Jerome Bonaparte believed that there is no love without reason in the world, and there is no pie without reason.
The position of Minister of Public Works has clearly come with a price tag.
"As long as you withdraw from this election, I can guarantee you that you will still be able to sit in this position in the next term!" Cavaignac set out his own conditions: "Believe me, the position of Minister of Public Works can give you and your
Friends bring unimaginable benefits!”
Jérôme Bonaparte waited quietly for Cavaignac to finish.
"What do you think of my proposal?" Cavaignac looked at Jerome Bonaparte and added: "You are still young! Start with the minister!"
"Cavaignac is in power!" Jérôme Bonaparte still had a smile on his face, but his tone was even colder: "Thank you for your kindness. I feel that my ability is not qualified for the position of Minister of Public Affairs."
"You can start as a secretary first!" Cavaignac, who was good at being straightforward, didn't seem to understand what Jérôme Bonaparte meant. He kindly said "for the sake of Jérôme Bonaparte".
"Mr. in power, it is not in line with the democratic spirit of France to blatantly award France's public and private assets!" Jérôme Bonaparte simply stopped beating around the bush. He clenched his fists and said in a strong tone: "What position I want, I can do it myself.
Go and fight for it, we don’t need your charity! Put away your charity face!”
"Why are you bothering!" Cavaignac said obviously unwillingly: "I can tell you a piece of news clearly. The constitution formulated by the upcoming Constitutional Committee stipulates that the term of the French president is four years. When it expires,
No re-election allowed! Do you know what that means?”
Jérôme Bonaparte Cavaignac was still calm, and his eyes seemed to reveal the calmness he had long known.
"This means that no matter who you are, you can only serve as president for four years!" Cavaignac continued: "Jérôme Bonaparte, you are still young and should have experienced more tempering before you are qualified to be president!"
"Cavaignac is in power, have you finished speaking?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked word by word the military leader in front of him who was blinded by the desire for power.
"I hope you can consider my suggestion! After another term of minister, serve as president! You can gain more!" Cavaignac said without giving up.
"Send off in Roue!" Jérôme Bonaparte didn't want to compromise with the guy in front of him for a moment. "Cavaignac is in power. If you really want to become president, just defeat me through votes in an upright manner, instead of
Use this method! Even if I don't participate in the election, can you guarantee that your votes will be higher than those of Ledru Roland and Lamartine?"
"Mr. Consul, please!" Rouet stretched out his hand and said to Cavaignac.
"You..." Cavaignac pointed his halberd at Jérôme. Bonaparte turned and left.
Fleury, who was carrying a complete set of tea sets, watched Cavaignac leave and looked at Jérôme Bonaparte: "Your Highness, this..."
"Put it here!" Jerome Bonaparte knocked on the wooden table made of nanmu and said to Fleury.
"Hmm!" Fleury placed the tea set on the wooden table.
Jérôme Bonaparte brewed a pot of good tea and drank it by himself, with a contemptuous smile on his face: "I almost ruined this pot of tea!"
…
On September 4th, more than ten days had passed since Cavaignac's visit.
In these more than ten days, Jerome Bonaparte won consecutive victories, and votes from the five French provinces once again voted for him. At the same time, under the call of Victor Hugo, many citizens of the Seine Province also voted for him.
It was given to Jérôme Bonaparte. Jérôme Bonaparte's votes broke through the 140,000 mark in one fell swoop, leaving Victor Hugo, who was originally in second place, firmly behind. The National Assembly's
The door was open to Jérôme Bonaparte, who, as a member of the Seine department, had free access to the National Assembly.
While all the Bonapartists were happy about Jérôme Bonaparte's impressive achievements, a proposal came again from the National Assembly that made all the Bonapartists gnash their teeth.
For a moment, the entire temporary conference hall was filled with the smell of gunpowder, and the dark clouds outside the window not only enveloped Paris, but also enveloped the hearts of all Bonapartists. The faces of every Bonapartist revealed the
There was a murderous aura, like a group of gangsters gathering together.
"That bastard Cavaignac! How dare he!" Jérôme Bonaparte's diehard Letty yelled: "He doesn't even look in the mirror to see what kind of virtue he is!"
Eugène Rouet did not choose to curse like Letty, but lowered his head in thought.
It turns out that in this morning's National Assembly meeting, Cavaignac made a commonplace statement in the National Assembly, demanding that the voter threshold be limited and that some voters who have lost their national integrity should not be allowed to vote.
The already uncontroversial topic was brought up again by Cavaignac. However, this time the voting result was beyond Jérôme Bonaparte's expectations. The National Assembly rejected the proposal by a vote of 350 to 400.
.
Although the National Assembly still rejected the proposal with a majority, the 300 extra votes in favor behind the proposal were like a sword of Damocles hanging over Jerome Bonaparte's head, capable of mobilizing more than 300 people.
Apart from the Party of Order, no other party could be found that the MPs voted for at the same time.
[In the National Assembly, a proposal can be passed only if more than two-thirds of the votes pass it.]
"The most important thing is what is going on with the Party of Order?" Jérôme Bonaparte's expression also became serious.
If Cavaignac keeps insisting that voters are not qualified, it will be difficult to ensure that those who are not determined will vote for Cavaignac.
"Your Highness, I also heard news that Cavaignac seems to be planning something with Changarnier?" Fleury said to Jérôme Bonaparte cautiously.
"Where did the news come from?" Jerome Bonaparte turned his eyes to Fleury and asked.
"General Opple!" Fleury responded decisively: "General Opple told me that Cavaignac is replacing a group of soldiers with improper ideological and behavioral behavior in Paris and replacing them with those guys from Africa!"
"Troubled times!" Jérôme Bonaparte muttered to himself, pressing his temples.
Although Cavaignac in the original history did not choose to take the coup route, it is also not ruled out that he would jump over the wall in a hurry.
It would be even more interesting to see an Orleanist general in Changarnier mixed with an ultra-republican consul.
"Your Highness, do you think the Party of Order deliberately used Cavaignac as a spearman?" Eugène Rouet raised his head and said to Jérôme Bonaparte.
"Then what is their purpose?" Jérôme Bonaparte said half-jokingly and half-seriously: "Their purpose can't be me!"
"It's very possible!" Eugène Rouet tried to connect everything: "Your Highness, do you still remember what happened in Lyon?"
"You mean Marshal Biro?" Jérôme Bonaparte responded again.
"Yes!" Eugène Rouet nodded in response: "Your Highness, you have not noticed that your prestige in Paris is even higher! If I were them, I would definitely give you a warning! Cavaignac's proposal is nothing more than
It is they who express their attitude through the National Assembly, so..."
