Although Napoleon's "horizon" was ridiculed by Joseph and Lucien together, there was no force in the world today that could pose a threat to France. So Napoleon could also consider some long-term measures.

"Mencius said that if a country does not have outstanding people leading from within; If there is no strong enemy outside, then the country can easily go down the road to ruin. Well, Joseph, that's what you told me, right? "Now we have met the first condition." So, I'm going to talk to you about where we're going from here. ”

Joseph was very satisfied with Napoleon's attitude, nodded and said: "Napoleon, at the peak of honor, it is indeed good that you can still be so sober." You know, after achieving such an achievement, many people have long been so proud that they don't know the height of the sky, and they feel that they are no longer human beings, but gods. ”

Although he rarely received praise from Joseph, Napoleon looked unimpressed, and he crooked his mouth and said, "What's so difficult about this?" Am I the kind of person who gets carried away at the slightest achievement? ”

Both Joseph and Lucien watched Napoleon silently.

"Well, maybe I'm a little." Napoleon said, "But, you know, the government has not done much during this time, and I have time to go to the Academy of Sciences to take on a little of my duty." ”

Academicians of the Academy of Sciences have certain tasks such as thesis review. There are not many of them, and even if they don't, there are no coercive penalties. At most, it is just an internal circular. But for Napoleon, it was absolutely intolerable to circulate criticism of such a humiliating thing. So, Napoleon had to do his homework, well, so under normal circumstances, of course, the guys at the Masters of Paris took turns to help Napoleon, and Napoleon just had to sign his name. But after a recent free time, Napoleon, who was really interested in science, decided to do it himself.

Of course, in order to ensure that there will be no loopholes when reviewing papers, Napoleon habitually wanted to arrest Laplace on an errand, but it turned out that Laplace and Fourier were invited to give lectures in Italy, so Napoleon looked at it, it seemed that there was only Monge, but Mr. Monge has now retired because of his old age, and Napoleon felt that Monge's CPU function had probably declined significantly, and if he really wanted to help with the review, it would be better to do it himself.

In the end, Napoleon found a younger academician Gauss, although Gauss was Joseph's assistant, but because of his gentle nature, Napoleon was sure that Gauss would not tell Joseph about it.

Then Napoleon was struck to the point of doubting life. No way, Gauss is so perverted. And even more perverted than Joseph in some cases. Well, Joseph is a pervert, of course, but he's a spherical pervert, but in terms of mathematics, especially in terms of reaction speed when faced with mathematical problems, there is still a few Laplaces between him and Gauss. In many places, Napoleon had just finished reading an argument, and before he could sort out the logic of the argument in his head, Gauss had already seen the problem in the argument, or the imperfections, and proposed to revise it. As for Napoleon, after getting Gauss's revisions, it often took several hours to figure out why Gauss suggested this, as well as the whole idea and argument for doing so.

"Sometimes, I have problems that are not easy to deal with, well, that's normal, isn't it? I went to Gauss, my God, and Gauss just glanced at it and gave advice and advice. And his opinions and suggestions are always particularly insightful and exceptional...... How to say, if I can not look for Gauss, I will never go to him, that is simply destroying a person's self-confidence. Joseph, though in mathematics I am not as good as you, nor as good as Laplace and Fourier. But I don't doubt my intellect because of that, it's just that you're focusing more on it. But, but Gauss's guy is completely different, normal human beings, no, it should be said that human beings cannot complete such complex thinking in such a short time...... I even suspect that Gauss guy has probably proved the 'four-color problem' by mental arithmetic, but he can't write the whole process! Well, talk to him about math, there's a feeling of being crushed almost from another species. Therefore, I strongly recommend that Gauss's anatomy be studied if I have the chance, and I strongly suspect that he is not human! Napoleon said.

"You're right, Napoleon, I've always thought so." Joseph also sighed and said, "This guy is really ......."

"So, well, I want to think of myself as a god, but when I think about it, I have a person's thinking ability, even so powerful that I think it's incredible, if I'm a god, then what is he? Well, we'd better not talk about this pervert anyway. Let's say something happy, Lola is pregnant, and the Roman Empire has a future emperor. Napoleon said.

"Maybe it's a princess." Lucien interjected.

"Hehe, I'm happy anyway!" Napoleon decided to ignore Lucien.

"Ah, congratulations, Napoleon. Well, what are your thoughts on the future? Joseph brought the conversation back to life.

"Me? I wonder what other career in the future can surpass the glory of the present. Napoleon said.

"From now on, there will be nothing more in the war." "Unless you're going to go on an expedition to Russia," Joseph said, "or you're going to take out Turkey." ”

"Expedition to Russia, take out Turkey?" Napoleon shook his head, "Compared with the conquest of England, these two things are not so honorable - they are just beating a group of barbarians." ”

Joseph shook his head and said, "What you said is that these two things have limited benefits compared to defeating the British. The benefits of winning the war are limited, and if something goes wrong, it will be a shame. Especially in Russia, the place is too cold, and it is very difficult to develop. Financially it doesn't get along. And it is too big, our army is already different from the previous army, and the requirements for logistics are much greater than before. And the road conditions in Russia and everything are a nightmare for our army today. ”

For some purpose, Joseph also made a point of emphasizing the difficulty and unworthiness of attacking Russia.

"I know, I've had the guys in the staff make plans and study Russia a long time ago. Damn the Russians, they can't even build a road – but given the permafrost, there's really nothing we can do. Napoleon replied unconcernedly.

In order to solve the engineering problems of building roads in tundra, especially seasonal tundra, the Russians also asked the French Academy of Sciences for help. As a result, the French, after studying it, spread out their hands and said, "We have no problem with this matter."

As for the railways, the Russians had very few railroad miles and more importantly, their rails did not quite match European standards – it was also said that they were meant to be a means of defending against possible invasions from Europe.

"If the Russians try to intervene in Europe, we can easily defeat them, but invading Russia, at least for now, is a thankless fool." Napoleon finally dispelled Joseph's worries with such a sentence.

"So, militarily, in a short period of time, it can even be said that in the foreseeable time, defeating Britain is our military peak."

"And what about the political aspect?" Joseph asked again.

"Politically, the current pinnacle should be me wearing the crown of Rome, right?" Napoleon said.

"It's not." "Your current political pinnacle should be the implementation of the Civil Code," Lucien said. You know, in the history of the Roman Empire, and even in human history, there were many emperors. But there are only a handful of people who can be called 'legislators'. Especially now, all the laws in Europe, will be based on your code, so I think that in future generations, this will be the most honorable thing for you. I don't think there's anything you can do better than that. ”

Napoleon looked at Lucien, Lucien's evaluation of his code just now made him a little proud, but on the other side, he was a little suspicious, what happened to this guy today? It always makes people think that he has a little ulterior motives.

Under Napoleon's gaze, Lucien actually lowered his eyes, and even glanced at Joseph.

Napoleon looked at Joseph again, and Joseph calmly looked at Napoleon. Then, Napoleon spoke first:

"I can see that you guys are colluding, aren't you? You keep saying that we have reached the top, do you mean that you want to persuade me to retire? ”

"Yes and no." Joseph replied.

"Speak human words!" Napoleon was very dissatisfied with the authentic.

"Now is the time of France's greatest success, and the time of your prestige. After that, your approval rating can only go down, and it can't be so high. People may even blame you for possible economic problems in the future. You know, I'm telling the truth. Joseph looked at Napoleon and said, "So at this time, if you say in high spirits that you are going to retire, in order to guarantee democracy in France, to guarantee that she will always be a republic." Then you are not only a great man in politics, but even a saint in virtue. It's a symbol of the whole French spirit, and in a sense, you're really a god. Anything that is politically different from your opinion will be considered sacred, and even the whole world will feel that it is sacred, so even if you retire, no one will dare to go against your will. Your presence still looms over France, and even the world. After that, the government's policy has succeeded, and the people will praise you; If the policy fails, it will definitely be the person who will take over your shift. Therefore, your retreat is not far from power, but just holding power behind the scenes. And turning behind the scenes, Napoleon, this is the way for our family that we have long since determined. ”

"But...... But I think I can continue to do it for another term. Napoleon said.

"Napoleon, continue to work for another term, are you sure that when you retire, you will still have such glory?" Lucien interjected again.

"I have to think about it, besides, Lucien, speaking of the original plan of the family, according to the plan, at this time, you should also have a legal heir, but you don't even have a legal wife......" Napoleon roared angrily.
