Napoleon II Reborn Chapter 58

Time went back to January 12th. Although the hunting was cancelled, the celebration banquet in the evening was still held as usual.

7 o'clock in the evening, Tuileries Palace, princes of the empire, dukes, marshals of the army, generals. The prime minister of the government, ministers of various ministries, and celebrities of the upper class, a total of hundreds of people crowded here.

His Majesty the Emperor led his army to a great victory on the front line, which immediately calmed down this crisis-ridden country, showing a scene of prosperity through singing and dancing. The people attending the banquet chatted in small circles with glasses of wine. But most of the talk is about how much benefit France can get after the victory of this war, and how much benefit they can get from it. And about the rewards for the meritorious personnel this time, how much their titles will be raised, and they will get the fiefs there. And rumors that Napoleon will announce the heir to the throne at this banquet and so on.

Xiao Jie stood next to Joseph and talked to his mother Julie about some things on the battlefield. Julie has always opposed Xiao Jie's going to the battlefield at such a young age. Although she knew that her son was staying with His Majesty the Emperor and would not be in danger, as a mother, she was still very worried. Only when Xiao Jie came back safely did he feel relieved.

Joseph, on the other hand, dealt with those who had apparently received the news to congratulate him. Looking at his brothers and sisters who glared at him, Joseph couldn't say how happy he was. Although he himself wanted to be the emperor, but He has too many opponents. Instead of doing this, it is better to leave the opportunity to his son. His son is unmatched in the third generation of the family! After getting Napoleon, who is likely to announce the heir today, he can be said to have a certain chance of winning. There is almost no one in the family who is more qualified to be the successor than Xiao Jie, and he is so loved by Napoleon. In the eyes of everyone, it is a certainty that he will inherit the empire.

Xiao Jie didn't pay much attention to this, although the status of the crown prince was very enviable, but before he got the throne, everything was false, and he might be replaced one day. The biggest variable is whether the "King of Rome" will be born, and if so, what is the use of being the Crown Prince?

At half-past seven Napoleon appeared, accompanied by Josephine, and all saluted the Emperor and Empress. Before the banquet began, Napoleon gave a short speech, which was nothing more than that the French people finally defeated the vicious invaders under his leadership, and how many interests they won for the empire. .

After the speech, Napoleon rewarded those who made contributions to this war, and many marshals and generals received a lot of rewards. Among them, Prince Murat's reward is the most coveted. Napoleon bestowed the Duchy of Cleaver and Berg to Murat and Caroline. When Napoleon announced the reward to Murat, Xiao Jie obviously felt that Joseph and Louis were breathing harder, and their eyes began to turn red. Although the two of them are now the king of Naples and the king of the Netherlands, they are still not convinced that Murat, an 'outsider', can receive such a reward.

Next, is the highlight of tonight.

Napoleon said: "Gentlemen and ladies. I think you also know that our country has always been under the threat of the enemy. Although we have defeated the enemy's attack time and time again, those despicable enemies will always take All kinds of means are coming to attack us and destroy our country. Given this severe situation, I have been looking for someone who can continue to lead you to fight against the enemy in case I am not sidelined. ,Through this war, I finally found him. He is my nephew——Andrésie Joseph Bonaparte. I now announce that he is the Crown Prince of France. Cheers! I Your subjects, cheer for your Crown Prince!"

After Napoleon announced the decision, most people cheered, except those contenders for the throne.

Signaling everyone to be quiet, Napoleon then told all the rewards that Xiao Jie received in the war: "Promote Captain Andresi to colonel. Allow him to form his own personal guard army, that is, the number 88 of the Ministry of War." Legion, all expenses of the legion will be settled by the Crown Prince himself."

After Napoleon announced this decision, everyone was boiling again. What a great honor it is to be promoted three levels in a row and form your own legion. Countless fiery gazes shot at Xiao Jie, at this moment, he felt as if he was about to be burned. Except for the people in the army, everyone believed that Napoleon favored Xiao Jie and gave him such great benefits. Only those marshals and generals know that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has real talents and real learning.

After these, the banquet officially began. After Napoleon and Josephine danced the first dance, other people embraced their partners and entered the dance floor one after another.

Many Huaichun girls plucked up the courage to invite Xiao Jie to dance with them, but Xiao Jie had no interest in these girls, so he refused all of them. He drank a glass of wine by himself, found a fairly quiet corner, and quietly Sitting there, thinking about something. "I haven't seen Angel for three months. Is she okay? Is she thinking about her like me now?" Xiao Jie thought silently.

Not long after, Napoleon walked up to Xiao Jie and said, "My dear Andresi~www.mtlnovel.com~Why are you sitting here alone? You must know that you are the Crown Prince of the French Empire now, yes You should have a good relationship with your subjects."

"Do you have to dance with your subjects if you want to have a good relationship with them?" Xiao Jie asked.

Napoleon shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course, it's very impolite to refuse a lady's invitation. Maybe you can have a more in-depth exchange with them." eyes.

Xiao Jie felt chills for a while, and he knew very well that Napoleon was more lustful, maybe there is no man who is not lustful, let alone he is the emperor. Monarchs in Europe do not have three thousand harems like in the East, but they also have countless lovers either openly or secretly. Xiao Jie was also a normal man, but he was just not used to having **** with women without feelings, which was incompatible with the popular one-night stands in European upper class society at that time. Often today the duke cuckolded that marquis, and tomorrow a certain earl cuckolded the duke, which was quite normal at the time. Even the number of lovers is used as an important means of measuring a person's social status.

"Okay, Andresi, you are the protagonist tonight, don't worry about your little lover Angel, and enjoy the beautiful girls tonight. You are young and strong, no I'm old like uncle.” Napoleon left after saying these words to Xiao Jie, holding his wine glass, and mixed with those ladies again.
