Chapter 134 Worry (2)

Regarding the sudden inspection by Muraviyov and Ilya, Alexei and Li Xiao were at a loss, not sure what Nicholas I meant. You said they came because of Viscount Prozolov and Count Vladimir, but the time is not right.

Calculated according to the distance and time, the two cases did not happen when the two received the order of Nicholas I to leave St. Petersburg! Nicholas I did not have a prophet, so how could he send someone to inspect in advance.

But if you want to say that they have nothing to do with Grand Duke Constantine and Count Vladimir, that's not necessarily true. You can only say that the timing of these two coming is too strange.

But regardless of whether it is strange or not, they should be received or received. Although they are not the so-called imperial envoys, they can be regarded as special envoys, and they have also received an inspection mission, so they must not be neglected!

"Your Excellency, Bucharest welcomes you..."

After the usual formulaic welcome ceremony, Alexey led Muraviev and Ilya into the conference room. Although he wanted to send the two to the hotel for corruption, he didn't know the reason for the two. Before, he didn't dare to make mistakes casually. In case the two came from the beginning, he was not kind, and his doing so did not mean that he would directly send the blame to others.

"I don't know what department you want to inspect first, General?"

Looking at the cautious Alexei, Muraviyov felt a little emotional. He understood Alexei's feelings too well. For those feudal officials who supported the reform, the special envoy or imperial envoy from St. Petersburg was the most acceptable. characters they worry about.

These guys were either specially sent by Nicholas I to beat them, or they were sent to supervise them. In short, these guys are generally malicious and difficult to dismiss.

Anyway, Muraviyov doesn't like dealing with this kind of guy at all, but today he turned out to be living a life that he hates, which is really impressive!

Of course, Muraviyov also made up his mind. As long as he has the ability, he will definitely speak well for Alexei. The good situation in Wallachia must be taken good care of.

Thinking of this, he glanced at Ilya next to him without leaving a trace, because Muraviev felt that the only person who could do something bad was the dog spy in the third part, and he had to find a way to shut this guy up!

Ilya didn't know what Muraviyov was thinking, but he was very sensitive to other people's eyes, so he was aware of Muraviyov's glance at him, and he could perceive something from this glance. Bad stuff, it seems the envoy has something else on his mind?

Look at Muraviev's old face,

Ilya couldn't help shivering in his heart. He knew that some nobles in St. Petersburg had such special hobbies, and he also heard that Siberia is a place where there are more men than women, which makes many people go crazy. , It is said that many people live like that.

Thinking of this, Ilya couldn't help shivering. He felt a chill inexplicably, and he moved his buttocks to keep himself away from "old rascal" Muraviev.

The little action between Ilya and Muraviyov did not hide from the eyes of Alexei and Li Xiao. They both noticed the strange aura between the two envoys, and immediately they looked at each other:

【Have you seen it? 】

【Saw! 】

They speculated that the relationship between the two special envoys might be problematic, and they didn't seem to be very harmonious, and this should be good news for them, at least when the worst happened, they could choose to fight each other or win over one party the other side.

However, they also know that it is too early to say these things for the time being, and it is best not to make mistakes until they have figured out the purpose of the two special envoys, and take a look first.

At this time, Muraviyov also replied with a smile: "Let's start with the army! At present, the relationship with Turkey is tense, and the most important thing is the military issue!"

Muraviev asked to see the army first, which surprised both Alexei and Li Xiao, because if Muraviev's task is to find faults, then the army actually doesn't have much to see, and even if there is a problem with the army , the big head of the board can't reach the ass of Alexei, the governor.

Alexei and Li Xiao thought that they would ask for an inspection of government affairs first. It's too normal for people to pick bones from eggs.

[Could it be that we guessed wrong? This person came to inspect military affairs only because of the Turkish issue? 】

Alexei and Li Xiao also discussed Muraviyov's intentions before, and there were many speculations, including the possibility that Nicholas I was going to be tough on Turkey and sent a general who knew military affairs because he was going to fight. Come check Wallachia's readiness for war.

It's just that this kind of speculation is too optimistic. Based on Alexei and Li Xiao's understanding of Nicholas I and the conservatives, it is not worth sending a special envoy just for this fact.

After all, Nicholas I had sent people to Wallachia every year to check the military situation on the pretext of inspecting military affairs, so there was no need to send a special envoy.

So they still tend to be more inclined to Nicholas I and the conservatives because the ulterior motives are not drinking. The inspection of armaments is just incidental, and beating them is the main purpose.

So even if Muraviyov said to check the military affairs first, Alexei and Li Xiao didn't dare to be careless. Who knows if the other party is planning to relax their vigilance before launching a surprise attack?

Muraviyov is not a first-time official, so he can naturally see the vigilance of Alexei and Li Xiao, which makes him a little relieved. He thinks that Alexei can make a career in Wallachia It really wasn't accidental. Because only those who have really been in Russian officialdom for a long time know the way.

What kind of talk is sweet, what is not true, what is the trick of selling dog meat, I don’t know how many, and I don’t know if I am cheated to death if I don’t pay attention. In such a harsh environment, you must maintain enough strength at all times. You can't relax your vigilance for a moment, you have to be like Alexei.

Of course, appreciation is appreciation. Muraviev is actually a little anxious in his heart. The reason why he proposed to inspect military affairs first is to avoid the important ones. He also knows that there are not so many tricks in the military affairs. The responsibility is also small.

But the government affairs are completely different. If there is a mistake, Alexei will bear the brunt of it and will be implicated. Therefore, he deliberately checked the military affairs first to buy Alexei a little more time and let them quickly clean up some finishing touches. ...
