Struggle in Russia - v3 Chapter 873 It is interesting

Vishniak and Boris quarreled happily, but everyone could see that the two were not really quarreling, but a leisure pastime.

St. Petersburg is not Bucharest. The pressure here is huge. If you want to quickly relieve the pressure, you have to find three or five friends to hang out and drink together, or you can only make fun of each other.

Obviously this year is not popular. After all, the nobles have to pretend to be coercive. They can only pretend to be a dog in a luxurious dance hall with a glass of red wine. On that occasion, Li Xiao and Boris were really not interested, so they could only chat with a few friends behind closed doors.

"Speaking of which. There is only one good thing about the Winter Palace, that is, there are many beautiful women!" Vishniak excitedly talked about his experience as a clerk in the Winter Palace.

It's just that everyone knows that the focus of this attention is always on women, and in his eyes, there is nothing other than the thin beauties of Huan Feiyan.

Boriston spat: "You kid knows how to look at women. The question is which woman in the Winter Palace will look at you directly. I advise you to save your energy and be a person and do something serious!"

Vishniak chuckled and said contemptuously: "You underestimate me too much, so what about the Winter Palace, I'm not bragging about you, as long as I hook my fingers, the Grand Duchess will embrace me!"

Naturally, Boris didn’t believe it. He admitted that Vishniak was a little handsome, but his handsomeness was nothing in St. Petersburg. It is blunt to say that in the aristocratic circle, those who are more handsome than him and have more status are the ones who are in the first class. Well, just because of his virtue, he even hooked up with the Grand Duchess, and said outrageously that the Grand Duchess would fall into her arms, how could he believe it if he wasn't a pig!

"Don't brag about it, and the Grand Duchess, I guess you are an old monster like Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna!"

Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna is also the daughter of Li Xiao's cheap aunt Paul I. The Grand Duchess married the Archduke of Saxe-Weimar-Eisenach and was 69 years old in 1855.

What's more important is that this Grand Duchess looks so ugly. Who let her get smallpox in her early years, it is a pockmark on her face, which is really scary.

Because of the death of Nicholas I, the Grand Duchess also returned to St. Petersburg for mourning, and is now often in and out of the Winter Palace.

Boris said that only the Grand Duchess could see Vishniak, which was obviously a mockery. How could Vishniak stand it? He retorted angrily:

"Nonsense, who would be involved with that old monster! The one who was flirting with me was Grand Duchess Elena Pavlovna, she was a first-class beauty!"

As soon as Vishniak's voice fell, Li Xiao spit it out. Although this Grand Duchess Elena was his elder like the previous Grand Duchess Maria Pavlovna, he was the only one who came here. It is said that the two senses are completely different.

The Grand Duchess in front was really ugly and was not close to Li Xiao. He had only met him once since he was born. As for the Grand Duchess Elena, although he didn't have too much contact with him, he could be regarded as a close friend for a long time. He admired the character and foresight of the Grand Duchess very much.

Anyway, he didn't quite believe that the Grand Duchess Elena would flirt with Vishniak. After all, the age gap between the two parties was too big, and the Grand Duchess didn't seem to be a master who likes to eat tender grass.

"What are you kidding!" Boris also didn't believe it. "Elena Grand Duchess can see you as a mountain gun and flirt with you. You are probably dreaming!"

But Vishniak waved his fingers triumphantly and said with a smile: "You are envious and jealous, don't you believe it? Tell you, this was seen by dozens of people. The day before yesterday, the Grand Duchess came out of the queen's place. I smiled lightly, tsk tsk, envious of those little brats..."

Vishniak said it was true, there was a time and place, but Boris and Li Xiao still didn't believe it, because this guy is a bit too narcissistic at times, it is very likely that the Grand Duchess Elena just smiled casually and then He made up his eyebrows.

However, Li Xiao's focus was not here, but the Grand Duchess Elena went to find the queen. You must know that although the relationship between Alexander II and Queen Maria Alexandrovna was not particularly good. But he still relied heavily on this queen. After all, his father was very precious to this daughter-in-law back then, which indirectly added points to his succession.

And this queen is also considered to have a bigger picture, and can always give Alexander II pertinent advice at critical moments, so there are many things that Alexander II will ask the queen for his opinion when he is undecided.

And the Grand Duchess Elena went to the queen at this time, and according to Vishniak, they talked for a long time, so it is very worthy of attention: what did they talk about?

It's a pity that even the best third spies don't even think about getting close to the Winter Palace. Li Xiao really couldn't find information about this. However, Vishniak gave him a surprise: "What did we talk about? It's not a reform issue. Grand Duchess Elena is here to persuade the Queen, hoping that she will persuade Her Majesty to start the reform process as soon as possible, but the Queen doesn't seem to agree. …”

Li Xiao was surprised: "How do you know so clearly?"

Vishniak smiled and replied proudly: "I told you all, I am a lover, there is no woman I can't handle!"

Boris asked in a daze: "You got the queen? Can your majesty spare you?"

Vishniak glared at him angrily~www.novelbuddy.com~ angrily said: "You are stupid! I have nothing to provoke any queen, and I told you that Grand Duchess Elena and I were flirting with me..."

It's just that before he finished talking, Li Xiao directly exposed him: "You got the maid next to the queen?"

Vishniak was stunned, looked at Li Xiao blankly and asked, "How did you know?"

This time, it was Li Xiao's turn to laugh out loud. He didn't know this old friend. He did have a way to deal with women, but it was limited to women whose status was not too high. Maybe he was a bird. At most, he got the maid next to the queen. Please note that it is a maid and not a female official. After all, the latter is also a count and marquise, and he doesn't like Vishniak.

Only a young waitress with a very average status could possibly use the playboy's tricks, and as expected, this guy is quite quick to start.

Vishniak sighed and said: "Yes, Miss Maria Nikolaevna is very interesting to me, if it wasn't for her to serve the queen today, how could I accompany you two mountain guns here. Grind your teeth!" 4255/11086699
