Chapter 751 Who Is Scarier

Crown Prince Alexander's words immediately made old Adlerberg cold, because before he thought that the crown prince liked Adlerberg better, and he would sell him a little face. But this kind of talk, no matter how you listen to it, how awkward it is, okay?

[Could it be that this is really the death of our father and son! 】

At this moment, old Adlerberg couldn't help but scream in his heart, because if Crown Prince Alexander was unwilling to help, then he had only one last way to go and that was to ask the Queen for help.

Although he is very big in front of the empress, he also knows that Empress Alexandra Feodorovna is not particularly willing to intervene in political affairs, because this empress does not look like a quail who has no desires. Appearance, but in fact, he cares about his status more than anything else.

In order to keep her position as queen, and her position in Nicholas I's heart, this woman is extremely tolerant. She turns a blind eye to her husband's pursuit of flowers and asks Liu Zhanhua to mess with grass, and even takes care of those who seduce her husband. woman and illegitimate child.

So this queen can do anything, but there is one thing she will never do-that is to make Nicholas I unhappy. She resolutely refused to do anything that might make Nicholas I unhappy, including meddling in political affairs.

It's not that Alexandra really doesn't have any political ambitions, but that she knows very well that Nicholas I has zero tolerance for this, and he is determined not to allow Russia to have another Catherine the Great.

So if it was something else, it might be fine to go to the queen, but it would really take a lot of face to expect the queen to help intercede and win people's peace.

Although old Adlerberg has this kind of face, he can indeed persuade the queen to help, but the price is too heavy. Because once he did this, it meant that the relationship between him and the queen for many years was over. For the queen, he is no longer a friend but a courtier.

This kind of opportunity is so precious that the old Adlerberg was originally reserved for critical moments, because this is really a chance to save his life. However, when I thought about how I had struggled for so long, my only hope was with little Adlerberg. If this kid was finished, the family would not be able to improve for at least thirty years.

A political family fell down for thirty years and then wanted to make a comeback and make a comeback. There is no such precedent in Russia. For example, Menshikov, his grandfather collapsed in the era of Catherine I, but when it comes to him I trembled again.

It's just that not all families can be as lucky as Menshikov. More old-fashioned families have never improved after they fell. Look at the dukes who were poor in Moscow. Which of them was not a famous family back then? number ah!

Even those dukes are like this, not to mention that their Adlerberg family is just an earl, so it may be harder than going to heaven to turn around!

So old Adlerberg knew very well in his heart,

Once he falls down this time, Adlerberg will be finished, so even if he only has one chance to ask Queen Alexandra for help, he can only use it reluctantly!

Of course, the old fox also felt extremely heartbroken when using it. He will always remember Duke Mikhail, Alexei, Kogalniceanu, and Crown Prince Alexander who was unwilling to help. Make these people pay!

Dmitry Milutin whispered to Count Rostovtsev, "That old fellow has an ugly expression!"

Count Rostovtsev just looked up at the window. Through the window, he could see old Adlerberg getting into his carriage in a daze. His spine, which was always straight, also bent, as if he had aged in an instant. twenty years old.

"Really?" Count Rostovtsev smiled, and said coldly, "That's not enough! I'd rather see him in a state of despair, where is he now!"

Dmitry Milyutin was a little confused as to why Count Rostovtsev wanted to target this old Adlerberg, who didn't seem to be too harmful. Minister, the status is not high at all, and what he does is more of a pimp, what is so scary about such a person!

"You think I'm making a fuss out of a molehill?" Count Rostovtsev asked.

Dmitry coughed dryly. He really felt that Count Rostovtsev had made a big fuss. Not only did he personally destroy Adlerberg's future in front of Nicholas I, but he also specifically asked him to be with Crown Prince Alexander. Let the crown prince stop helping old Adlerberg.

With such a series of punches, the old Adlerberg was forced to show his last hole card to save his life. To be honest, Dmitry really didn't think this old man deserved to be taken so seriously.

"Because you don't know how difficult this old guy is!" Count Rostovtsev said suddenly, "I have seen very clearly by His Majesty's side in the Winter Palace over the years, what kind of character and tendency all these ministers have, and what kind of attitude they have. I know all about the means!"

Seeing that Count Rostovtsev suddenly became serious, Dmitry knew that what he was going to say next might be very important, so he immediately pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"Prime Minister Nesselrode, tell me how conservative he is. He is indeed conservative, but if there is another czar, if the czar is more enlightened, then he will follow suit!"

"Menshikov, don't look at him getting older and fatter. He looks like a representative of conservatives, but his conservatism is more to cater to His Majesty, because His Majesty is conservative. If His Majesty wants to be enlightened, then He will be enlightened!"

"Duke Aldorf, this is a smart and capable person. He knows what he can and cannot do, and he will do whatever he meets. He has this self-awareness!"

"Prince Chernyshov, well, if this vagabond hadn't been blessed by his ancestors, of course he wouldn't be able to become the Minister of War. In fact, this man is also a master who changes everything according to the wind. He will change everything according to another emperor! "

The more Dmitri listened, the more solemn he became, because this was Count Rostovtsev's comment on the ministers in the court. They all made it clear what kind of people these ministers are. These messages are really precious. It can be said that it is the accumulation and essence of Earl's decades of official career.

"For those of us who want to change, there are not many enemies that really need attention. To put it bluntly, there are only a few people. Among these people, the one who needs the most attention is Uvarov , followed by this Vladimir Adlerberg!"
