Li Xiao made up his mind to discuss Sergei's problem with Count Rostovtsev in the near future. He could not leave such a dangerous factor indifferent. But there was no need to be too anxious yet, after all, this was just
Just a sign.
The most critical issue in Kiev now is not the risk brought by Sergei, but how the case of Grand Duke Konstantin and Count Shuvalov will end.
Li Xiao has no objection to Count Rostovtsev squeezing out the last remaining value from them, but he believes that it is best to achieve the goal as soon as possible and cannot continue to delay it. Because the situation in Bulgaria and Turkey is already quite bad, it is uncertain when the two sides will
They would break up and fight. If the case was not concluded at that time, it would naturally be impossible for the Ukrainian rear to be stable.
This is not good news for Wallachia. Anyway, Li Xiao hopes that Count Rostovtsev will finish the matter as soon as possible so that they can have more time to stabilize the situation in Ukraine.
The reason why it is more time rather than sufficient time is because Li Xiao knows that there is no sufficient time at all. Even Wallachia, which started preparations early, cannot be said to be fully prepared. Unfortunately, the situation is like this.
, who made Nicholas I’s ambition expand so quickly!
"It's best to end the case as soon as possible. Our main energy cannot be dragged on it all the time, and it's not appropriate to hang Kostya all the time. Although he is indeed very annoying, he is the governor of Moldavia after all. If he can't quickly
Stabilizing Moldavia will definitely affect us!"
Anton also agreed with this. He had discussed this topic with Count Rostovtsev before, but the Count did not care about it. This made Anton vaguely feel that in his heart, whether it was Wallachia or
Moldavia is not very important. It would be better to have it, but it would be okay not to have it.
For Count Rostovtsev, Moldavia and Wallachia were dispensable, and it didn't matter even if this war destroyed them to pieces.
This makes Anton feel a little uncomfortable. First of all, as a patriot, he naturally hopes that his motherland will be as powerful as possible. It was not easy to win Moldavia and Wallachia before, especially Wallachia.
It took a lot of effort to manage Asia into what it is now, how difficult it is!
It would be a shame if it was just broken or thrown away!
Secondly, Anton knows very well what Wallachia means to Alexei and Li Xiao. This is their basic plan. Now Count Rostovtsev is a little indifferent to the core interests of these two people.
This is somewhat excessive.
It is a pity that Anton's gentle words have too little influence on Count Rostovtsev. His opinions are dispensable to Count Rostovtsev. It is almost impossible to persuade Count Rostovtsev to change his mind.
After hesitating for a moment, Anton said to Li Xiao: "I also talked about this topic with the Earl, but the Earl obviously didn't take it seriously..."
Li Xiao immediately understood what Anton meant. The purpose of his trip to Kiev was to have a good chat with Count Rostovtsev about future issues. The future was not limited to constitutional issues, but also involved Wallachia.
As well as the interests of him, Alexey and others.
He always insists that his own interests must be safeguarded and cannot be sacrificed casually. If Count Rostovtsev must ask them to make sacrifices, they must be compensated, otherwise there will be no need for this cooperation.
However, Li Xiao also knew that it would be difficult for Anton to be caught in the middle, so he did not intend to make it difficult for Anton. He just replied lightly: "It's okay, I will have a good chat with the earl. You just have to do your own thing."
Now, you don’t need to intervene in this matter.”
Anton also knew that although Li Xiao seemed to be speaking so easily, in fact, he was not necessarily very heavy in his heart. After all, he was Count Rostovtsev, and he was not someone who could be easily persuaded. If the persuasion failed, then in the end
Where to go?
This question made Anton very entangled. He actually wanted to talk about this issue in depth, but Li Xiao was obviously unwilling to talk to him. After he led the other party to change the topic twice without leaving any trace, Anton knew
Li Xiao would never speak again, so he could only put it aside for now and see if the conversation would continue in the future.
"What will the count do to Petrovna?"
Anton was stunned. He didn't expect that Li Xiao suddenly turned to that woman again. To be honest, he felt that Count Rostovtsev didn't care about Petrovna's life or death at all. It seemed that the best outcome for this woman was to go to jail or
Exile is what this life is all about for a woman like her.
Li Xiao nodded slowly and asked again: "Did you find out that she took refuge with Grand Duke Constantine and then had a fierce fight with Viscount Prozolov?"
Anton was stunned again, nodded and replied: "Yes, she has taken refuge with Grand Duke Constantine and has close contacts with Viscount Prozolov!"
Li Xiao nodded slowly and did not explain to Anton why he asked this question, but Anton was not stupid and he immediately had some guesses.
Are they planning to use Petrovna to make a fuss? But what other fuss can this woman make? If nothing else happens, she will be found as an accomplice in this case and will definitely be severely punished. In this case, she will be of no use value at all.
, what else is it used for?
Anton really wanted to ask Li Xiao what his plans were, but Li Xiao just kept silent and didn't know what he was thinking about.
After a long silence, Li Xiao finally raised his head and asked: "Do you think it is possible to develop her into a spy?"
Anton looked at Li Xiao in shock, because this idea was so crazy - developing into a spy? What kind of spy?
Li Xiao quickly gave an explanation: "Didn't she take refuge with Grand Duke Constantine and Viscount Prozolov? She was used to monitor these two guys, especially Viscount Prozolov, who was not a good person at first sight.
Hey, if you are full of bad news, you may be in trouble in the future. If there is a spy who warns you in advance, we can take precautions!"
Anton thought for a while and admitted that Li Xiao's idea made sense, but he also thought that it was too difficult to realize. After all, Petrovna's case was too serious, and there was no possibility of immunity from any aspect.
.
And once she is convicted, her value will cease to exist. Neither Grand Duke Constantine nor Viscount Prozolov will be able to protect a worthless person, let alone continue to use her.
As a result, this idea has no possibility of being realized, so what's the point?
