Viscount Prozolov had no choice but to take one step at a time. Regardless of whether there was any way, he had to contact Petrovna first to find out what was going on with this woman.
Of course, he was also secretly worried, praying that Petrovna did not confess under the torture in the third part, otherwise once this woman said something she shouldn't have said, it would be really difficult to deal with it next.
Grand Duke Konstantin also knew that Petrovna's affairs were a bit difficult to deal with. First of all, the place where she was imprisoned was difficult. The third part was that the prison was under the supervision of Count Rostovtsev, although it was not so difficult that a needle could not be inserted and water could be poured.
Not going in, but it’s definitely not like you can walk around in your own backyard as much as you want.
If you want to get in touch with the prisoners there, you need not only face, money, but also luck.
If you don’t believe me, ask Count Shuvalov and see what happened to him. See what he was like before he met Grand Duke Nicholas!
But even if he troubles Grand Duke Constantine, he can only bite the bullet and find a way, because he knows that Viscount Prozolov is right to ask for contact with Petrovna first, and he really needs to find out what is going on with that woman.
Otherwise everything will be difficult to say.
Grand Duke Constantine thought for a while and felt that he had no choice but to go to Grand Duke Nicholas to find a solution. The only thing that made him happy was that he had improved his relationship with Grand Duke Nicholas during this period, otherwise he could only stare blankly.
But before that, Grand Duke Constantine still had a question for Viscount Prozolov: "Do you think it would be easier for us if we could try to get that lady to shut up directly?"
Viscount Prozolov said to himself, "I knew you would do something like this! Kill someone and silence them, right?"
This method is not impossible. On the contrary, it is indeed very trouble-free. Anyway, Petrovna's use value is almost gone, so why waste time, energy and favors to rescue her?
Viscount Prozolov is not a soft-hearted master. He will never show mercy to someone if necessary. He has no burden to kill someone and silence them.
However, silencing her was not the best option at this time. At least he felt that if Petrovna was silenced too quickly, it would have the opposite effect. If the woman had already confessed, what would be the use of silencing her?
If you do that, you will be exposed. Even if you escape this time, Shuvalov will use this to cause trouble after the case is concluded.
"I think it's a little early for this. We must figure out Petrovna's situation no matter what. If she doesn't confess, everything will be easy. You can safely and boldly try to make her keep this matter in her stomach..."
After a pause, Viscount Prozolov said firmly: "But if she does it, then things will be complicated, and we have to take a long-term approach!"
Grand Duke Constantine was quite satisfied with this answer. In fact, his purpose was to test Viscount Prozolov's attitude towards Petrovna and see if the other party was willing to kill and silence her.
Now it seems that Viscount Prozolov is not disgusted with this, which makes him feel a lot more relaxed. Otherwise, if Viscount Prozolov strongly resists doing this, he may have no choice but to go on a killing spree.
Yes, two or three lives were nothing to Grand Duke Constantine. If necessary, he would not object to killing Viscount Prozolov as well.
Fortunately, Viscount Prozolov was very wise, which saved him a lot of trouble and gave him a clear idea of how to deal with Petrovna's problem.
While Grand Duke Constantine was busy contacting Grand Duke Nicholas to smoothen the relationship, Viscount Prozolov also called Ravel.
"Did you manage to get in touch with your mistress?" he asked straight to the point.
Ravel was stunned and asked: "What's wrong? Didn't you say that you should find a solution? I really don't have the connections available here, so I can't help it!"
Viscount Prozolov stared at Ravel's face, as if he wanted to find some clues from his face, but he didn't know whether it was because Ravel was really helpless or because his acting skills were particularly superb, so why did Viscount Prozolov
Didn't see it either.
"The situation has changed again!" Viscount Prozolov said in a deep voice.
Rafael quickly asked: "What change?"
"Grand Duke Constantine is ready to make a truce with Count Shuvalov. The previous matters will not be pursued. He will not target His Highness the Grand Duke, and His Highness the Grand Duke will not target him again!"
Ravel was taken aback, his eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief: "When did this happen? Why didn't I hear anything?"
Viscount Prozolov ignored the question, but squinted his eyes to observe him carefully, and then said: "I heard it just now, so the situation is quite unfavorable for your mistress. I am not afraid of making fun of you."
Speaking of which, she is in great danger now, her life is almost hanging by a thread!"
Ravel was petrified, anxious, and kept complaining to Viscount Prozolov: "How did you promise to us before? You guaranteed to protect our safety, but what is going on now? You are like this."
Are you preparing to burn bridges across the river?"
Viscount Prozolov understands Ravel's anger very well. If he were to face this situation, he would be even more angry. He is also very satisfied with Ravel's anger, because he will only be angry when he is powerless. Anyone who has some means can do it.
Neither will be angry.
Viscount Prozolov felt that Ravel's anger could explain a lot of problems, at least for the time being, it could show that this guy was not lying, and it was very possible that he did not contact Petrovna. In this way, things would be easier to handle.
Viscount Prozolov comforted Ravel and said, "The situation is indeed very bad. I will not lie to you or deceive you. Everything I do next will be based on our common interests.
I also hope that I can save your mistress, and I hope that we both have a bright future. So you must follow my instructions. If you do it well, there may be a glimmer of hope!"
Ravel seemed to be hesitant and struggled for a while before choosing to continue to believe Viscount Prozolov. He asked in a serious voice: "What do you want me to do?"
Viscount Prozolov lowered his voice and ordered: "First of all, don't continue to try to contact your mistress through connections. It's up to me. You must not expose your relationship with her now, otherwise not only will she be in trouble, but your life will be in danger as well."
.”
"Secondly, try to move Count Shuvalov's most important evidence to a safe place. That is the key to whether we can save our lives. Finally, try to deal with some of the loose ends left behind by what you have done before.
