Chapter eight hundred and seventieth is too impressive
Li Xiao didn't hesitate and said decisively: "Listen to his words and watch his actions. Don't refuse or get too close. Just keep observing!"
Count Rostovtsev was surprised again, because he thought that Li Xiao would directly refuse Qianli or tell these wallflowers to go away. Who would have thought that he would keep an eye on him, and that he could remain calm enough and have enough political skills at such a young age?
This is really rare.
To be honest, even he thinks it's troublesome to deal with those wallflowers, so he should stay away from them. This is equivalent to reaching out and hitting the smiling people, which will push these guys back into the arms of conservatives, which is not good for reform.
Don't drive people to get close to them. These guys are all unreliable and only want to make bad ideas. They can really trick people to death!
In short, these guys can't be driven away, used, or ignored. They are simply mangy dogs with stinky shit. Besides being disgusting, they are still disgusting.
And Li Xiao's attitude is very interesting. He doesn't use these people, but he doesn't alienate them. He just deals with them in vain and in vain. This is simply treating others with their own way, used to deal with stinky shit.
It's really suitable.
Of course, if you really want to achieve this, you need to have a good level, and the level is still very high. At least Count Rostovtsev thinks that neither Nikolai Milyutin nor Grand Duke Constantine can do it. If these two
If people take action, then sooner or later their reforms will be carried out.
"Your suggestion is good, but it is difficult to implement." Count Rostovtsev sighed quietly.
But Li Xiao smiled and said: "That's because you are not using the right people. As for your friends, Nikolay Milutin and the like are definitely not suitable. They will be led astray by those wallflowers in a minute!"
Count Rostovtsev was not angry. He asked slowly: "From your tone, you seem to know when the candidate will be?"
"I do know!"
Count Rostovtsev was surprised again. Someone he couldn't find even dared to brazenly say that he knew. Is this guy a drifter?
"Then tell me who is suitable?"
Li Xiao smiled and said, "You really don't know? Or are you doing this on purpose to test me?"
"You decide on the candidate first." Count Rostovtsev said angrily.
"What do you think of Grand Duchess Irina?"
The candidate proposed by Li Xiao was a bit unexpected. At least Count Rostovtsev did not think in this direction at all. Because he felt that although Grand Duchess Irina was a staunch supporter of reform and had made many contributions to reform,
He didn't think it was particularly appropriate for her to take on such an important job, since she was a woman after all.
Regarding women, the Russian aristocrats, even enlightened aristocrats like Count Rostovtsev, actually believe that a woman’s lack of talent is a virtue. It is generally believed that women can only support their husbands and raise children, and they cannot be counted on for real national affairs.
This kind of habitual thinking naturally prevented Count Rostovtsev from thinking about Grand Duchess Irina. But when Li Xiao pierced the window paper, he immediately came back to his senses!
Grand Duchess Irina is really a particularly suitable candidate. First of all, she has a sharp mind and sharp eyesight, and she cannot be fooled by those simple tricks. Moreover, she has a very firm stance. She is really a hardcore reformist, so there is no need to worry about her being taken away.
partial.
Moreover, the Grand Duchess is good at dancing and has a high reputation in various upper-class circles in St. Petersburg. It is a stroke of genius for her to come forward to deal with those slippery wallflowers!
"How did you come up with the idea of asking the Grand Duchess to take action?" Count Rostovtsev asked curiously.
Li Xiao was always amused. He was not an aristocrat of this era, so naturally he would not be disturbed by the so-called traditional concepts.
He shrugged his shoulders and said, "I thought of it naturally."
Count Rostovtsev looked at him meaningfully for a while, and then said slowly: "You are an alien!"
Li Xiao was stunned by what he said. If Count Rostovtsev had said this to him when he first traveled through time, he would most likely have suspected that the count had seen through his identity as a time traveler. As for now, aliens are aliens.
What is there to be afraid of?!
Count Rostovtsev looked into his eyes and said: "You have no respect at all, especially for tradition. You can do whatever you want without any restrictions, even if you are a thousand people."
You don’t care about the situation you’re referring to!”
Li Xiao was a little dazed and didn't understand why Count Rostovtsev said this. Before he could react, the count made a conclusion for him: "If you make good use of people like you, it will be the country's luck.
Create a great era! But if you don’t use it well, it will be the country’s misfortune, and you will make the country a mess!”
Li Xiao smiled bitterly and said: "You think too highly of me. I just can't stand the oppression of that family, so I just want to fight for it. As for the rest, I don't even have the qualifications to be a troublemaker now. You
I could crush such a big shot to death with just one finger, what a mess!"
Count Rostovtsev shook his head and said: "You are too arrogant. Nicholas wanted to crush you to death, but he couldn't do it. Although your father left some connections, but you offended
The fact that you can still get away with it after killing him is all because of your ability. There are not many people in Russia who have your ability, and you don’t even dare to think about it!"
Li Xiao smiled and said, "Then I'll take it as your compliment!"
"Praise you?" Count Rostovtsev said with a chuckle, "If this sentence had reached Nikolai's ears when he was still alive, do you think you would still be able to laugh?"
Li Xiao was immediately speechless. If Nicholas I was still here, he would probably be killed if Nicholas I was still here, let alone return to St. Petersburg. His uncle was simply his enemy, how do you think of him?
Why is it so unpleasant? I wish I could get rid of it quickly!
Fortunately, Nicholas I was already in the past, so Li Xiao didn't feel afraid at all, and replied calmly: "If my uncle were here, you wouldn't even think about reform. With his personality, I'm afraid he would go even further."
Conservative to the extreme!”
Count Rostovtsev suddenly stopped talking, because Li Xiao was right. With Nicholas I's personality, he would definitely not be as talkative as Alexander II. He would not give in and would only use iron fists to deal with the reformists.
, using iron-blooded means to stabilize his rule.
Fortunately, he is gone, which removes the biggest obstacle to the reform and saves Count Rostovtsev a lot of things. Otherwise, according to his original plan, he would have to make some high-risk actions...
