Emile Olivier responded to Jérôme Bonaparte in a sonorous tone.
Subsequently, Jerome Bonaparte ordered Basilio to call Lucien Murat, the secretary-general, to the study, and Basilio followed the order and left.
After a while, Lucien Murat appeared in Jerome Bonaparte's office. He first glanced at Emile Olivier, and then asked respectfully: "Your Majesty, what do you want from me?"
Order!"
"Lucien, the news organization under your secretary's office is still short of a manager! I have found a helper for you!" Jérôme Bonaparte pointed at Emile Olivier and spoke in a consultative tone.
Said, "This Mr. Emile Olivier, who previously held an important position in the Republican Party, has now left the ranks of the Republican Party.
I want him to go to the secretary’s office as the news director, and be responsible for managing domestic and foreign news full-time! What do you think?”
Lucien Murat looked Emile Olivier up and down, and then immediately realized that Emile Olivier was the emperor's eyes placed in the secretary's room.
Although today's news organizations do not have a formal chief, they do have someone who temporarily acts in this position.
This man was also Lucien Murat's confidant.
If Emile Olivier really succeeds in parachuting, some people will definitely be dissatisfied with him.
They will think that he, Lucien Murat, did not fight for them in front of the emperor,
In that case, the entire secretary office might not be as monolithic as before.
Jérôme Bonaparte's move was completely to undermine Lucien Murat's prestige in the secretary's office.
But if he refused, he would also be dissatisfied by Jérôme Bonaparte.
After weighing it repeatedly for a moment, Lucien Murat made his choice. He responded to Jérôme Bonaparte with a smile: "Your Majesty, of course I welcome Mr. Emile Olivier to help.
Let me handle the secretary's office issues together!"
"That's good!" Jerome Bonaparte also smiled and nodded to Lucien Murat, and then said "frankly", "Also, I will send Emile Olivier
I am not assigning you to the secretary's office because I want to share your rights!
The reason why I chose Emile Olivier to be in charge of propaganda and speech control is because when he was in the Republican Party, there were few talents within the Republican Party who could guide public opinion!
Arranging him in your secretary's office can be regarded as a professional counterpart!
So you don’t have to have any psychological burden. If Olivier does something bad, you can criticize and educate him at any time!"
"Your Majesty, I understand!
"Lucien Murat nodded and said to Jerome Bonaparte.
Immediately afterwards, Lucien Murat came to Emile Olivier, smiled, stretched out his hand and said to Emile Olivier pretending to be kind, "Welcome to the secretary's office! Mr. Olivier!"
"It's an honor to work with you! Your Highness Lucien!" Emile Olivier responded in the same humble manner.
After the two exchanged a brief handshake, Jérôme Bonaparte spoke to Lucien Murat again, "Lucien, you will take Olivier to visit the secretary's office in a moment!"
Let him know the work of the secretary's office and the structure of the secretary's office!"
"Yes!" Lucien Murat responded briefly but firmly.
"Olivier, during this period of following Lucien! You have to read more and learn more. Only in this way can you make real progress!" Jérôme Bonaparte also told Emile Olivier.
Yeah one sentence.
He was hinting to Emile Olivier to get to know the secretary's office as soon as possible, so that he could quickly take over the secretary's office after Jerome Bonaparte dismissed Lucien Murat.
After all, Emile Olivier's time is running out.
"Understood!" Emile Olivier obviously understood what Jérôme Bonaparte meant, and he responded immediately.
Immediately afterwards, Emile Olivier left Jérôme Bonaparte's study together with Lucien Murat.
Jerome Bonaparte turned to Basilio and asked, "Guess when the two of them will conflict!"
"Your Majesty, I can't guess!" Basilio shook his head and said honestly! One sentence.
"I guess it won't be long before they may face a conflict!" Jérôme Bonaparte touched his chin and said again, "But as long as they don't completely break up, that's fine!
Let them do the rest!"
…
In the next ten days or so, while Emile Olivier accepted all the work of the secretarial office's news organization step by step, he also began to win over his subordinates and make them work for him.
Alfred Darimon also founded the New Republican Party during this time, and sent out invitations to the republicans with great fanfare the day before its establishment.
When Jules Favre and others received this news, their faces became very ugly.
Alfred Darimon's move was a naked humiliation to them.
What's worse is that Alfred's move can easily cause turmoil within the republican faction again.
Therefore, under the order of Jules Favre, all republican members condemned Alfred Dalimon's behavior of splitting the republicans. They called Alfred Dalimon's party founding this time
This action completely harms the Republic's reputation in the hearts of the people.
Alfred Dalimon was naturally not someone who was willing to be scolded, so he quickly sent people to fight back against the Republicans.
They said that the old republicans had decadent ideas and were unable to recognize the changes of the times.
When the quarrel between the old and new republicans in the newspapers intensified, Alfred Darimon exposed the news of Jules Favre's suppression of Emile Olivier.
As soon as this news came out, many people who originally supported Jules Favre also chose not to support unconditionally.
There are also some people who choose to leave with Emile Olivier.
The power of the old republicans began to decline, while the power of the new republicans began to rise.
The whole process was witnessed by Jérôme Bonaparte of the Tuileries Palace.
When the time came on February 1st, Mathilde's arrival broke the tranquility of the Tuileries Palace.
In the afternoon of this day, Mathilde came to the Tuileries Palace to chat with Queen Augusta as usual.
The two of them were chatting, and then they talked about the assassination.
"Alas! You two are really careless!" Mathilde sighed and responded to Queen Augusta in a reproachful tone, "Fortunately, the assassin missed it. What if..."
At this point, Mathilde hesitated to speak. She understood that some words just need to be stopped.
"Even if Jérôme Bonaparte and I do encounter misfortune, you will still be there!" Queen Augusta responded to Princess Mathilde affectionately.
"We?" Princess Mathilde said to Queen Augusta with a wry smile, "I don't have the ability to protect the empire built by Jérôme, let alone my father!
Instead of counting on us, it is better to formulate a system in advance!
If something really happens, there are ways to deal with it!"
After listening to Princess Mathilde's words, Queen Augusta thought carefully for a moment, then nodded and said, "You are right! We should indeed designate an effective system to ensure that Frederick can go smoothly.
Inherit the throne!
Sister, who do you think can take on this important task!"
Princess Mathilde shook her head and said to Queen Augusta, "You'd better discuss this issue with Jerome!
I think he should know better than me who is trustworthy!"
"That's right!" Queen Augusta replied to Princess Mathilde.
After the two continued chatting for a long time, Princess Mathilde bid farewell to Queen Augusta, who personally sent Princess Mathilde out of the Tuileries Palace.
Augusta watched Princess Mathilde's carriage drift away and turned around to go to the study where Jerome Bonaparte was.
Queen Augusta arrived at the door of the study and opened the door. At this moment, Jerome Bonaparte was putting down the pen in his hand and stretching.
Looking at Augusta entering the study, Jerome Bonaparte asked, "Why are you here?"
"What! Can't I come?" Queen Augusta asked Jérôme Bonaparte.
"Of course!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Queen Augusta.
However, Jérôme Bonaparte, who had been married for many years, certainly knew that when Augusta entered the study at this time, he must have something to discuss with him.
Otherwise, Augusta National would not come at this time.
"How about we go sit on the sofa for a while!" Queen Augusta asked Jerome Bonaparte.
"Of course!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded, got up and went to the sofa.
After Jerome Bonaparte and Augusta sat on the sofa, Augusta rested his head on Jerome Bonaparte's shoulder and said worriedly, "Jerome, you have passed by."
After the last incident, I was really worried that the two of us would pass away prematurely before Frederick reached adulthood!"
"Don't worry! This kind of thing will never happen again!" Jerome Bonaparte hugged Augusta with one arm and said softly.
"Who can guarantee that this will not happen again!" Augusta retorted to Jerome Bonaparte, "We cannot place our hopes on the absence of assassins!"
"Then what do you want to do?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked Augusta.
"Your Majesty, I think our top priority is to design a system that can assist Frederick!" Augusta said to Jerome Bonaparte with a serious expression.
"Isn't this a bit of a fuss?" Jérôme Bonaparte said to Queen Augusta.
"Your Majesty, you are not making a fuss out of a molehill!" Queen Augusta replied to Jérôme Bonaparte firmly, "We must nip it in the bud!"
"In this case, we can only prepare a regency committee!
Jérôme Bonaparte replied to Queen Augusta, "This regency council will not be activated until both of us are killed!"
As for the selection..."
In Jérôme Bonaparte's mind, the candidates in his mind emerged one after another.
After a few seconds, Jérôme Bonaparte spoke to Queen Augusta and said, "Let us tentatively select Nières, Rouet, Baros and Pio as candidates for the regency committee!"
One army, two government officials and a speaker of parliament, this lineup should be enough!"
