Chapter 501 Open the Door! Welcome the Great Powers!
"Deepening the relationship? Your Majesty, our previous relationship has reached this point, how do we need to deepen it! Empress Augusta spoke sarcastically to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded: "You don't want to attack two pregnant women!" ”
Despite the fact that the light in the room was so dim that Jérôme. Bonaparte could not read Empress Augusta's expression clearly, but from Empress Augusta's words, Jérôme. Bonaparte could hear that Augusta was still complaining about Jérôme. Bonaparte.
"Actually...... Actually, I'm here to apologize! "Jérôme. Bonaparte touched his nose and explained to Empress Augusta, "I really know...... You and ...... (Jérôme. Bonaparte paused and glanced at the Marquise de Alley, curled up in a quilt) She slept together...... If only I knew......"
"What are you going to do, if you know?" Empress Augusta continued to reprimand Jérôme without mercy. Bonaparte.
"That...... That one...... I'll go first! We'll talk next time! "Seeing that Jérôme was about to reach a stalemate. Bonaparte walked away, and when he walked to the gate to prepare to leave Augusta's room, he turned to Augusta and said, "Augusta......"
"What? Your Majesty, are you going to stay overnight? There are no extra beds here! Augusta's voice whispered to Jérôme. Bonaparte's ear.
"I'm sorry! I'm not a good husband! "Jérôme. After apologizing to Augusta, Bonaparte turned and left the room without looking back.
There was silence in the room again, and after a while, a small sobbing appeared in the room, voiced by none other than Empress Augusta.
The Marquise of Alai, who slept next to Empress Augusta, heard the Queen's short sobs, and suddenly felt that she was the worst woman in the world, so that such a kind Empress ...... (From this point of view, Jérôme. Bonaparte's moral gold body for Empress Augusta is still relatively successful)
"Your Highness, I'm really sorry!" The Marquise d'Alai whispered an apology to Empress Augusta, "I will leave France early tomorrow morning and disappear forever from the presence of His Majesty." ”
With that, the Marquise d'Alai prepared to get up and leave the Tuileries Palace, and return to her place where she called home.
"Nope! You can't go! Augusta grabbed the Marquise of Alai by the arm and wouldn't let her go.
"Your Highness, I am a sinful woman! My existence will only disrupt the happy life of you and His Majesty the Emperor! The Marquis of Alai replied to Empress Augusta, "Please let me get out of here, out of France!" ”
"After you're gone, will the emperor become single-minded?" Empress Augusta sighed, shook her head to herself, and said, "No! He won't be like that! He will continue to go to various social places in search of his favorite prey! ”
"Your Majesty, he shouldn't be such a person!" The Marquise of Alai tried to defend Jérôme. Bonaparte's reputation.
"I know he's not like that!" Empress Augusta wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and calmly analyzed: "But if Paris needs him to be like that, he will become like that." He once told me that Paris is an open and tolerant city, and that the monarch who can control the city must also be in line with the character of the city itself. Therefore, he must always stand at the forefront of the times and guide the trend, and not let the trend push forward. ”
Lover's culture is an indispensable product of the whole of Paris, and behind every person who has made a name for himself in Paris, there will be two or three lovers pushing them forward.
The people of Paris are also happy to see the lace news of many successful people, which they take as talking points.
The unlucky monarch Louis XVI was criticized by the people of Paris for his weakness because he loved only the Queen of Cakes.
On the contrary, Louis XV, who caused France to become in debt and planted the seeds of the destruction of the Bourbon dynasty, is remembered only for the story of him and Madame de Pondouba.
This is Paris, always at the forefront of its time.
A Paris that neither monarchy nor religion can completely tame.
"After you're gone! The Emperor, in order to fill the void left by your departure, will inevitably let others enter the Tuileries Palace! Empress Augusta replied in a wistful tone, "In that case, I'm going to get acquainted with my 'new adversary' again!" ”
"Your Highness!" The Marquise d'Arley lowered her voice, and at this moment she felt some sympathy for the empress.
"Actually, our majesty is much better than the monarchs of other countries! My father, my brothers, surrounded by many ladies! Augusta could only say to the Marquise de Alai with bitter pleasure: "Since I have chosen to marry him, then I should have had such a thing happen a long time ago." But...... But ......"
Empress Augusta sobbed again, and the Marquise of Alai took Empress Augusta's hand without speaking.
……
On the other hand, Jérôme rushed out of Augusta's room. Bonaparte looked at the seemingly endless corridor in front of him, and for a moment did not know where to go.
Never mind! Find a bedroom to deal with!
Right here in Jérôme. Bonaparte was ready to deal with Jérôme along with finding a bedroom to deal with the night. The door to Bonaparte's left side opened.
Jérôme. Bonaparte subconsciously glanced at the Vilnia, who was wrapped in the coat of Lev's dress, and appeared in Jérôme. Bonaparte's face.
"Your Majesty!" Vilnia to Jérôme. Bonaparte gave a gift, and Lev's dress looked unique on her body.
"Huh? Why haven't you slept yet? "Jérôme. Bonaparte asked Vilnia.
"Aren't you the same!" Vilnia vs. Jérôme. Bonaparte replied, and then to Jérôme. Bonaparte issued an invitation: "Do you want to enter and sit!" ”
Jérôme, who had no interest in the beginning. The Bonaparte ghost made a miraculous attempt to enter Vilnia's room.
……
At noon the next day, Jérôme got out of bed. Bonaparte looked at the marks he had left from the night he had fought all night, and couldn't help touching his chin, then looked at Vilnia, who was naked beside him, and shook his head.
This little girl was a little bolder yesterday!
Jérôme. Bonaparte gently touched Vernia's milky cheek with his hand, then picked up the clothes scattered on the floor and put them on, kissed Vilnia lightly on the forehead and left the room and went downstairs.
Came to the hall of Jérôme. Bonaparte happened to run into Mocal, and he hurriedly asked Mocal to prepare some food.
"Your Majesty, Empress Augusta and the Marquise of Alai are dining in the dining room!" Mocal vs Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.
"Take me then!" Jérôme. Bonaparte had an embarrassed look on his face.
Under the leadership of Mocal, Jérôme. Bonaparte entered the dining-room and simply greeted Empress Augusta and the Marquise of Alai.
The Marquise of Alai saw Jérôme. Bonaparte immediately got up and saluted, and Augusta slowly got up to greet Jérôme. Greetings from Bonaparte.
"Hmm...... Have a seat! Have a seat! "Jérôme. Bonaparte motioned for Augusta to sit down with the Marquise d'Alai, and then chatted with Augusta and the Marquise d'Alay.
"Your Majesty, how was your rest last night?" Empress Augusta asked Jérôme. Bonaparte said.
"It's okay!" Jérôme. Bonaparte did not dare to tell Augusta that he was staying in Vilnia's room.
"Oh!" Augusta seems intent on letting Jerome go. Bonaparte, she did not continue to dwell on this topic.
Jérôme. Bonaparte breathed a sigh of relief, but he didn't know that Augusta was just preparing for the next attack.
After a while, Augusta spoke again: "Your Majesty, you are resting in Vilnia's room, right?" ”
"Ah......" Jérôme. Bonaparte paused for a few seconds and denied it: "No! Absolutely nothing! ”
"Then why hasn't Vilnia gotten up at this time?" Augusta asked Jérôme with a smirk. Bonaparte said.
"Maybe it's because that girl is more sleepy!" Jérôme. Bonaparte forcibly explained to Augusta, and then asked Augusta, "Do you want me to go and have a look?" ”
"No!" Augusta shook his head at Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.
The next part of the dining session, Jérôme. Neither Bonaparte nor Augusta said a word.
After the meal, Jérôme. Bonaparte returned to his study to attend to his affairs, and Vilna and the Marquise d'Alai went to the salon of women's literature hosted by Princess Mathilde.
Return to the study of Jérôme. Bonaparte, while processing the documents submitted to him in the naval department, accidentally saw the name of the Marquis of Alai.
The document was sent from the Far East by the Marquis of Alai about four months ago.
The document reads as follows: With the joint efforts of the French Marines and the Juaf Regiment, the Imperial French Navy occupied the Kingdom of Hawaii.
The Kingdom of Hawaii was forced to surrender to the French Empire, promising the Kingdom of Hawaii to become a vassal state of the French Empire, allowing it to garrison troops in the Kingdom of Hawaii, and compensating the French Empire for all losses in this campaign, amounting to about 30 million francs.
Of course, the destruction of the French Empire was opposed by the ambassador of the United States of America to Hawaii and the British ambassador to Hawaii.
The Marquis of Alai turned a deaf ear to this, and even had crooked thoughts about the American warships that were being replenished in Shanghai.
In order to teach the United States of America a lesson, Duke Arley sent his navy (4 steam battleships) to follow the American warships all the way to Japan.
Originally, the French and American armies reached a certain compromise in Japanese waters, and the American Navy issued an artillery bombardment order against Edo, which was aimed at the Tokugawa shogunate, and the ships outside the port of Edo were directly destroyed by the combined fleet of the French and American navies, and even the batteries and residential areas outside the port also became the targets of the combined fleet, and the poor Edo residents trembled at the majesty of the combined French and American fleet.
The Tokugawa shogunate had to send emissaries to the combined Franco-American fleet to implore them not to shell Edo again, and that the shogunate could agree to all the conditions they offered.
The Franco-American combined fleet, which had received a reply from the Tokugawa shogunate, stopped shelling, and after a lengthy bargain, the Franco-American fleet offered more harsh conditions than the historical Black Ship Incident.
The Tokugawa shogunate was forced to agree to open the ports of Shimoda (southeast of Shizuoka Prefecture, southwest of Tokyo) and Hakodate (present-day Hakodate, southwestern Hokkaido) in accordance with the original historical Treaty of Friendship and Mutual Assistance between Japan and the United States, where American ships could be coaled and watered, and received supplies of grain and other goods. The treaty also allowed the United States to post consuls in the two ports and enjoy most-favored-nation status.
It is also necessary to compensate the combined fleet of France and the United States for the loss of shells in this war, and to pay 100,000 pounds each to the United States and France.
Faced with the strong ships and cannons of the Western powers, the Tokugawa shogunate could only break their teeth and swallow it in their stomachs, and they agreed to all the conditions of the Franco-American combined fleet.
After that, the navy of the United States left the Tokugawa shogunate contentedly.
The Marquis of Alai, who bullied the shogunate, ordered his troops to attack the Satsuma Domain, and under the attack of the French fleet, all the naval forces that destroyed the Satsuma Domain were wiped out in one fell swoop.
