Alexey's smile was so pleasing to the eye, it seemed that in his eyes Friedrich I was a big joke, but looking at what the guy said just now, it was indeed no different from a joke.
Anyway, Alexei's mentality has been completely relaxed now. When facing Friedrich I, he no longer has even a little bit of nervousness, but has a relaxed and funny mentality. Because he feels that Friedrich I is such a stick,
No need to be nervous at all.
"Of course I'm not doubting you? Why do you have such a ridiculous idea?" Alexey replied pleasantly.
From the look on his face, you would think that he was trying to appease Frederick I, but he only said half of what he said, and after hearing the second half, you wouldn't think it was anything like appeasing him.
Sure enough, when Frederick I just relaxed a little, he added: "But, Your Highness, you have to admit that you have serious suspicions now... If you are not familiar with Prince William's temper, if you do not trust Prince William absolutely,
I’m afraid even I will suspect that you have been bribed by the Austrians!”
Frederick I was furious. These words were really harsh, almost saying that without William I, you are nothing.
His face was swollen, and he wanted to flip the table and get angry. But, the situation was stronger than the person, and his brain had not been completely sacrificed. He knew very well that what he just said was not only a taunt, but also a real threat.
As long as he dared to bomb the assassination, Alexey would dare to treat him as a suspect. Frederick I did not forget how unpopular his actions were with the Russians, and the other party took this opportunity to humiliate him.
Totally possible.
At that time, he naturally had no shame in continuing to be this special representative, which meant that the Russians solved his big trouble without any effort.
He would definitely not do anything to make his enemies happy. He could only restrain his temper and said slowly: "Since you think I have serious suspicions, why are you telling me these things? Aren't you afraid of alerting the enemy?"
This was Friedrich I's counterattack. What he meant was: You Russians said that I was suspicious, but why did you tell me this? After all, it's not that you have nothing to do with me and can only swallow your anger. To put it bluntly, you Russians
It’s not like I’m naive and I don’t dare to fall out with me.
Alexei could naturally understand what this meant. He smiled and said: "Snatch the snake in the grass? So what if you are frightened? Even if you are really an Austrian spy, do you think you can get away with it?"
Without waiting for Friedrich I's answer, he continued: "We will monitor people with major suspicions like Miss Julianne around the clock. As long as she takes any extraordinary measures, coercive measures will be taken as soon as possible!"
Friedrich I was shocked. The warning or threat of these words was even stronger. He was telling him: Do you think you can do tricks? You are so naive. You have been fully monitored for a long time. Don't even think about doing tricks.
.
He even heard something more, that is, as long as the Russians are willing, they can arrest Julian at any time. The Russians can do it, and they are confident. After all, Julian is an authentic Wallachian, and the Russians want to arrest her.
She doesn't even need to make up excuses.
This made Frederick I's arrogance lower by three points. He was afraid that the Russians would be overbearing and unreasonable and force him to do so. At that time, he really had no choice.
After thinking for a while, he sighed inwardly and asked slowly: "Your Excellency, what do you want to do? As long as it is something I can do, how about I do it?"
Alexei sneered and said: "You have misunderstood Your Highness. We have no intention of asking you to do anything, let alone forcing you to do anything. Even if you don't agree to help with financing matters, it doesn't matter. It's just a small matter. Please come over and tell me
This is not to blackmail you, we will not do anything that is tasteless or classy."
Friedrich I snorted in his heart and thought to himself: "It sounds better to say it than to sing it. Don't take advantage of what I just said. Are they just farts?"
Of course, on the surface, he still looked attentive, but Alexei also knew that this guy didn't mean what he meant and couldn't believe it at all.
Alexei smiled again and said: "The most important purpose of inviting you here this time is to solve the conspiracy of Austrian spies, because this conspiracy is closely related to you and has a huge impact, so we must be cautious."
Friedrich I snorted in his heart again and said to himself: You still said this was not a blackmail. If it was not a blackmail, why would you mention Julianne?
Alexei continued: "I just told you that Miss Julianne received huge benefits to serve Austria as their spy, and Vienna assigned her a very evil task, which was extremely despicable.
The destructiveness is also very huge. Once she is really completed, it will cause a devastating blow to us!"
Friedrich I was still a little disapproving. He didn't even notice that Alexei said it would cause a devastating blow to us. He didn't think about it at all, and it was completely perfunctory.
Alexey and Vishnyak naturally saw that he did not mean what he said, but they were not in a hurry. The emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuchs were not. They did not believe that Frederick I would be so calm later.
"Vienna ordered Miss Julianne to expose your intimate relationship with her on a major occasion..."
Sure enough, when Alexei said this, Frederick I couldn't sit still. He looked at Alexei with a dumbfounded expression, as if he had seen a ghost.
Yes, he was frightened, because if this is true, once Juliane really does this, his reputation will be ruined to the point where nothing is left. Keeping mistresses and beauties in aristocratic circles is actually nothing.
, as long as it doesn't spread to the whole city, it doesn't matter. But once it is exposed, especially if it is exposed publicly on an important occasion, the destructiveness is definitely no joke.
If this kind of thing really happens to him, then he will definitely be finished. Not to mention marrying Prussia, he might just become a rat in the aristocratic circle and everyone will beat him up.
The serious consequences made Friedrich I's back soaked in cold sweat. Even though he told himself over and over again that these were probably Russian lies and forgeries, he still couldn't help but think about the terrible consequences.
Woolen cloth?
What if this is true?
Alexey was very satisfied that Frederick I finally realized the seriousness of the problem and how dangerous his situation was. I believe these dangers can make this dizzy second ancestor a little more awake...
