From Pessini's words, Jerome Bonaparte didn't listen to much sincerity, but said it to save his face.

Thinking of this, Jerome Bonaparte's eyes flashed with disappointment.

As an "ordinary man" with the perspective of God, Jerome Bonaparte is destined not to be understood by the whole of France.

Not to mention France, even if he himself said to the King of Prussia that Prussia will completely defeat France in 22 years, I am afraid that Prussia itself will not believe this, they will only think that Jerome Bonaparte is for his uncle. To avenge the revenge of the Waterloo battlefield, forcibly find a reason to attack Prussia.

"Okay! I understand!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded, and he decided to end the unpleasant topic: "Gentlemen, it seems that our journey will end tomorrow, Secretary Persini. long!"

"Yes!" Pesini responded quickly to Jerome Bonaparte.

"While I am returning to Paris, you will be the one who will take my place in the unfinished provinces! We must convey our ideas, our voices, to the whole of France!" said Jerome Bonaparte to Pesigny .

"It is a great honor to be able to do this for Your Majesty. If this is what you wish..." Pessini replied humbly to Jerome Bonaparte.

"By the way, there's one more thing!" Jerome Bonaparte remembered an important matter, and he specifically urged: "When your inspection is complete, please go to Le Clezaud and invite someone!"

"Le Clezaud?" Pessini repeated, thinking about what celebrities in Le Clezaud should pay attention to, he suddenly thought of a "celebrity" who was in Le Clezaud and hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, What did you say..."

Pessini said the name of "celebrity", and Jerome Bonaparte nodded in response: "That's right! Your task is to bring him to Paris and to me! No problem!"

"Of course there is no problem!" Pesini responded decisively, and couldn't help but take that person seriously.

Don't look at him now nestled in the humble town of Le Clezaud, once he is "targeted" by His Excellency the President, he will not be able to achieve success in minutes.

Adjutant Conrobel is a typical example.

"Okay! It's getting late, you guys should rest early!" Jerome Bonaparte waved his hand and ordered the expulsion.

Adjutant Conrobert left Jerome Bonaparte's room with Pessini.

Letters from Paris and Württemberg were also kept by Pessini on the bedroom desk.

Jerome Bonaparte, who was alone in the bedroom, walked slowly to the window lattice, which was carved with exquisite patterns. He raised his head and glanced at the moon, which was covered by two dark clouds.

Immediately, he sat in front of the desk and read the two letters carefully and whispered, "Austria or Prussia?"

...

Early the next morning, the morning mist of early autumn enveloped the entire city of Tours. The misty water vapor condensed on the borders of the window lattices, making people feel a damp and slightly cold coolness.

At the entrance of the temporary residence of the president, the guards stood in a square formation, staring at the hotel door without squinting, waiting for the president to come out.

Finally, when the mist subsided from the city of Tours, Jerome Bonaparte, Pesini and others appeared at the gate of the hotel.

A simple double-bridge carriage crossed the phalanx to the front of the phalanx at the moment Jerome Bonaparte appeared.

Jérôme Bonaparte and Conrobert got into the carriage and headed for the railway station of Tours.

Pessini stopped at the hotel gate to put the finishing touches on.

The time gradually came to around 10 in the morning, and nearly 3 hours had passed since Jerome Bonaparte left.

Mayor de Reina hurried over. He was supposed to enter the hotel and he happened to meet Pesini who was about to leave the hotel.

Mayor de Reina hurriedly ran to Pesini, stooped and asked flatteringly, "Secretary Pesini, is the President still there?"

Pessini glanced at De Renal and said in a flat tone, "Mr. President has returned to Paris!"

"Ah! Your Excellency the President has returned to Paris!" Mayor de Renal changed his face instantly.

The departure of the president does not mean that his gifts cannot be delivered to the parties concerned, so how can he impress the president!

"Mr. Mayor, are you looking for a job?" Pessini asked Mayor de Renal: "The president has entrusted me with all the things he does in Tours before leaving!"

Mayor de Renal glanced at Pessini, and he suddenly realized that his original plan was to use the hands of the president's cronies to give the Castle of Clolus (not so much a castle as an ordinary mansion) to Pessini. Sydney, now is not an opportunity.

"That's right, Your Excellency the President left something at the dinner party yesterday, and I came here on purpose to return it to Your Excellency!" De Reyna said as he brought the prepared land deed to Pesini.

Pesini looked at the title deed in De Reina's hands, and he was 100% sure that what the so-called president left at the banquet was the "gift" they wanted to give the president.

"Mr. Mayor, this gift is really expensive! It shouldn't be left by the president!" Pesini rejected De Reina's gift briskly.

"Mr. Secretary-General!" De Renal took out a French ticket of 5,000 francs from his pocket and said nonsense: "This is what you fell!"

Pesini took the bill from De Reina's hand and looked at the guy in front of him in surprise. He didn't expect that De Reina's shot would be so generous, and he immediately smiled and said, "That's right! It's me who fell! I didn't expect that You picked it up!"

After all, he quietly put the bill in his arms.

"This..." De Renal hinted at Pesini while pointing to the title deed.

"This thing is too valuable!" Pessini rejected De Reina again, and then changed the conversation: "If it can be proved that the value of this land is within the scope of the gift, I think Mr. President will be happy to accept it. "

"Of course, of course!" De Renal also reacted, he patted his chest and said to Persini: "Mr. Persini, Clolusburg is just an old house that is about to fall into disrepair! The hall had decided to demolish it, and it was worth less than 100 francs."

"Less than 100 francs!" Persini nodded and said, "It's also within the range of gifts!"

"That's right! That's right!" De Reyna nodded like a chicken pecking at the rice: "The most worthless thing these days is land! If Your Excellency the President doesn't want it, we'll have to tear it down!"

"Anyway, it's an old house! It's a pity that it's demolished. I'll take it for the president!" Persini stretched out his hand and took it from Clolus, who De Renal wanted to give to Jerome Bonaparte. The fort deed, and then handed Mr. de Renal a note of five hundred francs to remind: "This is the purchase of a house by the president!"

"Yes! Yes!" De Renal nodded again: "On behalf of Tours City Hall, I would like to thank His Excellency the President for helping the City Hall solve problems!"

...

September 11, 1849.

Jerome Bonaparte returned to Paris after nearly a month away from Paris.

At this time, the Paris railway station was already blocked, and the two sides of the platform were filled with members of the Paris National Guard.

It was Fleury, the staff member of the National Guard Staff, who led the National Guard to maintain law and order at the train station. Fleury, who was a temporary colonel in the National Guard, took the initiative to ask Ying to maintain law and order after receiving the news that the president had returned to Paris.

After the approval of the Minister of War Liueli and the commander-in-chief of the National Guard Changarnier, he led the National Guard to maintain law and order.

The train from Tours slowly stopped at the platform. The presidential guard got off first, followed by Jérôme Bonaparte and Conrobert.

"Your Excellency, the National Guard Staff Staff Officer Fleury reports!" Fleury, who had not seen Jerome Bonaparte for a long time, excitedly saluted Jerome Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte also wanted Fleury in return.

Led by Fleury, Jerome Bonaparte got into the carriage.

Escorted by the Guard and the National Guard, Jerome Bonaparte returned to the Elysee Palace.

Jerome Bonaparte, who had just stepped into the gate of the Elysee Palace, said to Fleury the next second, "Fleury, help me call Minister Tocqueville here!"

"Yes!" Fleury responded, turning to leave.

"Colonel Conrobert!" Jerome Bonaparte ordered Conrobert: "Let the Presidential Secretariat mobilize, I need a detailed information on the military strength of Prussia and Austria."

"I'll make arrangements now!" Conrobel also left the Elysee Palace.

"Mocar, you will be my private secretary while Pessini is away!" Jerome Bonaparte pointed at Mocar and said.

"I'm happy to serve you!" Mocal hurriedly expressed his loyalty to Jerome Bonaparte~www.novelhall.com~ Let's go! Back to the study! "Jérôme Bonaparte returned to the study with Mocar.

After about half an hour, Foreign Minister Tocqueville and Fleury came to the study, and Fleury left the study alone.

"Your Excellency!" Tocqueville took off his hat and saluted to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Minister Tocqueville, I don't want to talk too much nonsense! Please tell me everything that happened between Prussia and Austria during this period!" Jerome Bonaparte told Tocque directly. Will asked.

Tocqueville told Jerome Bonaparte about the contradiction between Prussia and Austria, and the situation was just as Jerome Bonaparte speculated that the contradiction between Prussia and Austria was in the Principality of Hesse-Kassel. The problem, of course, at the heart of all this is the Prussian-Austrian **** of the German territories.

"Mr. Tocqueville, I already understand the general situation! Leave the rest to me!"
