Chapter 11: The Surprise of Jerome

"Please sit down!"

Prince Albert, with a hint of deep weariness on his face, politely invited Dr. James to sit down. After Dr. James carefully sat down on the corner of the long sofa, Prince Albert sat down.

Prince Albert, who had just sat down, asked politely: "Tea? Or coffee?"

"Your Highness, there is no need to go to such trouble!" Dr. James responded with a flattered wave of his hand.

Prince Albert seemed to turn a deaf ear and said to himself: "Then tea! It's been a long time since I tasted the black tea sent as tribute by the East India Company!"

John Brown, who was standing aside, saluted Prince Albert and then left the room to prepare snacks for Prince Albert.

Only Prince Albert and Dr. James were left in the room, and the whole room fell into a brief silence.

Dr. James placed his hands demurely on his legs, his eyes secretly meowing at Prince Albert from time to time, waiting for Prince Albert to speak.

"Doctor James, how is Louis Bonaparte's condition now?" Albert's London accent, full of German accent, reached Dr. James's ears, which gave Dr. James a sense of peace in his anxious heart. You are not afraid if you have the truth.

If the leader doesn't speak up, you are afraid that the leader won't speak up. Once the leader doesn't speak up, it means that the work you do makes him very dissatisfied, and the rest of the results will be self-evident.

Dr. James adjusted his state in a very short time, reorganized his words and said: "Your Royal Highness, Louis Bonaparte's situation is not optimistic. Cholera has affected his organs and it is estimated that he will not last long!"

Dr. James raised his head slightly to observe Albert's expression. Dr. James did not find any clues from Albert's expression. Dr. James, who was panicking, added again: "However, I will try my best to treat Louis.

Bonaparte!”

Prince Albert looked indifferent, and he could only say that he had a trace of regret in his heart about Louis Bonaparte's condition.

Although Prince Albert had never met Louis Bonaparte, Prince Albert had learned about Louis Bonaparte from the mouths of the Mayor of London and those British bureaucrats who had contact with Louis Bonaparte.

everything of.

From a British perspective, Louis Bonaparte is undoubtedly an excellent chess piece. If used properly, it can undoubtedly have a huge impact on France. The dual characteristics of revolution and conservatism represented by Bonaparte will provide

Britain stabilized the turbulent country across the Channel.

Albert had a headache when he thought of the turbulent country on the other side of the Taiwan Strait. Revolution was like a cancer that could quickly spread from one country to another. Normally obedient subjects would turn into mobs under the poison of revolution.

In order to stabilize France, Britain has thought of countless ways. They used bayonets to put the Bourbon dynasty, which represented the old system, on the throne in an attempt to restore the old system in France. However, the Bourbon dynasty's throne has not lasted 20 years, to be precise.

It is said that in the 14th year, he was overthrown by the Paris mob and the king was forced to flee into exile.

The young Bourbon branch ascended the throne of France. In order to maintain the existing order and prevent the French mob from returning to power, Britain pinched its nose and recognized the kingdom founded by the descendants of the regicide.

However, the Bourbon Sprig Kingdom only survived for 18 years before it was overthrown by another revolution.

The republic that once terrified the whole of Europe was established, and the obedient people suppressed by Britain gradually stopped being submissive.

Fortunately, the republic on the other side did not incite mobs across Europe to rebel against their monarchs, as its predecessors had done decades earlier. They abandoned this strong tone and focused only on preserving themselves.

Britain and the whole of Europe breathed a sigh of relief, but Albert was not willing to believe in this republic. As long as the republic existed, it would be the sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of all European monarchies. The army armed with millions of mobs would

Like locusts hoping to overwhelm all of Europe.

Once they unite with the mob under the European monarchies, no country in Europe will be able to resist those guys, so they must find a guy who can control that violent country. Louis Bonaparte is obviously an excellent candidate.

With Bonaparte blood, he was obviously the natural ruler of France. He had the courageous heart of his uncle, but did not have his uncle's self-taught military command ability.

If he is allowed to become the ruler of France, France will become a country with more than enough defense but not enough offense.

Britain and all of Europe could rest easy, and the French Republic would not rule indefinitely.

Once France is stabilized, Albert can use the Orleans faction card in his hand to support the Bourbon family in power again.

But now that Louis Bonaparte is about to die, Albert can only turn to consider new candidates.

Bourbon young branches or Bourbon long branches?

While Albert was thinking about the next investment target of the British Kingdom, he stepped forward and patted Dr. James on the shoulder and said comfortingly: "Some things just need to be done your best, Dr. James!"

"I understand! Your Highness!" Although James said it clearly, he still felt a little guilty in his heart.

Prince Albert entrusted him with such an important task, but he failed to complete it. He betrayed Prince Albert's trust in her.

Wait! Maybe you can tell His Highness the Prince about this!

Dr. James suddenly thought of something, and he hurriedly reported: "Your Highness, Louis Bonaparte's brother Jérôme Bonaparte came to London from France?"

"Huh?" Albert showed a slight interest and nodded to himself: "Louis Bonaparte is his cousin. It is reasonable for him to come to London from France to visit Louis Bonaparte!"

"Your Highness, I also heard that Jerome Bonaparte is preparing to participate in the elections in France!" Dr. James quickly added.

This time Prince Albert could no longer maintain a calm attitude. The Bonaparte family participated in the French elections. This news was really surprising.

"France actually agreed to allow the Bonaparte family to participate in the election!" Prince Albert then realized that he still knew too little about the internal situation of the French Republic. Is it because the Republicans deliberately indulged themselves, or there are other reasons.

.

"Your Highness, please be careful! Jérôme Bonaparte is an ambitious guy!" Dr. James said worriedly: "He wants France to return to Bonaparte's arms, and for that

Take action!”
