When Crown Prince Alexander agreed with his suggestion, Baryatinsky secretly cheered, thinking that this wave should be stable. But what he didn't expect was that Dmitry Milyutin even though he agreed with his strategy on the surface,
, but actually sang the opposite tune.
What's especially bad is that he also raised a question that seems very realistic and reasonable - Count Speransky is not the opponent of Grand Duke Constantine, and it is probably unrealistic to rely on him to consume Grand Duke Constantine in large quantities.
The only way to realize Baryatinsky's intention is to secretly support Count Speransky. But this is really not what Baryatinsky wants!
Anyway, Baryatinsky had a headache because he didn't know how to convince Crown Prince Alexander, because Dmitri's words seemed too reasonable.
After thinking for a moment, he still insisted: "Your Highness, I don't think we should intervene directly. After all, His Majesty is watching. It would be difficult if His Majesty thinks that you are deliberately trying to cause trouble..."
Crown Prince Alexander hesitated again, and Demetrius said lightly: "In that case, doesn't it mean sitting back and watching Archduke Constantine annex Wallachia? Once he takes control of Wallachia and Molda
Via, with his character, will definitely do something big, and it may not be impossible for him to make a comeback at that time!"
Well, Baryatinsky felt even more uncomfortable, because he found that Dmitri was right. Once Grand Duke Constantine took control of Moldavia and Wallachia, he might really be able to make great achievements.
Fists and kicks.
Of course, Baryatinsky did not think that Grand Duke Constantine could use this to make a comeback, because now as long as there is no trick in his mind, he can see that the prince in Nicholas I's mind is Crown Prince Alexander, and the status of the crown prince is almost unshakable.
, Grand Duke Constantine had no chance at all.
What Baryatinsky was really worried about was that Grand Duke Constantine, who controlled Moldavia and Wallachia, might really mess around. His background was completely different from Alexei's. Regardless of Alexei's
Whether it was a case of selling sheep's head to dog's meat in Wallachia, he did not dare to openly carry out reforms.
But Grand Duke Constantine is different. He doesn't care about those gossips at all, and his consistent position is to change reforms, so he will definitely make a fuss. He really took control of Wallachia and Moldavia.
, for Baryatinsky, it was like driving away a less dangerous cub Alexei but ushering in a more dangerous tiger Grand Duke Konstantin. The latter can really eat people!
Suddenly, Baryatinsky felt a pain in his stomach, because he suddenly discovered that this was a paradox. Both Grand Duke Constantine and Alexei were reformists. No matter who won or lost, it would be the same in the end.
It was the reformists who won. So what was the purpose of his deliberate calculation?
Baryatinsky was a little bald. He realized that he had done a stupid thing, and now he could not take back what he said. All in all, he was in a dilemma.
After thinking for a long time, he reluctantly said to Crown Prince Alexander, who had been looking at him expectantly: "Count Dmitry's words make sense. We really cannot sit idly by and ignore Grand Duke Constantine, but we can't
You can’t get involved too deeply, just give Count Speransky a little help..."
Baryatinsky was very angry because he felt that he failed to complete a vital mission and failed to live up to the expectations of an elder. This made him very unhappy. So he finally left Crown Prince Alexander.
When he entered the office, he gave Dmitri Milyutin a vicious look, and that resentment almost turned into reality.
"Dear Count Uvarov, I'm sorry to disappoint you." Baryatinsky said to Uvarov apologetically, "Today I failed to persuade the crown prince not to interfere with Grand Duke Constantine and Speran.
I tried my best to stop Count Ski's fight, but it was all messed up by Dmitry Milyutin!"
Uvarov frowned slightly. Only he knew how disappointed and surprised he actually was, because he really had high hopes for Baryatinsky and hoped that the young Duke would fulfill his long-cherished wish for many years.
But Baryatinsky failed, which really shocked him, because he was the only one who knew what Baryatinsky's position was with Crown Prince Alexander.
Baryatinsky, who went on a killing spree in the Caucasus and made the Iranians cry for father and mother, can be said to be Russia's new rising god of war. He was the backbone of the military for Crown Prince Alexander, and even Nicholas I admired him very much.
This young man is ready to take on a heavy responsibility.
But it is simply unbelievable that such a person was defeated by Dmitry Milyutin. Could it be that the influence of this unknown Dmitri on Crown Prince Alexander has reached this level?
Uvarov immediately became very wary of Dmitry Milyutin. As the leader behind the Russian conservative forces, he was full of worries about the future of Russia. Although under the rule of Nicholas I in recent years,
The conservative forces have maintained absolute dominance, but those reformists who are unwilling to give up are always like the immortal saints, killing off one group and then growing another, and they simply cannot kill them all.
It is precisely because of this that Uvarov pays special attention to the young talents of the reformists. Whenever he has the opportunity, he will kill these young people and eliminate them without giving them the opportunity to continue to grow. If Dmitry Milyutin is the same
If there is a latent reformist, then he must be eliminated, otherwise there will be endless troubles!
"Tell me what happened!" Uvarov ordered calmly.
When Baryatinsky told what happened in detail, especially after repeating Dmitri's speech repeatedly, Uvarov fell into deep thought. It was not that he saw through Dmitri's disguise, but that
It became increasingly difficult for him to grasp Dmitry's true political leanings.
Because Dmitri's speech was flawless, he was not opposed to the elimination of the reformists. From the beginning to the end, he analyzed the pros and cons from the perspective of Crown Prince Alexander, without the slightest tendency. But the more Uvaro was like this
The more my husband feels that this person is dangerous! He will never allow any uncertainty around Crown Prince Alexander!
"I know!" Uvarov snorted and told Baryatinsky: "Don't worry about Dmitry Milyutin's affairs. I will find out his details. What's your current situation?"
The task is to pretend that nothing happened, to numb him and not attract his attention, and leave everything to me!"
