Chapter 1352 The Forgotten Dahlia

 Chapter 1353 Voters and Abandoned People

Georgiana ordered someone to place the Recamier lounge chair in the church library. She felt that only by lying here could she think about the answers to certain questions.

However, after she lay down here, she didn't think about anything. Her mind was blank, except for the thought of repentance.

So she sent someone to find Caprara. While waiting, she stared at the mural on the ceiling in a daze.

Leon asked her to find other women to be her role models. After much thought, she decided that even if she did not find a good role model to learn from, she should not learn from those bad examples. Those in the previous dynasty such as Madame Dubarry and Madame Pompidou were examples.

.

There is also a precedent of "female chicken Si Chen" in ancient China. Maybe she interfered too much in government affairs.

Georgiana felt that she should know Mrs. Starr better than Josephine. She asked Sophie to find the works written by that woman and start analyzing and reading them. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle:

When the laws of society can neither punish parents who abuse their authority nor punish misbehaving husbands or wives, but only prohibit divorce, then the laws are only harsh on the victims and only shackles the victims. This kind of society seems to

In saying "I can't guarantee your happiness, but I can at least make your misfortune last."

It seems that Mrs. Starr, like Georgiana, is also a woman who is opposed to the current divorce law.

I just don’t know if she ever thought that Napoleon Bonaparte, who made this law, was also a victim of marriage.

Mrs. Starr's understanding of the pressure of public opinion is also different from Georgiana's understanding.

Delphine fell in love with the aristocratic young man Leonce, but the latter was already unhappy that Delphine's cousin Matilda was engaged. After the two attracted each other, Leonce decided to regret the engagement, and Delphine also asked Matilda.

Erda's mother, Mrs. Fannon, revealed her true feelings and asked her to come true.

However, before things came to pass, Mrs. Alwant caused a scandal in her home, which caused an uproar in the public opinion. Many people who did not know the truth pointed the finger at Delphine. Mrs. Vernon secretly instigated Delphine to protect her daughter's interests. Lyons was heartbroken and married.

She married Delphine's cousin, and although the misunderstanding was resolved, due to the legal prohibition of divorce, the two could only look at each other from a distance, either in love or politeness.

After reading this story, Georgiana could only describe it as ridiculous. Delphine was like Lewinsky without wearing a blue dress. She told the secret to the wrong person, which ultimately led to herself becoming the target of public criticism. The focus of Mrs. Starr's attention

But there is the issue of not being able to divorce. Delphine is like an extramarital affair who pesters a man to divorce and then marries herself. Only Leons knows that those rumors are all misunderstandings. Delphine's reputation has been ruined, and there will be no

If another man marries her, she has no other choice, right?

Why did she ask Matilda's mother to "accomplish her"? Matilda, who had been robbed of her husband, would definitely resent Delphine. With Matilda's mother's forgiveness, could they still be sisters?

Napoleoni was now a target, everyone hated him and hoped that he would die soon, so much so that even the slightest words of concern from Georgiana about his life and death were taken as love words by him.

She hoped to introduce people with moral character and ability to the court, but Mr. Martin was not who she thought he was. Bonnefort had already occupied Lyon, and Martin seemed to want to swallow up Strasbourg's trade routes as well.

Look at how capable he is. First he exempted France from taxing German raw silk, and now he wants to drive the Jews out of Alsace. Fortunately, Napoleon is not Louis XV. Women can do whatever they say, but this kind of person uses

I feel really tired when I get up.

She wanted to trust someone so that she would not be so tired, but it was written in The Prince that if a monarch completely trusts people and lacks other preparations, he will perish.

It is a woman's nature to want to find someone to rely on. It was not easy for her to go smoothly today, but trouble soon appeared.

She cried sadly, not because of the nonsense story written by Mrs. Starr, but because of the increasingly hopeless future. Napoleoni used to say that priests are better than dreamers. She originally disagreed a little, but now she

Started to agree.

Mrs. Starr is an idealist. Georgiana's understanding of marriage is to find a man who does not forget his old relationship and will not abandon his wife just because he has become great, and to steadily support him in realizing his dreams.

But there are fewer and fewer such men.

Why get married? If you don't get married, there will be no issue of divorce, and there will be no need for a woman like Mrs. Starr, who doesn't even understand her own position, to protest.

Her husband is Swedish, and French law has no control over Swedes.

She can divorce at any time she wants, and Georgiana wishes her family to break up soon.

Later she would find out about Mrs. Starr's life in Paris, and then write a letter to Starr Hussein describing it so that he could write a divorce declaration.

No woman would tolerate a place like a salon, especially one run by her own wife. There was no need for the military police to arrest and hang her.

By the way, Georgiana was also able to eliminate Leon's political enemy, Benjamin Gonsdang.

This man is also Swiss, and he still has Napoleoni's intuition.

She cleared her mind and just asked Sophie to let Gordan, who loved writing scripts, handle the matter when Caprara came.

This is the advantage of the court confessor. Even if the church is closed, she can still find the priest.

"May the Lord bless you." Caprara made the sign of the cross at Georgiana, and she subconsciously avoided it.

"I have a question for you, father." Georgiana asked calmly, "What do you think of the Jews?"

Caprara raised an eyebrow "Can I ask why?"

"I want to do the right thing and help people in need return to a normal life." Georgiana said anxiously, "But some people add insult to injury when others are in need of help, and use loan sharking to take away other people's property..."

"The Jews are very different from us," Caprala said. "Have you read their Talmud?"

"I know Kabbalah," said Georgiana.

"That is very profound knowledge."

"It's not as difficult as you think." She said coldly, "Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden were like pets. As long as they obeyed their master's orders, they could be carefree. In the world outside the Garden of Eden, they became stray dogs. They

You have to find food and build your own house, and you can no longer be carefree."

"What are your options?"

"The truth," she said coldly, "even if it is cruel."

"I thought you chose family. I saw the temperament of a mother in you."

"Don't say I'm Mary," she said in disgust, "Have you ever seen a Virgin like me?"

"The loan sharking didn't harm your interests, so why are you so angry?"

"They're getting in my way!"

“The kingdom of heaven is like a net cast into the sea, gathering all kinds of water creatures. When the net is full, people pull it ashore and pick out the good ones and put them into vessels and throw away the bad ones. So it will be like this at the end of the world. The angels will

Come out and separate the wicked from the righteous and throw them into the furnace of fire..."

"I don't want to hear the New Testament." Georgiana interrupted Caprara directly.

"But you told me that you like the story of the Prodigal Son, which is also in the New Testament." Caprara said, "You only want to hear what you want to hear?"

Georgiana calmed down.

"Calvin believes that God divides people into elect and outcasts. The elect get rich, everything goes well, and go to heaven after death, while the outcasts are on the contrary. Disasters are God's for those who do not rely on moral character, but only get rich through hard work.

Gift, how can you only look at the Jews and not think about the Protestants?"

"I did not expect."

"What would you do if Protestants were involved in loan sharking?"

"I don't know..." she said irritably.

"The Jews clearly distinguish between natives and Gentiles. They refuse to integrate into the same society. They will not lend usury to natives. Before leaving Rome, I hesitated whether to go to London first or to Paris. Then I came

When I got here, I felt the atmosphere of integration in France. A nation that refuses to integrate is doomed to be excluded when it comes to a country that wants to integrate. The power of love is the key to opening the door of God's heaven. Encouraging good and reducing evil can bring people together.

To bring you closer to God, you don’t need to wait until the angels come on the Day of Judgment to select you and take you to heaven.”

"How do you know I'm going to heaven?"

"You showed me heaven, and Madame de Staal showed me hell." Caprara looked at the books scattered on the ground and said, "She was also in the palace on the day Paris citizens poured into Versailles."

"What was she doing there?"

"She is the wife of the Swedish ambassador to France, and she is also the daughter of the financial director." Caprara said calmly. "The king was relieved to see Lafayette. At that time, there was a chaos in the palace. Some people suggested running away, and some people suggested that the king

Going to Paris, the Duke of Lyoncourt helped Necker regain power. They planned to send the king from Versailles to Paris, but they were blocked by the crowd. If the Duke of Orleans had dispersed the crowd, the king would not lose everything, but La

One of Fayette's soldiers said that he saw the Duke of Orleans standing on the throne of the Prince Regent, almost within touching distance of the ground."

"How do you know?"

"That man, like you, came to confess." Caprara said. "Later, when the National Guard arrived, his chance was gone. Lafayette could not prove that the Duke planned to conspire to usurp the throne that day, and what happened next

You know it too."

Georgiana nodded.

"Mrs. Starr once attended a dinner party with Mrs. Recamier. A young man happened to be sitting between them. The young man said proudly, 'I am now between wisdom and beauty.' If it were you,

What would you say."

"I won't say anything."

"Mrs. Starr said, 'It's true, but you can't get any of it.'"

"Oh my God." Georgiana exclaimed. "It's so terrible."

Caprara smiled strangely and did not express any opinion.

"I suddenly feel that it is not that difficult to persuade loan sharks to do good." Georgiana murmured, "I can't believe it."

"I can help you." Caprara said with a smile, "Just like the First Consul did in Italy, first persuade and then use force."

"It's the law."

"Jews will not break a contract easily. This is part of their teachings." Caprara looked at the books on the bookshelf. "In order to fulfill the contract, they can put aside their morality."

"Then how do you get them to give up the contract?" Georgiana asked.

"Breaking a contract will result in retaliation. Only those who fulfill their promises can live a happy life. We must make them feel that only by breaking the contract can they live a happy life."

"How can this be?"

"There is no impossibility in Napoleon's dictionary." Caprara picked a book and opened it. "Everything can be changed. Impossibility can only be found in the dictionary of mediocre people."

"Have you also begun to imitate his speech?"

"Look for it quickly, daughter." Caprara said easily, "Happiness is the greatest expression of personal value. Isn't this the reason why you are nostalgic for this land?"

"How do you know?"

Caprara didn't answer her, so Georgiana went to look for a book on her own.
