Chapter 584: Killing


"Rebecca, sit down and rest" As he spoke, Napoleon pulled Rebecca from behind him to the front, looking at the beautiful and shy girl in front of him, Napoleon was in a trance, as if the Rebecca in front of him had become the Queen Mary he had admired since childhood.

Seeing the love in Napoleon's eyes, Rebecca lowered her head shyly.

Whether Napoleon really loves herself or not, Rebecca sometimes feels a little skeptical, although Napoleon is considerate to her, and can even say that Napoleon is willing to do everything to satisfy her as long as Rebecca has a request.

But Rebecca also knew that she was just a substitute for a woman, as evidenced by Napoleon's inadvertent call out Queen Mary's name during a time when the two looked at each other affectionately.

Although the French army could be said to be respectful to Rebecca under Napoleon's constraints, some gossip still reached Rebecca's ears, and these gossips were undoubtedly an insult to Rebecca.

The man in front of him, he has countless halos on his body, he can change the situation in the whole of Europe, but he does not belong to her, Rebecca clearly realized that if it weren't for the fact that he looked like Queen Mary, I'm afraid Napoleon wouldn't even have the time to look at her.

Rebecca, who had secretly made up his mind in his heart, said to Napoleon: "Your Excellency, we have been in Brussels all this time, what should you do about your big business?"

"You don't have to worry about these things, Renbecca, but you also have to be prepared to live in Brussels.

This city will be our home away from home!

” Hearing Napoleon say this, the clever Rebecca did not ask any more questions.

After a moment, Napoleon stood up and hugged Rebecca tightly into his arms.

Smelling the faint scent of roses on Rebecca's body, Napoleon felt intoxicated at this moment.

Of course, what the mother-in-law didn't know was that just when he was silently feeling this rare moment of warmth, a controversy broke out against him in the Palace of Versailles.

In the opinion of some, Napoleon did not take advantage of the victory after the victory of the British army, but instead took refuge in the Austrian Netherlands, even though Louis XVI gave him several orders.

But Napoleon seemed to have made up his mind not to go, and this disrespect for the king's orders drew great indignation from the nobles of the Palace of Versailles.

"Your Majesty, Napoleon's move is complete contempt for royal power.

His Majesty is also requested to immediately take back Napoleon's military power and send someone to escort him back to China!

” It was the Prince of Condé who spoke, knowing that after Napoleon's conquest of Paris, in order to fulfill his promises to his soldiers.

Napoleon connived at the soldiers to sack Paris.

The Condé family's family estate in Paris was not spared, and it is unceremonious to say that the Condé family continued to be looted by Napoleon's rebels for nearly a hundred years.

For this reason, after Napoleon was stationed in Calais, the Prince of Condé became the vanguard of opposition to Napoleon in the French court.

Just after the Prince of Condé finished speaking, a large number of nobles came forward, and these nobles were representatives of the family that had suffered great losses after the war in Paris.

At this moment, there were only three or two people left in the entire palace who did not speak.

Louis XVI, who sat at the top, frowned tightly when he saw so many nobles opposing Napoleon.

Louis XVI had no affection for Napoleon.

At least after Napoleon's actions in Calais were all based on the damage to the interests of the crown, and Napoleon's idea of self-respect really made Louis XVI feel bad about him.

However, although Louis XVI was quick to deal with Napoleon, Louis XVI also clearly realized that it was not the time to move Napoleon, knowing that the most powerful army in France was under Napoleon's command, and Napoleon was also the most capable general in France at present, and no one dared to raise any objections.

And just when the crowd in the palace was excited, I saw that the side door on the side of the palace was opened, and then, accompanied by a group of maids, Queen Mary walked in.

After seeing Queen Mary's arrival, the nobles who had been in the palace before suddenly became quiet.

You must know that Queen Mary is Napoleon's greatest reliance in the Versailles court, and even without Queen Mary's support, Napoleon would not have been able to obtain his current status and strength, but no nobles dare to publicly express their dissatisfaction with Queen Mary.

Everyone knows that the main reason why Napoleon has behaved more deferentially so far is because there was a Queen Mary in the court of Versailles.

Today, when Louis XVI was mediocre, the affairs of the French state largely depended on Queen Mary to make decisions.

"Say!

Don't say anything, when you see me coming, will you all be dumb!

” As she spoke, the expression on Mary's face became more and more excited, and just after Mary finished yelling, even Prince Condé, a close relative of the royal family and an old nobleman, did not dare to speak out of disobedience, but lowered their heads one after another.

Louis XVI walked up to Marie, gently helped her up, and said: "Mary, if you're not in good health, rest more, don't you still have me for those upsetting things!"

Louis XVI's words of relief did not calm Marie, and even at this moment Marie could no longer care about the presence of a large number of nobles here, and said to Louis XVI: "Your Majesty, it is God blessed that my body has been able to support it until now, and to be honest, the changes you have made during this period make me feel that God is still favoring France.

I know that many people are dissatisfied with Napoleon, and even I know that if one day I am gone, Napoleon will definitely become your greatest threat, but we can't deal with Napoleon yet, or we have lost our strength against Napoleon!

” With Louis XVI's support, Marie said to Louis XVI as she walked, and after she had finished speaking, the two of them also walked to the steps in front of the palace.

Mary turned back, her eyes surveying the nobles in the palace, and after a moment Mary's eyes revealed a deep disappointment.

"Your Majesty, look, these are your ministers, they don't even have the courage to look at me, how can you trust them to deal with Napoleon!"

As she spoke, Marie suddenly coughed, and the cough became louder and louder, and Louis XVI, who was a little flustered, hurriedly motioned to the female medical officer who had followed Marie before to step forward and take Marie down for treatment.

When the medical officer approached Mary, Mary resisted the urge to cough and continued: "Napoleon was the sharpest sword of the Kingdom of France, but now it is in danger of piercing us.

Your Majesty France has reached the most critical moment, and you know the situation both nationally and internationally, and if you are not careful, we in France will become the sweetest cake in the eyes of all careerists!

” As she spoke, Marie leaned gently into Louis XVI's ear and said: "Your Majesty, I feel that God is already calling me, and if I am truly unfortunate enough to be called by God, then do not grieve!

I am very satisfied with your love in this life!

” Looking at Marie's pale face, Louis XVI firmly suppressed the sadness in his heart, he gently patted Marie's hand and said: "Mary, you'll be fine, don't worry, I've already offered a reward, as long as I can cure your illness, I'm willing to tear the earth and seal the king!"

Without waiting for Marie to speak, Louis XVI left the palace with Marie in his arms.

When they arrived at their bedchamber, Marie smiled at Louis XVI and said: "Your Majesty, Napoleon was raised by me, but I have never seen through his heart, I have sent someone to inform Napoleon, I think he will definitely come back, and when he returns, his life and death will be decided by you!"

Hearing Marie think of himself like this, Louis XVI suddenly felt that he could no longer control his emotions, and tears flowed from his eyes.

For Marie, summoning Napoleon back was probably the last thing she would do for France.

Napoleon's presence threatened not only the interests of many nobles, but also the royal power, and in this case, Marie made the decision she thought was the most appropriate.

January 31, 1793 Napoleon received an urgent letter from the Palace of Versailles, which stated that Queen Mary would die of a serious illness soon, and that she wanted to see Napoleon for the last time.

This document shocked Napoleon, and despite the opposition of most of the generals, Napoleon decided to rush back to Versailles immediately, and in order to hurry, Napoleon only brought 300 guards this time, and rushed to Versailles overnight with only one man and two horses.

Just as the French army was arguing over the documents of the Palace of Versailles, Rebecca quietly went to a flower shop in Brussels, and then, while the attendants following her were not paying attention, a small note rolled up reached the owner of the flower shop.

Soon after, a lean man in the backyard of the flower shop galloped away on horseback.

After the defeat of the expeditionary force, the British sent another mission to Prussia on the one hand, and on the other hand again called up troops on a large scale at home, and after a month of hard work, in Holland the British again formed an army of thirteen thousand men.

The reason why the soldiers were transported to Holland instead of Antwerp was because the British government feared that the French army might attack Antwerp at any time, and that the British soldiers who had just been drafted would be in vain.

Pitt Jr. gave a speech in the British Parliament for three consecutive days, and the result of the three-day speech was that the British Parliament agreed to increase the military spending of the British Army, and at the same time, the government increased the special war tax on the people, agreed to provide Prussia with a low-interest loan of 1.5 million pounds, and agreed to the request submitted by the British War Office to call up 100,000 soldiers within a year.
