Struggle in Russia - #2294 - Vol 3 Chapter 1342: Being slapped in the face (Part 2)
Grand Duke Constantine suddenly felt relaxed and read every newspaper carefully again. When he read it, he couldn’t help but praise it, and he was as happy as a child.
Seeing the seriousness of this scene, the butler was naturally worried. He could only hang his head lower, hoping that Grand Duke Constantine would be immersed in the cheerful atmosphere and not care about other details.
After reading the newspaper for half an hour, Grand Duke Constantine, who was still unfinished, sighed and glanced at the butler who was bowing his head in silence. He felt a little puzzled and felt that the butler was too silent today.
But he didn’t think there was any problem. Maybe the housekeeper didn’t want to talk today?
He was in a good mood and began to figure out how to pursue the victory and beat the drowned dog. He should continue to launch a public opinion offensive. Well, should he go to Nikolai Milyutin’s place again to see if he is still so cool today?
He immediately said to the housekeeper: “Prepare the car, I want to go to the Ministry of Interior!”
The butler’s expression suddenly changed, and his lips twitched a few times, as if he wanted to stop him, but in the end he did not dare to say anything.
Grand Duke Constantine changed his clothes as quickly as possible, took the newspaper bought by the butler and prepared to set off with great satisfaction. Who would have thought that before he could go out, Viscount Prozolov would rush in like a storm. He waved a large pile of newspapers and said anxiously: “Something big has happened! Your Highness, something big has happened!”
Grand Duke Constantine was confused and lectured him unhappily: “Why are you panicking? How can you behave in such a hurry? What’s the big deal?”
Viscount Prozolov was stunned, looked him up and down, and asked puzzledly: “You don’t know?”
Grand Duke Constantine asked in confusion: “What should I know?”
Viscount Prozolov glanced at him again and saw that he was not pretending, so he handed over the thick stack of newspapers in his hand: “Read it yourself!”
Grand Duke Constantine took over the newspaper with doubts. The first one was the largest newspaper in Russia, “St. Petersburg Gazette”. This newspaper is old. It has been alive since the time of Nicholas I and has been tenaciously existing. It belongs to that kind of political A broadsheet newspaper that is not too radical but has a broad audience.
Generally speaking, prominent figures in St. Petersburg will read it. Grand Duke Constantine felt regretful because the butler failed to buy him this newspaper. Obviously the editor-in-chief and chief writer of this newspaper were here yesterday. As long as they were interested in a certain If the **** fires, the impact will be unprecedented!
However, the front page headline of the “St. Petersburg News” in the hands of Grand Duke Constantine was not a criticism of Li Xiao. Instead, it published an article titled “On the Importance of the Ethics of Journalists.”
At first, he thought that the political stance of the St. Petersburg News might have always been conservative, and it was afraid of sinners, so it did not comply with his request.
But when he saw the content of the front-page article, his face suddenly turned livid. Because this article criticized the “Voice of Liberty” from beginning to end, scolded it bloody, listed its various “crimes”, and finally made it a shame for the St. Petersburg press and called on the St. Petersburg press to follow its example. Clear boundaries and learn from them!
“Damn it!”
Grand Duke Constantine crumpled the newspaper in his hand into a ball and threw it to the ground.
“These eggless **** dare to go against me, how brave they are!”
No matter how stupid he is, he can see that the St. Petersburg Gazeta did not stand on his side at all, but on the side of Li Xiao and Nikolai Milyutin. This editorial directly declared war on him!
Grand Duke Constantine cursed angrily: “Sooner or later I will shut down this lousy newspaper!”
Viscount Prozolov snorted coldly and reminded: “You’d better take a look at the one below!”
Grand Duke Constantine looked at the second newspaper suspiciously, which was the “Current Affairs News”.
The influence of this newspaper is no less than that of the St. Petersburg Gazette. In a sense, it is actually the mouthpiece of the reformists. The position of this newspaper represents the overall position of the reformists. It is actually more important than the St. Petersburg Gazette. The News is even stronger.
What just makes Grand Duke Constantine look ugly is that it is also criticizing the “Voice of Liberty”, saying that it has deviated from the basic conscience and ethics of the news media. The editors deserve to be arrested for just sensationalizing!
Grand Duke Constantine was so angry that his mouth trembled. Every time he read this article, his blood pressure would rise a little higher. He was really furious at the end!
Viscount Prozolov was not polite at all and said sarcastically: “You can’t stand this? Just read on. Most newspapers today are criticizing the “Voice of Liberty”. It has become Everyone shouts to beat the rat crossing the street!”
Grand Duke Constantine was in pain as if his heart was torn apart. He flipped through the newspapers one after another in disbelief. Sure enough, as Viscount Prozolov said, what everyone was referring to became the “Voice of Liberty”, and he became A complete clown!
ah! !
Archduke Constantine roared angrily~www.readwn.com~ and tore the newspaper in his hand into pieces. In his rage, he was like a red-eyed bull, wanting to **** everything he saw.
However, Viscount Prozolov was not an easy target for him. The former sneered: “Your Highness, I reminded you yesterday not to act out of emotion, let alone underestimate Nikolai Milyutin. If I hadn’t done anything, If it’s wrong, he must have stepped in to suppress those newspapers and make them do what he was told!”
Grand Duke Constantine’s mind was in chaos, and a storm was brewing in his mind. Viscount Prozolov’s words suddenly made him find his target, and he roared angrily: “You are right, it must be Nikolai. This old man Milyuting is making trouble! I’m not done with him!”
Viscount Prozolov was surprised by these words. He had no intention of letting Grand Duke Constantine vent his anger to Nikolai Milyutin. That would be no different from seeking death.
The reason why he pointed out Nikolai Milyutin’s role was to remind Grand Duke Constantine how wise he was yesterday and how serious the consequences would be if he did not listen to his advice.
He meant to make Grand Duke Constantine obey, not to add fuel to the fire and make things get out of hand!
He quickly said: “Your Highness, now is not the time to talk about this. The most important thing now is to ease the conflict and calm the situation. We must not let Count Nikolai Milyutin continue to pursue and fight!”
Grand Duke Konstantin breathed out from his nostrils. He felt a fire in his chest. He wanted to vent his anger and make Nikolai Milyutin pay the price for humiliating him, but Viscount Prozolov asked him to calm down. Do you think Will he be comfortable?
But if he doesn’t listen, Viscount Prozolov might leave him again. Then he will have to face the humiliation of Nikolay Milyutin and no one will come up with an idea. Isn’t this even more terrible?
