After saying this, Vasily Spantelevich sat on the sofa and crossed his legs, completely looking through Mikhail Semyonovich's behavior.
However, it is normal for him to have such confidence, because his guess is indeed correct. Mikhail Semyonovich is full of bad ideas, so he will accept his advice.
As expected, the man immediately nodded and bowed and said with a smile: "You are indeed the person who knows me best. What, I do have a little trouble here... You know, isn't Grand Duke Andrei Konstantinovich
He's in charge of us, but you also know that this Grand Duke is... vulgar, doesn't understand the rules at all, has no rules at all in doing things, and doesn't buy anyone's face, tell me how can he be such an official!"
He glanced at Vasily Spantelevich and saw that he was not unhappy, so he continued: "Just recently, he actually came up with a new trick. When we go out to work to catch the gangsters, we still have to submit applications.
These commitment letters... How can there be such a way of doing things? If he continues to behave like this, how can we still work?"...
After a pause, he said with a smile: "So, I think that if His Excellency the Duke is free, I should teach the Grand Duke a lesson and let him know the rules of the third part, so that he will not continue to play the piano randomly...
"
Vasily Spanterevich did not agree or disagree immediately, because the goal given by Mikhail Semyonovich exceeded his expectations.
Originally, he thought that someone was planning to avenge a few competitors or attack dissidents. Who would have thought that he would reveal Li Xiao's name. He still knew something about Li Xiao, a very special grand duke.
This person is also a reformist, and it was Nikolai Milyutin who tried every means to force his way into the third part.
Speaking of which, it is indeed more appropriate to deal with Li Xiao as Mikhail Semyonovich said. He is a reformist and has a relationship with Nikolai Milyutin, and his status is neither high nor low, so he did not recruit Alexander II.
like.
It does seem to be the most suitable chicken in all aspects, but Vasily Spantelevich is not a fool. He feels that Mikhail Semyonovich will definitely throw out the name of Li Xiao.
What he just said was so simple, there must be a deeper reason.
It's just that this can't be deceived in a short while, and what if it is deceived? It's not really important to him. The important thing is that Li Xiao is really suitable to be the chicken, why not give it a try?
"So that's it," he said with a smile and waved his hand, "we are all good friends, you should have said this little thing earlier! What the Grand Duke did was really out of line, and it is indeed necessary to teach him a lesson, even if it is directed at you
I will do this to save my face, right?"
Mikhail Semyonovich quickly thanked him repeatedly, as lowly as he could. Those who didn't know better thought he was just a licker!
"Of course," Vasily Spantelevich suddenly said: "I am willing to help with this favor, but after all, this is the Duke's business, and I can't make decisions on his behalf... I have to do it tonight.
If you don't mind, just mention it to the Duke, if he agrees, then this matter will be simple!"
Mikhail Semyonovich quickly thanked you again: "You have taken so much trouble. If it weren't for you, I don't know how much I would have suffered. Just don't worry, I will keep this favor in mind. From now on, as long as you give me orders, I will do it."
I promise to put everything at my disposal..."
Vasily Spanterevich just hummed, his posture seemed dissatisfied, and immediately Mikhail Semyonovich slapped his forehead and said quickly: "Look at my memory.
Last time you told me that Miss Vitalievna was very dissatisfied with the living environment. Just last month we confiscated a house belonging to the Polish rebels. It was a pity that it was empty. Why not let Vitalievna
Miss Na, let’s stay there temporarily…”
Vasily Spantelevich glanced at him sideways and asked slowly: "Isn't this good? After all, it is a product confiscated and returned to the public. It is not suitable for private use..."
Before he finished speaking, Mikhail Semyonovich hurriedly said: "There's nothing wrong with it. It's empty anyway. It's a waste. As long as Miss Vitalievna doesn't dislike it, she can live in it."
Okay! I promise no one will chew their tongue!"
Vasily Spantelevich hummed and asked in a pretentious manner: "How long can we stay temporarily? Well, if the superiors want to take back the house, you can inform me in advance..."
Mikhail Semyonovich once again intercepted his words: "Just let Miss Vitalievna live with peace of mind. I estimate that no one has cared about that house in ten or eight years, or even
It’s hard to say that the superiors have forgotten about this matter a long time ago, just keep it under control and there won’t be any problems!”
Vasily Spantelevich nodded with satisfaction: "Then I will thank you for your kindness on behalf of Miss Vitalievna... As for the Grand Duke, I will report to His Excellency the Duke later.
Make suggestions, I believe His Excellency the Duke will not object!"
Mikhail Semyonovich then breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself: "You old fox, you really don't show off your eagle before you see the rabbit. You will never help me without giving you some benefits...even though I lost it."
It’s a small house, but as long as I get Grand Duke Andrei down and I move around a little bit, it shouldn’t be difficult to sit in his position..."
Mikhail Semyonovich went back with satisfaction. He felt that it should be easy to deal with Li Xiao at the level of Duke Dolgoruky. All he had to do was wait patiently for the good news!
It's just that after waiting for a week, he didn't get any news, which made him strange and anxious, because this week he had been scolded by Li Xiao a lot, and he was constantly being scolded by Li Xiao, which was very depressing.
"My friend, has what you said last time come to an end?"
Vasily Spantelevich glared at Mikhail Semenovich angrily and said impatiently: "What happened? What is the result?"
He turned his back on Mikhail. Semyonovich was so anxious that he quickly said: "It's just about killing the chicken! What did your Excellency the Duke say?"
Vasily Spantelevich snorted heavily and reprimanded: "What kind of chickens are you killing? What nonsense are you talking about? I'm not a cook, so I don't care about killing chickens!"
Mikhail Semyonovich was dumbfounded, because Vasily Spantelevich's attitude said everything. It was obvious that the matter was not done, which made him confused. Logically speaking, no
That should be right? Did something unexpected happen?
Suddenly he asked without giving up: "My friend, what is going on? That's not what you said last time!"
