Chapter 1485: Princess Champagne

   Chapter 1485 Princess Champagne

  The territories with minerals were often enfeoffed by the king before the Revolution. The Constituent Assembly only confiscated the fief of the church but not the nobles, so many of those engaged in the smelting industry were liberal nobles.

  Leoncourt’s reputation is as good as that of the old Duke of Saint Simon, and they and their descendants have escaped the reign of terror. But other nobles are different. They left France for various reasons. The upstarts bought their properties. As the exiles returned to China, the upstarts began to worry that the place they bought would be taken back. Give it back to the exiles.

  This is the information passed by Matilda after she went out to inquire about the news.

  Georgiana suddenly discovered Matilda’s lovely place, no wonder Sophie regarded her as a good friend.

  At this time someone is with her, Georgiana feels much better, and this is what Marmont is good at.

Gaining power and losing power is sometimes as simple as that. The news of Santo Domingo’s defeat did not spread widely. Many people thought that Napoleon got everything now because of luck. Maybe they knew it and thought it would be better to go to Santo Domingo. Can save the defeat.

  She hopes that there will be more people like this. The problem is that even the Swiss are not willing to go. Who wants to go?

In an agitated mood, the president of the Sampini Carriage Chamber of Commerce Pierre Louis Le Drell came. He also had an identity. He used to serve as a member of the Senate of the Supervisory Government. Arrived at the Senate. He participated in the Constituent Assembly, served as a lawyer and judge of the High Court of Metz, was elected to the three-tier parliament in charge of fiscal reforms in 1789, and later served as deputy inspector of the Seine province, and supported Louis XVI in the Paris newspaper in 1792. On August 10, when the Pantsless Man invaded the Tuileries Palace, he helped the royal family take refuge in Parliament.

  Sampigny is located near the Compiègne Forest in Upper France. It is an important French carriage manufacturing town. Some of these carriages are used for military transportation of artillery, and they must be of good quality.

  Jan of Arc was also in desperation near the Compiègne Forest. Gaston Martin always said that she was worried about her becoming Joan. Now what he said seems to be fulfilled.

  He brought a gift, a bottle of champagne from his own winery. Giorgioanna doesn’t think there is any victory worth cheering now.

  After sitting in the living room, Ludrell's gaze stayed on Figer who was following Georgiana. Figer stood in a straight military posture, his expression calm and natural, not at all cramped.

   "Are you a dragoon?" Ledrell said.

   "Yes, sir." Figl answered immediately.

   "In 1792, everyone enthusiastically reported that the people joined the army, even Miss De Merrigou pinned a pistol to her waist and appeared in the National Convention, demanding the formation of the'Amazon Army'."

   "I joined the army at that time." Figl said.

   "How many battles did you participate in?" Ledrell asked.

"I joined the army to defend my beloved motherland. In order to take responsibility with my comrades in arms, I had to attack people I had never met before. They never hurt me. Under the shadow of the sword, the two sides often forget the so-called humanity... so I I don't remember how many battles I have participated in." Figl frowned and said.

   "Every court session is like a duel, but I remember every case I tried, and the faces of those people. Only champagne can make me forget them." Ledrell said.

  No one spoke, Georgiana thought he might have drunk to forget the events of August 10.

  "You can rest now, soldier, we are safe here," Ledrell said.

  Figel bowed to the two, then stepped back.

  After she left, Ludrell said softly, "Do you want to be the second'Mary Queen'? Princess?"

   "Is it that bad?" Georgiana asked blankly.

"The first ruling is asking our spies sent to Britain to collect parliamentary scandals. The war has indeed brought benefits to many people. The prices of everything will increase, and some minor crimes that do not affect the situation of the war will be pardoned. The British Secretary of the Navy will investigate. There has been a case of embezzlement of public funds by a timber supplier, but it is currently covered by public opinion on the abolition of income tax. The end of a scolding war is usually hands-on. Do you hope that peace will end so early?"

   "What does this have to do with my hope, peace will not last long." Georgiana sneered and said, "What is the agreement, it is simply a truce."

"The Baltic Sea is related to the grain and timber business between Britain and Russia." Ludrel said. "Because of the breakup of diplomatic relations with Britain, Russia has lost the timber market, and the expelled Russian aristocracy is currently returning. Britain re-aligned. Since you are so interested in timber, why not continue?"

   "Because I found this to be a dangerous game." Georgiana said blankly, "You guys don't want to use me."

"I thought you knew it was a dangerous game." Ludrell smiled. "The purple robe is the most beautiful shroud. Are you just talking about this? Or are you going to listen to the arrangements of the first ruling? Go to Annecy?"

"how do you know?"

"A monarch who has a wide range of knowledge, open-minded, selfless, and does not care about the old and evil, he can accept even a'royal party' like me. This is his advantage." Ludrell said blankly, "I think You know, he also went on August 10th. I was inside the window, he was outside the window, and the king’s family gathered around the king. Their lives depended on the soldiers standing in front of him. He could have depended on him. A word and a look aroused their courage, but the king did nothing. The queen said angrily, "He is desperate and everything is over." Others felt that way. I went back to the soldiers. I found that they were not willing to fight for this cause, but the commander-in-chief Munda ran away, and the artillery was unwilling to open fire, so I was convinced that there was no hope for the guards. The first ruling told me that the queen was actually going to say something at that time , She eagerly hoped to fight and said something to encourage morale to everyone, but she said nothing. Instead, she asked Delvilli,'Do you think it is a mistake for us to stay in Paris now?', and he replied,'God Bless, you should not regret this.' You should encourage the first ruling party to continue fighting instead of begging him to show mercy."

   "I can't do it." Georgiana shook her head.

   "Think about your consequences. The outcome of failure is terrible. The French respect Caesar but don't like Cleopatra. Do you want him to be called a good man but a bad king?"

   "That is extinct."

  "Killing unarmed civilians is also exterminating humanity. Why can you accept it?"

   "I don't want to hear this, why don't you tell it to..."

"Josephine is a beautiful girl, she can't bear that much." Le Reidel said, "You sympathize with those slaves, and so do I, but they chose revenge after they were free. We have 20 generals who died in that jungle. Our soldiers also long for revenge."

   "God..." she murmured.

"Leoncourt told you that nothing that can be solved with money is a problem. Now our problems are not solved with money." Le Reidel said. The policy is at least able to achieve. General Mula and Rana are not famous. General Augereau’s father is a servant. We also gave Luvidul’s officers an equal opportunity for promotion, but they took advantage of us. This It is unforgivable."

   "What should I do then?"

"In 51 BC, Caesar besieged Kagor. It was not until the last of the Gauls who protected Gaul’s independence died in battle. Caesar withdrew his troops. From then on, Gaul became a province of Rome and paid eight million francs a year. For the Roman treasury, we can also use the same method to ask those cities and villages whether they support the independence of Santo Domingo, and those who choose to submit to us, we will use your policy to hand over the local police power to the other party. If we choose to protect our independence, we will use artillery bombardment. We will not enter the land and jungle. Our navy can be responsible for the transportation of supplies."

  Georgiana is still weighing.

  "The power of the Republic is inseparable. Have you ever thought about who leaked the news that we were going to attack Santo Domingo and let the locals hear that I was going to restore slavery?"

  She was taken aback.

"This is a trap. Someone deliberately spread rumors. I think you also know the rumors last year. At that time, the first ruling was also angry, but it was not as powerful as this time. What I want to say is that after the September incident, it was not always Individuals express condemnation and sympathy just like you British people. Both Roland and Condorcet think this is necessary. Although it is cruel, it is absolutely righteous. You can't just think about the justice of slaves."

   "It's cruel." She shook her head.

   "Then he will be like a king, and will use the minister's order to cover up his sins, because the king is far away from the battlefield, he can divide the land to a king, as long as the king pays taxes on time."

   "Don't want that land, all right!" Georgiana said angrily.

  "We can send people to publicize whether the locals support independence. Our goal is to eliminate those who support independence, not the poor slaves. Do you understand what I said?" Le Redel said loudly.

  Georgiana cried.

  She wanted to go home, why didn't Severus come to see her.

"You don’t need to care about the carriage factory in Annecy. You leave me in Paris." Le Redel stood up. Dare to stay in Paris."

  He left after speaking.

  Georgina cried louder.

  Perhaps this is a punishment, punishing them to let some children guard Hogwarts, they have been living in the closed world of boarding school.

Then Matilda came over and hugged her. She was a little more sober and remembered the most annoying person in the Order of the Phoenix, Mondungus Fletcher, who was actually a person similar to Talleyrand—all scum .

   "Prepare the carriage!" Georgiana said aggressively.

  She didn’t want to sit still, and she wanted to see where the bet was placed on this dog.

  She looked at the champagne on the table and picked it up. She planned to treat it as a meeting gift.
