Chapter 895 Reminder

Time may not be urgent for big guys like Nikolai Milyuting, but it is completely different for little shrimps like Li Xiao.

If we don’t solve the internal problems in the Third Hall of St. Petersburg while Nikolai Milyutin is exerting pressure on Kanditantin Pobedonostsev, then we will think about it once Nikolai Milyutin is done with it. It is not impossible to solve those clever ghosts, but the price will definitely be very high, and the complexity will make your head hurt.

It would be the easiest way for Li Xiao to simply attack them with broad strokes and teach them into obedience. At least for the time being, Kanditantin Pobedonostsev had no time to consider the impossibility of intervention, which reduced the bulk of the trouble.

Therefore, Nikolai Milyutin agreed with Li Xiao's opinion, although he still believed that there might be problems in doing so, and it might also cause some dishonest guys to rebel wildly. But all things considered, this is indeed the most reasonable thing to do.

"Well, if you encounter a problem, you can come to me and I will try to help you solve it," Nikolai Milyutin replied sincerely: "Of course, the premise is that it is a small problem. If you cause a big mess, you You also know that I may not be able to take care of you..."

This time it was Li Xiao's turn to be surprised, because he had long heard about Nikolai Milyutin's opinion of him from old Igor. Generally speaking, this reformist boss did not like him, but instead talked to Kang Archduke Standing was relatively friendly, so he never expected to get help from him in the near future.

To be honest, as long as Nikolai Milyutin doesn't cause trouble with Grand Duke Constantine, he will be thankful.

But now this person actually told him that he could provide help, even if he added a condition at the end, but no matter how you look at it, this is very unusual and not easy.

Li Xiao suddenly felt enlightened. No wonder Nikolai Milyutin became a representative figure in the early stage of Alexander II's reform. It's clear just by looking at his broadmindedness. This person may have some problems with the overall situation and acumen, and often has poor control of the rhythm, but it is undeniable that he has a unique personality and charm, and can unite reformists who have very different internal opinions into one. overall.

To be honest, this is not easy.

Judging from what Li Xiao has seen and heard in the past few months, it is unreasonable for the conservatives to be greatly reduced in strength due to the internal strife between the old faction headed by Count Uvarov and the young faction headed by Baryatinsky.

At that time, the reformist faction was actually a barrel of mud at best. Why? Because even reformers have degrees. Let’s put it this way, people who support reforms in Russia are generally divided into these categories.

One type is the enlightened people headed by Duke Alexander Gorchakov. Although they also recognize the importance of reform, they do not advocate thorough reform. They are unwilling to touch the main body of the Russian political structure and are only willing to carry out limited reform. improvement.

It is actually more appropriate to call them reformists.

The second category is the true reformers represented by Nikolai Milyutin and Grand Duke Constantine. They hope to abolish some of Russia's old habits, such as the serfdom system, and hope to carry out large-scale reforms in Russia. However, at the same time, they are unwilling to completely draw a clear line with the conservatives and truly eliminate all the ancestral rules in Russia that are unreasonable and inconsistent with the trend of the times.

They should be called limited reformists.

The third category is actually the radical reformers represented by the advanced Russian intellectual Herzen who was exiled abroad. They demand a large-scale and even thorough reform of Russia, and solve all historical legacy in one step like the French Revolution. problem, leading Russia towards modernization.

This category is called radical reformers.

The last category is the most special, consisting mainly of reform terrorists represented by university students and progressive young people from small and medium-sized aristocrats. They hate all the old systems in Russia and vow to make a complete break with these old things. They hope to eliminate all old systems, including the Romanov family and the monarchy.

This type of person has a radical style and does not consider any consequences at all. Once they make up their minds, they become desperadoes. They were the ones who would later assassinate Alexander II.

Look at how complex the opinions within the reformists are, their voices are extremely inconsistent, and their pursuits are completely different. It can be said to be a fantasy to integrate all these people and ideas.

It can be said that no one can complete this integration, not Count Rostovtsev who hides behind the scenes, nor Nikolai Milyutin, who is open-minded, and Grand Duke Constantine, who has a "high reputation", does not have that ability.

Under this situation, it is commendable that Nikolai Milyutin can generally lead the reformists to move slowly in the direction he wants.

If it were someone else, such as Grand Duke Constantine, then the reformists would probably have to fight among themselves before reform could really begin.

And this is why Li Xiao admires him. Anyone can talk a lot, but how many can actually do it?

Even if Nikolai Milyutin could not completely carry out reforms, it is undeniable that his attempts were great enough.

Li Xiao always has respect for people who can do things, which is why Nikolai Milyutin doesn't like him but he likes him. What he despised was a guy like Archduke Constantine who was holding him back with his talk.

"Thank you for your kindness. If I really encounter the little trouble you mentioned, I will definitely ask you for help," Li Xiao bowed slightly and replied, "Your Excellency, I heard that Count Shuvanov is back?"< /p>

Nikolai Milyutin was stunned, because the topic was too jumping. Why did he suddenly care about Count Shuvanov?

Li Xiao answered frankly: "I have had some dealings with Count Shuvanov before. This person is very difficult to deal with and needs special attention!"

Nikolai Milyutin was stunned again, because Count Rostovtsev also gave the same warning, but the count said it more bluntly, almost directly saying that Count Shuvanov was a sinister, despicable and cunning person. You are a dirty kid, you can do anything, you have to be very careful.

"Is that count really that bad?" he asked in a low voice.

"Using "unbearable" to describe him is too polite. He is a pure villain, and he is the kind of person who is not ashamed but proud. He has no lower limit and will do anything that is beneficial to him, even if it means using any means. ”

After a pause, he continued: "What's even more frightening is that he is only interested in high-ranking officials and rich salaries, and has no concern for the future of the country. If betraying the country can satisfy all his despicable desires, he will not hesitate to sell out his motherland or even Sell ​​your soul!"
