Sadly it failed"

no.362 The First French Republic?

Lucifer fell into deep thought on the side, Pepin was assassinated but failed, which seemed like a trivial matter on the surface, but it also explained some problems invisibly.

The interior of France has begun to be unstable, and it only takes a flame to ignite.

As for the marriage proposal, it is only part of the strategy, and it will definitely be used formally.

And all Mira wanted to do was... ignite this pile of firewood.

"permit.

Since they have had problems internally, we also give them a push.

No matter who wants to kill Pepin, we'll take this opportunity to mess things up in France."

"No problem, leave it to me."

"However, that alone is not enough."

"not enough..."

"Although Rome and Macedonia are not France's troubles for the time being, Britain is.

The armistice is coming to an end, and I need to do something to make them feel like I'm not paying attention to France for a while."

"doing what"

"Didn't Helen send us an invitation before? I'm going to make an appointment."

"They didn't... just send us an invitation, they sent an invitation to the mainland.

But as things stand now, no country other than .

"The Olympic Games!"

There are still Olympic Games in this world, and Lucifer said that he feels very delicate.

Unlike the Olympic Games in the previous world, which were held regularly, the Olympic Games in this world seem to require a so-called divine revelation, which will only be held when the holy flame emerges on Mount Olympus.

In this age where the gods have disappeared, why there is a holy fire there, people don't know.

It is said that although the sacred mountain can be seen, mortals can never reach the top of the mountain.

Lucifer was a little curious about this secret.

"What's the matter, you look nostalgic."

"Nothing, just wanted something fun.

For me, this may be the last leisure time."

"Britain is now enough to support you in a fight.

And our first goal is to..."

"French."

Just as Lucifer and Semiramis were talking about the French strategy, Robespierre, the Count of Barria in France, was holding a secret meeting.

There were more than a dozen people participating in the meeting, most of them were nobles, and there were only three merchants.

They were divided into two factions, the Girondin faction led by the Marquis de Condorcet, and the Jacobin faction led by Robespierre.

Most of them are not motivated by the situation in France in recent years. Driven by this force, they want to build a new France.

and called himself a revolutionary.

In fact, although the situation in France in recent years has not been good, the top beneficiaries have not been hurt because of this. Instead, they have taken the opportunity to make a lot of money. ......Little nobles.

For the small nobles, once the territory loses its vitality due to taxation, the people will automatically leave, and then the ruin of the territory will be accelerated.

If it was just like that, it would be fine, everyone could just get by, but Britain, which was in a very difficult situation before, recovered under Lucifer’s governance.

Most of them had been to Britain and saw the prosperity there.

It's also...accelerating the imbalance in their hearts, and they want a rich life like Britain.

In the dark secret room, magic lights flickered.

Everyone sat around a long table.

"Everyone, the purpose of my invitation to come here today must be clear to everyone, so I won't say anything more here.

We are here for only one purpose, to overthrow the king and establish a France of our own."

Robespierre spoke first.

"Count Robespierre, can we all really build a new France?"

Condorcet hesitated.

After all, their enemies are very powerful, and the power on their side is too weak.

"Of course you can! Five years ago, Britain was not much better than us, but their king has built a new Britain in five years, and cleared away the worms of the country, and since they can do it, so do we. can."

Robespierre's voice was very confident at this time.

"However, the institutional aspects of Britain are quite different from those of France."

The Margaret woman in red, the lord is still a little worried, she is a member of the Girondist faction.

"It turns out that the aristocratic system of the king's head is already suitable for the current era.

We want to build a country that belongs to the people."

After Robespierre finished speaking, it was a tentative question for Baron Mara, who belonged to the Jacobins.

"You mean, we learn the British system"

This...a person who is proficient in law was curious about Lucifer's system, but also became wary.

"It's a good idea. After the reforms were completed, Britain returned to life at a speed visible to the naked eye.

However, the central system centered on the king is no different from a dictatorship, the king of France is out of control and the nobles restrict him, but the king of Britain will be out of control.”

Count Ebel, who was dressed in blue, also spoke at this time, and he was also a member of the Jacobin faction.

"Why do we have a totally British system.

Although Britain has done a good job, it is because they have an excellent king, and they can achieve their maximum potential with the system, but unfortunately, we do not have such a king."

Robespierre continued.

"Then what do you mean"

"The knight king's ability as a king is very good, we have no doubts about this, none of us can outperform, but on the other hand, why should we compare with him alone.

No matter how strong he is, he is only one person, we have 30 people here.

Thirty to one, the odds are up to us."

Speaking of which, Robespierre gestured to the people around him.

Yes, just from the point of view of numbers, if there are 30 of them gathered here, both in terms of strength and wisdom, they should surpass one person.

Many people are powerful, and they believe so firmly.

"Tell me what you think"

I heard Condorcet say calmly here.

He is now a little curious about the new system that Robespierre is talking about.

Condorcet's words seemed to turn on a switch, and Robespierre's expression was very excited at this time.

He opened his arms as if: calling for something.

"Compared to the extreme dictatorship of Britain, I want to build a republic where the people are the main and everyone can get a fair and free republic.

We will have a parliament, which will lead the country and whose members will be elected by the people."

"Oh! Sounds good."

Mara was very interested in it, handing over the country to the people, and just listening to it was wonderful.

Most of the others felt the same way, but only one.

His name was Tocqueville, and he was a wealthy businessman, not a nobleman, who had been introduced to the meeting by Mara because of his mastery of the law.

There are only three businessmen like him, accounting for 10 percent of the meeting.

no.363 Tyranny of the Majority

Only three businessmen participated in this meeting, and it is because of this that it can also show their own excellence.

Otherwise, they won't be seen by them. After all, if this kind of thing leaks, waiting for them will be the result of... annihilation.

"It feels a bit like a senate in Rome."

Tocqueville thought for a moment and said.

"No, the Senate of Rome was born of the nobility, but our parliament can be elected from all the people."

Robespierre speaks out about the difference between the two.

The Senate was born among nobles, but what Robespierre said was to choose representatives from all.

This means that ordinary people also have the opportunity to enter parliament.

This alone is a huge temptation for those who are not willing to be present.

"What about the choice?"

Tocqueville continued to ask.

"Representatives are elected on a regional basis, and everyone who lives on this land has the right to vote.

This is our country, and we can all enjoy the power that a country brings."

"Are all resolutions like this"

"Of course, the next thing can only be done with a vote in parliament.

In this way, we can prevent a repeat of today's tragedy."

"The idea sounds like a good idea, it's just..."

This time, Tocqueville was interrupted by Robespierre before he could finish speaking. He was not very satisfied with this... Not even the nobles had stupid questions about the perfect plan in his heart.

"Do you have any doubts about such a perfect system, Tocqueville"

"No... nothing."

Hearing this, Tocqueville also chose not to ask further questions.

"If you have no doubts, we hereby sign a declaration, and we pledge to give our all to a respectable France."

"For respectful France!"

For a time, such a voice appeared on everyone's lips at the same time, because they were full of confidence in the future because of the new system. As long as the royal family was overthrown and they were in power, France would be reborn, and they believed so.

These people signed their own names in a French declaration one after another as if they had been beaten with blood.

After that, they discussed many plans on how to overthrow the royal family and perfected them.

Finally, they left here in batches.

After the businessman named Tocqueville returned to his home, he asked his servants to wait outside the study, while he entered a dark room in the study.

After unlocking many layers of magical mechanisms, he came to a tunnel.

Through this tunnel, he disguised and came to the farmhouse. After showing the password, he entered the basement of the farmhouse. Here, he met a man who was biased towards women.

"Lord Milan!"

The man of Tocqueville saluted, and at the same time, a crescent moon ring had been added to his finger.

That's proof of allegiance to the Darkmoon.

"Tocqueville, what needs you to come and report to me in person."

Milan looked at Tocqueville, feeling that something big was happening.
