The good news almost made Napoleon go insane. The Versailles held up his wine cup and declared to his ministers that France would definitely win!

"God bless our France! The enemy Prussia is so weak, we must not let them go! Hahaha … My external phase, change your negotiating strategy! Now, not only do I want my Bavaria, I also want his! "

Duke Grimaud's expression immediately became bitter, and he spoke to French Emperor while holding his wine cup, "My dear your Majesty … Your proposal has already been sent to Bismark and William I. Do you need to change the terms of the negotiations temporarily in just a few days? This kind of thing is taboo in foreign affairs, I'm afraid it will cause Bismark and the others to strongly protest! "

"Protest!" Would I be afraid of their protest? That means they are poor bastards of a country. They haven't even paid for the minimum amount of funds needed for the war, yet they want to fight us to the death? It's all blackmail! Bismark is blackmailing our France! "

"This is already a big concession from me. I only want Bavaria and Hesse, Darmstadt can give up, is this not my kindness? Alright, my external phase, continue with your work … "

Napoleon had obviously drunk a bit too much. Empress Ou Renni looked at him with a worried expression, and revealed a trace of helplessness towards the ministers present.

The Queen was not the only one who was worried, even Montaubon was unable to drink anymore. It was not that the Duke of oculi bridge did not like this good news, but she felt that this good news was too good, too good that it was a little unexpected.

In Britain, he had witnessed the cunning of the Englishman. He felt that the information that was revealed was abnormal, given that he had obtained such top-secret information so easily.

He only secretly communicated with Empress Ou Renni through his eyes. After the end of the banquet, Napoleon III went back to rest with the help of the Attendant, while Empress Ou Yanni and the latter secretly met up in the backyard.

"My dear Empress, I can't prove anything, but I have a feeling that there must be a problem!"

"How could such an important piece of information be leaked out so easily? The people of the City of London are not fools. Just how deep are their friendship with the Netherlands to be able to release such secretive news? "

"There's probably a ghost here!"

Empress Ou Renni also agreed with Montaubon's words. She said regretfully, "Yes, I'm worried about that too, but you also saw how His Majesty is feeling! At this point in time, the France could not afford to take on another battle! Your Majesty doesn't want to fight this damn war at all! "

"Is it because of the Republicans?" Montopon asked.

The empress nodded. "Prussia is an outsider after all!" The real trouble in the France is inside, haven't you heard? Gan Bida has already succeeded in his candidacy for Marseille! "

The moment he mentioned the name Gan Bida, Montaubon's face immediately turned bitter, this name was what the royals hated the most!

Because Gan Bida was a complete republican, he was clearly opposed to the France's system of ruling over the country. He had always thought that Napoleon's position as the ruler of history was illegal.

Especially after the incident with Borden, he had once defended the editor of the Awakening Newspaper in court. The ordinary defense of the court had become Gan Bida, and it was this famous defense that made him very famous.

Borrowing this prestige, Gan Bida began to participate in the political process, officially joining the local council elections. In May of 1869, she participated in the Poleville district election campaign, and successfully became a member of the council.

In June, he once again participated in the Marseille's municipal council elections, and succeeded. At this time, this young politician had already become one of the leaders of the internal opposition in France, and his prestige was extremely high.

French Emperor wanted to take his life more than once, but when faced with the huge number of supporters he had behind him, he cowered.

He knew that there were countless workers and farmers backing Gan Bida's success. He could destroy Gan Bida physically, but he could not destroy the huge supporting groups behind it.

Queen Ou Renni joked and said, "We can only pray that Gan Bida is healthy and safe. If something happens to him, I'm afraid the angry people will blame it all on us!"

He lit a cigarette for himself. "Is there no other way?" "If this goes on, the opposition will grow stronger and stronger. At that time, the forces of the imperial court will weaken and our lives will be in trouble."

"So His Majesty is preparing to change the constitution this year. I'm afraid the France will have to change the government! Change to constitutional monarchy … "

With a hiss, Montaubon drew in a breath of cold air. "Has it come to this?"

The Queen nodded, "If there are no major mistakes, a new constitution will be published in April and May. At that time, France will choose a constitutional monarchy as its national constitution!"

"Is it a monarchy like the British one? Could His Majesty really let go? Let go of the power in your hands? "

Queen Ou Renni coldly said, "No! Of course not, the new constitution must guarantee the emperor most of his power, and we cannot be completely disenfranchised like Britain! "At the very least, our emperor should retain the military power and the power to reorganize the cabinet. All of this must remain!"

This time, he finally understood that what Napoleon wanted was a copy. Although he wanted to learn the British Monarch's Constitution and change the order, in reality, he needed to preserve a lot of his own privileges.

"Since it's like this, of course I'll raise both hands in support of His Majesty's decision. However, we have to be prepared with both hands. I'm afraid those Republicans won't agree to our terms so easily!"

"So what France needs now is a relatively peaceful environment. This is not a good time to start a war!" Queen Ou Renni said.

"Alright, Your Majesty, I will have the intelligence agencies continue to investigate the movements of the City of London. We must find more circumstantial evidence for this information.

Queen Ou Renni nodded her head and said, "That's right, we should not have such a war with Prussia. Our target should be those annoying Chinese people."

"As long as we can pass the constitutional reform, even if there are objections, we do not have to worry too much about it. When the anti-Chinese alliance is established, our Expeditionary forces will immediately set off and the East will bring the news of victory to the Empire. The news of victory will be able to pacify the nation."

"Those Republicans, even if they shout their throats out, they probably won't be able to win against the people's encouragement. As long as they win! We only want to win! "
