Make France Great Again

"What! It's just that the positions have been reversed! That guy Napoleon likes to do these unsavory little tricks!"

As soon as the news of the Minister of the Interior came out from the Matignon Palace, Rue Poitier immediately received the news. The ultra-Orthodox Duke of Broglie criticized Jérôme Bonaparte's little actions, with a look in his eyes. Condescending contempt.

"You can't say that!" Compared to the arrogant Duke of Broi, Thiers looked extra cautious. He glanced at the space next to him with his peripheral vision and mocked in a mocking tone: "Aren't there some of us? I can’t sit still anymore and fall to the other side!”

"Are you talking about Odilon Barrow?" Duke Broy immediately thought of Odilon Barrow, the left-wing leader of the royalist faction. He mocked angrily: "Why do we have groups like Vic appearing one after another in our camp?" What a romantic like Victor Hugo! Don’t they know that romantic ideas will kill them?”

"Mr. Duke, what they may care about is not romance!" Thiers poured himself a cup of coffee unhurriedly, "but real things!"

"What else do they want? Aren't the seats on the Standing Committee enough to satisfy their appetite?" Duke Broglie seemed to be questioning Thiers.

"Maybe!" Thiers said vaguely.

"I actually associate with a group of idiots! It's really shameful!" Duke Broy also poured himself a cup of coffee and drank it in one gulp.

"No!" Thiers shrugged and retorted helplessly: "Our party does not have too many stupid people, but there are too many smart people! They are smart enough to calculate every benefit carefully!"

"Don't they understand that even if they defect to Napoleon, they may not get any benefits?" Duke Broglie's eyes widened. He seemed to not understand the rules of Paris politics after having left Paris politics for decades.

"Mr. Duke, they will only follow the winner!" Thiers said calmly, taking a sip of coffee to moisten his throat.

"Victor? Mr. Thiers, we have not failed yet!" Duke Broglie couldn't help but raise his voice.

"Your Majesty the Duke! To be honest, we are about to fail!" Thiers said with a smile: "Jerome Bonaparte may launch a coup at any time! What will we do by then?"

"Coup?" Duke Broi frowned and said to himself, then turned his gaze to Thiers: "Mr. Thiers, you should have a way to deal with it!"

"No!" Thiers spread his hands and said sincerely: "We don't have a plan to solve it! No, it should be said that we had a plan to solve it, but it was messed up by some smart people in our party."

The internal strife of the Party of Order gave Jérôme Bonaparte the opportunity to seize power and act without the Party of Order.

So what if Thiers could set up a standing committee? This so-called committee was just a paper tiger to intimidate Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Then we can only wait for them to come and send us to prison?" Duke Broy looked a little depressed. He had had enough of "country food" and didn't want to return to the countryside so soon.

"It's all up to you! Mr. Duke!" Thiers changed the subject and said to the Duke of Broglie.

"Us?" Duke Broy was stunned for a few seconds, his eyes full of confusion.

"It is precisely because there are too many smart people in our party that we have to create a hope for them! A hope that we can win!" Thiers spoke faster: "If the monarch you are loyal to can be the same as the monarch I am loyal to, If the monarch sincerely cooperates, then we can completely reverse the defeat."

What Thiers was talking about was the complete merger of the Orthodox and Orléans factions that Odilon Barrot had been pursuing. As long as the two successors to the throne could put aside their past grievances and stop fighting among themselves, the internally divided Party of Order would inevitably have fewer people standing on the fence. faction, the united republican faction and the power of Changarnier, he was confident that he would completely seize power from Jérôme Bonaparte.

According to the constitution of the Second Republic, the Speaker of the Legislative Assembly also had the power to dispatch soldiers. Thiers believed that as long as he could use this power well, he would be able to win.

"You should understand that the monarch I am loyal to has lived in the Austrian Empire all year round, so he is inevitably infected with some old ideas, and it is not easy to do his job." After the Duke of Broglie hesitated for a moment, he said He explained with a wry smile.

"I can wait for Mr. Duke, but we don't have much time!" Thiers seemed to have thought of something, and quickly added: "Please don't let your monarch make some inappropriate remarks again. This will It’s causing us a lot of trouble!”

The so-called "inappropriate remarks" were the statement made by Count Chambord last year, which directly led to great chaos within the Party of Order.

The clerical leaders Fallo and Montalembert surrendered directly to the enemy.

Afterwards, Thiers spent a lot of effort to bring the clergy back. He didn't want to experience something similar again.

"I'll do my best!" Duke Broy could only say that he would do his best.

His influence on the Count of Chambord, who has been away from the monarch for many years, is far greater than that of the Duke of Richelieu and others. However, the thinking of this generation of Duke Richelieu is not as good as that of his father.

It's almost like a man crawling out of an 18th century grave to serve a monarch.

How could Count Chambord do good politics if he was surrounded by such a group of insects?

"Mr. Thiers, what should we do now?" Duke Broglie asked Thiers.

"Test!" Thiers responded immediately.

"Testing?" Duke Broy said in a doubtful tone.

"That's right! We want to test Jérôme Bonaparte's ability to control the army!" Thiers explained to the Duke of Broglie.

"Then how should we test it?" Duke Broy asked curiously.

"I will ask the Ministry of War in the Legislative Assembly to send more troops directly under the parliament!" Thiers said to the Duke of Broglie.

"Jerome Bonaparte will most likely not agree!" Duke Broglie said to Thiers.

"He will indeed not agree!" Thiers showed a sly smile: "But don't we still have General Changarnier, he is the garrison commander of the Seine Province!"

"Thiers, you are playing with fire!" The Duke of Broglie looked at Thiers with horrifying eyes: "If you are not careful, the whole of Paris may fall into civil strife!"

"Don't worry! It's just a test!" Thiers said confidently: "If things really get out of hand, we will stop immediately! Our president probably doesn't want to see the whole of Paris in ruins. !”

"That couldn't be better!" Duke Broy smiled again, and he nodded in agreement with Thiers' so-called plan.

Of course, Thiers did not consider what would happen to General Changarnier who was caught in the middle. In his heart, Changarnier was also a discardable chess piece.

While Thiers and others were planning Jerome Bonaparte, Jerome Bonaparte was also planning the division within the Party of Order.

Through the promotion and demotion of Fernand Barrot, Jérôme Bonaparte gained favor from Odilon Barrot and others.

Although these good feelings are not enough to make Odilon Barrow join them, at least they do not insist on opposing it.

As long as there are more fence-sitters within the Party of Order, it will be easier for Jérôme Bonaparte to defeat these members of the Party of Order.

However, these are just the seeds that Jérôme Bonaparte planted in advance.

The real split of the Party of Order will have to wait until the complete death of King Louis Philippe of Orleans.

The death of Louis Philippe represented the end of the hatred between Bourbon and Orleans and was an opportunity for the integration of the two parties, but it was also an opportunity for the two parties to completely split.

Jérôme Bonaparte believed that the Count of Chambord would become a sharp knife that would tear apart the cooperation between the Orthodox and Orleans factions. As long as the Count of Chambord expressed clear opposition, the so-called merger would be an empty talk.

The Orthodox and some Orleans factions who were betrayed one after another by the monarchs they were loyal to were bound to be disheartened. As long as they extended an olive branch, they would not worry about their unwillingness to join their side.

Now Jerome Bonaparte had to test out the overall attitude of the Party of Order camp towards him, so Jerome Bonaparte called Alexander Valewski.

"Cousin, I hope you can take me to the Legislative Assembly to file a lawsuit with the Legislative Assembly, asking them to fulfill their promise to increase my annual salary to 900,000 francs, and at the same time pay me 2.16 million francs for communication! This is what Tiye originally said Mr. Er promised me!" Jérôme Bonaparte said to Valewski plausibly.

The corner of Walewski's mouth twitched slightly. The president who extorted tens of millions of francs from bankers would actually care about a meager "salary".

Now that the president has made his request, all Valewskisun can do is make it happen.

"Yes!" Valewski responded.

Jérôme Bonaparte will adjust his salary and ask questions to estimate how many enemies he has in the Legislative Assembly.

On June 30, Member of the Legislative Assembly Valewski made a rare speech on stage.

Valewski, in his voice resembling that of the Emperor Napoleon, raised the issue of the presidential salary to the Legislative Assembly. Find Shuyuanwww． zhaoshuyuan.com

The "social democratic" faction in the Legislative Assembly remains as opposed to advancing the presidential salary package as ever, and the Party of Order side is also in a state of anxiety.

Some members of the Party of Order fiercely opposed it, while others also believed that the president's proposal was understandable and that the Elysée Palace did need a certain amount of funds.

Finally, at the suggestion of an Elysée Palace member, Parliament proposed to pay the president an annual salary of 1.2 million francs (to make up for the actual part in 1849 and the annual salary in 1850) and a communication fee of 2 million francs.

Since the proposal is not based on the Constitution, it does not need to follow the two-thirds consent criterion. It only requires the approval of an overwhelming majority. The Legislative Assembly agreed with Walewski by a slim margin of 10 votes. application.
