King's Landing in France
Page 36
Mara opened the door and got off the car: "No! I'm going to the Antomai District. You are blocking the road now, which means we are going in the right place!"
An Ning also jumped out of the car and showed the police his officer's badge, which he used to prove his military status when he was not wearing a military uniform.
An Ning: "Don't worry, with me following this gentleman, his safety will not be a problem."
The policemen looked at each other in blank dismay, and the policeman who started the conversation shook his head and said, "We haven't received any news of the dispatch of the army?"
An Ning: "I came with my friend in my personal capacity. You may not know him. He is the reporter Mara from "Friends of the People"!"
Mara: "I'm the editor-in-chief! The editor-in-chief!"
An Ning: "Oh, okay, editor-in-chief."
The policeman thought for a while and waved his hands: "Okay, you go, anyway, it's none of my business if you die."
Marla threw down a "thank you" and rushed over the reporters to the center of the commotion, followed by An Ning.
Turning a street corner, An Ning saw a familiar thing hanging on a street lamp.
——Wait a minute, I was just kidding when I said I chose a street lamp style I like!
An Ning opened her mouth wide and looked at the thing floating in the wind as a toy.
——No, I don’t remember this one?
Is this also the detail difference between the two space-times?
At this moment, An Ning heard the sound of horseshoes.
Turning his head, he saw a small group of cuirassiers appear at the end of the road. The cavalry lined up like a huge wave, rushing down the street to the workers who were still carrying things from the workshop.
An Ning grabbed Mara, who wanted to continue approaching the scene, and dragged him into the gap between the adjacent buildings. The two huddled together and looked outside.
The cavalry rushed over with a rumbling sound, crashing into the unprepared crowd with a thunderous force.
An Ning saw an unlucky guy being pierced by a spear and was heartbroken.
The knight threw away his spear and drew his saber.
The workers who were still frantically shouting "hang him" just now fled in all directions, screaming everywhere.
The law of this time and space started with a cavalry charge.
The bloody horseshoes of the cavalry were printed on the scroll of history, leaving a strong mark.
Chapter 058 "Why Don't You Eat Cake?"
Marat was very emotional.
"How could they do this? These people just couldn't make it through, so they made such a move!"
An Ning: "Maybe the master commanding the cavalry doesn't treat civilians as human beings at all."
At this time, Mara saw the commander of the cuirassiers riding on a tall horse. Before An Ning could react, he rushed out and stopped in front of the master's horse.
"Sir! I protest! You can't do this to a defenseless people!"
The gentleman frowned directly because of Marat's appearance, and he said loudly: "What are you? What's wrong with the hooligans I was ordered to suppress the riots? Look at what they have done, what is the poor factory owner?" wrong?"
Mara shouted without flinching: "I'm sure he didn't pay wages, which caused this incident!"
The master snorted: "Can the boss be sent to the lamppost without paying wages? Is there any law left? As for you, if you dare to talk nonsense, I will throw you under the iron hooves of the cavalry and crush you! A bunch of bottom-level trash, die when you die!"
Mara continued to have seizures, and An Ning dragged him back directly.Now Marat is not yet ready to die. Now that he is dead, who will be killed by the royalist "saint" in the future.
Oh no, that's a reversal of cause and effect. Ms. Charlotte Corday was considered a saint by the royalists because she killed Marat.
The irony is that Charlotte herself is a republican. Because she killed Marat, she was regarded as a saint by the old royalist nobles and diehards.
An Ning dragged Ma La into a side alley.
Marat was still very emotional: "This is a murder! I want to criticize the cavalry officer just now on the Friends of the People! Just wait and see, I will make his atrocities known!"
An Ning: "Of course you can do this, but if I don't bring you back just now, I'm afraid the People's Friend will no longer have an editor-in-chief."
Mara thought for a while and nodded. He seemed a little calmer: "You are right, my battlefield is not here, but in the field of public opinion. I want to severely criticize this operation and speak out!"
The result of this "watching" was that Marat wrote an impassioned long article in the next day's newspaper, portraying the rebellious workers as progressives demanding reform, and describing the repressive cavalry commander as Heinous.
But now there are all kinds of voices in Paris, and in the newspapers published on the same day, there are also descriptions of the workers as robbers who broke into the boss's house and killed the boss.
For a time, the whole Paris was full of uproar because of this matter, and almost everyone was discussing this matter.
But after this incident, the workers found that the factory owners were obviously much easier to talk to.
This incident was eventually called the Reveillon incident by the people of Paris.
On April 4, the Paris police took several people who were said to be the leaders of the incident to Place Louis XV, and planned to publicly punish them with sticks.
An Ning arrived at the square early in the morning.
In addition to him, there are many people who came from all over Paris.
Place Louis XV was later known as Place de la Concorde.Geographically, this is the center of Paris.
The execution started at one o'clock in the afternoon. At this time, a large number of people had gathered in the square. As the executioner's stick hit the victim's back, a roar resounded throughout the square.
Prisoner: "Long live the third class!"
An Ning opened her mouth wide.
The inmates didn't look like club-going gentlemen either, and it seemed the idea that the third estate was everything had spread widely among the common people, not just among respectable gentlemen.
Sansculottes have realized that they should stand up and fight for their rights.
As the execution progressed, the victim's voice became weaker and weaker. His back was swollen from the beating, and many places were torn apart.
However, his voice became even more shocking because it gradually became weaker - he was beaten like this, and he continued to shout "Long live the third level"!
Finally, someone from the onlookers shouted along with him: "Long live the third level!"
At this moment, the whole square was like dry grass being set on fire, and the crowd uttered an overwhelming cry: "Long live the third class!"
"The third level is everything!"
"The third class will get everything!"
An Ning was in the center of the vortex, affected by this scene, and shouted together: "It's everything!"
After returning from Place Louis XV, An Ning sat at the table and couldn't calm down for a long time. He said to Fanny who came in and asked him to eat: "Do you know? This city is like a volcano before it erupted. With strength, I felt this strength today in the square."
Fanny seemed to lack interest: "I don't know what strength is or is not. All I know is that it's time to eat. Today you should go to the Duke's mansion for dinner. Master, Miss, and several young masters are waiting for you."
An Ning: "Miss is back?"
"Yes, I just came back from her residence in the Palace of Versailles today. It is said that the queen granted her a few days of vacation."
Christina has been promoted to captain in the Royal Guards, leading a whole queen's honor guard.Christina described this guard of honor in her letter to An Ning, and everyone is a big beauty who can rule one party at the ball.
An Ning would really like to see the Queen's guard team composed of beauties. When the third-level parliament is held, An Ning will also visit the Palace of Versailles, so she should have a chance to see it.
Fanny: "Miss came to look for you in the morning, but you went to watch the execution."
An Ning: "I'm not going to watch the execution, I'm going to observe the conditions of the people, don't make it sound like I'm an idler running around with nothing to do."
"Aren't you?" Fanny asked back.
Recently, Fanny doesn't use honorifics when talking to An Ning, only when she wants to ridicule An Ning, she will use honorifics seriously.
An Ning couldn't refute Fanny's mockery, after all, in the eyes of outsiders, An Ning was just hanging around with nothing to do.
He stood up: "Come on, let's go to eat."
※※※
In the dining room of the Royal Palace's main building, An Ning saw Christina in the captain's uniform.
This military uniform is not the same as the men's military uniform. It looks like—yes, just like the little skirt worn by Napoleon's sister Paulina in the game "Battle Banner".
Christina looks very heroic in this outfit on the boat, but it's a pity that this suit conceals her proud chest muscles to a certain extent.
As soon as Christina saw An Ning, she came up to him with great joy and gave him a hug: "Andy! I miss you so much! Let me tell you, I told you about your bravery over and over again in the army. The Queen's guards are now I have turned you into your little fan girl!"
An Ning smiled and said, "That's a good idea. When the third-level council is held, I will also go to the Palace of Versailles. Maybe I can look forward to an affair."
Christina laughed loudly and said, "Did you choose this representative for the sake of having an affair? It really is yours."
——No, I chose this representative to check in and ride the fence.
At this time, Christina said again: "By the way, the Queen recently heard about the Reveillon riots at the salon. I told her that the people rioted because they didn't have enough to eat and the bread was too expensive. Guess how the Queen answered." I?"
An Ning thought, are you coming?In another time and space, Queen Mary did not actually say the famous phrase "Since there is no bread to eat, why not eat cake?" It was fabricated by someone in the public opinion field in Paris at that time to oppose the Queen.
This time and space looks like...
Christina: "The queen told me that bread is expensive, I already know, since they can't afford bread, why don't these people eat cake?"
coming!
This queen of time and space is a real idiot!
Chapter 059 Volcano
Christina interpreted An Ning's speechless expression as being shocked by the queen's speech.
She said worriedly: "I have been trying to make the queen understand what kind of state the people are in, but she can't seem to understand."
An Ning: "Of course she can't understand, she was born in the most prominent royal family in Europe, and then married into another prominent royal family in Europe, her cognition has been limited by her birth.
"She is not like you, you have met many civilians at the Royal Palace, you know what the life of a civilian is like.
"You've even been on the battlefield! Your knowledge is far beyond that of that Austrian girl."
Christina: "But the Queen is prettier than me. She's so much older than me, but she looks so young."
An Ning: "The skin of the Habsburgs is really good."
An Ning once attended the Royal Ball and met Queen Mary at the ball.
It can only be said that Louis XVI was still weak in the face of Mary's prosperous appearance, and the locksmith was really not good at it.
Of course, it could also be that the queen's body odor is too strong for the locksmith to lose interest... right?
Christina was worried: "You went to Place Louis XV today, didn't you? How is it? How's the situation?"
An Ning: "Very good."
Paris is like a volcano that has accumulated to its limit. Of course, it is very good for An Ning. What he is worried about is that if the revolution does not happen, if it does not happen, he will be in vain.
Christina looked at An Ning: "What do you mean very good? Which aspect is good?"
An Ning: "Everything is good."
He didn't want Christina to continue asking, so he changed the subject: "You have been promoted to captain, the captain's uniform is so beautiful."
Christina: "Oh, this, this is a newly made dress specially designed by the queen's tailor. The queen told him that he needs to have the heroism of a soldier and the charm of a girl, and then he succeeded in doing it."
Then Christina sighed: "My new military uniform cost a lot of money. Obviously, the palace's expenses are already so tight. Your Royal Highness is wasting money like this..."
An Ning: "She's a deficit queen, how can she expect him not to waste money?"
Christina: "Her Majesty is in a good mood recently. She seems to think that once the three-level parliament opens, taxes will be raised smoothly, and she will have more money to spend. She has no idea what the public opinion in Paris is saying, nor Know what the gentlemen of the Third Estate are planning."
An Ning: "Does she really not know what the public opinion is talking about? Didn't anyone tell her at the prom and salon?"
Christina: "There should be, but the queen is very stubborn. She only listens to what she likes, and ignores the rest."
An Ning was speechless, and it was unlucky for Louis XVI to have such a queen.
In addition to good skin, almost nothing else.
At this time, the Duke of Orleans entered the dining room, and when he saw the state of An Ning and Christina, he joked, "Should I leave first, and come in after you finish whispering?"
It was only then that An Ning realized that after hugging Christina just now, he hadn't let go yet, and kept chatting all the way with his arms around the girl.
He hastily let go.
Because Christina has gone to serve as a soldier, theoretically she can no longer be used for noble marriages—in this time-space aristocratic society, a daughter who goes to serve as a soldier and a daughter who is sent to a monastery are regarded as being removed from the marriage candidate list.
But soldiers can still get married, and generally these women who join the army will eventually become the wives of an officer.
An Ning happened to be an officer.
So the Duke himself probably has some thoughts in that regard.
