As Napoleon III was buried at Les Invalides, the state funeral of the Second French Empire finally came to an end.
The emperors and kings of various countries returned to their own countries one after another. The only one who stayed in Paris was the Russian Czar who was on an inspection tour of France. After all, he had finally traveled far and came to France, so he had to inspect it.
Of course, the Emperor of the Ming Empire, who was traveling even further away, couldn't leave as soon as he arrived here... Well, the Empress of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Sissi, also stayed in Paris to accompany her friend Eugenie and help her through the difficulties.
If nothing goes wrong, Empress Sissi will start her journey as in history until she is assassinated, rarely returning to Vienna during this period.
As a queen, Sissi's behavior is indeed unique. Which queen would travel abroad for decades?
Perhaps it was precisely because of this desire for freedom that she was willing to indulge in the lover's game with Emperor Zhu Da.
However, she was obviously a bit amorous. When she moved into the Palace of Fontainebleau, I don’t know how Eugenie expressed her disapproval. However, Eugenie was still happy for the company of her best friend. When a woman is happy, she will not
It's a man's business.
However, men still have to be busy with business. After the state funeral, Emperor Zhu Da met successively with Prince Joseph Jérôme, member of the Senate and Minister of Colonial Affairs, the Duke of Morny, Speaker of the Legislative Council and Minister of the Interior, and Alexander, the Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Empire.
Count Vanevsky and others held many private talks.
These people are all members of the Bonaparte family. Joseph is the younger brother of Napoleon III, the Duke of Morny is the half-brother, and Alexander is Napoleon's illegitimate son.
And Emperor Zhu Da...well, according to European tradition, from the day he married Charlotte, he was also a member of the Bonaparte family, and his son even had the right to inherit the throne of the French Empire. It was not him and Eugenie
Yes, it's with Charlotte.
If one day all members of Napoleon's family are exterminated, his son can inherit the throne of France. Of course, this will definitely require various complicated procedures.
But he didn't care at all about the French crown. Does Napoleon's crown have the fragrance of the Ming Empire?
The topic they talked about only revolved around one center - how to help Emperor Napoleon IV, their nephew, consolidate the throne.
As dignitaries in the empire, they knew very well that their glory and wealth came entirely from the emperor. If the emperor's throne was unstable or he lost his throne, they would lose something.
Of course that's all.
"When Louis was alive, he could still win votes by winning elections. Even the most stubborn opposition had to admit this. He had never lost any election and he had always been popular with the people. But what about now?
"
In the smoking room, Prince Joseph Jerome smoked a cigar helplessly.
"Our nephew and Louis are two completely different types of people. Louis has neither Louis' eloquent speech ability nor his affinity. It's really hard for me to imagine what will happen once he loses the election!"
Turning his attention to the Duke of Morny, the head of the imperial legislative body, Joseph said.
"What do you think? What will happen then?"
"Lose everything!"
Duke Morny said directly.
"Louis's throne came from the election. Once Eugène lost the election, the liberals and the royalists (Bourbon) would see an opportunity, and the empire would immediately collapse."
Then Duke Morny looked at everyone and said.
"The only good thing is that Louis just won an election for us before he died. God can testify that four years later, if Eugene cannot be like Louis, he will definitely lose the crown!"
Yes, before Louis died, he had just won the election, but what about the future?
"Queen Mother, do you know all this?"
Count Vanevsky took a sip of tea and said.
"The Queen Mother, she is still immersed in sorrow! As for Eugène, that poor child has no idea what he should do. He can't do everything Louis can do!"
In the forest path near the Palace of Fontainebleau on the outskirts of Paris, a champagne-colored BMW car was parked there. Its body was shaking constantly, and the windows were covered with white. I don’t know if it was because of the cold outside.
In the mist, in the violently shaking carriage, women's uninhibited and indulgent shouts could be heard from time to time.
The dusk became darker and darker, and the car shook more and more violently. Finally, it was accompanied by a beast-like roar. At the same time, a palm slammed on the car window, revealing a clear palm print. The car finally calmed down.
Come down.
Amidst the heavy breathing, Emperor Zhu Da and Eugenie in the carriage finally slowly calmed down. Even if she was accompanied by her best friend, Eugenie still missed her lover. No, she took advantage of her best friend to go exercise.
, she also came out to "exercise".
Lying limply in his arms, Eugenie, who was feeling lazy and weak, moved her fingertips in front of him. Although her face was flushed, she slowly regained her consciousness and looked at Zhu Xianhai and said.
"My dear, what have you been discussing with them these past few days?"
Looking into the woman's beautiful eyes, Zhu Xianhai did not hide her intentions.
"Eugène."
"Are you, like them, worried that he won't be able to hold on to his crown as tightly as Louis?"
Lying on her lover's warm and hard chest, Eugenie sighed helplessly.
"Eugène is different from Louis. Louis has experienced a lot. He has also lived at the bottom for a long time. He is familiar with how political games are played and how to win the votes of ordinary people. But Eugène, he was born in the palace, he did not know how to win the votes of ordinary people.
If he doesn’t know how to win an election, doesn’t understand what those people are thinking, or even knows how to please them, he will never be Louis!”
He looked up at Zhu Xianhai and said in an extremely serious tone.
"If one day, I mean, one day, when he loses his crown, will you provide us with shelter?"
What has Eugenie been most worried about?
Of course it’s a revolution!
Being born in Spain, of course she did not trust the French. The French beheaded Queen Mary, and the mob even insulted the queen. France...there were thugs all over the place!
Therefore, if her son loses the throne, she will definitely choose to leave. Who knows what those mobs will do?
Go there?
Perhaps Britain is a good place, and Victoria would welcome her. However, she would rather go to Daming, after all, he is there.
It seems that even if everything happens, it is not unacceptable. In fact, even as a queen, she is also a love brain to a certain extent.
Of course, if she had a choice, she would definitely hope that her son could keep the crown. At the same time, of course, she could continue to enjoy this kind of unethical love.
"I welcome you to Ming Dynasty at any time, but don't worry, Ou Ren will never lose the throne!"
The reason why he made this commitment was not because of his personal relationship with Eugenie, but because Ming Dynasty needed a French empire that was closely tied to its own interests.
Because of this, he must help Eugene keep his throne. Only in this way can he ensure that France will not betray the Ming Dynasty in the next ten or even 20 years.
Caressing her delicate shoulders, Zhu Xianhai said seriously.
"Yes, Eugène will never become Louis. He does not have as many experiences as Louis. Louis is in exile, in prison, and on the stage of politicians, winning the throne step by step. What Louis can achieve, others will never be able to achieve."
It may be possible, but..."
Looking at Eugenie in his arms, Zhu Xianhai said,
"Eugène is Eugène, why should he be like Louis?"
