King's Landing in France

Chapter 330

That night, An Ning came to Robespierre's house alone as promised.

Because Robespierre was still unmarried, it was inconvenient for An Ning to bring Christina over, so she came alone.

Christina insisted that Murat be An Ning's bodyguard, but An Ning couldn't resist her, so she took it with her.

In fact, it's not sure who will protect who if something happens. Maybe An Ning will do her best to keep her future generals from being here.

Originally, according to An Ning's idea, since Murat was also there, Robespierre could simply call Saint-Just, set up a four-player game, and go directly to the bridge session after dinner, right?

As a result, Robespierre rejected the proposal very seriously.

Robespierre pointed at An Ning and himself and said, "Just the two of us, I don't want to keep the landlady too busy."

An Ning always felt that Robespierre had something to say to herself.

So he turned to Murat and said, "It seems that Maximilian and I have some private matters to discuss."

Murat nodded immediately: "I'll go outside and take care of the horse."

"please."

After An Ning finished speaking, Robespierre also added: "Thank you for your hard work, uh..."

An Ning: "Mura, my guard officer."

When the word "Guard" was mentioned, Murat raised his head, seeming particularly proud.

Robespierre sighed sincerely: "The army is a good thing. Orders and regulations are prohibited, and everyone is united. If our parliament can be like the army, that would be great."

An Ning smiled and said: "That's not acceptable. The army is absolutely one-sided. If the commander is self-willed and unable to judge the situation, the army will lose the battle. Because the parliament has gathered various opinions, it is possible that everything will be lost because of one person's mistakes. Sex is greatly reduced."

Robespierre: "But parliament lost when it came to doing the right thing."

An Ning shrugged: "Everyone has their own benefits."

At this time, the landlady appeared at the stairs and glanced this way. Robespierre immediately remembered something, and said to An Ning: "I was so busy talking, I forgot that you are here for dinner. Mrs. Claire, you It's time to serve."

The landlady nodded immediately, and disappeared on the stairs.

Murat: "Then I'm leaving, I wish you... well, have a good meal."

An Ning wanted to laugh, but Robespierre looked serious, so he couldn't laugh either.

Murat turned and left, and when she went downstairs, she could hear the conversation between him and Mrs. Claire:

"I also prepared a stew for you."

"Really? Thank you, I will eat in the stables. As a cavalryman, I often eat in the stables."

Robespierre also heard what Murat said, and he commented: "You really found a lot of outstanding officers. I thought all the officers followed the nobles."

An Ning: "I'm just digging out talents who were originally covered up by the backward military officer system. Think about it before, only four generations of nobles could become military officers. How many people were unable to display their talents because they did not meet this condition."

Robespierre: "This is the evil of the old regime! That's why we have to bury it!"

As he spoke, he pushed open the door of his study, went straight to the desk and sat down, pushing the documents on the desk aside.

An Ning sat down across the desk, and joked, "Are we going to have dinner at the desk like this?"

"Sorry, I don't have a table here that can be used to entertain guests, so I can only use a desk to make ends meet."

An Ning nodded, and then looked around. Just like the last time I came here, Robespierre's study has a minimalist style.

It can be seen that this incorruptible person really did not accept even the slightest bribe.

At this moment, Robespierre suddenly said, "Compared to Danton's New Manor, isn't it much more shabby?"

An Ning: "I think a study like yours is pleasing to the eye."

Robespierre pouted, then took out a document from the document that had just been pushed aside, and handed it to An Ning: "Andy, this is the draft I'm drafting."

An Ning thought that indeed he came, some kind of dinner with old friends, in fact Robespierre called him here entirely for this bill.

"Let me take a look." An Ning took the document, unfolded it, and read it quickly.

The content on the file is as follows:

In view of the present situation, a large number of traitors and those who intend to destroy the revolution are already lurking in Paris, and they must be removed by thunderous means.

These people have considerable power of public opinion, and it is very likely that they will not be brought to justice through normal judicial procedures.

At this time of life and death, extraordinary measures should be taken, and a special institution should be established, empowered with the necessary functions for the maintenance of the republic.

The agency should be able to execute potential enemies without judicial process.

……

The more An Ning read, the more she frowned.

An Ning thought of many similar institutions in the history of the institution to be established by the Robespierre bill, such as what is covered and what is guaranteed...

After reading it, An Ning shouted, "This is Fa XS!"

What he meant was that this was a lawful act.

Then he realized that this kind of thinking did not exist in this era, and the word still refers to the bunch of sticks with an ax stuck in the middle in the ancient Roman era.

When Robespierre heard it, he immediately showed an expression of admiration: "Oh, Fa XS, this metaphor is really vivid, yes, this is the kind of tool with a stick and an ax that the executioner of the consul uses!
"Andy, you really know Rome very well!
"I like this metaphor so much, please allow me to add it to the bill."

Speaking of which, Robespierre was about to take back the document in An Ning's hand, but An Ning directly grabbed the document and refused to let him take it back.

The smile on Robespierre's face faded.

An Ning said firmly: "I oppose this proposal. We have just overthrown the autocratic emperor, and the Republic has only been established for more than a year. I cannot let it go backwards!"

Robespierre: "The last country that used XS was also a republic, the Roman Republic. This is a necessary means to maintain the republic. France can only be protected if all the hidden enemies are thoroughly uncovered!"

An Ning shouted, "Enough! Maximilian, with our army's military victory, France is no longer as dangerous as before!"

Robespierre retorted: "No! Indeed, the external threat has been resolved by your military victory, and the internal rebels have also been suppressed by your outstanding generals. Lazarcano is still in a steady stream. Forming the army of the Republic, no one can defeat France militarily.

"However, the fortresses were breached from within! I saw countless moths eating away at France!
"The troubles of France are in this parliament, in this Paris!"

An Ning: "Okay, you said you're in Paris, then order one!"

Robespierre said loudly: "Like Ballas and Talleyrand!"
