Chapter 136 The Emperor of France

Paris City Hall is located on the north bank of the Seine, behind the Municipal Square, with a new architectural style, tall, spacious, solemn and solemn.

The officials of the original city hall were here to help His Majesty the Emperor and manage the whole of France.

It was the center of secular power in France, apart from the most exclusive halls.

But today, since early in the morning, carriages have been arriving one after another, and nobles and generals of the revolutionary army have entered this solemn and solemn city hall one after another.

Today, here, in this city hall, a grand meeting will be held, a political meeting that will touch everyone's hearts.

Now, Marshal Napoleon is only the Marshal of the Revolutionary Army, and this meeting will decide what the title of "Marshal" will become, whether it will be "Consul", "Duke Protector", or the "Marshal" that everyone expects and expects. Emperor of France".

Before Marshal Napoleon came, it was the former Prime Minister Yule who presided over the meeting.

The silver-haired, short and capable prime minister stood still in the middle of the meeting hall, coughed a few times, and said loudly: "Today, we gather in this council hall not for anything else, but for the future of our France, for our French to be better. Good development, better revival. If you have any ideas and proposals, you can put forward them at will, discuss and improve together! Well, I announce that the political conference will officially start now!"

"Let me talk about it first!" A general of the revolutionary army stood up and said, "The country cannot be left without a master for a day. Since there is no surviving royal family and no successor, I suggest that we elect a new French emperor today to lead the country." Let us revive France!"

"Secondary! There is no light to guide the way, no direction to go, how can our France be revived? And such a guide who guides us and makes us no longer confused is indispensable!" A nobleman in military uniform Stand up and agree.

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

The voices of approval were joined together by raised hands.

"Since everyone agrees with this proposal, let's propose a candidate." The former prime minister presiding over the meeting announced.

"Who else is there to mention? Of course it is Marshal Napoleon. Besides Marshal Napoleon, who is worthy of that position?" A muscular nobleman said loudly.

"Yes, only the great Marshal Napoleon can lead us on the road to revival. The position of emperor must belong to him." A revolutionary general stood up and supported him.

"Of course it's Marshal Napoleon, what's the point of discussing?" Someone was impatient.

"Okay, since everyone supports Marshal Napoleon to become our emperor of France, then wait for Marshal Napoleon to come, and we will ask the Marshal for orders together, and be sure to let the Marshal agree!" Prime Minister Yule suggested.

The luxurious carriage galloped on the avenue, and teams of knights in bright armor guarded on both sides, protecting the owner of the carriage and heading towards the city hall.

In the carriage, the well-dressed marshal was talking to three women in black robes:
"This time it is thanks to your teaching's help, otherwise we and the British army will be completely at a disadvantage in terms of high-end combat power. I am here again to express my gratitude to your teaching for your help."

"Marshal, oh no, Your Majesty the Emperor is welcome, we are just getting what we need from each other." One of the women laughed.

"Although not yet, if nothing unexpected happens, I will officially take office as emperor today. I don't know what the third requirement of your religion is, so I can say it now." Marshal Napoleon said.

The three women in black robes looked at each other, and the leading woman slowly said: "This last request is very simple, we hope that you can marry a high-ranking member of our Goddess Cult."

"What? This, this is impossible! This is not the same as covering up and supporting. This will openly expose our relationship to the sun. This will make us and the Holy See all-out war. This is impossible, and I will not agree. "The marshal's face pulled down all of a sudden, and he refused decisively.

"This is the condition that Lord Hecate personally ordered, and it is also our last request. If you agree, our Goddess Cult will fully support you, including using all the hidden power in our Cult." The black-robed woman insisted.

"You don't understand, the Holy See is truly terrifying. Don't look at us winning easily this time. When we really fight, we, together with your so-called hidden power, will definitely not be opponents. Yes, I also hate the Holy See very much. , and want to eradicate this cancer that has plagued the entire continent, but we have no strength at all, and we are not ready, do you understand? The goal of defeating the Holy See and overthrowing the Holy See cannot be achieved overnight." The marshal was still determined. refused.

"In that case, let's take a step back. How about you marrying a high-ranking member of our Goddess Cult, but not disclosing her identity?" the black-robed woman thought for a while and said.

"How is this possible? Even if I can marry a wife, I will find a marriage with a high-status nobleman or a princess from another country, or the queen. If I marry a commoner woman or a small nobleman, just think about it. Knowing that there are tricks in it, as long as the Holy See investigates a little bit, the matter will be leaked." Marshal Napoleon still disagreed.

"No no, Your Majesty, you have misunderstood. Of course she is not a commoner or a minor nobleman. I wonder if you have heard of Mary Louisa." The woman in black said with a smile.

"Her?" A rare surprise appeared on Marshal Napoleon's face.

*******************************
Standing still in the middle of the council hall, looking at one after another with eager anticipation, the great Marshal Napoleon began his speech:

"18 years ago, I failed. I was expelled from here, imprisoned, tortured, "secretly executed" as everyone heard, secretly hidden in layers of strictly guarded black prisons, and tortured endlessly. I I don't know why they are so afraid of me, as if I will bring misfortune, I will overthrow their dynasty, I will make France fall into the bottomless abyss."

"But I know, I won't, I am the Marshal of France, I want to fight bravely, defeat one powerful enemy after another, conquer one piece of land after another, let us France, make my motherland more prosperous! I submitted Proposal after proposal, plan after plan, however, they all disappeared without a word. Then, they were so scared that they destroyed all the plans; they were so scared that they had to lock me up; they They are too scared, so scared that they dare not even kill me; they are too scared, afraid that this suffering country will become prosperous and revived. But, I want to ask you, are you afraid of me?"

"not afraid!"

"We are not afraid of you!"

"We have nothing to fear!"

"We will always follow you!

Countless people are shouting.

"Now, 18 years later, everyone who feared me has been wiped out! Defeated! Everyone who supported me, in this hall, in this hall, in all of Paris, in all of France, is at the top Hurray, you are all fighting for the future of France! You have persuaded me again and again to call myself emperor, but can something like an emperor be self-proclaimed? That is the supreme right! It is also the supreme obligation ! Obtaining it requires great feats and dedication!"

"I didn't have such a feat 18 years ago, I didn't have it under the city of Marseille, I didn't have it before the Petit Palais, but now, in the council hall, I feel that I have it!"

"Therefore, I promise you! I, Napoleon, will be Emperor, our Emperor of France!"

The applause was like thunder, resounding in the council hall.

Applause spread like waves in the city of Paris.
