The scene that Viscount Prozolov hoped to see finally appeared. The aristocratic circle in Bucharest finally began to have undercurrents. Various people and forces were ready to move, and there was a feeling that a storm was about to come.
But he was not satisfied, because this level of commotion was not enough, the water was not muddy enough and people's hearts were not chaotic enough. What he wanted was rough waves, which must boil like water in a pot.
A conspirator like him would always add fuel to the fire at times like this, but what made him more depressed was that he found that the fuel in his hand seemed to be a bit insufficient.
In other words, the candidate to add fuel to the fire is very troublesome. According to his original plan, Melikov should be the most suitable candidate, but who made the plan change midway? This guy fell out with him and Golitsyn. Now it is completely different.
controlled state.
It was simply impossible to expect this guy to go out and stir up trouble, so Viscount Prozolov was troubled and troubled. The trouble was that he didn't have enough manpower or cannon fodder, and the trouble was that he didn't want to give up this opportunity.
Not wanting to give up the opportunity means that he can only take action personally, but taking action personally is inconsistent with his temperament as the mastermind behind the scenes. As a professional conspirator, he always insists on one thing - others are chess pieces and he is the one playing chess.
Once he is officially out as a chess player, there will be too many uncertain factors. The most intuitive thing is that if something goes wrong, he will have no room for maneuver.
But if he doesn't take action in this situation and add fuel to the fire, it's hard to say how the situation will develop. The previous temptation has exposed him to Alexei, and if nothing else happens, the other party will keep a close eye on him.
Give him a chance to continue causing trouble. It's just Alexei's method. Without his interference, it is really possible to stabilize the situation. Then wouldn't all the previous efforts be in vain?
Viscount Prozolov hates failure more than unpredictable dangers. He has learned from his mother an experience that is more valuable than gold, that is, the winner wins everything, and the loser loses nothing. From the time when his mother fought for
From the moment the Grand Duchess's throne failed, this was deeply remembered in his heart.
He suddenly asked: "What changes have occurred in Count Vladimir's condition?"
"Everything is as usual, I still have a fever, the situation is still not optimistic..."
Viscount Prozolov tapped his slender index finger on the table, which he would do subconsciously whenever he hesitated.
After a long while, he said: "Observe his situation closely. If there are any changes, I will know immediately!"
Viscount Prozolov decided to wait patiently. Count Vladimir would be the last straw that broke the camel's back. As long as this count really died, Alexey's pressure would be unprecedentedly huge.
At that time, he didn't believe that the other party could be so stubborn and not bow down.
Of course, if the count's condition improves, he will not sit idly by. At that time, the insider he arranged will act as a trump card and will directly kill Count Vladimir. At that time, Alexei will have to take the blame.
Memorized.
However, he will not make this decision until the last moment, because the risk is still high. Judging from the current situation, Count Vladimir may not be able to survive it. It is better to wait...
This wait lasted a week, and the news that came was not all good. As he failed to further add fuel to the fire, the nobles in Bucharest who were about to move seemed to have stopped. What was worse was not this end, but the
The worst thing is that the insider he placed next to Count Vladimir came with the worst news - Count Vladimir's condition has improved greatly!
Scarlet fever is like this. If you can survive it, you'll be fine. If you can't, you'll be dead. A scourge like Count Vladimir's life is too tough. If you survive the most dangerous period, you will slowly recover.
But that's not what Viscount Prozolov wants. He wants Count Vladimir to keep his hair straight. Only in this way can he fish in troubled waters.
Finally, Viscount Prozolov made up his mind. He could no longer sit idly by: "Give the poison to the insider and let him kill Count Vladimir as soon as possible!"
"What?!"
This order frightened his subordinates, because it was one thing to kill Golitsyn, but it was another thing to kill Count Vladimir. After all, that person was the flesh and blood of Nicholas I. If he
Being poisoned will cause an uproar!
The frightened subordinates quickly persuaded: "Isn't this too risky? What's more, once Count Vladimir is poisoned, Alexey will not be able to explain. Is this..."
Of course, Viscount Prozolov knew the risks involved, and he also knew that Alexei would face unimaginable pressure, but he always believed that the risk was worth it. After all, if he did not take the risk, there would be nothing to do with Grand Duke Constantine. Taking the risk
Most of the risk is Alexei's. Even if His Highness the Grand Duke fails to save him in the end, if someone else becomes the Governor of Wallachia, Grand Duke Constantine, he can still use coercion and inducement. The next Governor may not have Alexei.
Lexie is so tough.
Anyway, Viscount Prozolov thought that he would not suffer any loss, so he must do it!
"Do it! Don't be whiny, I will take all the responsibilities!"
With this order from him, Count Vladimir's fate was almost sealed. If nothing else happened, he would soon be poisoned and die, and then Viscount Prozolov could go to the Governor's Mansion again to show off his power and persecute people.
Alexei gave in.
To be honest, he couldn't wait for this, so he was ready early, waiting for Alexei to send someone to come to invite him, and he did wait for this moment, and suddenly in the morning,
The Governor's Office sent someone to invite him.
【Hahaha!】
Viscount Prozolov wanted to look up to the sky and laugh, because he knew that he had won the bet again. He had won all Alexey's chips in one go, and he could do whatever he wanted next.
This made him in a good mood. When he walked into the Governor's Mansion, he was a little shaky. He walked in like a winner, especially when he saw that Li Xiao was also present, he was in a good mood.
It was even more satisfying, because he felt that he had won back all the money and profits in the game that his mother had lost.
He couldn't help but think about what would happen to Li Xiao. It would definitely be tragic, because Li Xiao was destined to be the one to take the blame, and Nicholas I would be very happy to let Li Xiao be buried with Count Vladimir.
When he thought that Li Xiao would die under his own plan, he felt that his old mother would be very happy that she could finally let out such a bad breath!
