Lebezovsky would not be so stupid as to blatantly send someone directly to investigate Schikov, but it is not possible not to investigate, so the investigation against Schikov was carried out in secret.

After several days of investigation, the results of the investigation were obtained.

As a result, Schikov did not have even the slightest problem.

This was so much of a surprise to Lebezovsky, who thought that even if he could not find out the real problems, he would be able to find at least some problems, but the results turned out to be very clean, and surprisingly clean, with no problems at all, not even a flaw, which aroused Lebezovsky's suspicions even more.

No one is perfect, and no matter how perfect a person is, he also has imperfections.

And it was this perfection of Schikov that made Lebezovsky feel that there must be something wrong with this Schikov, how could a person be so perfect, and such perfection can only show one problem, that is, this perfection is deliberately made to show people, it is intentional, if so, everything is easy to explain, but the problem is even greater.

If this is the case, then Schikov's intentions are very deep, so deep that people can't fathom them, but what exactly does he want to hide, what is the purpose of hiding them, if what he is hiding has nothing to do with the facts of the case, then it is inconvenient to investigate deeply, and if it is related to the facts of the case, then it must be dug deeply.

Schikov was an important general in the military and Zhukov's boss, and if he was even involved in the case, the case would be far more complicated than imagined, and some of it might even be unthinkable for Lebezovsky.

Dig deep, you have to dig deep.

The old prime minister himself made a bold assumption that Zhukov was framed.

If Zhukov was framed, the person who framed him is becoming more and more uncertain, possibly Belinsko. Although his suspicion has been ruled out for the time being, it does not mean that he is not suspicious, and more importantly, behind Belinsko there is an authentic candidate for the throne, Gutavov.

In the sense of succession to the throne, Belinsko and Gutavov are seriously suspicious. And they also have a motive to commit crimes.

But what about Schikov, and for what?

It stands to reason that he was Zhukov's boss and the most trusted person of the tsar, and if Nicholas II was able to hand over Zhukov to him for discipline, it fully shows that Schikov was a trustworthy person, and besides, he was an important minister of the military. Logically, he should have supported Zhukov, but all indications indicated that Schikov was quite suspicious.

After much deliberation, Lebezovsky finally decided to move forward along this bold assumption, and thus intensify the investigation of Schikov, making sure to find out what was hidden behind this guy.

And just as Lebezovsky was intensively investigating Schikov. Suddenly, the tsar's will came, and the old tsar wanted to summon the old prime minister, Lebezovsky.

Lebezovsky did not dare to slack off. The case in hand went straight to the court.

And Nicholas II also summoned Lebezovsky in the summer palace.

When Lebezovsky met the Tsar, he was in a furious manner, he scolded the attendants who served him, and it seemed that he was in a bad mood.

Lebezovsky could only stand still. Wait for the Tsar to let out this breath.

The furious Tsar did not begin to dissipate until his eyes rested on Lebezovsky, who was standing on the sidelines, and then, with a wave of his hand, the attendants who had annoyed him withdrew.

The idle people will retire as soon as they are finished. The old tsar complained to Lebezovsky angrily: "Look, look, what are these people thinking, they all want me to die soon, what a bastard!" ”

If you are in a bad mood and anger others, he is a tsar, and he has this right.

And Lebezovsky was not a tsar, how dare he speak out on the sidelines, just stand quietly, make a respectful gesture, and then listen to the scolding.

Moreover, Lebezovsky knew better than anyone why the old tsar was in a bad mood, and no matter who became the tsar, as long as he encountered such a thing as Zhukov, he would definitely not be happy.

However, it is difficult for those who serve the Tsar, who cannot help but do things well, and at the same time, they must be in good spirits, and with a strong psychological quality, they are ready to withstand the intermittent wrath of the Tsar at any time.

The waiter is also so good.

This can only be said that as soon as the Zhukov incident happened, no matter who had a hard time, and everyone was praying, hoping that such a day would end sooner.

Who wants to face these troublesome things all day long, I'm afraid no one wants to.

And after Nicholas II vented, he slowly calmed down, he glanced at Lebezovsky who was humble, couldn't help but pout, and then said disapprehantly: "Old fellow, what you pretend, you are honest." ”

The tsar was a little dissatisfied with Lebezovsky's attitude, and every time it was like this, the old guy always liked to pretend to be respectful in front of him, and he was angry when he looked at it.

He wondered if he should teach this guy a lesson, otherwise, he would always look at that stinky face, and he would be angry, and he would be angry.

However, it turned out that everything he did was in vain, and he had to continue to be angry.

No, here we go again.

"Your Majesty, the ceremony must not be abolished." Lebezovsky, as always, was humble and authentic.

Lebezovsky's ideas were very different from those of the tsar.

Although his relationship with the tsar is very unusual, Lebezovsky knows very well the truth that accompanying the king is like accompanying the tiger, if the tiger is unhappy one day, then maybe it will jump up and eat people, so it is better to be careful, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, be careful, and set the tone of everything a little lower, it is always right.

"Okay, okay, less nonsense, it's useless to talk about you anyway, so let's get back to business." The tsar waved his hand, a little helplessly.

Faced with this old fellow as hard as a stone, the Tsar could only sigh in vain.

"Yes, please show me, Your Majesty." Lebezovsky bent over again and said.

His philosophy is to be careful, and he has been careful all his life, and he must not make any big mess when he is about to die, so he has to be more careful and deal with it carefully.

All in all, care is the best.

Nicholas II shook his head, he really couldn't do anything about this old guy, he didn't think of a way, he had thought of many ways, but, no matter what he did, he just couldn't shake the idea of this stubborn old guy, since this is the case, don't waste your efforts anymore, let's leave some strength to get down to business, but, when I think of business, the old Tsar suddenly seems to be several years old.

He's worried!

When he encountered such a thing when he was about to die, it really ruined his prestige in his life.

However, since it has happened, it has to be solved, and the mess must be cut through quickly.

Once the tsar's heart hardened, it was as solid as a rock.

"What is the progress of Zhukov's case?" The tsar said lightly.

It could be heard that Nicholas II was deliberately talking about this in a flat tone.

However, under this bland tone, Lebezovsky could feel the unrest under this bland tone, and as a friend who could be trusted with his heart, he knew the tsar too well.

Lebezovsky preferred to do his best to share the Tsar's worries.

So, the old prime minister straightened out his thoughts and reported to His Majesty the Tsar on the relevant investigations of the Zhukov case during this period of time, of course, among them, he did not explain some of his own inferences to the Tsar, after all, these inferences are still only in the stage of inference, and there is not enough evidence to corroborate.

However, Lebezovsky also knew that the old tsar was shrewd, and even if he didn't say something, the tsar could also think clearly, so it was better not to say it.

And after hearing this, the Tsar's complexion did not change, no one knew what he was thinking, and Lebezovsky could not guess either, but he knew that the Tsar's heart must be uncomfortable.

Lebezovsky did not speak, but stood still, guarding His Tsar's Majesty like a loyal guard.

The old tsar was silent for a moment, then slowly closed his eyes and was speechless for a long time.

Obviously, the tsar also understood that the case was related to several important people, and whoever the final mastermind was, it was an unbearable burden for the Russian Empire and for him personally.

And all indications are that this seems to have something to do with the crown prince.

But the reason why the tsar has not decided on the last heir to the throne for a long time is because he is responsible for the Russian Empire, and he wants to choose the most suitable heir to the empire, but he did not expect that it is such a test that gives birth to so many problems, and these problems are enough to make the empire break its bones, which is really not a good thing.

However, the matter has come to this point, and the tsar has no way out, and the people involved have no way out, and they must all go on resolutely until a result is reached.

However, as soon as he thought of the person involved, the old tsar was a little upset.

Now, the only thing he could count on was Lebezovsky, and there was still a glimmer of hope in his heart, and he hoped that the final result would prove his idea wrong, and the result had nothing to do with these people. (To be continued......)
