Make France Great Again

Jerome Bonaparte, who heard that Ambassador Kautz and Richard Metternich had arrived, was taken aback for a moment, and then asked Basilio how the outside world reacted to his assassination.

Bacilio told Jerome Bonaparte that all the newspapers in Paris were reporting that he and Augusta were assassinated at the Paris Opera House last night; all the patriotic citizens in Paris were annoyed Rebuke those assassins who tried to assassinate him.

"No wonder they came so fast!

Jerome Bonaparte muttered to himself, then turned his head and asked: "Ambassador Kautz and Richard Metternich are still in the Duinlery Palace now?" "

"The two ambassadors are still at the Palais du Inlery!" Basilio replied to Jerome Bonaparte, "I have arranged for the two ambassadors to be in different rooms, which one do you want to meet with first?" !"

Jerome Bonaparte touched his chin, thought for a moment and said, "Go and talk to Ambassador Kauts first!"

"Yes!" Bashilio led the way, and Jerome Bonaparte slowly followed Bashilio.

When Basilio reached the stairs, he turned around and asked Jerome Bonaparte, "Your Majesty, would you like to have something to eat before going over?"

"Forget it!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and responded to Bashilio: "You can eat at any time, so let's meet with Ambassador Kautz first!"

"Yes!" Basilio turned around again and continued walking upstairs with Jerome Bonaparte.

Soon, the two arrived at the room where Ambassador Kautz was.

"Your Majesty, Ambassador Kauts is inside!" Basilio said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"En!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded, and then asked Basilio to go to the room where Richard Metternich was, and told him that he would be there in a while.

After Basilio took the order to leave, Jerome Bonaparte opened the door and entered the room.

Ambassador Kauts, who was sitting on the chair in the room at the moment, saw Jerome Bonaparte at the door, and hurriedly got up to greet Jerome Bonaparte.

After Jerome Bonaparte and Ambassador Kauts met, Ambassador Kautz first bowed to Jerome Bonaparte to show respect, and then Jerome Bonaparte said to Ambassador Kautz: " Keeping you waiting! Ambassador Kautz!"

"Your Majesty, it's nothing!" Ambassador Kauts responded to Jerome Bonaparte with a smile on his face: "I can see that you are safe and sound, no matter how long I wait, it will be worth it!"

For Ambassador Kauts, Jérôme Bonaparte and his Second Empire are one of the most important allies of the Kingdom of Britain.

Even if this ally occasionally "stabs" the British Kingdom on some issues. (For example: on the issue of the Kingdom of Morocco, the French Empire forced Britain to give up its asylum to the Kingdom of Morocco because of the fact that Britain wanted something from them.)

But on a large scale, the French Empire remained the most reliable ally of the British Kingdom.

Especially now that the whole of Europe is on the verge of turmoil (the two governments of Russia are still fighting each other, the Kingdom of Prussia came to the Inland region to establish a republic, the kingdom of the Two Sicilies was rioted in the countryside, and there was a small wave of anti-Austria in the Kingdom of Venice-Lombardy), it is even more necessary to The force of the French Empire maintained the balance.

Once the French Empire is overthrown like it was in 1848, the whole of Europe is likely to repeat the original turmoil.

At that time, the foreign policy of the Kingdom of Britain will fall into a short-term blindness again.

Therefore, Ambassador Kauts cares more about Jerome Bonaparte and the regime of the Second Empire than even the ministers of the Second Empire.

In fact, as early as last night, Ambassador Kautz received a report from his subordinates who rushed back from the Paris Opera House: Jerome Bonaparte was assassinated at the gate of the Paris Opera House and is currently in a state of uncertainty.

At that time, his first thought was to go to the scene to see if Jerome Bonaparte was really dead.

It's just that considering his status as an ambassador, it is easy to cause misunderstandings. If things go wrong, people will think it was an assassination by their British organization. Ambassador Kautz came here to see if the assassination target was successful, so he was not in a hurry rush over.

At that time, he was still a little nervous, so he sent a telegram to London overnight. The content of the telegram was: The emperor of the French Empire was assassinated in the square outside the Paris Opera House. possible.

Please Britain must be prepared for all possible emergencies.

The British side also returned a telegram to Ambassador Kautz more than an hour later, ordering him to pay close attention to the movements of the Paris side, and let him report to Britain immediately as soon as there is any action from the Paris side.

Therefore, Ambassador Kautz paid close attention to the movements of the Paris Opera House.

Finally, after all the performances at the Paris Opera House, the news that Jérôme Bonaparte appeared in the square outside the Opera House, Ambassador Kautz finally calmed down.

He also sent a telegram to London: Emperor Jerome Bonaparte has confirmed that he is safe, and the assassin's news needs further verification.

The London side also called Ambassador Kautz back two hours after he sent the telegram: Pay close attention to the assassin's information!

(Pessini did not disclose much useful information, although he brought the group of imperial officials to the Ministry of the Interior.)

Therefore, Ambassador Kautz took advantage of this opportunity to visit Jerome Bonaparte, hoping to get some information about the assassins.

If the assassin had anything to do with Britain, then Britain would be in an embarrassing situation.

"Those assassins are like a mouse hiding in a dark corner! Although they can cause some trouble to people, they can never win!" Jerome Bonaparte responded confidently to Ambassador Kauts road.

"Your Majesty! Now that those mice have been caught, when are you going to judge them!" Ambassador Kauts continued to ask Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Don't worry about this!" Jerome Bonaparte slowed down and said, "Those mice haven't all confessed who their instructors are! How could I pass judgment on them so quickly!

"

"Your Majesty, there are other forces behind them!" Ambassador Kautz pretended to be very surprised and said to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Ambassador Kauts, I don't think anyone knows better than you in Britain!" Jerome Bonaparte pointed out.

"Your Majesty, there is no connection between us and the assassin!" Ambassador Kautz blurted out, "I only found out about your assassination in the middle of the night last night!"

"Ambassador Kautz, I don't mean that you Britain is also involved!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Ambassador Kautz unhurriedly, "Your Britain has taken in exiles and republicans from many countries. , I don’t think anyone knows better than you how powerful these people are!”

"Your Majesty, we Britons are a free country, and we welcome anyone to the Kingdom of Britain!

It doesn't matter whether they are monarchists or republicans! As long as they can obey the laws of Britain! "Ambassador Kautz tried to correct Jérôme Bonaparte's 'mistake'.

Jerome Bonaparte sneered, of course he knew that Britain's hosting of those exile forces had nothing to do with the "freedom" that Ambassador Kautz said.

The reason why Britain did this was to leave a backup.

In case the forces taken in by them rise again, the Kingdom of Britain can quickly establish friendly diplomatic relations with them.

Strictly speaking, Jerome Bonaparte himself can also be regarded as supported by Britain.

Without the help of Britain in the early stage, it would be very difficult for Jerome Bonaparte to return to France so smoothly.

However, at that time, Britain's purpose was to calm the chaos in France as much as possible. They did not expect that Jérôme Bonaparte would be able to re-establish an empire that had ended for decades.

"Ambassador Kautz, let's not say such things that only children will believe!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Ambassador Kautz tactfully, "I just want to ask you a question!

If the person assassinated this time really has contact with the exiles in the Kingdom of Britain, then how is the Kingdom of Britain going to deal with this matter! "

After a moment of silence, Ambassador Kauts said to Jerome Bonaparte: "Your Majesty! If it is really the exiled forces in Britain who did such appalling things, we will do our best to expel him from the country!

Then let the French Empire dispose of it! "

"Do your best? So, there is still a possibility of failure!" Jerome Bonaparte asked rhetorically.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me!" Ambassador Kautz bowed to Jerome Bonaparte, "Britain is not France after all, and sometimes the cabinet will make some helpless choices due to the constraints of the House of Representatives!"

"Okay! I see!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to Ambassador Kautz, "If there is any latest news from the Ministry of the Interior, I will notify you as soon as possible!"

"I understand! Your Majesty!" Ambassador Kauts nodded and responded to Jerome Bonaparte.

Immediately afterwards ~www.NovelMTL.com~ Jerome Bonaparte casually asked Ambassador Kautz how the situation of the British Kingdom in India was!

Ambassador Kautz told Jerome Bonaparte that the British army under the leadership of the British "Vice Prince" Duke of Cambridge wiped out all the forces near the Delhi area, and the Mughal Emperor and his son were also captured by Britain , and escorted out of India.

The entire Indian rebel army (insurgent army) has fallen into a leaderless situation, and it is only a matter of time before they are wiped out.

"So, you will launch a new round of expedition soon!" Jerome Bonaparte then asked Ambassador Kauts.

[ps: Britain in this period has been a few months behind the second Opium War in history. 】

"Yes! Your Majesty." Ambassador Kauts responded, and then urged Jerome Bonaparte to intervene in the East.

"No need! The cabinet has no plan to attack!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and said to Ambassador Kautz.
