Chương 290: Chapter 79: Military Parade (8/12)

```

November 10th, 0400 hours, Ekaterinburg Fortress, Summer Palace.

Tsar Nicholas V questioned: "If there is a parade, will Belinsky come? He hasn't run away, has he? This guy must be thinking we'll die defending this place, like Ivan did in battle, and then he'll come to reap the rewards!"

Chief of General Staff Tukhachev glanced at Marshal Boris who had taken over as Minister of Defense after the former Commander of the Western Front Army.

Marshal Boris adjusted his glasses: "As far as we know, His Eminence the Grand Patriarch has not left Ye Fort and will participate in the parade."

"It must be a body double!" Nicholas V dismissed with a wave of his hand. "A body double! If you ask him some questions about the Secular faction and demand he interprets the scriptures, he will beat around the bush!"

"I am willing to answer any questions about the Secular faction," a deep bass voice sounded from the direction of the main entrance.
