"Hugo? What is he doing here?"

Jerome Bonaparte, who was preparing for the next move, had a sullen face, not to mention how unhappy he was.

"Your Majesty, I don't know either!" Pessini said helplessly: "However, judging from Mr. Victor Hugo's expression, he should be looking for you in a hurry!"

"What trouble!" Jerome Bonaparte complained.

For this literati who is famous throughout Paris, it is not okay to beat him or scold him, he has to let him.

"Would you like to tell Mr. Hugo, Your Majesty, that you are having an important meeting?" Pessini proposed a solution.

Jerome Bonaparte glanced at the incomparably huge Marquise of Allais sitting on his lap, and subconsciously responded: "Yeah! It's really heavy!"

Afterwards, Jerome Bonaparte, who realized that he had said something wrong, hurriedly added: "Forget it! Let Mr. Victor Hugo go upstairs!"

"Yes!" After Pessini responded, he closed the door again and left.

"Ma'am, it seems that I can't have an in-depth exchange with you!" Jerome Bonaparte still expressed regret in a provocative tone.

"Your Majesty, I am waiting for your summons at any time!" Marquise Allais flirted with her golden curls and threw a charming look at Jerome Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte let go of the arm that was encircling the Marquise of Allais.

The arrival of Victor Hugo means the departure of the Marquise Allais.

Just as the Marquise of Allais was about to leave the living room, she heard Jerome Bonaparte behind her say: "Madame, please let your husband pay attention to the bonds of the Public Works Department that will be issued in the near future. Believe me, it will be a solid profit. A no-compromise deal!"

"Bullying" people's wives for so long, they always want to give them some sweetness.

If you want to live well in Paris, unless you have a little green on your head.

Of course, this rule does not apply to Jerome Bonaparte himself.

Because he's about to be the one who sets the rules of the entire Paris game.

Marquise Allais, who understood Jerome Bonaparte's subtext, turned around and bowed slightly to Jerome Bonaparte and said, "I will tell my husband!"

Under the leadership of the attendants, the Marquise of Allais left the Elysee Palace through the back door.

Not long after, the door of the guest room opened again, and Persini and Victor Hugo entered.

Jerome Bonaparte hurriedly got up to meet the great writer of the 19th century: "Mr. Hugo, welcome to the Elysee Palace!"

Jerome Bonaparte stretched out his hand to hold Victor Hugo's hand, Victor Hugo hurriedly responded, "Mr. President!"

"Mr. Hugo, please don't call me that! I still hope you can call me by my name, or call me Prince!" Jerome Bonaparte tried to pull in Victor Hugo's relationship.

"His Excellency the Prince!" In the face of Jerome Bonaparte, who was very kind, Victor Hugo had no choice but to choose the title "Prince".

"Um!"

Under the guidance of Jerome Bonaparte, Victor Hugo sat in the seat of the Marquise of Allais.

Jerome Bonaparte, who was sitting back in his seat, asked Victor Hugo, "Mr. Hugo, I don't know why you came to see me today?"

Victor Hugo immediately stated that he was entrusted by the Republicans and wanted to persuade Jerome Bonaparte to abandon the plan of the military parade.

"Your Majesty, now only you can stop them!" Victor Hugo said sincerely to Jerome Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte stood up from behind Victor Hugo pretending to be frustrated, and then sighed: "Mr. Hugo, you have a high opinion of me, I must respect the opinions of the majority!"

"So are the republicans!" Victor Hugo tried to get Jerome Bonaparte to "change his mind".

"Mr. Hugo, you don't understand!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head and said, "They control the cabinet and the army! I'm just a nominal president! The decision of the military parade is not mine. And with them!"

Jerome Bonaparte tried to weaken the power of his own president, so that the party of order would become the enemy of the republic.

"But..." Victor Hugo still tried to argue.

"Mr. Hugo, I have to be on their side to ensure that they won't stage a coup! If they stage a coup, the republic will be finished!" Jerome Bonaparte continued to bluster.

"As long as you don't agree, there's nothing they can do!" Victor Hugo continued to persuade.

"No... No way!" The "cowardly" Jerome Bonaparte responded.

No matter how Victor Hugo persuaded, Jerome Bonaparte was just bitten to death and unwilling to fight against the Party of Order.

Victor Hugo could only give up.

Before leaving, Victor Hugo once again asked Jerome Bonaparte to think about it.

The "cowardly" Jerome Bonaparte once again chose to support the Party of Order after an "ideological struggle".

Afterwards, Victor Hugo left the Elysee Palace with a feeling of loss.

At Lamartine's house, Victor Hugo told all the Republicans about the situation at the Elysee Palace.

"We missed Mr. President!" Cavaignac said in a depressed mood: "I thought the emperor's nephew should be a hero! I didn't expect ~www.novelhall.com~ to be a coward!"

Compared with Cavaignac, who wrote disgust on his face, Bastide obviously has the quality of being a diplomat who does not panic, and he carefully analyzes the situation of both the enemy and us: "We can only show the enemy's weakness now, and I hope they will not. Get on us!"

"It's not a wise choice to count on them!" Lamartine responded.

"Everyone, what else can we do now!" Bastide glanced at everyone present with stern eyes, and he said loudly: "We have lost the government, the army, and now we can't do anything!"

"We still have the Rangers!" Lamartine wanted to struggle.

"Mr. Lamartine, do you want the Rangers to be the second victim?" Bastide responded coldly, "All we can do now is wait!"

"Then how long will it take!"

"Wait until they are hated by all of France!"

On the afternoon of January 27, after a heated discussion, the Republicans, who understood their situation, gave up their resistance completely, unaware that their non-resistance policy would sweep them out of parliament.

On the night of January 28, with the signing of the order of the Minister of War Liulier's military parade, Changarnier, the commander of the Paris National Guard and the commander of the regular army, quickly assembled his team.

Among them, there are 45,000 people in the National Guard of Paris, about 20,000 in the capital regiment stationed in Paris, and 30,000 in the suburban regiment.

After the troops of the Capital Corps were quickly assembled, they were stationed in the area centered on the Paris municipal government. The Bourbon Palace was once again "protected", and the soldiers of the two regiments were stationed near the Bourbon Palace again.
