Chapter 22: ,inspiration

　　 "Arrogance! What a curse of arrogance." Obviously, Amon understood Joseph's words.
"Maybe it's not arrogance." Joseph thought for a while and said, "It's just isolation-the isolation between the upper class and the bottom. The French people are full of anger at the upper class, but the upper class may not be aware of it, or even feel it at all. The king and queen are being deprived of it. Surrounded by flattering pets, living in a place where you can't see the bottom layer at all, and no other sound can be heard in their ears, so they still do their own way. This is bad, because it will lead to explosive consequences. If the accumulated anger is not channeled, once it erupts, it will inevitably bring about devastating consequences. Just like floods destroying a dam. Art should actually play two roles at this time. One is to warn the upper class and make them realize Dangerous. Because art is a rare way to make the upper class pay attention to the bottom class. The other is to appease the lower class. For example, Mr. Bomasche’s "The Wedding of Figaro" is actually trying to accomplish such a task. . His irony to the Count of Almaviva is a warning to the upper class, and in the play, he let Figaro get happiness, in a sense, it is also a kind of comfort to the lower class. But now it seems that he The warning weight is insufficient, and it seems that it did not really alert the upper class, and it is difficult to say what the effect of comfort is. So the people of the comedy troupe further increased the power of irony, but from the current point of view, the theater performance has been for several months. Nothing happened to the comedy troupe, and it's probably not effective."
　　 Everyone nodded after listening. Only Fanny didn't seem to understand, so she asked:
　　 "Then, Mr. Bonaparte, if something happens to the comedy troupe, does it mean it has worked?"
"No matter what happens, even if it is the comedy troupe people are caught up in a brain, stuffed into the Bastille to feed the mice, and even one by one is chopped off. That at least shows that the upper class cares about these things. Now it is. , After so long, nothing happened. This only shows that the above doesn't care at all." Joseph replied.
　　 "So, "Le Figaro's Wedding" is not sharp enough." Samuel said.
　　 "Joseph, maybe we should write a more exciting script, I think about it, what should we write..." Amon thought.
　　 "How about writing the story of Charles I? It's the English king whose head was chopped off." Joseph said. He knew that if history did not change much, French King Louis XVI, like Charles I, was finally cut off for treason.
"This is too explicit." Samuel shook his head. "If you write this, you and Amon may really be thrown into the Bastille to feed rats. Moreover, few theater companies dare to perform such acrimonious performances. Things. I think if you really want to write, you should write about North American independence. That is also against the tyrant."
　　 "This seems to be good," Amon said, "Samuel, you have personal experience, and you can help us."
　　 "But North America is lonely overseas. And considering the role that France played in North American independence, we write this, maybe the king thought we were singing the praises of virtue." Joseph said.
　　 "How is this possible? The king is not a fool." Samuel said.
"Nothing is impossible, the king is not, but some guys around him will confuse him and mislead him. Even the scripts and performances that His Majesty the King sees are not necessarily normal." Joseph shook his head. . In his opinion, this similar method of fooling the above is too simple.
　　 "God, how did you think of this? Joseph, you have a chance to be a traitor." Amon looked at Joseph and kept shaking his head.
"You can't insult me ​​like this." Joseph's eyes widened and he retorted with an angry look. "You know, how can a person like me become a traitor? At least he should be a big man. Treacherous minister."
　　 As soon as I said this, everyone laughed, and even Fanny, who was a little worried because Joseph's tone was very harsh at first, laughed disregarding the image.
Amon pressed his belly with his hand and beat the arm of the chair with his hand. After a while, he said: "Joseph, I apologize to you, you will not be a traitor, you will be a big clown... Haha Haha!"
　　 Everyone laughed for a while, and Amon said again: "Stop smiling, really, do you have any suggestions? I'm talking about my new drama."
"Why don't you just write about Spartacus?" Fanny suddenly said, "Well, Spartacus is a resistance from the bottom, this can't be changed, and... and the historical record about him is very brief, this There is ample room for free creation, it should be a good choice!"
Now that Fanny spoke, Amon immediately expressed support: "I think it's good. I almost immediately came up with a series of exciting plots. Well, for example, how Spartacus fights tigers in the arena, For example..."
"For another example, we can allow Spartacus to win through the arena. He has already obtained the qualifications of free men, but he believes that all people should be born free. He believes that overthrowing people, oppressing people, and exploiting others. Human slavery is the responsibility of every kind person. Therefore, although he has won freedom for himself, he is not satisfied with it, but devoted himself to the struggle to liberate all slaves! "Joseph is not afraid of big things because of the excitement. Mentality, and added.
"Yes, yes, yes! We can also speak through Spartacus's mouth,'All human beings are equal, the pursuit of freedom and happiness, and resistance to oppression is the sacred and inalienable right.'" Samuel also hurriedly interrupted. Tao.
　　 "Are you going to let Spartacus from thousands of years ago recite the North American Declaration of Independence? This is too much." Fanny started.
"What else can I do? Let him recite the gospel?" Samuel said, "Although Spartacus was a man thousands of years ago, we wrote about him in order to make him speak our modern needs. the sound of."
"Mr. Fermat is right." Joseph also agreed, "All history is contemporary history. The interpretation of history has always served reality. Let me say, maybe we can be bolder, Apri After the Battle of Asia, Crassou nailed more than 6,000 captured slaves to the cross. We can show this scene on the stage. The slaves who were nailed to the cross were put on the same shape as the Christ on the cross. , Even at this moment, we can prepare a choir to sing a hymn of the rebels."
　　 "This... Joseph... I remember your godfather is a bishop." Amon was a little dumbfounded.
　　 "The bishop also believes that today's churches have deviated from the spirit of Christ in many places." Joseph's face remained honest.
"I think Mr. Bonaparte’s idea is very creative. I think if Mr. Voltaire is still alive, he will definitely like this idea. Well, Mr. Bonaparte, are you good at music?" Fan Ni asked with twinkling eyes.
　　 Joseph listened, smiled and said, "In terms of music, I'm almost illiterate."
　　 "That's it." Fanny was a little disappointed and said, "We are also a bunch of music illiterate here. Who can write this chant of the rebels?"
"Fanny, this is not difficult. We only need to write the lyrics and find a musician to match it with the tune." Amon said, "Of course, good lyrics and good tunes are not easy to get. . Well, I am full of creative desire now."
　　 "Brother, your creative desire will not last even a week." Fanny smiled.
"You are right, Fanny. If I don't have this problem, I will definitely become the new Sophocles. However, I will try my best to control myself. Also, Joseph, you have to help. Me." Amon said.
　　 "If I have time, I will try my best." Joseph said, "But at least recently, I'm afraid I can't help much. You know, I'm busy these days."
　　 "Mr. Bonaparte, what have you been up to lately?" Samuel asked. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
"Joseph has an important experiment to do recently." Armand said, "It seems to be about how to measure the speed of light. My uncle praised the design of this experiment for being very clever. In addition, he also wanted to enter the Paris Military Academy. The math teacher makes some preparations. Well, Joseph, your brother is going to study at the Paris Military Academy. He knows that you are going to be his teacher. Any reaction?"
　　 "I haven't told him yet." Joseph said, "because I want to see him in class suddenly discover how my math teacher is my reaction."
　　 "I can imagine, it will be very interesting." Fanny smiled.
　　 Then the topic turned to how to tease his brother again. Fanny offered some suggestions, and according to her, many of these suggestions were used by his brother to tease her.
　　 Everyone was enthusiastic and offered Joseph advice on how to tease his brother. If it weren't for the butler to come and remind that dinner is ready, these guys don't know how many bad ideas they have to come up with.
　　 "Well, let's go to the restaurant." Viscount Lavoisier stood up and said, "I just got some good bottles of wine..."
　　 The dinner rules at Amang’s house are completely different from those at Joseph’s house. There are no rigid rules at all. Even when eating, everyone can still talk and laugh. Everyone pulled from the red wine of the Viscount Lavoisier all the way to the black tea of ​​Ceylon, then to the mackerel in the Mediterranean, and then to the crocodile and hippo of the Nile. But the French really deserve to be European foodies. I pulled it off. Although there were so many things, there were always only three topics: can they eat? Tasty? how to eat? I have to say that at this point, the French are very similar to the Chinese.
