January 29, 1849.

In France in January, the nights are always long and the days are short. The sky at six o’clock is still dotted with stars, the gray-black sky and the howling cold wind shrouded the whole of Paris, making it feel an inexplicable depression and trembling, like a very Today's Paris.

The study room of the Elysee Palace under the gray-black sky unexpectedly lit up. Through the candlelight emanating from the study room, one could vaguely see a figure appearing by the window of the study room. He was Jerome Bonaparte.

With a Napoleon hat on his head, a blue and black Lev dress, a Legion of Honor medal on his chest, and a pair of leather boots on his feet, Jerome Bonaparte was standing by the window, gazing at the soon-to-be-white sky in the distance, and then using Out of the corner of the eye, he glanced at the gilded pendulum sitting next to him.

There are still more than four hours before the start of the military parade. This is the earliest time when Jerome Bonaparte has woken up since he became president, and it is also the first military parade in Jerome Bonaparte’s career as president. ceremony.

In the heart of every man, he always hopes that he will become a general who can command thousands of troops, and Jerome Bonaparte is no exception. He just lay in bed and slept, for fear that he would miss the military parade the next day, but he was not sleepy at all, and all he could think about was how he would command them to defeat the enemy in the future until 2 am on the 29th. Just before falling asleep, Jerome Bonaparte, with a strong inner hint, only slept for 3 hours and 30 minutes before being woken up by the biological clock.

After waking up, he carefully put on the clothes prepared the day before and went to the study alone holding a candlestick with 4 candles, waiting for the start of the military parade.

He came to the study carefully and did not disturb anyone in the Elysee Palace. Even the four soldiers who were in charge of patrolling and defending the Elysee Palace at night did not find out until the study room was bright.

In the study, Jerome Bonaparte paced back and forth with his head lowered. From time to time, he came to the mirror to tidy up his uniform, or adjusted his Napoleon three-cornered hat on his head.

In short, the heart of President Jerome Bonaparte is very anxious.

As time passed, the stars quietly disappeared, the sky was no longer gray and black, the hot sun slowly rose from the horizon, and the whistling cold wind gradually weakened with the dawn.

The time came to 7:30. Pesini, who got up early in the morning, yawned and went to the presidential bedroom to wake up Jerome Bonaparte.

Since the police chief, Colonel Fleury, was assigned by Jerome Bonaparte to the National Guard staff as a full-fledged colonel, the job of waking Jerome Bonaparte was handed over to Persini.

Pesini, who entered the presidential bedroom, did not find the figure of Jerome Bonaparte, and he was instantly refreshed after being exhausted.

It stands to reason that His Majesty should be sleeping in the bedroom at this moment! How could it suddenly disappear!

The president's "disappearance" caused Pesini to panic, and he ran out of the bedroom in a panic to tell them about the president's disappearance.

At this moment, the door of the study slowly opened, and Jerome Bonaparte came out of the study.

"Your Majesty, you..." Pessini stared at Jerome Bonaparte, who was already dressed in surprise, with wide eyes.

"What's the matter! Secretary-General Persini!" Jerome Bonaparte looked at Persini in surprise, then glanced at his clothes and asked curiously, "Is there anything dirty on my clothes? "

"No! No!" Pessini, who had recovered his senses, denies: "I just feel... feel..."

Pesini struggled with the words to use in order not to offend the president, but to be able to explain.

"I think my routine is a bit abnormal, don't you!" Jerome Bonaparte said what Persini didn't want to say, and then explained: "It's the first military parade, and it is inevitable that you will be a little excited!"

"Yeah!" Pessini nodded in understanding.

At 8:30 a.m., a group of cavalrymen dressed in brown-red warhorses arrived at the gate of the Elysee Palace. Residents coming and going on the street looked at the clothes of the soldiers in surprise. Some elderly residents had three-point pride in their eyes. I was moved by seven points. Wearing the green dragoon uniforms of the First Empire and wearing high-top military caps with feather collars, they seemed to have returned to France after more than 30 years, and the empire seemed to be back.

As the leader of this cavalry team, Colonel Fleury of the National Guard Staff and his deputy Edgar Ney wore red dragoon uniforms with a command knife tied to their thighs, much like the cavalry under the emperor. officer.

The team stopped in front of the mansion of the Elysee Palace, and Fleury, the temporary commander of the army, straightened his chest and gave an order like a bell: "Dismount!"

All the dragoons got off their horses in unison, and they led the horses to the left and right of the gate of the Elysee Palace. A gilded open-top double-bridge carriage with a beautiful golden bee pattern and a thin white leno drapery was gilded. Hooks are hung on both sides of the car window~www.novelhall.com~ so that people can see the interior at a glance. The double-bridge carriage slowly drives into the road made of cement under the driving of the driver and enters the courtyard of the Elysee Palace. , and stop at the main entrance of the Elysee Palace.

Inside the Elysee Palace.

"Your Majesty, it's time for us to get in!" Pessini said to Jerome Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte, who was in high spirits and prepared to ride a horse, lost his interest in an instant, and his face became slightly gloomy: "Secretary Pessini, can't I ride by myself?"

"Your Majesty, I heard that there are many rebels in the carriage city! Our priority is to ensure your safety!" Persini explained to Jerome Bonaparte.

"What a joke!" Jerome Bonaparte laughed angrily, he pointed to the carriage parked outside the door and said: "A few mice that are not visible make you so frightened! The marshal and general under my uncle's back then There is nothing like you!"

Jerome Bonaparte, unwilling to give the army the impression of being "detached from the masses", steadfastly refused to take the carriage with two bridges.

Persini, who could not resist Jerome Bonaparte's attitude, could only take a step back and let Jerome Bonaparte ride the horse, provided that Jerome Bonaparte must be in the protection circle of the dragoons until the official parade Start.

Jerome Bonaparte agreed to Persini's conditions. Under Persini's arrangement, Tyran led a white horse and a brown-red warhorse to the main entrance of the Elysee Palace. The horses were equipped with brand-new horses. harness.

Jerome Bonaparte and Pesini mounted their horses, carrying Jerome Bonaparte on the white horse and walked in front, and Pesini walked behind.

The courtyard surrounding the Elysée Palace came to the gate of the Elysée Palace.

Fleury and Edgar Ney were anxiously awaiting the arrival of Jerome Bonaparte.

It was already 8:30, and there was still an hour before the start time.
