Chapter 592： "Gentlemen's Agreement"

Jerome Bonaparte understood that his answer would not convince the Prussian envoy, but would aggravate the doubts in the Prussian envoy, but so what! He is not a Prussian nanny and has no obligation to answer for the Kingdom of Prussia.

If the Prussian envoy was willing to believe it, then naturally everyone would be happy.

If the Prussian envoy is unwilling to believe, or even thinks that the Austrian Empire has a conspiracy with him, then ask the Kingdom of Prussia to directly lead the army to flatten his empire.

"Your Excellency the Minister, I'm going to enter the dance floor!" Jerome Bonaparte said with a hint of pride in his words.

"Your Majesty, I'm bothering you!" The Prussian envoy also realized his offense, and he hurriedly responded to Jerome Bonaparte.

Jerome Bonaparte, who entered the dance floor, saw Madame Vallewski in front of him and accompanied him to dance.

During the dance, Madame Vallewski gave him hints such as rubbing her **** with red beans. Jerome Bonaparte remained unmoved and finished the dance with one heart.

"Madame!" Taking advantage of the gap between the two tunes, Jerome Bonaparte whispered to Madame Wallevsky's ear, "I prefer to dance with me last time. you!"

After speaking, Jerome Bonaparte turned and left in a dashing manner, leaving only standing in place to stare blankly at Madame Vallewski, who was behind Jerome Bonaparte.

And this scene between Jerome Bonaparte and Madame Vallewski happened to be seen by Princess Mathilde who was on the edge of the dance floor.

Princess Mathilde, who had never dealt with Mrs. Wallewski, whispered to the people around her: "That Polish woman (Mrs. Wallewski) is really shameless!"

The gentlemen and young ladies surrounding Princess Mathilde could only nod in agreement with Princess Mathilde.

…

The dance came to an end as it approached 12 o'clock.

Jerome Bonaparte and Prince Albert met again in a corner of the ballroom.

"Why is everyone used to having some formal conversations during entertainment! Whether in Britain or in France!" Prince Albert complained to Jerome Bonaparte in a low voice.

"It's probably because they didn't see the ball as entertainment!" Jerome Bonaparte shrugged and responded to Prince Albert: "The biggest effect of the ball is not to draw closer to each other. Well!"

"By the way! Did the Prussian envoy contact you just now!" Prince Albert asked Jerome Bonaparte again.

Jerome Bonaparte nodded, and responded to Prince Albert without any concealment: "I found it! He wants to get news of the Austrian Empire from here!"

"The Prussian envoy came to me just now!" Prince Albert also responded: "He asked me the same questions as you!"

"It seems that the pressure we have brought to the Kingdom of Prussia is too great!" Jerome Bonaparte said briskly.

"Who said it wasn't?" Prince Albert also shrugged and said to Jerome Bonaparte: "Again, Metternich is worthy of Metternich! It only takes a few words to make Let the minister of a country have a sense of crisis!"

"Mr. Metternich, after all, has dominated the entire European system for nearly 30 years! His every move can't help but make people imagine!" Jerome Bonaparte responded.

"Yeah!" Albert agreed with Jerome Bonaparte, and then turned to Jerome Bonaparte and said, "However, then the whole of Europe and France will be yours!"

As soon as Prince Albert's words fell, Jerome Bonaparte immediately sounded an alarm bell in his heart. He didn't know whether Albert's words came out of emotion or had been brewing for a while, but this For Jerome Bonaparte, it is undoubtedly a red flag.

Jerome Bonaparte replied unhurriedly to Prince Albert: "France has given up the dream of dominating the European continent! We only hope to have our own place in this part of Europe... Only the European Only when the forces are balanced can peace come!"

A smile appeared on Prince Albert's face, which made Jerome Bonaparte unclear, what was in his heart.

However, Jerome Bonaparte guessed that Prince Albert probably regarded his remarks as farts.

It's just that Prince Albert wants to give him a face, not to expose him!

"The Kingdom of Britain hopes that the French Empire will keep its promise!" Prince Albert slowly responded to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Please rest assured! It is not good for France to destroy the European order. France is also willing to maintain order after the complete victory over the Russian Empire!" Jerome Bonaparte responded to Prince Albert.

When Jerome Bonaparte said this, the band also stopped playing.

Jerome Bonaparte walked to the dance floor and announced the end with a solemn tone.

A foreign envoy said goodbye to Jerome Bonaparte, the Victoria couple, and Franz Joseph respectively.

After all the foreign envoys had left, Jerome Bonaparte and Franz Joseph also bid farewell to the Victorias.

Jerome Bonaparte reminded Victoria and Albert to get up early tomorrow to attend the military parade, and then Jerome Bonaparte hugged each other with the Victoria couple. With the Victoria couple's farewell, Jerome Bonaparte Leaving the Louvre on foot with Franz Joseph and Prince Metternich.

[PS: The distance between the Louvre and the Tuileries Palace is very close. Napoleon III in the OTL period has connected the Tuileries Palace and the Louvre.

Jerome Bonaparte in this time and space is enough because the demand for the residence itself is enough, and he also delays the connection between the Tuileries Palace and the Louvre Museum. 】

Walking on the road under the moonlight, Jerome Bonaparte felt a long-lost peace in his heart. He hadn't pressed the road quietly like this for a long time.

"Franz!" Jerome Bonaparte said to Franz Joseph.

"What?" Franz Joseph asked Jerome Bonaparte.

"Why don't we make a gentleman's agreement!" said Jerome Bonaparte to Franz Joseph.

"What agreement?" Franz Joseph continued to ask.

"I can assure you that as long as the French Empire is still in the hands of me and my descendants, then France will never do anything to the Austrian Empire! Can you give me the same guarantee?" Jerome Bonaparte His face turned towards Franz Joseph seriously.

"I can also promise you!" Franz Joseph immediately responded to Jerome Bonaparte: "As long as France does not attack the Austrian Empire, then the Austrian Empire will also not attack the French Empire!"

"A high five for an oath?"

"Five high-fives for oath!"

Jerome Bonaparte's and Franz Joseph's hands pressed together.

After Jerome Bonaparte and Franz Joseph separated their hands, Prince Metternich praised: "What a sacred moment! I wish I could use oil painting to engrave this moment forever!"

Then, Jerome Bonaparte asked Franz Joseph if he would like to leave a portrait at the Tuileries Palace after the military parade.

Facing Jerome Bonaparte's gesture, Franz Joseph nodded in agreement without hesitation: "Of course!"

Jerome Bonaparte and Franz Joseph chatted while walking, and soon arrived at the Tuileries Palace.

…

June 24 at 4:45 am.

When the summer dawn just shrouded the earth, a force of nearly 10,000 people appeared near the Arc de Triomphe in a phalanx formation under the order of French Deputy Chief of Staff Niel.

At the end of this 10,000-strong army, there is also a corps of Russian imperial officers with a size of nearly 100. They are the prisoners of war captured by the French army in the Crimean Peninsula.

The group of Russian officers in uniform gray uniforms looked around numbly, and when their eyes turned to the Arc de Triomphe, their faces showed a wry smile.

Thirty-nine years ago, the senior members of the Russian Imperial Army arrived here as victors, and a sacred military parade was held here.

Thirty-nine years later, their younger generation will come here as prisoners of war and accept the onlookers and scolding of the Parisians.

About two hours later, residents living near the Arc de Triomphe began to gather.

At 8:30 a.m., a large crowd had gathered near the Arc de Triomphe.

At the same time, the police department under the Ministry of the Interior also took action. Hundreds of police officers gathered near the Arc de Triomphe. Under the order of the police chief Mopa, they formed a human wall together with the army. The parade venue is separated from the crowd to prevent someone maliciously breaking into it and causing damage to the parade.

Of course, the behavior of the Ministry of the Interior to set up a human wall made Parisians a little dissatisfied, because the distance between the human wall and the parade troops was more than 20 meters away from each other, which greatly affected the visual experience.

However, generally speaking, this dissatisfaction is just a verbal abuse, and has not caused a substantive conflict.

The residents standing outside the human wall were eagerly awaiting the arrival of Jerome Bonaparte and others.

At 9:20 in the morning, the parade platform was finally built after more than four hours of rushing by Niel (actually, the skeleton had been built the day before).

Jerome Bonaparte and others will review the French army on the parade. This is the first time the French Empire has shown itself in front of a foreign leader.

At 10 o'clock in the morning, the summer sun was scorching Paris, and Jerome Bonaparte arrived at the military parade venue with his wife Victoria, Franz Joseph and others.
