Make France Great Again
Chapter 62 Reformation of the Papal States
Time flies by, and in the blink of an eye, June 25 has already arrived.
With the enthusiasm of the people in Rome to participate in politics and the "good" news coming from Austria, Pope Pius IX had to walk out of the Apostolic Palace again, and went to St. Petersburg Church Square to announce the progress of the reform under the protection of Swiss guards.
As the chief adviser of Pope Pius IX, Pererino Rossi was appointed by Pius IX as Minister of the Interior and pushed to the front stage. Pererino Rossi also delivered an inaugural speech in St. Peter's Square. Perelli Nuo Rossi announced his first reform plan.
In the plan, Pererino Rossi claimed that given that Rome is currently in an economic downturn, rashly carrying out democratic reforms will only bring the economy of the Papal State to the brink of collapse. The first thing the government should do now is to revitalize the economy, so he will The famous nobles in the city of Rome will be invited to discuss the strategy of saving the city.
The question of the policy of the political year and whether there should be a National Assembly like that of France requires further discussion.
As soon as this remark came out, there was a small commotion in St. Peter's Square, and some republicans and careerists standing outside St. Petersburg Square were obviously not very satisfied.
However, the commotion did not get the response of other people to form a trend like the previous demonstrations. Those who tried to agitate the residents on the outskirts of St. Petersburg Square were quickly caught by the Swiss guards.
The reason is that many aristocratic gentlemen with influence in the city of Rome chose to wait and see with satisfaction after hearing that Pererino Rossi wanted to invite them to participate in politics.
Without their secret help, republicans and potential careerists would not be able to accomplish anything.
After the first phase of the reform plan was elaborated, Pope Pius IX appeared again amid the cheers of all eyes. He publicly pardoned those who wanted to agitate the people in St. Petersburg Square in a compassionate tone. This move made enough money again. the hearts of the inhabitants of Rome.
Fueled by the "water army" hidden among the residents, many citizens shouted "Long live the Pope" either sincerely or out of the crowd.
Pope Pius IX and Minister Pererino Rossi returned to the Apostolic Palace from St. Peter's Square amidst the previous cheers.
Early the next morning, mainstream newspapers in Rome published speeches about Pererino Rossi, and some newspapers even pulled out all the information about Pererino Rossi, and claimed that West comes from France, and he will definitely transform the Papal State into a country like France.
Everyone in Rome is eagerly looking forward to Pererino Rossi's next move.
Except Jerome Bonaparte in the Hotel in Rome.
After 23 days of "retreat and practice", Jerome Bonaparte finally finished writing the main content of "Catholic Ethics and Economics".
Lucien Louis came to Jerome Bonaparte's hotel residence as usual to help Jerome Bonaparte review the manuscript, and brought Jerome Bonaparte a French newspaper by the way.
"Perfect!" Lucien Louis couldn't help but sighed again after seeing it verbatim.
Jerome Bonaparte, who was looking down at the newspaper, raised his head and smiled slightly after hearing Lucien Louis' praise.
It is impossible for this book, which embodies the "wisdom" of Christianity in the entire 19th century, to be flawed.
If I had to name one flaw, it would be the elaboration of socialism.
Since the author of the original version wrote the book in the 1920s, when the theory of socialism exploded, part of the article is a "refutation" of socialism.
Now it is the middle of the 19th century, socialism theory is in a wild period, and many theoretical knowledge has not yet come out.
In order to prevent unnecessary trouble,
Jerome Bonaparte has deleted everything.
The whole book has also been reduced from 260,000 words to about 180,000 words.
Jerome Bonaparte believed that even without this part, "The Ethics of Catholic Managers" could still be the pillar supporting Catholic economics.
Lucien Louis, who put down the manuscript, asked Jerome Bonaparte again what his views were on the political situation in Rome.
"Minister Pererino's movements are still a bit slow!" Jerome Bonaparte sighed slightly.
"Huh? Uncle, I think His Majesty's willingness to carry out reforms is already a good signal. Be patient and there will definitely be gains!" Lucien Louis responded optimistically to Jerome Bonaparte.
"Lucien!" Jerome Bonaparte got up and came to the window, and Lucien Louis also followed Jerome Bonaparte to the window.
Jerome Bonaparte pointed to the Roman citizens outside the window and said to Lucien Louis: "Lucien, the Pope can wait, and so can the nobles! Can they wait? The wave of revolution has swept across Europe, slowly The reform will only cause the impatient people to hate the regime even more, they can wait for a while, but they can't wait forever. Your Majesty's first step is already wrong!"
"If it were you, what should we do?" Lucien Louis asked Jerome Bonaparte.
"Either do nothing, or do it with a ruthless heart!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Lucien Louis: "If it were me, I would pretend to establish a Constituent Assembly, and then use the votes of the peasants to The priests are sent to the council to rule Rome."
"Then what if they want to riot again?" Lucien Louis asked again.
"I just want to wait for them to riot!" Jerome Bonaparte said with a grim expression: "If he doesn't riot, how can I declare in the name of the law that they don't obey the constitution! At that time, I only need to issue a decree to declare The rioters are not in conformity with the constitution, and then use the French knife to cooperate with the returning home team in the countryside to kill them!"
Jerome Bonaparte made a movement of raising a knife with his hand, and the meaning of it is naturally self-evident.
The current situation of the Papal States is no longer something they can handle themselves. It requires a big country to use bayonets to forcibly reverse the values of Rome.
"France...France will help the Pope?" Lucien Louis asked Jerome Bonaparte.
"Just look at this and you'll understand!" Jerome Bonaparte returned to the desk and handed a French newspaper to Lucien Louis.
The content of the newspaper was "Resolutions Concerning the Dissolution of the National Factory".
"Do you know what this means?" Jerome Bonaparte's calm tone made one feel a little scary.
Lucien Louis shook his head to express his incomprehension.
"This means that a massacre will be staged in Paris in the near future. Those city management masters tore off their disguise and started attacking the workers!"
