Make France Great Again

Chapter 127 The Bloodshed in Paris

June 10, 1849.

The clergy in Paris cheered as the news of the victory of the French army in Rome spread throughout Paris through the Bonaparte and the Constitution.

In the eyes of the clergy, the victory of Rome was undoubtedly a harbinger of the revival of the church, and it also dealt a major blow to those revolutionaries.

To celebrate this victory, all the clergy in Paris formed a mighty team under the leadership of the bishop. The team stopped at Place Vendôme and prayed under the bishop's guidance.

The Bishop of Reims Cathedral, located in the northeast of Paris, even went to the Elysee Palace in a carriage to express his gratitude to President Jerome Bonaparte under the "suggestion" of the Holy See... no, it should be said that it was the Holy See in exile.

This is the first time ever.

We must know that during the period of the Bourbon dynasty and the restoration of Bourbon, Reims Cathedral has always been the place where the Bourbon royal family was crowned, and the honor and status enjoyed by the Bishop of Reims during the Bourbon period can be imagined.

However, with the downfall of the Restoration Bourbon, Louis Philippe of the Kingdom of Orleans was crowned at the Paris City Hall, which symbolized that the source of royal power had changed from theocracy to secular power, and the status of Reims Cathedral was a bit embarrassing. The status is also gradually withdrawn.

Even after 18 years of suppression by the Orleans Dynasty, Reims Church still enjoys a high historical status.

The fact that the bishop himself came to the Elysee Palace to thank him was enough to surprise many.

"His Royal Highness, thank you for your help to Rome! Everything the Bonaparte family has done for the Pope and God will be favored by God..." The old man in a big red bishop's robe and a flat red round head respectfully said Blessed Jerome Bonaparte who was sitting on the chair, and hinted that they would stand by Jerome Bonaparte in accordance with Rome's will.

"Thank God for letting me do what I can for him. I will devote my whole life to maintaining the relationship with Pope Pius IX! Although the church is no longer the state religion of France, the church has penetrated into every aspect of France. , it has been integrated with France." Jerome Bonaparte also reciprocated the church and said: "I think the church should participate more deeply in the supervision of public education to prevent some French students from taking detours. I think Every secondary school in France should have a priest who will teach them what to do and what not to do! Keep them from going astray!"

The words of Jerome Bonaparte made the Bishop of Reims even more overjoyed. After 18 years of suppression, they no longer expect to return to their previous status. They only hope to make further progress on the basis of maintaining their existing industries.

Now that President Jerome Bonaparte has given them a chance, they have no reason not to take effect.

For the Archbishop of Reims, it is a pity that the ruler of France is not the Earl of Chambord he had intended, but the church cannot be hanged on a tree.

For thousands of years, the French Church has long summed up a stable winning experience.

That is, who wins and who!

As long as they can benefit the church, the French church never minds being king, even the devil!

During the Bourbon dynasty, the French church unswervingly followed the king to "punish rape and eradicate evil" and arrested the pope to France for imprisonment.

After the coronation of Emperor Napoleon, the church quickly changed its position to support his coronation.

Now it is just that the original emperor has been changed into the emperor's nephew, and the church, as a "kneeling clan", once again expressed its submission to the new ruler.

"That's really great!" Bishop of Lance shouted excitedly, with an almost flattering expression on his wrinkled face, he said nakedly: "It is a great honor for France to be able to protect France by the Bonaparte family. Think that Bonaparte should guard this country from generation to generation!"

"That depends on the will of God and the entire French people!" Jerome Bonaparte flashed a look of disdain in his eyes, and still pretended to be pious and said: "If God is really willing to let the Bonaparte family If he protects this country that is riddled with holes, then he will definitely issue a decree, am I right, Mr. Bishop!"

"Yes! That's right! Although God cannot communicate verbally, the servants he entrusts will use practical actions to speak for him!" Bishop Lance nodded to Jerome Bonaparte in response.

For a large MLM organization with more than 1,000 years of MLM history, promoting Jérôme Bonaparte is simply an easy task.

Not to mention a real, flesh-and-blood person like Jerome Bonaparte, even if it is a fictional character, the church can convince the people in the countryside that it is a real person.

After all, the French priests monopolized the right to speak at the grassroots level and blocked the information channels for the grassroots.

Just as Jérôme Bonaparte was chatting happily with the Archbishop of Reims, there was an urgent knock on the door.

Jerome Bonaparte pointed to the door and asked Bishop of Reims for his opinion.

"Easy!" Bishop Lance said softly.

"Come in!" Jerome Bonaparte said to the visitors outside the room.

Pessini pushed the door in. He glanced at the bishop of Reims and then reported to Jerome Bonaparte: "Your Excellency, there is a commotion in Place Vendôme!"

Jerome Bonaparte's unprecedented serious expression, the unpremeditated commotion in France is undoubtedly the most terrifying: "What the hell is going on?"

Pessini explained the situation to Jerome Bonaparte.

It turned out that the cause of all the commotion came from the prayers of the priests in the Place Vendome, which stimulated some believers in the Montagne. They were quite interested in the French Republic's military intervention in the Roman Republic without the instruction of the National Assembly. They couldn't hold back their emotions when they complained.

Under the deliberate guidance of some people, the Montagnard believers began to use long spears and short sticks to visit the priests in the Place Vendôme for a "friendly" visit.

A conflict is inevitable.

The Mountain Party, which had the upper hand in numbers and weapons, beat the priest on the Place Vendôme to the ground in the first round.

This happened to the venerable clergy on weekdays, who were soon expelled from the Place Vendôme by the Montagne.

If the police force hadn't arrived in time, some elderly and infirm prelates would have been beaten to death by them.

The police arrived at the Place Vendôme and quickly brought the situation under control, and many of the guys involved in the brawl were arrested and sent to prison.

"Your Excellency, these thugs must be severely punished!" Bishop Lance clamored to show those guys a good look.

The priest's blood cannot be shed in vain.
