Does Li Xiao want to get help from his friends? Naturally I thought about it, because Nicholas I kept staring at him, which made him feel extremely aggrieved. Thinking of him as a majestic Tsarist Grand Duke, but in the first 18 years, he lived like a poor nobleman. What do you call this? .

True, his cheap mother is Polish, but what's the matter? No matter how you say it, you have to give him a little face, not to mention enjoying the luxurious package treatment of the Grand Duke of Tsarist Russia. Not going to give it to him.

This uncle can bear aunt but also can't bear it!

Li Xiao was naturally very upset, and naturally wanted to change the current embarrassing situation. But he also knows that if he can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, his friends are loyal enough. As long as he asks for help, these people will help him.

But, things can't be done that way. After all, you can't just think about yourself in everything, you have to think more about it from the position of others. Leonid and Alexei have a strong family background, and the other has just become the governor of Wallachia and is regarded as a feudal official. They want to pull him, not too easily.

But in this way, they must have hated Nicholas I. Li Xiao was too aware of the personality of this small-bellied old naughty and cheap uncle, and he really wanted revenge. If you make him uncomfortable for a while, he will make you uncomfortable for a lifetime.

There is no need to hinder the bright future of these two good friends because of the momentary pleasure. Anyway, Li Xiao thought very openly, he was only eighteen years old, he had plenty of time to wait. And how many days does his old naughty uncle have? It's seven or eight years to count. Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, let alone seven or eight years!

So Li Xiao is not in a hurry at all, but is slowly accumulating contacts and resources. Wallachia is the first step. As Alexey has established a firm foothold here, and as he has further consolidated his relationship with the Gorchakov family, it is not too difficult to climb slowly, but it is not too difficult. The way is to reach the sky in one step like those normal royal relatives.

Is it good to step up to the sky? Naturally, it is very cool, but well, the foundation is not solid. If you take Grand Duke Constantine as an example, he was a rear admiral and assistant to the Minister of the Navy. The starting point is frighteningly high.

But did he really know the navy, was he adept at it?

I'm afraid that's not the case. This guy has only a half-knowledge about the navy, and most of his energy is devoted to online party members and power struggles. Navy affairs are only half a bucket of water. And professional things are most afraid of half a bucket of water. They seem to understand, but in fact they don't know why.

If it wasn't for Nicholas I who always liked this son, the true level of Grand Duke Constantine would be nothing!

And this little guy who knows nothing about the basic level of the navy,

It's easy to be fooled by the people below, anyway, Li Xiao doesn't want to be played like a monkey.

What's more, so what if he can be the head of the department now? The whole of Russia has to revolve around the will of Nicholas I. Do you want reform? Looking for a career? It's just a dream!

Look at Grand Duke Constantine, who has always wanted to carry out reforms in the navy, but even though he is the favorite son of Nicholas I, he is still beaten by an old stubborn like Menshikov, and he can only stare blankly.

Anyway, Li Xiao has had enough of being aggrieved like this. He would rather hide below and develop his power freely, and climb up when the time is right.

Naturally, Li Xiao just patted Alexei on the shoulder, appreciating his kindness. Now he is only going to take a good look at the relationship between Duke Mikhail or Duke Alexander, and go to an embassie of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to mix errands, for example, it would be good to hang out with Duke Alexander in Austria.

With the protection of Duke Alexander, you can do things with confidence, so why not do it?

Naturally, none of the pretenders of the Grand Duke of Wallachia dared to refuse Alexei's request. As for Duke Mikhail, he was naturally happy to see it come true. Which soldier doesn't like medals? Even if it is Wallachia's foreign medals, although they are incomparable with domestic ones, they can't stand the high level of medals given by others!

Almost a month later, Nicholas I's reply came. His Majesty drew a circle in the list of candidates submitted by Alexei, and Barbu Shtilbey became the Vala as he wished. The new Grand Duke of the Grand Duchy of Guinea.

And this also means that the awarding conference planned by Li Xiao can start. First of all, it is naturally the awarding of honors. Legion Medal of Honor.

According to the resolution of the Wallachia Provisional Council, the Legion Medal of Honor is the highest honor medal in Wallachia, and it is awarded to domestic and foreign generals who have made great achievements for Wallachia.

The medal is made of gold and weighs about 50 grams. It has a cross structure, surrounded by swords, rifles and cannon elements. The most precious thing is that in addition to a ten-carat ruby ​​in the center of the cross, the two sections are also covered with broken diamonds. . Anyway, the value of the material of the Medal of Light itself is as high as about 100,000 rubles, which is really extremely valuable.

Of course, for a big man like Duke Mikhail, money is not very important, what is important is this honor, because he was also awarded the title of Guardian of Wallachia at the same time, which is really awesome.

Also awarded the Order of Honor of the Wallachian Legion was General Lazarev, who also received the title of Count of Bucharest. Then the generals at the next level are also happy to receive the Wallachia Cross and the title of Viscount.

Then at the middle and lower levels, such as small officers like Vishniak, many outstanding performers have also won the title of baron and the Gold Star of Wallachia. In the end, those with a lower level of credit, such as Boris and Li Xiao, have only one Gold Star of Wallachia.

Anyway, after the awarding ceremony, Boris was very envious of Vishniak, because the baron ribbon on the other party really made him salivate. For a poor nobleman like him, he was willing to risk his life for such a title. . He was even willing to trade his fiancée, Miss Pafra, and Vishniak for the baronial title.

"It seems that Vyshka's heart has been settled," Alexei said to Li Xiao with a smile while looking at the two people: "Your method really works, but it's just a pain for Boris, and it can only make him feel wronged." It's over."

Yes, according to Alexei's original plan, Boris also had the title of baron, but Li Xiao persuaded him to remove it. The reason is very simple. Nyak was even more delighted. After all, if Boris was also a baron, his surprise would be much smaller.

What's more, this is also a stimulus to Boris, lest he be content and only think about his wife and children, and lose his fighting spirit...
