Make France Great Again

Chapter 316 Walewski takes orders in danger

Marriage has been a major event in life since ancient times. From the monarch to the common people, they are worried about who to marry.

Especially for a monarch, marriage is not only related to their own interests, but also to the interests of the entire country and nation.

In the face of national and political interests, the happiness of the monarch takes a secondary position.

In the Western world, marriages between nobles and nobles and between royal families have become unshakable unspoken rules. The stories of princes and Cinderella, princesses and little tailors can only appear in the world of fairy tales.

Of course, as long as you can use the army to completely crush the orthodox order like Jerome Bonaparte's uncle, Emperor Napoleon, and the army comes to the opponent's capital, then they will obediently betroth the princess to you.

The mother of Jérôme Bonaparte and the wife of Prince Eugene (Napoleon's adopted son)... they all relied on Emperor Napoleon's troops to complete their counterattacks.

With the collapse of the Napoleonic dynasty, these imperial princes who completed the counterattack once again returned to the starting point. They needed to rely on the protection of their wives to survive.

The second generation of Bonapartes (Jérôme Bonaparte's generation) was in a miserable state. With only half of the "noble" blood left, their marriage with the same "prince" family was destined to be full of ups and downs.

The lucky "prince" (son of Prince Eugene), after obtaining "forgiveness" from the royal family, married their daughter.

The unlucky "princes" (Prince Canino, Charles Bonaparte) can only choose internal digestion.

There are also some "princes" (Louis Napoleon) who can only lower themselves to marry "common people". (Referring to the marriage between Louis Napoleon and Eugenie in OTL history. Eugenie's father was just a general of the empire.)

What's even worse is someone like Jerome Bonaparte, who still has half of the "Württemberg" blood in his body, but he has done things that trampled on the "sacred order".

Under such circumstances, how could Jérôme Bonaparte gain the understanding of the orthodox monarch.

"Sister, the question now is not whether I want to get married, but whether those royal families who claim to have "noble" blood are willing to marry us!" Jérôme Bonaparte had a sarcastic expression on his face, and he expressed Liao Tanshou responded to Mathilde Bonaparte: "Now the pricing power is in their hands, we are just buyers without bargaining power!"

Faced with Jerome Bonaparte's behavior of referring to the princess as a commodity, Mathilde Bonaparte glared at Jerome Bonaparte fiercely: "I didn't hear it from your mouth. I heard a comforting word!”

"I'm just stating the facts!" Jerome Bonaparte shrugged, "Am I going to tell you that your brother I am a heartthrob that everyone loves?"

"Just you?" Mathilde Bonaparte looked at Jérôme Bonaparte with a look of disgust: "You don't even look at your own appearance!"

"What's wrong with my appearance!" Jérôme Bonaparte retorted with a frown: "I have perfectly inherited the excellent genes of my mother and the Bonaparte family!"

Mathilde Bonaparte continued to look at Jérôme Bonaparte with disgust.

De Morny and Valewski, who were standing aside, looked at the pair of siblings who seemed to have not grown up yet, with a knowing smile on their lips.

Compared to Jérôme Bonaparte, who had a stern face that kept strangers away from him before, he is obviously much more approachable now.

Only in front of Mathilde Bonaparte, a relative, would Jérôme Bonaparte really not pay attention to his manners.

The same is true for Mathilde Bonaparte. If her literary friends were to see the quiet and elegant princess in such a state, they would definitely be shocked.

After looking at each other for a long time, this pair of "living treasures" siblings smiled at the same time.

"In short, you must get engaged as soon as possible!" Mathilde Bonaparte stopped smiling at Jerome Bonaparte and said to Jerome Bonaparte with a serious face: "You are not doing this for yourself. Talk about it, and think about it for them and the Bonaparte family!" Mathilde Bonaparte pointed to Valewski and De Morny and then said: "If the ruler of a country has no heirs, If so, what should the outside world think? How can those who are loyal to us believe in a ruler who doesn’t even have any heirs!"

Although Mathilde Bonaparte's words were a bit harsh, they did tell the truth.

Ever since Jérôme Bonaparte established the dictatorship, everyone knew that the establishment of an empire was just around the corner.

Therefore, many people hope in their hearts that Jerome Bonaparte can marry a princess and contribute to the empire.

Of course, if you are a Habsburg princess, that is not necessary.

In the eyes of Parisians, the Habsburg princess is the source of all troubles.

Louis XVI and Emperor Napoleon, which one did not fall on the head of the Habsburg princess.

[PS: The old tradition of Paris and the people of the world is to blame women for all misfortunes. 】

"I understand!" Jérôme Bonaparte nodded to express his understanding.

"It's best to resolve this matter as soon as possible! You are no longer the child you used to be, so I won't bother you anymore!" Mathilde Bonaparte warned Jérôme Bonaparte again, and then turned around Leave.

Mathilde Bonaparte left the study, and Jérôme Bonaparte set his sights on De Morny and Valewski.

"I'm going to send Princess Mathilde off!" Seeing that the situation was not going well, De Morny rubbed oil on his feet and left.

Only Valewski and Jérôme Bonaparte were left in the study.

"Your Majesty, I think..." Walewski hoped that Jerome Bonaparte could get married as soon as possible and strive to give birth to a qualified heir for the future empire, but like Morny, he also did not want to be tainted by the heat. The marriage of Rome Bonaparte.

The marriage of a monarch is a trap, especially a usurper monarch like Jerome Bonaparte.

Walewski knew that once he agreed to this request, endless "torture" would probably be waiting for him.

If that's all, then that's it.

The most important thing is that if the wife he chose for Jerome Bonaparte was not favored by the monarch, then Walewski had to bear the monarch's complaints.

Alexander Valewski couldn't help but complain about the unreliable Prince Montfort. Choosing a suitable wife for Jerome Bonaparte should have been Prince Montfort's decision, but now he had to push it to them.

How did Alexander Walewski know that if Mathilde Bonaparte had not fought against all the odds, Prince Montfort would have considered choosing a suitable candidate for Jerome Bonaparte.

In view of Prince Montfort's own entangled "black history", Mathilde Bonaparte directly talked about Prince Montfort's deprivation of rights.

Now Prince Montfort has nothing but the title of Marshal, acting as the mascot of the "Second House", receiving a certain monthly allowance and the subsidy given to him by Jérôme Bonaparte. s right.

In order to maintain the "reputation" of the Bonaparte family, Mathilde Bonaparte strictly monitored Prince Montfort.

With Mathilde Bonaparte, the "selfless" Bonaparte acting patriarch, the entire Bonaparte family did not do anything extraordinary.

Privately, some Bonaparte members complained a lot about Mathilde Bonaparte.

Jérôme Bonaparte did not know what Valewski was thinking. Knowing that he felt sorry for Valewski, Jérôme Bonaparte cleared his throat and said: "Cough... cough , Cousin, please take care of this matter for a little longer!"

There was a trace of bitterness on the corner of Walewski's mouth, and he responded dryly: "As you command!"

In this way, Valewski accepted the task forced upon him by Jérôme Bonaparte to find a suitable princess.

"By the way! You can go to Minister De Ruiz to discuss it. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs can always give unexpected results!" Jerome Bonaparte reminded Valewski.

For the next half month, Walewski traveled back and forth between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Tuileries Palace.

The news that Jerome Bonaparte had chosen a suitable princess and married her spread like wildfire in Paris.

The citizens of Paris are actively discussing what kind of wife Jerome Bonaparte is going to marry.

Seeing the increasing popularity, Jérôme Bonaparte began to shape his people-friendly persona again.

This method had been used as early as the period of Louis Philippe, who portrayed himself as the guardian of the middle class in order to gain the support of the National Guard.

Even though Louis Philippe has tried his best to let go of his airs, his innate aristocratic blood has always prevented him from truly letting go.

Compared with Louis Philippe, Jérôme Bonaparte obviously did not have these burdens.

In order to create a more people-friendly persona than Louis Philippe, he even called some reporters to the Tuileries Palace to tell them jokes and some dirty jokes for later generations.

Early the next morning, major newspapers in Paris published reports on Jerome Bonaparte's marriage, many of which contained some vulgar language.

Although these languages ​​have been criticized by some defenders, find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan. com But there is no doubt that it has shortened the distance between Jerome Bonaparte and the citizens of Paris.

After that, there were more and more news and gossip reports about Jérôme Bonaparte.

Eugenie and the Marquise Allais became the first victims, for which Jérôme Bonaparte comforted Eugenie.

In addition to gossip reports, there are also more and more news such as the president shooting a bear or a rabbit.

For this reason, Jérôme Bonaparte even received the titles of "animal killer" and "playboy".
