Chapter 20 Headache

Li Xiao was also a little nervous when he received the latest news, because if Orest really had something to do with the third local film, then things would be a bit complicated. As Anton said, this guy is probably the third newly sent spy.

The third part of sending spies to Bucharest did not surprise Li Xiao at all, because the third part of this kind of thing never stopped. Beginning in 1849, which year did the third part not send a few people to Wallachia or Bucharest?

But this time the situation is different. The spies sent by the third department in the past will more or less first report and say hello to Adrian Bogdanovich, the supreme commander of the local third department.

And this Adrian Bogdanovich is the confidant of Duke Ordorf. Belonging to this faction close to Duke Alexander. It can be said that this person belongs to the same camp as Li Xiao and Alexei.

And Li Xiao has been bought by this Adrian Bogdanovich a long time ago. Although he will not make the other party obedient in everything, he should inform his superiors about the latest situation of Alexei and Wallachia. Which spies are more difficult to deal with, and tipping off key investigations about Alexei is no problem.

And this time Oreste has been here for so long, Adrian Bogdanovich didn't respond, if it wasn't for the investigation of the Wallachian Railway Company that Li Xiao attaches the most importance to, there really wouldn't be any So easy to expose.

Therefore, Li Xiao couldn't help suspecting that either the high-level executives of the third film or Nicholas I had doubts about Bucharest and deliberately bypassed Adrian Bogdanovich to send spies. Or the superiors specifically greeted Adrian Bogdanovich and ordered him not to reveal the existence of Oreste.

But no matter which possibility is, this is undoubtedly very dangerous. This shows that Bucharest or Alexei has been targeted, and someone is preparing to make trouble!

"Continue to follow up and observe, and be more careful." Li Xiao didn't have a good countermeasure for a while, so he could only order Anton to continue to observe, but at the same time he urged: "Survey that Ulyanov as well." , see what's wrong with him!"

After explaining to Anton, Li Xiao went directly to find Alexei. For such a major issue, he must first communicate with Alexei. In addition, he also had to consult the other party to see if he heard any rumors. After all, if the superiors really sent spies to investigate them, it would be impossible for them to have no clues before.

"The secret agent of the third part?"

Alexey was also a little surprised, and he knew what it meant, but during this period of time, most of his energy was focused on Fontana's imminent delivery. He was both excited and nervous about becoming a father for the first time, and his mind There is really no room for other things.

"Do you want to clean up those hands, maybe His Majesty or someone else is eyeing us!"

Alexei's judgment is actually similar to Li Xiao's,

It's just that he didn't feel the need to continue to observe, so he quickly wiped his butt clean first, so as not to leave any clues.

But Li Xiao disagreed: "The situation is still unclear now, and it's better to stay still than to move. We can't mess up before they find out something, or let them act on the wind, and then we will be in a cocoon!"

Alexei pondered for a long time, the news caught him off guard, and he had to spend some more time to sort out his thoughts.

"You're right, we must remain calm! It took us a lot of effort to create the current great situation, and we can't mess ourselves up just because of a spy!"

After a short pause, he asked again: "Do you want to talk to Duke Alexander or Duke Mikhail and ask them about the situation?"

Li Xiao sighed and said, "You can ask, but it doesn't make much sense. Those two old foxes are not completely reliable, and we don't agree with us on some key issues... Logically speaking, it is impossible for them to have no problems with such a big matter." Hearing it, I suspect that they are deliberately pretending to be deaf and dumb!"

This is not the first time that Li Xiao has commented on Duke Alexander and Duke Mikhail in this way. The last time Leonid applied for a transfer, and his superiors sent Count Vladimir to take up the post, such a huge change is impossible for the two of them. No wind was heard. But they just kept silent, waiting for him and Alexei to fall into a passive state.

From that time on, Li Xiao knew that Duke Alexander and Duke Mikhail were unreliable, or that his and Alexei's growth had greatly exceeded their expectations, making them feel a little out of control, so this Only then deliberately pretended to be deaf and dumb to teach them a lesson, that is, to tell them who is the boss.

Li Xiao can understand this approach, but he is still quite upset, because it means that those two always want to control him and Alexei, no matter how good they are, they can only be their little brothers.

To be honest, this is what makes people feel particularly uncomfortable in Russia. The interest groups of these veteran nobles monopolize everything, and no one can surpass their interests. Even if you are the pillar of the country, you have to honestly work for them and be controlled by them.

Alexey also understood Li Xiao's thoughts, and he was also unhappy, but he advocated restraint for the time being, because they really weren't strong enough to challenge those old guys.

He sighed: "Sometimes I really hope that there will be a storm that directly destroys everything in Russia, shuffling everything, so that new seeds can flourish..."

If you think about it, even people like Alexei feel this way, how suffocating Russian folks are. Li Xiao knew that Russia would indeed usher in an unprecedented storm in 50 or 60 years, destroying the political order of this country for a thousand years, and even almost subverting the rules of the game in this world.

That storm was not an ordinary violent one, and Li Xiao wondered if Alexei would have hoped for it to come if he really experienced that storm.

It's a bit far away, Li Xiao continued to discuss with Alexei: "Although the current situation is not clear and there is no need to be so nervous, some preparations are still necessary. You'd better communicate with the garrison. Every year Give them so much money, the money is not for nothing!"

Alexei hummed: "I will talk to the garrison and Grand Duke Kogalniceanu, but it's hard to say whether Count Vladimir will buy it, that guy doesn't look like a good bird , I doubt he will take the opportunity to do something!"

Li Xiao suddenly had a headache, because the status of Count Vladimir made him unable to use many methods. If he did something bad with sincerity, it would be really difficult to deal with it!
