Make France Great Again

Chapter 350 Marriage to Württemberg

"Hmm...my cousin is coming?"

Although Jérôme Bonaparte was ready to dedicate his body to the continuation of the empire, he did not expect that this day would come so soon, and that the person who would accompany him through the next few decades would be that child. Little girl with a runny nose.

That's right! In Jerome Bonaparte's only memory, Augusta seemed to have maintained this image. He remembered that "he" was only 9 years old at that time, and Augusta was only 6 years old.

With the death of Jerome Bonaparte's mother and various changes in Prince Montfort, Jerome Bonaparte, his sister Mathilde Bonaparte, and his eldest brother (death) ) left Württemberg together.

Counting from that time, Jérôme Bonaparte had not seen the "Slug" for almost 20 years.

Now Jerome Bonaparte is 29 years old, and Augusta should also be 26 years old.

"Your Majesty, Princess Augusta is already here!" Walewski emphasized, and then added: "However, she is here in the name of sojourn!"

"Where does she live now?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked next.

"At Princess Mathilde's home!" Valewski replied: "As soon as Princess Augusta arrived in Paris, Princess Mathilde invited her to her mansion!"

"Then..." Jerome Bonaparte hesitated for a moment and asked again: "Should I go there?"

"It's up to you!" Walewski did not give an answer, but left it to the emperor himself.

"Then..." Jérôme Bonaparte put his raised hand down again and muttered in a low voice: "Let's wait a moment!"

Then Jérôme Bonaparte invited Valewski to sit down and talk with Valewski, and learned from Valewski the news about Prince Metternich's seclusion and the news about Felix Schiff. Watzenberg's physical condition.

A large part of the reason why Katarina Wacha suddenly regretted her decision when she was about to succeed was because Felix Schwarzenberg's health was deteriorating.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk... It seems that the physical condition of our new Austrian Prime Minister is not optimistic!" A gloating smile appeared on the corner of Jerome Bonaparte's mouth.

Although it is said that Felix Schwarzenberg has persisted longer than he did in history and has exceeded the tasks assigned to him by history, Jérôme Bonaparte can be sure that once Felix Schwarzenberg... After Schwarzenberg passed away, the diplomatic situation of the Austrian Empire would quickly decline.

"By the way, have you met Franz Joseph?" Jerome Bonaparte asked Valewski.

Walewski nodded.

"How do you feel?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked Valewski what he thought.

"Your Majesty, the moment I met Franz Joseph, I felt like I had traveled to before the Middle Ages! When talking to him, I felt as if I was talking to a piece of wood with no ability to express!" Valev Ski described Jérôme Bonaparte in an exaggerated tone: "It's really hard to imagine who trained him to be like that. Every action and every step seems to be carefully designed. I feel What I am facing is no longer a living person, but a puppet on strings that can be manipulated by others."

Walewski paused and then said: "And from his eyes, I can see the pride of blood!"

"The Habsburg court is always accompanied by messy rules!" Jerome Bonaparte shrugged, opened his hands and embraced the air with a smile and said: "Rejoice! We live in a free country!"

"Yeah!" Walewski nodded, and then added: "Our country is just the opposite, too free!"

Through Walewski's description of Franz Joseph, Jérôme Bonaparte can be sure that Franz Joseph's character has not changed much. He is like a man who has traveled from the early days of the enlightened monarchy in the 18th century. Like the previous monarchs, they subconsciously rejected all new institutional changes.

Little did they know that times had changed, and Habsburg was crumbling under the wave of nationalism. Franz Joseph should have been a flood relief expert, but he became the person who helped the empire nail the last screw in the coffin.

Especially after the death of Felix Schwarzenberg, Joseph Franz's foreign policy made people feel like the "Austria Pill".

"Maybe!" Jerome Bonaparte said with a smile on his face.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in!" Jerome Bonaparte shouted.

The door to the study room was opened, and Wilnia entered the study room.

Vernia who entered the study looked at Jérôme with a straight face, and after a long time she said: "Princess Mathilde asked you to come over!"

Seeing the angry expression on Vernia's face, Jérôme Bonaparte grinned.

"Your Majesty, she..." Walewski, who had not stayed in France for nearly half a year, looked at Vernia in confusion.

"I almost forgot!" Jérôme Bonaparte patted his forehead gently and introduced to Valewski: "This is Vernia, and you will be my exclusive secretary from now on!"

Jerome Bonaparte deliberately emphasized the word "exclusive" again and again.

Valley/span Valewski instantly understood what Jérôme Bonaparte meant, and he hurriedly saluted the "Madame Pompadour" in front of him and half-jokingly said: "Hello, Madame Vernia! "

Vernia's face turned slightly red, and then she glared at Jérôme Bonaparte who was watching the excitement "aggressively".

Jerome Bonaparte blinked when he saw this, showing a harmless expression.

"Since it's the princess' invitation, I'll take my leave!" Walewski immediately stood up and left.

Jérôme Bonaparte also stood up and sent Walewski out of the study door, then turned back to Vernia and said, "Let's go!"

Jérôme Bonaparte and Vernia arrived at the gate of the Tuileries Palace and left the Tuileries Palace in the carriage that Vernia had brought.

Since the carriage itself is no different from an ordinary carriage, and the distance between the Tuileries Palace and the Mathilde Palace is not too far, the cavalry responsible for escorting Jerome Bonaparte on weekdays is not Didn't leave with them.

Jérôme Bonaparte and Vernia, who were sitting face to face in the carriage, looked at each other in silence.

After a while, Jerome Bonaparte asked in a frivolous tone: "Don't you have anything to say?"

Wilnia lowered her head and remained silent. After a while, soft sobbing came from the car.

Upon seeing this, Jérôme Bonaparte hurried to where Vernia was, took out his handkerchief and carefully wiped her tears for Vernia, while gently stroking her back and said: "Don't cry! I'm not I’m leaving you forever!”

"But...but...you are getting married!" Vernia fell on Jerome Bonaparte's lap and sobbed.

Tears and snot remained on Jerome Bonaparte's recently ordered trousers. Seeing this, Jerome Bonaparte could only gently caress Vernia's back and say softly: "You have to understand ! Each of us lives in this world involuntarily, just like you are burdened with the expectations of some people. I am also burdened with many expectations. We cannot do anything according to our own temperament. "

"I... know! I just... just..." Wilnia sobbed while replying intermittently to Jerome Bonaparte.

Of course, Wilnia knew that given her status, it was simply impossible to serve as the legal wife of an emperor.

The most she can do is get a title as distinguished as "Mrs. Pontuba". Likewise, she has seen too many examples of being abandoned, and she doesn't want to be abandoned.

"Don't worry! I won't abandon you!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Wilnia in a gentle voice while stroking Wilnia's back.

The carriage stopped in front of the mansion for a while, and Vernia regained her composure and raised her head from Jerome Bonaparte's lap.

After regaining her composure, Vernia quickly apologized to Jérôme Bonaparte and said: "Your Majesty is really sorry, I..."

Jérôme Bonaparte stretched out his hand to gently straighten Vernia's messy hair, shook his head and said with a smile: "Nothing!"

After saying that, Jerome Bonaparte put his handkerchief on his thigh and wiped it.

"I..." Wilnia looked at her "masterpiece" with a blushing face.

After repeatedly wiping with a handkerchief, no traces could be seen on the trouser legs. Jérôme Bonaparte stood up and stood in the carriage to tidy up his clothes. Then, after helping Vernia tidy up, the two of them walked out together. carriage.

Jerome Bonaparte and Vernia came to the gate of Mathilde's mansion together.

He knocked lightly on the door, and soon a maid appeared.

"Your Majesty!" The maid quickly saluted the second she saw Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Yes!" Jérôme Bonaparte nodded slightly, pointed to the interior of the mansion and asked, "Is my sister still in there?"

"Her Royal Highness Princess Mathilde and Her Royal Highness Princess Augusta have been waiting for you for a long time!" the maid hurriedly responded to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"That's good!" Jérôme Bonaparte and Vernia entered the mansion together, and they parted ways at the stairs on the first floor.

"Please come with me!" The maid in the mansion hurriedly led the way.

Jerome Bonaparte came to the door of a room on the second floor, and he gently opened the door.

Mathilde Bonaparte and Augustus appeared on the other side of the door.

"My dear brother, you are finally here!"
