Chapter 659: The Man Who Sets Up the Bureau

After Lebezovsky had a secret conversation with the Tsar, Lebezovsky left the palace, but no one knew what they talked about.

It's just that after Lebezovsky left the palace, he began to retire again.

Ignoring the landslide, I was at ease, and this was the state of Lebezovsky's life after that.

Put down everything in your hands and go away, the only person who can do it is the old prime minister.

As for what the prime minister said to the tsar, I am afraid I don't know, the prime minister originally went to meet the tsar with the purpose of exposing the real murderer, but in the end he was out of the game.

What the truth is, no one knows.

However, Lebezovsky's change did not attract the attention of others, who all believed that the old prime minister had finished the case, and the tsar was very satisfied, so the tsar allowed him to continue to rest.

Of course, except for those who have a heart, ordinary people will not notice this small change that has occurred between the courts, and it is this small change that indicates that the empire is about to undergo a big change, perhaps in the near future.

And these changes did not affect the majority of the people, who were anxiously waiting for the tsar to announce the final outcome of the case.

They want to know who the real culprit is.

Finally, the will was given.

The murderer was not Zhukov, he was also framed, and the real murderer had been beheaded and had been secretly executed, and the case was thus closed, and no one was allowed to mention the case again, and if anyone did, he would be punished severely.

Everyone was looking forward to it, and they didn't want to wait for such a result, so there were happy people, dissatisfied people, and confused people. One will in exchange for too many different moods.

This is enough to prove that the tsar is still in control of the empire, everything is still in his hands.

And after the will of this case, there is a second will.

This will relates to a number of personnel appointments.

There will be a huge change in the personnel arrangements of the empire.

Zhukov was promoted to the position of crown prince and was officially confirmed as the next candidate for the tsar.

Gutavov was promoted to the position of prime minister, replacing the old prime minister Lebezovsky, who had already become a minister

Zhukov's supporters of the military were all promoted to the rank of knight, and Gutavov's confidant Belinsko was promoted to deputy prime minister and minister of economy.

It seems that all the people who have a stake in each other have been promoted.

There seems to be a tacit balance in the court. And this balance can only be deeply experienced by being in the midst of it.

Moreover, this is a personnel appointment that no one can openly oppose, almost perfectly, taking care of the interests of all parties, and also catching all important people, so that everyone has a vested interest, so who will object.

There is no doubt that all this was arranged by the tsar. Of course, it is unknown whether there is a counselor of someone else among them, and such an arrangement can also make the court tend to be balanced.

Only the balance can be maintained if there is a balance between the civil and military forces, and this is what the tsar wants.

And the so-called battle for the crown prince finally came to an end, and Zhukov became the best heir to the throne in the eyes of the tsar. A hundred years after the old tsar, he will become the next tsar.

Zhukov heard the news while in prison. And after hearing this news, he didn't react for a long time, where is this, just now he was still a murderer, and in a blink of an eye, he became the next Tsar candidate, and the moment he heard the news. He's still in prison, isn't the contrast between the two too great?

However, after being stunned, it was an ecstasy from the bottom of his heart, and he finally got his wish. He is going to be a tsar, and the suffering he has endured for so many days has not been in vain, he is the next tsar.

Tsar, what a word that lifted his spirit.

Of course, he was happier than being elected the next Tsar, that he was now free, that he no longer had to be imprisoned, and that he was living here like a year.

In Zhukov's opinion at this time, freedom was more important than anything else.

More importantly, in this incident, he finally understood a truth, to be a tsar, to govern a country, that is not an easy task, relying on brute force alone is not good to govern the country, he has to learn a lot of things, especially to learn how to be a qualified tsar.

And since Zhukov can learn from this round of lessons, Gutavov can, of course, too.

When Gutavov announced that Zhukov would become the next Tsar, he immediately felt a deep sense of loss in his heart, he originally thought that the position of Tsar had become his bag, but who would have thought that this thing would change so quickly, and in an instant, what he thought was a sure victory has changed and lost its original taste.

Although he was disappointed, he did not lose his mind, and since the Tsar appointed him as the new Prime Minister, which was also a disguised compensation for his work, what else could he say.

Besides, what he has done, the Tsar must have already known, and since the Tsar is willing to not blame the past, it is the greatest tolerance for him, how can he get an inch more.

Gutavov also figured it out, the prime minister is the prime minister, as long as there is strong power, what is impossible.

And for the tsar, it is a kind of luck, no, he has not lost anything, and no one has said that the position of tsar must be whomever it should be.

In the end, Gutavov calmly accepted such an arrangement.

And those who originally wanted to climb the dragon and attach the phoenix are different.

If the bet wins, it is like those military groups attached to Zhukov's side, of course, they are overjoyed, and this round, at least their master wins.

And such as Belinsko and the like, he has nothing to complain about, the deputy prime minister is only one level lower than the prime minister, and he is also the minister of economy, in terms of real power, compared with before, it is much thicker, so Gutavov did not become the tsar, and the loss for him is not very large, at least within the range that he can accept.

Therefore, the Tsar's will, this has almost become a happy situation, which is really a good calculation.

However, joy returned to joy, but they never understood why His Majesty the Tsar's attitude suddenly took a 180-degree turn and brought about such a happy ending.

About this conclusion, perhaps, only the tsar himself could explain, at best, the old prime minister, no, the former prime minister, Lebezovsky would have known a little.

Although everyone was curious, none of them who wanted to find death would ask the Tsar this question, and if so, it was really looking for death.

Anyway, this thing has passed.

But what is going on here, and why did the tsar make such a decision, on a whim, or for a long time?

And the Tsar was the only one who knew the beginning and the end of this, and as for Lebezovsky, he only knew some outlines, besides, this was what the Tsar told him to know, and as for the more details, he did not know very much.

So, what did this tsar think.

It turned out that all this was a game set up by this old guy.

The tsar long ago wanted Zhukov to take over as the next tsar, and those folk legends are not all groundless, this Zhukov may really be his illegitimate son, as for whether it is or not, only the tsar himself understands in his heart, but it must be eight or nine inseparable, and as for this reason, the tsar passed the future tsar position to Zhukov, then it is easy to explain.

But what about the murder at the cocktail party, this is also a bureau of the old Tsar, the purpose of which is to beat a Zhukov and Gutavov so that they do not get carried away.

The old tsar first asked Lebezovsky to take Zhukov to attend the reception held by Luvin, of course, Lebezovsky did not know the real purpose of the tsar at this time, and during the reception, the tsar ordered his personal guards to kill the maid in the Gutavov mansion and framed Zhukov, thus putting Zhukov in prison.

As for the pocket watch used to frame Zhukov's murder, it was placed on the deceased after the Tsar ordered Schikov to steal it from Zhukov, and later, Schikov said that Belinsko also had such a pocket watch, which was also instructed by the Tsar.

As for the assassination of Zhukov in prison later, this was a surprise to the Tsar, it was not arranged by him, and it was at this time that the Tsar realized that the situation could get out of control, so he instructed the old prime minister to end it as soon as possible.

Later, the old Prime Minister Gutavov was the murderer of Zhukov, and when he entered the camp to report the matter to His Majesty, the Tsar told him that it was all over and asked him to hand over the prime ministership.

By this time, if the old prime minister didn't know that this was a game, he would have really been infatuated for so many years.

Eventually, he hung up his crown and left.

In short, all of this is a bureau set up by the Tsar, and everyone is in the game, at the mercy of the Tsar, which also indirectly makes everyone realize that as long as the Tsar reigns for one day, he is the real master of the empire.

And these things, the Tsar also briefly expounded on the last time he summoned Lebezovsky to the palace, but many of the details were unknown to the former prime minister.

That is, it was the tsar, Nicholas II, who manipulated all this from beginning to end.

This is the Imperial City Mansion, and all the people involved have been taught a lesson alive.

Among them, some people have a deep experience, some people have a small experience, some people do not have an experience, the understanding is different, the mood is different, the key is to see the depth of your play.

Of course, the tsar will not say this to people, how can the emperor's mind be guessed, it is best to let the people below guess slowly, anyway, his goal has been achieved.

Fortunately, the big picture is as he expected. (To be continued......)
