Face Jérôme. Bonaparte could not have been more fully explained, and Pessini knew that he could no longer stop his allegiance to the Prince.

His Excellency the Prince, who was stubborn, had made up his mind to go to Rome, and no words or difficulties could deter him.

Persini sighed and said, "Your Highness, I don't approve of your departure to Rome at this time in principle. If you're going to Rome, be careful. The Papal States are not as stable as they once were, and the revolutionary fervor from France has ignited the entire Apennines. If His Majesty the Pope is unwilling to carry out reforms like Sardinia, I am afraid that the entire Papal States will face an unprecedented catastrophe. ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded in agreement, believing that the wheels of history would not deviate from the course of history with the change of leaders of the Bonaparte family, and that the chariot of the 19th century under nationalist fanaticism was grinding its knives and crushing the Papal States.

The Roman Republic was established and Pius IX fled.

At that time, if he helped Pius IX to restore his kingdom as the Savior of Christ, Pius IX would have "forgiven" the Bonaparte family for what he had done before.

But before he could act as Christ the Savior, he had to go to Rome to give Pope Pius IX the greatest confidence.

In fact, Jérôme. Bonaparte did not go to Rome just to seek the papal support, even if this support was his own verbal praise, and he was "tasked with correcting" Pius IX's ideas.

Before the establishment of the Roman Republic, Pope Pius IX was a thoughtful and reformist pope, and the popes of this period carried the same hopes for the entire Apennine Peninsula as the kings of Sardinia.

However, after the March Revolution, the Pope's "inaction" disappointed many revolutionaries, and the Papal and Revolutionary factions gradually parted ways, and the conflict became apparent.

After the establishment of the Roman Republic and the escape of Pius IX from the Papal States, his ideas became increasingly radical.

When he returned to the Papal States, a reform-minded pope ceased to exist and was replaced by a conservative and radical pope.

The Pope and the Apennine masses were completely separated by that time, and the French garrison had to guard against the radicals while they were stationed in Rome.

Worse still, the Pope's ideas further influenced the clerical faction in France, and the extreme clerical faction became the bridgehead of the ultra-conservative forces, which undoubtedly dealt a fatal blow to the Bonapartist faction caught in the middle.

In order to prevent the repetition of history, Jérôme. Bonaparte had to "correct" the Pope's extremist ideas.

After all, it is the duty of the "filial son of God" to properly correct the mistakes of the Pope.

"Don't worry! I believe in Captain Letty's ability and loyalty! "Jérôme. Bonaparte patted Pesini on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "Besides, the contradictions of the Papal States have not really erupted!" ”

"When do you think they're going to break out?" Pessini asked curiously.

"It depends on when Venice and Lombardy were subjugated by the Austrian Empire!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied without thinking.

He remembers that after the first defeat of the Sardinian coalition led by the "Italian" coalition, the Papal States, unwilling to continue the war, were retracted from the vanguard they had previously sent.

The strong national spirit made the revolutionaries want to continue the war, which naturally clashed with the pope.

And so the revolution ensued.

"Venice and Lombardy subjugated? It can't be! Pesini asked suspiciously: "I read in the newspaper that the Sardinian army has trapped the Austrian army!" Now the Austrian Empire is plotting negotiations! ”

"Negotiation is just a bluffing ploy!" Jérôme. Bonaparte sneered and said, "They are just using the maneuvering methods to buy themselves time to transfer troops!" Now the supreme military leader of the Austrian Empire in Lombardy and Venice was Radetzky, the chief of staff of the coalition forces of the year, counting on that old fellow to compromise with Sardinia! Unless it's my uncle's resurrection! ”

"Huh? But I heard that the Austrian ambassador had already discussed...... "Pesini still couldn't believe that the war had reached such a point that it would be reasonable for the Austrian Empire to be soft."

After all, the Hungarian and Czech rebellions in the Austrian Empire involved a large part of Austria's energy.

"Pesini, trust me! The government of the Austrian Empire was only briefly schizophrenic, and once a strongman came to power, the Austrian Empire would soon return to normal! "Jérôme. Bonaparte replied confidently.

"Strongman?" Pesini couldn't think of anyone else who could save the messy Austrian Empire from its quagmire.

Jérôme. Bonaparte did not want to dwell on the question between Austria and Italy any longer, and if he did talk about it, he would probably have to start with the Congress of Vienna.

Not only the problems of Italy, but even the problems of the entire turbulent nineteenth century, needed to be opened from that meeting.

"In short, as long as the Austrian Empire does not carry out a counterattack for a day, Rome will not be in chaos! As soon as the Austrian imperial counteroffensive began, the suppressed conservatives and revolutionaries within Rome clashed. When the time comes, the revolution will follow. "Jérôme. Bonaparte summed it up.

In Jérôme. Bonaparte's analysis of Pessini's analysis of Jérôme. Bonaparte finally had confidence in going to Rome, and out of caution, he still cautiously advised: "Your Highness, you better be careful!" ”

"I see! When I arrive in Rome, I'll ask Letty to recruit a few guards! "Jérôme. Bonaparte casually said perfunctorily.

After speaking, the two walked upstairs together and entered the parking Louie. The room of Napoleon's corpse.

Looking at Louie, who had been embalmed. Napoleon, Jérôme. Bonaparte gave the order to pack the boxes to Pessini.

Having taken the order, Pessini left the room, and he was going to look for a suitable Louis. The coffin with a sliding lid of Napoleon's corpse.

Alone in Louie. Jérôme of Napoleon's "morgue". Bonaparte looked at his cousin with tears in his eyes and said in a brisk tone: "Cousin, you are walking easily!" But the future of the Bonaparte family is up to me! The Party of Order, the Republicans, the Mountain Party...... None of them are fuel-efficient lamps! Leave it all to me......"

Jérôme. After babbling for more than ten minutes, Bonaparte closed his eyes and compared a standard Christian farewell etiquette and muttered in a low voice: "I hope you are in the spirit of heaven, bless me, and bless the Bonaparte family!" ”
