Struggle in Russia

Chapter 259 Interrogation (Part 1)

Is there any way for Bestuzhevliumin to save the situation? Objectively speaking, no!

Because the cover that Shuvalov gave him this time is too strong, and the most important thing is that the Zhenya family ran away without a trace. If according to Shuvalov's plan, the Zhenya brothers and sisters did not run away If not, he may be a little less responsible.

But now, the Zhenia brothers and sisters have run away, and Fioning is at large again, so naturally he can only bear the blame for it all.

To be honest, this scapegoat made him dizzy, because before receiving the news, he was planning to frame Kornilov and Naximov, and everything was ready and he owed it to the wind.

So when the Kiev incident happened, he was not mentally prepared at all. When he heard the people sent by Simonov to explain the situation, his face was darker than the bottom of the pot. He knew very well that if he didn't go back quickly to clean up the situation, his throne as the boss of Kiev's third department would be handed over, and he might even be exiled.

So he didn't care about Kornilov and Nasimov anymore, and after explaining the situation to Grand Duke Constantine, he hurried back.

This pass was rushed, and by the time he got back to Kiev, it was already too late. As soon as he arrived at the office of the third department in Kiev, he was put under control. Peter Barclay personally issued an arrest warrant, and he was thrown into a cell without giving him a chance to argue and resist.

Then, in the next day, Peter Barclay personally presided over the first round of interrogation of him, planning to convict this guy before Nicholas I's instructions arrived in Kiev.

"Fyodor Petrovich Bestuzhevliumin. Tell me in detail about your relationship with the Zhenia brothers and sisters, especially with Zhenia."

Bestuzhevliumin took a look at Peter Barclay, who was sitting upright at the top. He actually didn't think highly of this guy before, thinking that this guy has no skills, and he has no achievements as a governor. Anyway, he doesn't buy much. This is the governor's account, and it is here that Peter Buckland dare not do anything to him, which makes him despise this person even more.

But now, this bastard is interrogating him pretending to be a dog, which makes Bestuzhev stay very angry. He snorted and sneered, "I don't know these two people, so I have nothing to do with them."

"If you don't know each other, you don't know each other!"

Peter Barclay seemed very satisfied with Bestuzhev's answer, and taunted directly: "You deny it so simply! It's just that you can't deny it. Now there are evidences showing that you and this woman and his The relationship between the brothers is ambiguous, especially the relationship with this woman is very improper! I have reason to suspect that you let Fioning go on purpose, because you are the accomplice of the rebellious party!"

Bestuzhevliumin was taken aback. When he returned to Kiev, he thought that the situation would be very bad, but he thought it was a big crime. It was a charge of dereliction of duty or dereliction of duty. The biggest, if Nicholas I is particularly angry, it is possible to increase the intensity of the departure, and it is also possible to exile him to Siberia to take care of the Decembrists. x

But he just didn't expect that Peter Barclay would accuse him as soon as he came up, and even said that he was an accomplice of the traitor party! Nima, this is planning to punish him to death!

Bestuzhevliumin knew Nicholas I's temper too well,

What he hated the most was the Revolutionary Party, and what he hated the most were the nobles who were allied with the Revolutionary Party, especially the high-ranking nobles. If a nobleman and high-ranking official of his level is convicted of this crime, he will have to peel off his skin if he is not dead.

Naturally, Bestuzhevliumin could not admit that it was wrong. He immediately jumped up and shouted indignantly: "Nonsense, this is a complete frame! It is slander!"

Peter Barclay was very calm. He said with a sneer: "Slandering and framing, then please explain to me what happened to Fioning's release warrant! It has your own signature on it, and the corresponding seal has been verified, and all of them are It was yours, in other words, it was issued by you, so please tell me, if you are not a traitor, why did you release the prisoner Fionin!"

If there is regret medicine to take, then Bestuzhevliumin will definitely eat a basket. He feels that he is really obsessed, and he should never have left a bunch of stamped and signed blank warrants to Zeni. Damn it, this damned female cousin has given him a hard time.

It's just that he knew what was going on in his heart, but he definitely couldn't admit it. He insisted: "Those were forged by the traitor party. I have never issued such a thing, and some time ago, I left Kiev It’s impossible to issue any warrants when you’re out on business, these must have been forged by traitors!”

"Forged"

Peter Barclay was still smiling, as if he knew that Bestuzhevliumin would make such an excuse, and he said unhurriedly:

"I don't care whether this warrant is forged or not, because of course there will be an imperial envoy sent by His Majesty to distinguish the authenticity, but the private relationship between you and Zhenia cannot be faked, right now, at least dozens of nobles have testified that you have a bad relationship with this woman. I don’t know, there are even testimonies that you are colluding to use public assets for private use, and use your power to amass money wantonly, these can’t be faked!”

Bestuzhev Liuming wanted to scold his mother in his heart. He thought that Simonov was a waste. How important it is not to talk nonsense!

Bestuzhevliu Ming wronged Simonov this time, not because he didn't know the importance of shutting up those people, but because he simply couldn't do it. Because Peter Barclay was arrested by Simon Love the day after he took over Kiev's third department, and he was directly under his control.

As a result, the people Bestuzhev left behind were a group of dragons without a leader, and they turned into a group of mobs. Under Shuvalov's instructions, they were quickly dealt with by Peter Barclay one by one. 0

Don't let them talk about helping Bestuzhev to clean up his ass. At this moment, many of them have turned their backs and become tainted witnesses, and are helping Shuvalov and Peter Barclay to clean up Bestuzhev!

But Bestuzhevliumin still didn't intend to catch him without a fight. He still insisted: "These witnesses are all lying. I repeat, I don't know any Zhenya, and I have nothing to do with this woman! I don't know them. Why do you want to frame me, anyway, I am innocent!" div
