Jerome's insinuation made Dr. James embarrassed for several seconds. This revolutionary wind blown by the London Stock Exchange [Note 1] did not set off a revolution in the place where it originated. Instead, it set off a revolution on the other side of the English Channel.
A massive revolutionary movement, which in turn affected Britain and forced Britain to reform.
In order to protect his remaining patriotism, Dr. James stiffened his neck and retorted: "We Angsa people are a nation with a spirit of contract, and we will definitely not be like those mobs in France!"
"Hahahaha... the spirit of contract?" Jérôme couldn't help laughing.
This laughter made Dr. James feel annoyed, and he couldn't help but refute: "Your Excellency, what's so funny about this!"
Jérôme suppressed his smile and responded with a very crooked expression: "Sir, what you call the spirit of contract is that factory owners are free to fire workers? Does the fact that poor people are free to starve to death represent the spirit of contract? Does the abolition of the Poor Law also represent the spirit of contract?
?”
Gérôme's barrage of questions left Dr. James speechless. With his petty bourgeois nature, he had a hint of sympathy for the lower class, but also hated change.
Any change might cause him to fall down in class, and James felt uncomfortable every time he thought about being among those dirty workers.
Not to mention that the British Kingdom demonized the revolution day and night, making the middle class prefer reform to revolution.
After a while, James retorted: "The revolution brings only destruction and chaos! It brings opportunities for careerists to take advantage of it. You, the Bonaparte family, were the beneficiaries of the original riot! Of course you spared no effort in propaganda
revolution!"
"Sir!" Jérôme, faced with the issue of Bonaparte's honor, had a very solemn expression. He flicked the dust off his shirt and said in a serious tone: "The Bonaparte family has never been a beneficiary of the revolution! The Bonaparte family's
The glory never comes from an ancient surname, but from all the French people.
The Bonaparte family was chosen by the French people to become the spokesperson of the French people. When France does not need Bonaparte, the French people will let France withdraw from the stage! The revolution may bring about disorderly riots, but the riots will not last long!
A new government will appear! Whether it is a republic or an empire, it is just a product of maintaining order! Moreover, France is not a nation that can only riot. Revolutions will always have highs and lows. The Bonaparte family
We are also not a radical family, we also long for a group..."
While promoting his revolutionary conservative theory, Jérôme carefully observed Dr. James's expression.
Dr. James was a little resistant to Jerome's answer at first, but when Jerome talked about maintaining the existing order and system and making appropriate reforms, Dr. James's expression gradually agreed.
Hope everything goes well!
Jérôme thought silently in his mind.
"Okay! Your Excellency, I am just a doctor, and I am not interested in political topics!" Dr. James, who still had something to say, said something to Jérôme against his will.
"Sorry doctor!" Jérôme responded with the same pretense of apology: "I am a person who always talks endlessly when it comes to politics!"
"Huh?" Dr. James's eyes flashed, and he still asked casually: "Your Excellency, I heard that France is holding a general election! I don't know if you will go to participate!"
"Of course!" Jérôme nodded without hesitation, and then added: "Not just me, the entire Bonaparte family will attend!"
"Do you want to return to France?" Dr. James' tone was a little hasty. He seemed a little too concerned about the situation of the Bonaparte family.
"I said that as long as the French people need it, the Bonaparte family can re-enter the stage at any time!" Jerome responded with a smile.
Then, the conversation changed: "However, the Bonaparte family is unwilling to destroy the order under the existing system! The era of revolution has passed, and the Bonaparte family does not want to take on the task of destroying Europe!"
"You can't..."
Dr. James seemed to want to say something, but Jérôme immediately interrupted Dr. James and reminded: "Doctor, the topic we are discussing has exceeded the boundary between doctors and family members! I now doubt that what I am facing is not
Not a doctor, but a British bureaucrat!"
Only then did Dr. James realize that he seemed to have overstepped his bounds. He smiled and turned around and entered the room.
Jérôme, who stayed where he was, muttered softly: "I wonder if these words will reach Buckingham Palace. It's really exciting!"
In the room, Dr. James told Louis Bonaparte and Miss Howard about intravenous injections and the physical condition of Napoleon III.
"You mean Louis, his body can't support it for much longer?"
Although Howard had already been bold in her heart, she still couldn't help crying when the doctor issued the death verdict.
"Yes!" Dr. James said regretfully: "The prince's disease was discovered too late. Now all we can do is to extend the prince's life as much as possible! Although the intravenous injection method is somewhat dangerous, it may make the prince
You can hold on longer!"
"Risk your life just to keep Louis alive longer! I don't agree?" Howard rejected Dr. James's suggestion.
Dr. James turned his attention to Jerome, and he hoped that Jerome could convince Howard!
"Doctor, I agree with your plan!" Louis Bonaparte's weak voice came from the hospital bed!
"No, Louis, that's too dangerous!" Howard grabbed Louis' hand and responded: "Can't lose you!"
"Howard, it's nothing!" Napoleon III comforted in a hoarse voice: "I have been in the hail of bullets in Italy, and this danger is nothing to me!" [Note 2]
The critically ill Louis Bonaparte seemed to have regained his former glory, and an indescribable confidence and calmness burst out of his body.
At the request of Louis Bonaparte, Howard agreed to the intravenous treatment plan.
ps: 1. The failure of the Irish potato harvest in 1847 triggered fluctuations in the British stock exchange market. The promoted railway bubble was ruthlessly shattered along with the fluctuations and spread throughout Europe. Under the double blow of the economic downturn and the potato crisis, the people of Paris
A huge revolution was launched.
2. In 1831, Napoleon III and his brother participated in the anti-Pope uprising in Rome. In the end, the two brothers did not fully participate in the uprising because of the attitude of the rebel leaders towards Austria and France.
