Chapter 225 Insidious

"Andre made a deal with Berge, and they have reached an agreement in private!"

After hearing this amazing news, Grand Duke Constantine threw the cup on the ground angrily. He felt a boiler burning in his heart!

"mash up!"

"These goddamn rascals! Damn bastards! How dare they lie to me!"

"Damn! Damn! Damn!"

Bestuzhev Ryumin looked at Grand Duke Konstantin, who was venting his anger on the furniture. He didn't dare to vent his anger, for fear of offending him if he didn't pay attention. Bestuzhev Ryumin didn't want to Be a punching bag.

After a while, when the expensive French antique tea table was smashed into a pile of rotten wood by Grand Duke Constantine, he finally took a breath. At this moment, Bestuzhev Liuming persuaded him anxiously: "Your Highness, the matter has already happened, and the most important thing now is to find a countermeasure!"

[Want to countermeasure? 】

Grand Duke Constantine just had this idea in his mind, but in a flash he was annoyed again—because thinking of a countermeasure is not that simple!

Berge, Li Xiao and the others have already worked hand in hand, which makes the situation of Grand Duke Constantine even more difficult. It is not difficult to imagine that they must have negotiated the terms. It is not that they want to find them. How can it be so easy!

So now he can only babble and curse: "These bastards, liars! Hypocrites who don't believe what they say..."

After scolding for a long time, probably tired of scolding, Grand Duke Constantine sat down on the sofa. At this time, he no longer had the ambition and high-spiritedness he had on the road before, but was replaced by deep depression.

After a while he murmured: "These bastards must not be so proud, do you think you can defeat me by doing this? Tell you, absolutely impossible! This will only anger me, and I swear I will make you pay the price !"

After waving his fist through the air a few times, Grand Duke Konstantin seemed to have recovered a little bit of courage, and he said firmly: "Fyodoro Petrovich, you immediately arrange a group of capable men for me, it turns out that outsiders are Unreliable, if we want to start a career, we can only use our own people!"

Grand Duke Konstantin came to this conclusion. Bestuzhev Ryumin can understand it, but he thinks it doesn't make much sense to do so. Being reliable means being reliable, but being reliable doesn't mean being useful! Most of his subordinates are spies from the military police, who are capable of doing some dirty and secret work,

But I don't know anything about the navy. What can these people do in the Black Sea Fleet? Make a fool of yourself?

"Your Highness, our own people are indeed reliable enough, but we know nothing about naval affairs!"

Hearing this, Grand Duke Konstantin just sneered: "Who asked them to do naval affairs? Let them do their job, and they are responsible for keeping an eye on Kornilov and his gang. I don't believe they have any clues. No!"

"I see!"

Bestuzhev Liumin nodded suddenly, he would understand if he did this. And this method should also work, after all, there are no real saints in this world, even if a saint wants to find fault, he can still find the problem.

After staring at Kornilov and Nasimov and grasping their handles, things will be easy. At that time, no matter how good they were, they had to exchange with Grand Duke Constantine.

It's just that it may not be so easy to do this. Not to mention how difficult it is, first of all, it takes time. Don't expect to have any major gains in a short period of time, and time is really too tight for Grand Duke Constantine.

After all, Nicholas I was about to be sixty years old, and the Romanov family really didn't have the genes for longevity, especially in the series of Peter III, the males were even shorter-lived. Although many of them died abnormally, look at Alexander I, who didn't survive to the age of fifty without any illness or disaster.

Even if Nicholas I was healthier than his elder brother, father, and grandfather, and could live past the age of sixty, with his stud's lifestyle, sixty-five years old might be the limit.

Therefore, at most the tsar can still work for ten years, which means that if Grand Duke Constantine cannot replace Crown Prince Alexander within ten years, then there will be no drama at all.

Bestuzhev Ryumin counted with his fingers. The time left for Grand Duke Konstantin is really running out. According to his method, it will take at least a year and a half to start controlling the Black Sea Fleet. of.

But the problem is that Nicholas I's decree made it very clear that Grand Duke Constantine is an acting commander, which is a helpless move in the current emergency. In other words, once the situation stabilizes, Nicholas I will definitely send someone more in line with his wishes to lead the Black Sea Fleet. That is to say, if Grand Duke Constantine cannot prove his ability in the short term, he will have no chance .

"This is a safe strategy," Bestuzhev Liumin reminded very cryptically, "but is it a little too late in terms of time?"

Grand Duke Konstantin knew what Bestuzhev Ryumin was worried about, but he also had tricks. He sneered and said, "Of course there is not enough time to find the evidence slowly, but I didn't say it back. Find it slowly!"

Bestuzhev Ryumin immediately understood that it was either planting a frame or setting a trap, in short, it was playing tricks. This is the only way to trap Kornilov and Nasimov.

More importantly, he is actually the best at these methods. The reason why he can be reused by Grand Duke Constantine is not because the Grand Duke values ​​his ability to do dirty work.

Immediately, he patted his chest and promised: "I will transfer the best people here immediately, and I can do it myself when necessary!"

Grand Duke Constantine waved his hand and said, "No, just send me a few competent people. You still keep an eye on Kiev, and it took you a long time to climb up to this position. You can't make any mistakes. You have to remember There are quite a few people in your position!"

After a short pause, he smiled and said, "Besides, you must show an outstanding performance as soon as possible. After all, the Duke of Aldorf is already old. How many years can he do? After a few years, if you can replace him, It will be easier for me then!"

Hearing these words, Bestuzhev Ryumin's heart was full of emotion. Who doesn't like the position under Duke Ordorf's butt? If he can climb to that position, he will really be the leading figure in Russia.

Even though he knew that Grand Duke Konstantin's words were a bit of a bad promise, Bestuzhev Ryumin couldn't help but imagine, he was impatient to do something big!
