Chapter 42 Viscount Prozolov (Part 1)

Just when Oreste was arrested, Bucharest ushered in a mysterious guest. This person entered the most luxurious hotel in Bucharest in a luxurious carriage with unusual high profile, and asked for the most luxurious suite. Carve a line of Lao Tzu is very rich on the forehead.

This person was in his early thirties, with dazzling blond hair and a thick bushy beard. He looked very manly and heroic, and his figure was even taller, not much worse than Boris.

Naturally, it was impossible for such a person to enter Bucharest without escaping the eyes of the Gendarmerie Command, and soon his identity surfaced——Viscount Paul Konstantinovich Prozolov.

The viscount is not a high nobleman. In St. Petersburg and Moscow where the princes are everywhere, it can be said that they are nothing. Anyway, if you only look at the title, this Viscount Prozolov is a real little man.

It stands to reason that the Gendarmerie Command would not pay special attention to such a small person. Well, at least at the beginning, neither Li Xiao nor Anton paid special attention to this viscount, even if the viscount said that the reason he came to Bucharest was to visit friends.

This reason is nonsense, as long as a normal person will not believe that a Russian nobleman whose native place is St. Petersburg has friends in Bucharest, thousands of miles away, even if he says that he is dating a mistress, it may be convincing.

But Viscount Prozolov insisted that he was the visiting friend, because he thought he was a very honest person and didn't bother to lie.

"Go to the Grand Duke Andrei Konstantinovich Romanov's residence and post a greeting, and tell His Excellency that I hope to visit him at ten o'clock tomorrow morning!"

This was Viscount Prozolov's first order after he washed away the dust, and it was obvious that he was here for Li Xiao.

If it wasn't for this inexplicable invitation, Li Xiao really wouldn't have noticed this Viscount Prozolov. Although the following people mentioned this unusually wealthy and generous Viscount in today's report, he really didn't listen. Having mentioned the viscount's name, he is neither a historical giant nor a star in St. Petersburg in this era. In short, he is unknown.

Li Xiao, a little person who is not well-known in history and reality, usually doesn't take it to heart, just treat him as an ordinary leaf, either growing on the branch like other leaves, or falling on the mud. Medium and silent. In short, Li Xiao was very surprised when he heard that the viscount wanted to visit him. He couldn't understand why this viscount came to him—could it be that this so-called visiting friend came to him?

[The problem is that I don't know him at all! 】

Li Xiao can be sure of this, because there is no impression of Prozolov in either his previous memory or his own memory. To him, this person is a real stranger, who has no connection and has never met!

But what's interesting is that such a stranger came to the door on his own initiative.

And it seems that Li Xiao will meet him, which is very interesting.

Li Xiao suspects that this guy is planning to find another way to attract attention. In the past two years, with Alexei and him running Wallachia well, it's not that no one tried to get their ideas, or they came to the door by begging around. Or they will come up with some eye-catching actions to attract their attention. The ultimate goal is not to get a piece of the pie or to find a way out.

Li Xiao has no way to stop or resist this, he can only see the tricks, kick out all the waste that beats the autumn wind, and talents with some abilities may as well try to use them. The local nobles in Wallachia are more reliable.

Li Xiao thinks that Prozolov should be the latter, because from the description of his subordinates, this guy does not seem to be short of money, so the possibility of asking for money is not high, but Li Xiao thinks that if the people below are not mistaken, this guy If Prozolov is really so generous, it is not difficult to find a job as an official, there is no need to go to Bucharest!

Li Xiao waited for Prozolov to come to his door with all kinds of questions, and he began to be a little interested in this mysterious guy.

When the clock in the office rang at ten o'clock, the secretary knocked on the door: "Your Excellency, Viscount Prozolov is visiting!"

Li Xiao looked at the clock that was still ringing, and then at the secretary. He became more and more interested in Prozolov. Compelling.

"Please, Your Excellency the Viscount, go to the living room!"

As the door of the reception room was pushed open, under the guidance of the secretary, Viscount Prozolov walked into Li Xiao's sight with dignity. Yes, this man walks very boldly, those who don't know think he is a prince or something!

"Hello Your Majesty the Grand Duke!"

Prozolov slightly nodded his head and looked so polite. His movements were very beautiful, chic and elegant but not rude.

"Hello, Your Majesty the Viscount!"

Li Xiao became more and more interested in this person, because this kind of calm, elegant and unrestrained temperament is not something that ordinary little nobles can have. And he keenly noticed the viscount's accent, which was rich and standard Parisian-style French. Compared with the crappy accents of those provincial nobles, he seemed so pure, as if he had grown up in the court of Versailles.

Of course, Li Xiao's ears heard something different. Although the viscount hid it well, there was still a little German accent in it, which seemed to be a bit of a Prussian accent. Obviously, his German was probably not bad.

This is very strange, because in Russia, an aristocrat who is really obsessed with French culture and customs disdains a German accent, because compared with France, Germany, especially Prussia, is like an out-and-out bumpkin.

Unless they are born with Prussian blood, no one wants to have that accent. Is this Viscount Prozolov a Prussian?

It is not uncommon for Prussians to serve in Russia. The famous General Dibic is of Prussian descent, and many famous Prussian generals have a history of serving in Russia. Li Xiao doubted that the viscount's lord might have made his home in Russia during the time of Napoleon the Great.

However, Li Xiao was not in a hurry to ask immediately, because although he was very curious, he was not so curious that he had to find out clearly. It is best to restrain your curiosity, otherwise you will pay a heavy price.

So he asked unhurriedly: "Your Excellency Viscount, I don't think we have met each other before. What can you learn from your sudden visit?"
