Chapter 233
Count Uvarov snorted coldly in his heart, and said to himself: [How can you be so kind! I think you are like a weasel giving a New Year greeting to a chicken! 】
Although he was very disdainful in his heart, Count Uvarov just coughed twice pretendingly: "It's nothing, I'm old, I feel cold occasionally, just rest and rest. Please come to visit, thank you for your kindness. "
Bariatinsky's face was full of smiles, and he said with a caring look: "So it's just a cold occasionally, that's great, we all feel that you have such a cultivation, we all feel that we have no bottom, it's not everyone Just entrust me to come and see you and see if you have any orders?"
When Uvarov heard this, he felt bored again, because Bariatinsky's words sounded like visiting a sick man, but in fact they meant a bit of showing off and probing. As if to say: Did you see that when you fell ill, everyone recommended me to be your successor, and everyone recommended me to visit you. Look at how much everyone trusts me!
As for "see if you have any orders", it should be understood as if you should talk about what happened to the Black Sea Fleet last time, and you have nothing to explain?
Hearing this, Uvarov felt happy, it would be called hell, but this old fox is very deep, even if his stomach is full of fire, the kind that can breathe fire when he opens his mouth is not good for color.
I saw him replying very plainly: "What can I order? An old bone like me might go to heaven at any time. The only thing that worries me is the state affairs. Seeing that it is troublesome again, You young people are inexperienced, you do things carefully, and you like to compare short and long in secret, I am really worried that if I leave like this, you will mess up yourselves!"
Now it was Baryatinsky's turn to be unhappy. He was just flattering the old guy just now. Who would have thought that the old guy would just climb up the pole and start to teach him a lesson.
What's more, what's inside and outside the words are beating meanings, what's inexperienced, what's troubled, what's not measured, what's short and long, it's full of connotations!
This is nothing more than to remind him that Nicholas I is still in power now, don't think that holding the crown prince's thigh can stop eating beanbags as dry food. And I didn't forget to remind him that without his old man in charge, it would be very difficult for the conservatives to get him, Bariatinsky, as the leading brother in the end!
Although Baryatinski was very unhappy, he had to admit that if the boss Uvarov really disappeared, the conservative faction would first have to fight among themselves, and choose a new boss without breaking the bank. Things are not over.
And although he has won the favor of Crown Prince Alexander, he is still far from shocking the audience! Without Uvarov's support, it may not be easy for him to "unify the country", and it may really capsize the ship.
Judging the situation and recognizing the situation, Baryatinsky still understands,
He is very clear that Count Uvarov is actually more beneficial to him now. As for stimulating the boss from time to time, that is also necessary. After all, the second child is the most difficult to be, and it is easy to be played to death by the boss without any skills.
So he immediately smiled and said: "You are right, with you in our hearts, we are sure!"
After a short pause, he asked again: "By the way, everyone is very concerned about the situation of the Black Sea Fleet. Berge's sudden dismissal caused rumors to fly, saying everything, and causing panic. I think you still Hurry up and clear the source so that everyone can feel at ease..."
Count Uvarov glanced at him and sighed secretly. He knew that Bariatinsky was up to no good. But he also knew that since the other party dared to speak clearly, it meant that he had a deep understanding of this issue and was not afraid of offending him.
It is very likely that those guys outside have reached an agreement, which is why Bariatinsky came to ask to understand. If he continues to avoid answering, he will appear guilty.
After pondering for a while, Uvarov replied: "My illness is caused by the Black Sea Fleet. This time the incident happened suddenly, and we didn't even figure out the reason. We were very passive, and I couldn't think about it. It's the solution!"
After pretending to sigh, he said again: "What's worse, I sent Baron Titov to deliver a letter to Berge. I originally expected Berge to make preparations and pack up his hands. There was an accident!"
Speaking of this, Count Uvarov raised his head and looked straight at Bariatinsky, carefully observing the other party's reaction to see what this guy was thinking.
Baryatinski did not disappoint him either. He was shocked at first when he heard this, and then asked with a worried look on his face, "Why, didn't Berge handle the matter properly? How can this be done!"
Count Uvarov sneered in his heart, and sneered at Baryatinski's pretentiousness, because his acting skills were so poor, he could tell at a glance that the other party had already known the news, but it was just a feigned surprise.
However, Count Uvarov did not expose him, but echoed and sighed: "Berge is really not satisfactory. If I knew he was so useless, I shouldn't have recommended him to take over the Black Sea Fleet. A mistake will cause eternal hatred." ah!"
This time it was Baryatinski's turn to hehe in his heart. There was no way to let Berkh take over the Black Sea Fleet back then, because the conservatives couldn't find a second suitable candidate besides him.
Rather than saying that Berge was recommended by Count Uvarov, it is better to say that Berkh is destined to be the commander of the Black Sea Fleet. Whether there is a recommendation from Count Uvarov is the same thing. Of course, with Count Uvarov's recommendation, it's true that it's easier for Berge to assume the position.
But these are not the main point. The point is that Earl Uvarov just admitted that the situation in the Black Sea Fleet is very bad. It seems that Berge failed to clean up the situation. Now it seems to be out of control?
Bariatinski still knows Berge well. Although his ability is average, he is basically reliable in doing things. Ordinarily, I received the instruction of Count Uvarov, so there is no reason why such a trivial matter should not be done properly!
"Count, what's going on? The rumors outside are not good for us now!"
In fact, Earl Uvarov also knew that there might be rumors, but it is not necessarily bad for them, because although the Black Sea Fleet is important, it is not fundamental to conservatives, otherwise when Lazarev was the commander before How do they live?
It's more likely that the rumors are aimed at him, maybe the bastard in front of him is responsible for making these rumors...
