King's Landing in France

Chapter 335 List of the First Ruling Cabinet

In the end, the National Assembly passed a resolution to exile Robespierre with 20 abstentions and 66 against.

It seems that there are still many people who are dissatisfied with the exile of Robespierre and want to kill them all.

But because of the "prestige" of the first ruling, most still voted for it.

Talleyrand did not forget to sing praises: "Let us sing the benevolence of the first ruler together!"

The next vote for Saint-Just was not so divided, and everyone almost unanimously passed the resolution to send Saint-Just to the guillotine.

After doing all this, An Ning decided to propose Danton as the next speaker to control the National Assembly according to the order of his own ideas, but at this time Fouche stood up and spoke again.

"For a long time, we have given the National Assembly both executive power and legislative power, and everyone is used to coming to the National Assembly to vote on everything.

"This is actually wrong. According to the principle of separation of powers, we should completely separate the executive from the National Assembly."

When An Ning heard it, Fouché was right. Historically, the National Salvation Committee was the administrative body when the Jacobins were in power, but now it has been changed in this way, and the National Salvation Committee has become an organization similar to the NKVD. The administrative body It was vacated, and most of the administrative matters were handled by special commissioners sent by the parliament.

This is actually wrong.

So An Ning acquiesced to Fouché's statement and watched him continue to speak.

Fouché: "The Paris Commune is responsible for the internal affairs of Paris, but everything outside Paris is in chaos. I propose that the first minister nominate the cabinet team directly under his leadership!"

Well, Fouche, in this way, the administrative power of France will be completely controlled by An Ning if he continues to advance, and his first ruling will become worthy of the name.

Moreover, in the current situation where the entire national army obeys An Ning's orders, the power of the first ruler is almost unlimited.

An Ning thought about it quickly, and felt that this was good. Next, he would quickly promote the industrialization of France, and it would be convenient for him to grasp the administrative power.

So An Ning nodded and said: "I will propose the appointment of my cabinet candidates tomorrow and submit them to the National Assembly for review.

"Today, let's decide on the candidate for the new speaker of the National Assembly. I propose that Jacques Danton be the new speaker!"

Talleyrand: "Yes!"

An Ning said seriously: "The voting has not started yet, please follow the voting process."

Talleyrand bowed slightly: "Sorry, I was in a hurry."

I believe you ghost, you must have premeditated.

But thanks to Talleyrand's move, Dandong's speaker should not be able to escape.

In the end, as An Ning expected, Dandong was elected the new speaker with almost unanimous votes.

**
At noon, An Ning returned to the Royal Palace with a group of officers.

Christina had already received news of their return and greeted them at the door.

"How's it going?" she asked.

An Ning shrugged: "You may not believe it, I am now the first ruler of France."

Napoleon interrupted: "He's really Caesar now."

Christina smiled in surprise: "Really? Then I am Mrs. Caesar now?"

An Ning: "Okay, this is not important, Christina, prepare a light meal, we will eat while we have a meeting. Next we will discuss the list of cabinet members."

Christina was a little surprised: "Cabinet members? A group of soldiers came to discuss this?"

An Ning also thinks it's outrageous, but his current team is all soldiers except for Lazar Kano. Before that, he didn't plan to expand his influence in the administrative area, and he didn't have any related business at all.

An Ning now wants to ask his group of loyal military officers if there are any acquaintances who can serve as members of the political cabinet.

A group of people drove into the peaceful study room in Royal Palace, and then everyone dispersed and sat down.

Napoleon spoke first: "I think Mr. Equality can be called back. He has many friends in Paris, so it should be no problem to serve as the Keeper of the Seal."

An Ning sighed: "We are a republic, and we don't have a Keeper of the Seal. But it would be good to let my father-in-law be the Minister of the Interior. He has a lot of contacts in Paris, so he should have an advantage in this regard."

Anning paused for a moment, then looked at Lazar Kano: "It shouldn't be a problem for the Minister of War to continue to be Kano."

Lazarcano nodded, accepting the appointment.

An Ning continued according to the knowledge points she brought from her previous life: "The Minister of Foreign Affairs can be Talleyrand, and the Minister of Police can be given to Fouche."

La Salle frowned immediately: "Isn't Fouché a businessman, can he do this well?"

An Ning: "I have seen Fouche's work records in Lyon when he was a special commissioner. At least in Lyon, he successfully maintained local law and order and greatly reduced violent crimes. I think he should have some successful experience that he can bring to Paris. .”

Then An Ning mentioned a few more names in succession, all following the list of ministers after Napoleon proclaimed himself emperor.

Fortunately, his reputation is high enough now, so everyone is not wondering why he would suddenly mention the name of someone he has no contact with usually.

When everything was almost arranged, Moro suddenly said: "Your Excellency, you know me. I was a lawyer before joining the army. If you need a trustworthy person in law, I can join the Constitutional Committee to supervise They wrote a new constitution..."

An Ning: "But as far as I know, you don't even have a law school diploma?"

Mo Luo was embarrassed for a moment: "Uh, but I studied as a lawyer after all, and my father is a very famous lawyer..."

An Ning: "I fully understand the idea that you are willing to share my worries. But I need you more on the battlefield. You know that we are short of senior officers. We will soon enter the Rhine River, and the reorganized The Prussian-Austrian Allied Forces are at war."

While An Ning had to stay in France due to logistical problems, Prussia and Austria were also working hard to replenish their armies, and now Prussia and Austria have each raised hundreds of thousands of troops.

An Ning: "Although we have achieved brilliant victories, although we have a French army with high morale, if we do not take the enemy seriously, failure will definitely come to us.

"A soldier of pride must be defeated."

What An Ning said made everyone look at each other in blank dismay.

Indeed, after consecutive victories, everyone gradually did not think that the French army had the possibility of failure. It seemed that as long as they stomped their feet, the Prussian and Austrian allied forces would crash to the ground, and the kings of Prussia and Austria would bow their heads to France.

An Ning: "In short, the list of the cabinet has been decided without any opinions. After it is submitted to the parliament tomorrow, we only need to consider military issues."

An Ning didn't think his cabinet proposal would be rejected at all.

When he said this, he was slightly relieved.

At least Robespierre is not dead, and history has been changed by me after all.
