Chapter 56: , Detachment of Women

　　 "Joseph, the new decree passed by the Constituent Assembly." As soon as Joseph came home, Lucien shook a newspaper in his hand and shouted to him.
　　 "Lucien has become more and more interested in politics during this period of time." Thinking about this, Joseph asked, "They passed the Declaration of Human Rights?"
Joseph's history in his last life was learned from his physical education teacher (this is normal, anyway, for Joseph in his previous life, it is enough for history to pass the college entrance examination, but not for the college entrance examination. Why do you learn so much? If you have this time, it is better to come. Two math problems are overwhelming.) Therefore, Joseph also knows a "Declaration of Human Rights" about the literature during the Revolution.
　　 "No, no!" Lucien said, "It's a decree announcing the abolition of all feudal rights."
　　 "What? Show me?" Joseph was taken aback. He knows that recent uprisings or riots have broken out in rural areas. (How to call the actions of these farmers depends on the speaker's ass.) According to his understanding, France, which is in a state of close to anarchy, does not have many good solutions for these farmers. The Constituent Assembly does have plans to appease the farmers. But the decree was released so quickly, and with such a strong force?
"It's unscientific!" Joseph said. "This kind of thing involves all aspects of interest. It is as complicated as the knot of Goldium (a very complicated knot in the legend. It is said that if anyone can untie this knot, You can become the king of Asia. Later, Alexander the Great used a direct sword to cut the knot.) Without Alexander’s sword, it would be impossible to untie it. Today’s Constituent Assembly does not have a Alexander the Great. How did they do it? Get it and show me."
　　 Lucien handed Joseph the newspaper, and Joseph sat down on the sofa and looked at it carefully.
　　 After looking at it for a while, Joseph couldn't help laughing.
　　 "Joseph, why are you laughing?" Lucien asked.
"I laugh at the king's bravery, and the Constituent Assembly is shameless." Joseph pretended to be ruthless, but Lucien didn't even know the stalk, Joseph continued: "Look at this decree, it really treats the peasants as fools. Haha,'all feudal obligations are abolished', but those involving money, such as land rent and in-kind tributes, must be redeemed, and the redemption money must be in place all at once-the amount of 30 years must be paid at one time, and the farmers must be able to do it all at once If you spend so much money, then I will be a farmer! What's more, look again, here, the redemption is based on the village, which means that in a village, as long as one family can’t afford so much money, then Can’t redeem... and here, the redemption requires the consent of both parties-that is to say, as long as the masters disagree, even if you have money, you can’t redeem it. Isn’t this drawing a piece of bread for hungry people to eat? Treat the farmer as a fool. You say it is ridiculous."
"Well, this is really fooling people. But Joseph... I wonder if some people themselves don't want to calm the chaos in the countryside. Anyway, as long as it is not him, it will do. Besides, this decree still needs the king Approval can only take effect. I am afraid it is difficult for the king to deal with this problem now, right?" Lucien frowned.
　　 "Lucien," Joseph said in surprise, "this is what you thought of yourself? Not bad, I think you are going to catch up with that idiot Napoleon!"
　　 Lucien knows that this is really a compliment, although the implication of this seems to be that he can't keep up with some fool. But Lucien has always believed that his second brother is definitely a genius.
　　 "You said before that although some people can't do anything on their own, they are still good at making trouble. At this time, it should be time for them to make trouble." Lucien replied.
　　 As Lucien said, now King Louis XVI is worried about the "August Decree" that was submitted informally by the Constituent Assembly.
"Your Majesty, you can't approve this kind of thing!" Queen Mary's face was pale with anger, "If you approve such a ridiculous thing, you will lose the support of the nobles. This is simply the traditional death sentence in France! "
　　 "I know this!" said theoretically the most powerful man in France, "but if I dismiss it directly, it will definitely provoke new violence! Some people are waiting for such a thing!"
But these words made the queen even more angry: "You are always scared, always scared! The more you are like this, the less those guys will not put you in their eyes. The power that is loyal to you will be because of your delay and Fear and low morale, the rebels who oppose you will be triumphant because of this. You are constantly attacking your own people and constantly strengthening your enemies! I really don’t know how a person like you can become the King of France!"
　　 "I didn't want to be the king of France." Louis XVI whispered.
"Yes, you just want to be a hunter and a locksmith. Maybe one day, when we lose the French crown and live in a foreign land, you can still use your locksmith craftsmanship to feed the family." The queen sneered angrily. Tao, then stood up, walked out of the room, and closed the door heavily.
　　 Louis XVI sighed, got up, and walked into a small room on the right-that's where he studied various locks. During these times, only there can he be a little happy for a while. Anyway, this decree was only submitted to the Constituent Assembly in an informal way, that is to say, it seems that it can be delayed...
　　 King Louis XVI adopted an ostrich policy against the "August Decree". He left the "August Decree" submitted by the Constituent Assembly without issue, and neither explicitly opposed nor approved it.
　　 Just as the queen predicted, some nobles following the king began to move abroad one by one. It is said that they went abroad to gain the support of the king throughout Europe, but it is undeniable that as these people leave one after another, the power of the king is constantly being weakened.
　　 Food prices in Paris continue to rise, and there are various rumors that fly together with food prices. Among these rumors, there are some that are the most widely circulated.
　　 The first widely circulated rumor is that the reason Paris is short of food is because the rural areas in other provinces are in chaos and there are rioting farmers everywhere. The peasants rioted because the king stubbornly refused to approve the "August Decree."
　　 Another widely circulated rumor is that the lack of food in Paris is due to someone deliberately preventing food from entering Paris. So who is doing such a thing? The answer is, of course, those "stubborns" who support the tyrant. This is because they struggled with it and Paris could not get sufficient food supplies.
　　According to Jue Wei's experience, there is a secret to deceiving people, that is, except for the most critical places, you must tell the truth as much as possible in other places. These two rumors are very consistent with Wei Jue's experience.
　　The villages in other provinces are in chaos, and there are rebel farmers everywhere. This is indeed true. It is also true that the King did not approve the "August Decree". But in fact, the Constituent Assembly did not officially hand over the final draft of the "August Decree" to the King until October 1. In other words, there was no "August Decree" requiring the King's approval before that. In addition, the peasants' rebellion started in July. At that time, there was no "August Decree". The chaos in other provinces is actually not more serious than it was in July.
　　 As for people who are intentionally preventing food from entering Paris and raising food prices, this is also true, but the people who do this are not the king, but a certain nobleman and a group of decent people of the third rank following his actions. They took this opportunity to make a lot of fortune, but they threw all the black pots on the king's head.
　　 In such an uneasy situation, it was October 1789. Generally speaking, July and August are the harvest season for French wheat. By the end of August at most, the wheat in various places should have been harvested. This year, the wheat harvest in France has been bumper, and the news has spread to Paris long ago. Everyone thinks that a bumper harvest of wheat will definitely bring down the price of bread. However, until October, the price of bread is still rising steadily and sustainably.
　　With the gradual departure of the nobles who supported the king's government~EbookFREE.me~ The king's family felt more and more difficult to ensure their own safety, so at the end of September, the king transferred the Flemish army to near Versailles. The Flanders region is relatively conservative and has a strong royal party. The legions in this area, in the eyes of ordinary people, are more supportive of the king.
　　 On October 1st, the King hosted a banquet for the officers of the Flemish Legion. Just after this banquet, a rumor spread through various newspapers in Paris:
　　 When the banquet reached the end, the king's family appeared at the banquet. The officers of the Flemish Legion cheered to the king and threw the red, white and blue cockades representing Paris and the National Guard on the ground.
　　 The news spread quickly in Paris, and fear reappeared. The people didn't know that compared to the time in July, the king's power had actually been severely weakened, and it was no longer a real threat to Paris. In their view, after months of deliberate preparation, the king must have more troops to suppress Paris. Paris is dangerous. They must stand up and defend themselves with weapons in their hands.
　　 On the afternoon of October 4, after finishing dinner for Joseph and the others, Aunt Sophie proposed that she needed a day off tomorrow.
　　 "Is there something in your house?" Joseph asked.
　　In this era, Joseph is definitely the best employer for a maid doing housework. There is no one. Because to a certain extent, he still retains the habit of treating those housekeeping aunts in his previous life. Very concerned about their lives.
　　 "Ah, sir, I'm fine at home. But we women, yes, some women in Harleh District and St. Anthony District have contacted, and we will go to the City Hall tomorrow and ask them to help us solve the bread problem."
