Chapter three hundred and seventy-eight of the imperial meeting (seven)
Uvarov's adding fuel to the fire made Grand Duke Constantine even more embarrassed. His face turned from red to blue, and then from green to purple. It was quite uncomfortable to hold it in!
It's just that he can't help it no matter how uncomfortable he is. Who makes him unable to come up with some decent dry goods? Without some dry goods that slap his face, he can't stand up!
Not only did Grand Duke Constantine feel uncomfortable, Nicholas I was also furious. The scoop of oil and water just now not only made Grand Duke Constantine lose face, but also disgraced him as a father.
Nicholas I used to praise Grand Duke Constantine for how cruel he was, but now it hurts to be slapped in the face. Anyway, Nicholas I felt that his face was burning and uncomfortable! He never showed any mercy to Uvarov who did not give face.
I hated it so much: [You old bastard, just wait for me, you must have come to an end as the Minister of National Education, so be prepared to go to Siberia to repair the earth!]
All the ministers sitting there praised Uvarov's courage. Of course, they must have nodded silently in their hearts, because everyone could see how angry Nicholas I was. Such a huge thunderous anger must be
It will make Uvarov unable to eat and walk around in circles. This old man is really not afraid of death!
Uvarov was not only not afraid of death, he did not even think that he would be in danger. Yes, he also saw the expression of Nicholas I and knew that His Majesty was extremely angry, but so what?
The reason why Uvarov dares to stand up and attack people today is that he is absolutely sure to escape unscathed. And he not only wants to escape unscathed, but also to gain a lot of attention from Nicholas I and Alexander
The Crown Prince's gratitude.
For an old fox like Uvarov, how could he attack people without thinking? Since he dares to attack, it means that it can be done. Not only will it not harm him, but it will also bring great benefits.
So you can see that Uvarov started his performance slowly: "Your Excellency, don't you have any better suggestions?"
This is adding fuel to the fire, or whipping the corpse. Anyway, Grand Duke Constantine is already dying of shame and anger, but it is of no use, because Uvarov is pressing harder:
"Your Majesty has high hopes for you, you can't let him down!"
In the ears of Archduke Constantine, these sounds were probably a... No! It should be a group of annoying flies buzzing in his ears. The scary thing was that he couldn't swat these annoying flies to death, so he could only forcefully
The raw land is dry.
After whipping the corpse, Uvarov knew that the heat was almost over, so he turned to Nicholas I and said calmly: "Your Majesty, it seems that the Grand Duke has no better idea, so I feel that the Grand Duke is no better than the Crown Prince.
Gao Ming, there is absolutely no need for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to learn from His Excellency the Grand Duke!"
These words were a direct slap in the face of Nicholas I. Anyway, the expression on this guy's face was very exciting, and he was so shocked that he couldn't speak, and he could only look down and get angry.
"Your Majesty, you are too harsh on the Crown Prince!"
Uvarov suddenly straightened his face and said to Nicholas I solemnly: "Perhaps His Highness the Crown Prince's suggestions are not particularly eye-catching, but overall His Highness the Crown Prince's suggestions are reasonable... As a matter of fact,
Although the prince should be strict with his requirements, he should not be too harsh!"
After saying these words, Uvarov's purpose became clear. In the eyes of Nicholas I, Uvarov was just complaining about Crown Prince Alexander and standing up for the crown prince. This made him quite unhappy. After all, now
He is the master of Russia, okay? Now that Uvarov has sided with Crown Prince Alexander before he even got up, doesn't he already regard Alexander as the master?
No emperor could stand this. After all, there are no two gods, no two people, no two masters. Anyway, Nicholas I completely hated Uvarov. If nothing else, this guy will probably be left in the cold.
But Uvarov's next words immediately changed Nicholas I's mind, because Uvarov said: "Your Majesty, you are right to have high standards and strict requirements for the crown prince. Otherwise, how can the future crown prince be responsible?
You have taken on a great national responsibility...but your strict requirements are also subject to rules!"
"After all, the crown prince is a prince, and the prince is also a king. How can he be insulted so easily? Today you humiliated the crown prince in front of all our ministers. If word spreads, other ministers will naturally look down on the crown prince. Where will the majesty of the royal family and the emperor be in the long run?"
"Such a trend must not fuel the rise, otherwise no one will be willing to be loyal to the crown prince or the royal family in the future. At least the country will be in turmoil, and at worst it will be caused by Xiao Qiang! How can you start this for the long-term stability of the country?"
"Weichen knows that his behavior is excessive and rude, and he is willing to accept punishment, but even if you want to punish Weichen, Weichen must defend the majesty of the crown prince and the dignity of the royal family and the country!"
Nicholas I immediately calmed down. Looking at Uvarov who looked resolute and loyal, he also knew that he had indeed gone too far today. The reason why Uvarov criticized him was to protect the emperor and the royal family.
Dignity, if he ignores it, then he is not a loyal minister!
Nicholas I was originally an emperor who attached great importance to "rules", and now Uvarov is essentially upholding the rules he set, so there is no problem.
"Earl, you are right. I did make a mistake! The prince should not be insulted lightly. My behavior today was really too much. I will always remember your advice and will never do it again in the future!"
Nicholas I's words were very eloquent, and he looked as if he had received re-education. Uvarov also looked touched. The two of them jointly performed what "the king is wise and the minister is loyal". Anyway, the scene was quite bluffing.
of.
But, yes, there are definitely buts. But this is just an act. Can Nicholas I’s bad temper be changed? Do you really think he will give Crown Prince Alexander much face in the future? No way,
At most, he just showed a little restraint when insulting Crown Prince Alexander.
As for Uvarov, he just saw the opportunity today to gain the favor of Crown Prince Alexander and the attention of Nicholas I. Do you think that if Nicholas I is determined to depose Crown Prince Alexander today, he Uvarov
Will my husband fight to the death?
That doesn't exist. If that day comes, Uvarov will kneel down and lick the new prince as soon as possible. A man who knows the current affairs is a hero, and he, Uvarov, knows the current affairs best. He will not do that kind of ignorance.
What a flexible, loyal fool!
In fact, most of the ministers present knew it very well and knew that this was just a show and should not be taken seriously at all...
