Struggle in Russia

Shuvanov's nose was almost crooked. He thought that as long as he talked about Uvarov, Porfiry would give in.

I really didn't expect that Porfiry would directly announce that he had turned his back on him. According to his intentions, let alone help himself, he was not even willing to give more money.

This must be unacceptable to Shuvanov. Before Porfiry walked out the door, he stopped him again: "Slow down!"

Following his soft snort, Porfiry stopped in his tracks, but his expression was not good-looking.

"What else do you want!"

Shuvanov pretended to be calm and said: "I don't want to do anything, just to remind you not to be impulsive!"

"Impulse?" Porfiry smiled contemptuously, "If I just want to be impulsive!"

Shuvanov was speechless for a while. Indeed, if Porfiry insisted on being rude, he really had nothing to do. After all, he belongs to the Duke of Aldorf, so he has no confidence in him. At least he couldn't use Uvarov's name to scare the opponent.

But seeing Porfiry's attitude, he was really upset to the extreme, as if someone had slapped him on the face.

Shuvanov couldn't swallow his breath, so he could only force his face and said, "Then I can only tell St. Petersburg directly that it was your non-cooperation that caused my mission to fail!"

Who would have thought that Porfiry just smiled and said, "Then you can try it and see if anyone in St. Petersburg comes back to hold me accountable... Use St. Petersburg to suppress me? Colonel, I think you are really confused , do you think the third book was really opened by your family or Count Uvarov’s family?"

This was the first time that Porfiry mentioned Uvarov's name in front of Shuvanov, but the effect was very ideal, because it was a silent and severe warning, and the effect was quite impressive. !

Because Shuvanov's face changed immediately, because the other party had clearly said that it would be useless even if Count Uvarov himself came, and he was still not a bird. In this case, let alone a young man under Uvarov's subordinates like him!

Shuvanov knew very well that if Porfiry was allowed to leave like this, then today's meeting would only be counterproductive, so he stopped the other party again: "I warn you for the last time, don't be uncomfortable with yourself. , Interfering with my work is tantamount to asking for trouble with Count Uvarov! Do you really think that with the support of Duke Aldorf, you can be lawless!"

Porfiry snorted contemptuously: "You are the one who is uncomfortable and lawless. You'd better not cause trouble for your master. The Duke of Aldorf is not the enemy of the earl yet.

If you insist on forcing the Duke to be your enemy, I don't think the Duke will be afraid! "

After finishing speaking, Porfiry didn't bother to talk to Shuvanov anymore, and just walked away. This made Shuvanov very angry, but he was so angry that he really didn't dare to continue to stop Porfiry Yes, after all, they have already made it clear that if they refuse to give up, they will force the Duke of Aldorf to be an enemy. Even if he borrowed Shuvanov's courage, he wouldn't dare to find an opponent for Uvarov, right?

"Colonel, what should we do next?"

Shuvanov didn't know what to do. Porfiry's side fell out, and he must be asking for money from now on. It is impossible to expect to open the situation from his side!

Shuvanov sighed and said, "We can only find a solution from the Wallachians!"

For Shuvanov, Porfiry couldn't be frightened, so he had to find someone who was good at frightening him. But now he can't scare anyone except Wallachia's native wood turtles, so he can only continue to slaughter fat sheep.

"Go to contact Barbu Shtilbey and Grigory Alexander Gika V, and tell them that I have important matters to discuss with them!"

According to Shuvanov, he was going to spend a large sum of money from these two, and then find a way to get them to provide a batch of cannon fodder, so that he could continue to make trouble with Alexei.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that his every move was under Li Xiao's surveillance, and his actions immediately attracted Li Xiao's attention. Then Alexei naturally knew.

"What does this guy want to do again?"

"It's definitely not a good thing!" Fontana said very directly, "I don't think this guy can continue to get in the way!"

In fact, neither Alexei nor Li Xiao like to have such a stumbling block in the way of Shuvanov to make trouble. But how to deal with him is more difficult.

It's not that he is concerned about Uvarov behind him, but this guy is nominally the assistant assigned to Alexei by the third department. If something happens to him, Alexei will also be jointly and severally responsible. In other words, it is easy to solve him, but the future troubles are not easy to say.

Li Xiao thought for a while and said, "It's easy to deal with him. If you wanted to get rid of him a few times ago, just tell the Wallachians and you'll be done... But if you do this in China, you'll have to make excuses for Alexei... This guy is really annoying!"

Alexei smiled wryly when he heard that, but Fontana muttered, "It would be great if I could get this guy away!"

"Get away?"

Li Xiao's eyes suddenly brightened. Shuvanov's stay in Bucharest was indeed a time bomb. But what if he could get it away?

Alexei sighed: "Improbable! This guy is clearly here to trouble me, why is he willing to leave!"

Li Xiao smiled and said, "It's not certain, it's his business if he refuses to leave. But can you order him to leave!"

"Order him to go?" Alexei was stunned, and asked, "How to order?"

"Find a reasonable excuse!" Li Xiao stood up, walked back and forth twice, and said with a smile, "For example, let him leave Bucharest to deal with some matters that seem important but are actually useless!"

Alexei scratched his head and said, "That's fine, but what if he refuses?"

Li Xiao waved his hand and said, "That means he disobeyed orders, and you have a good excuse to deal with him!"

Alexei was stunned. This was the first time he had seen such a shameless method. Although he always felt that it was a bit disgraceful to do so, he had to admit that this was the only way to deal with a guy like Shuvanov. .

Fontana also agrees with this, but she thinks a little more than Alexei, she asked: "His Royal Highness, if Shuvanov accepts the order in name but actually leaves Bucharest, or Pretending to leave Bucharest and come back halfway? Wouldn't that be troublesome!"

Li Xiao smiled and said: "If he dares to do this, then he can be dealt with in a fair manner, disobedience is enough for him... As for your concern, I believe that Anton, who is closely monitoring him, will solve it. "
