Tolstoy with orders to return the prince and bring him to St. Petersburg. A common version ascribes to Rumyantsev involvement in the death of the prince (1718); however, the document, which is a letter from Rumyantsev to a certain Titov or Tatishchev describing the murder, is a fake.

An excerpt characterizing Rumyantsev, Alexander Ivanovich

“I beg you, do not be angry with Isidora. That won't help now... This happened sometimes. We are not gods, we are people... And we also have the right to make mistakes. I understand your pain and your bitterness... My family also died because of someone else's mistake. Even simpler than this one. It's just that this time someone's "gift" fell into very dangerous hands. We will try to fix it somehow. But we can't yet. You must leave. You have no right to die.
- Oh no, you're wrong, Sever! I have every right if it will help me rid the Earth of this viper! I shouted indignantly.
- Will not help. Unfortunately, nothing will help you, Isidora. Leave. I will help you return home... You have already lived your Destiny here, you can return Home.
“Where is my House?” I asked in surprise.
- It's far away... In the constellation Orion there is a star with the wonderful name Asta. This is your House, Isidora. Just like mine.
I looked at him in shock, unable to believe it. Not even understand such a strange news. It did not fit in my inflamed head into any real reality and it seemed that I, like Caraffa, was gradually losing my mind ... But the North was real, and it certainly did not seem that he was joking. Therefore, somehow gathering myself, I already asked much more calmly:
- How did it happen that Caraffa found you? Does he have a Gift?
No, he doesn't have Dar. But he has a Mind that serves him admirably. So he used it to find us. He read about us in a very old chronicle, which he did not know how and where he got it from. But he knows a lot, trust me. He has some amazing source from which he draws his knowledge, but I do not know where he comes from, and where this source can be found in order to secure him.
- Oh, don't worry! But I am very well aware of this! I know this "source"! .. This is his marvelous library, in which the oldest manuscripts are stored in myriads. For them, I think, Caraffa needs his long Life ... - I felt sad to death and wanted to cry like a child ... - How can we destroy him, Sever ?! He has no right to live on earth! He is a monster that will take millions of lives if left unchecked! What do we do?
“Nothing to you, Isidora. You just have to leave. We'll find a way to get rid of him. It just takes time.
- And during this time, innocent people will die! No, Sever, I will only leave when I have no choice. And as long as he is, I will fight. Even if there is no hope.
My daughter will be brought to you, take care of her. I can't save her...
His luminous figure became completely transparent. And she started to disappear.
- I'll be back, Isidora. whispered a gentle voice.
“Goodbye, Sever...” I answered just as quietly.
– But, how so?! Stella suddenly exclaimed. “You didn’t even ask about the planet you came from?!.. Weren’t you interested?! How so?..
To be honest, I, too, could hardly resist not to ask Isidora about the same! Her essence came from outside, and she didn’t even ask about it! .. But to some extent, I probably understood her, since it was too terrible a time for her, and she was mortally afraid for those whom she loved very much, and whom still trying to save. Well, and the House - it could be found later, when there was no other choice but to leave as soon as possible ...
“No, honey, I didn’t ask, not because I wasn’t interested. But because then it was not so important, somehow, that wonderful people were dying. And they died in brutal torments, which were allowed and supported by one person. And he had no right to exist on our land. This was the most important thing. Everything else could be left for later.
Stella blushed, ashamed of her outburst, and quietly whispered:
– Forgive me, please, Isidora...
And Isidora has already "gone" into her past again, continuing her amazing story...
As soon as the North disappeared, I immediately tried to mentally call my father. But for some reason he didn't respond. This alarmed me a little, but, not expecting anything bad, I tried again - there was still no answer ...
Deciding not to give free rein to my inflamed imagination for the time being and leaving my father alone for the time being, I plunged into sweet and sad memories of Anna's recent visit.
I still remembered the smell of her fragile body, the softness of her thick black hair and the extraordinary courage with which my wonderful twelve-year-old daughter met her evil fate. I was incredibly proud of her! Anna was a fighter, and I believed that no matter what happened, she would fight to the end, to her last breath.
I did not yet know if I would be able to save her, but I swore to myself that I would do everything in my power to save her from the tenacious clutches of the cruel Pope.
Caraffa returned a few days later, somehow very upset and taciturn. He only showed me with his hand that I should follow him. I obeyed.
After passing several long corridors, we found ourselves in a small office, which (as I found out later) was his private reception room, to which he very rarely invited guests.
Caraffa silently pointed to a chair for me and slowly sat down opposite. His silence seemed ominous and, as I already knew from my own sad experience, never boded well. I, after meeting with Anna, and the unexpected arrival of the North, unforgivably relaxed, “lulled” to some extent my usual vigilance, and missed the next blow ...
“I have no time for pleasantries, Isidora. You will answer my questions or someone else will suffer greatly. So, I advise you to answer!
Caraffa was angry and irritated, and to argue with him at such a time would be real madness.
“I will try, Your Holiness. What do you want to know?
– Your youth, Isidora? How did you receive it? After all, you are thirty-eight years old, but you look twenty and do not change. Who gave you your youth? Answer!
I couldn’t understand what so enraged Karaffa? .. During our already quite long acquaintance, he never screamed and very rarely lost control of himself. Now I was talking to an enraged, pissed-off person from whom one could expect anything.
Answer, madonna! Or you will be waiting for another, very unpleasant surprise.
From such a statement, my hair began to stir ... I understood that it would not be possible to try to evade the question. Something greatly angered Caraffa, and he did not try to hide it. He did not accept the game, and he was not going to joke. It remained only to answer, blindly hoping that he would accept the half-truth ...
- I am a hereditary Witch, Holiness, and today - the most powerful of them. Youth came to me by inheritance, I did not ask for it. Just like my mother, my grandmother, and the rest of the line of Witches in my family. You must be one of us, Your Holiness, to receive this. Besides, be the most worthy.
- Nonsense, Isidora! I knew people who themselves achieved immortality! And they weren't born with it. So there are ways. And you will open them for me. Trust me.
He was absolutely right... There were ways. But I was not going to open them to him for no reason. Not for any torture.
“Forgive me, Your Holiness, but I cannot give you what I did not receive myself. It's impossible - I don't know how. But your God, I think, would give you “eternal life” on our sinful earth, if he believed that you deserve it, right? ..
Caraffa turned purple and hissed angrily, like a poisonous snake ready to attack:
– I thought you were smarter, Isidora. Well, it won't take long for me to break you when you see what I have in store for you...
And abruptly grabbing my hand, he roughly dragged me down into his terrifying basement. I didn’t even have time to get scared, as we ended up at the same iron door, behind which, quite recently, my unfortunate tortured husband, my poor good Girolamo, died so brutally ... And suddenly a terrible, chilling conjecture slashed my brain - father !!! That's why he didn't answer my repeated call!.. He was probably seized and tortured in the same basement, standing in front of me, breathing with rage, a fiend who "cleansed" any target with someone else's blood and pain!..
“No, not that! Please, not this!!!" my wounded soul screamed like an animal cry. But I already knew that it was exactly like this... “Someone help me!!! Someone!”... But for some reason no one heard me... And did not help...

But there are happy people who manage to slip between all punishing hands ... In the style of "I left my grandmother, and I left my grandfather."
There was such Alexander Ivanovich Rumyantsev under Peter the Great.

The captain of the guard, he entered the political arena when the emperor needed a loyal man to pick out the hated heir from the German Empire, where he was hiding with his dead wife's uncle, Emperor Charles VI. Pyotr Andreevich Tolstoy, a Privy Councilor (a statesman in the role of a minister) was sent for official negotiations with Viennese high-ranking persons (his direct descendants, by the way, were 3 writers: Lev Nikolaevich, Alexei Konstantinovich and Alexei Nikolaevich Tolstoy). Captain Rumyantsev was given to Tolstoy for such actions that it was indecent for him to commit himself. As you know, Tolstoy and Rumyantsev completed their mission quite successfully: they bribed everyone around up to the Viceroy of Naples, intimidated Alexei and his mistress Euphrosyne, and promised him forgiveness. The prince gave up and went home. In Moscow, he abdicated and received his father's forgiveness on the condition that he would extradite his accomplices. It is clear that his father deceived him: he was not going to forgive him. For the sake of formality, he gathered a whole council of judges, 127 of whom signed the death sentence for the prince. Although most of them were somehow involved in the "conspiracy of Alexei."

Contemporaries have repeatedly noted that the "conspiracy of Alexei" belonged to the category of intention and was far from being executed. However, Peter wanted to get rid of the unloved heir for the sake of the children of his beloved Catherine. And he didn't care how to do it.
Most likely, the prince died without enduring the consequences of torture, but this cannot be said with complete certainty, because according to another version, he was secretly executed in the Peter and Paul Fortress. In the middle of the XIX century. lists of letters from A.I. Rumyantsev to no one D.I. Titov, which described how the author of the letter, together with P.A. Tolstoy, I.I. Buturlin and A.I. Ushakov, on the direct instructions of the tsar, they killed Tsarevich Alexei in the fortress, strangling him with pillows. N.G. Ustryalov published this letter along with other documents on the case of Tsarevich Alexei, but he convincingly proved that it was fake. However, versions of a secret execution cannot be ruled out.

So. When Rumyantsev so successfully helped Peter get rid of his hated son, his affairs went uphill. He urgently jumps to Kazan to recruit ship carpenters and build 15 genebots; then, with the rank of major of the guard, he rushes to England, from there - as ambassador to Sweden, with which peace has just been signed; then to the Caspian Sea to storm Derbent. And suddenly Peter marries him to the noblest and richest beauty Marina Andreevna Matveeva (who most likely was his mistress: Peter I not only had a great disposition towards M. A. Matveeva, but was also jealous of her others to the point that once he even punished her personally for being too bold with someone else and threatened her that he would give her in marriage to a man who would be able to keep her strict and not allow her to have lovers, except for him alone. Maria Andreevna until the end of his life and was even jealous of her, which happened to him infrequently. Wanting someone to keep the young countess "in tight rein", the sovereign married the 19-year-old Matveeva to his beloved batman Alexander Ivanovich Rumyantsev ... ”(Vel. Prince Nikolai Mikhailovich)
Following this, she gave birth to three daughters. In 1725, her husband was in Constantinople, and then on the Persian border for disengagement, while Marina remained in Moscow, where she gave birth to a fourth child, a son baptized in honor of Tsar Peter Alexandrovich, who was destined to become a famous commander - count and field marshal Rumyantsev-Zadunaisky. Grand Duke Nikolai Mikhailovich reports that the boy’s father was not his legal spouse, but Peter himself, Valishevsky agrees with the same legend.
In those years, the journey from Constantinople to St. Petersburg was very long, and Rumyantsev saw the future commander only 5.5 years later, a month after the news of her son, Catherine informed the ambassador that Peter had died. The Empress favored Rumyantsev, but after 2.5 years, Peter II, the son of Tsarevich Alexei, was in her place. Menshikov was exiled removed from stakes and gallows executed 10 years ago close associates of the prince, and Pyotr Andreevich Tolstoy himself was arrested and already exiled to Solovki, where he died. Rumyantsev survived alone, because he sat out safely in Turkey. Then, already under Anna Ioannovna, he returned home, pacified the Bashkirs, uncovered a conspiracy in Ukraine (he did it very cunningly: he invited the Cossack elders with their wives, which was new, had an affectionate conversation, learned everything that was needed, then arrested everyone who was needed) .
There was a moment when Biron wanted to take him, but right from under arrest he was sent to govern the Kazan province, and from there - "to fight the Turks."
Then Peter's daughter Elizaveta appeared on the throne, who began to collect the surviving "chicks of Petrov's nest": Rumyantsev was sent to make a new peace with the Swedes, after which he was made a senator, promoted in rank, endowed with new villages. In 1749, at the age of 70, he died quietly and safely.
It was as if he was born in a shirt and with a golden spoon in his mouth!
