Chapter 156: The Bonaparte Council
In an autocratic empire, once a policy/bill is supported by an absolute monarch, it becomes very easy to implement that policy.
The Austrian ambassador to France, Baron Hubert, received a telegram from Vienna the next day, in which he praised his efforts to win over France, and agreed with Baron Huebey.
Baron Hubeuil immediately took a carriage to the Élysée Palace to inform Jérôme of the "good news". Bonaparte.
"Your Excellency, His Majesty Franz and Chancellor Schwarzenberg have agreed to all your conditions!" Baron Hubeuil vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte will report.
"That's great!" Jérôme. Bonaparte also smiled hypocritically, and then changed his tone and said nakedly: "I don't know, which piece of land is the Austrian Empire willing to claim in favor of France?" ”
"Some problems left over from history on the left bank of the Rhineland! The Empire will support the French Republic to defend its interest! Baron Huebey made no secret of his attempts to "betray the country".
"Then in what way should the Austrian Empire support the legitimate demands of the French Republic!" Jérôme. Bonaparte asked reluctantly.
"Your Excellency, there will inevitably be a war between Prussia and Austria! The defeated will accept all the conditions of the winner! "Baron Hubeuil to Jérôme. Bonaparte made his own blank checks.
Jérôme, who was well versed in the strength of the Austrian Empire. Bonaparte was not at all afraid that the Austrian Empire would be like Bismarck in Prussia, and that their armies would only decay with the passage of time.
Now they need to weaken Prussia instead of France.
If it weren't for the fact that the French Republic was too restricted, Jérôme. Bonaparte was eager to take matters into account for the ugly product that was born in 1815.
Because of the question of Prussia and Austria, Jérôme. Bonaparte had not slept well for several nights.
Huber looked at the silent Jérôme with trepidation. Bonaparte, he did not know if his empty promises would be able to attract this greedy president.
Until he heard Jérôme. Bonaparte's "voice of heaven": "I look forward to your victory over Prussia and the preservation of peace in Europe!" ”
The big stone in the heart of Baron Huubeuil fell to the ground, and he was slightly like Jérôme. Bonaparte bowed and said, "Your Excellency, thank you for your support of the Austrian Empire!" ”
"Support Austria as well as France!" Jérôme. Bonaparte was heartfelt.
If he had to face an enemy in Germany, he would rather face a multi-ethnic Austria than face the "German Empire", which was slightly superior to France in terms of population and soldiers.
Convey the Vienna resolution to Jérôme. Baron Huubey, who had heard this, left the Élysée Palace with firm steps, believing that Austria, supported by Russia and France, would be able to defeat Prussia.
Alas! I hope you can give some help!
Jérôme. Bonaparte also prayed that the Austrian Empire would weaken the Kingdom of Prussia.
Dealing with the German crisis, he was finally free to step down the throne of Chancellor Barrow, whom he had personally supported.
If Barrow does not choose to travel to Britain to meet Louis. Philip's words, his prime minister can still sit for a long time.
……
That night, in the conference room of the Élysée Palace, all the high-ranking members of the Bonaparte faction, except for Pesini and Mocal, were present.
Jérôme in the meeting room. Bonaparte sat on the main seat, and the Prince of Montfort (old Jérôme. Bonaparte) sat in Jérôme. On the opposite side of Bonaparte, Morny and Eugène. Rue sat in Jérôme. Left and right sides of Bonaparte.
"Guys, I've got the latest news! Our Prime Minister Barrow has joined the Britannica! "Jérôme. Bonaparte said quietly to everyone present.
In Jérôme. At the moment when Bonaparte announced the "bombshell" to the crowd, there was a small uproar in the conference room. The Bonapartist members of Philip's men all had melancholy expressions.
Jérôme. Bonaparte turned his gaze to Pierre. Bonaparte, he wanted to hear what his cousin had to say.
It was long ago taken by Jérôme. Bonaparte gave the power to contact and co-opt with parliamentarians. Bonaparte in Jérôme. Under Bonaparte's gaze, he could only respond stubbornly: "During this time, I have secretly contacted a group of parliamentarians, most of whom do not agree with the removal of Barrow!" ”
"Understandable!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded in understanding.
Not waiting for Pierre. Bonaparte breathed a sigh of relief, Jérôme. Bonaparte's next sentence made Pierre. Bonaparte's heart raised his throat: "But there are always some people who agree with us!" ”
Pierre. Bonaparte smiled reluctantly, saying that if he didn't agree with it all, it meant that he was not capable of it, but it was true that no one openly agreed to remove Barrow.
Even some of the MPs who disagreed with him believed that Barrow's presence could heal the cracks in the Party of Order.
"Most of them are just grass on the wall!" Pierre. Bonaparte could only choose to weaken the attitude of the parliamentarians, and he said firmly: "As long as we have firm faith, they will only follow your steps!" ”
Jérôme. Bonaparte bowed slightly, and dismissed Odilon from the history of his cousin. Judging from Barrow's actions, although the MPs of the Party of Order do not approve of the recall, they will only choose to refuse their appointment as a confrontation, and it is impossible to wield a knife and gun at themselves.
Jérôme. Bonaparte's recognition made Pierre. Bonaparte breathed a sigh of relief.
As my cousin spent more and more time in the presidency, his majesty became more and more frightening, and now he was able to do it without being angry, which was really creepy.
"Rue, how's the situation on your side?" Jérôme. Bonaparte turned his gaze to Eugène. Ruet.
"Your Majesty, I have spoken with several members of parliament a few times! Their attitude is the same as that of Pierre. Congressman Bonaparte said the same, but to a different degree in each person! "Eugène. Ruet's response indirectly helped Pierre. Bonaparte relieved the siege.
Eugène. Rue also won the Pierre Pierre. Bonaparte's grateful gaze.
"It seems that the members of the Republic are really united!" Jérôme. A sneer appeared at the corner of Bonaparte's mouth, and his tone became yin and yang.
Everyone except the Prince of Montfort was silent.
"But!" Jérôme. Bonaparte continued to sneer and said: "Since they have no clear opposition, then it means that our Monsieur Barrow himself has been dissatisfied with the members of the Order Party. Travelling to London during the recess of Parliament is all the more indicative of the fact that our Prime Minister Barrow wants to seek the support of that person and then bridge his grievances and thus secure his position. We can't let Prime Minister Barrow unite the Party of Order! I have decided that I will remove Prime Minister Barrow when Parliament reopens! ”
All present respectfully greeted the listener Jérôme. Bonaparte's final decision, their faces also showed different expressions, including surprise, surprise, excitement and fear.
Jérôme. Bonaparte took in everyone's expressions, and then reassured the Bonapartes: "Please rest assured! I'm not going to do something I'm not sure of! The so-called Party of Order is, after all, nothing more than a collection of disagreeable people, who are still chattering about their heirs to the throne, and we just need to use thunderous means to shut them up! ”
At the end of the day, the Second Republic gave the president almost the power of an autocratic emperor.
When the president has the power to remove the prime minister without going through parliament, the executive power used by the prime minister must be accountable to his immediate leaders.
Just like Jérôme now. Bonaparte for Odilon. Barrow travels to London to meet Louis. If Philip is not satisfied, he can remove Odilon when the council restarts. Barrow.
The so-called respect for parliament is nothing more than Jérôme. A fig leaf for Bonaparte.
If the president who has assumed executive power and is loyal to the army, then he is fully capable of exercising dictatorship.
The cabal of the Élysée Palace in Jérôme. Bonaparte's command gradually moved in the established direction.
After the meeting, Eugène. Ruie was Jerome. Bonaparte remained in the study.
"Sit down, Minister Ruet!" Jérôme. Bonaparte invited Eugène. Ruai sat down.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Eugène. Ruie sat in Jérôme. Opposite Bonaparte.
Jérôme. Bonaparte crossed his hands in front of his chest, leaned back in his chair and asked in a relaxed gesture: "Minister Ruet, do you think we are going to reappoint a prime minister after the removal of Barrow?" ”
History of his cousin in the deposition of Odilon. Barrow did not appoint a new prime minister, and he personally led the cabinet, calling himself a "supra-class cabinet".
However, during the implementation of the "super-class cabinet" stage, my cousin encountered many troubles.
I can't figure out Jérôme. Did Bonaparte want the prime minister or not the prime minister Eugène. Ruai could only say, according to his own opinion: "Your Majesty, I think we need someone who can attract firepower!" ”
"You're saying that you agree to set up a prime minister in appointing one?" Jérôme. Bonaparte vs Eugène. Ruai asked.
"Your Majesty, we can appoint a person of the Order who is inclined to us as Prime Minister! This will ensure that our interests will not be harmed, and it will also ensure that there will be no overly violent reaction on the part of the Party of Order! "Eugène. Rue presented his opinion.
"Yes! Our strength is still somewhat smaller than that of the Party of Order. But where are we going to find people who are inclined to us, who are also the Party of Order? "Jérôme. Bonaparte pondered the orderists with whom he had crossed paths.
"That's right! He must be able to! ”
