Chapter 1882 giantslayer (twenty-six)
Lucien Bonaparte is a recognized gentleman. He is always dressed as a literati. He does not wear military uniforms like Napoleon, nor does he like sabers. He always has a smile on his face.
Some people feel that his smile is warm, which makes up for his unremarkable appearance and makes him very popular. When he was just an adult, he had an affair with two women.
Because of the high degree of myopia, his eyes are always squinted in order to see things clearly. This somewhat affected some of his image and made him feel like hiding a knife in a smile.
Although Lucien was a staunch republican, he always tried his best to support Napoleon Bonaparte, including going to the Orangery to expel the Council of 500 people.
The so-called crowded people, even those with little courage at the beginning, will become daring to attack in the crowd and passion. On the day of the farce, not only people shouted to defeat the tyrant, but also some people took out a dagger and stabbed Napoleon. A grenadier was blocked. On this thrilling stage with no script, Lucien had an idea to draw out Napoleon's saber, pointed it at his chest with the tip of the sword, and said loudly, "If my brother dares to harm the French Freedom, I vowed to stick this sword into his chest".
A good actor sometimes encounters unexpected situations. At this time, he needs an impromptu performance with a clever idea, otherwise the play will be broken. Lucien and Napoleon In addition to two younger sisters, Caroline and Ballina, there is also a younger sister named Alisa. She is very short, looks a lot like Napoleon, but has a lively personality, Mrs. Sever and Otense. In order to promote vaccinia on the day when she went to elementary school, she and Lucien were supposed to perform in front of people wearing pink ballerinas, but her feet were broken, and Polina replaced her. Napoleon was so angry that Lu Xi'an was driven out of Paris.
The sponsors of the ballet school also include Elena and Lucien. At the same time, this place used as a dance practice room was once a greenhouse, which was originally used to cultivate orange trees. Although the citizens who broke in ransacked the contents and smashed all the glass in the windows, the copper pipes buried in the wall were still preserved. They made this practice room warm like spring all year round.
Girls can stretch out their bodies in light clothes here, and because it is far away from the city center, there is no noise except music, so Elena uses it as a place to entertain guests, her friend actress Ida St. Elma is always by her side.
This woman once lived with Moreau and had an affair with Napoleon, or that she has a hobby in this regard, likes famous generals, occasionally Date will also pretend to be a woman, splitting her legs and riding a horse like a man. Recently, she seems to be a fan. Got Ney because of his outstanding performance in Switzerland.
People often say that when the times change, people's thoughts will also change. It may not be entirely correct, but some people have indeed changed. This former royal garden has become a public place, and occasionally citizens will pass by the door to enjoy the students dancing.
Of course, the roses in the flowerbed are not allowed to be picked no matter how beautiful they are. If everyone picks one for the beloved girl, the flowers in the flowerbed will soon be gone. What do the people behind admire?
Middle-aged women call Georgiana Ms. Severe because she manages the Severe Ceramic Factory, and the factory pays a sum of money to pay the teachers. All in all, this is a very dreamy place, but it is a bit different from the dream of Versailles. The air is filled with the fragrance of roses, and occasionally there is a smell, which is emitted after fertilization, and it is not found in the toilet. The nobles who dealt with it are almost the same. What if you want the flowers to bloom beautifully and sweetly without fertilizing them?
Marie Antoinette was a young girl when she first came to Paris from Austria. She had the purity and nature of a young girl, but not the beauty of the "Rococo Rose" later. The first thing she did when she came to France was to learn the rules. This was in 1778. She was only 23 years old when the garden was repaired. She likes dancing parties, fashion, having fun and decorating the garden. This “trivial” rose garden was built by the “deficit queen” at that time.
Some people play with her in Versailles, and no one except her brother reminded her about her duty to be a queen. After someone reminded her, she converged a lot and worked as a milkmaid in the Trianon Palace.
Before the outbreak of the Great Revolution, there were also many nobles who stayed in the countryside. When they were hit by natural disasters, they also assumed the obligation to save the losses, and won the hearts of the local people. Mobs sometimes ignite riots in the name of public interest, then rob these nobles and burn their houses. All silverware, frills, laces, coupons and contracts are taken away. Sometimes people confuse not only poverty and crime, but also freedom and indulgence. The privileged aristocracy in the past has become the object of oppression, and tacit violence will also breed injustice, but people at the time felt that this was an operation that uprooted the aristocracy and priests.
This is the same as the king's acquiescence in his dragoons' abuse of force against the Hugloists. After the abolition of the Nantes Amnesty, they arrived in England and allowed the British industry to develop rapidly. The gap in national power between the two countries is increasing.
If Louis XVI can obtain sufficient benefits for France in the War of Independence in North America, whether it is war reparations or land or resources, then the people at the bottom will not be overwhelmed by taxes. You have to pay when you enter the city, and you have to pay when you cross a district. There is no freedom of movement, and prices are getting higher and higher. Borrowing debts, the profit is good enough. Don't borrow, and you don't have money to eat bread. The boss gives you a salary. Not only did it not rise, but it was also heard that prices were to be kept down. A worker in a paper mill launched a riot, not just on strike, but also smashed the boss's equipment.
Their life is like this, but the nobles of Versailles are dancing parties and all kinds of sweets and delicacies, and they don't pay taxes.
The most important thing is that the queen is so profligate. It is difficult for the local nobles to remain objective and fair when their lives and property are not guaranteed. They hope that the parliament can issue an expulsion order so that they can legally take away their wealth. Left France.
Louis Vuitton itself is a package for Empress Eugenie, and she will definitely take enough money with her when she flees. Of course, the stronger the boxes, the better.
The snail carvings that Napoleon liked were not very popular, even if Josephine took the lead. But the fragrant powder box made of shells is very popular. Girls almost hand one, even a fishmonger will give one.
It is incompatible with the vegetable market where there is sewage everywhere, like a pearl falling into the dirty water, but when the shell is opened, there is a small mirror inside that can reflect the girl's face, as long as she smiles, that gift is given The fool is happy.
There is a craft called Luotian in the East, which can be used on furniture and utensils. There is a Luotian cabinet in the palace of Louis XV.
Although they are all very cheap materials, they will become different in the hands of a Parisian craftsman. Annecy's carriage does not pose a threat to the carriage factory in Paris. There is still a difference between a sturdy and durable carriage and a gorgeous carriage. They can design only those elegant and meaningless decorative lines.
As long as they are rich enough, even mediocre women can become beautiful women, let alone Bonaparte who is willing to spend money on women.
Major means that he can send anything that ordinary men can't even think of to the woman. After all, the Severe Ceramic Factory is state-owned, but the grand prince of the Principality of Palma is not dead. Who is the gift?
He dared to give it away, does the woman dare to pick it up? What qualifications do you use? That is the territory of hereditary nobles.
Later, I thought that the hereditary aristocracy in France was gone. The Great Revolution died and fled. With the expansion of the French Republic, those feudal forces will also be wiped out in the future, and the Austrian aristocracy who "occupied land" were driven away. Replaced by the local bourgeoisie, they can reproduce the urban planning according to the French template. Lisbon, Portugal is like that.
Look at those roll tops, walls, roof railings...
Before getting excited, let's see if there is any violation of the constitution. This is no longer the era of absolute monarchy.
Bonaparte loves to scare people, such as telling ghost stories to Otense, Georgian is about to change a trick.
Man is often unwilling to deal with trivial things. Women are good at dealing with details. The Baroque and Rococo styles are both gorgeous, but the Rococo style has many more complicated details.
A small matter might kill the queen. The letter to the cardinal was not from Marie Antoinette, but Jeanna hadn't convinced the bishop that she was taking the queen's handwritten letter.
There are many imitations of celebrity handwriting in Paris, and the letters of "Queen of Decapitation" sprinkled with perfume are the favorite of many collectors.
Georgiana's handkerchiefs are also kept, although she doesn't even use handkerchiefs at all.
But she has one thing, which is a transparent fabric similar to gauze, with a gold-like pattern on it. She doesn't use it on her clothes, but the veil will be inlaid with diamonds.
Bonaparte's characteristic is to save money at home, and he must be decent when he is outside. Louis XVI's trip to Fontainebleau costs 6 million francs at a time, and 150,000 francs is enough for him to go out once. Those who pick up handkerchiefs for the king in Versailles also serve this purpose. The average person drinks 12 cups of coffee a day.
It's not a day, it's every day, no wonder it's so exciting.
You must always be vigilant if you don't want to die. Bonaparte placed her study in Marie Antoinette's small living room, while Josephine would rather stay in Malmaison to meet with friends.
Although the rose is delicate and beautiful, it has thorns. The thorn in the hand will cause pain and even bleeding, but the pain brings realness to people.
Haji took out his dagger and slashed his palm lightly. He could feel the pain, so, is this true?
"This is not real." Haji murmured, "This is a dream."
He is now in a pavilion in the "English courtyard" in the back mountain. This style actually incorporates a lot of Chinese elements.
Like the hexagonal pavilion in London's Chinatown, it has bucket arches and cornices. This is also one of the rococo elements, but does it appear in this nature-themed garden to look harmonious?
