Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty

C3232 Versailles's Hot Pot

As the President of a new Republic, instead of immediately heading to Paris to announce your inauguration, you chose to gather troops there in advance? You're saying that?

What are you doing? Why did they not go to Paris to work and instead put their offices in Versailles City under the noses of the German headquarters?

Wasn't it because they wanted to fight? It was because they wanted to brutally suppress the civil war!

Gan Bida, who was a representative filled with morals and righteousness, grieved in his heart, while Fa Fuer, who was a leader of a moderate faction, also sighed in regret. However, their powers were too weak, the entire French political scene was filled with the powers of the capitalists and the royalist party.

They were extremely satisfied with the President's decision, and waves of cheers came one after another!

This time, the people of Paris Commune were shocked awake. They finally understood that Thiers was just fawning on them previously, there were not many people who truly sympathized with them, they could only rely on themselves now.

Paris was surrounded by a tense atmosphere. The commune gave up on their fantasies and started preparing for battle. National Guard was gathered together and trained every day.

The secret strongholds of the communities in Montmartre plateau, the taverns and dilapidated inns, the remaining leaders of the communities took turns to hold meetings. However, without Blanqui holding the line, all sorts of ideas started to conflict among the various forces.

The leaders of the commune all had their own opinions. If they had any pessimistic requests, they would immediately negotiate with Thiers.

Some demanded resistance. Some even went out of the trenches and took the initiative to attack the enemy, and these people were attacked as radical adventurers.

For example, Raoult Rigo, this madman, had even said that he wanted to negotiate alone with Germany, and would even want to bring all of the warriors of the commune to break out of the siege.

He wanted to bring troops that could fight to the provinces of Arthas and Rolin. He wanted to separate from the France and build his own country. Even if he could not establish his own country, he had to establish his own base.

With this kind of whimsical nonsense, no one even bothered to divide their factions. They directly rushed forward to beat Li Gao up.

In the midst of this chaos, Paris welcomed spring. More and more French troops gathered outside the city, and even Germany gave part of the city's defenses to these people.

It was only at the beginning of March that the new President of France, Thiers, finally took the train to the Versailles.

After a short speech in front of the entrance, the reporter from the London Thames interviewed Thiers in public. "Mr. President, may I ask why you want to work in the Versailles?

Thiers smiled and said, "Sir, your question is indeed very sharp … I can answer you frankly because I am very disappointed with the security of Paris and I don't feel safe anywhere! "

"Are you hinting at something? Is it that Archbishop Davabool has worried you? " The reporter asked while shorthand.

At this time, Thiers was already preparing to leave, but after hearing the question, he stopped and turned his head back. No, no, no... I don't mean anything by it. I'm just stating a fact! "

This was enough, the words were too clear, this was simply Thiers's declaration of war. The ecstatic reporters started to write their reports, they wanted to quickly send the news back home.

A black carriage was parked far away from the train station. Director Wang, who was watching everything from behind the curtain, said, "Tell the kitchen to prepare some delicacies. I dare say that this President of France will be here tonight."

The Versailles was currently the temporary residence of Bismark and Xiao Letian. Since Thiers wanted to exercise the authority of the President here, then these two great Buddhas cannot be avoided no matter what.

The spring wind in March was already warm, and Versailles, as expected, welcomed the presidential carriage. Thiers walked down from the carriage and looked at the majestic imperial palace in front of him.

"How difficult is it for the motherland! The magnificent palace became the enemy's hotel... It's time to end this all! "

This was an informal visit. The conversation between the three parties would not have any records, nor would any reporters appear. There would even be no ball of wine or beauties from the noble families of France.

There were only three people plus three translators. In an extravagantly decorated small side hall, Xiao Letian invited the two of them to eat a delicious old Beijing copper hotpot.

had 'snatched' the copper and purple crystal blue hotpot inlaid with enamel from the treasure that Zai Chun had been travelling with.

One dragon and one phoenix were circling above the pot, the dragons had five claws, according to the laws of the Great Qing, Xiao Letian had to behead, exterminate the entire family, and even the entire 9 Tribes!

But it was very helpless! The enforcement ability of the Great Qing was too weak. Xiao Letian lived in the Ryukyu, and if there was nothing else, he would go to the continent often. These officials of the Great Qing did not dare to apprehend him.

The Silver Frost Charcoal specially provided by the Ministry of Internal Affairs came from the imperial kilns in the western part of the capital. This kind of hard wood charcoal could only be used to ignite a fire.

The flames spewed out an inch or so from the blue hot pot. The small house was so warm that it was almost impossible to wear a coat!

The set of tableware surrounding the hotpot was so exquisite that no one would be willing to use it, even if Bismark had mixed Xiao Letian's Chinese food countless times, but this was still the first time eating such an exquisite hotpot.

"This is called a hotpot, I can boil some meat later on …" This wasn't really a Chinese cuisine, but this kind of cuisine had one advantage: the atmosphere was good … Would you like some sesame paste... "And leek …"

"The atmosphere, the atmosphere is the most important! With our identity, what can't we eat? Flying in the sky, swimming in the sea... That's soy bean curd. Please be careful of the salt … "The mutton and fat cows are being sliced, and the knife master is the best …"

"Eating hotpot, reunion ah! That's right, everyone was still eating the meat in the same pot, so there was no need to be afraid of being poisoned … The key was still warm! "Now that I've started to sweat, I naturally get closer to you …"

"When people get to know each other, they have to get warmer and warmer. It can't get colder and colder as they get closer, can it? Come, come, come... I got the lamb... "This is the upper brain, the bigger triad, the cucumber …"

Good heavens, the aura Xiao Letian displayed today was completely different from his usual overbearing attitude. A wave of anger rose involuntarily, adding on to the countless of tools and seasonings in front of them, as well as the boiling hot pot, both Thiers and Bismark were stunned.

"The Führer... What are you preparing? And this wine … "Why is it so stimulating …"

"That you don't know, this is called Erguotou …" Mr. President, if you have a taste... Have a bite! "

"AHH!" Fire... His throat was on fire... "This poison …"

Thiers was tricked into drinking the Erguotou, immediately tears flowed out, "Come! Help... The Chinese leader tried to poison me to death... "
