Chapter 1383 Under the Sounding Organ
Chapter 1384 “Bastards”
In the old days, there were many Catholics in France and they had many children. This led to the miraculous thing that a 30-year-old young man had a 20-year-old cousin.
Generally speaking, those who are recommended to take charge of affairs will be those who are highly respected or older. Those who can represent the family of the host at a young age are usually those who have read books or have "seen the market." The excited young man looks very...
He is gentle and looks like he has read books. Such readers are often ashamed of the church, superstition and the dark Middle Ages.
There are many reasons for girls to die at a young age, such as accidents, or they are trapped in love and commit suicide because of the sudden thought. But this time, the girl who caused the trouble, Elizabeth, died of tuberculosis.
This was also the reason why the cemetery lacked management. All the townspeople who died of severe infectious diseases were buried there. Later, some unnamed people and suicides were also buried here, and gradually it became a place similar to
The place for mass graves.
Elizabeth was buried in late autumn. Her mother had not yet gotten used to the life of losing her daughter. She occasionally visited the cemetery. Later, she found that Elizabeth's grave had been dug up and the body inside was unknown.
The old woman did not feel that her daughter had come back to life. She immediately saw the British people living in the military camp next door. She intuitively believed that this must be the work of these outsiders.
People who were so excited forgot to call the police to deal with this matter. What's more, the vast majority of French people do not think that the police serve them. The "favorite concubine" Georgiana is British. How can the people in power seek justice for them?
?So there was a scene where the townspeople were about to break into a British town to search.
Since the war between Britain and France in 1792, Britain has not sent a minister to France, and the rights of British expatriates in France are completely unprotected.
According to normal procedures, she should have directly told the French people to call the police, so that the British fellows would not even have to pay the compensation.
But just like Britain's Indian trade and charter, she used a "circular route". The French's resistance was not so strong, and the antagonism caused by this conflict could be slowly resolved.
The issue of digging graves was not included in the new Civil Code, so she borrowed Salic law only when there was no way to follow it.
This may cause other disputes and problems, but that will happen later. For the British and French skirmishers, the tombstone is a shelter, and if they open fire, the situation will be out of control.
In August last year, when Georgiana was still struggling with relationship problems, a big event happened in Turin, Italy, which shocked the whole of Europe. A French army rushed into a fortress defended by Italians, completely ignoring the fortress.
The French flag hung on it killed the Italian commander responsible for defending the fortress.
Napoleon was so angry that he disbanded the French army and at the same time transferred the Italian garrison to Portugal. The original Piedmont region was garrisoned by the French army that had withdrawn from the Papal States, but regardless of Gaston
Businessmen like Martin and Caprara all agreed that it was inappropriate for Jourdan to continue to be governor of Piedmont.
Bernadotte once had the experience of leading an army and serving as a diplomatic envoy, but his performance was shrouded in the shadow of Napoleon, and his work as an envoy in Vienna was interrupted when an Austrian mob attacked the French Embassy.
After Napoleon defeated the army of the Papal States, the Directory hoped that he would annex the Papal States. However, Napoleon signed a peace treaty with Pope Pius VI without notifying Commissioner Clark or asking the Directory for instructions.
The governors regretted conferring military power on him.
Compared to other civil and military officials, Caprara prefers Bernadotte. Handling the affairs of the ceramics factory is difficult for a sword-wielding man, but he and those rich people who feel that they should enjoy privileges if they are rich
They got along fairly well, and in Caprara's opinion, he did it even better than Napoleon.
Caprara wanted Bernadotte to serve as governor of Piedmont, but he did not submit the terms of the exchange, and then he boarded the carriage and returned to Paris.
Not long after Caprara's carriage drove out, an Englishman came over to greet her. Georgiana looked at a simple-looking carriage not far away, and Thomas Granit's face was covered with mist.
is vaguely visible behind the glass.
Georgiana walked over and got on the carriage, but the carriage did not drive away. The most handsome former British Prime Minister in history stared at her again with his loving eyes.
She looked very uncomfortable and turned around subconsciously.
"I'm glad you're wearing it," Granite said softly.
"Let's get down to business." Georgiana said coldly, "Will the Navy go to war this time?"
Granite leaned forward and got closer to her, and the leather sofa made a slight creaking sound due to his movements.
"You look like you're in mourning right now," Granite said. "Who are you in mourning for?"
"I don't think I need to answer your question." She said after thinking for a long time.
"You seem to like asking people if they know someone. Do you know who Nelson is?" Granite asked again.
"Horatio Nelson, captain of the HMS Victory," said Georgiana.
At the same time, he is also the soul of the British Royal Navy and was selected as one of the 100 greatest British figures in the 20th century, she said in her heart.
"I wrote to him and told him to be careful with the ice," Granite whispered. "The water in Amsterdam is much colder than in the Caribbean."
"What if the sea freezes..."
"I don't want to bear the stigma of making peace with France, but I don't want to bear the stigma of being timid. Since my friend wants to take the risk, all I can do is save his life. Unlike Napoleon, we don't need to
Victory to win the love of the people." Granite interrupted Georgiana, "He is so eager to be loved, even if this love comes from a woman from the enemy country."
Georgiana didn't know what to say.
"He still has a good eye for women. You are really a stunning beauty when you dress up." Granite smiled and said, "I really like the way you looked down on all living beings just now. You really look like a queen."
"Thank you for the compliment." she said politely.
"According to the information provided by your husband, Denmark shipped a shipload of American goods to France, which contained saltpeter. Will the saltpeter be used in this naval battle?"
"Maybe those saltpeters thrown into the sea won't freeze."
"That's because you don't know how cold the sea water is now." Granite said. "The water injected by the freshwater river will freeze when it is not too cold in winter, and areas affected by the North Atlantic Ocean Current will freeze even in severe winter."
Without ice, the tides are complicated, big waves and storms can occur at the same time, and no one but God knows the outcome."
"Are you going to pray to God?"
"As long as it can bring him victory, he will believe in either the God of War or Muhammad, with the exception of God." Granite said, "Is it because he needs to wear the crown on his head?"
"I don't know," Georgiana said coldly, "There are a lot of things he didn't tell me."
"British women never avoid participating in politics. You should appear in public more often."
"I think you are mistaken, Diamond Boy. After experiencing the lessons of the previous dynasty, Napoleon does not like women to interfere in politics."
"You should remind him at the right time that we have stopped providing military assistance to Portugal," Granite said.
"He's not here now, how can I remind him?" She folded her legs impatiently. "I'm not very familiar with the affairs of the parliament. Can you teach me?"
"Let's change the time and place. It's time for you to go, madam." Granite opened the car door, cold air blew in, and Georgiana got out of the carriage.
"When will the next ambassador arrive? Is he the one who was at the party with us last time?" Georgiana asked outside the car.
Granite closed the car door in her face.
She watched the simple carriage drive away, feeling incredible.
Why did all the men run away when she became a stunning beauty?
"What the hell." Georgiana murmured and walked towards her carriage.
Fortunately, she still has a little lover Demilde, maybe she can ask Madam Montesquieu to come and enlighten him.
