Under the spotlight, Li Xiao said unhurriedly: "The last person I want to thank is my uncle, His Majesty Emperor Nicholas I!"
This beginning made Nicholas I look a little better. In fact, not only him, but also the onlookers secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although this kind of violent news sounds exciting, the consequences are worrying! Who knew that this dictatorial and iron-blooded man would
What will His Majesty the Emperor do! They don’t want to get on that Supreme’s blacklist for no apparent reason.
Nicholas I did not expect that the bigger news was still to come. He thought to himself: "You finally know how to be afraid and awe, but you thanked me in the end. Hum, it's a bit late!"
But Nicholas I had no idea that what was waiting for him was not real gratitude, but criticism and slaps in the face!
"Ever since I was a child, His Majesty has held me to high standards and strict requirements, even for my own flesh and blood, that is, for my dearest cousins, Crown Prince Alexander and Grand Duke Constantine. In order to prevent me from developing an extravagant and lewd personality, he
He took away the property left to me by my parents, so that I could appreciate the hardships of life and the importance of hard work in a difficult and difficult environment; in order for me to study hard and not be contaminated by the decadent atmosphere of wealth and wealth, he arranged for me to go to ordinary civilians.
Every time I got a little bit of trivial results, he would always use the most severe and demanding attitude to get me back on track; in order to cultivate me into a real nobleman and a man, he would always use the hardest and most difficult methods to get me back on track.
The most dangerous position that can train people is left to me... It is under the spur of this meticulous, critical and almost harsh attitude that I learned to persevere, to endure suffering, to go against the current, and to be very lucky.
After passing this almost hellish trial of the Knights of St. Andrew, it is obvious that the reason why I have achieved this meager result is all due to Your Majesty's careful cultivation of me. Without you, I would not be where I am today.
success. So please allow me to express my sincerest gratitude to you! Thank you!!”
When Li Xiao finished speaking and walked away, the entire Senate Square was silent. The previous cheers of the mountains and tsunamis disappeared without a trace. Even the dullest people could tell that there was something wrong with this style of painting. Even if it was
A certain person repeatedly expressed his gratitude to the emperor, but no one dared to agree with him and applaud him.
The nobles in the audience kept their mouths shut, for fear of making any sound, because they could see that the faces of His Majesty the Emperor, the Crown Prince and Grand Duke Constantine on the stage were very ugly. A sense of oppression that was about to come made everyone feel sad.
It's all heavy inside - what's next is the wrath of thunder and lightning, right? That ignorant Grand Duke Andrei Konstantinlovitch will probably be thrown into Krest Prison by His Majesty and never see the light of day again.
Bar?
Of course, not all nobles felt depressed and fearful. Those who were originally afraid of chaos and liked to gossip about the inside story of the royal family were excited. What did they hear? Nicholas I abused his brother Grand Duke Constantine at all costs.
The only descendant, this is a huge melon!
Who would have thought that such a big melon would be exposed so openly? How much gossip would this cause? It seems that over the years, the only thing that can compare with this melon is the secret will written by Catherine the Great to Paul I.
Has the letter been exposed?
Anyway, the people who eat melons expressed great interest and said that the revelations could be more violent. They can't wait to eat melon seeds to watch the follow-up show.
Nicholas I's face was gloomy. He realized that he had underestimated his nephew. This little bastard was so cowardly that he dared to humiliate him in public. He felt like there were flames in his throat. How many years, how many years?
He has not been so angry in years. This raging flame must be extinguished with blood. Today, he must kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, otherwise the world will think that he, the emperor, is just a decoration.
Nicholas I was so angry that he was about to go on a killing spree, but just when he was about to give the order, a man whose face could not be seen in the shadows behind him walked quickly to his side, preventing him from bursting out impulsively.
Even if this man walked out of the darkness and came to the center of the stage, he still couldn't see his face clearly. His high stand-up collar covered most of his face, leaving only a narrow slit to reveal a pair of eyes.
What kind of eyes are these. Gloomy, deep, without any emotional fluctuations, as if they are a dead sea that will never make waves.
To the eye, this person is like a ghost, a ghost, a monster that does not exist in this world. But this monster easily stopped Nicholas I's anger. He only said one sentence and then retreated indifferently.
Arriving in a dark corner, it was as if he had never appeared before.
But this sentence worked. Although Nicholas I's face was still ugly, his emotions were no longer out of control. This cruel poisoner just gave Li Xiao a vicious look, and then ordered calmly: "
The ceremony is over, and the dance and banquet can begin!"
Following the tsar's order, the bells and drums of the military band under the ceremonial stage rang in unison, and the melodious music tore through the dead silence before, finally restoring some vitality to the almost stagnant scene. The frightened nobles were in panic.
He watched Nicholas I throw away his hands and leave, fearing that the furious Jupiter would unleash his thunderous wrath again.
However, Nicholas I just left without any intention of pursuing the matter further, as if it was not him who had just been humiliated, and as if nothing happened that night as usual.
Only Li Xiao and a very few people who are familiar with Nicholas I's character know how dangerous it was just now. If Nicholas I was allowed to vent his anger, there would be a river of blood tonight. Li Xiao naturally also had a feeling of surviving after the disaster.
In fact, he had some regrets just now. He felt that he was too impulsive. After all, he was not the real Andrei Konstantinlovic. Why would he risk his life for this evil predecessor?
Of course, Li Xiao was more curious about who was the person who stopped Nicholas I. Before, this person's presence was too weak, even though he had been accompanying Nicholas I and even stood on the podium.
, but before Nicholas I became angry, his existence was not noticed at all. What is even more surprising is what kind of magic power did he have that could easily persuade the angry poisoner?
It's a pity that Li Xiao, like everyone else, couldn't see clearly the true face of that person. He only thought that he was very mysterious, like a mist. However, he had a hunch that he would definitely meet this mysterious person again in the future.
