Fyodor's words were very serious, but they made sense. It can be imagined that if Grand Duke Mikhail chose to shrink his eggs and give in, those who had taken refuge with him would naturally be disappointed. This would only make other onlookers
People who are concerned about what is happening in Kiev think that Grand Duke Mikhail is a weakling and a coward, who is simply too mud to hold up a wall.
Who would want to take refuge with such an unreliable boss who would fall apart at critical moments?
After all, why do everyone form cliques and work hard to survive in officialdom? Isn't it just to become the popular and popular people who drink spicy food and become the small group of people at the top of the pyramid?
As a result, Grand Duke Mikhail fled after being slightly frightened. He had no fighting spirit at all. How could he lead them to climb up? Do you think that Shuvalov, a big shot in Russian official circles, is particularly powerful?
?
Even Shuvalov can't handle it, and he doesn't even have the courage to fight head-on. How can you compete with those real giant crocodiles?
Fedor saw this too clearly, so even if he had always disapproved of Grand Duke Mikhail's involvement in Kiev's bad things, he had to remind him at this time that Grand Duke Mikhail would not fight in this battle.
You have to fight, you can be beaten until you are no longer human and can't get up, but you can never surrender from the beginning!
Fyodor's resoluteness and decisiveness greatly shocked Grand Duke Mikhail, letting him know how serious the consequences would be if he did not fight, and he immediately began to murmur. After a while, he felt that Fyodor was right, regardless of whether he fought or not.
If you can win, at least you can't surrender at the beginning, you have to go out and show off.
But Grand Duke Mikhail didn't have much confidence. After all, Shuvalov's shouting was quite scary. They had brought Count Uvarov to the platform. Grand Duke Mikhail didn't have the courage to talk to Uvarov.
Earl Husband sang the opposite tune.
What if Count Uvarov is really offended by fighting Shuvalov at this time? Wouldn't that indirectly offend Crown Prince Alexander?
Moreover, Grand Duke Mikhail has heard about Shuvalov's methods. Look at how he plotted against Bestuzhev. Liu Ming. That method is called a vicious one. Such a vicious and ruthless person is really
Can you handle it yourself?
Grand Duke Mikhail was extremely unconfident. He knew he could not surrender, but he really did not have much confidence in fighting. Even though Fyodor encouraged him repeatedly, he still looked worried and uneasy.
Until the evening, when the timid conservatives in Kiev came to him in a group, he looked like a coward.
"Gentlemen, I heard from Fyodor, do you have anything to say to me?"
In fact, Grand Duke Mikhail knew very well the purpose of this group of people. What else could they do besides Shuvalov's business? But at this moment, he was in a mess. He really had no idea. You
Ask him to give these people an answer immediately and calm their minds. The baby really can't do it, because he, a big baby, still needs others to comfort him!
"Yes, Your Highness. You should have heard that Count Shuvalov has been released."
Grand Duke Mikhail calmed himself down and replied: "Yes, I heard the news. Do you have any questions?"
These cowards are looking at Grand Duke Mikhail as if nothing happened, and they are ready to curse. What's the problem? Damn, it's a big problem, okay!
However, they did not dare to make a fuss in front of Grand Duke Mikhail. They could only say patiently: "Originally, this is a good thing. We are all really happy that Count Shuvalov has been released."
You must say this, after all, this is political correctness. Even if these cowards wish Count Shuvalov could come out for the rest of his life, it is not suitable to say it publicly, otherwise it will be too detrimental to internal unity.
"But as soon as His Excellency the Earl was released from prison, he started gesticulating and ordering us to do this and that. Of course, we are very happy to work for His Majesty the Earl, but His Majesty's orders are contrary to His Highness's instructions, which leaves us at a loss!
"
After saying this, these cowards looked at Grand Duke Mikhail eagerly, hoping that he would express his position quickly, not only to completely deny Shuvalov's instructions, but also to support them and help them resist Count Shuvalov's unreasonable
The command is not.
As everyone knows, Grand Duke Mikhail himself is in a state of confusion at this time, and has no clue at all. Naturally, he cannot give them everything they want. But, looking at this group of people who have taken refuge in him, Grand Duke Mikhail also
He knew that he couldn't tell them that he was ready to surrender, otherwise people's hearts would be in chaos immediately, and it was very likely that these people would abandon him in an instant and never look down on him again.
So he was really hesitant and didn't know what to do. His lips moved again and again but he couldn't say a word. Naturally, such a state could not calm people's hearts. It would only make these people who were already attracted by Shuvalo
The coward who was frightened by her husband's strength became even more timid and confused.
If this situation continues, Grand Duke Mikhail will definitely have to give up. At the critical moment, Fyodor pulled him, or pushed him.
He looked at Grand Duke Mikhail who was hesitating and undecided. He was really anxious and angry. At this time, there was nothing to hesitate about. He was simply not like a man!
Fyodor, who was really impatient, finally couldn't help but stood up when he saw the group of cowards below preparing to give up Grand Duke Mikhail, and he said loudly:
"Everyone! Listen to me! His Highness sympathizes with your situation. Count Shuvalov has just been released from prison and started issuing orders indiscriminately, regardless of how critical the current situation is. If you follow his orders, it will be very good.
It may be a catastrophe!"
Seeing that the attention of these people was attracted, Fyodor glanced at Grand Duke Mikhail next to him and found that this guy was still confused and confused. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart and could only bite the bullet.
continued:
"His Highness is also very angry about this. He is extremely dissatisfied with Count Shuvalov's disregard for the overall situation and is firmly opposed to it! However, please be aware that His Highness is an outsider after all, and he has instructions from Count Uvarov.
First of all, rashly opposing Count Shuvalov is likely to cause new losses. Considering the overall situation, His Highness can only remain silent for the time being."
These words calmed the cowards a little. After all, who is not afraid of Count Uvarov! Even if they are Grand Duke Mikhail, they must consider the consequences of violating Count Uvarov's will. They can understand this, and they feel that
Fyodor's words are not finished yet. The most important information should be at the end. You might as well listen to what he has to say first and then decide what to do...
