Rafl quickly launched an operation. He first used small money to bribe the prison bosses and found out what happened to Bestuzhev.liu after he was imprisoned. Then he closely followed his immediate superiors and observed
Shuvalov's movements.
Soon he discovered something unusual. First of all, Bestuzhev. Ryumin was too calm there. Logically speaking, in such a major case, a suspect like Bestuzhev. Ryumin would not be able to get away with it.
There were three trials, but Bestuzhev Liuming was interrogated a few times by Peter Balak after he was imprisoned, and then he was left aside and ignored.
This is obviously not the rhythm of handling the case, and based on the information he found, it seems that when Peter Balak interrogated Bestuzhev. Liuming, he was not more concerned about the case, but putting pressure on him, as if to force him
Betrayal.
Although the latter news is not 100% reliable, because the little prison boss only heard it. But Ravel feels that this is not groundless. Although he does not know Shuvalov's faction and Grand Duke Constantine
The factions he belonged to were incompatible, but he knew that if he were Shuvalov, he would have to force Bestuzhev. Liu Ming to betray him. After all, with the size and strength of Grand Duke Constantine, there was no way he could just watch.
Watching him destroy his henchmen, Ai Jiang ignored him.
If you can kill two birds with one stone and defeat Bestuzhev, and at the same time have a sneak attack on Grand Duke Constantine, it will be a good deal.
The only thing that makes Lavl a little regretful is that the little boss does not know whether Bestuzhev. Ryumin has betrayed him. If he could know whether Bestuzhev. Ryumin has betrayed him, it would be very difficult for Petrovna.
The next step would be very helpful.
"...The situation you mentioned is indeed very important. Once Bestuzhev Liuming turns against you, the matter will become serious!"
Petrovna was also a little anxious after hearing Lavl's report, because she was still thinking of defecting to Grand Duke Constantine to counterattack Shuvalov, but once Bestuzhev Ryuming betrayed him, she would not be able to defect to him.
Grand Duke Constantine was not a good chess player but brought about his own destruction.
It's just that Petrovna can't guess the true situation of Bestuzhev. Ryumin. After all, her political wisdom, experience and skills are not up to that level.
After a long while, she sighed: "You just said that Bestuzhev. Liuming was interrogated several times and then was thrown into prison and ignored... This seems a bit like he has betrayed him, otherwise it would not matter whether Peter
Both Balak and Shuvalov will try every possible means to torture him and force him to submit... Only if he has betrayed, those two people will leave him alone, hey..."
In fact, Ravel thought the same way. He also felt that Bestuzhev Liuming might have betrayed him, otherwise it would not be so easy - do you really think that the third part is a charity organization and treats prisoners so kindly!
However, he was slightly different from Petrovna. Petrovna meant that the matter could not be settled and had to make other plans, but Ravel felt that the matter had not reached that point yet.
He asked cautiously: "Madam, what are your plans?"
After Petrovna held her forehead and thought for a moment, she did not answer Ravel's question directly, but asked: "What is the situation of martial law and searches now? Are there any signs of relaxation?"
Ravel knew what Petrovna meant as soon as he heard it, but he really didn't agree with it. He immediately replied: "Madam, the martial law and searches are now loose on the outside and tight on the inside. It seems that the intensity of the search is not as strong as before.
He is stronger, but my observation is that Shuvalov is actually keeping a close eye on him. He deliberately put on a relaxed posture, probably hoping to make you or Fioning and others relax their vigilance."
Petrovna clicked her tongue immediately. This did not surprise her at all. She knew that Shuvalov was such a person and was best at such tricks.
"That means if I want to go out of town at this time, it might be very dangerous?"
Raffl replied decisively: "It is very dangerous. Shuvalov's outposts are ambushed on the main roads out of the city. All people leaving the city must be searched by them. No one is exempt!"
Petrovna suddenly smiled bitterly: "That means I can't get out at all, right?"
Rafael hesitated for a moment but answered honestly: "You can't get out!"
Petrovna sighed again: "It seems that I can only wait until they decide the winner and then go abroad to escape. At that time, he should not be staring at me anymore..."
Ravel glanced at Petrovna and thought for a while before making up his mind. He suggested: "Madam, I think you'd better not wait. Shuvalov has always been cruel, and now you have become his confidant.
In serious trouble, he will never sit back and watch you escape."
"And even if you can go abroad for a while, you will never want to return to Russia. He will become a criminal and will be wanted forever. Moreover, your reputation, status and real estate will all be confiscated!"
Petrovna suddenly shuddered, and she suddenly woke up. Just as Rafael said, if she ran away, she would never be able to return to Russia. Everything about her, including her title of nobility, would be stripped away.
She will lose everything!
Petrovna is not willing to lose these things. These are her most precious things. For these things, she has struggled for more than ten years, put in countless efforts, suffered countless grievances, and had to surrender to countless stinky men.
, could Shuvalov be ruined just like that!
The reason why she was unwilling to escape Kiev before was because she was unwilling to lose everything. She had survived such difficult and dangerous times, so could she just give up?
Petrovna's heart was full of reluctance, but she didn't know what to do, because the situation was very unfavorable to her, and she couldn't see the slightest chance of a comeback. Shuvalov had laid a dragnet, and there was no chance of a comeback.
Give her any chance.
At this time, Ravel spoke again: "Madam, if you want to stay, I personally recommend that you seek refuge with Grand Duke Constantine. Even if Bestuzhev Ryuming betrays you, he is the only one who can help you save the situation.
That person!"
Petrovna really didn't expect Ravel to say that. She was a little surprised and asked in confusion: "Why did you say that?"
Ravel said calmly: "Grand Duke Constantine is your Majesty's son after all. Even if Shuvalov instigates Bestuzhev. Staying here will only embarrass him for a while, but it is impossible for him to lose everything."
!As long as the Grand Duke can recover from this, there may be no chance of making a comeback in the future!"
