Petukhov saw it clearly and knew that Shuvanov's trip might not be that simple. Considering Wallachia's complicated situation and the fact that a certain Grand Duke was also active there, I'm afraid what exactly this guy was going to do
Hard to say.
Anyway, you have to be more careful. Petukhov doesn't want to fall into a trap if he's not careful, or even get into big trouble.
So he sternly warned Plachev: "Watch your mouth and don't say anything outside. This guy is not simple. I'm afraid he's coming with bad intentions." In order to make this nephew pay special attention, he also warned: "I'm afraid it's...
I’m here for the Grand Duke, don’t expose your relationship, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable! By the way, you are not allowed to drink alcohol from today on! Too much alcohol will cause trouble, and you can’t control your tongue when you drink!”
Plachev immediately stopped working. It's okay to let him skip meals, but absolutely not without drinking. Alcohol is the source of his life, okay!
"Uncle, I can't control my tongue..."
However, before he could finish his words, Petukhov mocked him: "Last time you drank too much and boasted to your daughter-in-law about us robbing a rich man from Crimea. Last time you drank too much and you scolded everyone you met.
The matter of Mikhevich is the same as last time..."
Plachev suddenly felt that there were ten thousand flies flying in his ears, and he immediately raised his hands in surrender: "Okay, okay! Stop talking, I can't stop drinking. I really can't stand your nagging. The older you get, the more you become like this."
What’s up, mother…”
Petukhov was so angry that he blew his beard and glared: "What did you say!!"
Seeing that it was not good, Plachev immediately ran away. He was really afraid of being talked about by Petukhov, and would rather drink less than be talked about. It's just that, if he could drink less, he would have more
Not even one meal.
He couldn't bear it all night, and early the next morning, he drank vodka again with dry ribs and sausages. But drinking was drinking, and Plachev's mind was not confused. It seemed that he was drinking with all his heart.
, In fact, his ears were straight up, listening to the conversation between Shuvanov and his subordinates with all his attention.
This has to mention Plachev's hearing. This guy's ears are very sensitive. He can hear other people's whispers clearly from a distance of more than ten meters, and he doesn't need to put his ears against the wall regardless of the partition.
You can clearly hear the whispers next door.
This guy's ears can even move on their own, and can automatically adjust their direction to collect sound waves. That's quite incredible. It's just that, although his abilities are incredible, Shuvanov's caution is also unique. Even though he is far away and
He deliberately lowered his voice, but the things he talked about basically had nothing to do with secrets. Most of them were just plain talk, without any nutrition.
"Why don't you go overland to Buzau and then go to Bucharest via Ploiesti? It would be much faster. It's too slow to sail against the current on the Danube!"
"Sir, although it is fast to go to Buzeu and Ploiesti, the front-line inspections are also much stricter. We brothers are not at risk of being exposed, but those Cossacks are too eye-catching and are a trouble! Once exposed, the consequences will be disastrous.
!”
"Although taking the water route is slower, there are fewer inspections along the way and it is much safer!"
Shuvanov curled his lips and glanced at Pugachev inadvertently, and said a little irritably: "These are all these damn Cossacks. God knows which idiot sent them here. They just fail more than they succeed!"
"You are right. These Cossacks are too eye-catching. You must be more careful when you arrive in Bucharest. You must tell them not to show their faces, otherwise they will do bad things!"
Shuvanov cursed again and muttered: "If they don't enter the city then, just let them stay outside the city... You have a stronghold outside the city, right? Send more people to watch them, and there are thousands more
Don’t give them too much alcohol, because these drunkards will cause trouble if they drink too much!”
Pugachev didn't like to hear this. With alcohol, the Cossacks would not cause trouble. Who has time to cause trouble with alcohol? Doesn't it taste good to drink well? Without alcohol, you have to cause trouble, otherwise how can you survive the time!
Anyway, Pugachev didn't care what happened to others. When the time came, he had to do something to let some miser know the terrible consequences of not providing enough vodka to the Cossacks.
Shuvanov naturally didn't know that his words were truly heard, and he was still whispering to the contact, but this time he felt a little more nourished.
"What's it like in Bucharest?"
"It's random! The nobles are busy running for their lives, and the untouchables are busy rebelling. Anyway, it's quite lively! You'll know how much fun it will be when you get there!"
Shuvanov didn't like this answer. He wasn't here to have fun. He wanted to know the specific chaos.
"What kind of chaos? It's just chaos in the world, what else can we do? You ask what the powerful people in Bucharest and those bastards who oppose us are doing? Some are busy making money and running away, and some are still clamoring to fight us desperately.
."
"Count Speransky? Sorry, the count has been busy integrating those losers who are leaning towards us and preparing to organize them so that they can play a role at the critical moment!"
Shuvanov disapproved of this and snorted: "What use are they doing? It's just naive and stupid to expect them!"
Naturally, the contact person did not dare to say anything about this, because after all, he had a relationship with Alexey. He also knew how complicated the situation in Bucharest had been in the past few months, and how difficult it was to do something practical. But he also did not dare to offend Shu.
Vanov, after all, this person is also famous in the third part. It’s better not to involve mortals like them when gods fight.
"What happened in the last assassination attempt?"
This issue is actually the key to Shuvanov's trip. Both Nicholas I and Duke Ordorf want to find out whether the assassination was an accident or whether Alexei acted on his own initiative and acted on Nicholas I's behalf.
That is absolutely unacceptable!
When talking about this topic, the contact person's mouth tightened a lot, and he answered cautiously: "Those guys in Wallachia are really unreliable. It is said that they were originally planning to get rid of the Bretianu brothers, a pair of rebels.
The Russian hardcore elements, in the end, they mistakenly targeted the British guy and killed the British guy by mistake. Tell me how unreliable these Wallachians are and what they can do!"
However, Shuvanov did not completely believe it and tried again: "How come I heard that this is not exactly the case? How could such an important action make such a low-level mistake!"
As soon as these words came out, the contact person frowned, and even Pugachev, who was eavesdropping, cheered up. He was sure that this was the key reason why the scoundrel in the third part infiltrated into Bucharest!
