An Ning raised her hand directly: "This way! Maximilian, this way!"
Robespierre looked over immediately and smiled slightly.
This is the serious Robespierre. He showed this smile, which was equivalent to laughing.
He kept this smile and came to An Ning and the others. Danton went up and patted him on the shoulder and asked: "When I saw you on the list of representatives, I was wondering when you would come to Paris."
An Ning: "It's different for me. When I saw you on the representative list, I was wondering if you had changed your beloved green coat."
Robespierre said seriously: "Although my economic situation has improved a bit recently, it is not yet to the point where I can be extravagant and wasteful..."
Danton: "Maximilian, Andy, this is being humorous. You are the same, Andy. Maximilian will definitely not respond to your humor."
Robespierre was a little surprised: "Are you being humorous? Well, I don't quite understand this. I thought you were talking about my green coat in a matter-of-fact way. So, how is the situation in Paris now?"
An Ning: "The current situation in Paris can be summarized as follows: Long live the third estate!"
Robespierre hesitated for a moment, then asked Danton: "Is this also humorous?"
Danton: "No, this is a fact. Not long ago, the city authorities whipped several Parisian citizens in Place Louis XV. So they shouted "Long live the Third Estate" while being whipped. Now Paris is already an ignited volcano.
Everyone in the Third Estate knows what that pamphlet says: The Third Estate is everything!”
Robespierre nodded: "Very good, this way we will get thorough support from public opinion. What are we discussing now?"
An Ning picked up the memorandum on the table and handed it to Robespierre: "Look, we are discussing the general petition of the third estate, which will be submitted to the king tomorrow."
Robespierre said loudly: "Is there any need to discuss it? Our goal is of course to formulate a constitution, abolish all feudal privileges, and realize equality for everyone! I have been helping ordinary people in lawsuits over the years, and I have witnessed too much oppression.
, the era of nobles riding on the head of the third estate has come to an end!"
An Ning: "As expected of Maximilian, you said most of the contents of the general petition we have put forward in one go."
Danton: "That's what we mentioned. Many big nobles also supported us. The Marquis of Lafayette and the Duke of Tolestel also mentioned this at the second-level meeting, but it was ignored by those backward and dirty little people.
The nobles refused."
While speaking, Robespierre was reading the memo intently, and suddenly he shouted: "Wait a minute! What's going on with this article? It requires voting by head count? So doesn't the current three-level parliament vote by head count?"
"Yes, no. Everything is based on the three-level parliament 175 years ago, one level, one vote." An Ning shrugged, "Why, you thought..."
"I thought it must be one person, one vote! Because isn't this the case in recent occasions where voting is mentioned? How can it be so backward? This system must be reformed, and heads must be counted! Otherwise, there will be no way to start, and nobles and priests will still ride
On the head of the third estate."
An Ning: "I think this may be the most important topic at the beginning of the three-level meeting."
Robespierre looked a little sullen: "Absurd! We actually have to start from such a basic place. Are we really the home of Enlightenment thought?"
Dandong: "Hello, as far as I know, yes."
…
That night, An Ning chatted a lot with Robespierre, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. Marat, who had finished writing today's battle message, also joined the conversation and started to criticize the aristocracy.
That night, I had a good sleep peacefully.
The next day, the general petition of the third estate was finally submitted to the king.
A few days later, the three-level meeting was finally held again after 175 years.
Early that morning, An Ning rushed to the Palace of Versailles - the main venue of the three-level parliament was in this luxurious palace.
An Ning remembered that before she traveled through time, she had read an article on a certain public account, saying that the Palace of Versailles was full of human excrement and smelled terrible.
In fact, if you think about it with logic, you will know that this is absolutely impossible: Will your king live in a pile of shit? Even if there is no sound sewer system, you can still use manpower to clean it. There must be a smell somewhere.
He immediately sent his servants to dig three feet into the ground to find the pile of rice fields and dispose of them.
Anyway, the Palace of Versailles that An Ning saw was in line with a latecomer's imagination of the life of the powerful class. Everywhere in this palace was quiet, unique, comfortable and pleasant.
But today, the Palace of Versailles must be described as crowded.
A thousand delegates to the Estates-General had gathered here early in the morning, and there were also a large number of sans-culottes who came from Paris to watch.
Yes, you can watch the three-level meeting. When the meeting is held, there will be spectator seats like stands next to it, and ordinary people can stand there and watch the representatives discuss.
An Ning didn't know which genius came up with this idea of allowing onlookers to watch.
An Ning observed the people pouring into the Palace of Versailles and found that most of them were well-dressed bourgeois, and the remaining small number were idle streetwalkers.
Real sans-culottes are working hard in Paris right now, trying to buy an increasingly expensive loaf of bread.
An Ning was observing the crowd of onlookers when a solemn voice announced loudly: "The three-level meeting has officially begun. Delegates are invited to enter."
The person who spoke was the chief steward of the Dharma King's palace. He had forgotten what he called An Ning.
Delegates began to line up and enter from the entrance of the main venue, while onlookers poured from the side passages to the stands of the house.
An Ning showed his representative card to the inspecting royal guards, and then followed the flow of people into the venue.
His mood was quite exciting. As a history enthusiast, I couldn't help but be excited.
So much so that he almost forgot that he joined the Level 3 Council just to look familiar and sit on the fence happily.
The hall where the Estates-General was held was magnificent, with portraits of Louis XV and Louis XIV hung on the walls. The "former kings" in the portraits all wore cloaks covered with fleur-de-lis, the symbol of the Bourbon dynasty.
Compared with the majesty of the previous kings, Louis XVI, standing in front of the portrait, looked like a dressed-up toy tin soldier.
The locksmith seemed to be in a bad mood and frowned.
Next to him is the Austrian princess, Queen Mary of France. Today Mary is wearing a white dress, as dazzling as ever.
After seeing this, Dandong teased in An Ning's ear: "Her Majesty the Queen looks very happy. She probably thinks that if taxes can be raised today, she will have money to squander, right?"
An Ning sneered: "She won't get what she wants."
At this time, An Ning suddenly discovered that the guard standing behind the queen looked a bit familiar.
Wait a minute, is that Christina?
Good guy, are you involved in this matter in this way? How can it be such a coincidence? Sure enough, the heroine of my story is you, right?
Christina also saw An Ning and smiled sweetly.
At this time, all the representatives were seated, with Danton on An Ning's left and Robespierre on his right.
From this position, it is very detrimental to his future career.
An Ning thought silently, when the National Assembly convenes, I must sit in the middle of the two factions.
At this time, the ceremonial officer announced loudly: "Everyone! Please be quiet. Next, we invite His Majesty the King of France to give an opening speech for the opening of the Level 3 Conference!"
