Petrovna was stunned, because Ravel's words made so much sense. As he said, no matter what, Grand Duke Constantine was still the son of Nicholas I. Unless he rebelled in person, no matter how serious the crime was, he would be guilty of it.
More means reprimanding or depriving him of the power in his hands.
No matter what, I have never heard that the Grand Duke would be sent to the guillotine. At least there is no such tradition in Russia. In other words, as long as Grand Duke Constantine does not seek death without limit, then it is easy to be a wealthy idler.
.
This is actually a natural talisman that allows Grand Duke Constantine to do almost anything he wants to do.
But Shuvalov was different. Although he was Count Uvarov's confidant and had a strong background, he was just a minister after all. In the contest with Grand Duke Constantine, he was naturally in a passive position.
He may be able to defeat Archduke Constantine countless times, but if he loses once, he will lose everything. He must go all out and win every time, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable.
Therefore, even if Grand Duke Constantine loses this contest, he will probably have another chance. As long as he wins next time, all the old and new grudges will be avenged, and Shuvalov's head can be taken away.
Unscrew it and use it as a chamber pot.
Once you understand this, choosing is easy.
It is true that the current situation of Grand Duke Constantine is not particularly good-looking, but the advantage is that he cannot face a certain death. Even if Shuvalov wins, it will only take away his vested interests in Ukraine.
After figuring this out, Petrovna suddenly felt enlightened that joining Grand Duke Constantine was her way out, but she still had to think carefully about how to achieve this.
Yes, Petrovna is very smart, and what smart people are best at doing is summing up experience and lessons.
What did Petrovna understand after being tricked by Shuvalov?
She felt that bad men were unreliable, and the more powerful they were, the more unreliable they were. They would only use sweet words and nice words to fool weak women like them, but in the end they would be ruthless and even murder to silence them.
In view of this, you have to be more careful when you cooperate with similar stinky men in the future. Especially those stinky men with a higher status than Shuvalov, you need to be even more careful.
Petrovna immediately labeled Grand Duke Constantine as a dangerous and stinky man, and was determined to have more back-ups even when cooperating with the Grand Duke, no less than last time!
In fact, Petrovna felt that the backup plan last time was not particularly adequate, and she was also shot and wounded. If it were not for her amazing endurance and good health, she might not have been able to survive!
So next time, she will resolutely refuse to participate in such a dangerous operation. If she must go, she must hire more and more reliable bodyguards.
This summary cannot be said to be particularly accurate. It can be regarded as Petrovna's experience. However, she feels that these are not the most important. This incident has touched her greatly, and she began to think about herself.
The way of life is different from before.
Her background was not particularly prominent, and her father was just a minor baron in Kiev, so naturally he could not bring her much. She even went hungry for a time when she was a child, and she did not live the luxurious life of an aristocrat as she had imagined.
Precisely because she had suffered hunger and suffered, and tasted the warmth and coldness of the world, Petrovna was much more ambitious than ordinary women. She eagerly wanted to change her destiny, to have a beautiful dress, and to have a beautiful dress every day.
Everyone can eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, and there is no need to worry about life at all.
These things were the initial motivation that supported her upward climb. Then she got married, and her alcoholic and violent husband naturally could not give her enough family warmth. Although her husband's family had good financial resources, she had a very difficult life during that period.
Later, the alcoholic husband died after another drinking binge, and Petrovna breathed a sigh of relief. After that, she had a free and happy time. She could do what she wanted to do, but these were
Happiness came and went quickly. She quickly squandered all the property left by her alcoholic husband and had to rely on debt to survive.
At that time, she once again knew the importance of money. In order to maintain a superior life, she began to wander among various LSPs and began to become a famous social butterfly in Kiev. She worked hard to curry favor with countless godfathers to maintain her upper class status.
social life.
But she felt very tired and dissatisfied. This lifestyle had given her too many dissatisfactions and grievances. At that time, she was also summarizing the reasons. That time she came to the conclusion that there was no way out for being a social butterfly by currying favor with too many godfathers.
, because these godfathers are not enough, and they are asking for more, which is a lot of trouble.
At that time, she felt that there was no point in fawning over too many godfathers. It was enough to have one godfather who was powerful enough. So she found Shuvalov, and relied on Shuvalov's power to become a Kiev socialite.
The big sister of the world.
At that time, she felt that her choice was too correct and she was complacent about her wisdom. But this time the fiasco made her sober up. After all, her godfather was not her biological father, not even her real husband. To her godfather, she was just
It is a plaything and can be discarded at any time.
Naturally, it is a foolish dream to rely on her godfather to take care of everything. Petrovna feels that if a woman only entertains people with sex, the results will definitely not be good. So she does not want to follow the old path again, and does not want to make a living by selling sex.
and status.
Petrovna thought for a long time and analyzed in detail what she could do. In fact, she learned a lot from Shuvalov. Before Shuvalov, she was really just a beautiful vase, and Shuvalov
It taught her so many things and made her realize how a woman can show her abilities when she is helpless.
Petrovna feels that her ability to find out information is first-rate. Her status as a woman or socialite allows her to easily get secret information from many bad men, and she can also spread false news in turn. When necessary, she can even
Use a honey trap to make some lsps fall into the trap.
Petrovna feels that these abilities can make her very useful, even to Grand Duke Constantine. This makes her not a one-time deal for Grand Duke Constantine, not only can she help
When dealing with Shuvalov, he can also help him do some secret things that these upper-class figures cannot do personally.
In this regard, Petrovna is full of confidence. She is determined to give full play to her own advantages and show her abilities from now on. She will no longer be a vase for entertaining others, but will be a truly independent and useful woman!
