Make France Great Again

Chapter 662 Clouds move from all sides

In the view of the Sardinian ambassador, Prime Minister Cavour's call back was both an encouragement and a hint.

Sure enough, a few days after Prime Minister Cavour's telegram was sent, the Sardinian ambassador received a gift from Turin and a personal letter from Prime Minister Cavour.

There were many kinds of gifts, the most precious of which was the pebble-sized sapphire.

According to the introduction of Prime Minister Cavour, the Sardinian ambassador learned that the pebble-sized sapphire was one of the king's private collections, and now it is fully handled by the Sardinian ambassador, hoping that he can maximize the value of the sapphire. , don’t let down the king’s ardent hope.

After reading Cavour's letter, the Sardinian ambassador expressed his sincere admiration for Cavour's ability to persuade the king to implement the plan (in fact, the king of Sardinia had already been convinced). You must know that Savoia and Nice are two different places. It was very difficult to convince the king to give up the Longxing Land of the Safuyin royal family in exchange for an opportunity to send troops.

At present, Cavour not only successfully persuaded the king to implement this plan, but also obtained precious sapphires from the Savoy royal family as gifts to the Bonaparte family.

It can be imagined how high Prime Minister Cavour's trust is in His Majesty's heart. Working with such a figure will give you more opportunities to be promoted to ambassador.

Later, the ambassador of the Kingdom of Sardinia lit Cavour's letter, hid the gift, and sat alone on a chair thinking about how to maximize the value of the gift itself.

While the Sardinian ambassador was thinking, in a room in the Tuileries Palace, Queen Augusta of the French Empire was sitting on the sofa listening to the report.

The person responsible for reporting to Queen Augusta is none other than Marcel Jerug, the director of the French National Intelligence Service.

"Your Majesty the Queen, this is a letter written by Cavour, Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Sardinia, to the Ambassador of Sardinia!" Marcel Jerug took out the folded letter from his wallet and handed it to Queen Augusta. .

After Queen Augusta lowered her head and read it carefully, she raised her head again and asked Marcel Jerug curiously. Since the letter from Prime Minister Cavour to the Sardinian ambassador was in her hands, what about Sardinia? The ambassador did not have a letter from Cavour. Will the Sardinian ambassador, who did not receive the letter, suspect that France has been blamed?

Marcel Jerug told Queen Augusta that the letter in her hand was just a copy. The real letter should have arrived at the Sardinian Embassy by now, so there would be no such thing as what Queen Augusta said. accident happened.

Queen Augusta's face showed a little surprise that Marcel Jerug was able to complete a series of actions calmly.

Does this explain Marcel Jerug himself...

Looking at the vigilant Queen Augusta, Marcel Jerug couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

The worst thing about being a special police officer is that you will always be hostile to the monarch.

After all, every monarch is a person who is lenient on the outside and taboo on the inside. A profession like the special police that can monitor everyone except the monarch may not be able to monitor the monarch.

It seems that his predecessor Fouche had to leave the position of Minister of Police because he was jealous of the monarch.

Now, will he also suffer from the Queen's suspicion?

"Your Majesty the Queen, I am not responsible for the defense of the Tuileries Palace, but General Edgar Neyin!" In order to avoid being suspected by Queen Augusta, Marcel Jerug hurriedly told Augusta Queen Star explained.

"I know!" Queen Augusta's face turned slightly red. She also realized that her previous behavior was indeed somewhat inappropriate, and then she immediately turned into a kind smile and responded to Marcel Jerug: "Marcel Sir, you have made an indelible contribution to France! I will report your achievements to the emperor!"

"It is an honor for me to serve the Bonaparte family!" Marcel Jerug responded to Queen Augusta.

Next, Queen Augusta once again asked Marcel Jerug if there was any other news to report!

"Your Majesty the Queen, I also received a piece of information from St. Petersburg. The information was sent by members of the Foreign Intelligence Service dispatched to Russia by the National Intelligence Service!" Marcel Jerug respectfully addressed Queen Augusta. He handed over the contents of the intelligence and said to Queen Augusta.

Augusta received the intelligence from Marcel Jerug. The intelligence recorded in detail the state of Nicholas I's life in the recent period (he stayed up day and night, worked all night), and his physical condition (some time ago , the temperature in St. Petersburg suddenly dropped, Nicholas I suffered from severe influenza, and at the same time insisted on reviewing the troops in the suburbs of St. Petersburg without wearing winter clothes,) and analysis of the contents of newspapers published in St. Petersburg newspapers in recent times ( Newspapers only reported once that Nicholas I fell ill with influenza while working tirelessly for the Russian Empire. In the following period, no news about the Tsar's health appeared in newspapers.)

At the same time, he also found Nicholas I's personal doctor through a nobleman who was inclined to France and asked about Nicholas I's situation.

The conclusion at the end of the final intelligence report: Various signs indicate that under the blow of successive failures, the already elderly Nicholas I's physical condition is getting worse and worse, and it is very likely that he will not be able to survive this winter.

After reading the content and conclusion of the intelligence, Queen Augusta's face showed a hint of joy. She knew that once Nicholas I returned to the arms of the Lord this winter, the morale of the Russian Imperial Army would inevitably decline.

At that time, the French army will be able to quickly defeat the Russian army and win the war.

"Send this message to the Crimea Peninsula as soon as possible!" Augusta put the information on the table, and then added: "Remember not to send it in plain code, use a coded message to send it to Crimea!"

"Yes!" Marcel Jerug stood up and responded to Queen Augusta, and then bid farewell to Queen Augusta tactfully.

"Thank you!" Queen Augusta nodded slightly and responded to Marcel Jerug.

"This is what I should do!" Marcel Jerug replied.

After Marcel Jerug left, the palace manager Mokar appeared in front of Queen Augusta and said: "Your Majesty the Queen!"

"What's wrong?" Queen Augusta asked Mokar.

Mokar told Queen Augusta that the bankers Emil Perel and Insac Perel wanted to meet with her.

"Let them come!" Queen Augusta seemed to have anticipated their arrival, she said in a calm tone.

After a while, Emil Perel and Yinsak Perel appeared in front of Queen Augusta.

"Your Majesty the Queen!" Brother Perel bowed to Queen Augusta.

"Sit down!" As soon as the two parties met, Queen Augusta said straight to the point: "The purpose of your coming to the Tuileries Palace is to win the Bank of Luxembourg's right to issue bank notes and redeem notes, right? !”

The Perel brothers showed a hint of surprise. They wanted to obtain the right to issue bank notes from the Bank of Luxembourg through Queen Augusta. This was something they had only recently made up their mind to fight for.

Why would Queen Augusta know what they were thinking, even though none of them had told her!

For a moment, the Perel brothers felt as if they had a little glimpse of the queen in front of them.

"The Emperor once told me that you two brothers are a pair of ambitious and courageous bankers, so you are absolutely unwilling to succumb to the control of the Bank of France!" Queen Augusta said to Perel slowly. The brother said: "However, the right to issue bank notes and the right to redeem notes of all banks in France has been monopolized by the Bank of France. The only way you want to break the situation is to have the right to issue bank notes and redeem rights of notes held by the Bank of Luxembourg. ! Am I right? Mr. Emil Perel!"

"Your Majesty, you are right!" Emil Perel nodded and said respectfully to Queen Augusta: "Thanks to the love of your two majesties, my brother and I have been able to go where we are today! We will We will remain loyal to Your Majesty and the Queen until the end of our lives!"

"Mr. Emile, my husband and I both know the loyalty of your two brothers, otherwise we would not leave the business of the Bonaparte family to you!" Augusta said to Emile Perel. .

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for trusting us!" Emil Perel said respectfully to Queen Augusta.

"But you are not the only one who wants to obtain the bank note issuance rights of the Bank of Luxembourg. I am also determined to obtain it from the Bank of France!" Queen Augusta said softly: "You should know that for a monopoly As a bank, the Bank of Luxembourg is small, but it has all the functions of the Bank of France! In other words, it has the possibility of becoming the Bank of France. Find Shuyuan www.zhaoshuyuan.com I think if Luxembourg is If the bank hands it over to you, the Banque de France will definitely not let it go!

If you tie up with the Bank of France because of the problems of the Bank of Luxembourg, it will cause a lot of trouble for me and His Majesty! "

After saying that, Augusta pretended to have a headache and said to Emile Perel.

"Your Majesty, if you are willing to hand over the Bank of Luxembourg to us, then this bank will forever belong to you and your Majesty the Emperor!" Emil Perel decisively offered what they could to the Emperor and the Emperor. The queen’s biggest bargaining chip,

And Emil firmly believed that even the Bank of France would not be able to give them such chips.

"Mr. Emil, can you tell me why you are doing this? If you do this, won't you get nothing?"
