Chapter 158: Candidates for Prime Minister
Jérôme. Bonaparte instantly understood what Count Falou meant, and between the royal family and the church, the Count of Falou preferred the church over the royal family.
Of course, the Count of Falou chose the Church not entirely because he was loyal to the Church, but because he saw no possibility of the Orthodox royal family winning.
The forces of the Orthodox faction did not occupy many seats in the Party of Order, and their Majesty did not allow them to unite with the Orleans faction of the Party of Order.
This meant that they could only rely on their own strength to put their monarch on the throne.
Had they been overwhelming in Parliament, the original Musou Cabinet would not have faltered in the face of the opposition of all in Paris, and Charles X would not have gone into exile.
Not to mention that now that the older generation of royalists have withered, their power will only be weaker than it was at the beginning.
It's an impossible thing to do on their own.
Rather than clinging to an unattainable dream, it is better to make their monarch understand the predicament they face.
The Count of Falou, who had been repressed for many years in the Orleans dynasty, also learned to bet on both sides.
Although his heart was still full of respect for the Count of Chambor, reality forced him to bow his head.
The Count of Falou and some of the clerical faction behind him supported Jérôme. Bonaparte's confidence grew.
Once the Orthodoxy broke with the Orleanists, then Odilon . Barrow, even if he has great ability, can't bridge the differences between the two sides.
Unless Odilon. Barrow is able to incarnate Yuri's brain-controlling Count of Chambor.
[PS: Since the royal sound of the Count of Chambol only spreads in a small area, Odilon at this time. Barrow still dreams of uniting the Orleanists with the Orthodox. 】
"Count Falou, rest assured! Odilon. After Barrow was deposed, the position of Minister of Public Education remained yours! "Jérôme. Bonaparte promised the Count of Falou.
"No need!" The Count of Falou shook his head and rejected Jérôme. Bonaparte's promise.
Disheartened by the Orthodox, he did not want to stay too long in the position of Minister of Public Education.
"If I remain in the position of Minister of Public Education, then my colleagues will think that I have been bought by you! I beg your understanding that my loyalty does not allow me to serve two monarchs at the same time! "The Count of Falou sent a letter to Jérôme. Bonaparte explained.
"Alas!" Jérôme. Bonaparte sighed, knowing that the Count of Falou had rejected his olive branch.
"Your Excellency, I hope that after I leave office, the education reform will continue, we must not let those liberal republicans poison our French next generation, we must make them understand what it means to be in awe and obedience, only then can your rule be more secure!" The Count of Falou spoke resolutely to Jérôme. Bonaparte said.
Jérôme. Bonaparte listened quietly to every word of the Count of Falou, and he knew that this was the last "reward" that the Count of Falou wanted.
"Rest assured, Mr. Falou! After your resignation, the education reform in France will continue! I will choose a competent and responsible person to be the standard-bearer of education reform! I also agree with your statement that we must eliminate the corrupt and free ideas from the source of the new generation! It is only under the inspiration of order and morality that France can be strengthened! ”
Jérôme. Bonaparte did not like to use religious ideas to fool and manipulate people, but the French horses needed religion as a tranquilizer to tame them for a short time.
During this time, he would train millions of bureaucrats, generals, and engineers. They will go down to the grassroots level to gradually replace religion.
At that point, he will be able to kick religion away without mercy.
Jérôme. Bonaparte and Falou spoke for nearly half an hour, when the Count of Falou was arrested by Jérôme. Bonaparte personally sent him away through the back door.
Jérôme, who watched the Count of Falou leave. Bonaparte returned to his study, pulled out a blank red invitation card from the study drawer, wrote down the inviter and date with an emerald dipped pen, and then ordered the servant to deliver the invitation to the inviter.
……
A group of dragoons in green armor rode to Count Opral's castle and knocked on the door of Count Opral's house, and Count Oppel himself opened the door.
"Count Opple, this is your invitation!" The dragoons respectfully handed the invitation to Count Opple.
Count Opple, who received the invitation, thanked the dragoons.
The dragoons, who had delivered the invitation to Count Opple, rode away.
Looking at the back of the departing dragoons, Count Opple opened the folded invitation.
The invitation was roughly an invitation to him to attend a dinner at the Élysée Palace tomorrow afternoon.
Having not seen the President for nearly two months, Earl Opple returned to the castle excitedly and hugged his wife, who was more than 20 years old.
"When did it happen?" The wife inquired curiously, Count Opple.
"I received an invitation from the president!" Count Opple replied excitedly to his wife.
"Huh?" The wife is still puzzled, it's just that she is receiving invitations, what is the fuss.
"You don't understand!" Count Opaull saw his wife's doubts, and he was in no mood to explain them to her at the moment.
On the evening of September 21, night fell.
Under a starry sky, a horse-drawn carriage departs from Château d'Opple to the Élysée Palace.
The carriage traveled unhindered and soon arrived at the Élysée Palace.
Led by the servants, Earl Opple arrived at the dining room, and the two servants worked together to push open the door of the dining room.
The main seat of the restaurant is Jérôme. Bonaparte and the people at the long table watched him silently.
Well? How come they are all here?
Count Oppel suddenly discovered that he knew many people in the restaurant, and the presence of some even surprised Count Oppel.
"Our protagonist is here!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said with a hint of amusement.
"Your Excellency!" The Count of Opple respectfully addressed Jérôme. Bonaparte saluted.
"Sit down!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said, pointing to the first vacant seat to his right.
Count Opple looked at the location in Jérôme. Sitting next to Bonaparte, he already had a vague sense that this dinner was more than just eating.
However, he had been prepared before he came.
Count Opaure sat in Jérôme. Bonaparte's side.
With the Earl of Opple seated, the dinner officially began, and the delicacies were placed in front of everyone.
When all the dishes have been served and the wine has been poured, Jérôme. Bonaparte then got up and said, "Gentlemen, let us raise a glass to the Republic!" ”
Everyone present stood up and raised their glasses, Adolf. Fuld immediately shouted: "Long live Bonaparte, long live the Republic!" ”
All those present were followed by Adolf. Fuld shouted "Hurrah" together.
Then he drank the brandy from the cup.
"Everyone, please be seated! Have a seat! "Jérôme. Bonaparte motioned for everyone to sit down again.
After everyone was seated again, Jérôme. Bonaparte looked at all the cracks around him, and then said, "You are all loyal friends of our Bonaparte family, and there are some things that I don't have to hide from you!" I will remove Odilon during the reopening of the Parliament. Barrow. ”
Everyone except Count Opper had a nonchalant expression.
Even Odilon. Barrow's younger brother, Ferdinand. Barrow didn't say anything too much about his brother's depose.
It was as if Count Opper was the only one at the dinner with no knowledge of it.
[Ferdinand. Barrow (10 January 1806 – 12 November 1883) was a French Bonapartist statesman. Barrow's younger brother, who attended in 1836 had Louis. Napoleon's attempted coup d'état in Strasbourg was acquitted by a jury "review". 】
"You're going to be the new Cabinet of Treasurers!" Jérôme. Bonaparte turned his gaze to Adolf. Fulder, what he meant was self-evident.
"Minister of the Interior!" Jérôme. Bonaparte turned his gaze to Ferdinand. Barrow, Ferdinand. Barrow smiled.
"There are ministers of other departments!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said unhurriedly: "Of course, there is the most important prime minister. ”
Jérôme. Bonaparte's naked act of conferring on him caused a flame called ambition to ignite in the hearts of those present.
Sit in Jérôme. Count Opple, who was next to Bonaparte, was also thinking about which department the president might give him.
After a moment of thought, the Earl of Opple decided that if the president really wanted him to hold a high office, the most likely position would be that of Minister of War.
The thought that he was going to replace Lyuelli in military power made Count Opple's heart even more hot.
The dinner lasted almost two and a half hours, and the guests of the dinner successively turned to Jérôme. Bonaparte said goodbye.
The Count of Opaure also wanted Jérôme. Bonaparte said goodbye, but was departed by Jérôme. Bonaparte stopped and said, "General Oppour, please wait a moment!" ”
Count Opaull waited silently in place for Jérôme. Bonaparte sent everyone out of the Elysée Palace.
"Let's go to the study and talk!" Jérôme. Bonaparte took Opoul to the study.
Enter the study of Jérôme. Bonaparte immediately said to Count Opple: "General Opple, I want you to be prime minister of the new cabinet!" I don't know, what do you think! ”
Count Opple looked at Jérôme with a surprised expression. Bonaparte, who had thought he might become Minister of War, was told that he would be appointed Prime Minister.
Opple's first reaction was not joy, but an inexplicable absurdity.
Let a warrior who has no experience in governing for a day govern France??
"Mr. President, why me?"
Out of caution, Count Opple asked.
