Chapter 1350 “White Flag”

In October 1789, Louis XVI held a banquet at the Palace of Versailles for the officers of the Flanders Brigade who came to protect the royal family. During the banquet, the officers wore the white cap badge of the Bourbon royal family to show their loyalty to the king.

This move became the trigger for the October Incident.

The blue and red colors are the symbols of the Paris city emblem. Shortly after the Bastille was captured on July 14, 1789, the President of the Constituent Assembly, Bailvey, Mayor of Paris, and Lafayette were the commanders of the National Guard. On July 17

On the same day, at the suggestion of Lafayette, the National Guard used the red, white and blue cap badge. On the same day, Mayor Bailly presented Louis XVI with the tricolor badge representing the National Guard's loyalty to the king at the Paris City Hall.

It was the first time that the French used the tricolor coat of arms.

On the Great Seal of the First Republic of France, there is a bare-chested "Statue of Liberty" wearing a Phrygian red hat and holding a spear. There is a leaping Gallic rooster above the little red hat.

Ordinary people affectionately called her Marianne when they saw the "Statue of Liberty" for the first time. There was a three-color ribbon around her neck, symbolizing the confidence, strength, equality, freedom and prosperity of the French Republic.

Except for the black swan necklace, Georgiana Fairy, who didn't wear any necklaces, now has a three-color ribbon around her neck. Coupled with the white dress of the same style as Mrs. Recamier, she almost looks like a

French women are no different.

But she didn't feel like the Statue of Liberty, instead she felt like a swan with its neck tied.

"Some people say that your shortcoming lies in your dissolute youth, while others say that your charm lies in your romantic youth. Both your charm and shortcomings are more or less appreciated by others, and your shortcomings become the beauty that adds to your charm." Napoleoni began to recite Shakespeare's poem "

The ring on the hand of the queen on the throne is the meanest gem and is respected by others. How many sheep will be tempted by wild wolves, if the wild wolf wears the face of a sheep."

"I just don't know how to respond to your letter with Shakespeare," she said softly.

"You are mine, and my glory will also belong to you." He looked at their reflections in the mirror and said in her ear, "I have never received such a reply from a woman."

"Maybe it's because French women don't read Shakespeare." She said humorously, "I haven't read Corneille and Racine."

"I heard Caprara talk about the chat between you and Sieyes that day." He said seriously, "We will never be able to see the whole situation, but no matter what the cost, we must always have a remedy."

"What do you want to say?"

"You are a woman, and you do not have a noble status. If you really can't find a place to run, just run to the church. Don't get caught like Marie Antoinette."

"What did you say?" She turned back and glared at him.

"The remedy." Leon continued to say seriously, "If one day I, like Louis XVI, don't have the power to protect you."

"Then don't be Louis XVI." She interrupted him, "I will not encourage you to run away, nor will I leave you alone to run away."

"I want you to live and raise my child." He gently stroked her cheek, "You will be a good mother."

"Maybe you are mistaken. I love men more than children, and my maternal love is not that abundant." She said honestly. "When I lost my child for the first time, I only thought about being with Severus.

I didn’t shed any tears for her.”

"she?"

"This is a characteristic of our race. We have no males." She said expressionlessly, "If we want to reproduce, we must find human males."

He laughed. "I like that."

Georgiana glared at him, "You are all a virtue."

"I can understand men's thoughts, but I don't understand women. Conquering women is much more difficult than conquering the world." He grabbed her hand, "There is still one ring left, what kind do you want?"

"No, thank you." She said calmly.

"You are good to me, and I want to be good to you too." He said softly, "Tell me what do you want?"

"I said I wanted a replica of Girl with a Pearl Earring, but you still got me the original. Do you know that doing so will affect diplomacy?"

"I know." He said proudly.

"Then you still do it?"

"I'm not as timid as you."

"You are the one who acts impulsively without thinking carefully at all!"

"What do you think I haven't thought carefully about?" he asked.

"The contract you signed with the church..."

"I just gave them the right to use it. The king's vassalage is based on the laws of the old era and has nothing to do with the new civil law." Bonaparte said confidently, "It was Sieyes who was far-fetched."

She was so angry that she lost the ability to think.

"Every monarch wants to be considered kind, not cruel, but you should not use kindness badly and pursue the reputation of kindness. You told me before that you would burn the face of Jeanne who stole the necklace. I

Thinking that you can use cruelty properly, why do you pursue kindness like Joseph?"

"This is an unnecessary conflict," she said frustratedly.

"If you want to be the best, why imitate just one person? Who else would you like to imitate besides Theodora?"

"I never thought about it."

"I admire Charlemagne, Caesar, Attila, Tamburlaine, these figures are not to be underestimated, Francesco Sforza became the Duke of Milan because he armed himself, and his sons

Escaping the hardships of the military and being demoted from a duke to a commoner, my son..."

"Isn't it too early for you to say this?" she said listlessly, "Are you discussing with me the education of the next generation?"

"Do you know what happened to me today? Those bankers actually begged me. I used to ask them to set up more branches in other places and use more credit, but they refused. I said I wanted to use a foreign bank, but they told me

To protect its own interests, Britain is also planning to set up a warehouse for French wine. Houvral bought two million quintals of wheat from Spain at 26 francs per quintal. I can't believe it went so smoothly. It feels like a fake.

of."

"Does Spain also want to raise funds?"

"How do I know? Speculators are always fabricating false news. In order to increase cotton prices, they lie that Britain has blocked Lisbon. Now that the Portuguese port is in our hands, let's see who can spread rumors."

She didn't want to undermine Napoleon's self-confidence, but could the French navy break through the British navy's blockade?

"Paris is devouring the provinces. As long as you leave Paris, you will feel lifeless. Paris can publish 92 kinds of pamphlets a week. The provinces rarely publish pamphlets, and there are no newspapers at all." He took out his pipe, lit it with a flint, and after a while, he slowly exhaled.

"French is a foreign language to half of the French people. Except for Paris, no city has a population of more than 100,000. The residential areas are very scattered. Because of the Revolution, the nobles who hid in the countryside lived a boring life."

It’s very boring. Entertaining guests is the only entertainment. I thought you would write to me and beg me when you went to the countryside. If I didn’t write to you, would you really plan to live there? "

"The place I lived in before was more desolate than the monastery you sent me to. There was only one village around, and it was surrounded by rolling mountains." She said calmly, "I am used to that kind of place, but I think Paris is too noisy."

"Have you ever heard that proverb?"

"What proverb?"

"Berg und tal komen nicht zusammen, wohlaber die menschen."

"What does this sentence mean?"

"Mountains don't meet mountains, people always meet each other." He said with a smirk, "I heard that there are many blond beauties in Germany."

"Do you also like Aryan girls?" she said with a cold face.

"Maybe I'll meet a beautiful blonde." He said proudly.

But Georgiana thought of the Polish woman, who was indeed blonde.

"Okay, no more." He may have noticed something unusual about her and immediately coaxed her.

"If you have another woman in the future, can you let me go to other provinces?" She said calmly, "And take off my shackles."

He stared at her with a cold face.

"I don't think I can be Medea, I'm not that person."

"What if I want to see you?"

"I……"

"Sies said I am the most cunning person, but I think you are the most cunning. You are still a cold-blooded British woman at heart, but you pretend to be very kind. Don't think that you always treat me like this, and I can't do anything to you.

!" He pointed to his chest, "You can be jealous and hate me, but you can't pretend that nothing happened. I told you, how do you treat me and how do I treat Britain? Don't think that you will only tear up the peace treaty.

,I can do it too!”

She opened her mouth, but no sound came out.

"I just feel better today, so you are going to make me suffer again. If a woman is bad, she is worse than a man. A woman is either much better than a man, or much worse than a man. Do you think I will be as proud as Colbert?"

Are you going to kill me?" He slapped the table and stood up, "Your heart is more vicious than Medea's."

"Don't be angry." She quickly reached for his hand, but was thrown away.

"Sometimes you are really not as good as Josephine." He said coldly, "Is your heart made of stone?"

"Then you still mess with me!" she yelled sharply, and then started crying.

"Oh, you still cry." He said sarcastically, "I thought you were made of ice."

She beat that bastard hard, but was easily controlled by him.

"That's right, that's right. Even if you beat me up, it will be better than what you did just now." He smiled and said, "I heard that the Scots are very barbaric. You are just an uncivilized barbaric woman."

She opened her mouth and bit his arm, but he laughed even harder.

"You still want to fight with your strength?"

"Do you dare to take off my shackles!"

"I don't understand." The Corsican bastard said with an arrogant look on his face. She was so angry that she wanted to beat him up again.

"Do you know what the most popular fabric in Frankfurt is? It's your Scottish gingham. You can show me your kilt once."

"No!" she said sternly, "Why are you dressing me up like this?"

"Party, the generals want to see you." He smiled proudly. "Are you afraid?"

She directly took his arm and walked away aggressively, and conveniently tore off the French three-color ribbon around her neck.

"Fuck Statue of Liberty," she cursed in English.

Napoleon was very happy now. He laughed all the way and was not afraid of losing his temper.
