King's Landing in France

Chapter 305
As soon as Robespierre arrived at the National Salvation Committee, he saw Saint-Just walking towards him with a strange expression.

"Maximilian, come!" Saint-Just said and dragged Robespierre into the tea room next to him.

"Barras is looking for you?"

Robespierre nodded: "Yes, he came and said a lot of things, but I didn't have anything to say to this kind of speculator, so I ignored him! He must have exploded."

Said Robespierre smiled, like a naughty boy who has completed a prank.

Saint-Just said seriously: "After he hit a wall on your side, he went to find Dandong."

The smile on Robespierre's face froze.

"Dandong? He went directly to Dandong after leaving me?"

"I don't know if he came to me directly, but judging from the time, he should not have time to go to other places. Dandong received him."

Robespierre: "What did he say?"

"I don't know, I met him at the door of Dandong, I went to Dandong's house this morning to show him the speech I drafted, and I have a speech in the parliament this afternoon.

"We talked for half an hour, then I said goodbye and met Ballas at the door."

Robespierre bit his lip: "They really colluded together!"

Saint-Just said again: "Also, Danton commented on you, saying that you regard many people as enemies of the Republic, and you have never had a good face towards those people. It sounds like he is very dissatisfied with this."

Robespierre: "Damn, what's wrong with being cold to the enemy! We have been kind to the enemy, and I called everyone to stop the violence after the September tragedy, and then?

"Then Mara was assassinated by a despicable and shameless enemy! Kindness to an enemy is cruelty to a friend. How could he not understand Dandong! He has a better relationship with Mara than I do!"

Saint-Just: "You're right, I support your approach, so I'm here to tell you."

Robespierre gritted his teeth with his thumb: "But I can't turn against Danton, Frost will be sad, that person is very kind, and I don't want to see good friends turn against each other."

Saint-Just: "Mr. Frost is the kindest person I have ever met. Have you seen the painting of General Frost Attending the Funeral of an Unknown Italian by David? Watch him take the When I saw the flowers of the little Italian girl, I was completely moved."

"Yes, so I can't fall out with Danton, no. No matter how bad he says about me, I will continue to treat him as a close friend." Robespierre shook his head, "But Barras! No wonder Danton He will come here angrily to avenge Barras, so that's what happened!"

**
Ballas stood up immediately after listening to Danton's narration: "Is General Frost suspicious of me? I thought the general didn't care about politics!"

"Frost suspected that you were going to drive a wedge between me and Robespierre, so he made such a move. He really doesn't care about politics." Danton said, "At the first National Convention—then it was called In the Constituent Assembly, he often sleeps, and even when he is awake, he does not speak, but just watches the congressmen arguing."

Danton didn't know that at that time Frost was still planning to be a fencer.

Ballas: "That's right, then I'll go to General Frost immediately and explain that I didn't mean to sow discord."

Dandong waved his hand: "In your lover's letter, it can be seen that you intend to sow discord. I went against Robespierre because I don't think it's possible to send a person to the guillotine just because he wants to sow discord." .”

Barras immediately bowed to Danton: "Thank you for your righteous words."

"Don't rush to thank, to be honest, I am also very dissatisfied with your attempt to sow discord! I just complain about Robespierre, we often do this kind of thing, that person is a bit paranoid, he wears a suit The green coat has been worn for many years, how can a normal person do this.

"But the relationship between us has been maintained since the establishment of the Jacobin Club in 1785. We have been old friends for eight years.

"In the past eight years, we have all experienced quarrels that are much more serious than this. This kind of friendship is not something that you, an outsider, can destroy casually!"

Ballas nodded immediately: "I will never have such unreasonable thoughts again."

Dandong nodded: "Yes. Also, you really should go to Frost, not to deny that you have the idea of ​​sowing discord, but to admit that you have such an idea, and then honestly apologize for this idea."

Danton paused, looked up at the ceiling, and remained silent for a few seconds before saying, "This man Frost really doesn't want Maximilian and I to fall out. If we do break up, he must be the saddest one." .

"Then he is a character who is sure to revenge, and he will shoot grapes at the guy who caused me to break up with Maximilian.

"You don't want to be shot by his confidant, that short Corsican Napoleon, do you?"

Ballas shuddered.

Since Napoleon fired grape bombs on the streets of Paris, people in Paris began to spread that he liked to tie people in front of the cannon and blow them away with grape bombs.

After nearly a year of dissemination, this rumor has become complete in detail, and it is completely true, just like the 99-year-old Mr. Voltaire who lives in seclusion.

Balas naturally knew about this rumor, and he shuddered just hearing it.

"I will go to General Frost to clarify immediately after I leave your place."

Danton: "Be sincere! Frost hates sophistry."

Ballas nodded his head.

At this time, Dandong suddenly sighed: "It's a pity, I don't understand military affairs, otherwise I would definitely choose to fight with Frost, so that I don't have to see the current situation in Paris. Do you know that the area where I live, every day There were at least five funerals."

Ballas: "Is Frost unhappy with the situation in Paris, too?"

"I can't see whether he is dissatisfied, but I know that he used to lead soldiers outside to fight because he found politics annoying.

"You can see that he went to Italy to fight for a year. At that time, we were willing to leave Paris. Leaving Paris was tantamount to ruining our political life. He left as soon as he said."

Danton sighed: "As a result, he and his officers are the ones who have been promoted the fastest in Paris and expanded their power the most.

"Especially that Napoleon, because he was a classmate with Frost in Briena, and he was the most favored. Recently, that guy introduced his sister to Frost. Guess what, Frost is not married yet, Just met the little girl.

"In Paris now, Napoleon is a sweet potato. If you can't curry favor with Frost, you should all curry favor with him."

Danton evaluated his friend indifferently, without thinking about the consequences.
