429 Please Bear with Me

Bariatinsky knew that if outsiders had such an impression, even if Count Uvarov could not be defeated for a while, it would be a huge blow to his reputation.

Besides, this time there is the endorsement of Crown Prince Alexander, even if Count Uvarov became angry and wanted to settle accounts with him, he would not be afraid. He even wished that Count Uvarov would become angry with embarrassment, which would just cause Crown Prince Alexander to conflict with him.

hum!

At that time, the fun will be great. Anyway, Bariatinsky does not believe that Count Uvarov really dared to kick the son of Crown Prince Alexander. That old fox knows what can and cannot be done, even if he is angry, he can only smash it. Teeth swallowed.

As soon as he thought of Count Uvarov's humiliation, Baryatinsky felt a little dark, and immediately he said to Pobedonostsev: "Very well, I will do as you said, and do it boldly. If you need my cooperation, just say it!"

It is even more impossible for Pobedonostsev to be persuaded by Bariatinsky being so "powerful", so the rumors about Count Uvarov in the aristocratic circles of St. Petersburg increased suddenly, and in a few days almost everyone Everyone knows that he was rejected by Nicholas I.

"Count, something is wrong!" Old Adlerberg was the most sensitive to these rumors, and he was the first to report to Count Uvarov after discovering something was wrong, "Suddenly there are a lot of rumors about you in the market, There are rumors that His Majesty is extremely disappointed in you and doesn't trust you anymore!"

In fact, Earl Uvarov has heard these rumors a little bit. After all, he is not deaf, but the part he heard is not so serious. At most, it means that he was beaten by Nicholas I.

Count Uvarov immediately realized that it was not good. It would be hell if there was no famous trick and no one playing tricks here.

He immediately asked, "Have you found out where the relevant news first came from?"

Old Adlerberg immediately replied: "I checked, and there are many sources of information, including the Ministry of War, the Ministry of the Interior, the General Staff, and..."

Listening to the series of departments listed by the old Adlerberg, Count Uvarov became more and more aware of the seriousness of the matter. Because generally such gossip involving a powerful minister in his position usually has a clear direction. It is impossible to spread from several departments at almost the same time.

In the past, this kind of news was at most that a couple of guys who liked to chew their tongues at the Winter Palace couldn't help grinning a few words. And now there are six or seven departments spreading such news at the same time, what does this mean?

This means that this group of people is well-organized, planned and carefully implemented,

It means that there must be a powerful force behind the scenes manipulating all this!

In short, Count Uvarov knew that someone was shooting at him!

It's just that there is too little relevant information for the time being, so he can't guess who is playing tricks. Of course, it doesn't mean that he has no suspects. With his sensitivity, he can roughly delineate a range of suspicions. For example, Bariatinsky must be among them.

After thinking for a while, Count Uvarov immediately asked again: "What are Bariatinsky and others doing recently?"

In fact, not only he and old Adlerberg also think that Bariatinsky and his gang are the most suspicious, because first of all, he has a close relationship with Crown Prince Alexander, so he can know the secret information, and secondly, it is more beneficial for him to spread these rumors, after all. He had tried to question Count Uvarov at the meeting before.

It's normal to be bright and play dirty, but old Adlerberg is a little confused why Bariatinsky's courage suddenly became bigger?

"They're very active," old Adlerberg replied unequivocally, "they've been meeting secretly for several days, because I'm not familiar with their circle, so I don't know what they're talking about! "

Count Uvarov snorted directly: "What else can we talk about, don't think about it, he is the one who released these rumors! This guy..."

Count Uvarov was so angry that his teeth were itchy. He felt that he was not bad to Bariatinsky, and he had been caring for his growth, and he did not give them shelter from the wind and rain. But these wolf cubs are now taking advantage of his old age to think of rebelling, which is tolerable or unbearable!

Count Uvarov's face was cloudy and uncertain, and old Adlerberg's heart was fluctuating. For this old fox, he naturally didn't want to see Count Uvarov and Barry. Yatinsky had a big conflict, because it meant internal division.

No matter who wins or loses in the end, there will definitely be a batch of cannon fodder thrown out as consumables. While it is unlikely that he himself will become cannon fodder, it is entirely possible that his men will be consumed.

For the old Adlerberg, who has lived an extremely aggrieved life for the past one or two years, every ounce of strength at hand is extremely precious, and he does not want to be wasted in vain.

What's more, he also knew that the rumors spread by Bariatinsky and others were not rumors, but facts. Count Uvarov was indeed disgusted by Nicholas I. Although it may only be temporary, it is undeniable that if the two sides start a war at this juncture, it is hard to say how Nicholas I will choose.

Even if the majesty chooses to ignore it, it will be a huge blow to Count Uvarov. After all, the people below are watching. Once they find out that Nicholas I did not protect Count Uvarov, then Didn't those rumors become more and more confirmed?

And once the rumors are confirmed, even if Count Uvarov wins in the end, it will be nothing but a miserable victory. It can be imagined that since then, it is impossible for him to imagine the previous one controlling the situation!

I am afraid that the conservatives will enter the post-Count Uvarov era ahead of time, and various competitions will be more intense, turmoil and chaos will be unavoidable, and maybe a new and more comprehensive internal battle will start in full swing!

And these are very unfavorable to the old Adlerberg, whose power has shrunk greatly. Now he relies on the help of Earl Uvarov to stabilize his position. How could Count Valov still have the energy to protect him.

Old Adlerberg swallowed while thinking about it, and said to Count Uvarov cautiously: "Count, I think Bariatinsky's group came prepared this time, and I'm afraid they have nothing to fear. You If there is a conflict with them at this time, I'm afraid it's because of carelessness and deliberation, and it may not be able to gain the upper hand!"

Count Uvarov glanced at him, but didn't express his opinion immediately, as if he was thinking about gains and losses, which gave the old fox some confidence, and he said again: "I think it's better to bear with it, and it won't be too late to teach them after this window ..."
