King's Landing in France

Chapter 302 The Prestige Lord Frost

Chapter 302 The Prestige Lord Frost

Relying on An Ning's great reputation, the two who were about to end their friendship were forcibly pulled back from the brink of rupture.

But the atmosphere between the two is still very awkward.

An Ning also understood, after all, the two of them almost tore their faces apart just now, and the cruel words came out of their mouths, and then he stepped on the brakes with his foot.

No wonder it's not embarrassing.

An Ning could only patch it up again: "By the way, Danton, I was the one who reported Paul Barras, and I blocked this letter from Mrs. Beauarne to Paul Barras."

Yes, there is hatred for me, so that I will not break with Robespierre.

Dandong looked at An Ning in surprise: "You also intercepted Mrs. Beauarney's letter to Ballas? Why?"

"Because my fiancée guessed that there was something in this letter that would be detrimental to the Republic, and she was right. Ballas put his own interests first, even at the expense of the interests of France.

"Under such circumstances, the civil strife among the Jacobins will only make the remnants of the Girondists happy. Barras, who is looking forward to such things, can no longer be trusted."

An Ning stared at Dandong while talking: "And the same is true for Mrs. Beauharne, who has a close relationship with him. It is best for your wife to go to Malmaison Castle as little as possible."

Danton: "I don't care about women's social circles."

"You have to take care of it, it's very important." An Ning emphasized that this is to prevent Dandong from continuing to be influenced by Boarne.

Danton: "Well, you are our leader, you have the final say. But Maximilian, even if it's Andy's report, you can't just make a hasty decision to send someone to the guillotine."

"Of course there will be a trial, and everything will conform to procedural justice." Robespierre spread his hands, "I will not be ambiguous on this point. I am a lawyer, a qualified lawyer."

Danton: "You better be."

An Ning: "Of course he is."

In order to prevent the two from clashing again, An Ning quickly changed the subject: "Also, I think Barras is obliged to come to Paris and explain clearly what is said in this letter."

What An Ning actually thought at this time was, if there was only one order for Balas to come back to report on his work, would Balas misunderstand and run away overnight.

If he did, Murat could be ordered to hunt him down in the name of catching a traitor, life or death.

Of course, it would be better if it was dead.

An Ning suddenly discovered that there was actually quite a lot of bad water in her stomach.

Danton: "Indeed, I also want to hear why he wants to provoke me and Maximilian, we are close friends."

An Ning looked at Dandong and couldn't help complaining: "You have the nerve to say that, if I hadn't been there just now, your friendship would have ended forever."

"How is it possible!" Danton said nonchalantly, "This is nothing more than countless quarrels between friends. I have said more cruel things than this. I wish Maximilian would never have a wife."

Robespierre: "This is obviously a blessing. Falling in love and getting married are meaningless wastes of time and energy..."

An Ning coughed: "I'm going to get married soon..."

Danton and Robespierre looked at him together in shock.

Dandong: "You guys are finally planning to hold the wedding. This is a great thing!"

Robespierre: "It is a beautiful thing for lovers to marry each other."

You just said that getting married is a meaningless waste of time and energy!

Dandong: "Just now you said that getting married is a meaningless waste of time and energy!"

Robespierre: "Did I say it? Well, yes, I said it, but it depends on who gets married. It's a waste of time and energy for me to get married."

An Ning: "Why? I think the landlord's wife is pretty good."

"Well, don't say that about the beautiful new woman who insists on independence," Robespierre said.

An Ning and Dandong exchanged glances, Dandong's face was covered with the words "I see something interesting".

An Ning also felt that it might be possible to make Robespierre and his landlord a pair. The appearance of his wife might soften Robespierre's attitude and prevent him from falling into obsession like in real history.

Afterwards, the three chatted for a while, and then Dandong stood up and said goodbye: "Okay, it's time to prepare for the National Assembly. Maybe we will discuss it late into the night again today."

"Yes, everyone is very enthusiastic about the establishment of a new constitution." Robespierre said with some pride, "The characteristics of the republic are undoubtedly revealed, and various beneficial ideas are constantly coming together. This is the age of the kingdom. Something that never happened before.”

An Ning: "After all, nobles are too stupid."

Napoleon in the real history once said that his greatest achievement was the Napoleonic Code, but in fact this code began to be compiled after the Jacobins came to power. Many celebrities in the Great Revolution contributed their efforts, but in the end they were crowned Napoleon's name.

An Ning: "The code is a very important job, Maximilian, why don't you temporarily step back from your current position and concentrate on compiling the code? This will reduce your burden, and leave the rest to me and Danton. .”

That's right, if Robespierre concentrates on compiling the code, he will definitely be able to avoid the worst outcome.

This is a small challenge launched by the windmill knight Don Quixote Anning to the indescribable existence.

Robespierre actually showed a serious expression on his face.

After a while, he shook his head: "No, I can't concentrate on compiling the law yet. When I finish my term in the National Assembly, I will naturally concentrate on organizing the compilation of the law."

An Ning remembered that in real history, Robespierre hadn't even finished a parliamentary term before being guillotined by the Thermidors.

"Okay, you will finish this term safely." An Ning said with determination.

Robespierre looked at An Ning strangely: "Of course I will finish this term safely. The law and order in Paris has been much better recently."

That's right, the guillotine kept rattling, and the criminals who were caught were hacked straight away. It's no wonder that the law and order is not good.

Take a step back and consider that the Jacobins' policy of terror at least kept Paris safe.

An Ning: "Then I will take my leave. When Barras returns to Paris, I will attend the inquiry meeting of the National Salvation Committee."

Dandong: "Observe? You can host!"

An Ning waved her hand: "No, no, it's better not to be special. I'm a soldier, so I'm not suitable to preside over this kind of thing."

After all, France is not South Korea, and it doesn't have that tradition—it's not right, Lafayette was a soldier who dominated the National Assembly before.

Thinking about it this way, when An Ning needs it in the future, he can also send out an empty army... No, it is to send out the direct guard cavalry.

While he was thinking about this, Danton changed the question: "By the way, when is the wedding?"

"It should be before we head to the Rhineland. Christina and his father are already preparing, and it will take some time to complete the preparations."

Robespierre: "Then I'm looking forward to it."

"Are you looking forward to the wedding, or to the Rhine?" An Ning asked.

Robespierre: "I'm looking forward to both. I'm also looking forward to you bringing back the head of the royal party who fled abroad."

An Ning: "I will, believe me Maximilian, I will."
