I'm playing whack-a-mole in Siberia

Chapter 25 Prisoners of Gatchina (please follow up)

Leisure time is always short. George will go into town after breakfast. There is a luncheon in the Kremlin and George must appear.

After so many years of marriage, the Romanov family had countless relatives, and George had to show up at the luncheon to prove that he was still alive.

Dalia had prepared a dress for George early. The white military uniform was handsome and handsome, the black boots were so bright that the figure could be seen in the figure, the leather helmet was inlaid with golden decorations, and the scabbard of the saber was inlaid with precious stones.

George pulled out the knife, took a look at it, and then inserted it back in. It was a real knife, it was sharpened, it was not just a fake.

For safety reasons, George still rode in a carriage. Andrei and George sat in the carriage together, and Ye Luoxin rode beside the carriage. In St. Petersburg, when George traveled, there were only 12 people in the escort. After being warned by the assassin, the number of guards It has doubled.

The Kremlin was heavily guarded, with guards standing next to each other. Yeluoxin and Andrei could only send George to the door. Their status was not high enough to participate in a banquet of this level.

The palace was extremely lively, and there were piles of people everywhere. George looked around, but he was still embarrassed that he didn't recognize anyone.

It can’t be said that he didn’t know anyone. Army Minister Milyutin and a group of senior military generals were chatting near the gate. When George walked into the hall, Milyutin took the initiative to greet him.

"Good day, distinguished Duke Yurievsky -" Milyutin smiled, like a kind and ordinary little old man. The marshal uniform on his body always reminded others that he is the number one person in the Russian military today. .

Milyutin's military reforms had a profound impact on Russia. Russia's modern army can be said to have been created by Milyutin.

Without Milyutin, there would be no victory in the Tenth Russo-Turkish War.

"Good day, Marshal, you look really energetic -" George said with a flattery.

"Hahahaha - distinguished Duke, didn't Duke Yuryevskaya tell you not to judge someone casually -" Milyutin was not accusing George of having no tutor, but was joking with George.

If Yaer was still alive, Milyutin might be George's military teacher.

When Yaer was still alive, he hoped that Milyutin would become George's military teacher and teach him military knowledge.

Milyutin holds many responsibilities. In addition to the Minister of War, he is also a member of the State Council, the honorary dean of the Imperial Nikolai Military Academy and the Alexander Law School, an honorary academician of the Academy of Sciences, the Academy of Artillery, the Academy of Engineering, the Academy of Surgery, etc. He works very hard. Busy, from morning to night every day.

Milyutin did not refuse Yaer's invitation. Although George had not yet started studying military-related courses, Milyutin was still very concerned about George.

"I heard that you recently adopted a group of disabled veterans -" the smile on Milyujing's face faded, and you couldn't even tell it without looking carefully: "-you did a good job, this was originally my responsibility, It’s a pity I didn’t do it.”

As Minister of War, Milyutin should be responsible for all retired veterans of the empire.

The situation in Russia is very complicated. Milyutin tried his best, but he couldn't make things perfect.

Before coming to Moscow, Milyutin submitted his resignation to Alexander. After Alexander ascends the throne, Milyutin will officially resign as Minister of War.

This is normal, Milyugin is a veteran of Ya Er.

Once an emperor and a courtier, after Asan ascended the throne, the Minister of War must be replaced by someone whom Asan trusted. Instead of relying on the position of Minister of War and waiting to be driven out, Milyutin might as well resign directly and retain his dignity.

"It just happened to happen. I didn't adopt them. I just provided them with a job." George sounded the alarm. This matter may be big or small.

Adopting veterans does not mean raising dead soldiers, but if someone insists on connecting the two things together, the consequences will be serious.

Since Milyugin mentioned this matter in person, it means that someone has begun to pay attention to it. If George does not pay enough attention to it, the consequences will be unpredictable.    If George’s love is still alive, there will definitely be no problem in adopting veterans, and no one will make irresponsible remarks.

Now George's situation is quite complicated. If the situation goes online, it will be very dangerous.

"You are such a kind man, I wish you a good time -" Milyutin dropped a word, and Shi Shiran returned to the generals.

George was very grateful for Milyutin's reminder. He was indeed a little drifting during this period, and he went too far.

There are so many veterans in Russia every year, but others don't care about them, just because George has a conscience, right?
  It was a Cossack tradition for Ye Luoxin to adopt veterans. Since he had a low status and little ability, it didn't matter if he adopted a few veterans.

George is different. Many people dislike him as a Duke, and any mistake will be magnified infinitely.

The more George thought about it, the heavier he felt. After all, he was still too young and had too little experience.

Small--

This is George's biggest reliance.

If George were an adult, the consequences would indeed be unpredictable.

But if George is a nine-year-old child, even if he does something extraordinary, how bad can he be in the eyes of others?
  Ye Luoxin was invited by Yekaterina. Out of her mother's concern for her son's safety, it makes sense for Yekaterina to strengthen the security level of Yekaterina Palace. After all, everyone is in danger now, even the Tsar. Decided to move back to Gatchina Palace, George's little move is just childish.

With the tragedy of Ya Er's assassination in front of him, Ya San's emphasis on safety has increased to an unprecedented level.

The Winter Palace is located in the center of St. Petersburg, with a complex environment where assassins are unpredictable and unpredictable.

Gatchina Palace is located on the outskirts of St. Petersburg, next to the military camp, and its safety is more guaranteed, so Nikolai and Georgi have not enjoyed the prosperity of St. Petersburg for a few days, and they have to return to the narrow attic of Gatchina Palace.

George had a slight headache.

The Winter Palace is not far from the Yekaterin Palace. George went to the Winter Palace to accompany him to study, and it was only a short carriage ride away.

After Nicholas moved back to Gatchina Palace, it took George at least two hours to take a carriage to Gatchina Palace, so at least four hours a day were wasted on commuting.

In his previous life, George worked in Shanghai. It took at least two hours to get from where he lived to the company. The long commute made George feel worse than death.

Nima returned to the 19th century and still had to waste a lot of time commuting. George looked desperate.

"Uncle George, what's wrong with you?" The instigator was unaware. Seeing George's ugly face, he thought George was sick.

"I'm fine. Are you moving back to Gatchina Palace?" George still had the last glimmer of hope.

"Yes, Georgi and I are moving back to Gatchina Palace. It's not fun there at all. Georgi asked his father if he could go to your Yekaterin Palace, but he was scolded by his father." Gula was very sad. Just a few days after he was freed, he had to go back to be his prisoner in Gatchina.
