Make France Great Again

The Tuileries Palace banquet started at around eight o'clock in the evening. All rooms were lit with candles under the order of Jérôme Bonaparte. From the outside in, the entire Tuileries Palace seemed to be enveloped in light. , in this splendid hall, generals, parliamentarians, businessmen, and ministers from various countries gathered together to participate in the dance.

For foreign ministers, this was the first time they attended a ball in the Tuileries Palace since the Revolution of 1848. The keen minister seemed to smell something unusual.

After all, the combination of the two words Tuileries Palace and Bonaparte is to provoke the nerves of the entire European country.

As the protagonist of the ball, Jérôme Bonaparte wore a tight suit and still wore a Legion of Glory medal on his chest. He shuttled among the crowd and accepted the blessings of the guests in the hall.

Sometimes he would stop and talk to the ball guests.

The whole ball turned into a social place for Jérôme Bonaparte.

Of course, not everyone revolved around Jérôme Bonaparte. The Russian Imperial Minister and the British Minister were rarely together.

"Mr. Minister, would you like to chat?" the Russian Minister said to the British Minister in a slightly rude French accent.

The British minister glanced at the Russian minister who appeared in front of him. He hesitated for a moment and then nodded.

The Russian Minister and the British Minister came to a remote place to talk.

"Mr. Minister, look at his clown-like performance! Those who don't know think he has become the emperor!" The Russian Minister complained to the British Minister.

"That's impossible to say!" The British minister responded with a smile, seemingly casually: "Who knows whether he will be crowned like a great man!"

A flash of astonishment flashed across the Russian minister's expression, and when he reacted, he immediately covered it up with a smile: "It shouldn't be possible! His uncle relied on military exploits one after another to make up for his bloodline disadvantage. His bloodline was much better than his. His uncle is indeed a bit nobler, but he has achieved the same achievements as his uncle. Even if it is half!"

"Then I don't know!" The British Minister shrugged, with a meaningful smile on his lips: "Maybe, some unlucky country will become his stepping stone!"

The Russian Minister's face was a little gloomy, and the British Minister seemed to be alluding to the great Russian Empire.

impossible! There is absolutely no way the great Russian Empire could fail!

The Russian minister muttered a few words silently in his heart. He quickly changed the subject and said: "I heard that the alliance between your country and France seems to have become a stranger!"

What the Russian minister was talking about was exactly what happened in late May, when Admiral Parker, the commander of the British Mediterranean Fleet, was invited by Don Pacific on his way back to sail into Athens on his way back from the Dardanelles Strait. In order to support Don Pacifico's dubious rights and interests claim, the Kingdom of Greece was unwilling to accept Don Pacifico's request and could only turn to the protectorate France for help. De Ruys, then the French Minister of Foreign Affairs, personally died. mediate.

Helplessly, Palmerston categorically rejected France's mediation, and his representative in Athens responded to the mediation with a rude attitude. In order to reshape France's reputation and restore the "loyalty" of the three younger brothers of Greece, he also attracted Louis. Learning from the resentment of the people due to excessive weakness during the Philip era, Jérôme Bonaparte decided to evacuate the French diplomatic ambassador to Britain and at the same time condemned Britain without a signature.

By the time Britain settled this dirty deal (July 26, 1850), the "quasi-union" between France and Britain no longer existed.

Britain had to contend with the foreign policy of the Russian Empire alone.

Fortunately, the Russian Empire did not show any signs of overstepping during this period. They seemed to be distracted by the struggle between Prussia and Austria.

"The Kingdom of Britain and the French Republic are just neighbors. There is no alliance between the two countries!" The British Minister flatly denied the Russian Minister's "alliance" statement.

Although Palmerston in London repeatedly requested to repair the relationship between Britain and France, the Minister in Britain did not believe that the British cabinet should "bow down" to France, not to mention that there were many candidates in the cabinet and in the opposition who opposed the French Republic. .

"I just said how could a kingdom like Britain unite with a heretic like the Republic!" The Russian minister showed an expression of "sudden realization", but an uncontrollable smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

The reason why he took over from the previous ambassador was to break up the alliance between Britain and France. What he didn't expect was that the alliance between the two countries had dissolved on its own without his intervention.

However, he still needs to repair the relationship with France. The previous Russian ambassador left a big hole for him.

He would not have been willing to go to Paris if it had not been forcibly assigned by Foreign Minister Nesserodi.

Of course, cooperation is cooperation, but he still looks down on the nouveau riche family.

"Since Mr. Ambassador thinks that the French Republic is a heresy, why do you still attend the banquet of President Jérôme Bonaparte." The British Minister asked the Russian Minister with a smile.

"Our Tsar Majesty believes that France, as one of the great powers in Europe, should be accepted by all of Europe. It should become an indispensable part of European countries!" The Russian Imperial Minister said unhurriedly while observing The expression of the British Minister.

Valley/span They want to win over France! These damn Slavic barbarians!

There was a hint of horror in the eyes of the British Minister. In his impression, Tsar Nicholas I should have hated the heresy of the Republic.

Then, the British minister looked a little flustered. If France and Russia, the two European army powers, really want to unite, then there will be no place for the British Kingdom in the entire Europe.

The British Minister believed that no matter how arrogant the British were, they would not think that Britain alone could shake the system of the entire European continent. The last person to shake the order was Napoleon, and his ending was naturally self-evident.

The British Minister's panicked expression made the Russian Minister a little proud.

The dignified British Minister was actually frightened by such news. The Russian Minister continued: "His Majesty the Tsar does not like Jerome Bonaparte, but that does not mean that we are against the French Republic. The French Republic should be treated with due respect. "

"Of course!" The British minister smiled reluctantly.

"Okay, it's time for me to leave!" The Russian Minister, who had achieved his goal, left the British Minister with satisfaction.

The British Minister was left standing alone. It was not until a lady stretched out her hand to invite him to dance that the British Minister reacted.

…

Just when the Russian Minister and the British Minister parted unhappily, the Württemberg Minister came to Jerome Bonaparte and respectfully said to Jerome Bonaparte: "Mr. President, congratulations on your ability to serve as a gentleman." Take back your Tuileries Palace from the hands of General Garnier!"

Regarding the compliment from Minister Württemberg, Jérôme Bonaparte smiled and corrected Minister Württemberg's "mistake" and said: "This is not my private product, but a treasure of the whole of France."

"Mr. President, can you take a few minutes of your time! I have something to tell you." Upon seeing this, Minister Württemberg said to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Of course!" From the expression of Minister Württemberg, Jérôme Bonaparte could tell that there was probably another disturbance in the German region, and he subconsciously looked at De Ruys.

At this time, De Ruys was dancing with his wife. Jerome Bonaparte, who could not be disturbed, entered a room in the Tuileries Palace with the Württemberg Minister.

After entering the room and closing the door, the Württemberg minister said: "Your Highness... No, I should call you Your Majesty!"

"You don't have to compliment me so quickly!" Jérôme Bonaparte waved his hand and emphasized to the Württemberg minister: "I am still the president of the French Republic!"

Minister Württemberg certainly understands what Jerome Bonaparte means, and Jerome Bonaparte will be determined to re-establish the empire in the near future.

"Your Majesty!" Minister Württemberg still called Jerome Bonaparte this way.

"Tell me! What happened?" Jerome Bonaparte asked the Württemberg minister.

"That's it! The Austrian Empire will sign a military alliance with our Majesty in the near future!" Minister Württemberg whispered to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Huh?" Jérôme Bonaparte looked at Minister Württemberg with feigned surprise, "Could there be some big move by the Austrian Empire!"

"It's not the problem of the Hesse Kingdom last year!" Minister Württemberg sighed and responded: "Now the Austrian Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia are eager to work hard to kill each other. Now the friction between the two sides is getting bigger and bigger! "

This is the tragedy of small countries. Big countries only need to flex their muscles, while small countries will face turmoil.

Even though the Kingdom of Württemberg is the second largest country in South Germany, it can only go with the flow in front of Prussia and Austria.

"Do you want France to mediate?" Jérôme Bonaparte, who wanted both Prussia and Austria to die immediately, said frankly to Württemberg: "With all due respect, France is not capable of mediating between Prussia and Austria. Austria’s war! The last mediation almost put France into a diplomatic dilemma. (Mediation in the Greek incident, Britain and France briefly severed diplomatic relations)”

"No, no, no!" Minister Württemberg shook his head and said: "Your Majesty does not expect an armistice between Prussia and Austria. We just want to ask France's attitude towards this war? In other words, which side does France stand on?"

"We will side with whoever is beneficial to us!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to the Württemberg Minister, and then added: "Prussia has rejected our olive branch!"

"I see!"
