Chapter 3286

Chapter 3286

Because of Louis XV's long-term inaction, and because France is still an autocratic monarchy.

The long-term vacuum of monarchical power.

The highly centralized state established by Louis XIV has begun to gradually fall apart.

And there are three classes of people in France.

Symbolizing the divine power of the Lord, the Catholic clergy is the first level. In their view, the French Empire will always be under their control no matter how it changes.

No matter how arrogant Louis XV was, it didn't matter much to them.

And the nobles who seemingly control the power are the second-class people.

Louis XV was their king, but he no longer exercised the power of the king, which did not affect them.

On the contrary, it gave these nobles more room for maneuver.

The nobles began to rely on the power in their hands to amass a large amount of wealth.

As for the lowest common people, the third class of people.

They are all exploited people.

But after experiencing the iron-blooded rule of Louis XIV, the Sun King of French history.

The empire he established was the most centralized country in French history. Under such a rule, the common people at the bottom believed that the king's power was divinely authorized.

Neither divine nor royal authority can be violated.

And Louis XIV is the Sun King, the sun that shines on the earth, and his status is even more noble.

Under such a rule, the common people at the bottom are ignorant and ignorant.

Even if he is exploited, he has no complaints.

Louis XIV was the king who pushed France to the pinnacle of history.

His late rule exposed all the hidden problems under France's glory.

Social class unrest.

The conflicts between the three estates gradually deepened, but perhaps because the prestige left by Louis XIV was too great, the conflicts between the three estates were always hidden and did not come to the forefront.

Louis XV had a chance to change this situation.

Louis XV, the grandson of Louis XIV, was originally given high hopes when he took office.

However, Louis XV's direct actions after taking office aggravated the contradictions in France.

Today, the contradictions in France are in a state where it is possible for them to break out.

But Louis XV himself seemed not to know it.

Still happy.

The winter in Paris was extremely cold this year. After Louis XV finished doing nothing today, it was dark and he was preparing to return to the palace built by his grandfather for his mistress.

Trianon Palace.

This palace has excellent architectural design and houses a large number of precious oil paintings. After its back garden has been renovated, you can still see the beautiful scenery even in the cold winter.

What's more important is that there is his mistress, Madame Pompadour.

Louis XV thought about the happy things he had with Madame Pompadour tonight, and happily boarded the carriage.

But at this moment, the murderous intention hidden in the night was revealed, and a dagger emitting cold light stabbed Louis XV.

The emperor of France.

Louis XV's escort tried their best to intercept the tall and thin man holding a dagger, but they did not expect that the opponent was extremely powerful.

None of them could intercept this sudden attack.

Louis XV was so frightened that he screamed and backed away.

But he didn't hide away.

This dagger, which exuded cold light, suddenly stimulated the right side of Louis XV's forehead and chest.

Dark red gushed out, and Louis XV's face instantly turned pale. He quickly covered the bleeding wound, but it kept coming out from the gaps between his fingers.
