possible, and Li Xiao will also cooperate in acting in the future, so that the Russian investigation team will not appear so incompetent.

So in the end, only Schwarzenberg was the one who made jokes.

So Duke Alexander said with a faint smile: "It would be best if you can catch the murderer as soon as possible... However, according to my observation, your reconnaissance operations these days have yielded nothing... To put it bluntly, it is nothing at all. waste time!"

Schwarzenberg's face turned red with anger, he gritted his teeth and wanted to fight back, but after hesitating for a moment, he gave up, because in a sense, Duke Alexander was right, the reconnaissance operation was not going well, basically nothing... …
