Struggle in Russia - Vol 3 Chapter 694
Frederick I took the document suspiciously, flipped through it carefully, and found that it was a thick stack of bills. He was no stranger to this kind of thing. He had seen too many such bills recently. In particular, the name on the bill was even more familiar to him, it was Julianne.
“Where did you get this? Are you meanly spying on me?” Friedrich I was furious.
Alexey replied calmly: “We have no interest in you, at least when Prince William has vouched for you, we have no interest in you. But Miss Julianne is different. Besides, Your Highness, you’d better be careful. Look at these bills…”
Friedrich I, still angry, shook the bill and asked, “Look closely, are you just going to blackmail me with this? I paid this for a lovely lady? So what? I’m single, I’m not even engaged, I can give anything to the lady I like!”
“Of course you can,” Alexei responded calmly, “but then you can’t marry Princess Louise unless you’re a jerk!”
Friedrich I was so stunned that he was speechless, because although his tough statement just now made sense, he could indeed do it. But being able to do it doesn’t mean it’s okay to do so. If he really did this to William I, he would never marry Princess Louise to him. After all, the royal family is shameful, at least in public.
But that’s not the point, because Alexei didn’t intend to use this to blackmail him, although he pointed this out just now, but mainly to tell Frederick I – what do you pull, you beep again Don’t believe I really do this.
Seeing that Frederick I was speechless, Alexei felt that the purpose had been achieved, so he continued to remind: “Show you that these are not used to blackmail you, look at these bills carefully, and make sure you are familiar with them all. All right? Your Royal Highness!”
Friedrich I lowered his head suspiciously and checked the bills again. It took him a while to see the clue, because these bills were not the money he spent for Julianne. In fact, these huge expenditures were far beyond his financial capacity. Come on, if these bills were all he paid, he would be bankrupt by now!
“It’s impossible! I haven’t paid the money!” he exclaimed.
Alexei added at the right time: “Yes, I know you have not paid the money. Then the question arises. Given Miss Julianne’s family conditions and financial ability, do you think she can afford the money?”
This time, Friedrich I didn’t speak, because there was no way to defend Julianne, even he couldn’t afford it, let alone a girl from ordinary backgrounds.
It took him a while to defend Julianne: “Maybe…probably…maybe she’s suddenly rich?”
“Get rich suddenly?” Alexei laughed. “If there is such a good thing, you’d better tell me how to get rich suddenly, because I’m short of money right now! But do you believe this kind of nonsense?”
Frederick I suddenly stopped talking. He couldn’t even convince himself of such self-deceiving nonsense, and naturally he didn’t believe it.
Suddenly his face turned blue and white, but he remained stubbornly silent, and he could see that he still wanted to protect Julianne, and this required Alexei to continue to give him a blow.
“Let’s get out of the loop, let’s unravel the mystery!” Alexei said seriously, “Austria helped pay these bills, because it was a payment for Miss Julianne to serve them, a total of 285,000 Seven hundred, and in addition to their latest deal, the Austrians will pay a remuneration of up to half a million, the first one hundred thousand in advance was delivered to Miss Julianne’s house yesterday.”
Frederick I was stunned. He looked at the bill and then at Alexei, wanting to say that these are all fakes, all fabrications, all lies, and all frame-ups. But, again, reason told him it was all true, because it was so easy to debunk such a lie, and there was no need for the Russians to tell such a mentally retarded lie.
After a long time, he raised his head and asked, “Listen to what you mean, you already have sufficient evidence?”
Alexey replied bluntly: “Yes, we have arrested the Austrian spy chief, Count Helensen, who is Miss Julianne’s line, and he will assign Miss Julianne specific tasks and pay the remuneration.”
“Count Helenson?”
Frederick I had an impression of this person because he once visited this person with Julianne. At that time, Julianne said that Helenson was her friend. At that time, he also suspected that Julianne and Helenson had an affair, and sent someone to investigate. This person, but it was later found out that this person was an Austrian nobleman, but he came to Bucharest to do business, because he didn’t have much contact with Julianne, so he didn’t pay much attention to it.
But Alexei said that Helensen was an Austrian spy. In retrospect, the relationship between this guy and Julianne was indeed a bit weird, but Friedrich I didn’t fully believe it, because he always felt that the Russians were mean and did everything. Come out and make up a story to slander Julianne and frame Austria under the current circumstances is entirely possible.
“Listen to what you mean, this Mr. Helenson has already confessed?” he asked slowly.
“Yes, he confessed to all crimes, but…”
With Alexei’s deliberate meal~www.mtlnovel.com~Friedrich I hurriedly asked: “Just what?”
Looking at the appearance of Frederick I, he probably thought that Alexei had killed Helensen by killing and killing, and he felt that the Russians could do such a thing.
It’s just that Alexei’s answer exceeded his expectations: “It’s just that our action is still a little late, the Earl of Helensen has assigned Miss Julianne a brand new evil task, so I have to invite you to come Come to an appointment to discuss a solution to this problem together!”
Friedrich I was stunned. He felt that with Alexei’s ability and Russian means, it should not be difficult to solve an Austrian spy, right? What’s more, even if Julianne has a relationship with him, as long as Julianne really threatens Russia’s interests, the Russians will definitely not care about his so-called crown prince’s feelings.
So what do the Russians mean by that?
Alexey didn’t continue to sell the ties, and quickly gave an explanation: “If the Austrian’s evil plan succeeds, I believe it will greatly damage the relationship between the Grand Duchy of Baden and Prussia, as well as the relationship between Prussia and Russia. The prince’s expectations for you, we must take care of your feelings, considering your feelings for Miss Julianne, this makes me very embarrassed…”
