Make France Great Again

"My dear brother, you are finally back!"

Hearing the sinister tone coming from Mathilde Bonaparte's mouth, Jérôme Bonaparte showed a helpless expression on his face.

Of course he understood that his sister was dissatisfied with him for not taking the initiative to visit. After all, it was he who was getting married, not Mathilde. The woman (Württemberg) has been delivered to my doorstep, and it is really unethical to not want to meet her for the first time.

"I'm really sorry!" In order to prevent his sister from continuing to "sneer" at him, Jérôme Bonaparte immediately surrendered and apologized: "I was just discussing some financial matters with Minister Magnet..."

Jérôme Bonaparte once again pulled Magnier out as a shield. In this way, the delay caused by Vernia's crying was well explained.

Although his sister often mocked him verbally (Jérôme Bonaparte was used to it), she cared more about the stability of the empire than anyone else.

During the period when Jérôme Bonaparte was president and after he became emperor, Mathilde was responsible for all matters (social) in the Tuileries Palace and the Elysée Palace.

This includes, but is not limited to, things like holding literary salons, donating to welfare hospitals, and organizing charity galas.

Mathilde takes part of the credit for the Bonaparte family being able to have such a good reputation in Paris and even France.

Sure enough, after Mathilde heard Jérôme Bonaparte discussing with Finance Minister Magnet, she naturally thought of the recent issuance of bonds by the Ministry of Finance. Her expression changed from frivolous to serious and asked: "What happened in finance?" Question? Do you need my help?"

"No need!" Jérôme Bonaparte shook his head and responded: "The current momentum of short-term government bonds is good, and the Magne Plan may issue a new round of government bonds in the near future!"

"It's okay!" A smile appeared on Mathilde's face again. She suddenly remembered that there were more than just herself and her brother in the room, but the topic just now seemed not to be related to what was going on today, so Mathilde He quickly turned to the girl next to him and showed a playful smile: "I'm really sorry..."

"Nothing! Sister Mathilde!" Princess Augusta of Württemberg showed a soft smile, and then turned her eyes to Jerome Bonaparte.

Jérôme Bonaparte also set his sights on his cousin Augusta.

At this time, Augusta was wearing a fluffy white court dress. Her round and fair face was inlaid with a pair of clear, light blue eyes, which made her look particularly charming. Her other four features were also very dignified, with her black hair hanging loosely. Her hair hangs down like a waterfall, giving her an aura like the big sister next door. The only drawback is that her breasts are so ordinary, which makes her less attractive.

(PS: Historically, Augusta got married on June 12, 1851. Here, due to Jérôme Bonaparte launching a coup to ascend the throne, the Kingdom of Württemberg decided to wait.)

Compared to the slightly eccentric Vernia and the "acerbic" Mathilde, Augusta obviously has more royal aura.

Jérôme Bonaparte could not connect the graceful princess in front of him with the snot-nosed girl from more than ten years ago.

What a transformation of women!

Jérôme Bonaparte sighed involuntarily.

Later, Mathilde Bonaparte enthusiastically helped Jérôme Bonaparte connect with Augusta.

Jerome Bonaparte also gradually became familiar with Augusta.

"I'll leave as soon as I have something else to do!" After seeing that there was no longer any obstacle to communication between the two, Mathilde Bonaparte also stood up and left at the right moment.

Only Jérôme Bonaparte and Augusta were left in the room. They looked at each other and neither of them spoke.

After a while, Jérôme Bonaparte decided to break the silence and spoke first: "Cousin, you have grown up! I remember you were so tall when we last met!"

As he spoke, Jérôme Bonaparte gestured to Augusta at her height in memory.

"Huh?" Augusta also recalled the memory of being with Jérôme Bonaparte. She responded with the same smile: "Your Majesty, that was almost twenty years ago!"

"It's better not to call me Your Majesty!" Jérôme Bonaparte waved his hand and said to Augusta: "Let's just call me by my previous name!"

"Yes! Your Majesty..." Augusta quickly changed his words: "Cousin!"

Jérôme Bonaparte and Augusta talked in the room for a long time, and the memories made the two completely eliminate familiarity and become intimate.

Mathile, who was standing outside the door, eavesdropped on the bursts of laughter coming from the room. She also had a pleased smile on her face and said to herself: "It's not bad!"

Although Augusta's cousin is not too stunning (the aesthetics of France and even Europe are related to breasts), in general, she has a cheerful and intelligent personality.

With her in charge of the affairs of the Tuileries Palace, Mathilde would be able to feel a little more at ease.

My younger brother is good at everything, but he doesn't care about the ball and the connection between the nobles.

Rather than communicating with the traditional aristocracy, his younger brother prefers to communicate with the nouveau riche (the industrial bourgeoisie, bankers, and soldiers).

From time to time, they were invited to the Tuileries Palace for parties, and they even developed a rule of having one small party every week and one big party every half month.

If it weren't for his help, the Bonaparte family would really become a nouveau riche family in other people's eyes.

it's good now! With Augusta's help, Mathilde no longer has to worry about the ball.

Mathilde, whose thoughts were still stuck in the aristocratic class, did not know that the influence that the bourgeoisie could exert could completely destroy the entire aristocratic class, causing the aristocracy to lose its last piece of cultural purity.

In general, everything always has two sides. On the surface, Jérôme Bonaparte was ostracized by some established aristocratic forces, causing the Bonaparte family to almost return to the ranks of the nouveau riche. However, he was also shunned by the majority of the nouveau riche bourgeoisie and the middle class. Like, many of the Orleanist bourgeois upstarts have completely become supporters of the Bonapartists.

In the 19th century, when the influence of the old aristocracy was still prevalent, the only person who could put aside his dignity and treat the new bourgeoisie as an equal was Jérôme Bonaparte.

Even Britain, which claims to be a bourgeois monarchy, also reveals its contempt for the new rich.

Mathilde was very satisfied with the "brothers and sisters" in the room, and she also began to think about the wedding.

In the room, Jérôme Bonaparte and Augusta were still chatting enthusiastically. The two had been chatting for nearly two hours. There seemed to be endless topics between them.

Augusta's intelligence convinced Jerome Bonaparte that his cousin was indeed the most suitable candidate for the queen.

Stunning appearance and perfect figure are not necessary conditions for a queen. The most important criterion is political wisdom.

Especially in a country like France, neither Louis XVI’s Cake Queen nor the historical Queen Eugénie was a qualified queen.

A stupid queen will only hasten the demise of a regime.

If the original Queen of Cake could have had the same political wisdom as his mother Theresa, then the Bourbon dynasty would not have been destroyed by the Revolution.

In the same way, if Empress Eugenie had been as wise as Empress Josephine, the first wife of Emperor Napoleon, the collapse of the Second French Empire would not have been accelerated.

Thinking of this, Jerome Bonaparte made up his mind and said "affectionately" to Augusta: "Cousin, are you willing to serve as the most noble being in France! You will witness the glory with me in the years to come. !”

"I..." Princess Augusta naturally understood that the reason why she appeared here was to closely connect the Kingdom of Württemberg with France. She responded firmly: "Your Majesty, I am willing to be your wife!"

Seeing his cousin Augusta agree to the marriage, Jérôme Bonaparte grabbed Augusta's hand, put it to his mouth, and sealed his lips.

"Welcome to France! Queen!"

The door to the room slowly opened, and Jerome Bonaparte walked out holding Princess Augusta's hand.

Mathilde, who was standing at the door, looked at Jérôme Bonaparte with relief.

"Thank you! Sister!" Jérôme Bonaparte expressed his gratitude to Mathilde Bonaparte.

Mathilde Bonaparte nodded with satisfaction and replied: "Well! You are finally more mature!"

Later, Jérôme Bonaparte brought Augusta to his father, Prince Montfort.

At the request of Jérôme Bonaparte, Prince Montfort summoned all members of the Bonaparte family living in Paris.

In front of many members of the Bonaparte family, Jérôme Bonaparte publicly announced that Augusta would soon become the queen of the French Empire.

All the Bonapartists except Pierre Bonaparte smiled.

As for why Pierre Bonaparte is depressed, the reason is very simple, according to the order of succession of the Bonaparte family.

If Jérôme Bonaparte unfortunately dies, find Bookstore www.zhaoshuyuan.com Pierre Bonaparte will be the first heir, and can be said to be the crown prince of the Bonaparte family.

The arrival of Princess Augusta made it very likely that Pierre Bonaparte would miss the throne, so his attitude towards Augusta can be imagined.

Of course, Pierre Bonaparte did not know that Jérôme Bonaparte had already considered incorporating his "brother" and "nephew" into the Bonaparte family.

Once they join the Bonaparte family, they will undoubtedly be the closest candidates to the throne.

In other words, Pierre Bonaparte was still three positions away from the throne.

In addition, he is older than Jerome Bonaparte, which means that he has no chance of becoming emperor.
