Chapter 319: The Empire is the Republic

See Jérôme. Bonaparte assured him with a serious face that he would improve the French public health system, and the doctor believed it a little, and his eyes gradually changed from stern to soft.

"Your Excellency, your illness is not a serious illness, you can fully recover after drinking two more doses!"

As he spoke, the doctor pulled out two more vials of the green viscous potion from his medicine box.

Looking at the two vials of viscous potion in the doctor's audience, Jérôme. Bonaparte had a look of resistance on his face, and the bitter water in his abdomen was churning back and forth as if he had received a specific signal, which was extremely uncomfortable.

After a while, the "overturned rivers and seas" were pacified. Bonaparte pointed to the potion and asked, "Are these two potions still drunk as before?" ”

The doctor shook his head at Jérôme. Bonaparte responded, "Not really! If you don't like the smell of the potion is unbearable, you can add water to dilute the potion. ”

"What!" Jérôme. Bonaparte looked at the doctor in front of him in amazement, and at this time he couldn't believe his ears: "You just said that the potion can be mixed with water to drink!" ”

"That's right!" The doctor nodded in response, "If you can't mix it with water, then no one wants to try something so bitter and astringent!" ”

After speaking, a shallow smile appeared on the corner of the doctor's mouth.

Jérôme. Bonaparte could be sure that the bottle of potion just now was definitely something he had deliberately failed to remind himself.

"Speaking of which! Just now I ...... "Jérôme. Bonaparte spoke with a hint of anger.

"Your Excellency, I'm really sorry!" The doctor decisively addressed Jérôme. Bonaparte apologized, and then calmly responded: "If you really cure me, then I have nothing to say!" ”

The doctor's attitude of admitting mistakes made Jérôme. Bonaparte did not continue to hold him accountable, and he (referring to Jérôme. Bonaparte could only respond with a sneer: "Don't take it as an example."

Subsequently, Jérôme. Bonaparte ordered Morny to pay the medical bills and send the doctor away.

Faced with the sky-high medical expenses of 2,000 francs from Morny, the doctor did not accept it and asked Jérôme. Bonaparte expressed his reason why he chose to help Jérôme. Bonaparte was treated just to give him some advice on hygiene, as long as Jérôme. It would be nice for Bonaparte to be able to accept his advice.

Seeing that the doctor refused to accept the medical bills, Jérôme. Bonaparte did not dare to force it, and he ordered Morny to send the doctor back.

After Morni left, Jérôme. Bonaparte began to think about the department's advice that the doctor had said, and he had considered Jérôme for a long time. Bonaparte was determined to try to establish a nursing hospital upon his return to Paris.

As the doctor just said, a good nurse can effectively reduce the mortality rate of patients.

In order to prevent himself from forgetting about the new cumbersome trivialities. Bonaparte once again pulled out the yellowed letter paper, took out a quill dipped in ink and wrote down all his plans, this time using Paris as a testing ground.

If the public health system is maintained well, it is not impossible to extend it to France.

Thought of hygiene, Jérôme. Bonaparte thought of the dirty and messy conditions of the Saint-Denis and Montmartre districts, and he understood that in order to solve the problem at the root, it was necessary to carry out a large-scale transformation of Paris, to make Paris a modern city, a project that only one person could do.

The plan to "transform Paris" was also taken into account by Jérôme. Bonaparte wrote on letterhead to prevent himself from forgetting.

Right here in Jérôme. The sound of Martin's boots stepping on the wooden staircase as Bonaparte was "filling in the gaps" reached his ears. Bonaparte looked up at the open door.

A few seconds later, Strasbourg commander Regnio appeared in Jérôme. In front of Bonaparte, he was followed by the deputy commander and the chief of staff of the front.

"Your Majesty!" Commander Regnio entered the room and straightened up to Jérôme. Bonaparte saluted and said loudly.

Jérôme. Without saying a word, Bonaparte stood up and saluted Commander Regnio, and the etiquette between the armies was not exempt even as the supreme commander, and only in this way could he truly be consistent.

After the two sides exchanged a few polite words, Commander Regnio addressed Jérôme. Bonaparte said that the mayor of Strasbourg, the mayor of the Eastern Region, senior officials of the province of Lower Rhineland and celebrities from Strasbourg were already waiting for Jérôme at the town hall. Bonaparte came and invited Jérôme. Bonaparte followed them to Strasbourg.

[PS: Strasbourg is not only the capital of the Eastern Region, but also the capital of the Lower Rhineland, and also the front line of France's war against Germany. 】

Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded at Commander Regnio and followed Regnio and the others out of the hotel.

Before parting, Jérôme. Bonaparte specially instructed the guards in charge of guarding the inn to inform the returning Morny of his departure to the town hall.

After leaving the hostel, Jérôme. Bonaparte rode with Commander Regnio to the town hall to protect Jérôme. Bonaparte's was still yesterday's hussars in imperial uniforms.

From the hostel to the town hall, all the way to Jérôme. Bonaparte was warmly welcomed by the inhabitants of Strasbourg, who welcomed Jérôme in warm "German". Bonaparte.

Jérôme. Bonaparte smiled and courted these pure Frenchmen, who believed that as long as they identified themselves as French and obeyed the French constitution, they were truly French, and the use of words could not hide a warm French heart.

Moreover, the actions of Alsace-Lorraine in history have been perfectly illustrated, they are true French, and any careerist who tries to divide Alsace-Lorraine with language is bound to be resisted.

Amid the cheers of the populace, Jérôme. Once again, Bonaparte arrived at the door of the town hall, where the mayor of the Eastern Region, senior officials and the mayor of Strasbourg greeted Jérôme. Bonaparte.

Jérôme. After shaking hands with them, Bonaparte looked at the crowd at the town hall and made an impromptu speech: "Thank you, people of Strasbourg, for voting in my firm affirmation last December. It is because of you that I was able to save France from the chaos! You saved France! ”

After the first paragraph, Jérôme. Bonaparte politely bowed to the crowd in Strasbourg.

The crowd erupted with the slogan "Long live the Emperor".

After the end of the slogan, Jérôme. Bonaparte continued: "...... We all know that the republican system of 1851 was on the verge of extinction, and that the parties in Parliament could not mourn the demise of the system, but hoped to raise their banner on the wreckage that was still floating. Now, the Second Republic has been destroyed and the Third Republic has been established.

Many parties think that I am about to abandon the republic, and here I will solemnly accuse the plaintiff, and I will never abandon the republican spirit. ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte skillfully used the republican spirit to disguise his imperial desires.

The mayor of the Eastern Region, senior officials and mayors of the Eastern Region heard from the Jérôme Governor. When Bonaparte would not abandon the republic, there was a slight doubt on his face.

Could it be that their sycophants really hit the horse's leg?

Jérôme's next sentence dispelled all their doubts: "So what is the republican spirit?" In my opinion, it is the implementation of the universal suffrage system, as long as the universal suffrage system still exists, then the republican spirit will never disappear, and the empire will not be! The republic or not, it's just a different name!

Could it be that empire must be able to represent war? Does the republic necessarily represent peace? ”

Jérôme. Bonaparte questioned, and the town hall fell silent, and he shook his head to himself: "No! Not really! It seems to me that empire does not mean war, on the contrary it means peace. To be able to make peace under a moderate system, the revolutionary fanaticism has dissipated, and we should cherish peace even more, and empire is peace!

But I also admit that I have a lot of conquest to do, as much as the Emperor. Like him, I want to reconcile the interests of all parties and bring into the flood of the people all the hostile tributaries that exterminate each other and mean no one else, we want to gradually increase the number of railways, improve more road networks, build one steel processing plant after another, we must protect the interests of the working people and the interests of small and medium-sized entrepreneurs as much as possible, and the government should support small and medium-sized enterprises...... I believe that with our joint efforts, France will definitely move towards a new path!

An empire is a republic! ”

Finally Jérôme. Bonaparte ended with "the empire is the republic", and after a brief silence at the town hall, there was nothing but more applause and cheers.

The slogan "Long live the emperor" is even more upside down.

In the midst of fanatical slogans, Jérôme. Bonaparte waved his hand and entered the town hall under the guidance of the town hall officials.

"Your Majesty, your speech is really good!" The Governor of the Eastern Region flattered Jérôme. Bonaparte patted the horse.

Jérôme. Bonaparte smiled and did not speak, he knew too well the discipline of this group of bureaucrats, not to mention that he was now favored by the stars, and if he showed any signs of losing power, these fellows would not hesitate to abandon them.

Under the leadership of the regional governor and others, Jérôme. In the meeting hall of the town hall, Bonaparte met with the luminaries of the Eastern Region.

The miners, who had been greatly favored by the railways and the steel works, were very enthusiastic about Jérôme. Bonaparte, Jérôme. Bonaparte also encouraged the miners and factory owners to serve France more, and hinted that their government would give the eastern governments an appropriate tax policy in the next move, as long as they were able to actively buy the French national debt that was about to be issued.

The mine owners immediately patted their chests to Jérôme. Bonaparte pledged that he would buy government bonds enthusiastically.

In the midst of laughter, Jérôme. Bonaparte completed half of his trip to Strasbourg.
