Chapter 333: Cavour's Beauty Scheme
Jérôme. Bonaparte directly blocked all of Cavour's subsequent remarks against the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies in a short sentence. Since the boss of his own family thinks that the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies is a harmless country for humans and animals, what reason does he have to stop his boss from continuing to collect dogs?
Cavour can't point to the kingdom of the Two Sicilies and talk nonsense, they have different ambitions!
Now all Cavour can do is give Jérôme. Bonaparte left a good impression and tried to make Jérôme. Bonaparte favored them as much as he could.
"Your Majesty, we are not here to compete with the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. On the contrary, we are glad that more and more countries are able to establish friendly relations with you. Peace in Europe is a matter of European cooperation, and we regret not being able to witness your accession to the throne! "Sophisticatedly, Cavour addressed Jérôme in watertight political language. Bonaparte congratulated.
"Thank you to the Kingdom of Sardinia for recognizing the French Empire! The French Empire also sincerely wishes that the Kingdom of Sardinia will continue to grow better and better! "Jérôme. Bonaparte casually remarked, his attitude clearly a little slackward compared to the previous meeting.
If it were not for the active flattery of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, Jérôme. Bonaparte might also consider making a break with Cavour.
The current vassal state of the French Empire in the Apennine Peninsula is not only the Kingdom of Sardinia, which is located in Jérôme. The importance of Bonaparte's mind also dropped a notch.
Not to mention the fact that the Kingdom of Sardinia itself likes to make a big news from time to time, Jérôme. Bonaparte really didn't want to be kidnapped by the Kingdom of Sardinia one day.
The thing about taking people as dogs, Jérôme. Bonaparte would have done it gladly, but he could not have been led by a dog.
Cavour also heard Jérôme. The slackness in Bonaparte's words made his heart a little more anxious.
If the Emperor was really co-opted by the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies, then the Kingdom of Sardinia and the Italian nation awaited only eternal division.
Cavour was a staunch Italian nationalist, but he was also a loyal moderate monarchist who firmly believed that only the Kingdom of Sardinia could unite the Apennine Peninsula.
In order to complete the blueprint of the Apennine Peninsula in his mind, he can sacrifice everything he has.
Thinking of this, Cavour decided to take out his "secret weapon", he gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty, in order to express his apologies for not being able to participate in the coronation, our king specially ordered me to present you with a gift!" ”
Cavour deliberately put the word "gift" at home, which could not help but evoke Jérôme. Bonaparte was interested.
Although the Kingdom of Sardinia was only a medium-strength kingdom, the House of Savoy was a royal family with a long history, and it was not guaranteed that they would have a collection of rare treasures.
However, he still has little hope that the House of Savoy will be able to come up with something that appeals to him.
For Jérôme. As far as Bonaparte is concerned, whether it is a marriage to the House of Savoy or a quest for the throne for the House of Bonaparte, it is not as good as the throne under his ass.
Excessive expansion will only refocus the eyes of the continent on France, making it difficult for France.
Furthermore, why should he use his throne (the French Empire) to fight for the throne of the House of Bonaparte (Kingdom of Central Italy).
The crooked melon and cracked jujube of the Bonaparte family should change careers as soon as possible to be a rice worm.
Jérôme. Bonaparte suddenly found that since he became Emperor of the French Empire, the ambitions of the entire Bonaparte family had also grown, and many members of the Bonaparte family began to fantasize unrealistically about Jérôme. Bonaparte was able to enter the Rhineland, draw on Italy, and regain their lost throne.
For such people, Jérôme. Bonaparte really didn't bother to pay attention.
If you don't have the life to be a king, but you want to be a king by force, the result you get will only be a dead end.
"It's really breaking the bank!" Jérôme. Bonaparte continued to show his "shamelessness" to the fullest: "Please take me to thank King Victor (Emmanuel II)!" ”
Subsequently, Jérôme. Bonaparte had an expectant expression, he couldn't wait to see the "gift" in it.
"Your Majesty, please wait! Gifts will arrive at your prom tomorrow! "Cavour vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte replied.
"Good!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded and replied to Cavour: "I look forward to your gift!" ”
Subsequently, Jérôme. Bonaparte and Cavour spoke again about the Apennine Peninsula, during which Cavour continued to test Jérôme. Bonaparte's attitude towards the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies was even more subtle in the connection between Henry V and the Bourbon-Two Sicilian branch.
For Cavour's almost clumsy provocation, Jérôme. Bonaparte just laughed.
Between the interests of the state and the affection of the monarch, Jérôme. Bonaparte had reason to believe that Ferdinand II had the former above the latter.
Otherwise, Ferdinand II would not have been able to send the crown prince to communicate with the French Empire.
In the realm of Orthodoxy, Jérôme. Bonaparte remained a complete usurper.
In the midst of this exchange in the name of "literature", Jérôme. Bonaparte and Cavour did not reach a substantive exchange of views, and most of the time it was only perfunctory to each other.
Physically and mentally exhausted, Cavour said goodbye to Jérôme. Bonaparte then took the carriage back to the Sardinian Embassy in France.
All the members of the French family lived in this hotel, and he had just entered the hotel room when he heard a knock at the door before he had changed into his aching suit.
Cavour had no choice but to change into a suit and open the door, a slightly petite girl, about 13 or 4 years old, wearing a light blue dress with a pink feather in her hair. Although she is still young, she has some unusually beautiful faces, and her slender waist and age-inconsistent ** make all mature men crazy.
"Cousin!" She saluted Cavour, who was nearly 30 years his senior, and called Cavour her cousin.
Yes, she was Cavour's "secret weapon" and an important part of Cavour's plan to revive Italian unity.
This "secret weapon" was originally intended to be dedicated to Jérôme in a few years. Bonaparte, now it seems that he must use it.
"Cousin!" Count Cavour looked at his distant cousin, who was only 13 years old, with a serious expression, "The time has come for the Kingdom of Sardinia to need you!" I will send you to-morrow to the Tuileries Palace, in the presence of the Emperor! ”
"I see!" "Cousin" nodded, and in a voice like a yellow warbler, Cavour replied.
"I wish you success, my cousin, in all your ways......" Count Cavour looked unusually solemn, and in his mouth "cousin" seemed to be accomplishing a great thing.
"Cousin" nodded again in understanding.
The next evening, the ball at the Tuileries Palace officially began. Bonaparte arrived at the ball, and beside him was Francesco II, dressed in a rococo costume.
In recent times, the emperor of the French Empire has always liked to take this foreign prince with him and impart some knowledge from time to time.
If it weren't for the fact that the age difference between the two is not very large, many would have thought that it was Jérôme. Bonaparte's illegitimate son.
In Jérôme. Under Bonaparte's teaching, Francesco II did grow to a certain extent, at least he was no longer as cowardly as before, and his heart became more and more respectful of Jérôme. Bonaparte.
Jérôme. Bonaparte was also happy to see him maintain this relationship of teacher and friend, and the friendship of the monarch was nothing more than that.
"Remember that all the actions of a monarch must be in accordance with his position! For example, I'm attending an atypical aristocratic ball! "Jérôme. Bonaparte paid no attention to the opinions of the others, pointed to some of the people at the ball, and said to Francesco II beside him: "Most of them are French industrial and commercial magnates, and they probably started in the imperial period!" Communication with them doesn't have to be so cumbersome. You just need to understand what they need.
When you can't meet the needs of everyone, you have to sacrifice the interests of some people to satisfy others. That's the key to stability! ”
Francesco II looked at the guys in front of him in all kinds of "fancy clothes", and he seemed to have some experience.
"Go ahead! Try to blend in with them and you might be able to get something out of them! "Jérôme. Bonaparte waved generously and encouraged
Jérôme. After parting ways with Francesco II, Bonaparte soon saw Cavour again, and he slowly came to Cavour's and said in a brisk tone: "Monsieur Cavour, we meet again!" ”
"Your Majesty." Cavour responded deferentially: "The gift has arrived at the ball!" ”
"Huh?" Jérôme. Bonaparte showed a surprised expression, and looked at all the people and there were no gifts: "You don't mean to say that the gifts you have prepared are in the crowd!" ”
"Your Majesty, please look!" Cavour pointed into the distance.
Jérôme. Bonaparte looked in the direction of Cavour's finger, and for a moment he seemed to see an elf in a blue dress slowly walking away from him.
For a moment, Jérôme. Bonaparte wondered if he had entered the wrong world.
Could it be that you have crossed into a ** world?
With her stunning appearance and convex figure, "Cousin" successfully attracted Jérôme. Bonaparte's attention also attracted the attention of the men of the ball.
Many men wanted to invite her to dance with her, but they politely declined.
"Cousin" came to Jérôme. Bonaparte stretched out his soft and white hand in front of him and introduced himself: "Your Majesty, my name is Virginia. Aldoini! ”
