Of course, Li Xiao knew that Petrovna was a key figure. She was very likely to know Count Shuvalov's overall plan. It was not particularly difficult to catch her and torture her to get the answer.
But Li Xiao didn't want to do this. It wasn't because his Holy Mother Heart burst out, but because he didn't want to disturb Count Shuvalov's plan. It can be imagined that once Petrovna was touched, Shuvalov would immediately take action with his vigilance.
You will find that if something goes wrong, you will give up the original plan immediately.
Wouldn't that be a waste of gains for Bestuzhev, Ryuming and Grand Duke Konstantin? Li Xiao didn't have a dime of affection for these two guys. He would never have cooperated with them unless it was absolutely necessary.
But if you look at the attitude of these two bastards after they cooperated, they still wanted to do their own thing and take advantage of the situation. This is very uncomfortable.
Li Xiao had no doubt that if they were not taught a profound lesson and continued to suffer, both the Black Sea Fleet, Wallachia and Moldavia would become out of control.
Li Xiao doesn't care about Moldavia, it's not his business, but Kornilov and Nasimov in Wallachia and the Black Sea Fleet are his close friends, and they must not be left alone. So this time Shuva
When Love wanted to attack Bestuzhev Ryuming, he could only applaud him.
Of course, he is not just secretly happy, he is also thinking about whether he can get a share of the pie. After all, the boss of the third department in Kiev has a lot of power, and Ukraine is very important in the future Crimean War. It can be said that it is a big one.
rear.
If you can get involved in this rear area and manage it well in the future, you may have good harvests!
However, Li Xiao also knows that if he wants to seek the position of director of the third department of Kiev, it is basically wishful thinking. His old and cunning uncle will never agree. And to be honest, Li Xiao himself is a little far away from this position.
It's far away, only two or three steps away! It's impossible to jump up like a rocket.
So the way he thought of was to notify his ally Count Rostovtsev, believing that the count must have someone suitable for this position! And this can be regarded as repaying the favor last time. If he hadn't traveled all the way to deliver the letter last time,
The Black Sea Fleet will definitely not be able to escape Uvarov's clutches. This favor is not light, and even a mere director of Kiev's third department may not be able to do it!
In view of these insider reasons, Li Xiao didn't want to alert the snake. So he said to Anton: "Don't alert that woman, use Shuvalov's hand to deal with Bestuzhev. It's also a good thing to stay clear. Kostya got involved with him.
I’m afraid it will make us uneasy!”
Anton is not an unreasonable person. When they left Sevastopol, Grand Justice Konstantin was looking for trouble with Kornilov and Nassimov. The little fat man would not do it without discounting his right-hand man.
honest.
"But in this case, it will be difficult for us to figure out what Shuvalov wants to do!" Anton replied with some worry.
Li Xiao thought for a while and said: "It doesn't matter, I have already warned St. Petersburg and told them that Bestuzhev. Liuming is being targeted by Shuvalov and may collapse. With this reminder, St. Petersburg will know what to do."
made!"
With Count Rostovtsev's wisdom, he certainly knows what to do. He will not fail to see the importance of Ukraine's future. It is very likely that he will compete for the position of Minister of the Third Department of Kiev before Count Uvarov.
Location.
However, Li Xiao also knew that although Count Rostovtsev could take action in advance with this reminder, it did not mean that he would definitely succeed. After all, Uvarov was not a vegetarian, and look at Shuvalov.
The posture is probably because they are coveting the position of Bestuzhev. Liu Ming, and from their point of view, exchanging the position of acting commander of the Black Sea Fleet for the position of director of the third department of Kiev can barely be considered a preservation of capital.
And based on Li Xiao's understanding of Shuvalov, this little fox, this guy will never fight an unprepared battle. I'm afraid he is planning to bring down Bestuzhev. While leaving Ming, he is also thinking of ways to give himself
Earn a huge amount of credit, and with this credit and Count Uvarov putting in good words for him, that position might really be his!
In other words, this time Li Xiao had better be able to destroy Shuvalov's plan to take credit. To be honest, this is too difficult because he still has no clue.
"Anton, Petrovna needs to pay close attention to it, but that pretty boy is also very important. In a sense, he is the real most critical person. I think we should work more on him. He should not have any
Petrovna is so sensitive, and based on his character, he is probably not a loyal person. With a little scare and the promise of huge profits, he should be able to bribe her and take advantage of her!"
Li Xiao's idea actually came to Anton's mind. The reason he didn't do it right away was because Li Xiao personally presided over this matter. Even if Anton had an idea, he would have to seek Li Xiao's consent before doing it.
Now, Anton was very happy that Li Xiao took the initiative to bring it up, and immediately said: "I think so too, so I hope you will allocate a sum of money to me to bribe him."
When it comes to money, Li Xiao has a headache. He really didn't think that so much money was needed to engage in intelligence. In recent years, most of his income in Wallachia and Prussia has been filled into this hole. It's almost hundreds every year.
Ten thousand rubles of funding, so much money is wasted most of the time. How do you think he feels?
Anyway, he now understands why the defense budget of future generations of American imperialists is so high. For their global spy and eavesdropping systems, the annual maintenance costs alone are astronomical, not to mention that they still have traditional methods of developing moles.
Naturally, real money is needed to open the way.
Although he felt a little distressed, Li Xiao also knew that the money that should be spent must still be spent. You have never seen Shuvalov throw away half a million rubles as soon as he raised his hand. Although he was not that generous, he still approved a hundred thousand rubles.
Rubles for Anton's use.
What, how do you think you can use one hundred thousand rubles to steal someone else's five hundred thousand rubles? It's not like giving more money means being the most powerful in this world. Although giving more money is indeed easier to achieve your goal, if you cooperate with other means, you don't need to give it.
Even with that much money, things can be accomplished.
In this regard, Li Xiao believes in Anton's ability. He has grown very fast in the past two years and is now able to stand alone. He believes that he should be able to deal with that pretty boy named Felix Alexievich Bruning.
It's not a difficult thing.
For Li Xiao, the real difficulty is to figure out Shuvalov's true purpose, because even if Bruning is dealt with, he will only know the plan to deal with Bestuzhev and Liu Ming, and how to take advantage of Shuvalov.
