conspiracy! The queen smelled a strong smell of conspiracy, and she saw clearly that now these opponents have finally shown their ferocious fangs.
The Republicans, the workers' left and the chaotic nationalists, these three huge waves of forces have magically united in everything, taking advantage of this damn war to force the emperor into palace!
Which faction does Thiers represent? On the surface, he is a republican, but looking at the people outside who are cooperating with him today, the queen knows that the other two factions must have reached a secret deal with Thiers.
The purpose is too clear. These traitors want to put aside their disputes and jointly force the emperor to marry. They first gave up their political demands and began to choose pragmatism. The real purpose of these bastards is to establish an army of their own within the empire. armed forces.
Queen Eugenie suddenly remembered a joke in European diplomatic circles, which was a shameless attack on the Bonaparte family by a group of sinister people.
Many people say that Napoleon III was a dictator. He ruled the French Empire with 500,000 private troops, 500,000 officials and 200,000 black troops.
The black army is talking about those priests wearing Catholic robes! These Catholic monks, who took orders from the Vatican, desperately advocated for the emperor's rule. Especially in rural areas, these people were very powerful.
Why did Napoleon III station troops in the Vatican? Because this was a deal between him and the Pope, France provided powerful military power to suppress the unified power of the Italian states and frighten their armies.
What they want to do is let the Pope rule Rome and Italy forever!
The Pope reciprocated the favor and tried every means to put a halo on Napoleon III's head and help him win the hearts of the people!
The 1.2 million people who were loyal to Napoleon III were the foundation of his rule of this empire, and those people were all his minions!
How many working class uprisings have been suppressed by these people? If all the people who died over the years were pushed into the Seine River, it would probably stop the flow of the river.
There are also countless republicans who have been exiled, imprisoned, deported, and even shot!
Today, these people finally come together. They have learned to be extremely cunning through years of struggle. They actually want to take advantage of the empire's crisis to form the National Guard!
Damn it, you don’t even know who this army belongs to! They are the army of the empire in name, but those people can only listen to their leader.
There are half a million ambitious troops beside the bed? The queen doesn’t want to see this nightmare-like scene!
But how should I reject these people? The excuses they used were high-sounding, for the empire, to resist aggression, to save the war situation... these excuses were simply impossible to refuse!
What's more, they didn't say they wanted to overthrow the emperor. They just said they would add the National Guard to the empire's army. In name, this was still the emperor's army!
This kind of trick to hide the truth is already considered a conspiracy, and it is a conspiracy that is difficult to resolve!
The queen bit her lip and said nothing. She looked at Thiers coldly, but the congressman with flashing eyes and a treacherous expression was not afraid and just looked at the queen calmly!
Queen Eugenie was so anxious that her heart was burning with anger. He kept scolding his damn husband!
"You idiot! With an army of 250,000, you can't even draw, and you actually lost two games in a row! Your incompetence puts me under pressure!"
"Trash, you are a trash!"
"After all, you and the Prussians are confronting each other at the border! At any rate, we can't let the enemies burn and kill them in our border! What do you want me to do? You ask me to supervise the country, how can I supervise the country?"
"Idiot, you have given me too much trouble!"
Swearing in your mind was not the solution to the problem. Queen Eugénie was considered a veteran in politics and made her decision within a few minutes.
"Thiers! Your request is not something I can decide. France still has a parliament. Can an army of 500,000 people be formed? When will it be formed? In what way will it be formed? How to determine the number... These issues should not be left to our dictatorship. !”
"You can write a text bill and bring it to the parliament for discussion!"
"Huh? Queen, are you telling the truth?" Thiers was stunned for a moment and thought to himself, is the queen crazy today? Actually kicked the ball to the parliament, to our territory?
You must know that the full name of France is the Second French Empire! This is a country with a monarchical dictatorship. The earliest parliament was abolished by Napoleon III. This was only restored in recent years due to excessive domestic pressure.
The French Parliament does not have any real power at the moment. Even if they can pass various bills, the actual official departments will not pay attention to them.
The Ministry of Finance will not listen to them, the Military Ministry will not listen to them, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ministry of Education, etc. will not listen to them... These actual government departments still listen to the emperor's words.
So the parliament is just a decoration at this moment, a typical place for quarrels!
And this parliament without any real power naturally became a gathering place for all kinds of people who opposed the emperor, such as republicans, leftists, liberal nationalists... They gathered together to have wars of words every day.
Today the Queen actually said that she would send this bill to the Parliament for discussion? Isn’t this asking for trouble? How could this bill to establish the National Guard not be passed by Parliament? How could you say no?
Thiers was a little confused about what kind of medicine the Queen was selling in the gourd. He asked carefully, "Queen...if the parliament passes it, can you pass it? Isn't it a delaying tactic to delay the war?"
Eugenie looked at him with a sneer, "You are all able to organize a demonstration of 500,000 people. If I play tricks, the 500,000 people will probably riot tomorrow, right?"
"You are the ones who want democracy. Now that we have democracy for you, you are still hesitant? Then what do you want?"
Thiers couldn't help but smile when he heard the Queen's scolding, "The Queen is right, I did something wrong in this matter. I will draft the document immediately when I get back!"
"Wait a minute!" The Queen looked at him coldly, "Kill all these people outside! Since I am sincere again, you must also show your sincerity!"
Thiers frowned and shook his head, "I'm really sorry, I don't have that much ability. The anger in the hearts of these people cannot be calmed down by me as a member of the parliament..."
"You have got what you want, what else do you want to do? Do you want to completely destroy France during the national crisis?" The queen's voice was as sharp as a crazy woman!
Thiers looked bitter, "Queen, please calm down... Please calm down... I also want to solve the problem, but these people always need something to calm their anger!"
"Now you just agreed to discuss it in the parliament instead of immediately agreeing to their request! So the anger in their hearts has not been vented!"
"You should know...people...especially hundreds of thousands of people get together, they will become emotional animals. This cannot be solved by just one or two people talking!"
