The author is going on a blind date again (for the fourth time), and he will come back and update it

As the feast drew to a close, Lady Agatha and Conan Doyle's show of affection made them feel bored, and the literati were so dismissive that everyone had come to see the quarrel, only to find that they had been fed dog food all night. Anyone will feel a little uncomfortable in their hearts.

It was originally a party that was neither salty nor light, and the literati of London knew each other well, except that they wanted to see the battle between the two newcomers. It didn't turn out as expected.

After the feast, Garion pretended to invite Baranchi home, and after a half-push and half-push, and amid the envious and hateful eyes of the crowd, she stepped into the carriage and waved goodbye to those who were also eager to send her home.

The carriage soon disappeared into the night, and the man with a smile on his face gradually retracted his expression, and the corners of his mouth were filled with disdainful disgust.

After getting into the carriage, Balanchi finally took a deep breath, unloaded his previous deliberate expression, and replaced it with a relaxed demeanor. She grabbed Garion's arm and coquettishly asked, "How?" Honey, is my performance okay? ”

"Okay."

Garian holds a heather pipe, and since arriving in London, he has become more and more of an English man in his dress and demeanor. After thinking for a moment, he decided to confess to Madame Balanchi about the possibility of revealing the truth, "One thing must be told to you, there are already people in Paris who know our whereabouts. Perhaps it won't be long before the secrets hidden in London will be known to others. I don't know yet the attitude of the Government of Paris and the situation of you, Sir Fred, so don't act rashly yet. ”

Madame Balanchi's face changed, her fists clenched, she never wanted to go back to the dark days of the past. Taking a deep breath, he asked slowly, "I'm not going to be caught, am I?" ”

Garion reached out and squeezed her palm, reassuring, "No, no one can take you into a cage, I will protect you." ”

Balanchi's heart trembled, squeezed out a smile, and nodded seriously.

Far away in London, they didn't know that because of Garion, Sir Fred had lost his former glory and plummeted.

After finding out that this was not a political incident against the Bonapartes, Sir Fred was acquitted, but he was stripped of his title of nobility on charges of defamation, and the royal family of Bonaparte declared that they would never have any business dealings with him. When Fred lost power, his former business partners left and started anew.

When business went down, Sir Fred frantically searched for Garion's whereabouts, and the man who betrayed him and broke the dog man and woman to pieces.

Because Garion not only caused him to be imprisoned for more than half a month, he was beaten all over his body, and even now he is on the verge of bankruptcy.

At this moment, Sir Fred's annoyance can be imagined. He has even issued a wanted warrant that if anyone can provide Galian's exact whereabouts, he will pay them 10,000 francs!

When everything is clear, Princess Mathilde is also looking for Garian's whereabouts, and wants to return him to Paris as soon as possible.

When the bad news from Prussia came true one after another, Napoleon III finally could not sit still. Since last year, Garion has predicted that William IV, who is in poor health, will most likely die in 1861, and the regent will be crowned king, and he has begun to unite General Ron with Bismarck's military reform.

Later, his prediction came true, and it was not much different from the analysis in the article. Napoleon III's think tank also believed that Prussia, although it had ambitions to unify Europe, did not have the strength.

Finally, this conceit, brought about by pride, exploded at a meeting. Eugène, the newly appointed ambassador-counsellor to Berlin, also said eloquently, "Although Prussia is now undergoing military reform, we still have the status of the largest power in Europe. It doesn't matter, we have a large corps force and should be able to withstand the attack. ”

Napoleon, with a gloomy face, took Garion's analysis and asked, "Then do you take into account our scattered forces in the colonies?" Did you take into account the short-term mobilization of Prussia? If Prussia's military reform succeeds and they suddenly attack, will our current forces be able to resist it? ”

"It is impossible for them to attack suddenly......"

Napoleon raised his voice and asked sharply, "If they do attack, will our native troops be able to resist it?" Excellency! ”

Eugène was silent for a moment, judging from the apparent data, Germany had formed a certain threat, but what could comfort France was still the victory in the Crimean War ten years ago, and the spiritual inspiration left by the Napoleonic myth. From a practical point of view, if France does not want to forge ahead, it is very likely that it will be in an even more dangerous situation in the future.

Now France is not a power crushing force on the European continent, and competitors are rising rapidly.

He had already made it clear that the German threat was being made, and the gang was still fooling themselves with the previous set, Napoleon III took a deep breath and said slowly, "The French ambassador to Berlin, Steven, and the counselor Eugène stay, and the others will go out first."

The generals standing around looked at each other, but still walked out of the door according to the emperor's orders, and consciously closed the door.

There were only three people left in the dimly lit room, and after a brief silence, Napoleon III slammed his hand on the oak table, and the sudden outburst startled everyone else around him.

Napoleon III's face was bruised, and he said angrily, "Are the people around me stupid? Even a writer can see through Germany's intentions, and you are still comforting yourself? On the surface, we are being quickly caught up! Even you think tanks don't see it! It's all a bunch of stupid pigs! ”

Steven apologized to Napoleon III in horror, "I'm sorry, Führer, but we've done our best!" ”

Napoleon III paced back and forth, angry. Originally, I wanted the think tank to find corresponding countermeasures according to the situation, but I didn't expect these people to fool themselves, thinking that it would be absolutely fine.

Is it really stupid to be an emperor?

Thinking of this, Napoleon III became even more annoyed, and continued to curse angrily, "These fools are the scum of the French people!" There is no sense of honor at all, calling himself a think tank, having spent several years in institutions of higher learning, only learned how to eat with a knife and fork! ”

The vitriolic scolding continued.

"These fools, like the Republicans, will only thwart my movements, and all they do is pull me back, and I should have put all the fools to death, just like Richelieu! I led the revolution eight years ago with an officer, and although I did not conquer Europe, I made the whole continent dare not oppose Paris! You traitors, I have been deceived from the beginning! An unforgivable betrayal of the French people! ”

The think tank was scolded bloody, but they didn't dare to refute it at all.

Napoleon III was out of breath with a curse, and he sat down in his chair and began to miss the young man in Les Invalides who analyzed the situation in Europe with him. So far, except for Bismarck's prophecy of becoming prime minister, which has not yet been fulfilled, all other previous prophecies have been fulfilled.

Rubbish.

raised a bunch of self-proclaimed experts, and as a result, none of them could compare to peasants from other provinces!

Napoleon III stood up abruptly, left behind a few people, and walked towards the door. He opened the door, looked at the people in the hallway who didn't dare to speak, and shook his head. He's starting to miss Garian.

At this time, Princess Mathilde also heard the news, and she stood in the corridor, looking at the emperor's lost expression, not knowing how to comfort her cousin.

Napoleon III looked at her, sighed, and said, "Find a way to get him back." ”

"I'm running out of people."
