Struggle in Russia - Chapter 10 Rostovtsev (on)

骁 Li Xiao's resentment against the brothers Alexander and Constantine Li Xiao didn't know it. After tasting the dishes at the ball and eating his stomach, he patted his **** and walked away. Now he just wanted to go home and have a good night's sleep, tormented him all night, no matter what Nicholas I was, no matter what his conspiracy was to take revenge, the sky fell down, and then he said, now sleep first.

骁 Li Xiao ’s residence in St. Petersburg is located near the hay market. It belongs to the slums of St. Petersburg. The land price is naturally cheap and the space is not large. It is a small two-story building. This small building originally belonged to one of his father's serf servants. After Nicholas I took over all of his father's property, he generously allocated him this old, dilapidated and shabby building to live in, giving him a place to live. A place barely sheltered from the wind and rain.

Li Xiaoli ’s meager income from Nicholas I was naturally incapable of repairing the family, and he could not afford the hordes of servants. Only one old servant followed him, so after ten years, the original houses were in dilapidated condition. It becomes even more unsightly, anyway, it is not like the mansion of the emperor's nephew, the mansion of the grand duke of the empire, and it is said that it is a ghost house.

骁 When Li Xiao arrived home, the room was quiet. The old servant Igor did not come to meet him as soon as possible, which made him a little strange. Because this is not in line with the personality of the old man, as the only person in St. Petersburg who is good to Li Xiao, no matter what the situation is, even the old man with a knife in the sky will wait for him to come home and give him the hot water and delicious meals. No old man will ever rest early.

Where is the old man today?

"Daddy? Daddy?"

骁 Li Xiao suddenly jumped in his heart, after all, the old man was older, and his body was not as good as it was in these years. He was really worried that the old man suddenly went away with sudden illness. He rushed into the room in a panic and began to search for the old man, afraid to see the scene that broke his heart.

However, the terrible scene did not appear. Li Xiao rushed into the living room and saw the old man standing there well, as if he was receiving guests. It's just that the candles in the living room are swaying, and the guests can't be seen at all. Who is this?

Li Xiao was still weird. Igor heard the movement behind him and turned around to welcome him: "Master, you are back? Sorry, I should go to meet you. But I suddenly came to the VIP, I am really sorry. Have you had dinner? ? "

Seeing that Igor was okay, Li Xiao immediately relieved, and quickly replied: "Daddy, don't be busy, I've eaten outside. By the way, who's here?"

"His Excellency, please take the liberty to come to visit, please forgive me for the abruptness."

I did n’t wait for Igor to make an introduction. The unscrupulous guest stood up from the sofa and introduced himself: "I am Count Jakov Rostovtsev."

This self-introduction is very abrupt, because Li Xiao could not find any impression of Rostovtsev in the memory of his predecessor. The predecessor did not know the Count at all. Then the Count suddenly did not invite him late at night. what?

"Sorry," Li Xiao replied with vigilance, "please forgive my ignorance, His Excellency, it seems that we don't know each other?"

伯 The count, who could not see clearly, replied calmly: "Yes, Your Excellency. We really don't know."

骁 Li Xiao asked strangely, "What advice would you give us this time?"

The earl looked at the old Igor, who immediately bowed slightly and then pleaded guilty to Li Xiao, then immediately left the living room. This surprised Li Xiao very much. Obviously his old servant knew or knew the earl very well, otherwise he would not leave so neatly, which made him even more curious about the earl and his purpose!

神秘 The mysterious Count Rostovtsev did not immediately answer Li Xiao's question, but walked leisurely in the living room, as if it were his home. As he walked, he slowly commented, "It's a unique decoration style, isn't it?"

Li Xiao looked at the mottled walls, the rickety sofa, the torn tea set, and the shabby carpet, and replied angrily: "It is not unique at all. The area around the Haymarket, or the residence of ordinary people in St. Petersburg. It's this style, it's just poor! "

There was a smile on Count Rostovsev's face obscured by shadows and stand-up collars, but the flash of light was unreal. He said calmly, "But for an empire's granddaughter, this environment is ... well, impressed?"

骁 Li Xiao is impatient, and the always embarrassing non-enterprise in front of him is simply a waste of time. Tomorrow he will have to go to the gate of the Hermitage to post a whistle and drink the northwest wind. He will also have to deal with the revenge of Lao Yin for Nicholas I ’s father and son.

"Are you here to ridicule me for a special trip? If so, then your purpose has been achieved, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Please forgive me for being busy and tired today, so I will not leave you sedentary!"

He said that Li Xiaochao had a gesture of asking in front of the door, which meant that he had delivered tea.

But Count Rostovsev had no intention of leaving. He walked back to the rickety sofa and sat down calmly, saying, "Young man, don't be so anxious. Chat with me It's only good for you, not bad. "

骁 Li Xiao pouted his lips and said, "Is it, forgive me for my inexperience, I didn't see the so-called benefits."

Count Rostovtsev is still a light-hearted man, and he doesn't care about someone's sarcasm. He calmly replied, "You will know the benefits. But this is not the point, because The help I give you is also what you deserve. I always give rewards to young people who perform well. "

Li Xiao became more and more puzzled by the second monk. He heard the Count Rostovsev's meaning has given him a reward, which is the so-called benefit, but he didn't realize it at all. Is this guy's mystery or something meaningful? ?

骁 Li Xiao was a little hesitant. The Earl made him feel very tricky. After thinking for a while, he decided not to speak first and see what the other party wanted to do first.

"Knowing how to keep your mouth in your mouth is a good thing, and you must lose your words and scourge out of your mouth. Only a reckless husband can speak for a moment. The true wise man must be careful to make a decision before moving. In this regard, you have to learn more ! "

骁 The tone of this lesson made Li Xiao a little upset, but it seemed to mean something. Is this to say that he and his son Nicola I were too impulsive tonight?

看来 "It seems that you have realized the problem. This is good, indicating that your thinking is still agile, not a fool who does not know how to die before the calamity is imminent."
