Chapter 702 004 Weird Exchange Operation

Alexander did not deliberately stop any party, but it was self-evident what the result was.

The Russian palace looks like this, not supporting it is already a force to make a fuss. If it is supported, it may be a big deal.

Barasov is now ready. Not only the documents he had given to Alexander before, he naturally had to continue working.

If a foreign spy occurs, his counter-espionage skills are not very good. His ability to catch raccoons with his own people is just as good as the Los Angeles police arresting raccoons.

Even when there was a big fire in Los Angeles, they could use batons to get the raccoons to trick them. OK, I did it.

In Russia, it is probably that Hara, I am a French spy.

Now, what he has to do is to make up for it, "improve" all the evidence chains that should be available, and then confirm it for Speransky, so that it will be easier to solve it.

Of course, neither of the minds of the two factions are here.

If this continues, something might really happen.

Alexander was also a little worried when he was in the palace.

He felt that it was not okay to not get the evidence, and it was not good if it was too much.

Seeing his condition, it looks like he is very difficult to make a decision every time he encounters trouble.

Seeing him like this, Louisa used to be fine. Now, when something big is going to happen, it is really not good to be in this state.

As a Tsar, it is indeed outrageous that he always has to wait until the situation happens before entering the state.

If he was an actor, it would be fine to act in a comedy.

In order to improve the link of evidence, Balasov really did everything he said before.

If you really care about it, the content inside is also very clear.

As a result, the whole month of February was not calm, and Speransky was under great pressure now.

His idea was to quit his job and leave, and go to the countryside to avoid his wife and daughter for a while, but Alexander didn't know what he wanted.

In this way, he is still going to be a sandbag here, and he is the only one who is the conservatives.

The four giants of the committee are not here now, and he happens to be the Secretary of State.

Public opinion is becoming increasingly unfavorable to him, but all rumors have been made, which has relaxed his mind.

Anyway, Russia has no death penalty, but it is really a rebellion. If you are a decent master, as long as you are not pretending to be Peter III, you will definitely not die. At most, it will be the ending of Mrs. Saltkova, who is locked in a cell, and in the end You can also have some stories with the prison guards.

It's really pretending to be Peter III. If you are far enough from Russia, you can't do anything to you.

There is such a thing in Montenegro, and the Queen even sent someone to engage in diplomatic relations with him at the beginning.

"You seem to be much easier now than you used to work."

"Adela, are you still not resting now?"

"I can't sleep. When I followed my brother, he was in the army when he was most anxious, but I didn't see it much. After I got married to you, I didn't go too far, just worked at home."

"If the emperor really makes a decision this time, we can go to the countryside for a while, which is much better than being in this depressing atmosphere."

"Go to Novgorod?"

"It's good to go elsewhere. Although I have many enemies, I have many friends. This time we can go to Yaroslavl. Although it's a little cold, the climate in summer is pretty good. If it feels cold in winter, you can ask the servant to keep the house. Burn warmer."

Speransky himself deserves his salary and treatment, but now the conservatives are pressing forward step by step, and he can't do many things, so he can only leave it alone.

"It's good to go to the countryside. You have to work 18 hours a day and don't have much spare time. Even when you're in bed, you have to pinch your time."

"Isn't that delayed it? That's fine if it was a girl?"

"Why do you want girls?"

"The Count is your righteous brother, but he also has one thing. He likes girls because he doesn't have to participate in this damn politics in depth. He can hide at home in the future and want to show up in public. He can appear as the hostess in the salon."

Of course, this is all about the life of aristocrats.

"The same to you?"

"We people in the game are different from those outside the game. Fortunately, you are a girl. If it weren't for your ability, it would be better for the family matters. We can live a happy life like this, as long as you don't dislike me. Just get older, just look older.”

"If I like a beautiful person, I will want a brother Mishka like you, your name is, but it looks a lot worse."

"Ah, I had thick hair when I was young, but not like Misha."

Solovyov's hair is too thick and beautiful, which is definitely different from a bald head like Speransky.

"That's a long way to go, but you are a very good person, unlike those who always have bad intentions on weekdays. In the past, a guard officer fell in love with me and followed me to the doorstep. You Guess what?”

"What can it do?"

"I poured him a bucket, so he never dared to get close to the Moika Canal again. The girls on our street thank me."

"You won't use it"

"If I had it before, it would have been considered as washing his clothes."

"Good guy, this is Vespasin."

That's right, the Roman emperor was eventually extended to "urinate" because he collected taxes on urine, which eventually made his name have some flavor in history.

Speransky was knowledgeable and read a lot, so he naturally knew what it meant.

If Adela hadn't been raised as a proper countess at home, and if he hadn't learned it himself in addition to the tutor, he would have been able to say this implicitly.

The relationship between the two of them is now very harmonious, and they are even ready to endure hardships together.

Such a day will come soon. After collecting enough evidence, Balashov finally came to the time to announce it, and he was even a little complacent.

Speransky was still the same. His daughter returned to the countryside when spring was about to begin. There were only the couple and a few servants here. The layout of the house was also very simple, but there were still a lot of documents and drafts in the office.

Balashov didn't find it strange to see this situation. Everyone knew that he worked like this and had been like this for years.

But at this time of "trial", he still had the leisure to work, which was indeed a bit strange.

The Minister of Police had confirmed with Alexander that he could give orders to Speransky, and that was how to deal with him.

But he found it boring to see that the couple had no extra reaction.

"Mikhail Mikhailovich, I think you should also know that because of some of your daily remarks, political propositions, and most importantly, your relationship with the French, you can be declared guilty of espionage. But the merciful emperor finally decided that you would not go to St. Petersburg and Moscow within three years, and the final result of the punishment was to reflect on yourself in your own country estate."

"That's it?"

"That's it, I won't read the emperor's edict, just read it yourself."

The edict that Speransky saw was indeed drafted by the Secretary of State. After getting along with these people for a long time, he was also clear about their handwriting.

There is also the signature of the Tsar himself below, which indeed proves that he is no longer the Secretary of State.

"Who will take over my position? Since this is a disciplinary decision, someone must take over, right?"

"Mr. Shishkov will take over your position, so you don't have to think too much."

"Well, I can settle my wife there first. She is still able to move around easily now, but it will be different in a few months."

Balashov was asking for trouble by doing this. After announcing the order, he still had to supervise its execution.

Speransky's official residence in Petersburg looked a bit shabby from his status as a second-class civil servant, but it was a good house for low-level nobles.

"Adela, we are only leaving here temporarily. What will happen in the future depends on how the emperor decides."

In fact, he was relieved at this time after putting down the burden. He also came to his senses and could analyze Alexander's behavioral characteristics as an outsider.

He would not make such a mistake of being caught by others in the future, but there was one thing to pay attention to, that is, the trust he received in front of Alexander. Although he might return to Petersburg in the future, this trust would not be the same as in the past few years.

Even when he looked at Balashov, the Minister of Police was very proud now, but how to deal with him later was also something to consider.

However, Speransky had no interest in this. It was a good thing to live in the countryside with his family and have a shelter before the storm.

However, he wanted to go to Yaroslavl, but he couldn't go there. In the edict, Alexander could be said to have given him preferential treatment and let him go directly to his home in Novgorod.

His manor was not far from the city, and it was even near the Novgorod railway station. If someone came to consult or he wanted to be reinstated, it would be very convenient.

Moreover, this punishment was only for him personally, and his wife and children were not within the scope of the punishment. If they wanted to visit relatives, they would not be affected.

It was just a little unfair to Adela. She had just been married for a short time, and she had suffered with him.

However, the other party didn't care too much. When he held her hand and touched his belly to show intimacy, she took the opportunity to hide in his arms.

"I think it's good for you to do this. You finally get rid of this burden."

But, there was still some joking tone.

"You are saying something."

"I wonder what Balashov will be like. I'm afraid it won't be a good result for him to return to the emperor."

"Why do you say that?"

"My sister-in-law went to the palace to see Her Majesty the Queen a few days ago. Her Majesty, who always doesn't care about anything, actually mentioned your matter."

"So what should we do?"

"Maybe she said something when His Majesty came, but it doesn't matter. We don't need to see what the final result is. It's just that if there is a letter inspection at that time, my brother and sister-in-law may not be able to tell us what happened in time."

That's right, when they were under house arrest, their correspondence had to be checked by the police department.

This is also Balashov's duty as the Minister of Police. He can also take this opportunity to take measures against some people.

But his happiness was just that. After the Speranskys set off, Alexander called Balashov.

"Your Majesty, are you summoning me again at this time?"

"Yes, I'll summon you now, Barasov, we've also let Speransky go to the countryside, and he should take a break. Sometimes the heavy work will affect a person's judgment, and may make it happen. He said some nonsense."

"With your Majesty's kindness, there is no mistake in dealing with it."

"But I envy him too. Solovyov, who was so beautiful at home, was actually obtained by him, a bald and old guy, and he married him as his wife."

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

Fortunately, everyone in Alexander raised girls, otherwise Barasov would have to learn bad habits sooner or later.

After all, it is always a bit strange that he is like this, but he can also hear something strange from Alexander's tone.

"Your wife is also very beautiful and a very wealthy heir. I think you can go and rest for a while. The work of the Police Minister is indeed very hard. You can go home and rest for two months and be a servant when you come back. General, some important things are also necessary to have a reliable person to do things to make people feel at ease.”

Alexander said this, although he still trusted Barasov in his attitude, his job as a general sounded like he was often accompanied by the Tsar.

But this position also sounds more like a favored position than a real power police minister seems so bluffy.

The Tsar himself still needed such a loyal traitor as Balasov, so he left him an appointment. If it were said, the treatment of the attendant general was better than that of the police minister. The emperor had good food and drink, and he Can still eat and drink with you

But this is also a statement to the bureaucrats involved in the reform. Although Kochubei is now a subordinate of Speransky, his identity is there, and he is also a relative of the former Prime Minister of the Empire. He is always in the civil service circle. Some weight.

He wrote a letter to Alexander while he was sick, and the latter also decided to balance the faction, so that Barasov could go to some positions that looked decent but had not very important.

In this way, the police minister became a minister who accompanied him for food and drink.

Barasov still has to bear it, after all, this good job may not have been replaced by others.

Of course, if some people who have served as attendants and generals seem to have no actual positions and military power, they are just something to decorate the storefront.

When Bagladion was in this position, he also served as the general on duty and the leader of the Guards. Peter Volkonskina was an aide that Alexander had to use at any time, even the few with less qualifications. All of them are leading soldiers with this title.

But if it were Barasov, he would probably be able to use his eloquent verbal characteristics to be a messenger. (End of this chapter)
