Napoleon II Reborn

Chapter 224: Dethrone (below)

(The first chapter is here, there will be a second chapter later)

December 24, 1810. Xiao Jie held a grand Christmas dinner at the Royal Palace in Madrid. Important officials of the Iberian government, military leaders, people in business circles and various other celebrities have all received the invitation. The large-scale construction of Iberia has made Iberia's economy grow rapidly. The government invested a lot of money in infrastructure construction, which not only promoted economic development, but also provided a large number of labor jobs to the society. To a certain extent played a role in stabilizing society. At the same time, in the construction of this year, very huge results have also been achieved. For example, the Madrid-Valencia railway was completed and opened to traffic in February, the Madrid-Zaragoza-Barcelona railway was also completed and opened to traffic in September, and the Madrid-Lisbon railway was also completed and opened to traffic at the end of November. In the midst of intensive construction, it is expected to be completed in the first half of 1811. Today, the railway has become the main artery of Iberia. It not only plays a huge role in the economy, but also plays an inestimable role in the military.

After the speech at the dinner, Xiao Jie announced in front of everyone that he would hold a wedding with Angel at the end of January. Announcing the news at this time was entirely on Xiao Jie's whim, and he hadn't discussed it with other people before, so after he announced the news, everyone was stunned, but then there was a huge cheer. Among them, those Jewish entrepreneurs who came to Iberia to invest and set up factories had the strongest reaction. It is true that they are very rich, but they have no political strength at all, and they cannot even guarantee the safety of their lives and property. Now Xiao Jie, the Crown Prince of Iberia and the Crown Prince of the French Empire, announced in public that he would marry a Jewish woman. This shocked them quite a lot, and it also meant that their political status would be improved from now on. How could this make them unhappy and cheer for Xiao Jie insincerely? Similarly, because of Xiao Jie's actions, these Jews supported Xiao Jie even more. Their financial resources will be the guarantee for Xiao Jie to gain greater power in the future.

Xiao Jie announced that he would have tuberculosis, and the military also unconditionally supported him. From their point of view, who Xiao Jie wants to marry is entirely his own decision, so they will not be as worried as some government officials. It caused dissatisfaction in Paris. After all, some of them have guns now, and their wings are already very hard.

After the dinner, Forbeck found Xiao Jie: "His Royal Highness, may your decision today be a little too hasty, you should understand that the relationship between you and His Majesty Napoleon is in a very delicate situation, so you Do it, don't you worry about letting him catch you and depose you?"

"Prime Minister, thank you for caring about me so much, but I have considered this matter carefully. It doesn't matter if I become the crown prince or not. The important thing is that I have the strength in my hands that they dare not underestimate me." Xiao Jie took Said with a smile.

"However, if we confront France now, it will be very unfavorable to us. Although Iberia has experienced rapid development for more than a year, its foundation is too thin after all. We still need to import a lot of equipment and raw materials from France. If the relationship with France is deadlocked now, it may affect our construction. No, you are not such a reckless person, I think there must be other reasons that forced you to make such a decision." Forbeck was a little suspicious Said.

"Haha, they thought you old fox really well. That's right, there are other reasons. Angel is pregnant, do you think it's okay if I don't marry him? This reason is sufficient." Xiao Jie said with a smile.

"What? Miss Angel is pregnant. This reason is indeed very good." Forbeck was very surprised. He didn't even hear Xiao Jie calling him an old fox. Angel is pregnant, so her child is likely to be the future Iberia. Lord, that's a good enough reason. But as far as he was concerned, if he could not quarrel with Napoleon, he would rather let Xiao Jie choose not to marry Angel. It is recommended to speak out. Besides, Xiao Jie announced it in front of so many people, it is impossible to take back his words now.

The news that Xiao Jie was going to marry a Jewish woman quickly spread to France and the whole of Europe. The kings or emperors of other countries all focused their attention on Paris, wanting to see how Napoleon would handle this matter. Is it a compromise? Or take advantage of this opportunity to put his own son "King of Rome" on the throne of crown prince.

"Andresi, why are you doing this? I know you did it on purpose, why did you force me?" Napoleon said to himself after hearing Diloc's report. At the beginning, he was a little excited, thinking that the opportunity had come, but after he calmed down and thought about it, he felt that this matter was too strange. He still knows his nephew very well. Not only is he smart and capable, but he also has great ambitions like him, which is what he values. But because of this, he couldn't understand why Xiao Jie would do this on purpose. Has he already decided to confront France in an all-out way?

"Dilloc, I want to know why Andresi made such a decision. Go check it out right away and give me the result as soon as possible." Napoleon didn't dare to do anything before he found out Xiao Jie's true intentions. He decided that he was afraid of falling into Xiao Jie's trap.

"Okay, Your Majesty. I'll ask someone to do it right away." After Dilloch saluted Napoleon, he quickly left Napoleon's office. He knew that Napoleon was very important to this matter. If he couldn't If the investigation results are handed over to Napoleon in time, I'm afraid he will be in bad luck.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, Andresi wants to marry a Jewish woman. This simply does not take you or the Bonaparte family into consideration. I strongly demand that Andresi's titles be abolished." and drive him out of the Bonaparte family." Less than half an hour after Diloc left, Murat rushed into Napoleon's office after receiving the news.

For Murat's actions, Napoleon was very disgusted, and he couldn't help but said in a deep voice: "Prince Murat, I already know about this matter. I have a sense of how to deal with it. If I need to ask your opinion, I will send someone to find you." Yours, I'm very busy now, if you have nothing else to do, please leave temporarily."

Hearing Napoleon's answer, Murat was stunned for a moment and felt very aggrieved. Although a large part of the reason why he did this was to avenge Xiao Jie, it could be regarded as helping the "King of Rome" He really couldn't figure out why Napoleon had such an expression, and wanted to say something, but seeing Napoleon's terrible expression, he had to swallow his words and left in embarrassment.

In the following time, Queen Louise, King Louis of the Netherlands, Jerome of Westphalia, and Xiao Jie's aunts, as well as those ministers who opposed Xiao Jie, all united to carry out a series of attacks against Xiao Jie. The reason for the impeachment was that Xiao Jie took a Jewish woman as his wife, defiled the blood of the royal family, and asked Napoleon to depose Xiao Jie's crown prince and install a new crown prince, needless to say, he would be the "King of Rome". It made Napoleon really annoying.

Three days later, Dilloch finally brought Napoleon the news he wanted.

"Angel is pregnant? So Andresi had to marry her?" This reason made Napoleon a little hard to accept. In his view, women are just a byproduct of power. How can one give up power for women? If it were him, he would never do this. It seems that Andresi is still too young and too impulsive. How can a person who wants to achieve great things care about such personal relationships? Napoleon couldn't help feeling a little emotional. It seems that this point must be added to the education of François (King of Rome) in the future: you cannot give up the power at your fingertips for the sake of women.

That night, Napoleon summoned Xiao Jie's father, Prince of France and King Joseph of Spain, and denounced Xiao Jie's irresponsible behavior. Joseph educated Xiao Jie well, claiming that if Xiao Jie repented and left Angel, then he would forgive Xiao Jie, and if Xiao Jie was still obsessed, then he had no choice but to take drastic measures.

In fact ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ In Napoleon's heart, he didn't want to give Xiao Jie another chance, he did it just as a gesture, he had predicted that Xiao Jie would not leave Angel, so he In doing so, he not only blocked other people's gossip, but also showed his kindness to the public, so why not do it?

After returning home, Joseph wrote a long letter to Xiao Jie overnight, but the content in it was different from what Napoleon had asked for. Joseph did not reprimand Xiao Jie, but he had to think carefully, but in the end regardless of Xiao Jie No matter what the choice is, he will firmly support him.

This letter from Joseph moved Xiao Jie very much. At the same time, in his reply to Joseph, he also explained the reasons why he wanted to do this.

In the end, Xiao Jie rejected Napoleon's offer and announced that he would hold a wedding with Angel on January 29 at the Madrid Cathedral.

This time, Napoleon was furious. He ordered all members of the royal family, important government officials, and military leaders to hold a meeting to discuss how to deal with Xiao Jie. And at the beginning of the meeting, he announced his decision: From now on, the title of Crown Prince Andresi will be abolished.
