Chapter 781: Family Mediator
After the visit to the Century Fair, Jérôme. Bonaparte noticed that the children's mental state was visibly sluggish.
It can be seen that they don't like the Century Fair very much. It's just that Jérôme. Bonaparte's face, so none of them said a word of dissatisfaction during the whole process.
"Let's go! Let's go back! "Jérôme. Bonaparte opened his mouth and said to the children.
When the children heard that they had returned the permit, they were immediately expressioned, and then the Victorian heroine, who was the eldest sister, walked to Jérôme. Bonaparte whispered in front of him, "Your Majesty, aren't we going to Les Invalides in Paris?" ”
"I'm not going!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shook his head and said to Princess Victoria.
Except for Albert. The people other than Edward had a smile on their faces, they had long wanted to return to the Louvre Hotel.
So, in Jérôme. Bonaparte led Albert. Edward and the others got back into the carriage and returned to the Louvre Hotel.
Wait until Jérôme. After Bonaparte had escorted them to the lobby of the Louvre Hotel, he spoke again: "Edward, would you be interested in going out for a walk with me?" ”
Albert. Edward was stunned for a moment, then nodded his head with Jérôme. Bonaparte left the Louvre Hotel together.
Albert walking on the road. Edward, tactfully asked Jérôme. Where is Bonaparte going to take him?
"Les Invalides Paris!" Jérôme. Bonaparte said in a flat tone.
Immediately, Jérôme. Bonaparte and Albert. Edward walked to Les Invalides in Paris.
By the time the two arrived near Les Invalides in Paris, it was already around 11 noon, and there was only an hour left before lunch.
"Time is running out! We need to do it soon! "Jérôme. Bonaparte urged.
The two walked briskly through the lawn on the periphery of Les Invalides and arrived at the gate of Les Invalides in Paris.
The two soldiers in charge of guarding the outside of Les Invalides in Paris immediately stopped Jérôme. Bonaparte and Albert. Edward's way, and told them that Les Invalides in Paris were not allowed to enter by ordinary people.
Jérôme. Bonaparte quickly took off his hood and asked the soldier with a smile: "Do you think I can go in with this face!" ”
The two soldiers quickly turned to Jérôme. Bonaparte saluted and said in an arrogant tone: "Your Majesty! ”
"Hmmm! You've worked hard to guard Les Invalides! "Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded and said a word to the soldier, then turned to Albert. Edward said, "Let's go in!" ”
The thought of meeting Albert, the idol in my heart. Edward also looked excited at Jérôme. Bonaparte replied, "Yes! ”
Jérôme. Bonaparte and Albert. Edward and the others entered the Paris Invalides, and then stepped down the stairs on the complex but textured ground, and soon came to the second basement floor of the Paris Invalides.
Albert. Edward's expression gradually became reverent, and as the two of them gradually deepened, Jérôme. Bonaparte and Albert. Edward walked through a golden cross and finally came to a cylindrical room.
In the center of the room are two coffins made of mahogany, which were the residence of Napoleon, Emperor of the French Empire, and Soirt, the Generalissimo of the French Empire.
"On the left lies my uncle Napoleon, and on the right is the Generalissimo of the French Empire, Soul!" Jérôme. Bonaparte pointed to the coffin and introduced it to Edward VII.
Hear Jérôme. Albert after the introduction of Bonaparte. Edward slowly came to the coffin of Emperor Napoleon, and in Jérôme. Under Bonaparte's astonished gaze, he knelt in front of the coffin of Emperor Napoleon, clasped his hands and prayed earnestly.
Jérôme. Bonaparte stood quietly in Albert. Edward watched from behind, and after a while, Albert . Edward got back to his feet and turned to Jérôme. Bonaparte thanked him: "Your Majesty, thank you very much! ”
"Nothing!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shook his head at Albert. Edward said, and then reminded again: That's right! Remember to kneel the next time you come with your parents! ”
"Rest assured! I won't trouble you! "Albert. Edward nodded at Jérôme. Bonaparte said.
[PS: Historical Albert. While accompanying Victoria and his wife to visit Les Invalides in Paris, Edward knelt down in front of the coffin of Emperor Napoleon in public!
His actions infuriated Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.
After all, Emperor Napoleon, as Britain's most intractable opponent, inflicted great damage on Britain.
Although Britain and France are still fighting because of the Crimean War, the two countries are not so harmonious that the crown prince kneels to the "enemy".
Albert. Edward's behavior is to bring shame on the entire royal family! 】
"Hmmm! Trust you! "Jérôme. Bonaparte patted Albert again. Edward's shoulder spoke to him in a solemn tone, and then asked Albert about it. Would Edward want to go to the other rooms and have a look?
"Okay!" Albert. Edward responded.
Jérôme. Bonaparte with Albert. Edward went to the sleeping places of several other famous generals (including St. Edward's. Marshal Arnaud), and intimately for Albert. Edward conducted a popular science.
However, Albert. Edward's interest in the other generals was apparently not as great as that of Emperor Napoleon.
So for Jérôme. Bonaparte's introduction was only a slight nod.
Stay until Jérôme. Bonaparte and Albert. After Edward had finished all the rooms, Jérôme. Bonaparte with Albert. Edward stepped out of Les Invalides in Paris.
It was less than 15 minutes before lunch, and there was "just happening" a carriage in the open space at the entrance to Les Invalides in Paris, and the person driving the carriage was none other than Taylor.
"Let's go!" Jérôme. Bonaparte and Albert. Edward and the two entered the carriage, and Taylor quickly waved his whip forward.
Albert inside the carriage. Edward vs. Jérôme. Once again, Bonaparte expressed his gratitude and said that Jérôme. Bonaparte gave him a respect he had never experienced before.
Jérôme. Bonaparte looked at the crown prince in front of him, he sighed again and said again: "Edward, do not resent your father! Albert's love for you is not lost to anyone! ”
"I know!" Albert. Edward smiled wryly at Jérôme. Bonaparte replied: "Your Majesty, I understand all that you have said! It's just that I really don't know how to deal with him, both my father and my mother's expectations of me are too high, and the more I don't want to live up to their expectations of me, the more I feel an unprecedented pressure.
This pressure almost crushed me! ”
"You should talk to Albert!" Jérôme. Bonaparte again against Albert. Edward suggested, "There is nothing that cannot be solved by talking!" ”
"But I don't know how to talk to him!" Albert. Edward's tone was slightly choked up at Jérôme. Bonaparte said.
"Just tell the truth!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shrugged his shoulders at Albert. Edward said: "He can still eat you!"
I'm sure Albert will understand you! ”
The hardest thing in life is to admit the blandness of the next generation after having the next generation.
Especially for someone as extraordinary as Prince Albert, it is even more difficult to admit the blandness of a child.
However, Jérôme. Bonaparte still believed that Albert was finally willing to admit it.
Wait a minute! How did I become a family dispute mediator!
Jérôme. Bonaparte suddenly found himself as if he had become a person in the nature of a neighborhood committee aunt/teacher.
Damn it! This stinky problem of being a good teacher must be changed!
Jérôme. Bonaparte blamed himself in his heart.
At this moment, the carriage slowly stopped, and Taylor, who was in the driver's seat, opened his mouth to Jérôme. Bonaparte said, "Your Majesty, the Louvre Hotel has arrived!" ”
"Let's go!!" Jérôme. Bonaparte pushed the car door and walked out, Albert. Edward was not far behind.
Wait until Jérôme. When Bonaparte met with Albert again, Jérôme. Bonaparte clearly felt that Albert was much more energetic than before.
The two men shook hands with each other when they first met, and then Albert asked Jérôme to him. Bonaparte expressed his gratitude.
"Nothing!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shook his head and replied to Prince Albert, "Edward is fine, I don't need to worry about anything at all!" ”
"Listen to your tone, you are about to become the father of my child!" Prince Albert teased.
"I wish my children could be as obedient as Edward!" Jérôme. Bonaparte replied in the same way.
Prince Albert and Jérôme. Bonaparte walked and talked, and soon entered the dining room.
This time, the restaurant is slightly different from the previous one in terms of structure, and the style of the whole restaurant is close to the style of the imperial period, and the decoration presents a simple but elegant feeling.
Jérôme. Bonaparte and Prince Albert drank a glass of red wine as usual, but Emile. Perel brought the dish up again.
Today's dishes are a little different from yesterday, with a few fewer French dishes and a few more famous British dishes.
Jérôme. Bonaparte and the two were still eating and chatting about the situation in Russia.
Jérôme. Bonaparte took the opportunity to speak to him of a little support for the Duke of Golitsyn, and Prince Albert agreed, and at the same time asked Jérôme to do so. Bonaparte assured that the Kingdom of Britain would assist the French Empire in this (the subtext was to get a piece of the pie).
