Struggle in Russia

Although Count Rostovtsev was more teasing and joking, he also made Li Xiao understand how important this information is.

He read the information carefully and found that Count Rostovtsev was not joking. It was indeed necessary to take notes on this information.

This thick document records every detail of Count Uvarov's life over the past twenty-five years, covering all the details of his daily life to how he treats people. As long as you read this information carefully, you can basically understand everything about him.

Li Xiao was a little shocked at how Count Rostovtsev collected this information. Could he be so capable of placing spies next to Count Uvarov?

The possibility of this was really low. Anyway, he couldn't figure out how that old yandere did it.

After reading this information, Li Xiao felt that Count Uvarov was a cautious, retributive and narrow-minded hypocrite.

On the surface, this person advocates a lifestyle in line with Orthodox Christian teachings, allowing people to restrain their desires and work hard. But secretly, he indulged in sex and had countless lovers, and he also made money everywhere and accumulated tens of millions of dollars.

But if you want to say that he is a duplicitous bastard, he does have two brushes, firmly controlling the hearts of the people, and raising the power and status of the Czar to unprecedented levels.

This is a complex hypocrite who cannot be distinguished by simply putting a label on him.

What's more, he doesn't lack the forbearance and scheming to achieve his goal by pretending to be a grandson.

No matter how you look at such a person, you find it very difficult to deal with him. If you can't beat him to death with a stick, you will face his endless revenge. The data of Count Rostovtsev records the case of him swallowing his anger for more than ten years and then crushing the ashes of his political opponents.

Li Xiao didn't want to follow in that one's footsteps.

The only thing that puzzled Li Xiao after reading so much information was that there was no clue about Count Uvarov. Ordinarily, it is impossible for a person like him to be without a handle, and with the intensity of Count Rostovtsev's attention to him, it is impossible to ignore his handle.

But the problem is that there is really nothing in this information that can be used to kill the earl with a stick.

At best, it's just a matter of private matters. As for taking advantage of one's position to accept bribes, these are the unspoken rules of this officialdom. If we really want to investigate this matter carefully, there will be very few clean people.

What's more, Count Uvarov took bribes very covertly and went around in many circles. As long as he was willing, he could throw out several scapegoats every minute. It was very difficult to get involved with him.

Li Xiao was very embarrassed for a while. If he only started from these things, it would be very difficult to completely defeat Count Uvarov.

But those who don’t start from these points have nothing to hold on to. Is this the self-cultivation of the officialdom veterans, who wrap up their own weaknesses so airtight that no one can take advantage of them?

"You want to deal with that old guy?"

Just when Li Xiao was having the biggest headache, Vishniak suddenly found him and made his purpose bluntly clear.

"I can help you!"

Well, Li Xiao was really embarrassed, because after all, Vishnyak was also the son of Count Uvarov, and it was a bit unreasonable to discuss how to kill him in front of his son.

Vishniak shrugged and said: "There is nothing unreasonable about this. I hate that bastard more than anyone else. If I could kill him, I would wake up laughing in my dreams!"

Seeing Vishnyak's resolute look, Li Xiao was very embarrassed. As the old saying goes, it's too distant to be close. Maybe now Vishnyak has all his opinions about Count Uvarov and wants to eat his flesh. .

But who can say what will happen in the future? After all, blood is thicker than water. What if Vishniak suddenly regrets it one day in the future?

What would he think of himself then? Maybe we can’t be good friends anymore, right?

"Wishka, I understand how you feel," Li Xiao said slowly: "But I think it's best for you not to get involved in this matter. This is not only for your own good, but also for our friendship."

Vishniak shook his head firmly and said: "No, please allow me to refuse. I know what you are worried about, but I want to say that this is completely unnecessary... Maybe he is my father physically, but he will always be my father." He failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father and left me and my mother with only endless pain. If these hatreds cannot be cleared up, I will never be able to let go of them in my life! I want to end him with my own hands and put an end to this complicated relationship! !”

Vishniak was rarely so resolute, and it was clear from his look that he would not be able to back down. This undoubtedly made Li Xiao feel a lot of pressure. After a while, he sighed helplessly: "My friend, history tells me that you will definitely do it." I regret it, so I dissuade you for the last time, don’t get involved in this matter, just pretend you don’t know anything, okay?”

The one who answered him was Vishniak shaking his head firmly. Seeing this, Li Xiao had to sigh again and reluctantly agreed.

"You have a problem now, don't you?" Vishnyak asked.

Li Xiao nodded and said: "Yes, I can't find anything against Count Uvarov. As for the things Count Rostovtsev gave me, I can't do anything to him..."

Vishniak sneered and said: "This doesn't surprise me at all. That hypocrite is best at covering up his ugly and evil side! He has done countless bad things and committed countless crimes. If he is not careful again, One point, wouldn’t it be over already?”

Li Xiao felt that Vishnyak was a bit exaggerated. Strictly speaking, Count Uvarov was already considered good compared to many nobles. There are countless nobles worse than him. Aren't those people good at hiding their crimes?

Obviously not. It can only be said that Count Uvarov does not have so many minor problems, but the big and fatal problems are difficult to grasp. This is where the difficulty lies.

Vishniak pinched his forehead: "You are right to say that. Small problems cannot defeat him, and big problems cannot be found, which is really difficult to solve."

Li Xiao pouted, as if he was still talking about it, but he didn't expect Vishnyak to suddenly say something else: "But just because he is impeccable doesn't mean that his sons are also impeccable!"

Li Xiao was stunned because these words were a bit too harsh. If you can't deal with the old one, just deal with the young ones. Isn't this too limitless?

But on the other hand, this is indeed a way out. Are Count Uvarov's children as difficult as his father?

Obviously not. Judging from the information Li Xiao knows, his two sons Nikolai and Vladimir are not fuel-efficient lamps. It can be said that they are not ordinary courageous regardless of meat and vegetables!
