"Miss Nightingale, there is still a difference between you and Wilnia! I can tell you frankly that the reason why Wilnia appears here is entirely due to my instruction. My purpose is to enable Wilnia to accumulate
To protect her reputation, if possible, I want her to leave her name in the history books."
Since only Jérôme Bonaparte, Vernia and Nightingale were present, Jérôme Bonaparte could inform Nightingale of his purpose without hesitation.
Nightingale smiled slightly and responded to Jérôme Bonaparte in a flattering tone: "Your Majesty, thank you for being honest with me! I can also tell you frankly that the purpose of my coming here is also to hope that I can
Rely on my own efforts and leave a mark in history!
So in my opinion, no matter what purpose she comes here for, as long as she can persist in doing it, she should be respected!"
"Miss Nightingale, I believe you can do it!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Nightingale in a positive tone, "I believe that even if our names disappear in the long river of history, you
His name will also be engraved on the history of mankind forever and become an immortal monument of human history! Just like Sir Newton..."
Jerome Bonaparte's comments on Nightingale made Nightingale feel flattered.
"Your Majesty, you are so humble!" Nightingale said to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"No!" Jérôme Bonaparte shook his head and responded to Nightingale: "I'm not being modest! Throughout history, how many princes and nobles have we seen! How many people here are memorable.
, people will not remember which emperor of France or what the king did! They will only remember those key figures who made some outstanding contributions to history and promoted the development of history! They will not remember what a certain country did, but they
You will remember that Sir Isaac Newton discovered gravity, and that Mr. Lavoisier improved the steam engine... Miss Nightingale, you are becoming the person who changes the entire history!"
Jérôme Bonaparte's answer caused Nightingale and Vilniabi to feel a sense of panic. Neither of them knew whether they could become the change that Jérôme Bonaparte said.
characters throughout history.
"Your Majesty, you are exaggerating!" Nightingale responded to Jérôme Bonaparte with a wry smile: "I am just a small person, and there is no way I can become the big person who drives history as you said."
"Miss Nightingale, everyone who promotes history is composed of inconspicuous little people!" Jerome Bonaparte continued to say to Nightingale: "In my opinion, you and
Vernia's name will inevitably be engraved with the history of mankind, you just need to have a plan!"
"What a plan!" Nightingale and Vernia came out.
"After the war is over, you two will definitely gain a reputation that is difficult for ordinary people to achieve! At that time, you can teach more people all the knowledge you learned on the battlefield!" Jerome Bonaparte said half-heartedly.
To Nightingale and Vernia.
"You mean to start a school!" Nightingale blurted out.
"It can't be said that it was founded!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and responded to Nightingale: "In fact, we already have a nursing school in France, but for some reasons, this school has always been
It is in the stage of opening and closing, so I would like to invite you to serve as the leader of this group of schools after the war, teach more outstanding students, and spread compassion throughout the world!
The world cannot be changed by the power of one person alone. Only by uniting more like-minded people and using your strength in one place can it be possible to change the world!"
Having said this, Jérôme Bonaparte showed a pious expression on his face (pretend), seeming to feel honored that he could complete a great cause.
After listening to Jerome Bonaparte's speech, Nightingale also developed a mentality of Christ redeeming the world.
The emperor is right. She and her volunteer team alone cannot change the world. Only by educating more and more people like her can she truly change the world!
"Your Majesty, you are right!!" Nangel nodded and said to Jerome Bonaparte.
"Miss Nightingale, you agree!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Nightingale with a smile.
"Your Majesty, it is my honor to be able to participate in this great cause! I believe that your kindness will still be praised by people in a hundred or thousand years!" Miss Nightingale told Jerome Bonaparte.
Praise.
She knew that with Jerome Bonaparte's power, if he wanted to, he could do it without Nightingale.
Since the emperor chose her, Nightingale must go all out.
Jérôme Bonaparte shook his head and replied to Nightingale: "Miss Nightingale, it will be Vernia and you who will be praised in a thousand years, and I will only be remembered in a certain period of time in the future.
People criticized the teaching materials in the first place!”
"No! A benevolent monarch like you..." Nightingale said to Jerome Bonaparte.
"Mercy?" Jérôme Bonaparte's mouth showed self-mockery, and he said in a calm tone: "Mercy is not a compliment to a promising monarch, but a derogation!
And do you think the man who sent thousands of French athletes to war would be a benevolent monarch?"
Nightingale was silent. She found that she could not see through this monarch.
"The ancient Greek philosopher Epic once said, I stepped on a stage not chosen by us and performed a play not chosen by us!" Jerome Bonaparte seemed to be saying to himself: "So each of us
Everyone should try their best to act out this play! Miss Nightingale, I hope you can promise me one thing?"
"I hope you will not inject too much pity during the treatment!" Jérôme Bonaparte said to Nightingale without any emotion.
"Why? I am a nurse, shouldn't I understand the patient?" Nightingale blurted out.
"Miss Nightingale, too much pity will only make you lose your judgment!" Jerome Bonaparte did not care about Nightingale's offense at all. He still responded calmly: "Just like Vernia
Likewise, just a few days ago, Vernia asked me why countries can't coexist peacefully? Why does the French Empire fight against the Russian Empire?"
"What did you say?" Nightingale asked curiously.
"I told Vernia that the prerequisite for peaceful coexistence is mutual respect and mutual understanding! When two countries cannot understand each other, it is impossible for them to coexist peacefully!" Jérôme Bonaparte told
Nightingale said: "When you go to the Crimean battlefield and see the soldiers lying on the ground and listen to their wailing, I believe you will doubt whether this war should continue! It is clear that Britain and France are
We haven't faced an existential crisis yet, so why should we let the young people of our two countries die in a foreign country for the sake of a country that doesn't want to do anything?"
Nightingale nodded subconsciously. She really didn't understand why she had to die for Osman.
"Then let me tell you, because the ambitions of the Russian Empire can never be satisfied. If we let them annex the Ottoman Empire without taking any action, their next target will be the Kingdom of Prussia, the Austrian Empire, and then the Netherlands and Belgium.
, Luxembourg, and finally France and Britain!" Jérôme Bonaparte began to create a correct historical memory for Nightingale: "There is a proverb in the ancient East that says, the lips are cold and the teeth are dead! The Ottoman Empire is the whole of Europe.
Lip, if it collapses! The entire Balkans will face collapse! By that time, we will probably invest more troops to maintain it!
How many more people will die in the long and endless security war?"
"It would be great if monarchs could decide the outcome of a country by dueling each other!" Nightingale muttered quietly.
"If that's the case, I would be happy to have a knightly duel with Nicholas I!" Jerome Bonaparte shrugged and said to Nightingale in a joking tone: "It's a pity that Nicholas I
I will never do this in this life! He will only curl up in a cold palace and stare at the whole of Europe with his sinister eyes!"
"Your Majesty, I can only promise you! I try not to get involved in political issues!" Nightingale responded to Jérôme Bonaparte with a wry smile: "But I will still sympathize with every patient of mine.
!”
"Okay!" Jérôme Bonaparte nodded and responded to Nightingale.
After the two continued to chat for a while, Jerome Bonaparte left Vernia's office.
Only Vernia and Nightingale were left in the office.
"Miss Vernia!" Nightingale said in a heavy tone.
"Huh?" Wilnia looked at Nightingale doubtfully.
"Your Majesty, has it always been like this?" Nightingale asked.
"No!" Wilnia shook her head and said, "Your Majesty is not like this when he is not talking about business!"
"It seems that Your Majesty attaches great importance to the issue just discussed!" Nightingale replied to Wilnia, and then changed the subject: "He also attaches great importance to you!"
Wilnia's face turned slightly red and she nodded noncommittally.
…
August 10, 1854.
After several days of preparations, Nightingale and Vernia took a wooden battleship to the Crimean Peninsula, where they were going to build a new hospital.
On August 12, Jerome Bonaparte announced that he was leaving Constantinople and returning to France.
That evening, Jérôme Bonaparte and Marshal Reignault, Richard Metternich, left Constantinople on a warship.
