Chapter 428: Fight Back

Bariatinsky nodded slightly after thinking for a moment, and said: "It's good to try it out, it happens that the crown prince also has the wish in this regard, but be careful not to be deceived by them!"

Pobedonostsev is also a good player in this regard. After all, he is neither good at government affairs nor military affairs, but only good at manipulating ideology. In a sense, he is very similar to Count Uvarov, but in all aspects The ability and means are all short of it.

This episode will end soon, because even if it is necessary to test, it cannot be completed immediately, and it needs time to prepare for the layout and set up. Bariatinsky and Pobedonostsev drifted away after dancing a few dances and joking with the ladies at the ball.

After all, they have more important things to talk about!

"Your Highness wants us to give Count Uvarov a little color?" Pobedonostsev was shocked by the news!

Because he saw Count Uvarov's attitude of leaving with satisfaction and ease before, he thought that the other party had a good talk with Crown Prince Alexander and had reached an agreement!

how?

Bariatinsky actually didn't understand why, because the servant only explained to him a few words, and it was not easy for him to go to Crown Prince Alexander to break the casserole and ask the truth on that occasion.

He could only guess from the words of the servant: "It seems that His Highness is very dissatisfied with Earl Uvarov's domineering, and thinks that he is a bit cynical, you know..."

Of course Pobedonostsev knew that if he were Crown Prince Alexander, he would be upset with an old power minister like Count Uvarov, first of all, he had great achievements, and then he was too senior and unprofessional. Any emperor has nothing to do with this kind of courtier, especially when such a courtier is very smart, and you can't easily catch him, it's even more annoying!

Such courtiers are simply old thieves to the emperor. If such old thieves are not dealt with, the emperor himself may not be able to sleep well!

Pobedonostsev has been with Crown Prince Alexander for so many years and knows that although the Crown Prince is a bit cowardly, his IQ is not a problem. He naturally knows what a veteran like Count Uvarov means.

Especially in the past two years, as the crown prince's momentum and majesty have become more and more powerful, he may also be more and more dissatisfied with these old guys standing next to him and dictating.

And this time is indeed a good opportunity to teach Earl Uvarov a lesson. Whoever made things in Kiev this time was so bad that anyone who knows the truth will inevitably instruct Count Uvarov to mess with Count Shuvalov. What came out was jaw-dropping.

After all, we are all nobles. Although we belong to different positions, we still have to talk about the most basic face and principles, right? But what you Shuvalov did this time completely exceeded the minimum of the rules. It was almost planting and framing and using everything to the extreme, and even if you were cruel to the enemy, that’s all, but you regarded yourself as the immediate boss. It was also emptied, completely treated as air, which made people intolerable.

The more conservative nobles actually pay more attention to the superiority and inferiority, because this is the most powerful weapon for them to protect their own interests. If the superior and inferior are not even necessary, then how can the group be maintained? By nonsense?

After all, Earl Shuvalov really went too far this time, stepping on the red line steadfastly. For the vast majority of conservative members, if everyone did this, wouldn't the world be in chaos!

Today you, Shuvalov, relying on the support of Count Uvarov, can go down and kill Peter Barek. Will you also get me on my head tomorrow?

In this regard, Count Shuvalov was guilty of public anger. If Count Uvarov hadn't been helping him to excuse him, he might not even be able to pass the level of his own people.

And Count Uvarov also caused criticism within the group because he was a little "too protective" of Count Shuvalov. Thanks to his many years of prestige to suppress it there, otherwise it would really be an uproar!

But even so, this is also a good opportunity for Bariatinsky and others. He tried to make trouble in the previous meeting, but on the one hand, Count Uvarov was able to fool the past with strong means, and on the other hand, Bariatinsky Kinsky also had concerns and did not dare to let go of his actions. After all, he is not stupid to know that the incident in Kiev has more or less the shadow of Crown Prince Alexander. Full firepower may accidentally injure the Crown Prince, which will be troublesome at that time.

But now Crown Prince Alexander personally dispelled his concerns, and even made it clear that he could mess with Count Uvarov, and it was best to sweep Count Uvarov's face severely so that he could not step down.

This is very comfortable for Crown Prince Alexander. It is equivalent to doing things casually with the gold medal for avoiding death. Then there is nothing to worry about, fuck him!

It's just that Bariatinsky is not particularly good at making troubles and shady people. He immediately asked Pobedonostsev for advice: "Konstantin, do you have any good ideas?"

Pobedonostsev and Baryatinsky are so closely aligned in their interests that they almost don't wear a pair of underpants. Naturally, he will respond to his elder brother's requests.

"Of course there is a way. Do you still remember what His Royal Highness told us before, that the report of the case did not convey the news to Count Uvarov?"

Bariatinski was taken aback, and hesitated: "You mean to spread the news? Is it a bit late?"

Pobedonostsev naturally knew why Baryatinski said it was a bit late. If the news got out before Count Uvarov held an internal meeting of the group, it would be very lethal. At that time, Uva I'm afraid Earl Rove will have to work harder to pass the level, and he might lose face.

But now that the limelight has passed, Count Uvarov has dealt with the crisis even though he is a bit embarrassed. It would be a bit late to spread the news at this time.

But Pobedonostsev smiled and said: "It's a little late, but it can't be said that it's completely useless. If Count Uvarov didn't let Adlerberg and his son invite His Highness to the ball, then we still have to There’s really no way to make a fuss!”

As he said that, he chuckled a few times, and said again: "But he just wanted to inquire about His Majesty's attitude from His Highness, so we can make a fuss about it... We just need to spread the previous news to the outside world, and then intentionally share it with the dance party." What do you think people outside will think about it?"

Bariatinsky thought about it for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up. What could outsiders think? They would only think that Count Uvarov fell out of favor in front of Nicholas I, and that he deliberately did not convey such a crucial case to him. Forcing him to ask Adlerberg and his sons to ask Crown Prince Alexander to help in the investigation of the case and test the attitude of Nicholas I...
