Make France Great Again - Chapter 886
De Luyens’ praise did not make Jerome Bonaparte feel the slightest pride, but instead sounded the alarm in his heart again.
In this world, not only France knows about reform, but other countries are also trying their best to catch up.
Therefore, France cannot be a little slack, and reform must go all out.
“This shows that war is a whetstone to test the results of reform. In the last war in Crimea, our army and people passed the test of war!
Our quality of life has not been the same as in the previous war, because the pace of the war has stalled, and even entered a short-lived prosperity!
This is a huge improvement and I hope our next battle will be like the Crimean War! Of course, I myself do not like war, because war will bring endless pain! “Jérôme Bonaparte made a point of emphasis, and then said to De Lu Yins with a solemn expression, “Mr. Lu Yinsi, the assistance of your Ministry of Foreign Affairs is indispensable for this! ”
“Your Majesty, please rest assured!” De Lu Yins responded solemnly to Jerome Bonaparte: “Our foreign affairs department will definitely do our best to avoid war as much as possible while safeguarding the interests of France!”
“That’s good! Thank you for your hard work!” Jerome Bonaparte said to De Lu Yins with a smile and nodding.
…
De Luyens, who was returning to the Orsay Pier in a carriage, closed his eyes and pondered, until the driver of the carriage reminded him of his arrival at the Orsay Pier, De Luyens got off the carriage, and then After taking two steps forward, he stopped and stood side by side with the car.
“Your Excellency, what’s the matter with you?” Looking at the contemplative De Lu Yinsi, Che Pi asked curiously.
De Lu Yinsi, who had regained his senses, hurriedly shook his head and responded, “It’s nothing!”
Then, he added: “Can I trouble you with one thing!”
“Please tell me! As long as it is something I can do, I will definitely do it for you!” Che Pi flattered and said to De Lu Yinsi.
“Can you work hard again and send me to the Spanish embassy!” De Lu Yinsi asked Che Pi in a consultative tone.
“Of course!” Che Pi replied to De Lu Yinsi without hesitation, “Get in the car! Your Excellency Minister!”
“Thank you!” De Lu Yinsi nodded slightly, turned and sat back in the carriage.
The carriage carrying De Lu Yinsi set off again, and soon De Lu Yinsi arrived at the gate of the Spanish Embassy.
“Your Excellency, we are here!” The driver who stopped the carriage reminded De Lu Yinsi in the carriage again.
“I see!” De Lu Yinsi said as he opened the car door and came to the front of the car.
I saw that he took out a French bank note worth 50 francs and handed it over to the cart: “Thank you for your hard work! Accept this!”
Looking at the bank notes (also called banknotes) that De Lu Yinsi handed over, Che Pi’s eyes flashed with greed, but he did not accept it, but shook his head and said to De Lu Yinsi, “Your Excellency Minister. , I can’t take your money!”
“What? Too little dislike?” De Lu Yinsi said to Che Pi half-jokingly.
“No!” Che Pi shook his head to De Lu Yinsi, and responded with a serious expression, “When Director Basilio came up, he stipulated that no one in the Tuin-Lely Palace can ask others for anything in any name. Money, even if it is given by others!
If anyone is found to be breaking the rules, they will be fired!
Your Excellency, please don’t hurt me! I’m very happy with the job I’m doing now, and it’s not nearly the end of the year, and the head of Basilio has promised to give us dividends! ”
There was a hint of longing for the future in Che Pi’s eyes, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously filled with a smile.
“Then I’ll keep it myself!” De Lu Yinsi took back the 50 francs.
“Your Excellency, do you need me to wait for you here!” Che Pi asked De Lu Yinsi again.
“No need! I’ll wait for a while and return to the Orsay Dock!” De Lu Yinsi shook his head and replied to the chariot, “You should go back and return to your life!”
“En!” Cha Pi drove the carriage towards the direction it came from, and gradually disappeared from De Lu Yinsi’s sight.
“This Basilio is really an excellent manager!” De Lu Yinsi couldn’t help but sighed, then turned and walked towards the door of the Spanish embassy.
De Lu Yinsi, who arrived at the gate of the Spanish embassy, knocked on the door of the embassy lightly with his hand. After a while, a voice came from the embassy. The owner of the voice asked who De Lu Yinsi was and who came to the embassy. What is the purpose.
De Lu Yinsi answered the question of the owner of the voice truthfully. The door of the embassy opened, and a blond guy about 28 or 9 years old appeared in front of De Lu Yins.
Looking at the blond boy in front of him, De Lu Yins remembered the scene when he was the secretary in the Madrid embassy. At that time, De Lu Yinsi was as young as him, and he was already 52 years old in a blink of an eye.
Thinking of this, De Lu Yinsi showed a kind smile at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes became very kind.
“Minister Lu Yinsi, hello!” The blond boy standing opposite De Lu Yinsi looked nervously at the imperial minister in front of him, and suddenly blurted out Spanish.
“Young man, is your ambassador at home now? If he is, please take me to meet him!” De Lu Yins looked at the blond boy kindly and responded in Spanish.
The blond boy was stunned for a moment, and then he said, “Please come with me!”
Under the leadership of the blond boy, De Luyens came to Rafael Descarte, Spanish Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary to France.
Rafael Descarte, who saw that the visitor was actually the French Minister of Foreign Affairs of De Luyens, showed a look of surprise on his face. He did not understand why De Luyens arrived without prior notice. embassy.
However, since De Lu Yinsi was here, Rafael Descarte had to deal with De Lu Yinsi with 100% enthusiasm and 200% caution.
“Your Excellency, welcome to the embassy!” Rafael Descarte stretched out his hand and said to De Lu Yins in French.
De Lu Yins also apologized to Rafael Descarte in French: “Mr. Descarte, please forgive my sudden visit!”
“It’s nothing!” Rafael Descart shook his head and politely said to De Lu Yins: “On behalf of the Spanish Embassy, I warmly welcome your presence, Your Excellency Minister!”
Afterwards, Rafael Descarte and De Lu Yinsi sat on the sofa, and the blond boy who led De Lu Yinsi acted as the translator for this conversation.
(Whether it’s De Lu Yinsi or Rafael Descarte, they don’t actually need an interpreter, it’s just because of the unspoken rules of diplomacy, so he was asked to act as an interpreter.
If Ambassador Rafael Descarte met Jérôme Bonaparte alone, he would not need to bring an interpreter at all. )
“Your Excellency Ambassador, our Ministry of Foreign Affairs has recently received a message concerning the interests of our two countries in the Kingdom of Morocco!
…If our two countries can reach a consensus on this issue, it would be even better…” De Luyins told the Spanish ambassador in lengthy diplomatic rhetoric about the ongoing diplomatic crisis in the Kingdom of Morocco.
After listening to De Lu Yinsi’s speech, the translator sitting next to him immediately translated it into Spanish.
After the secretary had finished translating all of De Lu Yinsi’s words, Rafael Descarte quickly asked De Lu Yinsi, “Your Excellency Minister, I don’t know what you are talking about!”
Rafael Descart replied, De Lu Yins is a hundred people who don’t believe it.
Although it is said that Spain’s strength is not as good as before, but to say that they do not know anything, it is too underestimated by the old powers.
De Lu Yins was certain in his heart that Lafayette Descarte must know something.
In order to cooperate with Rafael Descart’s performance, De Luyens also showed a surprised expression on his face, “Mr. Ambassador, do you really not know the agreement signed between the Kingdom of Morocco and the Kingdom of Britain?”
(in translation…)
“What agreement?” Rafael Descarte still pretended to be ignorant and asked De Lu Yins.
De Luyens told Rafael Descart about the treaty signed between the Kingdom of Morocco and the Kingdom of Britain, and Rafael Descarte showed appropriate surprise on his face, “It’s too bad! What happened to the Kingdom of Morocco? To be able to sign such an irresponsible treaty!
They are simply irresponsible to their country! ”
“Our Majesty thinks so too!” De Lu Yins said to Rafael Descarte.
“Your Majesty the Emperor of your country!” Rafael Descarte was slightly surprised. He didn’t expect Jerome Bonaparte to pay attention to such trivial matters.
“That’s right! Our Majesty hopes to join the Kingdom of Spain for irresponsible actions against the Kingdom of Morocco. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com condemns it!” De Lu Yinsi said righteously to Rafael Descarte, “Only in this way can the Kingdom of Morocco realize its own mistakes… I don’t know if the Kingdom of Spain has any intentions about this!”
After Rafael Descarte listened to De Lu Yinsi’s speech, he immediately understood that De Lu Yinsi was planning to pull them together.
Facing the olive branch handed over by the French Empire, Rafael Descarte said directly without thinking: he would do his best to persuade Madrid to condemn the Moroccan Kingdom together with the French Empire.
The reason why he gave such a guarantee was to bring the relationship with the French Empire closer.
From 1848 to 1856, for nearly eight years, the relationship between the Kingdom of Spain and France has been in a state of indistinctness.
During this time, France reemerged as one of the most important powers in Europe at a speed visible to the naked eye, and dominated part of European affairs.
Now that I finally have the opportunity to have a relationship with France, Rafael is naturally unwilling to let it go.
