Vol 3 Chapter 1438: pink eye
【Struggle in Tsarist Russia】【】
St. Petersburg has not been so lively for a long time. The last time there were so many melons to eat dates back to more than thirty years ago when Alexander I had his braids.
Compared with the time when rumors spread and war broke out, the melons now are obviously more delicious, at least they don't taste dangerous at all.
"I never expected that Prince Baryatinsky would be such a person. I thought he was a gentleman!"

There are a few gentleman in the officialdom. You are joking! I am not surprised at all by what he did. The world is as black as crows!""That's right, that's right, if you had the opportunity like him, I think you would be even darker than him!""You are not surprised at all, Baryakins Duke Ji is a popular person around His Majesty. Who would dare to cause trouble with him? I tell you, the water here is deep! Maybe there is something else going on!" "What's the matter? It's probably because some people are jealous of his position. It was the same with Count Speransky back then. When he wasn't on stage, many people liked him and supported him, but what happened after he came to stage? Thousands of people rode on him and tens of thousands of people stepped on him. Being made to feel like a human being inside and out is the same, who can see the good of others!" "It's not that simple! Don't you think there are too many things going on recently? First something happened to Grand Duke Constantine, and then something happened to Duke Baryatinsky too. How could such a coincidence happen?" "That's right, you think, could it be the reformists? The conservatives and the conservatives are at each other's throats. The conservatives attacked Grand Duke Constantine, and the reformers counterattacked and disgraced Prince Baryatinsky."In the end, this possibility was unanimously pursued, and it is unknown. People who love the truth unanimously believe that this is the truth of the matter and are very worried about it! I am afraid that the reformists and conservatives will get more and more angry and end up causing a Decembrist farce. "Are they blind? What is this analysis about? Even conservatives attack Grand Duke Constantine. Can they not see that it is the conservatives who support Grand Duke Constantine? What!”Boris vomited while drinking: "Even I can see things, but the high-ranking nobles of St. Petersburg can't? It seems that they are just like this!" Li Xiao, Vishniak and Alexei looked at each other and said nothing. Do the nobles of St. Petersburg really not understand? I don’t think so. I’m afraid many people are pretending not to understand on purpose. Because little people who are too smart usually don't end well. If you want to live a long time, you have to pretend to be stupid! As for Boris, he really doesn’t understand. He is a good hand in leading troops to fight and charge into battle, but he really doesn’t understand things in the officialdom. He felt that he was better than the nobles of St. Petersburg simply because he stood on the shoulders of Li Xiao and others. Li Xiao and others had explained the matter clearly. If he didn't understand, he would be so confused! But one good thing about Boris is that he only ridicules and mocks the high-ranking aristocrats of St. Petersburg. In fact, he is like a mirror in his heart. Until he weighs a few pounds, he will not really To the point where they think they are smarter than them. Li Xiao and the others also know this. Since Boris is self-aware, why should they spoil his interest? Let him enjoy his oral pleasure!

After Boris had finished his addiction, Alexey asked: "What will His Majesty and Grand Constantine do next?"
Vishniak and Boris looked at Li Xiao together, and they also wanted to know what would happen next.
Li Xiao did not sell out: "Your Majesty will never give up on Baryatinsky, and will definitely try every means to clear his name. The battle around Baryatinsky will continue, but to be honest, that is not the point. The point is still the St. Petersburg Superior Court. When will the trial be held and when will the verdict be pronounced!”

Everyone nodded together. In the final analysis, making Baryatinsky look bad was just a cover-up. The key was still a matter of time. If the reformists can seize the time to implement various reform policies in Ukraine, then it won't matter even if they lose the battle with the higher court in the end. Because it is impossible to win a lawsuit in a superior court. No judge would have the courage to slap Alexander II in the face at this moment. The consequences would be too serious! The problem is how to implement the Ukrainian reform pilot quickly. Although Alexander II has already made a decree, he also selected Prince Mikhail Gorchakov as the new governor of Ukraine. But everyone can see that his words are insincere and perfunctory. He neither gives money nor details how to pilot the reform. The appointed governor has been sitting in St. Petersburg recuperating. There is nothing to reform. What does it look like? "Didn't Count Nikolay Milyutin think of ways to promote Ukraine?" Vishnyak asked. Li Xiao sighed and said: "Of course he is going all out, but you should know those bureaucrats. They have always had opinions on reform, and now the situation is anxious. How can they be old at this time? To promote this matter honestly, every one of them is perfunctory and delayed, just waiting for the conclusion of Grand Duke Constantine's case!"Alexey also added: "I fully understand this. , as soon as I arrived at the Ministry of Justice, I discovered that the guys from the Department of Law were secretly gossiping and had already linked up. They would not care about any legal provisions related to reform in the near future, and they would delay it as long as they could."Wei Wei Shinyak and Boris looked at Li Xiao together, wanting to ask what was obvious. Li Xiao said: "Count Nikolai Milyutin went to negotiate with Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com but it was of little use. Those bureaucrats may not be able to do things well, but using official language to waste time is They are a good hand, and they understand the provisions clearly one by one, so that you can't catch their mistakes!" Boris suddenly became anxious: "Then what should we do, just let them be arrogant?" Li Xiao smiled and said: "Of course it's impossible, that's why Alexey joined the Ministry of Justice! What do you think he was asked to do?"Bao Reese blurted out: "I thought I was really promoting Alyosha, but it turned out that he was asked to do hard work! This is too cheating!"Alexey touched his nose, He also looked helpless, which made Boris sympathize with him even more. But Boris didn't think of Li Xiao, but he didn't think it was a hard job: "Alyosha's job is indeed difficult, but only by doing difficult jobs can you show your ability! This It’s a good opportunity. If Alyosha can solve the problem of those bureaucrats and push for the implementation of the reform bill, it will be a great achievement. Then who will dare to say that he can’t do things with his words?”Bao Reese blinked and then came back to his senses: "But it's not easy to do, isn't it?"

Li Xiao snorted: "If you do well, it won't be our turn! Do you think the reformist upper class is much better than the conservative old guys? They are not just as stubborn. If they don't show results, do you think they will give it to them?" How much support do we have?”
