Make France Great Again

Due to Jerome Bonaparte's behavior of walking all the way, it took nearly half an hour to complete the journey that originally only took ten minutes.

At the gate of the Bourbon Palace, four generals in military uniforms were quietly watching Jerome Bonaparte.

They are General Reignio de Saint-Jean-Dangerier, General Haupel, General Changarnier, and General Victor Castellane (Count).

Among them, General Castellane looked at Jérôme Bonaparte in the distance with complicated emotions in his eyes. He approached Changarnier and asked in a low voice: "General Changarnier, is our president still alive?" I couldn’t wait to keep in touch with the army before I took office, just like the emperor back then!"

After listening to General Castellane's instigation, General Changarnier's expression was still calm. He spoke slowly and said in a calm tone: "Mr. President likes the army, isn't that what you guys want to see?"

"Who knows?" Castellane shrugged his shoulders and responded with a strange tone, his eyes turned to Jerome Bonaparte again.

Changarnier frowned slightly, and then returned to his indifferent expression.

Jerome Bonaparte, who came in front of the four generals, shook hands with General Renault, Haupel, and Castellane in turn with a smile on his face. When he extended his hand to General Changarnier , the little old man Changarnier did not stretch out his hand, but said lightly: "Mr. President, your inaugural speech is about to start, we should go in!"

After that, Changarnier turned and entered the venue, leaving only the embarrassed Jérôme Bonaparte behind.

"Hahaha...Our General Changarnier is really a resolute general!" Jerome Bonaparte, who was annoyed by Changarnier's arrogance in his heart, joked.

"That's right! General Changarnier has always been a vigorous and decisive person!" In order to ease the embarrassment, General Opal also echoed.

Castellane glanced at General Opel, then at Jerome Bonaparte, and smiled again.

"Let's go! Don't make the colleagues of the Republic wait!" Jerome Bonaparte said to the three generals present.

The three generals were at the head of the procession, and Jerome Bonaparte was at the end of the procession.

The three people who entered the hall of the Bourbon Palace walked through the long and narrow corridor covered with red carpets, and came to the door of the main hall. On the other side of the door was the National Assembly that could accommodate nearly a thousand people.

Changarnier, who was standing at the door, joined the team again, and he pushed open the door of the National Assembly.

Jerome Bonaparte and others entered the National Assembly one by one, and they stayed in the corridor on the right side of the National Assembly, waiting for the signal to enter.

Maraste, who was standing on the rostrum, saw Changarnier entering the arena, and concluded that Jérôme Bonaparte had entered the arena. He knocked on the wooden hammer on the rostrum and said loudly: "Silence! !"

The slightly noisy National Assembly fell silent in an instant. The members sitting in the box seats and hall seats were solemnly waiting for Malast's speech. They knew that their Mr. President had arrived.

Marast stood up with a solemn expression and read: "In the name of the French people,

Whereas Joseph Jerome Bonaparte, a citizen born in Paris, meets the conditions for election under Article 44 of the Constitution;

Whereas he received an absolute majority of votes in the open presidential elections held throughout the territory of the Republic;

Pursuant to Articles 47 and 48 of the Constitution, the National Assembly hereby proclaims this citizen as the President of the Republic for a term beginning on this day and ending on the second Sunday in May 1852. "

After Marast's solemn announcement was over, the members of the council burst into applause. They were either sincerely or perfunctorily applauding for the Republic.

Malaster then added: "According to the statute,

The Speaker wants to invite the citizens of the President of the French Republic to stand on the rostrum in order to be sworn in! "

The time has quietly come to 4 o'clock, the night is gradually falling, the spacious National Assembly hall is half dark, the glass chandelier with candles is lowered from the zenith, the bailiff sent the candles to the rostrum, Speaker Maras Te gestured toward the hallway to the left.

The four generals of Changarnier walked under the rostrum. They represented the army protecting the president. Jerome Bonaparte stood on the rostrum.

"Dear compatriots, as God bears witness, in front of the National Assembly representing the French people..." Jerome Bonaparte looked straight ahead, trying to swear in a standard Parisian accent.

Although Jerome Bonaparte has tried very hard to change, he still has some Tuscan flavors.

This may not be easy for ordinary people to hear, but for Thiers and others, the Parisian accent with Tuscan flavor is simply a perfect joke.

Thiers leaned in front of Barrow and whispered, "His accent is really terrible!"

Barrow and the members of the Party of Order beside him couldn't help laughing.

Jerome Bonaparte on the stage put his right hand on his chest, trying to make others believe in him: "I swear to be loyal to the Republic and to the Constitution!"

There was sparse applause from the audience, and after a few seconds, more and more people began to applaud.

Jerome Bonaparte temporarily bid farewell to the rostrum after bowing to all the members present.

Immediately afterwards, Cavaignac came to power. At this time, Cavaignac no longer had the charm of being a dictator before.

With the speech in hand, he stammered his blessings to Jerome Bonaparte, and at the same time expressed his joy for the future of the French Republic.

Jerome Bonaparte responded to the rostrum again. He stretched out his hand and said to Cavaignac: "At this time of transition between the old and the new, should we shake hands, Monsieur in Power!"

Cavaignac showed a reluctant smile and shook hands with Jerome Bonaparte, then turned and came down from the rostrum.

Perhaps because Cavaignac couldn't bear the blow of losing his power, he fell directly from the second step after walking down from the rostrum. This was the first time someone fell from the third step.

"It seems that our Mr. Dictator can't bear the blow!" Thiers said to Barrow in a joking tone.

Odilon Barro remained silent, his eyes fixed on the rostrum as if he was waiting for something.

"Here, I announce that I will establish a cabinet that will serve the National Assembly and all French citizens! I will nominate Mr. Odilon Barrot as Prime Minister of the Cabinet!" Jerome Bonaparte said on the day he took office, A bomb was dropped on the National Assembly.

The Republicans and the Mountain Party looked at Odilon Barro on the side of the Party of Order at the same time, and the colleagues of the Party of Order also congratulated Odilon Barro.

Odilon Barro, who heard the news, showed a joyful expression. After fighting for more than ten years in the July Dynasty, he finally served as the Prime Minister of the Second Republic.
