Jerome Bonaparte instantly understood what Count Falloux meant. Between the royal family and the church, Count Falloux gave priority to the church rather than the royal family.
Of course, the reason why Count Falloux chose the church was not entirely because he was loyal to the church, but because he could not see any possibility of the orthodox royal family winning.
The strength of the Orthodox faction does not occupy many seats in the Party of Order, and their Majesty does not allow them to unite with the Orleans faction in the Party of Order.
This means that they can only rely on their own strength to put their monarch on the throne.
Had they had overwhelming power in Parliament, the original peerless cabinet would not have crumbled under the opposition of everyone in Paris, and Charles X would not have gone into exile.
Not to mention that now that the older generation of royalists are withering away, the power they have will only become weaker than before.
It is simply impossible for them to do it on their own.
Rather than clinging to an unattainable dream, it is better for their monarch to understand the dilemma they are facing.
Count Falloux, who had suffered years of oppression under the Orleans dynasty, also learned to hedge his bets.
Although he was still full of respect for Count Chambord in his heart, reality had to make him lower his head.
The support of Count Falloux and some of the religious sects behind him greatly increased Jérôme Bonaparte's confidence.
Once the Orthodox and Orleans factions break, Odilon Barro, even with his great ability, will not be able to bridge the differences between the two parties.
Unless Odilon Barro can transform into Yuri and control Count Chambord.
[ps: Since the royal voice of the Count of Chambord was only spread within a small area, Odilon Barrot at this time still had the dream of uniting the Orleanists and the Orthodox. 】
"Count Fallo, please rest assured! After Odilon Barro is dismissed, the position of Minister of Public Education will still belong to you!" Jérôme Bonaparte promised Count Fallo.
"No need!" Count Falloux shook his head and rejected Jérôme Bonaparte's promise.
Somewhat frustrated with the orthodox faction, he did not want to stay too long as Minister of Public Education.
"If I still stay in the position of Minister of Public Education, then my colleagues will definitely think that I have been bribed by you! My loyalty does not allow me to serve two monarchs at the same time, please understand!" Count Falloux asked Gérault
M. Bonaparte explained.
"Alas!" Jerome Bonaparte sighed, knowing that Count Falloux rejected his olive branch.
"Your Excellency, I hope that the education reform will continue after I leave office. We cannot let those liberal republicans poison the next generation of France. We must let them know what reverence and obedience are. Only in this way can you
Only then can the rule be more stable!" Count Fallou said firmly to Jerome Bonaparte.
Jérôme Bonaparte listened quietly to every word of Count Falloux. He knew that this was the last "reward" that Count Falloux wanted to get.
"Mr. Fallou, please rest assured! After your resignation, France's education reform will continue! I will choose a capable and responsible person to serve as the standard bearer of education reform! I also agree with what you said,
We must prevent corrupt free thoughts from harming the new generation from the source of our thoughts! Only under the influence of order and morality can France become stronger!"
Jérôme Bonaparte did not like to use religious ideas to fool and control people, but the fierce horses of France needed religion as a tranquilizer to allow him to tame them temporarily.
During this time, he will train millions of bureaucrats, generals and engineers. They will go deep into the grassroots and gradually replace religion.
At that time, he can kick religion away without mercy.
Jérôme Bonaparte talked with Fallo for nearly half an hour, and Count Fallo was sent away through the back door by Jérôme Bonaparte himself.
Jérôme Bonaparte, who watched Count Falloux leave, returned to the study, pulled out a blank red invitation from the study drawer, wrote the inviter and date with an emerald pen, and then turned to order the servants.
Send the invitation to the inviter.
…
A group of dragoons wearing green armor rode up to Count Ople's castle and knocked on the door of Count Ople's house. Count Ople opened the door himself.
"Count Opul, this is your invitation!" The dragoon respectfully handed the invitation to Count Opul.
Count Opple, who received the invitation, expressed his gratitude to the dragoon.
The dragoons who delivered the invitation to Count Ople rode away.
Looking at the dragoon's leaving figure, Count Opple opened the folded invitation.
The content of the invitation was roughly to invite him to attend a dinner at the Elysée Palace tomorrow afternoon.
Count Opple, who had not seen the president for nearly two months, returned to the castle excitedly and hugged his wife, who was more than 20 years older than her.
"When did it happen?" his wife asked Count Opple curiously.
"I received an invitation from the president!" Count Opple responded excitedly to his wife.
"Huh?" The wife was still puzzled. She was just accepting an invitation, so what's the fuss?
"You don't understand!" Count Opple saw his wife's doubts, and he was not in the mood to explain to his wife at the moment.
On the evening of September 21st, night fell.
Under a sky dotted with stars, a carriage departs from Chateau d'Opple to the Elysée Palace.
The carriage traveled smoothly and soon arrived at the Elysée Palace.
Led by his servants, Earl Ople came to the restaurant, and the two servants worked together to open the door of the restaurant.
Jérôme Bonaparte, the host of the restaurant, and the people on the long dining table stared at him silently.
Huh? Why are they all here?
Count Opul suddenly discovered that he knew many people in the restaurant, and the presence of some people even surprised Count Opul.
"Our protagonist is here!" Jérôme Bonaparte said with a hint of ridicule.
"Your Excellency the President!" Count Opul saluted respectfully to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"Sit down!" Jérôme Bonaparte said, pointing to the first empty seat on his right.
Count Opple looked at the seat next to Jérôme Bonaparte, and he had a vague feeling that this dinner was more than just eating.
However, he had already prepared before coming.
Count Opul sat beside Jérôme Bonaparte.
As Count Opal sat down, the dinner officially began, and delicious dishes were placed in front of everyone.
After all the dishes were served and the wine was poured, Jérôme Bonaparte stood up and said: "Everyone, let us raise a toast to the Republic!"
Everyone present stood up and raised their glasses, and Adolf Fuld immediately shouted: "Long live Bonaparte, long live the Republic!"
Everyone present followed Adolf Fuld and shouted "Long live" together.
Then he drank all the brandy in the cup.
"Everyone, please take a seat! Please take a seat!" Jérôme Bonaparte motioned for everyone to sit down again.
After everyone sat down again, Jerome Bonaparte looked at all the people around him, and then said: "You are all loyal friends of our Bonaparte family, and I don't have to hide some things from you! I will
Even Odilon Barrow's younger brother, Ferdinand Barrow, did not show any excessive expressions about his brother's dismissal.
It seemed as if Count Opal was the only one in the entire dinner who didn't know anything about it.
[Ferdinand Barrot (January 10, 1806 - November 12, 1883): French Bonapartist politician, brother of Odilon Barrot, participated in the 1836 Battle of Strasbourg with Louis Napoleon
He was acquitted of the attempted coup d’état launched by the Fort and was “reviewed” by a jury.]
"You will become the new cabinet minister of finance!" Jérôme Bonaparte turned his attention to Adolf Fuld, and his meaning was self-evident.
"Minister of the Interior!" Jérôme Bonaparte turned his eyes to Ferdinand Barrot, who smiled.
"There are also ministers from other departments!" Jérôme Bonaparte said unhurriedly: "Of course, there is also the most important prime minister."
Jérôme Bonaparte's naked private act of conferment ignited a flame called ambition in the hearts of everyone present.
Count Opul, who was sitting next to Jérôme Bonaparte, was also thinking about which department the president might give him.
After thinking for a moment, Count Opple believed that if the president really wanted him to hold an important position, the most likely position would be Minister of Military Affairs.
Count Opple's heart became even more intense when he thought that he would take over Liuelli's military power.
The entire dinner lasted for nearly two and a half hours, and the guests at the dinner bid farewell to Jerome Bonaparte one after another.
Count Opul also wanted to say goodbye to Jerome Bonaparte, but Jerome Bonaparte stopped him and said: "General Opul, please wait a moment!"
Count Opple quietly waited for Jérôme Bonaparte to send everyone out of the Elysée Palace.
"Let's go to the study and talk!" Jérôme Bonaparte took Opal to the study.
Entering the study, Jerome Bonaparte immediately said to Count Opul: "General Opul, I want you to serve as the prime minister of the new cabinet! I don't know what you want!"
Count Opul looked at Jérôme Bonaparte with an expression of surprise. He thought he might become Minister of War, but was told that he would be appointed Prime Minister of the Cabinet.
Opple's first reaction was not joy, but an inexplicable sense of absurdity.
Let a warrior with no experience in governing for a day govern France??
