Flowers, Swords and France

Mr. Kongze, the senior special commissioner of the French Political Police Service, is sitting in his office at the moment, looking at the report just passed by his subordinates with an expressionless face.

Since that time when he was left alone to discuss with the Minister himself for a long time, Mr. Kong Ze's status in the ministry has obviously been greatly improved. Not only did the ministry specially allocate some capable people to serve as his subordinates at his request, but even the small staff who usually liked to nod and bow were even more flattering to him at this time.

This is what it feels like to stand out, right?

Although Kong Ze never showed his pride in front of others, nor was he as arrogant as some people who were rising through the ranks, the excitement in his heart was no different from those of those people.

However, what he has obtained now is far from enough, and there is still a complete gap with his ideals and ambitions.

Because of this, he needs to work harder.

Recently, he has been staying in the ministry for more than ten hours every day, either reviewing documents or files, or communicating and coordinating with his new team. He is extremely busy. Even after returning home, I often read official documents and reports.

Very hard, yes. However, this is the life Kong Ze hopes for most. Only in this kind of life can he feel that he is really needed and valued by the world.

While he was still reading the report carefully, there was a gentle knock on the door.

"Come in." He didn't even look up.

"Sir." The visitor saluted him as soon as he came in, and then consciously sat on the sofa opposite the desk.

After reading this report, Kong Ze raised his head again. "You just interrupted my train of thought. I hope you can give me some valuable information to make up for this mistake."

Although he spoke harshly, Kong Ze was actually just taking the opportunity to establish a kind of personal prestige in the hearts of his new subordinates - this person was someone he directly requested the minister to send after careful screening. He would not be ignorant of the rules. Since at this time If you suddenly disturb me, you must have something valuable to report.

"Yes, sir." The other party nodded slightly. "We have made some progress in investigating the issues you have mentioned before."

"What kind of progress?" Kong Ze's voice was still calm.

"According to the ideas you provided, we have studied and compared the paper used in those slanderous leaflets in detail, and then roughly determined the origin of the paper-it is in the Val d'Oise province." The subordinate replied in a low voice.

"Very good, what next?" Kong Ze remained calm.

"But there are many paper mills in Val-d'Oise, and it is very close to Paris, so a large amount of paper is transported from here to Paris every day... This gives us a certain basis for the next step of the investigation. Difficulty..." The subordinate hesitated a little.

Kong Ze secretly sighed. It seemed that his team needed more training.

"Pierre, have you analyzed our opponent this time?"

"Yes, we have analyzed it." Although his affectionate address made the distance between the two people much closer, his subordinates still sat upright. "Being able to print and distribute a large number of such leaflets in a very short period of time, the other party should have a lot of power behind the scenes - it is likely to be a well-established and dangerous political organization."

"That's right." Kong Ze nodded approvingly.

It seemed that he was encouraged, and the tension among his subordinates was relieved a lot.

"Moreover, they must have a large number of printing machines, so they can print a large number of leaflets in a short period of time and distribute them everywhere. Maybe they usually use publishing houses or newspapers as cover!"

"It makes sense." Kong Ze nodded again. "So you see, we actually already have a lot of information."

"However, the information we currently have is not enough for us to find out those traitors..." The subordinates were still hesitant. "There are so many newspapers in Paris alone, but also in the provinces..."

"No need to consider other provinces!" Kong Ze suddenly raised his voice. "It was only three or four days before the death of the Duke of Plasland that someone reported the discovery of such a leaflet. If you think about it carefully, what does this mean?"

"That means they are very well-informed," the subordinate replied.

"This not only means that the other party is well-informed. Just imagine, if the printing agency of the rebel party organization is in another province, from passing the news to bringing the leaflets back, it will be dozens of miles back and forth. Is there enough time? Still? To run the risk of being discovered on the road as you enter the city..."

[The "li" here refers to fari. At that time, the international metric system had not yet appeared (it was only established in France in 1875). The French used ancient weights and measures. One league equals approximately 4 kilometers. 】

After listening to Kong Ze's words, the subordinates fell into deep thought and seemed to be calculating something.

"You're right." In the end, he agreed with his new boss. "In other words, this rebel organization has a propaganda agency and a large number of propaganda machines in Paris..."

Speaking of this, there was a hint of chill in his tone.

"You have finally thought about it. This is what the Prime Minister and the Minister are most worried about." Kong Ze lowered his voice, "Do you know what these incidents mean in their eyes?"

"What does it mean?" the subordinate immediately asked.

"Flyers and rumors flying all over the place without warning can only explain two problems: first, this organization lurks deeply and has developed great power without being noticed by anyone; second, this organization The organization believes that now it is time for them to take action, so they no longer worry too much about exposing their strength... Pierre, think about it carefully, what do these two problems mean together? "

The more my subordinate thought about it, the more he felt his heart tremble, and a little cold sweat broke out on his forehead. "That is to say...next..."

"Well, for sure. This rebel organization's action this time is probably just a preview. They will have more and bigger actions in the future, which will endanger the dynasty and the king's political ax more than issuing leaflets. "Kong Ze's face was as dark as water, "A vicious enemy will definitely not surface just for a breath of fresh air."

"Then...then what should we do..." The subordinate felt his throat was a little dry. Before he came in, he never thought that his latest mission would be of such great significance, and his breathing was a little disordered for a moment. "This looks really dangerous..."

"However, there is no need to worry so much. Since this rebel organization still chooses to hide underground like a mole, it means that they still have scruples, are still afraid, and are afraid of us who still have all the resources." After scaring his subordinates, After that, Kong Ze started to encourage the opponent again. "The task entrusted to me and you by the Prime Minister and the Ministers is to find out this rebel organization as soon as possible before it causes more bigger incidents with more serious consequences, and then eliminate them all!"

"Then...then what should we do?" The subordinate's voice trembled with excitement.

Kong Ze raised his head and stared at the other party.

"First of all, you must absolutely obey my orders because I have direct authorization from the Prime Minister and His Excellency the Minister."

The subordinate was excited and immediately stood up from his seat. "yes!"

Kong Ze waved his hand and motioned for the other party to sit back. "Secondly, I will conduct a secret investigation of all newspapers and publishing houses in Paris that use paper produced in the Val d'Oise department. Even if the rebels cannot be directly identified this time, it will be good to get a feel for future actions. Of course. , this is a very time-consuming and labor-intensive work, and you must strictly implement it.”

"Yes!" replied again.

"Also, you need to take more people to the streets to investigate, try to find and catch some people who are distributing leaflets and inciting propaganda on the streets, and then knock more things out of their mouths." Kong Ze's voice became more and more severe. , "Remember, I want to go on the streets secretly, and don't let others think that you are a policeman. This seems very simple, but it is very difficult. I selected you after carefully screening your abilities. I hope Don't let me down."

"Yes!" The subordinate straightened his back and responded again.

"Very good." Kong Ze nodded, "Do you have any questions now?"

"No more for now, sir." The subordinate saluted and prepared to leave.

"By the way, Pierre." When his subordinates were about to leave, Kong Ze suddenly asked again, "In your personal opinion, who are the rebels who are against us this time? Our Majesty does not lack enemies. ”

"Well... this..." The subordinate hesitated again, not because he had not considered this issue before, but because he was worried that his answer would not be to the taste of his boss. "I don't know what you think? Is it a republican or a Bonapartist? Or something else?"

"Me? I think it's the Bonapartist faction." A rare smile appeared on Kong Ze's face. "From my personal point of view, those republicans always have a little bit of idealism and regard the revolution itself as their cause. Therefore, they often act recklessly. I am afraid it will take a long time before they can learn to be foresighted. Their ability is so great that they can be killed by bombs. A duke; the Bonapartists are different. They never have any fixed beliefs, or their only belief is profit, so they are more terrifying and dangerous because they can establish a new country..."

["Blow up a Duke" refers to Joseph Motier, one of the most famous and outstanding political speculators in French history. During the Napoleonic era, he was awarded the title Field Marshal and Duke of Treviso for his military exploits. However, after the fall of Napoleon, he quickly defected to the Bourbon dynasty and won the trust of Louis XVIII. In 1825, he was awarded the title of French Imperial Guard by King Charles X. Medal of Honor. But during the revolution of 1830, he quickly abandoned the Bourbon dynasty and defected to the new king. He was also reused and became prime minister in early 1835.

However, in July 1835, when he accompanied King Louis-Philippe to review the National Guard, he and 11 other people were directly killed by bombs thrown by the republicans who came to assassinate him (the king himself was fortunately unscathed) .]

"I think what you said makes sense." The subordinate bowed again.
