Chapter 136 Holiday Exchange

August 2, 1849, early morning.

The morning sunlight shines into the room through the thick curtains embroidered with the golden bee logo. The slightly hot beams of light spread along the red Persian carpet to the corner of the bed, adding a touch of light to the dim bedroom.

On a large carved mahogany bed covered with silk curtains, Jérôme Bonaparte, who was only wearing a shirt and shorts, was lying flat on the bed with his eyes closed and placed a red word "big" on the bed.

The thin blanket had long been "discarded" on the Persian carpet along with the clothes.

"Dang, Dang, Dang!"

In the corner of the bedroom, a heavy mechanical clock wrapped in a rococo-style walnut shell suddenly made a dull but rhythmic single chime when the clock pointed to 12 o'clock.

The grand grandfather clock struck 12 times and stopped. Jérôme Bonaparte, who was lying on the bed, had just woken up. When he was half asleep and wanted to rub his sleepy eyes with his right hand, he found that he could not feel his right hand.

, there is only a numb feeling in my right hand.

Feeling something strange coming from his right hand, Jérôme Bonaparte instantly dispelled the sleepiness that swept over him. He did not want to become a "cripple" like the future Emperor of the German Empire, a narcissist and the destroyer of the empire, Wilhelm II.

Jérôme Bonaparte opened his eyes and turned his head to the right. Only then did he realize that his right hand had been resting on the head of a lady wearing a black dress.

The lady lying on the bed was the Marquise Allais, the mistress of Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Damn it, what did I do yesterday?" Jérôme Bonaparte muttered in a low voice. With a gap in his memory, he only remembered that he was "warmly" invited by Baron Achille Fuld to go to his place yesterday.

Attend Achille Fuld's dinner in a mansion comparable to the Tuileries Palace.

During the dinner, Jérôme Bonaparte met the Marchioness of Allais and the Marquis of Allais, a couple who seemed to be inseparable.

The Marquis of Allais almost humbly expressed to Jérôme Bonaparte that he would be unconditionally loyal to the president if he needed it, and he also thanked the president for allowing him to share in the railway bonds.

Jérôme Bonaparte, whose thoughts were not on the Marquis of Allais, just casually encouraged the Marquis of Allais for a few words, and then turned his attention to the Marquis of Allais, intentionally or unintentionally.

During the dinner, the Marchioness of Allais was still so radiant. She wore a long black dress decorated with butterfly flowers. The exposed collarbone could vaguely see the black bra inside. She wore a certain black floral hat on her head and also a pair of flowers on her feet.

The small black leather shoes and the overall outfit give people a sense of mystery and temptation, like a rose with thorns.

Perhaps because she was accompanied by her husband, the Marchioness of Allais only paid a slight tribute to her lover Jerome Bonaparte, and then, regardless of the consent of the Marquis of Allais, she brought the Marquis of Allais and Jérôme Bonaparte.

Looking at the back of the Marquise Allais as she walked into the crowd, Jérôme Bonaparte felt a little regretful.

After the Marchioness of Allais left, Achille Fuld ran out of nowhere. Under his leadership, Jérôme Bonaparte met with a group of influential bankers in Paris, including

The brothers Emile Perel and Isaac Perel, the founders of the future Mobilian Bank that Jérôme Bonaparte was familiar with, were brothers of the famous industrialist Eugene Schneider and Adolf Schneider, his brother.

[ps: Eugene Schneider and Adolf Schneider are the first generation founders of Schneider Electric. Schneider Electric started from the banking industry and entered the industry. It experienced many twists and turns and finally became the current Schneider Electric. It can be said to be a century-old brand.



Bankers eager to climb high came to have a warm conversation with Jérôme Bonaparte, and then toasted to Jerome Bonaparte. In order to maintain the unity of the financial industry, Jerome Bonaparte drank one glass at a time.

coping.

Finally, Jérôme Bonaparte, who barely managed to cope with the banker's wheel battle, wandered away from the crowd and came to a corner to rest. In the haze, he seemed to see a black thing coming towards him.

He knew nothing about what happened after that.

Jérôme Bonaparte, who was holding back his headache, wanted to free his unconscious right hand from the restraints of the Marquise Allais, but he did not want to wake up the Marquise Allais with too much force.

The Marchioness of Allais woke up slowly. She felt something strange coming from her neck. She subconsciously turned her head and glanced, only to find that her neck was pressing Jérôme Bonaparte's arm. She quickly raised her head and apologized:

"sorry!"

Then, he lowered his head in slight shame?

"Nothing!" Jérôme Bonaparte used his left hand to drag his right hand that had lost intuition up and rub it back and forth to restore intuition.

Seeing this, the Marchioness of Allais also used her slender palms to help Jérôme Bonaparte "activate blood and remove blood stasis."

After a few minutes, Jérôme Bonaparte's right hand finally regained his intuition, and the numbness in his right hand became even more intense.

Jérôme Bonaparte clenched and unclenched his palms back and forth, and asked the Marquise Allais: "By the way, why are you here? And, where is this place?"

The Marchioness of Allais showed an expression of astonishment and asked with confusion: "You really don't remember?"

Feeling the numbness in his arms subside, Jérôme Bonaparte raised his hand to press his temples to relieve the headache caused by drinking and said: "I only remember that I was attending the dinner of Baron Achille Fuld, and what happened after that

I don’t know at all! By the way, there is also a black shadow!”

The Marchioness of Allais came behind Jerome Bonaparte and pushed away the hand that Jérôme Bonaparte was pressing on his temple. She personally helped Jérôme Bonaparte relieve his headache and told what happened next.

Jerome Bonaparte's drunken posture happened to be seen by the Marquise Allais. She was also a little drunk from drinking, but she came to Jerome Bonaparte's side and helped him up.

At the same time, Achille Fuld also noticed that Jerome Bonaparte seemed to be no longer in the main venue of the dinner, and he hurriedly looked for Jerome Bonaparte.

When he saw Jerome Bonaparte, he found that Jerome Bonaparte was being supported by the Marchioness of Allais.

According to the president's current drunken behavior, it is definitely impossible to return to the Elysée Palace.

It wouldn't be good if some tabloid reporters caught me drunk and acting gauche on the way back.

For the sake of the president, Baron Achille Fuld kindly suggested that the Marquise Allais place the president in a room in his mansion.

Looking at Jérôme Bonaparte who was almost falling down, the Marquise Allais could only nod in agreement.

Baron Achille Fuld brought the Marchioness of Allais and Jérôme Bonaparte to a room, and ordered his servants to fetch two candlesticks, each with four candles.

They were placed on the bedside and the round walnut table respectively. The whole room was lit up. After finishing all this, Ashil Fuld and his servants left the room and closed the door.

The Marchioness of Allais wanted to help Jerome Bonaparte take off his clothes and then leave. Unexpectedly, after taking off his trousers, the drunken Jerome Bonaparte pinned her down on the bed and made her unable to move.

The Marchioness of Allais, who was already a little sleepy, also fell into sleep after seeing that she could not move.

After listening to the story of the Marchioness of Allais, Jérôme Bonaparte took another look at the furnishings in the room and said, "So, we slept all night in the Baron's house!"

"That's right!" The Marquise Allais continued to press Jérôme Bonaparte's temples with her fingers.

"Your husband is really a considerate person!" Jérôme Bonaparte teased the Marquise de Allais in a eloquent tone: "My wife didn't come home all night and he didn't even look for her!"

The Marchioness of Allais showed a charming expression and said to Jerome Bonaparte in a cooing voice: "Mr. President, if women in Paris do not come home, they have either disappeared or gone to do their own business!"

The Marquise of Allais' naked provocation made Jérôme Bonaparte no longer able to control the commotion in his body. He turned around and hugged the Marchioness of Allais.

"My wife's career line is very volatile! This is not good, let me help some ladies!"

The long black skirt was peeled off in the blink of an eye, and the black bra was also thrown to the ground.

Not long after, a low whisper came from the room.

"God! Father! Forgive me! Oh! Harder!"

"Oh! My Virgin Mary! No...no..."



Forty minutes later, the humming stopped.

After another 20 minutes, the door slowly opened, and a refreshed Jérôme Bonaparte and the Marquise Allais came out with a blush on their cheeks.

The servant in charge of cleaning the corridor saw this and quickly reported it to Achille Fuld.

Achill Fuld, who was greeting Pesini in the living room, smiled after hearing the servant's report: "Count Pesini, the President is awake!"

[ps: Pesini likes to let them call him count in front of other people!]

Pesini, who was enjoying tea, quickly put down the tea set and greeted Jérôme Bonaparte together with Achille Fuld.

When Jérôme Bonaparte was about to leave without saying goodbye, he heard from his servant that a "guest" had arrived. Achille Fuld and Pesini appeared at Jérôme Bonaparte's house.

The only way to go.

"Your Excellency, President!"

"Your Excellency, President!"

Pesini and Achille Fuld shouted to Jérôme Bonaparte almost at the same time.

"Pessini, Monsieur Baron!" Jérôme Bonaparte then understood that the "guest" was Pesigny.

Then, the two of them glanced at the Marquise Allais, who was being held by Jérôme Bonaparte, and said at the same time: "Madam!"

The Marchioness of Allais nodded slightly, then let go of Jérôme Bonaparte's hand and said, "I'm going back first!"

"Yeah!" Jérôme Bonaparte nodded.

The Marchioness of Allais left alone, Jérôme Bonaparte asked Pesigny: "Pessini, did you have something to do at the baron's house?"

"I..." Pesini glanced at Baron Achille Fuld, and his meaning was self-evident.

Just when Baron Achille Fuld was about to evade, he heard Jérôme Bonaparte say: "Mr. Baron is not an outsider, tell me!"
