Chapter 77： Sister Mathilde

Jerome Bonaparte, who had rented the entire floor, emptied the furniture in one of the rooms, leaving only a few chairs. He told the Bonapartists that he planned to use this empty room as a temporary meeting hall. In the empty temporary hall, the official meeting time for tomorrow was finalized with the Bonapartists. Immediately, an expulsion order was issued. Only Eugène Rouet, Persini, Fleury, and Letty remained.

"I let you stay because you are the most capable and loyal people in my opinion!" Jerome Bonaparte praised several people present at the beginning.

"Your Majesty, you are overrated!" Persini bowed his head humbly and said to Jerome Bonaparte: "We are all insignificant little people united under the banner of Bonaparte, without Bonaparte we are nothing! The Empire can Re-establishment in France is our common aspiration!"

Fleury, Letty, Roue and others nodded at the same time: "For the glory of the empire, we are bound to do so!"

"I promise you! If one day the emperor's soul favors me and allows me to rebuild the empire, you will share this glory with me!" Jerome Bonaparte pointed to the people present one by one and said.

A mature monarch will never be stingy in holding all the power in the palm of his hand. He needs to split part of the power as a reward and hand it over to his cronies. While giving power generously, he must also prevent them from connecting with each other. Through power to provoke the contradictions between them, so as to achieve the purpose of healthy competition. Only in this way can the empire prosper, and those powers delegated by the monarch can easily be reclaimed.

Jerome Bonaparte can share power with them, but they must serve as laborers for the empire for a lifetime.

As soon as Jerome Bonaparte saw any sign of their rebellion, he immediately took back the authority he had given them.

Since the Napoleon Dynasty, both the Restoration Dynasty and the Orleans Dynasty liked to share power with the French literati. Because the literati were better off, they used their pens to establish an image for their dynasty, and the dynasty gave them rich rewards.

Once the literati's opinions are at odds with the kingdom's, it only takes a single sentence to take back their power.

Although such power is only within the monarch's thoughts, there are still many people who are willing to fight for it.

Pesini and the others are also greedy fellows. After hearing Jerome Bonaparte's generous promise, the corners of their mouths trembled, and they looked extremely moved.

"Mr. Pesigny!" Jerome Bonaparte's expression became serious, and his tone became extraordinarily formal.

"Your Majesty!" Pessini replied.

"Now I accept your appointment as head of the secretary! I don't know, do you have any confidence!" Jerome Bonaparte issued the first appointment to Pessini.

"I will never fail His Majesty's entrustment!" Pesini said unswervingly.

Although Jérôme Bonaparte said that the head of the secretary's office may be just empty air, but this appointment represents that Pessini has successfully turned around.

Don't think that it's just an empty shelf. As long as Jerome Bonaparte becomes president, the head of the secretary's office will become the most powerful department.

Hearing Jerome Bonaparte's appointment, Eugène Rouet showed a look of envy, and at the same time he was also a little uneasy in his heart, not knowing what job Jerome Bonaparte gave him.

"Colonel Fleury!" Jerome Bonaparte also officially addressed Fleury.

"Yes!" Fleury stood upright, waiting for Jerome Bonaparte's appointment.

"You have been following me for a while, and I see your loyalty to the Bonaparte family! That's why I appointed you as the head of the guard room, and you are fully responsible for guarding my safety! I don't know if you want to!" Roma Bonaparte to Fleury.

"Of course I do!" Fleury said excitedly.

Protecting the safety of Jerome Bonaparte is undoubtedly the top priority, which represents Jerome Bonaparte's trust in him.

Those who can gain the trust of the monarch will never lack rights.

The next Captain Letty was given the job of publicity by Jerome Bonaparte, that is, organizing staff to distribute small advertisements on the streets.

Eugène Rouet was also appointed as "Foreign Secretary", and the focus of his work was to win over a group of people who were inclined towards Bonaparte by the Parliament or the Salon.

Of course, Jerome Bonaparte still hopes that Rouet can become Minister of Justice, because that is his job.

"I will tell all the Bonapartists about your appointment at the official meeting tomorrow, and ask them to respect your authority! Of course, your positions are not static. These are all subject to change."

Looking at the four people whose faces changed slightly, Jerome Bonaparte, who had explained everything, politely issued an order to evict the guests.

The four of them left in sequence, and the last one to leave, Jerome Bonaparte, closed the door of the temporary meeting and returned to the room where he lived before.

After finishing everything, Jerome Bonaparte was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, ready to fall asleep.

Just as Jerome Bonaparte was about to fall asleep, there was a rhythmic knock on the door.

Jerome Bonaparte, who was fighting back his drowsiness, yawned and walked slowly to the door, twisting the copper-plated door handle to open the door.

The door slowly opened, and a beautiful woman appeared outside the door. Jerome Bonaparte, who was sleepy at first, regained her energy instantly after seeing her He scratched his head and said, "Sister, so It's late! Why are you here!"

The beautiful woman standing at the door is Mathilde Bonaparte, who is also Jerome Bonaparte's sister.

Wearing a white court dress and holding an ivory fan, she looked at the lazy brother in front of her, and angrily poked Jerome Bonaparte in the chest with the ivory fan: "Jérôme, Why didn't you tell me in advance that you are here!"

"Hmm... um!" Jerome Bonaparte showed a sincere smirk, a smile he only had among his family members: "It's getting late! I'm thinking about telling you tomorrow. It's not too late!"

"What I told you in the letter! Do you still remember!" Mathilde said, looking at Jerome Bonaparte.

"What? What?" Jerome Bonaparte, who had just struggled out of a drowsy state, was a little confused.

Seeing that his sister Mathilde was about to go mad, Jerome Bonaparte instantly recalled what her sister had explained in the letter. Mathilde squeezed her shoulders and said, "You mean let me come back to see Mr. Hugo!"

"You still know!" Mathilde said with a hint of yin and yang in a strange tone: "When is our great prince going to meet him!"

"How can this be! I should visit at the door!" Jerome Bonaparte, who knew that his sister was contemplating himself, still said to her in a low voice.

I and my father owe my sister Mathilde too much.

"Let's go then! My lord!" Mathilde said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Go? Where are you going?"
