Chapter 295 Veteran Frost’s real battle is about to begin
Napoleon was enthusiastically preaching to Josephine about General Frost's vision. Suddenly La Salle ran to the terrace and shouted to him: "Hey, come and see, your sister and Andy are dancing solo, or tango!"
Napoleon's attention was immediately distracted by this incident: "What? My sister is not very good at dancing!"
LaSalle: "Come on, now that this song is over, you will be the second most popular person in Paris, and I won't be able to get you all the invitations to the tea party."
Napoleon was about to leave immediately, but then suddenly remembered that it would not be good to leave Josephine alone like this, so he turned to Josephine and said, "Are you coming too?"
Josephine smiled and said: "Of course."
Then she took Napoleon's arm very naturally.
La Salle showed a "Wow" expression, looked Josephine up and down, and then looked at Napoleon with complicated eyes, which probably meant "Why do you like the old man?"
Napoleon's attention was entirely focused on Frost dancing with his sister, and he didn't understand the meaning of his friend's hurtful eyes at all. He dragged Josephine into the ballroom.
The band was playing a fairly typical tango dance, and Frost was twirling on the dance floor with Paulina in his arms.
La Salle: "To be honest, I can dance just fine. After all, as long as there is passion in tango, everything else can be ignored."
Napoleon's attention was on Pauline's face: "Oh my God, my sister must be so embarrassed. She is not good at such scenes."
In fact, everyone can see that Paulina's face must be so hot now that she can fry an egg.
Napoleon was worried at first, but after watching it for a while he smiled and said: "It seems that Polina is quite enjoying it, so don't worry too much about him."
Josephine: "You really love your sister very much, Mr. Bonaparte."
"Of course, my father died young and left when she was five years old. My brother actually also plays the role of a father. What father doesn't want his daughter to be well?" Napoleon responded quite proudly, "
Fortunately, Polina grew up well and became beautiful and capable."
La Salle hurriedly complained: "It's a pity that her children will have to find a wet nurse in the future."
Napoleon pursed his lips: "Nothing is perfect in this world, and there is nothing we can do about it."
At this time, the tango dance music came to an end. The two people who were dancing passionately stopped after the last note and looked at each other.
Just when everyone thought they were about to kiss, Polina squatted down and hugged her JIO.
Frost looked apologetic: "I told you I would step on your feet, but you didn't believe me. That's why I don't dance. I'm really not good at dancing."
Then Frost shook his head and looked around: "So girls, for the sake of your feet, don't even think about dancing with me."
Everyone looked at each other, and then I don't know which genius was the first to think that General Frost was telling a joke, so they burst out laughing.
This ignited everyone's laughter, and everyone was laughing.

An Ning scratched his head. He was not telling a joke just now, he was just stating the facts.
But everyone seemed to regard this as humor, thinking that "His Excellency General Frost" was using his own humor to resolve the current embarrassment.
Forget it, it doesn't matter.
An Ning stretched out her hand to Polina: "Can you stand up?"
"Of course, no problem." Polina stubbornly stood up on her own, and then held An Ning's hand.
The little temper shown by Polina actually shows her appetite for peace.
He was about to lead Polina to the seat when he suddenly saw a rare group on the edge of the dance floor.
Josephine Beauharnais holding Napoleon's hand!
An Ning was immediately shocked. He originally thought that Napoleon in this time and space would never get involved with Josephine.
result……
At this moment, An Ning suddenly felt a kind of piercing terror.
He realized that his real enemy might be the terrifying existence called historical inertia.
At the beginning of the Legal Revolution, An Ning took the initiative to do a lot of things to maintain the original direction of history in order to make it easier for him to control the flow of history.
For example, he took the initiative to operate the cannon when the attack on the Bastille was blocked. For example, he stood up for Mirabeau when he did not stand up and shouted out the famous saying, and took the famous saying as his own.
Later, although An Ning no longer forced himself to push history towards its original direction, he did not care much about whether history changed.
Then now, An Ning's desire has become to write his own, new history, so he must prevent history from following its original direction.
Because in the original direction, the true revolutionaries of the Jacobins would kill each other, and in the end, speculators like Barras would seize the republic.
Now An Ning wants to completely erase this history and rewrite it into the "good ending" in his imagination.
This simple wish had occurred countless times before An Ning traveled through it.
For example, he once hoped that Compaoré would not be corrupted and continue to stand with Sankara.
He once hoped that Pinochet, facing the temptation of the CIA, would shout "uphold the constitution" like the loyal general who was assassinated before.
But now, history uses a cold voice to say to An Ning: "Don't even think about it."
Josephine would still mess with Napoleon, just like Paul Barras would still stir up trouble between Robespierre and Danton.
At this moment, An Ning looked at Josephine and suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis. An idea was born in his mind: before Robespierre and Danton break up, he must first kill speculators like Paul Barras.
guest.
The scene of playing "Crusader Kings 2" immediately came to mind, and An Ning instantly thought of countless assassination methods, including but not limited to exploding shit, collapsing balconies, putting snakes into Barras' bed, etc.
But all of this has a disadvantage. Once the inside story is leaked, it will have a serious impact on Andy Frost's Wei Guangzheng image.
After thinking about it, An Ning felt that it was better to just use the most popular method now: to accuse the other party and then send the other party to the guillotine through the court.
An Ning thought about this while pulling Polina back to her seat.
That's right, you can't just sit back and wait for death.
Even if my opponent is a behemoth called history, I will fight until the last moment.
It's not going to make me surrender - thought battle-hardened veteran Andy Frost.

While An Ning was shocked by history at the ball, in a club in London, little Pitt, who was about to be elected as the next prime minister, was also making an impassioned speech.
“Everyone, because we once had the tradition of the Glorious Revolution, many people in the UK have sympathy and understanding for what is happening in France.
"But this is not right!
"Although we launched the Glorious Revolution, in the end we welcomed a new king as the head of Great Britain and the head of the Anglican Church.
"The French actually want to subvert thousands of years of aristocratic political tradition and subvert the European order! Such an deviant thing must not be allowed!
“European history and tradition are unquestionable facts, just like two plus two equals four, just like the leaves are green in the summer!
"Great Britain should no longer be content with just provoking Europe against France, the British Army and Royal Navy are ready!
"Light the fire to prove that two plus two equals four!
"We will prove with our swords that summer leaves are green!
"We're ready!"
Little Pete's speech received warm applause.
One person, however, remained unmoved: Arthur Wellesley was racking his brains over a sonnet to his inner goddess, and was not listening to the speech of the future prime minister.
