As the contradiction between the rule of the noble faction and the citizens of the third estate at the grassroots level deepened, the Jacobins, a national revolutionary party that Briand knew and was extremely powerful in his heart, gradually appeared on the political scene of France, and even occupied an extremely important position in the hearts of the grassroots people.

The Jacobins are still just the embryonic state of a modern political party, which means that they are still not very strong. Of course, they did not appear in France for a long time, only a few years, or they would not have waited until 1792 to actually get rid of the Bourbons and establish the First French Republic.

However, even if their wings are not yet full, Brion does not underestimate them in the slightest, after all, the power of the revolution is terrifying. Previously, he had absolutely no chance of winning the battle against the entrenched Bourbons. And now, in the face of such a slowly growing revolutionary party, Brion is still no opponent. And the only thing he can do is keep himself safe.

As for the present Jacobins, according to the memories of Brion's previous life, this party should have consisted of a large number of bourgeois politicians of different political aspirations. Of course, young people are also a large part of it, which also gives the party a lot of vitality. Also in this party there were four revolutionary factions: the liberal aristocracy represented by Mirabeau and Lafayette, the constitutional big bourgeoisie represented by the brothers of the big banker and farmer Theodore Lamet, the industrial and commercial bourgeoisie represented by Brissot, and the democratic bourgeoisie represented by Robespierre, Saint-Just, and Courton.

Although the whole Jacobin faction is now united in the French Revolution, this is only on the surface, and in fact the internal division is slowly beginning to begin. Although the various factions within the Jacobins were bourgeois factions, the political measures they wanted to implement in France were different. This is an inevitable divergence.

However, over time, a more serious disadvantage appeared, Robespierre's faction dominated the Jacobins, almost suppressing the claims of the various factions, so that it caused discontent from Brissot and others, which was also an important reason for the later split in the Jacobins.

According to later history, the Jacobins would split into the Girondists, led by Brissot, the Feuillonists, led by Barnaf, and the Montacrytes, who would shine in French politics. Of course, this is also something that will be said later, because due to the gradual maturation of the internal political direction of the Jacobins, disagreements and divisions are inevitable.

At that time, the whole of France will become a battleground for the various parties under the banner of the Jacobins, of course, until the fruits of the Revolution are ripe.

Of course, the Jacobins are still very weak now, and even the struggle against the aristocratic factions that have been entrenched in France for many years is a little difficult. Similarly, in the city of Lyon, the weak Jacobins were helpless and even felt hopeless of the revolution. Briand, on the other hand, opened the door at this time and showed sympathy for the French Revolution, which attracted great attention from the French Revolutionary Party.

Of course, because the influence of the French Revolution has not really been promoted by the grassroots and the people, in order to allow the political system of the French Revolution to enter the city of Lyon early, it has become the primary headache of the French revolutionary party. However, after receiving this signal, the confidence of the French revolutionary party was rekindled.

In order to coincide with the advent of the French Revolution as soon as possible, even the aristocratic class, which was in a state of contradiction with itself, the French revolutionaries could still put aside this class contradiction for the time being. In this way, Briand's important position in the city of Lyon, coupled with the deliberate proximity of the revolutionaries, made the Marquis de Condorcet very reasonable.

Of course, the Central Committee of the Revolutionary Party has not yet expressed its attitude towards Briand, and Condorcet's co-optation at this time is indeed somewhat overstepping its authority. However, Condorcet knew that his boss Brissot would definitely support his approach, but Robespierre was a little too extreme for the royal party.

The time had come on July 5th, the deadline for the French Revolution was approaching, and the hatred of feudalism that had accumulated for centuries in the hearts of the people was about to be vented like a volcanic eruption.

And on the morning of that day, Brion welcomed a very strange but distinguished guest at his mansion in the city of Lyon, undoubtedly the Marquis de Condorcet. Although he was a declining nobleman and a member of the revolutionary party, the title of marquis still existed on his body.

Of course, his marquis is indeed a heaven and an earth compared to the duke of Brion, after all, Brion is already the king of a country and has the supreme right to rule the city of Lyon. Although it is not fair, the unspoken rules are undoubtedly the most powerful.

Condorcet and Brion did not know each other, and in terms of their strength, they were extremely small. So this time, with a demanding attitude, Condorcet did not consider showing off his marquis status, so it was only an old carriage that arrived at the Brion mansion. It is precisely because of the simplicity of travel that no one pays too much attention to the people in the carriage. The people thought it was some new officer who had come to visit, but if they knew it was a marquis, they would have been shocked.

To tell the truth, Condorcet did not have the resources to support the grand trip to the noble marquis, and he thought about it as a revolutionary to meet the noble duke.

"Excuse me... Who are you looking for?"

As soon as they saw someone coming, several well-trained guards immediately took up their military stance, and the person in charge of guarding the gate was a young lieutenant officer.

The Marquis of Condorcet looked at the richly decorated door: "I'm here to find the Duke of Brion. ”

Looking at this man who traveled simply, but really looked like a nobleman, the officer couldn't help frowning. In Europe, shouting high-ranking nobles must bring the title of nobleman, so as to reflect the respect for the nobles, but it is extremely impolite to call the name of the nobleman directly, of course, there is no such thing in later generations.

Condorcet was also an aristocrat, and of course he understood this, and he could not compare to Brion in terms of status. He also called it this way to be able to bring the two closer to each other, and at the same time to improve his own status.

"Excuse me, are you。。。。。 The officer asked.

Condorcet nodded humbly: "I forgot to introduce myself, I am the Marquis of Condorcet, and I hope to visit the Duke of Baden this time." ”

"The Marquis... The officer looked at the man in front of him seriously, but no matter how he could have imagined that the nobles who came to visit the ruler of Lyon would never dress like this, let alone behave like this. But when the thought of Brion usually looked, the officers were a little unsurprising.

The officer was a wise man, and in Brion's usual habits, the officer had heard of it, and no matter what the status of the nobleman was, he would be brought into the palace first. Moreover, this so-called nobleman is alone, and he will not pose much threat to Brion.

In any case, there is Brion to judge, and the rest has nothing to do with itself.

"Lord Marquis, please, the Duke is not in the mansion yet, so I have to wait for a long time. "The officer gave a gentlemanly and elegant courtesy to the nobility.

With a slight nod, Condorcet had already walked into Brion's mansion with a soldier. This mansion was bought by Brion from a nobleman for a lot of money, and its interior decoration is extremely luxurious, and it is incomparable to the Anthony family's mansion.

However, Brion is based at Baden Castle and occasionally returns to Marc Castle to live. Except for important political affairs, it is not common to return to live in the city of Lyon. After all, the Duchy of Baden is its own old territory, and there are basically no accidents with its own thousands of guards guarding it, so this luxurious mansion is basically of little use, just as Brion's palace in Lyon.

But you still have to use it, otherwise there will be dust in such a large empty place?

Brion had moved the meeting hall of the Chamber of Commerce of Lyon City to this place before, and it can be said that it had become Brion's small court in the commercial empire, and every merchant had to grovel to him and obey him. And Gribois, who was the commercial spokesperson of Briand, also followed Brion's instructions and lived in this mansion in order to better handle business affairs.

For Gribois, he has been busy for some time. Not only did he have to take over and manage the newly built military factory in Lyon, but he was also in charge of the Banque de France, the Ambrera Group and its various industries, which were originally in charge of MacDonald.

And the most gratifying thing for Brion is that Ferguson has made some new technological breakthroughs in the development of firearms, and it can be said that the third generation of Ferguson rifles is just around the corner, so the military technology of Brian's army will continue to surpass that of European countries. However, the most powerful thing is the innovation of the cannon, and Ferguson is also planning for this one.

The maids also hurriedly withdrew after the minimum ceremonial reception, and as for Brion's itinerary, none of the soldiers could know about it, so the guards went to inform Gribeaure, who remained in the city of Lyon, first. After all, he is now the supreme leader here, and the various cronies of the Brion Group are not there, and the right to be in charge of the business of Lyon City is enough to stand up and deal with some of the affairs temporarily.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. You must be the Marquis de Condorcet. After waiting for almost ten minutes, Gribois hurried over.

Gribovis did not think too much about the identity of this marquis, but it was precisely because of this turbulent time that the visitation of this marquis was even more suspicious.

However, Gribois did not slack off in the slightest, and before the storm of French rectification foretold by Briand, every detail could be a matter of life and death for the entire group. Clearly, Gribovie had chosen the right one this time. i1387
