Make France Great Again

"Before the border military exercise, we can properly promote the friendship between France and Austria in Vienna, and suggest that if the Austrian Empire is attacked, Britain and France will help us defend against the Russians! In this way, the Russian troops in the border area will be It will definitely not be easy on us!"

Generally speaking, Metternich's approach still maintains the idea of ​​the balance of power in Europe during his reign, but Metternich's balance of power has changed from relying on Russia and defending against Russia to relying on France and defending against Russia now.

"This is indeed a good idea!" Franz Joseph nodded, and then told Prince Metternich about Jerome Bonaparte's assurance.

"His Majesty Jerome Bonaparte can make such a promise to you! It is enough to prove that he still maintains his original intention for the alliance between France and Austria!" Prince Metternich said excitedly: "Your Majesty, as long as the French Empire is willing to Join hands with the Austrian Empire to form an alliance, and the security of the Empire will be guaranteed!"

"However, if one day Jerome Bonaparte will take action on the Apennine Peninsula, then we may be in danger!" Franz Joseph said to Prince Metternich with a frown.

Although Jerome Bonaparte repeatedly assured that he would not take the initiative to attack the Austrian Empire, Franz Joseph was still reluctant to believe Jerome Bonaparte's words.

Because the promise of the monarch is the cheapest thing in the world, just like Franz Joseph can take refuge in Britain and France without guilt, he believes that in the face of sufficient interests, Jerome Bonaparte will also have no guilt. War with the Austrian Empire.

Don't look at every speech of Jérôme Bonaparte, he will trumpet peace, as if he was a peace messenger with a broad mind.

However, anyone who knows a little about the Crimean War knows that the reason why the Ottoman Empire problem turned into a war so quickly is not all due to the French Empire.

It's just that Nicholas I himself coveted Constantinople in the Ottoman Empire, and the Kingdom of Britain (mainly Palmerston, Albert, Russell) also wanted to take action against the insatiable Russian Empire.

Therefore, what Jerome Bonaparte and his subordinates said in public about the hope of peace in Europe, in the eyes of the upper echelons of European countries, is just a fig leaf for Jerome Bonaparte to maintain the righteousness!

"Your Majesty, we have no choice!" Prince Metternich repeated in a heavy tone: "The strength of the empire alone cannot resist the Russian Empire and the Kingdom of Prussia, so rely on the French Empire!

If one day the French Empire is also an enemy of the Empire, then..."

Prince Metternich kept silent, he knew that he no longer had to tell Franz Joseph the end of the Austrian Empire.

"I know!" Franz Joseph muttered in despair, he understood that the empire at this time could no longer find countries with non-conflicting interests as friends. countries as allies.

The conflict of interest between the French and Austrian empires was precisely the relatively minor of all conflicts. (In fact, the Anglo-Austrian conflict is also small, but the British Army cannot help the Austrian Empire.)

Whether the Kingdom of Prussia is trying to dominate the German Confederation or the Empire of Russia is trying to create a Slavic kingdom in the Balkans, it will be fatal for the Austrian Empire.

"Actually, Your Majesty, you don't have to worry!" Prince Metternich comforted Franz Joseph and said, "Since His Majesty Jerome Bonaparte is willing to lend us money, it shows that the French Empire is still unwilling to tear its face with the Empire. !"

"I hope so!" Franz Joseph said to Prince Metternich with a reluctant smile. .

Just then, there was another knock on the door.

"Who?" Franz Joseph shouted out of the room again.

"His Majesty Franz, I'm Mokar!" Mokar's voice came from outside the room.

"Come in!" Franz Joseph responded to Mokar.

Mokar, who entered the room, first saluted Franz Woolf, and then told Franz Joseph that he was invited to the studio by Emperor Jerome Bonaparte.

"Jerome, he's back?" Franz Joseph asked Mokar.

"Your Majesty, he just came back!" Mokar responded to Franz Joseph.

Franz Joseph immediately got up from the sofa and went to the studio with Mokar.

When Franz Joseph arrived in the studio, Jerome Bonaparte, Augusta, and Elizabeth all took their poses. Elizabeth and Augusta sat on the stool, and Jerome Bonaparte stood position behind Augusta.

"Franz, come here!" Jerome Bonaparte beckoned to Franz Joseph.

Franz Joseph took advantage of the situation to stand behind Elizabeth.

"It's time to start!" Jerome Bonaparte turned his gaze to Camille Corot who was only a few steps away from him.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Ke Luo nodded and began to paint.

While scrutinizing Jerome Bonaparte and others, he frowned and pondered how he could completely depict the charm of the two monarchs and the two queens on the canvas.

After thinking for a while, Corot turned his gaze to the window of the studio. He pointed to the window lattice and respectfully said to Jerome Bonaparte: "Your Majesty, can you please move there!"

"Of course!" Jerome Bonaparte readily agreed to Corot's suggestion.

After a while, Jerome Bonaparte and the others posed again.

Corot also found inspiration, he took the brush out of the pen holder and dipped it in paint, and began to paint on the canvas.

As the brush moved continuously on the canvas, a simple outline soon appeared on the canvas, and gradually the outline became clearer and the details gradually appeared on the canvas.

With the passage of time, the expression of Corot, who is immersed in the field of painting, has gradually become richer.

After about an hour and a half, Corot stopped painting, he put the brush into the pen holder, and the paint was gently closed.

"Is it over?" Jerome Bonaparte hurriedly asked after seeing Corot packing his bags.

"Yes! Your Majesty!" Corot nodded and replied to Jerome Bonaparte.

"I'll see how it goes!" said Jerome Bonaparte, walking in the direction of Corot.

"It's so beautiful!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded approvingly.

The perfection of Jerome Bonaparte made Franz Joseph also interested, and he also stepped forward to watch.

In the oil painting, Jerome Bonaparte and Franz Joseph in gorgeous military uniforms looked grim in a palace, as if they were thinking about a problem.

In front of them, Queen Augusta and Princess Elizabeth were sitting on the sofa in imperial court dresses, as if they were attending a gorgeous banquet.

At their feet are bunches of flowers, which seem to symbolize prosperity, while behind them are clouds, smoke, and fire, symbolizing war and death.

Being able to draw two very different feelings in one painting is indeed enough to prove Corot's skills.

"Thank you for your hard work!" Jerome Bonaparte once again thanked Corot.

"It is my honor to be able to paint for the two monarchs!" Ke Luo said respectfully.

After Corot left, Jerome Bonaparte pointed to the canvas and said to Franz Joseph: "This painting is a gift from me too! Please accept it!"

Franz Joseph nodded.

Then, Jérôme Bonaparte ordered his men to call in a photographer, who placed a wooden camera in front of them.

Under the curious gaze of Franz Joseph, Jerome Bonaparte explained to him how the camera worked.

[ps: As a conservative court to the extreme, while rejecting all useless innovations, the Habsburgs also passed on conservative ideas to the next generation.

So Franz Joseph didn't know what the camera, which has been around for more than ten years, actually did.

However, the camera can really take pictures that are not blurred, or after the advent of the "iron plate method"]

"You mean this thing can replace the painter?" Franz Joseph asked Jérôme Bonaparte while pointing at the camera.

"That's right!" Jerome Bonaparte nodded and replied to Franz Joseph: "He can shoot a more realistic picture, and it costs less time and money than a painter!"

"What should those painters do?" Franz Joseph thought of unemployment.

"Franz, the painter is not in conflict with it!" Jerome Bonaparte replied to Franz Joseph seriously.

"Why not conflict? Isn't it able to show a more realistic picture than the painter?" Franz Joseph said to Jerome Bonaparte.

"Sometimes it's not a good thing to be too real!" Jerome Bonaparte showed a meaningful smile at the corner of his mouth. com "Besides, he and the painter serve completely different objects! The painter serves people like us, and it will become a product that enters thousands of households.

The purpose of industrialization is to create a relatively rich world and enrich people's material life.

I believe that one day in the future, people living on this earth will be able to send themselves to the sky by their own power to find out if God exists.

You can also use your own power to dive into the deep sea to explore the unknown.

Franz, we have to run, the world has not allowed us to stand still, any standstill means going backwards. "
