Chapter five hundred and ninety second, there is a problem at a glance
Although Count Uvarov is not willing to see Moldavia break away from control, nor is he willing to give Moldavia too much autonomy, he thinks this loss is acceptable compared to attacking the reformists.
That's why he hit it off with the Moldavia nobles and worked together to trick Grand Duke Constantine. And now Nicholas I asked him if ending the New Deal would restore everything to the way it was before. He would definitely not dare to take such a guarantee.
He knew very well what those thieving nobles in Moldavia wanted, and I'm afraid they wouldn't give up until their goals were achieved.
He could only reply hesitantly: "Your Majesty, I think these are negotiable. As long as we show sincerity, I believe the Moldavia will definitely see it!"
Look at what this said. Anyway, the old foxes around me all know that this is just nonsense. Even if the New Deal is really ended, Moldavia will not be able to return to its past. It’s just that some of them are in the same group as Count Uvarov.
Yes, he was quite wary of Grand Duke Constantine’s fatal new policy, so naturally he would not try to dismantle Count Uvarov.
Some other foxes had concerns, considering the seriousness of the matter and the influence of Count Uvarov and his group, and did not dare to reveal the truth rashly.
But it doesn't matter, because Nicholas I is not that easy to fool. He said to Count Uvarov directly: "Count, I think you have a good relationship with Moldavia. Otherwise, I will send you to solve the problem."
This trouble is gone. You tell them that as long as they lay down their arms and respect the leadership of Russia, how about stopping the New Deal?"
Count Uvarov stopped talking, because he knew that this was impossible, and judging from Nicholas I's intention, he was prepared to hand over this hot potato to him. Once the final result was not what the tsar expected, then
He has to take responsibility, so...
He definitely won't do it!
"Your Majesty, although I know something about this matter, after all, I have no expertise in diplomacy. I think it is more appropriate to send more professional people who are more familiar with the situation in Moldavia to handle it."
"oh?"
Nicholas I smiled and asked casually: "Who do you think is the most suitable? As long as this person can restore Moldavia to its previous order, the New Deal can be abolished. This is my bottom line!"
Count Uvarov suddenly stopped talking, because what else could he say? No matter who he recommended, it would be impossible to achieve the goal within the bottom line of Nicholas I. This was an impossible task!
"Why are you silent, Earl? Tell me, who do you think is suitable? If not, just feel free to go there yourself!"
Count Uvarov glanced at Nicholas I quietly and found that the emperor had a playful expression. It was obvious that he shot himself in the foot this time. Nicholas I was not satisfied with his plan.
This is why you are deliberately making things difficult!
This made Count Uvarov confused. Nicholas I's conservatism was obvious. He had never had a good impression of reforms and the New Deal. Ordinarily, he would not use the idea of ending the New Deal to end the turmoil in Moldavia.
It should be opposed.
Although Russia will definitely have to make some concessions according to this plan, it is not unacceptable, right?
But judging from what he means now, it is clear that he is opposed to it, and he is not cold at all. What is going on?
In fact, the reason is very simple. Nicholas I really hated innovation and reforms, but he hated the damage to his authority even more. He was so concerned about face that he would never allow the Moldavia aristocrats to do what they did, just because he didn’t like Grand Duke Constantine’s New Deal.
You dare to rebel openly, do you take him as the emperor seriously?
Today you are rebelling under the guise of opposing the New Deal, and tomorrow you may rebel again under other similar excuses. If you are allowed to indulge in your nonsense, then I, the emperor, will still be nothing!
What's more, Nicholas I was not blind. Although Archduke Constantine's new policy had a lot of problems, the initial version was not as radical as it is now, and it was completely unable to push Moldavia into a desperate situation.
And he has watched the performance of Moldavia over the years! There have been several governors, but the country is always in chaos. Today there is an explosion, and tomorrow there is a rebellion. It has been going back and forth for several years.
What does this mean?
At least it shows that none of these Moldavia nobles are fuel-efficient!
I'm afraid that without Grand Duke Constantine's New Deal, these people would still make trouble whenever they should, and they would never stop!
If this behavior is left alone, there will be only one consequence. Russia's control over Moldavia will become weaker and weaker. These bastards are likely to become emperors or mountain kings, maybe in more than ten years.
They should be clamoring for complete autonomy, let alone being able to control them.
What Nicholas I hated the most was local snakes like Moldavia who refused to obey the rules and orders. He would never allow these people to mess around!
In his opinion, the fundamental reason why Moldavia is in such chaos is that these nobles are all good things. They cheat and play tricks all day long, take advantage when they can, and then don't want to take any responsibility. Where can this be?
Plant something good!
Especially after Grand Duke Constantine rolled out the wartime rationing system, he understood the situation in Moldavia more clearly. This was a group of old nobles who were unwilling to suffer losses in their interests. If
If you don't teach them a lesson, they will only become more and more rampant and lawless in the future.
So even though Nicholas I didn't like Grand Duke Constantine's new policies, let alone his method of emancipating serfs, he admitted that this method was just right for dealing with those troublemakers in Moldavia!
And if you look back and see what Count Uvarov said, he actually gave these guys a pat on the back, saying that they were forced to rebel by Grand Duke Constantine, and that the new policy was the culprit.
Isn't this nonsense?
Therefore, Nicholas I deliberately killed Count Uvarov's army and said that the New Deal could be abolished. As long as the rebels immediately handed over their weapons and surrendered, he would immediately return Moldavia to the state before the New Deal.
Sure enough, Count Uvarov immediately hesitated and started rambling. Obviously, this condition was not enough!
But for Nicholas I, since you are rebelling under the banner of opposing the New Deal, if I abolish the New Deal and return everything to the past, that is the biggest concession. But you are not satisfied yet, I am afraid your rebellion is not just for the New Deal.
Come on, this is a drunkard's intention and not in the bar!
This also made him start to examine Count Uvarov's role in the Moldavia rebellion. There was something wrong with this old guy at first glance!
