Struggle in Russia

Little Adlerberg didn't understand. The old man was obviously a little domineering today, so how could he still be unhappy? Isn't the lesson given to Grand Duke Constantine not enough? Or is this a retaliation for fear of Grand Duke Constantine's reaction?

"I'm not worried about Grand Duke Constantine." Old Adlerberg snorted contemptuously, "I'm worried about the other Grand Duke!"

Little Adlerberg is a little baffled, another Grand Duke? who? Whether it is Grand Duke Nicholas or Grand Duke Mikhail, those two are not as good as Grand Duke Constantine, they are still brats!

"What are the sons of His Majesty's family worried about?"

Old Adlerberg glared at him angrily, and said, "Those children are all like their fathers, and they are very good-looking. Grand Duke Constantine is considered a deep city among them. What do they have to worry about! "

Little Adlerberg asked strangely: "Then which Grand Duke are you worried about?"

Old Adlerberg said solemnly: "I am worried about that Grand Duke Andrei Konstantinovich!"

Little Adlerberg was stunned again, although he admitted that Li Xiao had some skills, but having some skills and being worth worrying about were two different things, okay? In his opinion, although Li Xiao had performed well before, it was probably luck that he seized the opportunity. As long as Nicholas I is serious, as long as Crown Prince Alexander and Grand Duke Constantine don't continue their internal strife, they will be crushed to death by Li Xiao just by sticking out a finger.

"childish!"

Old Adlerberg snorted again, and criticized very dissatisfied: "It seems that you are not much better than Grand Duke Constantine. You didn't realize the danger of that bastard Grand Duke at all!"

The old man's eyes suddenly radiated light, and he said seriously: "That bastard grand duke is indeed a little bit lucky. But it is not luck to turn bad luck along the way. Now it seems that he walked very steadily, and everything is in order. In his plan, the Duke of Ordorf, Menshikov, Grand Duke Constantine, Crown Prince Alexander..."

Speaking of which, the old man paused slightly, glanced at little Adlerberg, and commented very rudely: "And you are playing with the applause."

"The Duke of Ordorf can't do anything about him. Menshikov was suspended. Crown Prince Alexander was crying. It was the Grand Duke Constantine who seemed to have taken a lot of advantage, but he also paid a lot. Fei's price..."

"Haha, he exposed his ambition prematurely, and offended old officials like me. In the future, he will be full of bags and will be light. More importantly, his relationship with Crown Prince Alexander will never go back."

"Amazing!"

Old Adlerberg sighed faintly, and exclaimed in admiration: "I was wondering before, how could Grand Duke Constantine be so enlightened, and suddenly join forces with the family disgrace. This is something I have never figured out. Fits the personality of Grand Duke Constantine!"

"I thought that kid had changed his gender, or that he had powerful staff around him. Now it seems that this is probably the temptation of the bastard prince. He is really powerful. He uses all available means to attack the enemy, and he doesn't even care about grudges or anything. Honor and disgrace..."

Speaking of this, the old Adlerberg suddenly stared at the younger Adlerberg, looked up and down, and said after a long time: "I'm afraid you are not as good as him in this respect. You still care about face, reputation, and the ties of grievances. It is easy to be disturbed by these foreign objects. You are not as good as that bastard grand duke!"

Little Adlerberg was shocked again. This was the first time he was shocked today. But this time it was more violent than the previous few times, and he was actually evaluated by his old father as inferior to a bastard dwarf.

"Mongrel dwarf?"

Old Adlerberg sneered again: "I am also called a dull old bastard. Does this affect my being Minister of Palace Affairs, becoming His Majesty's confidant, or holding power?"

"Those things are meaningless! Even if a million people praise you as handsome, smart, and witty, you are a dragon among men,

But then are you really? "

Little Adlerberg fell silent. Because the old man is right, those are just false names. Whether this kind of fame is good or bad, it doesn't mean a dime. The real key thing is your real ability, and that is real.

"I know, father. From now on, I will definitely abandon the influence of those false names and look at things more objectively!"

"very good!"

Old Adlerberg nodded, he likes his son's aggressive style of correcting after knowing his mistakes the most. It doesn't matter if young people suffer a little loss or setbacks, as long as they learn lessons and improve, then every time they suffer a loss is a blessing!

"But I'm an afterthought."

The old man thought for a while and sighed: "If I knew that bastard had this ability, I shouldn't have let you participate in these crap things. The benefits are not much, but it is easy to cause trouble!"

Little Adlerberg seemed to want to say something, but he was hesitant. How could his expression be hidden from the eyes of the old fox, the old man immediately smiled and said, "Do you want to say that the situation is not that bad. As long as you finish repairing Grand Duke Constantine, then you can let go and teach that bastard a lesson?"

Little Adlerberg's Adam's apple twitched, and he really wanted to answer yes. But seeing the old man's joking expression, he swallowed those words cautiously.

"I still have a bit of memory. I know that there are some things that I can't answer after thinking clearly."

Old Adlerberg suddenly sighed again: "Do you think the bastard Grand Duke is still the same as he was a few months ago?"

Without waiting for little Adlerberg to answer, the old man continued on his own: "A few months ago, he was really nothing, and he could be knocked down with one finger. But it's completely different now, he messed up the situation." It's a mess and extremely complicated. Various interests are entangled with him, unless Grand Duke Constantine and Crown Prince Alexander can work together again, no matter which party wants to deal with him, the other party will hold back!"

"Not only that, he even established a cooperative relationship with the Gorchakov family. In this way, in order to protect their own interests, the Gorchakov family will definitely protect him."

"This kid is really amazing. He was able to knock on the door of Gorchakov's house and get those two old foxes willing to help. I really don't know how he did it!"

Old Adlerberg was full of sighs, and he said after a long time: "Well, in Sertorov, you should be more careful, do things without faults and without merit, and don't just join in the battle between the Crown Prince and Grand Duke Constantine. Fight between people. Keep a low profile, and don't deliberately target that bastard."

The old fox emphasized: "It's not that I don't like you, but it's more beneficial for us to keep this bastard for a while!"
