Victor Hugo's self-deprecation silenced all the literati present.
The whole meeting gradually fell into a dead silence from the original fiery heat.
As the initiator of all this, Victor Hugo looked at the silent literati and realized that he might have screwed up this salon that he had finally formed. Save, why don't we face it with an optimistic attitude! Maybe the situation is not so bad!"
Having said that, Victor Hugo suddenly thought of something. He looked at Mathilde and changed the subject: "Dear Princess, where is Prince Jerome?"
"Huh?" Mathilde, who had regained her senses, responded suspiciously, "Father is still living at the Rhine Hotel!"
"I'm not talking about the old Prince Jerome, and your younger brother, Prince Jerome Bonaparte! You don't know it yet! He already has more votes than me in the Seine!" Victor Hugo Said to the literati present.
When the literati present heard Victor Hugo's revelation, they looked at Mathilde at the same time, and there was a hint of curiosity in George Sand's eyes.
When the topic turned to her, Mathilde could only bite the bullet and say, "My brother is traveling in Rome! It is estimated that it will take some time to return to France!"
Victor Hugo shook his head and said, "Fortunately, His Excellency the Prince didn't come back, otherwise Paris wouldn't know what the chaos would be like!"
"Yeah! Paris is now..." Mathilde also showed melancholy on her face, but she wished that Paris would be more chaotic.
"Again, Princess Mathilde! Does your brother intend to participate in this election! According to his votes, he is fully capable of participating in the election!" Victor Hugo then asked.
"It depends on his will!" Mathilde tried to practice Tai Chi: "If he is willing to participate in the election, let him participate. If he is not willing to participate, then there is nothing we can do!"
"The current French political scene really needs to inject some living power. If it is always controlled by some people, France will become a backwater!" Victor Hugo openly implied that Cavaignac's governance and the actions of the National Assembly In order to have chilled the heart of the former Orleanist, now the republican, he hopes to attract another force to the French political scene.
"Mathilde! If your brother wants to participate in the election, we can help you!" George Sand took Mathilde's hand and said intimately, "We still have some strength!"
"That's right! Let those chengguan masters go to hell!" Dumas shouted.
During the February Revolution, he was kicked out of the National Guard and was marginalized from the National Assembly. He was very angry with the National Assembly.
Immediately after, Merimee and St. Beauf also joined the ranks of "denouncement".
Mathilde looked at these "friends" in the salon and thanked them one by one.
"I've read Prince Louis Napoleon's 'The Elimination of Poverty'!" Victor Hugo once again diverted the topic and said, "Frankly, that book describes what the current republic should do, public and free education, industry allocation..."
Victor Hugo talked endlessly about the content of "Eradication of Poverty". Since everyone present had not read the content, they could only listen to Victor Hugo's solo speech quietly.
Gradually, they were attracted by the "big pie" in "Eradication of Poverty", and in their hearts there was an impulse that "perhaps Bonaparte might be in power".
Victor Hugo was like a Bonapartist who preached the contents of "The Elimination of Poverty". After the speech, Victor Hugo looked at Mathilde quietly and asked: "If the heat Will this be possible if Prince Roma is in power?"
"To tell you the truth, my brother is also a supporter of my cousin!" Mathilde said immediately: "He once told me that the Republic must be generous! The Republic must implement the principle of redistribution, even if we For the concept of disdain for socialism, but we can't let the poor get poorer and the rich richer! Isn't this France the same as England!"
"If Prince Jerome is really willing to follow his ideas, of course I'm willing to vote for him!" Victor Hugo added in a brisk tone, "However, all this will have to wait until we meet!"
"Of course!" Mathilde responded, "After my brother returns to Paris, I will let him visit you as soon as possible!"
In Mathilde's guide, a light-hearted literary salon turned into Mathilde's "Dazzling Brother" solo performance.
After the salon, everyone except George Sand was curious about Jerome Bonaparte.
Mathilde took advantage of the situation and accumulated a wave of popularity for her younger brother.
Time continued to move forward, and in a blink of an eye, it came to June 29.
On this day, dark clouds shrouded the whole of Paris, lightning shuttled through the clouds, and a storm seemed to be about to ravage the whole of Paris.
East and Southeast of Paris.
The Paris workers who endured for nearly a week finally could no longer endure hunger.
The government has issued an ultimatum to them. If they do not obey the government's arrangement and leave before July 1, the government will use coercive means.
Everyone knows what the government means of coercion. They are unwilling to leave Paris, and they can only choose to resist.
Under the voluntary organization of the workers, they gradually advanced to the city hall and built barricades in the areas where the workers lived.
The reason why they, who only possessed a few weapons, chose to revolt at this time was because the cannons of the government army could not be used on rainy days, which further shortened the gap between them.
However, they still underestimated the determination of the reactionary government. As a military dictator, Cavaignac had long been waiting for the workers' uprising, 20 minutes after the workers announced the uprising and demanded the dissolution of the National Assembly.
Cavaignac came to the barracks lightly, and the six generals were waiting for Cavaignac's arrival.
"Generals, let's start! Kill this mob! The Republic will never forget your contribution!" Cavaignac's murderous words cheered all the generals present.
More than 50,000 troops quickly entered Paris and cleaned Paris with the cooperation of the National Guard.
The torrential rain also followed. The sudden torrential rain restricted the artillery of the regular army and gave the workers the opportunity to arm themselves.
Many workers' armed forces took the opportunity to seize the weapons of the National Guard.
However, all this has no effect on the overall situation. The regular army without artillery support still showed the ability to crush the insurgent workers.
The barricades were swept away, and workers, women and children were killed by the beast army that had entered Paris.
On the cloudy day of June 30, Cavaignac had gradually cleaned up the insurgent troops on the front line of the city hall, and the insurgent troops slowly retreated.
On July 1, when it was clear, Cavaignac broke into the streets of the suburbs of Saint-Denis and Saint-Martin, and leveled the barricades with artillery.
On July 2, the last of the workers' bases, the suburbs of St. Anton and Temple, fell.
At this point, the 100,000 uprising workers in Paris were slaughtered by Cavaignac, and the rest were sent to other provinces under the pressure of the army.
