Chapter 1395 Extremely Smart
Chapter 1396 Female Dandy
According to the provisions of the Treaty of Amiens, Britain must recognize those newly established republics, so this time the British Sir Merry also came to the inauguration ceremony of the Southern Alpine Republic of Napoleon.
He was responsible for liaison with France until the official British minister was sent, and he was the civilian official who watched with Thomas Granite as Lucien Bonaparte smashed his porcelain cup in anger.
He was very good at calming down the atmosphere and spoke very carefully. This attitude made Napoleon very happy, so he asked the envoy secretary to follow him to Lyon.
If a woman wants to accomplish something, she must do it no matter what.
Clothes made of woolen fabrics are very stiff and warm, making them very suitable for winter wear. On the contrary, silk fabrics are suitable for hot summer days and indoor wear.
How many people can afford such an expensive fabric like silk?
Comparatively speaking, woolen fabrics are relatively "middle-class" and can be afforded by ordinary people as long as their per capita income increases. This was the case with American car companies in the past. Only those who could afford cars could afford to pay their workers higher wages.
Funds cannot be stored in banks or buried in the ground. They must be liquid to become wealth.
She didn't want to compete with Josephine for the limelight. She came to work. The British textile industry competed with France. She behaved like a lovable person but others suspected her intentions.
The "battle uniform" she finally chose was similar to the style worn by young men from London. It was easy to copy. The tailor only had to make it according to the style of Mr. Merry's clothes and slightly change the size.
The difficult thing is to convince Napoleon to change his hair style. It is definitely not easy to convince him just by saying "I think you look good with long hair".
Girls will cut their hair when they are lovelorn, as if they have broken off from the past. Napoleon's change of hairstyle is equivalent to a change of mentality. He mentioned it in a letter to Joseph: I plan to avoid the world and live alone for the winter, because I have seen through it.
I am already thirty years old. Years of fighting have made me look down on all the glory and halo. I have spent my youth and years squandering. Now, I just want to keep my dignity.
This is what Joseph's wife Jasmine told Georgiana privately. Napoleon's family hated Josephine to the point that even if Georgiana was a British female spy, they supported her and defeated Josephine.
But Josephine was a woman who had seen the world. She knew that Britain and France were negotiating a peace treaty and that Napoleon's closeness to Georgiana might have a political purpose. Therefore, she did not send her female companion to accompany him like she did with other women around Napoleon.
Set up a "isolation zone". But she had previously sent a group of slender blonde girls to the Grand Trianon Palace as maids, and Sophie was selected by Georgiana.
She said that she had taken the medicine, and Napoleoni believed her. It was impossible to say that he had no thoughts at all. Unfortunately, Georgiana was not a supporter of polygamy. Since he chose to go home, then Georgiana left voluntarily,
6 million is enough for an ordinary person to spend several lifetimes.
She didn't have the nerve to look for Severus. She planned to find a place to hide in seclusion without anyone else.
The prerequisite is that he unties the shackles on her feet, otherwise she has no magic power and will be easily "purged" by the Purifier.
Divorce would kill Josephine. As long as she didn't divorce, even if Napoleon had an affair with another woman, she would just break them up and not force Napoleon to promise not to make a mistake next time.
It is very simple for an ordinary woman to ask a man to stop smoking and drinking. After all, he will not do anything to her.
If Georgiana is accused of espionage, she may be executed at any time, but any powerful man does not like someone to control him, and the taste of a constitutional monarch will definitely not have the freedom of an absolute monarchy.
She doesn't have Newt Scamander's ability to make wild animals obey with her own affinity. She can only make him change by holding an animal taming whip in one hand and a reward in the other.
She must be very careful not to let him see her purpose, otherwise he will not be the gentle Leon.
She wants a solid, profitable peace that allows the common people to live a somewhat peaceful life. She will feel very peaceful when she sees the scene of living and working in peace and contentment. This may be different from the happiness some women pursue, but she doesn't care anymore.
Since Louis XVI stopped building roads for the sake of his reputation for kindness, which eventually led to peasant riots, then she would build roads, and not rely on the cost-effective feudal model of servitude.
France used magistrates internally, but Napoleon used the enfeoffment system after he became emperor. Sooner or later, problems would arise, as was the case with the 30-year-old "ancient man".
Besides, Napoleon still has a successor, and how he handles the subsequent issues is also his political achievement, which can be recorded in the annals of history in the future. Delmid is related to Napoleon by blood, and Napoleon is his godfather, so adoption will be more convenient.
But in this way, the three-year-old boy became Joseph Bonaparte's competitor. This may be the reason why Jasmine did not "accompany" Georgiana this time.
When it comes to some practical issues, personal feelings can be put aside. This is how a person slowly becomes a political animal, and eventually the cold politics flows in his veins.
Napoleon naively thought that the marriage of a hereditary noble was similar to the marriage of ordinary people. After getting married, having a ceremony, and having a child, did he have to have feelings for him?
It is better to keep Josephine than to find such a German woman. At least she still has true feelings for Napoleon.
"Where are you going to go wearing this?"
Georgiana turned around and saw the First Consul standing at the door wearing the green marshal's uniform, looking at the black men's clothing she was wearing.
"I want to meet those Italian representatives." She fastened the silver buttons on her cuffs. "I need money."
"1.2 billion is not a small number."
"I didn't plan to raise so much money at once. I raised the money for road construction first." She pulled the pleats on her coat. "How do I look?"
"You look like Lucien." He smiled and said, "I really wish I had a sister like you."
"I have a gift for you." She brought over a box with a ribbon.
Napoleoni came in and took the box.
After tearing off the ribbon, there was an Arab-style hat and a light gray two-piece Arabic men's suit inside.
"Try it, Sinbad." She said humorously, "The desert is like an ocean that you can step on."
"You won't laugh at me?" he asked, lowering his head.
"If it doesn't look good, let's change it. Isn't that why tailors exist?"
He put the clothes on the table casually.
Then he took her hand and gently squeezed the back of her hand.
"Why did you do that?"
"I want you to regain your confidence and believe in love again."
He didn't speak.
"you are not happy?"
"We just had a quarrel," he whispered. "This is the first time we have quarreled over issues other than financial issues."
"for what?"
"She asked me whose bed I wanted to sleep in." He looked up at Georgiana. "What do you think?"
This is their second day in Lyon. They arrived in Lyon at midnight the day before.
Under the mayor's arrangement, they stayed in the former palace of the Bishop of Lyon, where Napoleon's uncle Fish lived.
Through Napoleon's relationship, Fish not only became a cardinal, but also became the Archbishop of Paris. However, this position was currently stolen by Caprara, and Fish was sent by Napoleon to Rome as an ambassador.
"She is your legal wife. I remember you told me that you would not abandon the woman who treats you well just because you have become a great person."
"You didn't react like that last time." He kissed the back of her hand, "How about we dance a song?"
"I can wear men's clothes." She said with a silly smile.
"You want to see me wearing women's clothes?" he said with a smile.
She refused again and danced without music again.
"On January 25th, I will review the troops returning from Egypt. You come with me." He said softly, "You don't need to participate in other entertainment."
"Should I wear men's clothes?" she said jokingly.
"I heard that you just accepted a piece of jewelry." He raised his eyebrows and looked at her, "What are you going to do with it?"
"Oh, he expected it." Georgiana exclaimed.
"Talleyrand is a talent. He is always right, except last time." Napoleoni said.
"You still want to use him?"
"If you come back, I will. If you don't come back, I will send him to that hell where yellow fever is raging." He said with a smile, "And I won't give him opium wine."
The smile on her face solidified.
"Wear nice clothes and let them know that the expedition was worth it." He said softly, "They helped me get the Moon Goddess."
"Then do you know that the Moon God only meets the shepherds in dreams?"
"Close your eyes and pretend that we are dreaming now." He said like coaxing a child.
But she did it anyway.
Just like he said, when all this is a dream, wasting time in a dream...
