In the political program published in the newspaper on the second round of reform of the Papal States, Jérôme . Bonaparte clearly felt the embarrassment of the Papal States, but he had to do it.

The reform emphasized that the Papal States should follow the trend of history and establish a system suitable for the national conditions of the Papal States, so the Papal States would implement a bicameral system.

Members of the House of Lords will have the Cardinal Order, nominated by Pope Pius IX, and the knights of Rome with titles of nobility. The House of Commons is elected by all subjects of the Papal States, and a cabinet is formed according to the proportion of the parties in the House of Commons.

If the parties in the House of Commons are unable to form a majority in the House of Commons, Pope Pius IX will serve as Prime Minister.

Of course, Pope Pius IX can also appoint the prime minister of his own cabinet.

From this set of political systems, Jérôme. Bonaparte could see that Pius IX was not willing to lose his secular rule altogether, otherwise he would not have added to the political program of reform a right for the pope to appoint the cabinet himself.

Of course, since the position of the Pope is elected by the College of Cardinals, the College of Cardinals in the House of Lords appears to be nothing more than a mascot, but in fact it still controls the entire Papal States.

In Jérôme's view, the second round of political reform obviously imitated the flavor of French political reform, but because of the inherent secular and religious characteristics of the pope, a good French political reform became a reform here in the Papal States.

The Pope under the second round of reforms, although he lost some of his powers, still held the vast majority of the power of the entire Papal States.

It is equivalent to a transformation from a reactionary absolute monarchy to an enlightened absolute monarchy.

The advantage of relinquishing some of his rights was that Pius IX was able to continue to enjoy the majority of Roman support.

If there were no outside forces to intervene, such reforms would have allowed the Papal States to survive the perilous European Revolution.

Can all this really be as Pius IX wished?

On 17 July, the first vote in the Papal States began, and Pius IX joined Perelino. Rossi went to St. Peter's Square to announce the House of Commons to the inhabitants of Rome, and to the inhabitants of Rome to announce the names of the provisional members of the Cabinet until the first Cabinet was elected.

Pererino. Rossi was promoted to the position of the first interim prime minister of the Papal States and secretary of state for the interior and foreign affairs, Bishop Muzarelli was also promoted to minister in charge of public education, and most of the rest, such as chancellor of the exchequer and minister of transport, were also in the clergy, or gentlemen who were close to the clergy.

Although the prominent nobles in Rome were dissatisfied with Pius IX's appointment of cronies by the Pope, the vote was imminent, and the carrot bolts of Pius IX were not willing to compete with Pius IX in the matter of temporary cabinets.

Anyway, they are nothing more than temporary cabinets, once they and their own party are elected.

Not afraid of Pius IX's reluctance to fulfill his promises.

……

On 31 July, a letter from Paris arrived in Jérôme via the port of Marseille. In Bonaparte's hands, it was none other than Pesini who was responsible for delivering the message.

Looking at Pesini, who came from Paris, Jérôme sat on his desk with his hands crossed. Bonaparte hurriedly got up and gave Pesini a hug and said, "Persini, long time no see!" ”

"Your Highness, it's great to meet you!" Pessini was thrilled to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.

Subsequently, in Jérôme. At Bonaparte's invitation, the two sat down on the sofa at their desks.

Seeing this, Captain Letty hurried for Pesini and Jérôme. Bonaparte and the two presented two cups of coffee and a crystal cup with sugar cubes and a small tweezer.

"Sugar cubes!" Jérôme tweezers on a sugar cube and asked if Pesini had added it.

"No need! Thank you! Percini picked up the coffee and stirred it quietly twice with a spoon, and the rising white water vapor continued to gush out of the coffee under Pesini's stirring, and the brown coffee gradually turned into a brown-white soldier showing a viscous state. After stirring a few times, Persini gently blew away the water vapor floating on the edge of the cup, and took a sip of coffee, and half of the fatigue of the car and horse disappeared in an instant.

Under the influence of coffee, the spirited Pesini went to Jérôme. Bonaparte once again elaborated on the situation in Paris.

Under the blow of Kafenjak, the whole of Paris had a temporary weakness, and now it was again stunned.

Physical injuries can be physically shut up, but mental injuries can only be repaired with time.

After the revolution, General Kafenjac was met with strong resistance from moderate republicans led by Hugo, who even threatened to say that he would never support an executioner.

"Huh? Our Dick Tykdo dictator did nothing to poor Victor. Did Mr. Hugo make a move? "Jérôme. Bonaparte asked gloatingly.

As a competitor to Kafenyak, he wants the more people who oppose Kafenjak, the better.

To engage in politics is to make more friends and fewer enemies.

"I've heard that Kafenjak has been in the office several times and is claiming to arrest Mr. Hugo!" Pessini also gloated: "However, our Monsieur Diction clearly does not have the courage to imprison Monsieur Hugo, who is now preparing for the presidential election in December. ”

"I don't have the courage to carry out a coup d'état, but I have the courage to suppress the workers! Our General Dicktido is really a man who makes money on his knees! "Jérôme. Bonaparte continued to taunt Kafenjac, and then he asked again: "By the way, do you have any difficulties with publicity?" ”

"Hey...... Hey......" Pesini scratched his head embarrassedly and whispered: "It's not without difficulty, that is, when we put up small advertisements, we are always surrounded and intercepted by a group of people, so that every time the party members are caught, they have to be rescued by Princess Mathilde!" ”

Jérôme. The corners of Bonaparte's mouth twitched slightly, and according to Pesini's description, the relevant scene had already appeared in his mind.

The propaganda of the Bonapartist faction actually relied on indiscriminate posting of small advertisements, whether this was the progress of the times or the "degeneration" of the Bonapartist faction.

"By the way, this is a letter from General Divor to you!" Pessini gave the letter to Jérôme. Bonaparte.

Jérôme. Bonaparte opened the envelope and looked at the contents.

The envelope says that under his guarantee Jérôme. Bonaparte could depart for his return to France.

"Let's go! Back to France! ”
