Make France Great Again

May 11, 1848.

A black carriage with gilt trim and windows covered by a curtain of dark blue crepe was dragged by two tall brown horses and drove away from downtown London to Windsor Castle in Berkshire, southeastern England.

As soon as the carriage left London, it galloped on the country official road paved with a mixture of gravel and cement. The slightly bumpy road was flanked by emerald green lawns. Groups of cattle and sheep strolled leisurely on the lawn. The little shepherd lay leisurely on the lawn looking up at the blue sky that had not been eroded by industrialization.

Farther away are rows of houses, some of which are filled with smoke from cooking, and through the sound of the wind, you can hear the bells of churches in the distance. Compared with London, which is full of industrialization, the countryside Time seems to be stuck in the Middle Ages.

The true portrayal of the dual social system of urban and rural areas is vividly displayed in the United Kingdom in the 19th century. Here, you can't feel the breath of industrialization, and you can't feel the sour thinking in the air. You can also see Less than pm2.5 white "dust".

The countryside full of environmentalism has also become the private land of many nobles.

The owner of the carriage is Lord Russell. At this time, he is gazing at the scenery outside the window through the dark blue curtain. The idyllic scenery of the countryside does not make Lord Russell feel comfortable in his heart. endless worries.

The vigorous "petition" movement of the Chartist movement made Lord Russell physically and mentally exhausted. During this period of time, he had to accept inquiries from the property owners of the House of Representatives, and at the same time try to eliminate the impact of the "petition" movement.

Russell knew that there were ministers and MPs in the Cabinet and House who secretly accused him of being weak to the mob, and claimed that Lord Russell should not have agreed to the bill (referring to the ten-hour work system).

Lord Russell can only choose to keep silent about such phenomena, because he understands that even if he loses his temper in the House of Lords, it will not solve the current problem.

Furthermore, a cobbled together cabinet and parliament really can't stand the big toss. If it fails, it may face the short-term collapse of the cabinet like last time, and the mob seizes the opportunity to force the government to sign conditions that the government is unwilling to sign.

Lessons from the downfall of the previous cabinet gave Lord Russell an "unforgettable" memory.

This time he was going to accept an inquiry from Windsor Castle, to be precise, an inquiry from Prince Albert.

Since the "petition" movement began, Victoria, who originally lived in Buckingham Palace, followed the lesson of the unlucky Louis XVI next door during the Great Revolution, and the family urgently moved out of Buckingham Palace to Windsor Castle.

After driving for about 4 hours, the carriage carrying the political head of the most powerful country in the world slowed down slowly.

"My lord, we have arrived!"

The reminder from the coachman opened the eyes of Lord Russell, who was about to drowsy, and saw a castle through the window curtain. The castle was surrounded by a layer of walls more than 6 to 7 meters high. Choke the London waterways. Located in the east and north of the castle is an open terrace terrain with a wide view, which can be described as a strategic location in the Middle Ages.

Now that Britain dominates the entire world, this strategic location has become a decoration.

Led by the royal guards, the carriage slowly entered the core area through the Norman Gate, and stopped in front of a castle.

Under John Brown's standby, Lord Russell entered a study in the castle.

"The Prince and His Majesty will be here soon, Your Excellency, please wait a moment!" John Brown saluted Lord Russell and left.

Only Lord Russell was left alone in the study, and Lord Russell knew that it must be a trick from Albert, that guy from Germany was never easy to save money.

Time passed minute by minute,

There was also a wave of turmoil in Lord Russell's peaceful heart.

The study room opened slowly, and Prince Albert and Queen Victoria in red military uniforms appeared.

"Your Majesty, Your Excellency the Prince!" Lord Russell got up and bowed his head to Albert with a flattering expression.

"Your Excellency the Prime Minister!" Prince Albert nodded slightly to the Lord.

Victoria and Albert sat on one side of the sofa, and Lord Russell sat across from Prince Albert.

"Your Excellency, we called you here today just to inquire about the recent situation in London!" Albert asked Lord Russell "casually".

"The mob in the London area has disappeared under the joint suppression of the police and vigilantes! London has not suffered much impact, and the city hall and the cabinet are all running well?" Lord Russell hurriedly reported to Albert.

"So! Can we return to London?" Prince Albert asked again.

"I'm afraid not now!" Lord Russell shook his head in response.

"Your Excellency, didn't you say that the mob has disappeared?" Prince Albert asked pretending not to know.

"The newspapers headed by the "Northern Star" are still attacking the government. The royal family's rash appearance in London may cause some unnecessary disputes!" Lord Russell said tactfully.

At this time, London residents did not know that the royal family ran away from Buckingham Palace overnight to Windsor Castle.

If you let them know, I'm afraid those mobs will point directly at the royal family.

"Then just ban them all!" Queen Victoria said bluntly.

"Your Majesty, this does not comply with the regulations of the United Kingdom!" Lord Russell patiently explained: "If you ban it rashly, it may cause the situation to escalate!"

"And..." Lord Russell glanced at Albert, and said hesitantly: "Many newspapers use the name of "Bonaparte" to attack the government...and the royal family and Bonaparte..."

"Mr. Russell, do you mean that the royal family condoned Bonaparte's attack on the government?" Albert said a little displeased, "I can assure you that no matter what happens, the royal family has no reason to go against the government's policy!"

"Could it be that Bonaparte made his own claim..." Lord Russell asked again.

"I don't know that!" Albert responded: "The royal family is not Mr. Bonaparte's nanny, and we have no obligation to look after him from time to time."

"Then...what about Mr. Bonaparte who is being held in the detention center?" Lord Russell asked again.

"Huh? Mr. Bonaparte was imprisoned?" Albert asked puzzledly, "Didn't he reveal his identity?"

Only the poor can be detained in the London detention house, and gentlemen cannot be detained.

Not to mention upper-class nobles like Bonaparte.

"No!" Lord Russell said helplessly.

"Slicker!" Prince Albert cursed in German. In his opinion, Jerome Bonaparte was using this method to keep himself out of public opinion.

"Then shall we let him go?" Lord Russell asked again.

"Then everything must be done in accordance with the laws of the United Kingdom!" Albert said imperceptibly, "I remember that the period of detention is one week! Let him stay there honestly!"

The conclusion of Jérôme Bonaparte's acquittal set the tone in a few words between Prime Minister Russell and Albert.
