No one knows what was discussed in the middle of the banquet, and historians can only deduce from the clues and historical events found in Victoria's diary that the meeting between Palmerston and Prince Albert may have been the beginning of a series of major events in the future.

And the protagonists of the big event are not only Prince Albert and Palmerston, it will be like a whirlpool that completely engulfs the whole of Europe.

……

Time flies, and the sun and the moon fly by.

In the blink of an eye, it was April 30th, and the day was dark.

In the early morning, thick clouds hung over the whole city of London, and from time to time a light blue arc of electricity could be seen in the dark oppressive clouds to illuminate London, followed by a deafening thunderstorm, and a rainstorm seemed to be about to fall on London.

Seven days had passed since Jérôme arrived in London. During these seven days, Jérôme and Dr. James did everything they could to keep Napoleon III alive as fragile as a firefly.

From intravenous injections to enemas to opium [opium was effective in relieving pain and was the most effective anesthetic and tranquilizer in the 19th century. However, opiate patients inevitably become addicts! The United Kingdom, a major opium country, also has the largest number of addicts in Europe. Of course, opium smoking is also in some ways a huge contribution to the UK's tax revenues. 】。

In short, Dr. Jérôme and Dr. James used all the methods they knew and could use in the medical profession to treat cholera. Napoleon's body, but Louis. Napoleon's health, however, was still getting worse day by day.

The inevitable failure of organs made Louis. Napoleon even breathed as a luxury, and unextracted salicylic acid could no longer suppress the high fever brought about by cholera.

Under the double torture of high fever and organ failure, Louis. Bonaparte's body was even worse day by day.

In just half a month, Louis. Napoleon's arms had been emaciated to the point of skinny and bones, and his abdomen was slightly watery.

The clear and sharp eyes that once seemed to be able to see through everything have also become cloudy.

"Ah...... Kill me...... Yes! My God! Save your child! "Louis under double torture. Napoleon wailed in agony, and the iron-clad man who had been through the rain of bullets in Italy could not bear this pain.

"It's going to be fine! Louie, it's going to be fine! "Sitting Louis. Miss Howard, beside Napoleon, clasped her hands and made a prayer gesture with teary eyes at Louis. Napoleon reassured.

Miss Howard's reassurance did not impress Louis. Napoleon calmed down, still groaning in pain: "Kill me...... I don't want to go on like this anymore! Kill me! ”

Seeing this, Howard could only keep shaking his head, how could she, a weak woman, do something murderous.

Seeing that he could not plead with Howard to end his life, Louie. Napoleon turned to Jérôme, who was concocting salicylic acid. Bonaparte.

Louis lying on the bed. Napoleon wrote Jérôme in a voice that was almost pleading. Bonaparte: "Cousin...... My dear cousin...... Come here! ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte turned to look at Louis. Napoleon, with a hint of pity and forbearance in his eyes.

Compared to Jean Louis. Napoleon received the torture of illness, and it was better to let him die.

But Jérôme. Bonaparte also could not bear the charge of murder, and the most important thing was that his cousin was still the leader of the Bonaparte family.

The charge of killing the leader was a felony that Jérôme could hardly bear.

If Jérôme helped Louis. If Napoleon's utter relief was discovered, the French fellows would never mind throwing sewage on him.

At that time, the illegitimate children who hovered on the periphery of the Bonaparte family and the opponents within the Bonaparte family (the opponents were mainly in the line of Napoleon's eldest brother Joseph. Definitely will "show up".

Not to mention becoming president, if they don't make a fuss, they will have to transnational law enforcement and send Jérôme to a prison in Strasbourg.

"Cousin!" Jérôme slowly came to Louis. Napoleon whispered softly in the presence of Louis. Napoleon muttered in his ear: "I know you are in pain!" I also know that you want to be free, but I really can't bear this charge! So for the sake of the Bonaparte family......"

Jérôme was not speaking, and for a moment he was somewhat disgusted that he had forcibly tied the glory of the Bonaparte family to a seriously ill patient, and called it for the Bonaparte family.

Louis. Napoleon hears Jérôme. Bonaparte muttered and then forced himself to wail, and slowly spat out the words "For Bonaparte".

Until now, Louie. Napoleon still did not give up on the dream of the Bonaparte family to regain the supreme power in France.

Even if he couldn't make it to the throne, he would be underground watching this cousin who had followed him all the way to the throne.

Thinking of this, Louie. Napoleon stretched out his trembling hand and wanted to give Jérôme. Bonaparte encouraged Louis when his hand was less than a thumb's width away from Jérôme's shoulder. Napoleon slowly withdrew his hand, he did not want to pass on his illness to Jérôme.

Jérôme. With tears in his eyes, Bonaparte returned to the table where salicylic acid was concocted.

The clock ticked to 10 o'clock, and Dr. James reappeared at Louie. Napoleon's hospital bed.

During a routine view of Louis. After Napoleon's physical condition, Doctor James took Jérôme. Bonaparte cried out.

"According to what I have learned, Prince Louis may not live for two days now! I hope you're prepared! Dr. James's words were like a boulder in Jérôme's heart.

After Jérôme was silent for a long time, he exhaled and forced a smile: "That's fine! Cousin, he doesn't have to suffer so much! Watching him wail in pain, sometimes I really want to help him! ”

"What if...... I mean, if ......," Dr. James re-emphasized, "if Prince Louis unfortunately passes away today, you would better cremate the Prince's body as soon as possible!" I've seen many people who have contracted cholera because they wanted to preserve their bodies! ”

Jérôme nodded in understanding, and after the two men talked to the prince again, Dr. James left.

There is no treatment worth it now.

On the night of August 1848, when the heavy rain that had been brewing for a long time poured downwards as if it had received some kind of signal. The life of Napoleon (Napoleon III) was coming to an end.
