Chapter 46

Why does Grand Duke Constantine value Viscount Prozolov more?

Is this really a problem?

As long as the IQ is online, you will know which is more important, birth or ability.

Grand Duke Constantine is not his extremely stubborn old man, who blindly thinks that his courtiers must be "rooted and upright" in order to be useful. For the Duke Constantine, who had been driven to a desperate situation, no matter how good his background was, he could not make up for his lack of ability. He would rather use a capable and humble serf than an incompetent noble waste.

So what did Grand Duke Constantine think about Viscount Prozolov's trip to Wallachia? Are you really planning to cooperate with Li Xiao and Alexei?

Of course there is cooperation, but Grand Duke Constantine sent Viscount Prozolov to Bucharest more to find out the truth. He hoped that Viscount Prozolov, a smart man, would help him to see what the situation in Wallachia was like, whether it was really as good and as promising as the report said, and by the way, see if Alexei There are really two brushes.

The intention of Grand Duke Constantine is to have a comprehensive understanding of Wallachia, to see how much Wallachia can bring him, and on the other hand, to see if he can pull Alexei on his chariot for himself. Serve.

Yes, after sitting on the bench in the Admiralty for so long, Grand Duke Konstantin finally came to his senses. He knew that it was impossible for a stubborn old man like Menshikov to support him sincerely. Gula I's face was just trying to make him happy.

Once they got to the place where they really wanted to stand in line, these people would run to Crown Prince Alexander and kneel and lick him in minutes, and they would not give him a bird at all. So expecting to rely on this gang of old stubborns to seize the throne is really delusional.

After observing Grand Duke Constantine for a long time, he found that only those reformists who are basically desperate for reality and dissatisfied with the current Russian system have hope of fighting for it. Because the diehards are closely united with Crown Prince Alexander, these people who hope for reform have no right to speak around Alexander, and they who have nothing to say and cannot display their talents and ambitions can only find another way, find someone who can show them Master of talent.

Grand Duke Constantine felt that he was the leader of the reformers, and he felt that only he could give the reformers a chance to display their talents. Although Alexey's actions in Wallachia were hidden, in the final analysis, he was carrying out reforms in disguise. , Naturally also a reformist.

Since everyone is a reformist, and Grand Duke Constantine feels good about himself, he feels that he can pull Alexei into his chariot to charge for himself.

"Count Speranski is a little wiser,

But he is still a talent, I believe he can see the situation clearly... As long as he is persuaded, we will have a lot to do in Wallachia and Moldavia! "

Of course, Grand Duke Constantine, who feels good about himself, is not so conceited that he thinks that as long as he stands in front of Alexei and waves his arms, he will bow down. He felt that he had to send a smart person like Viscount Prozolov to analyze the situation for Alexei, and after explaining it well, the other party would know how right it was to take refuge in him.

So the task of Viscount Prozolov is actually to lobby Alexei, so Melikov and Golitsyn didn't understand it very much. What is the so-called Grand Duke Andrei Konstantinovich doing? Don't you know that Grand Duke Constantine hates this cousin?

Viscount Prozolov didn't explain anything, because he knew a truth a long time ago, don't try to reason with idiots, because they don't understand at all, no matter how much and detailed you speak, you are just playing the piano with the cow.

So Viscount Prozolov didn't explain anything, completely ignored the doubts of those two people, and just did his own thing.

Such an attitude seemed too arrogant to Golitsyn and Melikov. They felt that Viscount Prozolov was really arrogant and domineering just because of the favor of Grand Duke Constantine.

"I want to see how long he can be arrogant! I just don't know what to say!"

Full of anger, Golitsyn fired angrily. He made no secret of his contempt and dissatisfaction with Viscount Prozolov, and cursed in the room: "I'm just an illegitimate child, I really think I'm someone, what? Stuff! Dude, we can't do this anymore, we're not going to get anything done if we keep letting him do it!"

Melikov looked at the aggrieved Golitsyn, but there was nothing in his heart, because he was completely different from Golitsyn. Although he didn't like Viscount Prozolov, he knew very well that this person was in the heart of Grand Duke Constantine. The status of the other party is bluntly said that the status of the other party is much higher than that of him and Golitsyn.

To put it bluntly, as long as Viscount Prozolov said a word, they would fall out of favor in front of Grand Duke Constantine. It is best not to offend such a ruthless character before he is fully sure.

But it is impossible for you to say that Melikov has no idea at all. When people go to high places, who doesn't want to climb up?

So his eyeballs rolled and he thought about it: "What you said is somewhat reasonable, why don't we ask His Royal Highness what he thinks first before making a decision!"

Golitsyn's expression changed immediately, and he gave Melikov a disdainful look, and said contemptuously, "How much time does it take to go back and forth, our time is precious, we can't waste it like this! Since you have no guts, Then I will do it myself!"

Speaking of which, this guy was about to roll up his sleeves and do it alone, but Melikov stopped him immediately: "Don't be angry! I'm just doing it safely! After all, before coming here, His Royal Highness also said that Paul Constant Dinovich is the main one, we can't make our own decisions!"

The more Melikov talked about Golitsyn, the angrier he became. He said angrily, "That's because His Highness was deceived by that illegitimate son. Look at what he did..."

Melikov laughed and said: "That's right, but you can easily be caught by him as an excuse if you do this. It really makes him pursue it. It is no good fruit for you in front of His Highness!"

Golitsyn was startled and hesitated. He was not afraid of Viscount Prozolov, but he was really afraid of Grand Duke Constantine!

And his expression made Melikov even more contemptuous in his heart, and he felt that this person was a waste even more, but Golitsyn was a waste, he just took advantage of this waste: "So, I think we have something The action must be hidden, otherwise Paul Konstantinovich will find out, even if he doesn't blame us, he will come to take credit for it!"
