Chapter 151: , Back to Paris


Barras proposed in the parliament to re-elect the parliament to ensure that the Thermites have a majority; (this is unanimously recognized by everyone) to ensure that the army has its own representative in the parliament; (this point, taking into account the outside Those of the Red Army, everyone agrees) The government should be composed of several people who are highly respected and who have proved their loyalty to the republic in the vote to execute the king; (this, everyone agrees) There must be General Kano who can represent the military; (everyone dare not object to this) Also, since everyone does not understand technical issues, it is easy to be deceived by profiteers. Therefore, there must be talents proficient in military technology in the parliament. (Everyone agrees with this.) In addition, in view of the poor performance of the police department in this rebellion, the police system in Paris must be reorganized. He thinks Fouché can take on this important task.
  For this, many people are not satisfied, because the police department is really a vital department. Who controls this department has too many political benefits. Many people feel that they seem to be able to compete. More people feel that so many vital departments have fallen into the hands of the Ballas faction, it is too...too unbalanced.
   So in this matter, Ballas encountered resistance for the first time. But if even this little resistance cannot be overcome, how can he continue to be an important shareholder of the "military-industrial complex"? So Ballas unceremoniously revealed in the parliament that the family members or subordinates of some of the most fiercely opposed guys had leaked state secrets to the royal party, and he also produced tangible evidence.
   Of course, it is not 1993, and Ballas is not Robespierre, otherwise these congressmen should be guillotined. Ballas magnanimously stated that he did not doubt the loyalty of these congressmen to the Republic. He believed that their families and subordinates had been deceived by cunning royalists. They can't be blamed for this, it's all because the royal party is too cunning. However, these gentlemen are so honest and honest, how can they deal with the cunning royal party members? Therefore, the Minister of Public Security is best left to Fuxie, who has made great contributions to discovering the king's conspiracy.
   "Now, do you have any objections to this?" Ballas asked at last.
Everyone expressed their understanding and approval of this, because everyone was worried that if they did not understand and did not agree, they would immediately be exposed to some scandals. To be honest, who is still a member of the National Assembly now? Very clean? At the time of Robespierre, they should all be guillotined.
   While everyone was vying for these positions, Joseph brought a few bodyguards with revolvers on his waist, and the Fanny family, riding in a carriage, to Fanny's house.
   A few days ago, when the situation in Paris became dangerous, under Foucher's arrangement, Joseph came personally and took the Fanny family out of Paris for refuge. Now everything has subsided, so they can also come back.
Along the way, the Viscountess was worried about whether there would be a thief in her home, or whether... Although Fanny had comforted her and said: "Don't worry, mother. If the thief enters our house, we should be happy, because we There is nothing worth stealing in the house, but maybe the thief accidentally dropped his wallet in our house while looking for the property."
   "Don't talk nonsense," even the Viscount laughed. "Our family is not so poor. At least, we can still afford our little Fanny's dowry."
   Fanny blushed, lowered her head and glanced at Joseph, and stopped talking.
   Fortunately, the carriage has arrived at their door at this time, and everyone can get off.
   got out of the car, and the entourage carried in the luggage and the like. Joseph and the family of Viscount Lavoisier went to sit in the small garden first.
   "Mr. Viscount, Paris should be able to stabilize for some time to come. At least, there should be no major disturbances." Joseph said.
   "So, there will be peace in the future? This is really great, and it would be even better if Amon comes back." The Viscountess said.
   Joseph said without changing his face, "It's not. But life will definitely get better."
   "It will be all right," the Viscount squeezed his eyes. "As long as there is nothing hanging on the street light pole, that's the best... By the way, since Paris is peaceful, when will you come back to Paris, Joseph?"
"Our family will definitely come back to Paris. But this still requires a lot of preparation. Paris is the core of France. Here are the best schools in Paris and the best scientific research resources. Naturally, my institute will move back. But this is a big project, it is not a matter of one or two days. Recently, my friend and I are looking for a suitable location near Paris to use as the address of the new research institute. In addition, your brother, Master Lavoisier, also I miss Paris a bit, after all, Toulon is too small compared to Paris."
   Everyone chatted a few more casually, Joseph got up and left. The Viscount did not send Joseph out because of his bad legs, but asked his daughter Fanny to send him off.
   Fanny sent it out and came back after a long time. When she passed by the front court humming and was about to go back to her room, she heard her father calling her in the small living room: "Fanny! Come here."
   Fannie went to the small living room and saw her old father sitting in the sun on the rocking chair by the window.
   "Dad, what's the matter?"
   "Ah, Fanny, sit down next to me," said the Viscount.
   Fanny walked over and sat down on a chair beside the rocking chair.
   "Did he propose to you?" the Viscount asked suddenly.
   "Ah..." Fanny flushed.
   "Why? This kid is so dishonest? Yeah, or else how could it be that stinky kid's friend... Fanny, no, it can't be like this. If this kid dares to come next time, I will..."
"Dad..." Fanny glared at the Viscount. "He mentioned it before, but... this guy is so annoying, he doesn't even think about whether I agree or not, and just say something about waiting for you to marry me, we No matter what. I said, I haven't decided whether to marry you yet!"
"Oh! Fanny, this is what you are wrong!" The old Viscount said immediately, "You must know that young people like Joseph are not easy to find now. He has a bright future and will become the most important figure in France in the future. Your happiness, you have to hold him tight, otherwise, maybe sometime, a shameless coquettish will come and rob him."
   "Dad! If you say that again, I'll be leaving!" Fanny straightened her face and stood up.
"Okay, okay, I'm not doing it for you? Think about it, how many people like Joseph are thinking about him all day? If you are really angry, then I really don't say anything Up..."
   Fanny sat down again.
   "By the way, this is Dad's good daughter. Listen to me, next time you have this opportunity, you must..."
   "Dad, you say it as if I can't get married!"
"Why can't my daughter get married? There are more men in Paris than in the Atlantic Ocean. But Fanny, you know, who to marry is really important to a woman. It's like fishing. , Catching tuna and catching sardines are both catching fish, but the difference is too big. In addition, you really have to pay attention to it, know that although there are many fish in the sea, if the bait is soaked in the sea for a long time ..."
   Just as the Viscount was talking with Fanny, Joseph also rode a carriage back to his residence, only to find that Lucien had disappeared.
   "Mr. Bonaparte, Master Joseph is out, as if someone invited him to a banquet. He also left you a piece of paper." Aunt Sophie handed him a piece of paper.
   "Oh." Joseph answered, taking the paper.
   It said on the paper that he had gone to La Paz, and asked Joseph not to wait for him.
   "Damn, this guy is going to eat delicious food by himself!" Joseph said, but Joseph didn't want to show up too much in such occasions, so it would be nice to have a younger brother in front.
  Since Lucien is not here, Joseph directly asks Aunt Sophie to make dinner. After dinner, he went into his study and considered several plans for moving the institute to Paris.
"Directly in Paris? A lot of things are convenient, but too crowded, and the place is too small~EbookFREE.me~ Some experiments are not easy to do. Well...the original manor of the Duke of Orléans? It's not even far from Paris. It's far away, and the place is big...It's a little far away from the Red Army station...and here, it's a little farther from Paris, but it's closer to the Red Army, and the various terrains are richer, so maybe it's here. , I just need to widen the road by myself and spend more money..."
  While hesitating, the sound of the key turning in the door lock suddenly came from outside. Joseph put the plans down, walked out of the study, and then saw Lucien coming in with the smell of brandy.
   "Going to eat in a place like this, you dare to really drink so much alcohol?" Joseph frowned and began to think about how to strengthen his brother's education.
   "No, no..." Lucien's words are clear, "If you don't believe it, you smell it, the wine is all on your clothes. When I drink at that kind of old man, how can I really drink it?"
   "Really?" Joseph stepped forward and really sniffed with his nose. It was true that the smell of alcohol was basically on the clothes.
   "Well, you still know how to adapt. But there shouldn't be anyone who can drink you wine? Why do you spill so much on your body?"
   "Who said no?" Lucian said, "There was a lady who attended the banquet, and she kept chatting with me and drinking. I don't know how she can drink so well.
   "Are you playing tricks when drinking with a woman? Well, that woman is very beautiful?"
   "It's very beautiful," Lucian said.
   "What's that woman's name?" Joseph's heart suddenly had a guess.
