Napoleon III had no objection to the award of a knighthood, after all, he had only previously bestowed the title of Count of the poor general Montauban, although some French parliamentarians strongly objected to the knighthood, and they retorted eloquently, "The battle of the Sobali Bridge was a ridiculous battle, and the French army had only 12 men killed." Montauban is not worthy of a knighthood at all. “

However, Napoleon III, remembering that his son had just returned to France from the Old Summer Palace and had been assassinated by the mysterious revolutionaries, passed the decision by consensus, because the reward was more of a consolation to Montauban.

The reward for Gallian was a remedy made by Napoleon III for his indebtedness.

If the Paris government could find out the truth of the rumors in the first place, it would not force Garion to leave London.

"Rewarding Garion with the title of a baron, coupled with the title of member of the Académie Française, the two chips offered should make him happy. Well, it's up to you to arrange these things, Mathilde, it's not convenient for the Paris government to come forward, and we don't intend to settle these matters through diplomatic means. ”

"Leave it to me, I'll arrange it. But I fear that the members of Congress will oppose the granting of the title of Callian as much as they oppose Montauban. ”

The princess expressed her scruples, and since the Bonapartes had agreed to concessions, the members of the Parliament had become more and more arrogant.

"I'll take care of it, don't worry."

Napoleon III stood up and looked out of his offices at the Tuileries Palace, just in time to see the flowers beneath the bell tower. He also sensed that unconditional concessions would only make the bastards of the Palais Bourbon hungry and that it was time to let them know what he had decided to do, and no one could change it.

Sure enough, the enemy was in the Bourbon Palace, and what he agreed, the parliamentarians would oppose it, and if he objected, the parliamentarians began to oppose it again. So after the official meeting of the Palais Bourbon, Napoleon III intended to make a fuss about it. If the parliamentarians don't agree, he'll cut the bastards.

"Be quiet, gentlemen."

Napoleon III, who was standing on the stage, waved his hand, signaling the departing councillors to stay for the time being. The MPs who had stood up to get up and leave stopped them and waited for Napoleon III's next instructions.

The huge Palais Bourbon was silent, and some people looked at Napoleon III with unfriendly eyes, but their faces had to hide a look of great respect and longing. Some even wanted to curse his family to death.

"Oh, it's a terrible Black Wednesday, what is he going to do? Hasn't the poor council of Bourbon been tortured enough? What did he do when he set up a congress, if he just raised his hand to vote, dogs could do it, so why did he want people to do it? ”

Another muffled voice whispered, "Who knows? The last time it was suddenly announced that he was going to confer the title of Count of Montauban, do you remember the councilor Victor, who opposed him at that time? ”

"Victor, what's wrong with him?"

"Tut-tut, poor Victor was forced to resign from his position as a member of parliament, and then went to jail on charges of embezzlement. All of this is thanks to His Majesty. ”

"Shhh

The whispered discussion was interrupted by loud voices, and in spite of the resentment in their hearts, they feigned a look of great anticipation to hear what bad news the "little Napoleon" was about to announce.

"I'm announcing a message now."

Napoleon III faced a group of unconvinced bastards, and said calmly, "I will add another knighthood to Garion, who has made outstanding contributions to the empire." ”

"I chose to announce this matter to you today just to let everyone know that I am not here to ask for your opinion. I'm here to announce this news directly to you. Shut up if you agree, raise your hand if you don't, of course, I don't want to see the same situation as last time, accusing me to my face that I shouldn't give Lord Montauban the title of Count! ”

Napoleon III's hard-line stance frightened the rest of the room, and at first responded with only calm.

The parliamentarians, who soon came to their senses, expressed their opinions.

Wise, absolutely wise.

For the first time, the Republican legislators saw the practice of adding officials to the enemies of the Empire. Before, they thought that it was enough for Garian to be alive in Paris, but they didn't expect that instead of dying, he rose all the way up.

They don't even understand the situation in Paris anymore.

"Oh, Your Majesty, you misunderstood, we have no idea of opposing this decision at all, this decision you have made is really too wise."

The first parliamentarian to echo looked around at the silent others, and suddenly they began to echo Napoleon's decision.

Praise my emperor.

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty is wise, and we think that this person is fully qualified to be knighted to the Baron. He is talented and loyal to Paris, and we all think very highly of this young man. It's just ......."

The word-poor parliamentarian didn't know what to say for a while, but fortunately, the person next to him added in time, "It's simply the hope for the future of French literature." He is the Shakespeare of France! What is Hugo who defected? In the future, the whole of France will revolve around him! ”

"Yes, yes, Your Majesty's decision is too wise."

There were echoes of praise all around, surrounding Napoleon III on the podium, making him a little fluttery.

Napoleon III hesitated and said, "You ......"

"Yes, we all agree with His Majesty's decision to confer the title of Baron Garion."

This proposal was unanimously adopted. Even Napoleon himself was surprised before, thinking that his authority was finally recognized by everyone at this moment.

It wasn't until eight years later that he realized that the folly he had done that day was nothing more than republican termites hollowing out the beginning of his empire.

Complacency and pride were engraved on Napoleon III's face, but the Republican parliamentarians thought the opposite, although it was not clear why Napoleon III had made such a stupid choice, and that in doing so he had created an enemy for himself internally.

There have long been rumors that there is an inseparable relationship between Garion and the Revolutionary Party, but the Paris government has repeatedly stated that there is no problem with this person. The ministers, who originally wanted to advise Napoleon III, were afraid of offending this invisible "court red" and did not dare to speak. As for the guys who dare to question it, they are also refuted by the article analyzing Germany and Paris.

Some people think that Napoleon III wanted to establish an image close to the people, and some people think that he played a big game in the dark, but the vast majority of people still think that Napoleon III was confused and rushed to the doctor.

There's nothing more stupid than propping up a gravedigger.

Not everyone can scold Napoleon III while rising step by step, and the history of Galion's rise to fame is unique and cannot be replicated.

And the gravedigger of the empire, carrying the nails of his coffin, will return from London to Paris.
