Actually, very well, as long as everything is calm and there is only one or two troublemakers. This is your chance to prove your strength, skill and loyalty to the Sovereign. As soon as a rumor spread around Moscow that the Grand Prince was not present in the city, he left in an unknown direction, the work of the Secret Office was disrupted.
When Valentin came to the Secret Office, there was no one there. There was no one at the reception either. On the rack hung a prisoner forgotten there.
"Hello! Is there anybody here?" Valentine tried to find at least someone. "I need to see a detainee!"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgzMPk2f7Vz
Nobody responded and feeling remorse, Valentin took a bunch of keys off from the wall. Valentin lit a torch and went down to the basement. The steps were very steep, if you fall you could break your neck.
"Nicolas! Are you there?" Valentin called into the darkness.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUvJu2zcM7E
"I'm here, did you bring me an excusing paper?"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zf76siG0Y
"Even better, I have the keys!" Valentin began to pick up the key to the cage where Nicolas was sitting.
"How did you get here? I accidentally found out where you are!"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSrzThmF5p
"Vivian invited me to the bathhouse, where her brothers later descended, at the most improper moment!" Nicolas began to look around in the office. "And where did everyone go? What is going on here?"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS3vshEYTgS
"Tatars in the city! Actual Crimean Tornado! They burn suburb villages! They fuck everyone in a row, no mercy neither women nor men!"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yUcH5r2Jl
"What?! No way!" Nicolas didn't believe it.
Way!
Seven hefty Tatars burst into the hall. "Hey you two! Where is your boss?"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtqfJyBWzX3
Valentin and Nicolas just shrugged.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMiAZ0VxIP
"Doesn't matter! Where are papers?"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmhyO9Bjlvp
"What papers?"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqN7qnhapfn
"What the twerps! Papers on arrested persons, who have been brought in, who have already been hanged. Papers! Papers! We need papers!"
"Maybe there," Valentin waved towards the shelves and chests.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQvhTwIUTpi
"Maybe there," one of them mocked him, "what kind of morons serve the Grand Prince."
The Tatars began to look over the papers, but there were simply too many.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCoEbrcgag9
"I. Zavgorodniy, arrears; Ivan Ass, arrears; Ivan Steppe, arrears; what the garbage! What are you doing here anyway?"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7hzDVzHZK
Finally, one of them stopped. "Where is Irene Fireman? We need her!"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBVSP32Svq
"Irene Fireman from Istanbul? She's not here, I think," Valentin blabbed.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrMbeZb7gR
"What the moron," Nicolas muttered.

Nicolas had been strung up on a rack. "And here we are!"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtirQVpfF5
"Rest here for now," Aidar told patting him on the shoulder.
Valentin had been stretched on a wheel.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡly8AKbBiRw
"You!" Aidar approached him and lightly poked him in the stomach with a torch.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2r4EHZabY
"There's some kind of misunderstanding here!" Valentin pleaded.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSQXMR44fWS
"And?"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUKY5G5Ma5
"We last saw her in Kazan!"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs7FoFZaFoX
"Wrong answer!" Aidar said and Tamerlane turned the wheel a little.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsPl69JEzlP
"Ay ay!" Valentin screamed.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlabYxbEJAh
"If you keep wind yourself up like that, you won't live to see the next morning!" Aidar told him.
***
A young Tatar burst into the hall, "They signed! They signed it!" He screamed dancing.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpAP3342iAB
"Who signed? What signed? What's the rush?"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4s2Y5sfAUz
"Muscovites have signed an agreement! Moscow is now a tributary of Khan! We restored the Horde! Now we will live together like in the Great Öz days! Crimea, Kazan, Astrakhan and Moscow forever at once!"
"This shit will never be! Astrakhan will be independent!" Valentin groaned from the wheel.176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUU9uKLCVG
"Shut up, fool!" Nicolas moaned from the rack.
"Well, you spun it all together!" Aidar frowned. "And what's next? Baby don't waste my time!"176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaSp1yutQD
"Khan ordered to retreat to Ryazan."176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhf9JaRwadC
"That's the deal!" Aidar pointed to Valentin. "We'll take this fat man with us, give him to Lady Camilla, show that we tried to find that damn Irene."
They took Valentine off the wheel, put him in a bag and dragged him out into the street. Nicolas they left hanging on the rack.
