Tsarist Russia: Please Call Me Your Majesty The Tsar

Chapter 9 Stop Grand Duke Mikhail (Second Update, Please Collect It!)

"The Ministry of the Interior will go all out to track down the real culprit who assassinated His Majesty the Tsar. We will not be able to let go of the mastermind behind the scenes no matter what!" Prime Minister Previ ordered.

"Yes, Your Excellency!" replied Stolypin, Minister of the Interior.

However, he knew very well that this was just talk.

Even if there is really a mastermind behind the scenes, I'm afraid it will never be caught in a lifetime.

"Gentlemen, the most important thing now is the candidate for the new tsar after His Majesty's death. According to the law of succession to the throne, the first successor is Grand Duke Mikhail." Prime Minister Previ continued.

"According to the law of succession to the throne, Grand Duke Mikhail is indeed the first candidate for the new tsar!" Pobie Donoschaev, director of the Orthodox Church Affairs Administration, said immediately.

Although Grand Duke Mikhail is in the southern region, there are also his people in the cabinet.

Podonos Chaf had a very good personal relationship with Alexander III, and his relationship with Grand Duke Mikhail also remained very good. At this time, of course I have to speak for him.

"If His Majesty the Tsar has no heirs, His Excellency the Grand Duke Mikhail will inherit the throne. This is no problem. But His Majesty the Tsar already has the Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna. If it is customary, Her Excellency the Grand Duchess That's the number one choice!" said Chancellor of the Exchequer Sergei Witte.

Sergey Witte was also a close friend of Nicholas II, and he knew very well that Nicholas II hated Grand Duke Mikhail very much.

He even secretly suspected that Nicholas II had been assassinated, and Grand Duke Mikhail was probably inseparable from it. Maybe, all this was planned by Grand Duke Mikhail.

It's just that he has no evidence, and he knows that such things cannot be said casually.

However, he could not just watch Grand Duke Mikhail inherit the throne and become the new tsar. In that case, there would be nothing to do with Grand Duke Mikhail.

In addition, Grand Duke Mikhail will definitely not let him go.

Sergey Witt is a well-known corrupt official in the Tsarist Russian Empire. Since he took charge of the financial power of the Tsarist Russian Empire, he does not know how much money he has made.

"Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna should indeed have the right to inherit. But she is only half a year old now, and His Majesty the Tsar has not announced that she will change the right of inheritance." Foreign Minister Izvorsky said.

For the successor to the throne, the cabinet of the Tsarist Russian Empire and the top military officials had serious disagreements.

Some people think that Grand Duke Mikhail should be announced as the new tsar's successor in accordance with the law of succession to the throne.

But there are also people who support Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna, even though she is only half a year old now, she can definitely inherit the throne and become the empress of the Russian Empire.

After all, in the history of the Tsarist Russian Empire, it is not that there have been female czars.

In this regard, the high-level and nationalities of the Tsarist Russian Empire did not object to having a woman as the tsar.

"Your Excellency the Grand Duchess is only half a year old, and she has no ability to govern the country at all. The country is in a difficult situation and there are many troubles. If the Grand Duchess is allowed to inherit the throne, how will you govern the country?" asked rhetorically.

"Although your Excellency the Grand Duchess is young, she will grow up one day. Before she grows up, the cabinet can take on the responsibility of governing the country. I will fully support him!" Grand Duke Nicholas said.

Grand Duke Nicholas is very clear, unless Grand Duke Mikhail is killed. Otherwise, he would have no chance of inheriting the throne at all. Therefore, he strongly supported the succession of the throne by the Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna.

In this way, at least until the Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna came of age, he would be in power.

Prime Minister Previ couldn't help but frowned. If this is the case, it would be a very good result. His power as the prime minister of the cabinet can also be further expanded.

However, he also knew that this might cause great turmoil in the Tsarist Russian Empire. Especially Grand Duke Mikhail would definitely not accept it.

If Grand Duke Mikhail is just an ordinary member of the royal family, so be it.

But Grand Duke Mikhail is a powerful local prince!

If one is not good, the Tsarist Russian Empire is very likely to fall into civil war.

"If we support Her Excellency the Grand Duchess, what if Grand Duke Mikhail objects?" Prime Minister Previ asked.

"He has no right to object at all. If he refuses to recognize the inheritance of Your Excellency the Grand Duchess, it will be treason. The army will not let it go!" Grand Duke Nicholas said directly.

Even Grand Duke Nicholas wished that Grand Duke Mikhail would resist, so that he would be able to send troops to suppress it. At that time, Grand Duke Mikhail's right to inherit the throne will be directly deprived. So, isn't he one step closer to the throne?

After the short meeting, although the cabinet of the Tsarist Russian Empire did not reach a consensus. However, there are obviously fewer voices supporting Grand Duke Mikhail.

As for Grand Duke Mikhail, he soon learned of the news, which made him furious even more.
