Rostovtsev was lost in memories, and there was no movement for a long time. This surprised Xiaomi Liujing, because this wise count rarely lost his mind like this. In the past, he always had everything under control.
Grasp, it is completely like a master who has the pearls of wisdom. But now, this style is completely distorted, okay!
"Count? Count? What are you thinking about?"
Raising his head, Rostovtsev glanced at Xiaomi Liujing with dark eyes, and replied without any emotion: "It's just some old things." After a pause, he added: "Of course the current situation in Europe is
It is conducive to our reform cause, my friend, don’t you feel that the old order throughout Europe is trembling? A new storm is brewing, and an earthquake no less than that of 1789 will announce the new
The advent of the era. My friend, as a young person, you may not know what such an earthquake will bring, but as someone who has experienced all that, I know that getting rid of the old and welcoming the new will be the keynote of the second half of this century! When the whole
After the old order in Europe has collapsed, how can we survive alone?"
Xiaomi Liujing thought about it seriously and asked: "So you think we should take action?"
Rostovtsev shook his head and said: "Yes, but no. Before this storm comes, we cannot act rashly, but should be more cautious. Although Alexey Ordorf is far behind Benkendorf,
But the third part is not just for free. When the storm's source comes, His Majesty and them will be more vigilant and will inevitably strengthen monitoring and control. In recent years, under the strong request of His Majesty, the third part's henchmen have
They have penetrated into every corner of our country. They are watching and patrolling their territory like hyenas, hunting down all targets that His Majesty does not like... We must be more meticulous and careful, and we must not repeat what happened in 1825 again.
Wrong. So we can't do anything more for the time being and wait for a favorable opportunity."
Xiaomi Liujing nodded in agreement. He did not agree with taking action immediately. After all, the preparation work was not that sufficient, the power on hand was still too weak, and the internal opinions were not completely unified. If he took action rashly, it might lead to another disaster.
The Decembrist Uprising. The Russian progressives could no longer bear this price a second time.
"Did you go to see the Grand Duke last night?" Xiaomi Liujing suddenly asked, "With all due respect, are you paying too much attention to him?"
Count Rostovtsev tapped the window edge of the carriage with his index finger, and did not answer immediately. He pondered for a moment and then said: "He performed well last night, didn't he? I haven't seen anyone in many years who can make that tyrant furious."
Xiaomi Liujing curled his lips and did not comment on this answer. It is true that Li Xiao's speech last night was very exciting. It exposed the true face of Nicholas I and allowed the Russians who were deceived by his hypocritical mask to see the ugly face of the real Czar. For
It is very beneficial for the publicity of the reform cause. However, Xiaomi Liujing feels that this is just a reckless act driven by the righteous indignation of the Grand Duke, and it is just the anger of a common man and is not worth promoting.
"It's good to be able to relieve our anger, but it doesn't have much effect or significance on our cause. Instead, it will expose the target and cause unnecessary trouble!"
Rostovtsev just smiled and did not refute Xiaomi Liujing's evaluation of someone, because among them, Xiaomi Liujing's attitude towards someone was considered good. After the failure of the Decembrist uprising, the advanced aristocratic group had a good attitude towards someone.
Grand Duke Konstantin Pavlovich was quite disappointed. This Grand Duke was hiding in the gentle countryside of Warsaw like an ostrich, sitting back and watching the tragedy happen. If he could take the initiative to accept the throne, if he could support his successor
Speaking to a Decembrist who called for an uprising, those five people wouldn’t die, right?
Anyway, after that battle, the Grand Duke lost his heart. Except for a few "royalists" in the circle who still had hope for him, most people left him. The radicals even called for the elimination of Romanov.
The Jacobin slogan of the family's establishment of a republic. Xiaomi Liugin and his brother Dmitri Alexeevich Milyutin belong to the kind of neutral faction that neither supports nor opposes, and they are considered to have a better position.
Yes.
"Don't be too hasty to draw conclusions, my friend." Count Rostovtsev smiled slightly and said: "The Grand Duke can tolerate it for so long. He is considered a talent. Igor also said that he is inclined to progressive thinking. This
It's important to us, we all want an enlightened emperor to help us carry out our reform cause, don't we?"
"Do you think he has the ability and responsibility? The Grand Duke's previous reputation was really not very good!" Xiaomi Liujing obviously did not think highly of Li Xiao, "What's more, there is Konstantin Nikolay who is leaning toward us.
Grand Duke Victory, this enlightened Grand Duke's position is very close to ours, and from the perspective of inheritance rights, Grand Duke Constantine has a greater chance!"
"Don't be anxious, don't rush to conclusions! Don't identify a person's nature through superficial appearances!" Count Rostovtsev said calmly, "Although Grand Duke Constantine's current attitude is good, he
I am more influenced by that Majesty, and he is not as loyal and honest as he appears. I can see that it is a little fox... We can't put all the eggs in one basket, we must make more preparations. More
Besides, it is easy for me to help the Grand Duke. With him, I can distract the tyrant to some extent..."
"I understand, the Grand Duke is just a front, right? This is a good idea... But why do you want His Majesty to assign the Grand Duke to the 748th Regiment to receive training? Let him
Wouldn't it be better for the Grand Duke to stay in St. Petersburg to attract more attention? And the state of the regiment, to be honest, don't you think this challenge is too difficult for the Grand Duke?"
Count Rostovtsev smiled slightly and replied enigmatically: "Really? Then we will wait and see!"
