Chapter 425 Big and Small Foxes (Part 2)

Crown Prince Alexander suddenly realized: feelings, facts, and self-reflection are all fake. What you really want to know, an old fox, is the attitude of the old man!

But it's normal to think about it. The case in Kiev is already like that. It is impossible to continue to make fuss about Grand Duke Constantine. The only thing that can be done is to quickly eliminate the influence, especially not to let Nicholas I have opinions on him because of this is the most important thing.

Crown Prince Alexander thought a lot in an instant, remembering why Count Kleinmichel suddenly visited him before, and suddenly said something like that.

At that time, he was still a little baffled, but combined with Count Uvarov's current attitude, he really understood the deep meaning of it.

Feelings, this is his father taking the opportunity to beat this old fox!

As for why Earl Uvarov was beaten, there are actually very good reasons. It is true that the crown prince has a problem with the power minister getting close, but is there nothing wrong with the power minister?

What about your duty as a courtier?

Just the dead button alone can make Count Uvarov take off a layer of skin. What's more, Crown Prince Alexander also knew that Count Uvarov not only made friends with him in private, but also that the old fox had made countless small tricks, and those small tricks were strictly speaking taboo!

Crown Prince Alexander didn't know if his old father's sudden beating on Count Uvarov this time meant not only to warn him not to get too close to him, but also to notice his other small movements.

But thinking about it, with his father's personality and desire to control, it is definitely impossible not to notice at all. The reason why he made such a big move this time may be that he noticed some outrageous little moves of his, so he simply made a new account. Settle the old accounts together, beat him to the point at once, and get rid of his thoughts of messing things up!

After figuring this out, Crown Prince Alexander felt that his back was stiff. When he dealt with Count Uvarov before, he felt more or less a sense of urgency to face the teacher, and felt that he was going to be the first like.

But now? This old fox has completely lost the pride of the past, so he can only lower his proud head pitifully and beg him for information. This is really cool, giving Crown Prince Alexander a thrill of conquest.

Only then did he realize how important it is to be able to control the rhythm when dealing with courtiers. Look at his old father, just let Count Kleinmichel spread a little gossip to make the mighty Count Uvarov bow his head, how happy it is!

Thinking about how he used to beg his father to sue his grandmother to curry favor with these courtiers,

Let these guys become more and more proud and difficult to deal with. In contrast, he should feel ashamed.

At this moment, Crown Prince Alexander decided to learn more from his old father in the future, so as to master these advanced and useful methods as soon as possible, because he was fed up with the feeling of being manipulated by his courtiers!

Taking advantage of the psychological advantage, he raised his chin unconsciously, looked down at Count Uvarov and said, "This case is really bad. A governor was tricked by a woman so much that he allowed the Polish rebellion to run rampant." Wuji, he can even do it when he robs the prison... Yesterday they could rob the prison, but if they fail to do so tomorrow, they will assassinate the king!"

Earl Uvarov frowned at this cold reprimand, and he immediately noticed the change in Crown Prince Alexander. Obviously, the Crown Prince has realized his own value and has begun to manipulate him.

This made him smile wryly, because he had realized before that sooner or later Crown Prince Alexander would become a real tsar, but he felt that it might take a long time with his quality, and when the crown prince really completed his transformation, he would be very May have retired from the political arena.

But Earl Uvarov didn't expect Crown Prince Alexander to transform so quickly, and he became enlightened in a flash of inspiration. Look at his tone and style. After he tasted the sweetness this time, he may transform even faster in the future. The means will become more sophisticated!

And this means that these courtiers will not have a good life!

A king who is easy to control is what the courtiers hope to have most, and a king who likes to control everything and is clever is the nightmare of the courtiers.

Although Crown Prince Alexander will not immediately become a nightmare, considering that this one is still very young, he still has enough time to learn, especially considering that his experienced father is still alive, there will be opportunities to teach by example in the future.

It is conceivable that the lower limit of Crown Prince Alexander's future has been greatly increased, and he may not be as easy to serve as Earl Uvarov estimated in the future.

It's just that Earl Uvarov can't control that much at this time. For him, how to overcome the current hurdle and regain the trust of Nicholas I is the most important thing. As for Crown Prince Alexander's attitude towards him, it was nothing compared to this.

What's more, it's not that he hasn't served Nicholas I before, so it's not a bad thing to adapt to the style of the future tsar in advance!

It has to be said that Earl Uvarov's mentality seems to be mixed with Russian officialdom. Without this kind of slave mentality, he really can't serve these strange tsars in Russia.

Anyway, if it were someone like Li Xiao who had a more personality and a straight mind, not to mention falling out with Crown Prince Alexander on the spot, he would at least stab him a few words.

"Your concerns are very reasonable. What happened in Kiev is indeed incredible. It is necessary to seriously investigate the responsibility of the relevant personnel, especially for people like Peter Barek and Bestuzhev Ryumin. Severe and severe punishments... ...but then again..."

Uvarov paused again, and then said with a smile on his face, "The face of the nobleman is still important. If the punishment is too unseemly, I'm afraid it's not a good thing. After all, you can't chill the hearts of the people below, right?"

Crown Prince Alexander understood right away. It was Count Uvarov who told him that if you want to stand up, he has no objection, but there is a limit to standing up. If he does too much now, he will lose his love. It's not easy to meet, let alone continue to cooperate.

Crown Prince Alexander didn't dare to go too far, he just wanted to beat Count Uvarov and get rid of his arrogance. Now the old man's behavior is quite low-browed and pleasing to the eye, and this time Nicholas I just wanted to punish the old man a little bit. The old man's family is still there, so there is no need to offend people to death at this time.

So he nodded in a serious manner, and said with a hum: "That's right, it's good if you achieve your goal. For example, you, Earl, although Peter Barek was recommended by you, but you also had good intentions. I didn't expect him to be so helpless Go up the wall! So just be careful after a little reprimand!"
