Make France Great Again

Chapter 764 Scored 2 Degrees

"I see!"

Princess Mathilde nodded and responded to Jerome Bonaparte, then left Jerome Bonaparte's study.

Jerome Bonaparte watched Princess Mathilde disappear behind the door, shook his head with a wry smile, and muttered in a low voice: "This guy Cavour is really too impatient!"

After saying that, Jerome Bonaparte also got up and left the study, and then found Mokar in the corridor on the second floor.

"Your Majesty, is there anything you need me to do for you?" Mokar asked Jerome Bonaparte respectfully.

"Mokar, you immediately order the kitchen to prepare! I am going to entertain distinguished guests tonight!" Jérôme Bonaparte ordered Mokar.

"I'll inform him right away!" Mokar bowed to Jérôme Bonaparte and replied, then turned and left.

Jerome Bonaparte, who was standing in the corridor, looked around for a moment, then turned and entered the study again.

As the emperor of the empire, he still has a lot of work to do.

At about 6:45 that night, a carriage stopped in the open space in front of the Tuileries Palace. Mokar, who was in charge of reception, quickly walked up the steps to the carriage.

The car door slowly opened, and Cavour, Prime Minister and Foreign Minister of the Kingdom of Sardinia, appeared in front of Mokar.

"Mr. Cavour, welcome to the Tuileries Palace!" Mokar said to the plump fat man in front of him without being humble or condescending.

"Manager Mokar, thank you for your hard work!" Cavour said to Mokar with a smile on his face, and then took advantage of the opportunity of the two parties being close to each other to quietly put the note into Mokar's pocket.

"Mr. Cavour, it's not hard! It's not hard!" The magic of money made Mokar, who was calm one second, put a smile on his face the next second, "Your Majesty specially ordered me to welcome you! "

"Where is your Majesty now?" Cavour asked Mokar.

"Your Majesty has taken his seat in the restaurant now!" Mokar replied to Cavour, "Let's go there quickly!"

"Director Mokar, I'll help you lead the way!" Cavour replied to Mokar with a slight nod.

Led by Mokar, Cavour soon entered the restaurant.

At this time, Jérôme Bonaparte was sitting at the dining table, gently shaking the scarlet wine in the glass with his right hand. The arrival of Cavour made him stop his movements, put down the glass in his hand, and quietly Look at Cavour.

"Your Majesty!" Cavour immediately bowed to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Mr. Cavour, sit down!" Jérôme Bonaparte stretched out his hand to invite Cavour to sit next to him.

Cavour took a solemn step and sat on the right side of Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Pour wine for Cavour!" Jérôme Bonaparte motioned to Mokar to pour wine for Cavour.

"No! Don't bother!" Cavour said, reaching for the wine bottle.

Jerome Bonaparte immediately stretched out his hand to interrupt Cavour's movement, and then said to Cavour: "Just leave this kind of matter to the servant! Mr. Cavour, you are the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Sardinia , your hands are used to handle complicated official duties, not to pour wine for others!"

Jérôme Bonaparte's words were like a needle stabbing into Cavour's heart. He thought that Cavour was also the Prime Minister of a country, but now he would fight with his servants to pour wine.

It’s really too shameful!

"Your Majesty, I..." Cavour wanted to say something, but didn't know what to say.

"Mr. Cavour, what I just described may be a little inaccurate, don't take it to heart!" Jérôme Bonaparte said the barbed words, "I personally think that a country's decision-makers should think most It is the problems a country is facing now and its future development!

Small tasks like pouring wine should be left to servants!

The reason why there are so many professions in our society is not to allow everyone to perform their duties.

Do you think I'm right? "

"Your Majesty, you are right!" Cavour said humbly to Jérôme Bonaparte, "I just couldn't recognize myself!"

"Mr. Cavour, you are too harsh on yourself!" Jérôme Bonaparte said to him in brisk words while quietly watching the servant pour red wine into Cavour's glass: " What’s wrong with this? It makes me look a bit old-fashioned when you say that!”

"I..." Cavour hesitated and looked at Jérôme Bonaparte.

After half a glass of wine was poured into Cavour's glass, the servant put down the wine bottle in his hand, took a few steps back, and stood quietly behind Jerome Bonaparte.

"Forget it! Forget it! Let's not talk about this!" Jerome Bonaparte shook his head, then raised his glass and said to Cavour: "Drink!"

Cavour picked up the wine glass and clinked it with Jérôme Bonaparte, then drank half the bottle of wine in the glass.

After finishing the aperitif, the door of the restaurant opened again, and servants carrying aluminum trays placed the delicacies in front of Jerome Bonaparte and Cavour.

Looking at the food on the table, Jérôme Bonaparte did not use the knife, but smiled and asked Cavour if he would like to hear him tell a little story.

"Your Majesty, this is my honor!" Cavour replied quickly.

Jerome Bonaparte told Cavour, "When I was very young, I stayed in the Kingdom of Württemberg. You should know this!"

"Your Majesty, I know!"

"At that time, our family was ostracized by the whole of Europe because of my uncle, Emperor Napoleon, and had no choice but to stay in the Kingdom of Württemberg! It can be said that I spent my whole life in the Kingdom of Württemberg from my birth to my adolescence. !" Jerome Anba's face showed a look of reminiscence, and Cavour, who was sitting aside, listened quietly to Jérôme Bonaparte's story.

"That's where I learned various rules and etiquette. Once, when I followed my mother to attend a royal family dinner, my mother severely punished me for doing something unethical before the meal. I was repaired!

At that time, not only did I not say anything until we had the meal, but she held me down and apologized to everyone present! "

"Your Majesty, your mother is really a woman of noble character!" Cavour praised.

"That's when I learned that everything must follow certain rules! Anyone who is unwilling to abide by the rules will end up in a mess!" Jérôme Bonaparte couldn't help but say in his voice. He became serious, "Do you understand?"

Only then did Cavour realize that Jérôme Bonaparte was implicitly scolding him for "disobeying" the rules. The meal His Majesty the Emperor invited him to eat was just for the sake of Princess Mathilde. superior.

"Your Majesty, I understand!" Cavour nodded solemnly.

"What do you understand?" Jérôme Bonaparte asked Cavour again.

"Your Majesty, I understand that you must abide by the rules in everything and not be too impatient!" Cavour replied to Jérôme Bonaparte.

"Mr. Cavour, as long as you understand!" A smile appeared on Jérôme Bonaparte's face, and he pointed at the food on the table and said, "Let's eat quickly! Otherwise, the food will get cold in a while. !”

Cavour and Jérôme Bonaparte were eating and talking. During this period, Jérôme Bonaparte discussed the current situation in Europe with Cavour. He told Cavour directly that it would not happen again in Europe in the near future. A bigger war!

If Cavour wished, the Kingdom of Sardinia could have its sights set on a vast colony.

Cavour told Jérôme Bonaparte that the navy of the Kingdom of Sardinia was unable to defend the interests of the colony.

"Don't worry about this, we are behind Sardinia!" Jérôme Bonaparte said to Cavour, "If the Kingdom of Sardinia has colonial intentions, the French Empire can serve as your strong backer. backing!

Let's join hands and work together! "

"Your Majesty, I will give you an answer after returning to the Kingdom of Sardinia!" Cavour said to Jerome Bonaparte.

If the French Empire is really willing to act as the protector of the Kingdom of Sardinia's expanded colonies, then colonization of Sardinia is not impossible!

After all, the Kingdom of Sardinia still has some capital in its hands.

In case the Kingdom of Sardinia really cannot shoulder the unification of Italy. Then learning Portugal is a wise choice.

Under the protection of the French Empire, Sardinia did not have to worry about being robbed of its colonies.

"Okay!" Jérôme Bonaparte nodded and said, "I look forward to your answer!"

The dinner lasted for nearly two hours. At the end of the dinner, Cavour left the Tuileries Palace under the personal farewell of Jérôme Bonaparte.

Looking at the back of Cavour's carriage leaving, Jérôme Bonaparte muttered in a low voice, "I want to see if you take the bait!"

After that, Jérôme Bonaparte turned around and entered the Tuileries Palace, and then said to Mokar with a half-smile, "Mokar, you have also received a lot of benefits from Cavour! Now there is nothing Do you want to say something?”

Mokar's face immediately turned pale, and he said to Jérôme Bonaparte in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, I can assure you that I just accepted his gift! I didn't tell him anything inside. !”

"I know!" Jérôme Bonaparte replied calmly, "Otherwise, you wouldn't be standing here talking to me! We, the king and his ministers, would be talking through the bars!"

"Your Majesty!" Mokar immediately handed over the bills in his pocket with both hands.

Jérôme Bonaparte held the bearer note in his hand, glanced at it sideways, and couldn't help but exclaimed: "100,000 francs! Cavour is so generous!"

Afterwards, Jérôme Bonaparte put the note back into Mokar's pocket and returned to the study.
