Chapter 74
A mere Golitsyn family is naturally nothing, but even in a big country like Russia, there are not many forces like the Golitsyn family. Offending a Golitsyn family is nothing, but shamelessly using the Golitsyn family to cause the family to suffer huge losses is of a very serious nature.
For Grand Duke Constantine, wanting to compete for the throne is nothing more than winning the support of the upper and lower levels. The upper level kneels and licks his father Nicholas I to satisfy the old man. It is best to win over a large number of forces like the Golitsyn family. Everyone likes him, and it is not particularly difficult for him to be the emperor.
Of course, Grand Duke Constantine couldn't see such a situation. It's not that Nicholas I didn't like him. On the contrary, his father liked him very much, even more than Crown Prince Alexander. But the problem is that you like it, but Nicholas I is a rigid and disciplined person, so it is impossible for him to pass the throne to Grand Duke Constantine.
In this way, if Grand Duke Constantine wants to fight for the throne, he can only attract more forces to his chariot. This also determines that he must pretend to be a good person in front of the big Russian family, and things like making a fuss about Golitsyn's death must not have anything to do with him.
Because once it gets out, which family would dare to cooperate with him in the future, and no one likes a ruthless king, so they started killing dogs before it succeeded, and it would be fine when Grand Duke Constantine is done!
Viscount Prozolov was clearly aware of this, that's why his face became so ugly, because if this matter got out... No! It will definitely spread. What will Grand Duke Constantine think of him when he finds out?
If you think about it with the back of your head, you know that Grand Duke Constantine will definitely be very angry. This will be an unprecedented blow to his reputation and reputation. Maybe it will make a large number of centrists like the Golitsyn family accelerate to move closer to Crown Prince Alexander. Isn't it a disservice!
"Bastard...damn..."
Viscount Prozolov's teeth were about to be gritted, because he knew very well that he would never be able to fill in the sinkhole. Looking at the expression of Marquis Golitsyn, it was clear that this damn bastard already hated him to death. Maybe he even hated Grand Duke Constantine, what a steal!
Viscount Prozolov regretted it when he arrived for the first time. The assassination of Golitsyn was still too reckless... In fact, Viscount Prozolov knew very well that under the circumstances he had only one way to go to assassinate Golitsyn. If Cen is not dead, there is no way to disturb the water, and all the plans behind the water cannot be implemented. The only thing he could complain about was that his subordinates were too incompetent in handling things, and someone took the opportunity.
Viscount Prozolov sighed in his heart. He knew that he had lost this time because he underestimated Li Xiao. This gendarmerie commander still has a few tricks, otherwise how could he predict his plan in advance and set up traps, etc. he.
"That's right, you won this sentence!"
Viscount Prozolov calmly replied, but his calmness was pretended no matter what, like the precursor of a volcanic eruption, and the next second he suddenly shouted: "But do you think you will win? ? Hahaha, what is a mere Marquis of Golitsyn, even if you save him, nothing will change! The final losers are still you!"
Viscount Prozolov's self-confidence comes from the fact that he placed an insider next to Count Vladimir. He believes that the insider has poisoned Count Vladimir according to his instructions at this time. As long as the count dies, he will lose Ge So what about Litzen's game? In the end, the angry Nicholas I will still help him teach Li Xiao and Alexei how to behave!
At this moment, as if to match Viscount Prozolov's self-confidence, Anton rushed in and whispered something next to Li Xiao. Although his voice was relatively small, Viscount Prozolov still vaguely heard "" Count Vladimir" and the words "poison".
But at this time, the bad breath that just surged up in his heart was excreted all at once, he felt unprecedentedly comfortable, and immediately burst out laughing.
"Count Vladimir was poisoned to death? Tsk tsk tsk, this is great news! Let me think, a dignified count of the empire was poisoned to death in Bucharest. Your Excellency Governor, your respect for Wallachia Governance is really successful!"
Speaking of which, Viscount Prozolov presumptuously dismissed it a few more times, and then sarcastically mocked: "No! This is not the first time that Count Vladimir has been assassinated. The scarlet fever in front is so inexplicable, After finally getting better, he was poisoned again in the blink of an eye, tsk tsk tsk, it's clear that someone wants Count Vladimir's life!"
He looked at Alexei and Li Xiao bleakly, his eyes were filled with joy, and he couldn't wait to see how Li Xiao and Alexi became angry from embarrassment.
"It's true that I have the suspicion of assassinating the Marquis Golitsyn, but it's just a suspicion, and if I take a step back, so what if Golitsyn, an idiot, is dead? A hundred of him are not as good as a Vladimir Earl, Your Excellency the Grand Duke and the Governor should think about how to explain to His Majesty!"
After a sudden pause, he laughed loudly and said, "No, no, no! It's already too late, how could His Majesty listen to your explanations, I think it's better for you to prepare for your affairs quickly, otherwise it will be too late!"
Speaking of this, Viscount Prozolov was almost insane, he yelled and laughed presumptuously, and the kind of joy from the heart was creepy.
After he finished laughing and couldn't scream anymore, Li Xiao said slowly, "Did you make a mistake? Count Vladimir is still alive and well!"
Viscount Prozolov was taken aback, and then smiled contemptuously: "Hmph! Come on, I heard clearly just now that no one can survive under that dose of arsenic, even if Count Vladimir is a big-headed Elephants are impossible! My good brother, don't deceive yourself, and face the reality! There is not much time left for you!"
Li Xiao chuckled and said, "First of all, I want to ask you, how did you know that the poisoner used arsenic? Major Anton didn't mention this at all just now. I can't help but ask how you are a prophet." premonitory?"
Viscount Prozolov was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he was too happy just now to say that he had slipped his tongue, but he was not afraid, instead he said with more contempt and sarcasm: "This is the way you thought of turning things around? I have to say It’s so disappointing to me, as long as I insist that I didn’t mention the arsenic, what can you do to me?”
