As soon as the bill to limit universal suffrage was passed, there was a deafening cheer on the side of the Party of Order.

From this moment on, the "war" between the Party of Order and the Social Democrats, which has lasted for more than two years, can finally be declared over, and nearly one-third of the residents of the whole of France will be completely disqualified from voting, which means that the Social Democrats will lose one-third of their support, and the remaining two-thirds of the votes are mostly small bourgeois living in the city, and their conservatism will make them vote for the Party of Order.

Because the Party of Order is the guardian of "religion, order, and morality".

On the side of the social democrats, with the exception of a few parliamentarians who expressed despair, the vast majority of parliamentarians waited quietly for the end of the Legislative Assembly with their faces strained.

Having lost the universal suffrage law, they are no longer in a position to pose any threat to the Party of Order.

"Quiet!" Speaker Marast struck the wooden hammer again in an attempt to keep the Legislative Assembly as it should be.

Under the wooden hammer of Speaker Malast, the Party of Order gradually quieted down, and they provoked the members of the Social Democrats with applause instead of cheers.

"This is another fruit month of the new republic!"

Sit in Victor. Next to Hugo, the mountain councillor Emile. Olivier was indignant at Victor beside him. Hugo responded.

Victor. Hugo smiled and did not respond to Emile. Olivier.

Despite the fact that Victor. Hugo inwardly agreed with Aenell. Olivier's words, but he still maintained respect for the Legislative Assembly in his heart.

The reason why the Legislative Assembly has caused such a result is, in the final analysis, because of their power.

Amid applause from the Party of Order, Speaker Malast declared the Legislative Assembly closed.

The Party of Order, the Republicans, the Mountain Faction, and the Élysée Palace faction left the scene one after another.

"Look! Look! Our great poet of the Romantics is as fickle as a gust of wind, and in the end nothing has been accomplished! ”

The MP of the Order Party came to Victor. Hugo's side to Victor. Hugo mocked, Victor. Hugo responded with a smile: "Gentlemen, you have won!" You have won beautifully, yet your victory is won by trampling on the sanctity of the Republic! Hopefully, one day, you won't be treated the same way! ”

Victor. Hugo's response made the MPs of the Order Party show a touch of annoyance, where is this the speech of a loser and a traitor!

What a traitor you are!

Before the MPs of the Order Party could speak again to mock, the voice of the party leader, Thiers, came from behind the councillor: "Let me go, I want to talk to Monsieur Hugo!" ”

The councillor hurriedly got out of the way, and the dwarf Thiers appeared in Victor. Hugo's front.

At this moment, Thiers looked at Victor with a smug face. Hugo, he addressed Victor in a gentle and elegant tone. Hugo sent out an invitation: "Councillor Hugo, can you accompany me for a while!" ”

Victor. Hugo hesitated for a moment, and then he made up his mind to cut ties with the Party of Order, and he responded, "Good! ”

Thiers and Victor. Hugo walked out of the Palais Bourbon side by side.

At the invitation of Thiers, Victor. Hugo got into Thiers's carriage, and Thiers took him home.

Inside the carriage, Thiers did not look angry at all, he looked at Victor with a smile on his face. Hugo said in an easy-going tone: "Congressman Hugo, can you tell me why you want to quit the party?" Is it just because your party's obedience doesn't meet your expectations? ”

"Isn't that enough, Monsieur Thiers?" Victor. Hugo asked rhetorically.

Thiers shrugged his shoulders and responded, "Councillor Hugo, I used to be a member of the Romantics too!" Like you, I wanted to have my own power for the poor in France! ”

"Monsieur Thiers, I have heard of your deeds!" Victor. Hugo nodded.

"But!" Thiers smiled wryly, and he spread his hands and said: "As my position has become higher and higher, I have found that there is a thing called rules all the time in this country, and we all have to rely on this to do things!" ”

"Thiers, do you mean to say that everything you say and do is not your intention? Isn't the proposal to limit universal suffrage a subjective consciousness? "Victor. There was a hint of sarcasm in Hugo's words.

In response to Thiers' evasive response with the so-called "rules", Victor. Hugo couldn't look at it at all.

"No, no, no! Although we are all bound by invisible rules, most of them are my own intention! Thiers replied unabashedly: "I think democracy is a good thing, it does its best to eliminate the differences between parliamentarians, but I don't think that universal suffrage is a good principle now!" Two years ago, we chose a Napoleon! If it is not restricted, I am afraid that another Napoleon will continue to appear! ”

Thiers' sophistry and Jérôme's. Bonaparte's word was untrustworthy to Victor. Hugo actually had a sense of identity in his heart.

If the populace chooses a Napoleon again...... No! If Napoleon is really the choice of the people, then we should respect it too!

After a fleeting recognition, Victor. Hugo firmly convicted: "Congressman Thiers, this is not an excuse for you to restrict the law of universal suffrage! I believe that the people will make a rational choice, they will definitely not let a tyrant come to power! ”

"Really, won't?" A meaningful smile appeared on Thiers' lips.

"Of course!"

Despite Thiers' smile made Victor. Hugo's heart was a little more uneasy, but Victor. Hugo still responded to him steadfastly.

"Okay!" Thiers shrugged his shoulders and said sincerely: "Councillor Hugo, now you are just like me!" Mountain Sects aren't where you're going to end up, and it won't be long before you'll find out that they're not the person you're looking for! The socialists will only mess up the country, they only know how to destroy, they don't know how to build ......"

Before Thiers could finish speaking, Victor. Hugo interrupted Thiers' speech, and he said coldly: "Monsieur Thiers, I admit that you and the members of your party have some sufficient experience in governance!" ”

"Then why don't you join us!" Thiers asked Victor in disbelief. Hugo, he doesn't understand Victor. Why Hugo is stubborn.

"But your ruling policy is based on the premise of harming the interests of others, you have taken away those people's guns, and you want to take away the power of those people, and you want to gag their mouths!" Victor. Hugo mercilessly criticized Thiers: "The mountain faction may not have much experience in governing compared to you, but I believe that they will surpass you in the future!" ”

The carriage came to a slow stop, and the driver's voice came into the carriage from outside the carriage: "Monsieur Hugo, the Place des Vosges has arrived!" ”

"Thank you for the carriage! Mr. Thiers! I think it's time for me to go! "Victor. Hugo pushed the door open and left Thiers' car.

The doors closed slowly, leaving Thiers alone in the car.

"Romantic poets are always so wishful thinking!" Thiers sighed and said to himself.

On the orders of Thiers, the carriage again headed towards Victor. Hugo set off in the opposite direction.

At the same time, the Jérôme of the Elysée Palace. Bonaparte also received news of the end of the Legislative Assembly.

"Cousin, how is the Legislative Assembly?" Jérôme. Bonaparte asked the new secretary of the office, Alexander. Congressman Valevsky said.

【Alexander. Valewski (1810-1868), the illegitimate son of Napoleon I and the cousin of Napoleon III, was the son of Jérôme. Bonaparte's cousin, who served as Foreign Minister of the Second French Empire. 】

From Pesini's move to the Ministry of Public Works as a minister to the present, Valewski, who has only served as secretary for less than half a month, has been the head of the secretary's office to Jérôme. Bonaparte meticulously reported: "The party of order has won a great victory!" The law on limiting universal suffrage has been passed! ”

"Yay!" Jérôme. Bonaparte clenched his fists and shouted triumphantly.

Once the law restricting universal suffrage is enacted, it means that the Party of Order has completely trampled the cornerstone of the Republic's constitution under their feet.

How could the Legislative Assembly, having lost the blessing of the sanctity of the Constitution, fight with him!

"Still, Victor. Mr. Hugo has joined the Mountain Pie! Valewski then went on to say hello to Jérôme. Bonaparte told about Victor. Hugo joins the Montagnards and preaches on the podium.

"Sure enough, it's the same as history!" Jérôme. Bonaparte muttered to himself.

"Your Excellency, what do you need me to do!" Valewski asked Jérôme in his uncle-like voice. Bonaparte said.

"Will Victor. Mr. Hugo's speech was published in our newspaper! I'm going to let the whole of Paris know what Parliamentarian Hugo is saying! "Jérôme. Bonaparte gave the order to Valewski.

"Huh?" Valewski did not understand Jérôme. Bonaparte meant, cautious by nature, cautiously asked, "...... we are with the party of order?"

"There is no need to explain anything to them! We're not all the way! "Jérôme. Bonaparte explained to Valewski: "They are bent on restoring the monarch to whom they have been allegiated, and I ...... them."

Jérôme. Bonaparte paused and said righteously: "What I want to defend is the French system of universal suffrage!" ”

As a political chameleon, Jérôme. Bonaparte could finally tear the veil of affection, and he wanted to break the rope of the Legislative Assembly and break it to pieces.

The corners of Valewski's mouth twitched slightly, but he still faithfully executed Jérôme. Bonaparte's command.

Early in the morning of the third day.

Victor. Hugo's speech in the National Assembly was written in the Republicans with Jérôme. Bonaparte's impetus soon spread throughout Paris.

On the streets, in cafes, everyone is talking about Victor. Hugo's speech.

Victor. Hugo's name has once again swept the whole of Paris.
