In the following months, the days were still "calm". Of course, this "calm" was compared with the days when the Bastille was besieged.

The order of the higher communities in Paris has been basically guaranteed. The newly compiled National Self-Defense Forces patrol day and night, which made the stingers dare not make a fuss in these places at all. Now the poor have basically been removed from the National Self-Defense Forces because they have to spend a lot of their time making a living rather than receiving military training.

But if you leave these neighborhoods and walk into the areas where poor people live, you will immediately find that the restoration of order is just an illusion, and the order here is even more chaotic than before the revolution.

According to Aunt Sophie, there are now thieves and robbers everywhere on the streets.

"I dare not walk on the street with bread." When Joseph suggested that Aunt Sophie could get some bread from him and go back to his children, Aunt Sophie said.

"Mr. Bonaparte, you don't know how messy the outside of the block is now! Oh my, a woman like me, walking on the street with bread, my god, is more dangerous than walking in a forest with tigers. Don't talk about me, even a big guy like you, if there is only one person, I'm sure that if you are holding bread in those places, you will be robbed if you can't take a hundred steps. If it were Mr. Lucien, you will be gunned if you can't take ten steps. If it were Little Louis, then he would disappear without a trace."

"If this is the case, how can you bring the bread you bought home?" Joseph asked.

"Of course, several neighbors went to buy it together." Aunt Sophie said, "If you guys are all causing trouble, such as the third-level meeting, the king, the meeting, the revolutionary nonsense. I originally thought that life was already hard enough, and it would not be even more sad if it was a mess. Who knew... Sir, they all said that after the third-level meeting, everyone would be able to eat enough. But some bad people didn't let us hold the third-level meeting. We all went to fight those bad people. But the bad people also fought, the third-level meeting was also held, but the bread became more expensive. When the third-level meeting was not held, we couldn't afford bread; when the third-level meeting was held, we still couldn't afford bread: Then the third-level meeting was in vain?"

When Joseph heard this, he sighed and said, "Auntie Sophie, the third-level meeting itself cannot be made into bread."

At the same time, he added in his heart: "And, those who represent the thoughts have never been able to make enough bread for the lowest class of society."

This idea did not wrongly accuse those representatives. In fact, most of those representatives are rich people, so they are not worried about bread. Some people even compared the wages of French and British people and found that the wages of French people are too high, which has dragged down the French economy, so legal means should be used to limit the proposal of high wages.

"But, isn't it said that everyone will have good days as soon as the third-level meeting is held? They can't just lie like this." Aunt Sophie muttered.

"It's not just you," Joseph sighed, "Even my days are harder than before. Everything except salary has increased. My days have become sad."

This is half true, but if Joseph had not had some other income and had his school salary alone, his life would have become a bit difficult now. Even a "senior technician" like Joseph (which is what Joseph laughed at himself) might have fallen into difficulties, and ordinary people would naturally be unable to live their lives.

But in fact, if there were no third-level meetings and no revolutions, even if the lives of ordinary people were a little sad, something might not necessarily happen. To be honest, in Europe, the French, even the lives of the French people at the bottom of France, were not bad. At least, compared with British workers with an average service life of no more than three years, or Russian serfs who did not even have personal freedom, it was really not clear how high it was. As for Germany? Heine even said this: "One percent of the suffering we German people suffered is enough to make the French initiate a thousand uprisings."

But the problem is that the convening of the third-level meeting gave the lower class a huge hope. All Frenchmen, even lower-level Frenchmen like Aunt Sophie, knew it and were full of hope for it. And various propaganda kept blowing this hope bigger and bigger and more beautiful. It seemed that as long as the third-level meeting was held and the king supported the constitution, all problems could be solved. Almost "after the third-level meeting, constitutionalization became everything, with foie gras sauce on the table, and the girl hugged her at night."

However, in the face of reality, this hope that the boss was blown away like a soap bubble. The third-level meeting was held, the Constitutional Assembly was established, and the Bastille was defeated. However, not to mention foie gras, even black bread was gone. Such a gap could bring far more pain than the pain of not having enough food, and the hatred brought by such gap naturally far exceeded the hatred caused by not having enough food. Therefore, the Great Revolution did not break out in the countries where the most severe oppression was, but instead broke out in France first.

"So, the king agreed to convene a third-level meeting, which was his biggest mistake. Now the anger of the citizens of Paris is still gathering. With a little guidance, the confrontation between the whole Paris and the king is inevitable. Haha, if you lose the support of Paris and even gain the hatred of Paris, how can the king wear his crown firmly?" At the Palace of Royal, Marquis Mirapo was talking to the owner of the Duke of Orleans.

Marquis Mirapo is a wonderful man. His first half of his life was either in scandal or in prison.

Mirabo showed a slut when he was young. His father sent him to the army for training, but he bet on money and even tried to become a deserter. As a result, he was eventually imprisoned in the prison of Ray Island. After being released from prison, he participated in the suppression of the Corsica rebellion. During this period, he performed well and was promoted to captain and returned to Paris.

Under the arrangement of his father, he married Emily, the daughter of Marquis Mariane. Mirapo's father's purpose was to obtain the other's huge wealth through this marriage. However, the couple was not in tune with each other, not only looked down on each other, but also liked a luxurious life, squandered excessively every day, and owed a large amount of foreign debt. In order to prevent his son from insulting his family's reputation, the Marquis of Mirapo locked him up and forbidden him to handle his property by himself. As a result, Mirapo remained unrest and was locked in the Ivebor Fortress Prison in 1774. (It is the prison where Edmund Dontes stayed in "The Earl of Monte Cristo".)

In 1775, Mirabo was released from prison. However, as soon as he was released from prison, he seduced the young wife of Marquis Molière, a married woman, and then took her to the Netherlands.

This behavior of course led to the old Marquis of Mirapo who cut off all his economic resources. So Mirapo had to start relying on writing as a living. Mirapo came from his own class and knew all kinds of bullshit things in the upper class of France, so he wrote something specifically to expose the corruption of the upper class of France, and soon became a famous critic of the old French system.

However, the money earned by writing is not enough for Mirapo. This man has always spent money, and his best job is to spend money. So during this period, he was once again imprisoned due to debt disputes. Of course, Mirapo claimed that this was the persecution of him by the reactionary French authorities.

But soon, Mirapo was released from prison, miraculously paid off his debts, lived a more debauched life, and never got into trouble because of debt disputes. In response, Mirapo declared that this was because his various successful investments brought him rich returns. He also said that achieving financial freedom was just a small goal. But many people said that he had just found a big financial backer and got a lot of money from him. This big financial backer was the Duke of Orleans who was determined to ruin the king's reputation.

Because of the continued criticism of the old French system, Mirapo gained a good reputation in the third level of dissatisfaction with reality. When the third level conference was held, Mirapo became the representative of the third level and became one of the leaders of the Constitutional Assembly.

"However, like today's situation, the Parisians have experienced many times. And this year's wheat has grown very well. It is generally believed that if there are no sudden natural disasters, by this autumn, wheat will have a rare bumper harvest in the past decade. By that time, the price of food will definitely drop. This is not transferred by human will. Once the price of food falls, the dissatisfaction of the people of Paris will also drop, and the flame of revolution will be extinguished. If we cannot seize the time, the old system will continue." The Duke of Orleans frowned.

Mirapo laughed loudly, and the fat under his broad chin also trembled.

"Your Highness, don't worry, how can the current situation support the autumn harvest? If the people of Paris had endured it before, they would not be able to bear it, but now it is different. The third-level meeting and the revolution gave them hope. If the reality broke this hope, the anger generated in this is not easy to suppress. Besides, who can suppress such anger now? Besides, the countryside in other provinces is now in turmoil. The farmers are eager to get rid of the land rent and the eleventh tax. They can't wait. There are rebellions everywhere. In order to appease them, the Constituent Assembly is preparing to pass a new decree. This new decree will definitely be blocked by the king. Then we will raise the prices and then lead the people's anger to the king, and the situation will become beneficial to us."
