Fox of France

　　 When I heard that this was the case, Joseph felt that he couldn't participate anymore. Because although he does not participate in club activities, he is not completely ignorant of the situation in the club today. Since the King’s escape, the club has split. In the past, the members of the Friends of Constitutionalism Club basically all supported the constitutional monarchy, but after this happened, some people have turned to support the republic. After the Mars Square incident, this division may become more obvious.

　　 As for the election of the new club chairman, the current chairman is Lafayette, although he has been participating in club activities because of his busy schedule during this time. But he must still be one of the candidates, and the other candidate at this club meeting, Joseph knew without even thinking that it must be Robespierre. And he is sure that Robespierre must have won in this election. Because it is obvious that Lafayette is not sure about this election, otherwise he won't have to pull himself over.

　　 "You really can't participate in this kind of thing. If you don't do it well, you really have to lose your head!" Joseph thought this way, and said quickly: "General, I didn't mean to shirk, but I..."

　　 Joseph couldn't think of any particularly reliable reasons for a while, sweat came out of his anxious face.

　　 "What?" Lafayette frowned and forgot Joseph's glance. "Which girl do you have a date? But this matter is more important. I hope you can find a way to participate as much as possible."

　　 Joseph finally figured out a way at this time, and that was to pretend to be sick. He decided to agree first, and then pretend to be ill as soon as he gets home tonight. He must be very ill and too heavy to move-Lafayette can't get a stretcher to carry him to the meeting, right?

　　 After thinking about the countermeasures in this way, Joseph said in a convenient way: "Well then, Your Excellency, I will spare time."

　　 "Well, I am waiting for you." Lafayette smiled at Joseph. As for whom Joseph would vote for and who would choose between himself and Robespierre, Lafayette felt that there was no need to ask.

　　 Waiting for Lafayette to leave, Joseph quickly found Napoleon, told him about the incident on the way home, and agreed with him.

　　 However, when the two of them walked to the door of the house, Joseph was stunned because he saw two people waiting at his door.

　　 Two people waiting for Joseph at the door, one is Amand and the other is Robespierre!

　　 If possible, Joseph really wanted to turn around and run immediately, but Amon and Robespierre had already seen them, and Amon waved to him, and Robespierre was already nodding to them.

　　 "Can't run away!" Joseph looked at Amon's sincere smile, only feeling cold all over, as if he was stripped naked and then thrown on the snowy field of Siberia. In a trance, he seemed to see the majestic figure of the guillotine.

　　 Joseph could guess with his heel why Amand and Robespierre came to him, it must be for voting.

"I'm so stupid, really!" thought Joseph, "I only knew that when I was going to vote, Lafayette would come to me; but I didn't expect that even Robespierre would come to me. If I were a little smarter , I should find a place to stay away from home tonight..."

　　 But it's too late to think about anything now, the guillotine, no, it's Robespierre who has come.

　　 "Mr. Bonaparte, I am sorry to disturb you at this time." Robespierre said with a smile.

"Joseph, why did you come back? Your brother refuses to open the door for us, for fear that we are the wolf grandmother!" Aman showed a simple smile like Little Red Riding Hood, without feeling that he really brought the big bad wolf to the house. Come home.

　　 "Lucien went to a classmate's house. There is only Louis at home. He is a bit rigid. I told him that I won't open the door unless I returned." Joseph replied with a smile on his face.

　　 called and opened the door. Joseph took Napoleon, the cheating Little Red Riding Hood, and the terrible wolf grandma into the house. Several people sat down, and Robespierre asked, "Mr. Bonaparte, this is your brother Napoleon? I heard he is very talented in the military."

　　 Napoleon was silent on the side, but Joseph could see that Napoleon was actually quite proud.

　　 "Napoleon did well during this time." Joseph said. Robespierre was talking about off-topic, and Joseph wished he could talk a little longer, so that he could spend more time thinking about how to deal with it.

　　Theoretically, the same methods used to deal with Lafayette can deal with Robespierre. But Joseph was a little afraid. He knew that by pretending to be sick and avoiding it, Lafayette suspected that he was pretending to be sick and would not cut off his head because of it. But cheating Robespierre is another matter. Once he becomes suspicious, the problem It's in trouble.

　　 "Maybe there is a way to get the best of both worlds?" Joseph and Robespierre thought perfunctorily.

　　 Robespierre finally talked about the topic: "Joseph, I don’t know what you think of the King’s being taken hostage and the escape and the Mars Square incident?"

　　 "What happened to the king's escape?" Joseph replied, "I think he almost succeeded, but we were caught back. It shows that God also supports the revolution."

　　 At this time, it is not a problem to mention God before Robespierre, because not long ago, Robespierre also regarded devotion to God as the most important virtue in his article.

　　 Robespierre laughed, but he was not distorted by Joseph's answer. He continued: "Ah, Mr. Bonaparte, what I said is, do you believe that the king was'hijacked'?"

　　 "I'm not a fool, I would believe that kind of nonsense." Joseph cocked his mouth. He felt that he had better not play stupid in front of Robespierre. If there must be a choice between offending Lafayette and Robespierre, Joseph will definitely choose to offend Lafayette. Because Lafayette doesn't seem to send him to the guillotine. It can be seen that Machiavelli's statement that being a terrifying monarch is better than being a beloved monarch is indeed very reasonable.

　　 "But our king is really a fool." Napoleon interrupted, "Look at him, he has to be ostentatious even to escape. Get such a carriage, for fear that people don't know that it is a king."

　　 Now that Joseph had already expressed his attitude towards the king’s escape, Napoleon felt that he didn’t need to hide it.

　　 "But Mr. Lafayette still insisted that the king was'hijacked', Bonaparte, what do you think of this matter?" Robespierre asked.

　　 Joseph thought for a while, he knew that many people now think that he has gained a lot of benefits from Lafayette, and he can almost be regarded as Lafayette's person. Now Robespierre raises this question, to a large extent, he is judging friend or foe. On this issue, if he continues to support Lafayette, then Robespierre will obviously regard him as Lafayette's best friend and his own political enemy.

　　 But he immediately opposed Lafayette, and it seemed too shameless. Joseph knew that if a person had a reputation similar to Wenhou, he would have a lot of trouble in the future. So he hesitated deliberately, and then said: "Mr. Lafayette naturally knows that the king was not kidnapped, but that the king has always opposed the revolution. But I think that Mr. Lafayette's statement may be to avoid war."

Seeing Robespierre's contemplative look, Joseph continued: "Mr. Lafayette may be worried that if we are to pursue the king's defection, it will lead to domestic rebellion and interference from other countries. Robes Mr. Pier, you also know that the condition of the French army is very bad, because the upper ranks of the army are very unreliable. But we cannot replace them all at once. Therefore, Mr. Lafayette may be worried that in the event of a war , France will be in a very unfavorable state."

　　 "Then Mr. Bonaparte, what do you think of this matter? Do you agree with Lafayette?" Robespierre asked again.

Joseph shook his head and said, "I can understand Mr. Lafayette’s concerns~www.novelmtl.com~ but I do not agree with his approach. I think Mr. Lafayette has committed two crimes on this issue. error."

　　 "Tell me more specifically!"

"First, Mr. Lafayette's vision is too limited to the army." Joseph said. "He doesn't understand that the true greatest force in France is not the French army, but the French people. Let someone who has lost their people. People who trust, people who have betrayed the people continue to sit in the king's position, which will seriously damage the morale of the people.

　　Secondly, he underestimated our enemy. He felt that if we backed down, we could get the same kindness of our enemies. But our enemies will not relax their attacks on us. On the contrary, our weakness will encourage them to take risks.

　　 Besides, the king has already expressed his opposition to revolution. Since then, the royal family has no retreat. They understand that the people will never believe them again. In the future, whether it is us or any of their actions, it will only be seen as a stopgap measure by the other party. They will never believe that we are still willing to retain his rights. They will only regard this as our fear of counter-revolutionary forces at home and abroad.

　　 Lafayette may hope to buy time by retaining the king to complete the reconstruction of the army. But the king would not fail to understand this. In the eyes of the king, if Lafayette was given such time, it would be equivalent to a death sentence for the kingship. Therefore, they will not give Lafayette this time. "

"What you said is." Amon said, "Joseph, the club will have an important meeting the day after tomorrow, during which the president of the club will be re-elected. This will determine the direction of the club. I think our club can no longer follow Rafah. Mr. Yate’s wrong path goes on."
