"Of course, the government that Alexander had set up!"

Empress Augusta rightfully took Jérôme. Bonaparte replied.

"So what to do with the Empress (wife of Alexander II), the Little Tsar (son of Alexander II), and the Empress Dowager in the hands of Duke Golitsyn? What to do with the Grand Dukes of the Romanovs who live in St. Petersburg! "Jérôme. Bonaparte asked, with a playful smile on his lips.

"This ......," Empress Augusta muttered for a moment, unable to utter a word for a long time.

"The current Russian Empire is nothing more than whichever side is strong and strong, which side is sacred!" Jérôme. Bonaparte gently patted the dust off his clothes and said to Queen Augusta, "Our aim is to maintain the balance between the two forces, so that they will not be able to decide the winner in a short time!" This is in the interests of France and Württemberg!

Mother-in-law, she's still a little too emotional! ”

"Don't really talk about my mother!" Empress Augusta sneered.

"Good! I won't say it! "Jérôme. Bonaparte put his hand on the shoulder of Empress Augusta and said to her in a serious voice: "Now, go to your mother-in-law and tell her that if we choose to support Alexander's government, then she will receive the news of the demise of the Romanovs in a short time."

The reason why Golitsyn is willing to spare the life of the Romanovs is to send a signal of respect for the monarchy through them!

If we choose to be one-sided, then there is only a dead end waiting for them! ”

"Hmmm! Got it! Empress Augusta nodded to Jérôme. Bonaparte responded.

"That's right! And my sister-in-law, I'm also bothering you to explain! "Jérôme. Bonaparte continued to say a word of advice to Empress Augusta.

After Empress Augusta left, Jérôme. Bonaparte returned to the drawing room where William I was.

"It's back!" Looking at Jérôme, who was gradually walking towards the sofa. Bonaparte, a faint smile appeared on the corner of William I's mouth.

"Hmm!" Jérôme. Bonaparte nodded and sat back down on the couch, while he took a sip of the black tea that had not yet fully cooled.

"How? I'm right! William I said to Jérôme with a hint of ridicule. Bonaparte responded.

"Mother-in-law, she really embarrassed me!" Jérôme. Bonaparte put down his teacup and said with a wry smile.

"Women are like that, easy to get emotional!" William I said in a flat tone.

"Fortunately, I have asked Augusta to return to my mother-in-law's side and explain our difficulties to her!" Jérôme. Bonaparte exhaled softly and responded in a brisk tone: "I trust my mother-in-law, she will definitely understand us!" ”

"Oh?" William I looked at Jérôme curiously. Bonaparte, "What do you say?" ”

"I'm just telling them what happened!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shrugged his shoulders and replied to William I.

"Hmm!" William I responded, without delving into it.

The clock was soon approaching 6:55 a.m., and the royal steward was ready to invite Wilhelm I and Jérôme. Bonaparte went to the restaurant.

Sitting on the sofa of Wilhelm I with Jérôme. Bonaparte quickly got up and headed for the restaurant.

When Weng and his son-in-law arrived at the restaurant, there were only servants in the restaurant who were in charge of serving the meal.

Jérôme. At opposite ends of the table of Bonaparte and William I, quietly awaiting the arrival of the remaining members.

Another 3 minutes or so passed, and Empress Augusta, Queen Paulina, Olga. Grand Duchess Nikolaevna, as well as Karl Brown. The four of Alexander entered the dining room.

"Sit down!" As the host, William I assumed the posture of the head of the family and ordered the four people who had "come too late" to sit down.

Augusta sat in Jérôme. Next to Bonaparte, Queen Paulina sat beside William I, and Karl. Alexander & Olga. Nikolaevna sat in the middle of the table.

Once everyone was seated, the dinner began.

Responsible for the service of Jérôme. Bonaparte and his servants quickly poured a glass of wine for the crowd, and then William I first uttered a bunch of toasts, then emphasized that this was a family feast, and finally raised his glass and invited everyone present to have a drink.

Everyone present drank the red wine in their glasses, and William I spoke again: "Jérôme, since this is a family feast, should you also say a few words!" ”

Seeing his father-in-law hand over the right to speak to him, Jérôme. Bonaparte cleared his throat and said in a brisk tone, "Since this is a family feast, then the way I speak does not need to be so civil.

I am very grateful to my father-in-law for your warm hospitality! I am also very grateful to my eldest brother and sister-in-law for being able to go to the train station to meet me!

…… The Kingdom of Württemberg is where Augusta and I were born and raised, so to speak, our second home!

I hope that the Kingdom of Württemberg can become rich and powerful under the leadership of my father-in-law and eldest brother, and I also hope that the French Empire led by me can cooperate more closely with the Kingdom of Württemberg! ”

Jérôme. As soon as Bonaparte's words fell, a wry smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he blamed himself: "Look at me! I just said that this is a family banquet, how did I turn to other places! ”

"I think you're on good kidnapping!" Wilhelm I replied loudly: "The Kingdom of Württemberg and the French Empire should have cooperated more closely!"

It's a great benefit for both of us! ”

With that, William I raised his glass again and drank.

After the second glass of wine, everyone present had their first bite of the food.

And this first course is made by Jérôme. Sizzling venison made from deer shot by Bonaparte in the forest.

"Let's get a taste of what the prey shot by Jérôme tastes like!" William I said as he gently cut off a piece of venison with his knife and chewed it.

After a while, a happy smile appeared on William I's face.

Jérôme. Seeing this, Bonaparte also cut off a piece of venison and chewed it gently.

"Jérôme, Augusta, what are you going to do to stay here for how long!" At this moment, Queen Paulina's voice reached Jérôme. Bonaparte's ear.

Jérôme. Bonaparte hurriedly swallowed the venison and replied, "Mother-in-law, Empress Augusta and I are going to leave for Munich tomorrow!" ”

"How can you be in such a hurry! Can't stay longer! Queen Paulina asked Jérôme in surprise. Bonaparte.

"No way!" Jérôme. Bonaparte shook his head and refused: "We still have to go to Vienna!" When the time comes, they will have to go to Warsaw with Franz and them to attend Maximilian's coronation, so they don't dare to delay too long on the road! ”

"I see!" Paulina gave a look of surprise.

"Mother, I'm so sorry!" Empress Augusta also apologized to Queen Paulina, "We really can't delay too long, otherwise Franz and Sissi will not be able to explain to each other!" ”

"It's okay!" Queen Paulina waved her hand and said to Augusta, "Actually, I'm glad you were able to take the time to come!" ”

Immediately afterwards, William I discussed Jérôme. Various interesting facts about Bonaparte in the kingdom of Württemberg as a child.

"I really didn't expect that the kid who could only play pranks would become the emperor of a country!" William I sighed with emotion, and then said with a confused look in his eyes: "Jérôme, my sister would be proud of you if she were still alive!" ”

"My mother!" Jérôme. Bonaparte muttered to himself, and the memories of "childhood" also came to his mind.

Although this memory did not belong to him, he could clearly feel the mood of the original owner of the memory from this memory.

"Hey! My unfortunate sister! William I sighed again, feeling unworthy of his sister's marriage to the Prince of Montfort.

If it weren't for his sister's sake, he wouldn't have given Jérôme anything. The title of Prince of Bonaparte (the old) Prince of Montfort.

"Father-in-law, your topic is too sad! I think it's time to change the subject appropriately! Seeing that the atmosphere at the scene gradually moved towards the sad Jérôme. Bonaparte hurriedly replied to William I.

"Forget it! Don't talk about that! "William I decisively took a moment to the point.

……

The feast lasted for more than an hour, perhaps because of Jérôme. Bonaparte had Empress Augusta go to explain in advance, and there was no talk of the Russian Empire at the whole banquet.

Jérôme. Bonaparte and the others happily finished the dinner and then returned to their rooms to rest.

The next morning, Jérôme. Bonaparte and Empress Augusta left the Stuttgart royal palace in a carriage and headed for the Stuttgart train station.

When Jérôme. When Bonaparte arrived at the train station, a train to Munich, the capital of Bavaria, was ready. (In addition, the vast majority of the railways in the Kingdom of Württemberg are state-owned, and the number of private railways is scarce)

Jérôme on the train. Mr. and Mrs. Bonaparte greeted Karl on the platform. After a journey of 5 to 6 hours, the train departed again and arrived in Munich, the capital of the Kingdom of Bavaria, in the afternoon.

Receiving the news, King Maximilian II of Bavaria greeted Jérôme with his wife. Bonaparte, on his way to the royal palace, Maximilian II inquired about his father, Ludwig I, in France.

Jérôme. Bonaparte told Maximilian II that Ludwig I's life in France was not bad.

In getting Jérôme. After Bonaparte's reply, Maximilian II breathed a sigh of relief and then asked Jérôme. How long was Bonaparte going to live in Munich.

Jérôme. Bonaparte told Maximilian II that he would go to Vienna tomorrow with Augusta.
