Struggle in Russia

Count Rostovtsev looked at Li Xiao with a smile. He knew that Li Xiao would make this request. This was so normal. He would also ask for it, otherwise nothing would be done sincerely.

"It will be arranged, don't worry!" Count Rostovtsev replied unhurriedly: "The most important thing for you now is to think about how to do things!"

Li Xiao curled his lips and said, "What do you want me to do?"

Count Rostovtsev smiled and said: "You don't need to do anything special. As long as you can make His Majesty unhappy, it's enough to pay attention to the trends in the third part!"

Li Xiao curled his lips again and said, "You think this is easy?"

"If it's not difficult, anyone can do it, why should I give you this chance?" Count Rostovtsev asked matter-of-factly.

Li Xiao became more and more speechless, but he had to admit that Count Rostovtsev's words made sense. If it were a job that even cats and dogs could do, this fat position would not be available at all. It was precisely because this job was difficult that he had the opportunity.

"Okay," Li Xiao sighed and said sadly, "You are always so reasonable, but you'd better arrange for my friends as soon as possible, otherwise I can't do anything!"

Count Rostovtsev smiled and agreed, but what Li Xiao didn't expect was that he would move so quickly. He agreed on the first day and immediately arranged for an old friend to come and help him.

"Vasily Matveyevich, why are you here? I'm so happy to see you!"

Li Xiao excitedly walked up and held Muravyov's hand. This upright military police colonel had helped him a lot back then. It was great to see such a politically reliable person in the third section of St. Petersburg.

"I heard that you were arranged to go to Moscow? Why did you come back suddenly?"

As expected, Muravyov was "liquidated" after helping Li Xiao and his gang, and was sent to Moscow to sit on the bench. It is said that he was severely marginalized.

"I don't know either!"

Muravyov was also a little confused. About half a month ago, he received a transfer order to return to the Third Department of St. Petersburg as an inspector. Compared with his position in Moscow, the inspector was like a shotgun replaced by a gun and a bicycle turned into a motorcycle.

This transfer order came so suddenly, and there was no recruitment at all, leaving Monk Zhang Er confused. After I returned to St. Petersburg and asked a few acquaintances, I had no clue at all, because no one knew who transferred him back.

Muravyov knew very well that this situation meant that there was only one possibility, and that was that the person who transferred him back had too much power and power beyond his network, and this made him even more uneasy, because he knew the world It's never pie in the sky.

Such a powerful big shot transferred him back without any demands or conditions. This only shows that what they want him to do is very big, so big that it will be very dangerous for him!

So before meeting Li Xiao, Muravyov had been very anxious, fearing that one day he would be suddenly called away by a servant of a big shot, and then be given a particularly painful and dangerous task.

"It's okay, just come back!" Li Xiao reassured with a smile, "Let's fine tune the third part of St. Petersburg together so that it can play its real role!"

Muravyov looked at Li Xiao. He did feel a little strange when he met Li Xiao as his superior. After all, before he was thrown to Moscow, Li Xiao was just a down-and-out little captain. In the blink of an eye, after not seeing him for a few years, he turned into a He became a military police major general, with a higher rank than him, and I heard that he also did a lot of work in Wallachia. It would be unrealistic to say that he didn't have any emotion at all.

However, the fact that his immediate boss was Li Xiao made Muravyov feel a little relieved. At least he had someone to turn to when the big shot behind the scenes was causing trouble. Even Li Xiao might not be able to withstand the thunder of the big shot behind the scenes. A blow, but at least you can put in a few nice words for him, right?

After listening to Muravyov's troubles, Li Xiao was secretly amused. He found that Count Rostovtsev was really a quickie. You see, he clearly had a lot of opportunities to show his favor. Muravyov told He told the truth, but he did nothing. He just transferred him over there and then ignored him.

Maybe the count really didn't care about this small favor, but it was more likely that he did it on purpose. After all, for anyone who suddenly catches a pie falling from the sky through bad luck, especially a pie thrown by a big shot like him, it will be a little bit confusing.

But this man can't do anything well as long as he floats, and Count Rostovtsev's purpose of transferring him is actually to let him do good things. Since telling the truth would have the opposite effect, it might be better not to tell him at all, and let Muravyov maintain such a cautious attitude!

In addition to Muravyov, about a week later, Vishnyak and Boris also returned to St. Petersburg. On the contrary, Alexey, who was most likely to return to St. Petersburg, is still in Bucharest to handle his final work before leaving. .

"Are you going to the Preobrazhensky Regiment?" When Li Xiao heard about Vishniak's appointment, he was shocked and said in surprise: "Or be the deputy commander? How is that possible!"

The Preobrazhensky regiment can be said to be truly the best regiment in the world. The leaders of this regiment are usually members of the royal family, such as Grand Duke Constantine and the former Alexander II.

Of course, this does not mean that all officers of this regiment must come from the royal family. Deputy regiment leaders will also be held concurrently by some meritorious ministers. It's just that Vishnyak is neither of these two. Although he has some merits, he is still far from outstanding merits, and it is even less likely that he has a biological father or a godfather to help him run a relationship. Generally, he has no relationship at all. Is it okay if you can’t get this position?

Could it be that Count Rostovtsev has exerted himself to such an extent that even the deputy commander of the best regiment in the world can give it away as casually as cabbage?

It can only be said that Li Xiao is overthinking. Count Rostovtsev does not have this ability. He did help Vishniak to transfer positions, but he did not go to the position of deputy commander of the Preobrazhensky Regiment at all. Make a fuss about it.

There was actually someone else who really helped Vishnyak get this position, but this person did it very covertly and had not contacted Vishnyak for the time being, which made both him and Li Xiao confused. water.

Compared with Vishniak's bad luck, Boris's job was much more regular. He was sent to the St. Petersburg Military Academy for further study. According to the plan, he had to study for a year and a half before successfully graduating before he could be reassigned to a job... …
