Chapter 146: "Luoshui" Oath
Carriage in Germany. Reina's guide leads east along the banks of the Loire and soon leads to the eastern edge of Tours, from which they will enter the city centre.
It has not yet officially entered the city of De. Reina could not wait to point to Jérôme on the other side of the Loire. Bonaparte said: "Your Excellency, look there! ”
Jérôme. Bonaparte followed De. Reina looked in the direction of his finger, and on the opposite side of the Loire sat an octagonal tower, and behind the octagonal tower was a looming pink building, which seemed to be the residence of some nobleman.
"De. Mayor Reina, where is it? "Jérôme, who does not know much about the history of the city of Tours. Bonaparte asked.
"Your Excellency, that's the Château de Clolus!" Morality. Reyna looked proud at Jérôme. "It was the residence of François I and Leonardo da Vinci, who was invited by King François I of France to spend the rest of his life in his twilight years in Tours, and finally died in that castle, in the arms of François I," said Bonaparte. ”
Despite the fact that Jérôme. Bonaparte didn't know who King François I was, but Leonardo da Vinci's name is something that every student who has studied high school history and the European Renaissance must know.
If the Middle Ages represented the darkness of the Church, the Renaissance was undoubtedly the sharp knife that pierced through the darkness.
Both Prussian Protestantism and the Anglican Church in Britain are inextricably linked to the Renaissance, Leonardo da Vinci and others are part of the sharp knife of the Renaissance, and the printing press brought by Arab scholars is an important tool to smash Catholic thought, which was originally used as a power to print indulgences, and became the main culprit of the Catholic split.
After the Renaissance, Protestantism was an important driving force in the capitalist transformation of England.
What is even more ironic is that the Ottoman Empire, as the "birthplace" of printing, decisively ordered a strict inspection of the printing press when it saw that Catholicism was divided in doctrine due to the popularization of printing, and that Protestantism and Catholicism were fighting in Germany and Britain. The Ottoman Empire was saved from falling into "division".
"Tours is such an incredible city!" Jérôme. Bonaparte sighed.
"Not only that, but Tours is also the royal land of the former Valois dynasty!" Morality. Reina painted to Jérôme. Bonaparte depicts the history of the city of Tours, from the Franconian Palace to Charles. Matt's defeat of the Arab coalition in Tours to the time of the Revolution when Tours served as a base for counterattacking the Vendée rebels, in short, Tours was an indispensable and irreplaceable member of the entire western part of France.
Jérôme. Bonaparte listened attentively to the Virtues. Reina's description of Tours is punctuated by Storm. Mayor Reina nodded.
Influenced by Jérôme. Bonaparte "inspired" the de. Mayor Reina went even further to tell the story of the development of the Tours region, including how Tours went from a thriving textile area to the city where it is now a thriving agricultural city.
In Germany. In Reina's mouth, Tours is a perfect city.
"If it weren't for the heir of the Valois dynasty, the capital of France would have been Tours!" Morality. Reina swore to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.
"Hmmm! I think so too! "Jérôme. Bonaparte casually said perfunctory, and his heart was for Des. Reyna boasted that Tours did not think so, and that Tours might be able to beat the west in the west of France and win the reputation of the "black pearl" in the west, but if he wanted to compete with Paris, he still had to dismiss the idea as soon as possible.
History proves that Paris is the heart of the whole of France, and even if generations of French kings have consciously limited the native population of Paris, Paris has absorbed the surrounding people by virtue of its advantageous geographical location.
So much so that kings from Louis XIII onwards had to subdue the citizens of Paris before they could control the whole of France.
The relationship between Paris and the provinces is also bordering on hatred, and every time the French ruler rebels in Paris, he will choose to send troops from the provinces to suppress Paris, and each time the blood of the citizens of Paris needs to be stained on the streets of Paris, so that the fanaticism in Paris can be alleviated.
At the beginning, Louis XVI was sent to the guillotine because of his weakness and did not dare to suppress the people of Paris like his grandfather.
After the Revolution, the political and economic status of Paris surpassed that of the second and third largest cities in France.
"So Your Excellency!" Morality. Renatu said, "I hope that Tours will become the leader of the western region under your leadership!" The citizens of Tours will faithfully follow His Majesty the President! ”
Good guys, the original routine is here! I said how to boast about Tours.
Jérôme. Bonaparte instantly understood De. The meaning of the mayor of Reina.
If Paris will be the center (first and only hub) of the French railways, then de . Reina undoubtedly hopes that Tours can become a secondary center after France.
Once Tours became a transportation hub for the whole of western France, Tours would inevitably become more and more prosperous due to the circulation of goods.
It can be said that the whole west is talking about turning into the blood bag of Tours.
Of course, this is not to say that Tourer himself is a dou who can't be helped.
Otherwise, Tours would not have been the site of the first few batches.
[PS: According to an unreliable grapevine, when Prime Minister Thiers was planning the Western Railway, he once received a "donation" from the business community in Tours. Of course, after the incident, Prime Minister Thiers refuted the rumor that he did not receive the so-called black money, and everything was a rumor. 】
Although said Jérôme. Bonaparte was inwardly inclined to Tours as the hub of the Western Railway, but he could not inform de Bonaparte of his inclination now. Leonard.
Looking at Jérôme, who had been silent for a long time. Bonaparte, de . Reina couldn't help but be a little restless.
In order to win Jérôme. Bonaparte's support, the carriage of De. Reina even openly addressed Jérôme. Bonaparte hinted at the unwavering support of Jérôme by the people of Tours as long as they were able to take control of the Western Railway. The coup d'état of President Bonaparte.
Since July 1, 1849, the Lord. After the trial of Roland and others for their "counter-revolutionary" acts, there was a public opinion out of nowhere that the president and the leaders of the majority party (the Party of Order) were about to stage a coup d'état and then amend the constitution.
This wind of public opinion prevailed not only in Paris, but also in several provinces around Paris. After August 10, Bonaparte had to go to the provinces near Paris to "clear up" the misunderstanding and try to gain the support of the provinces around Paris.
After all, Jérôme. Before Bonaparte was ready to carry out the coup plan, public opinion had already pushed him to the climax of the coup.
If public opinion is not calmed down in person, it will be difficult for the coup to continue.
The coup d'état itself was a thing that was done by relying on the darkness of the lights.
If it is exposed, then your every move will be monitored by the people, and it will be much more difficult to carry out a coup d'état.
"De. Mr. Mayor Reina, I am loyal to the Constitution of the Republic! "Jérôme. Bonaparte spoke harshly to Germany. Reina reprimanded: "Although the current system has more or less shortcomings, it can be improved. Therefore, believe in the future, stop thinking about a coup d'état, and stop trying to seek something through a coup d'état. I'm Jérôme. Bonaparte could swear to the Loire that I will be loyal to the constitution of the Republic and to the French people all my life! I will also tell you that there is no excuse for a coup d'état, and there is no possibility of a riot! Anyone who tries to oppose the French people will not end well! ”
Jérôme. Bonaparte's attitude towards the coup d'état was incompatible. Mayor Reina had a sense that he was not to blame the president.
Sit in Jérôme. Pesini, on Bonaparte's right, had a smiling expression on his face. Having worked with Bonaparte for more than a year, he knew that the so-called oath was important for Jérôme. Bonaparte had no binding force to think.
Mr. President is an opportunist who is too realistic to be realistic.
"Your Excellency, I'm sorry for what you just said!" Morality. Reina feigned shame and said, "Still, I hope you will consider my plea!" ”
"Hmmm! I'll think about it! "Jérôme. Bonaparte Chongde. Reina nodded in response.
The carriage entered the city center and the people on the streets rushed towards Jérôme. Bonaparte looked at his guards.
Jérôme inside the carriage. Bonaparte likewise waved at the inhabitants outside the carriage.
In Germany. Reina's arrangement under Jérôme. Bonaparte and Pessini stayed in a medieval-style hotel.
"Your Excellency, please rest here for a while! The people of Tours (in this case, the nobles and the propertied people) will meet you tomorrow! "De. Mayor of Reina to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.
"I can't wait to meet the famous gentlemen of Tours!" Jérôme. Bonaparte smiled and rushed to Germany. Mayor Reyna responded.
Morality. After the departure of the mayor of Reina, several Tabul tabloid reporters who had already prepared for the time were in front of the hotel, and they wanted to enter the door to interview Jérôme. Bonaparte.
Unexpectedly, before they could get close to the hotel, they were stopped by the president's guards guarding the hotel gate.
Not long after, the presidential adjutant Conrobel appeared at the gate and pointed to the tabloid reporters squatting at the gate and said: "Your Excellency the President invites you to have an interview!" ”
Led by Conrobert, the newspaper reporter entered the top floor of the hotel, which is Jérôme. The room where Bonaparte was located.
"Please!" Conrobel pushes Jérôme away. Bonaparte's door, Jérôme. Bonaparte was sitting upright in a garnet-red suede chair, and several chairs were placed opposite him, the same number of chairs as there were journalists.
"Sit down! Dear journalists, "Jérôme. Bonaparte invited the newspaper reporter to take a seat.
"Thank you, Mr. President!" The journalist was also courteous to Jérôme. Bonaparte saluted.
