In the morning, Georgiana went to the church next to the shaft.

She didn't take anyone with her, she went alone, and she was the only one in the whole church.

In fact, she really wanted to listen to a symphony performance in the church, but in this seaside resort town, it was not as easy to find a symphony orchestra as in Rouen, so she had to close her eyes and imagine that she was listening to a song.

The British royal family from Hanover also suffered from madness like the family of the Grand Duke of Lorraine. Georgiana once thought why the Prince of Wales didn't depose George III, who had been crazy several times, and became the new king himself.

This may be the reason why Kaspar Hauser was only imprisoned, but not killed. After all, it takes a wolf-hearted heart to attack one's own flesh and blood relatives, which is very difficult for people to do.

Even in the families of nobles and emperors, there are only a few who can kill relatives and rise to the top. Most people are still human, but some families are not necessarily, because newspapers and ethics dramas often see how to fight for inheritance. drama code.

Napoleon did not decide to be in power for life, but to continue this temporary position with a term actually took a lot of risks, and a surprise attack could overthrow him.

But the point is who's next, and if a man snoops on the position because of his vulgar ambitions, what does he do in the face of national peril?

As a lifetime ruling, one assassination can end him, and the hereditary system can guarantee that Napoleon will be replaced by other members of the Bonaparte family after his death. It is not enough to kill him alone, he has to overthrow the entire regime. OK.

In the history of the Eastern Roman Empire, there was an emperor named Phocas. He also started as a soldier and started as a military coup.

After he ascended the throne as emperor, he massacred opponents in the capital until he completely lost his mind. Finally, the city defense forces of Constantinople rebelled and cut off his crazy head. They opened the city to welcome Heraclius as the new the emperor.

Georgiana has been trying to persuade Napoleon to "retire". From a certain point of view, she is indeed a "spy" sent by an enemy country. Once Napoleon abdicates, it is almost inevitable that there will be turmoil, even larger than the French Revolution.

The idea of ​​the constitution weakens the prestige of the old royal family, the noble blood is subject to the common good, whether Marie Antoinette is wronged or not, the king can no longer link his small coffers with the national treasury as in the past .

He could not live a life of luxury while the common people were poor, and he also ordered public expenditures to be published.

Although it is not like the Queen of England who later announced her expenditure for hair, Georgiana can no longer spend as freely as the mistress of the king in the old days.

Such privileges as Stephanie, Paulina, and Catherine are based on the premise that they sacrificed their own marriages. This is the case for political marriages. They won't give her a good face, and she can only bite the bullet and marry. She can't even get together like ordinary women to complain about her mother-in-law.

Well, the palace, how could it be the same as the market, basically those women who entered the upper class by virtue of their beauty will disappear without a trace after a short period of glory, and it is not so easy to stay, unless they are with Madame Dubarry There is also a man behind the scenes to make plans.

The English did not teach Georgiana how to do it behind her back, they only told her to keep Bonaparte loving her.

With the current situation, whether it is the end of Napoleon's term of office or a surprise attack in the middle that caused him to step down suddenly, France will inevitably fall into another turmoil. Not going on an expedition to Russia means that many soldiers will not freeze to death in the ice and snow, there will be enough troops for civil war, and Napoleon will be in power for life, and those who also want to be leaders will have no chance. At that time, will there be any saints? People like Just went to the frontier to resist foreign countries.

Napoleon has retired and left office. If you want him to go back, you have to "invite" him back. Of course, no one is willing to invite this dictator back. This is not the East. You have to "invite" two or three times before you "reluctantly agree" to become emperor .

It's like a guy chasing after a pretty girl, she's used to being pursued, and suddenly she finds that the guy chasing her isn't chasing her anymore. She may feel that it doesn't matter, anyway, there are suitors behind her, and she may feel lost.

It would be fine if the surprise attack and assassination achieved the effect, but if the effect was not achieved, it would only strengthen Napoleon's position, or he would not be able to bear the enormous pressure and become the lifelong ruler again, and then proclaim himself emperor.

The disadvantage of not establishing authority is that everyone wants to "try". After establishing authority, many people will choose to obey because of authority.

People are going to die, sometimes you can't stop him.

Napoleon liked to play "pure little games", but he didn't like gambling, that is, playing cards for a small amount of money, and he would return the money he won to others, because these small games could make him temporarily forget his own heavy burden.

And he will mercilessly ban people who are involved in gambling, even if those people are betting on tennis?

Now she also wants to have a good rest, think about nothing, empty her head, and enjoy the pleasure of an empty mind.

At this time, she began to recall the artwork, what to give to the Rouen Museum of Art.

Then a picture appeared in her mind. There is a group of sculptures in a cave, a man surrounded by a group of fairies, his feet are about to stick into a basin.

It was a sculpture by François Girardon, a representative of academic classicism during the Louis XIV period. Georgiana had seen his drawings at the Sculpture Academy of the Louvre.

She likes to see that the stone has a soft touch like cloth and muscle. This group of sculptures is definitely of French origin, but Georgiana thinks that Denon will probably be reluctant.

There is an extraordinary natural element to the group of sculptures placed in the cave, after all, there is Apollo in the dark cave.

Otherwise, it is another work, Heracles fights Achelous, in Achelous fights for the beauty Deianira, he turns into a bull when he fights Heracles, but Heracles Les broke off a horn, which was turned into a "treasure horn" by Deianira. After the defeat, he hid in the Tuas River and became the river god.

Hercules married Deianira, but at a banquet, the son of Alceterus accidentally spilled the footwashing water on Hercules' hands, which was later accidentally killed by Hercules. Killed.

It's impolite to get footwashing water on other people's hands, but as for killing people?

The strange thing is that Alcateros actually forgave Hercules. In order to avoid accidents, Heracles took his wife and left Tiryns. On the way, they had to cross the Eunos River. He was in charge of carrying people across the river, but he also took a fancy to the beautiful Deianila and wanted to drive her away, but was shot by Hercules with a poisoned arrow. Before he died, he told Deianila La, if Hercules later changes his mind for her and smears the centaur's blood on his clothes, he will love her more than any woman.

Of course, this is not a love potion, but a kind of poison. Deianila believed the words of the centaurs. Later, Hercules really changed his mind because he participated in the Trojan War.

Is it because of Helen again? Deianira misunderstood, Hercules "really" didn't think about it that way, but Deianira still smeared the blood of the centaur on Hercules' clothes, and then Hercules just Burned to death, became Hercules after death.

"What are you thinking?" Leon asked her suddenly.

"I'm thinking of Hercules and the Sun God." She opened her eyes and looked at him, who was wearing the black dress with gold tassels again today "Do you think that sculpture is more suitable for the Rouen Museum of Art? "

He looked up at the crucifix on the eye niche.

"Let's go." He let Georgiana take his arm and left the altar.

I didn't realize how much they looked like newlyweds who had just sworn oaths in front of the priest.

Of course, she is not that stupid. As they walked, she talked about Francois Girardon. He was a student of the Italian sculptor Bernini. It's classicism, not baroque.

Is what she said nonsense? Anyway, someone listened, and the audience was the First Consul of France, whose time was precious. It was incredible.

When they walked out of the solemn church, the sun was shining outside. Today seemed to be another sunny day. Seagulls were flying and there were several ships docked in the port, including the Pomona.

"We won't go by land anymore." Leon said with a smile, "From today onwards we will take a boat."

"How did you do it?" she asked in disbelief.

However, he didn't answer her question, as if he didn't hear her, and went down the mountain with his hands behind his back, looking like a "master" herding sheep in southern Italy.
