Jérôme. Bonaparte's sudden question overwhelmed Lyueli.

Who in the whole of Paris did not know that the general who was now in charge of the Italian Front was Marshal Bijo, the "hardcore" Party of Order, and just last month, Marshal Bijo was still clamoring in Lyon to "lead troops close to Paris" and defeat the "red elements".

My God! Is the president going to do something about it?

Thinking of this, Laueri couldn't help but feel numb in his scalp, he should never have taken over as Minister of War in the first place, this position was simply a fire pit.

At this point, Lyueli could only cautiously and tentatively reply: "I think Marshal Bijo is strict in governing the army, and the combat effectiveness of the Italian Front is steadily rising under the leadership of Ah!" ”

"Oh? By the way, I almost forgot that Marshal Bijo was also the commander of the Italian Front! "Jérôme. Bonaparte suddenly realized that Marshal Bijo, the "Emperor" of the Italian Front, would die in September of this year, so the idea of transferring Liuelli to the post of commander of the Italian Front seemed to be somewhat difficult to implement.

"Your Excellency!" Lyueli looked at Jérôme suspiciously. Bonaparte, he did not understand Jérôme . Bonaparte.

"Minister Laueri!" Jérôme. Bonaparte, picking up an aluminum knife and fork and cutting the foie gras from the plate into small pieces, said to Laueri: "Frankly, you are no longer fit for the post of Minister of War!" ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte's calm words were so cold through the air that Lyuelli's fiery body was in Jérôme. The moment Bonaparte said "You are not suitable for the Minister of War" "froze", and his mind went blank and he did not know how to reply to Jérôme. Bonaparte.

Although Laueri said that he should not take over as Minister of War, and knew in his heart that sooner or later he would be removed by the president or the prime minister, it was Jérôme. When Bonaparte made a "showdown" with him, he could not accept this result for a while.

You were the ones who called me back from the Legislative Assembly in the first place, and you are the ones who now consider me unfit to be Minister of War.

An inexplicable anger poured into Lyaulie's heart, and if he weren't a politician, he would have gotten up and left.

Because he is a politician, even if he is broken teeth, he has to smile and say "good fight".

"Mr. President, I know that I am too young to be qualified for the post of Minister of War!" Lyueli smiled reluctantly and spoke dryly to Jerome. Bonaparte said.

Looking at Lyuelli's mournful expression, Jérôme. Bonaparte was even more determined to take power into his own hands, and he did not want to be a pawn like Laueri to be discarded.

The party of order must die, the empire must live

To ease the awkward atmosphere of Jérôme. Bonaparte raised his glass and said in a brisk tone: "Thank you, Mr. Minister, for your work in the War Department these days!" ”

Lyueli raised his glass and drank the brandy, and the bitter brandy made Lyueli cough twice.

The servant on the side hurriedly handed the white handkerchief to Minister Liueli, who took the handkerchief, wiped the corner of his mouth and apologized: "Your Excellency President, please forgive me for my gaffe!" ”

"Mr. Minister, I understand your current mood!" Jérôme. Bonaparte comforted Minister Lyuelli, and then changed his tune: "I also understand and respect your neutral choice, but I hope you can also understand me, that old fellow of Shangargne has been going too far lately!" ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte's open and honest response finally warmed Laueli's cold heart, and he also understood that with the fall of the Monthill Party and the Republicans, the enemies of the president and the Party of Order no longer existed, and the next step was either the president suppressing the parliament to become the president in real power, or the parliament suppressing the president and turning the president into a puppet.

[PS: Lyuelli thinks Jérôme. Bonaparte just wanted to be a president with real power and get through four years smoothly. 】

How could the president, who was the nephew of the emperor, tolerate a parliament that was pointing fingers at his head, and there was no possibility of neutrality between the president and the party of order.

The War Department was nothing more than the first wave of the President's attack on Parliament.

Minister Liueli, who "figured out" this, was finally a little better in his heart, and he was unwilling to help the president against the parliament, and he was also unwilling to help the parliament against the president, and he was really not suitable to stay in this position.

"Your Excellency, I do not want to get involved in the whirlpool of partisanship, and I also understand your will." Lyueli couldn't help but remind: "But as a minister who is about to be deposed by you, a humble officer who follows the emperor to fight, I still want to remind you that the War Ministry is a large and bloated bureaucratic organization!" If it is not necessary, I hope you still do not touch them, once their interests are touched, even if they respect you, they will not hesitate to fight back against you. I know these guys all too well, they won't oppose you while you're still on stage, and if one day you do accidentally lose ground, they will definitely not hesitate to fight back? ”

"Thank you, Mr. Minister, for your advice!" Jérôme. Bonaparte first thanked Lyuelli, and then said firmly: "I remember that two months ago, I told you that even if there is an abyss ahead, I will not hesitate to jump down!" ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte's resolute expression reminded Lyuelli of the emperor more than thirty years ago, and the emperor was so determined?

If he was still young, he would definitely follow the emperor's nephew without hesitation to do something great.

Now that he is old and has become conservative in his thinking, he would rather resign than participate in it, who is unwilling to toss.

"Your Excellency, since you have made up your mind, I sincerely wish you success!" Minister Lyuelli likewise raised his glass to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

"Hmm!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded, and the two crystal clear wine glasses collided together to make a "ding-dong" sound.

Laueri and Jérôme. Bonaparte drank all the brandy in his glass at the same time, and the manservant next to him quickly refilled the wine for the two of them.

Lyuelli carefully squeezed half a lemon with a knife and fork, and the lemonade flowed from the lemon to the sturgeon meat, and the sour lemon combined with the tender sturgeon meat and the special sauce were a supreme pleasure to chew in your mouth.

Jérôme. Bonaparte waited quietly for Lyue to finish his meal, until Laueri's Adam's apple squirmed up and down, and Jérôme. "Mr. Minister, I don't know which position you mean, Deputy Commander of the Strasbourg Front?" Deputy Commander of the Italian Front? Or is it the governor of the Algerian side? ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte, who was supposed to be the commander of the army, was naked and left to be chosen by Liuelli in the form of compensation.

Lyueli looked surprised, and Jérôme. Bonaparte waved his hand and said, "Mr. Minister, I just think you should get out of the whirlpool of the Minister of War!" You are a good general, and a good general should not be buried! ”

"Deputy Commander of the Strasbourg Front!" Laueri's choice came out of Jérôme. Unexpectedly, Bonaparte did not choose the governor of Algeria, who had the most oil and water, but the deputy commander of Strasbourg.

"Thank you, Your Excellency, for your generosity, for being able to provide me with so many options!" Lyauelli smiled unknowingly self-deprecatingly and said, "I'm old! I don't want to get involved in any strife, and I don't want to do any dangerous work! Deputy Commander of Strasbourg is a good job! ”

"I see!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded in response to Lyueli.

"But, Your Excellency! I wonder who's going to come and take over my job! Minister Lyuelli asked Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

Jérôme. Bonaparte was silent.

"I was presumptuous!" Lyuelli apologized to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.

"Currently serving as Major General Regnio of the Roman Expeditionary Force!" Jérôme. Bonaparte spoke, "I am going to put him in your place at the helm of the War Department." ”

"It turned out to be him!" Lyuelli then understood why Reinho had just been promoted to major general and had become commander of the Roman expeditionary force.

After a long time of trouble, it turned out that the president paved the way for him in advance so that he could smoothly take over his position.

Regnio's treatment made Lyueli jealous and a little gloating, and he was looking forward to Regnho's performance when he returned home.

Minister Liueli, who calmed down, half-jokingly: "It seems that your Excellency the President is not ready to remove me immediately!" ”

"That's right!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded in agreement with Lyueli's idea, "I still hope that the time before you leave, Minister, can help me put the War Department in order!" We will not forget your contribution, Mr. Minister! ”

Lyueli pondered for a moment before speaking: "I will serve His Excellency the President as much as I can!" ”

……

After all the conversation, in Jérôme. Accompanied by Bonaparte, Lyuelli was on the horse on the way back.

Looking at the back of the Willow Carriage stretching out its shadow and fading away, Jérôme. Bonaparte turned and returned to the Élysée Palace.

"Your Majesty, did Lyueli really agree?" Follow in Jérôme. Pesini, beside Bonaparte, asked.

"He's already promised!" Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.

"Great!" Pesini clenched his fists excitedly and said, "I can finally give those guys a good look!" ”

"Pesini!" Jérôme. Bonaparte exclaimed in a cold tone.

"In!" Pesini was quick to respond.

"Be cautious until you get to the last step!" Jérôme. Bonaparte reminded Pessini in a cold tone: "The slightest negligence can take everything from us!" ”

"Yes!" Pessini replied solemnly.

On the other hand, Liuelli in the carriage stared out the window at Paris, which seemed so silent and frightening in the darkness that the conflict was about to begin.

"Eventful!"
