After saying that, Colonel Giovanni made a gesture to his men, indicating that they should start to move forward.

"Wait a minute."

Facing more and more armed police officers approaching, Lawrence just smiled and said:

"Colonel, I think you haven't read this document yet, right? Ya'an, take it over and show it to the colonel."

As he spoke, Lawrence took out the thick piece of parchment from his arms and handed it to Ya'an. This was exactly the order document signed by the Foreign Secretary sent by the Duke of Choiseul a few days ago.

Colonel Giovanni's brows furrowed even more, but he still quickly took the parchment from Ya'an's hand and started reading.

"This is...!"

The colonel's expression was puzzled at first, then shocked, then dull, and finally panicked to the naked eye.

"What bullshit document? What does it say?" Count Falcone asked with disdain as he looked at the panicked Colonel Giovanni.

"My Lord Count..."

Colonel Giovanni anxiously rolled up the parchment and returned it to Yaan. At the same time, he immediately ordered his men to stop their actions and whispered to Count Falcone:

"This...is the Corsican Embassy."

"What did you say?" Count Falcone did not react for a moment.

"This entire mansion has been established as the Corsican Embassy in France with the approval of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and the order document was signed a few days ago."

Colonel Giovanni's eyes widened and he said in a daze:

"We have no authority to search diplomatic embassies at all, and..."

The colonel looked back at the door, which was almost in shape, and gritted his teeth and said:

"Governor Bonaparte is right. This is Corsica's land, and our forcible intrusion will be regarded as a violation of Corsica's sovereignty."

Count Falcone suddenly became furious, pointed at Colonel Giovanni's nose and cursed:

"What?! That's nonsense! The crown of Corsica will be on the king's head soon, why does it care about this bullshit embassy! Go in and search for Du Barry! Do you hear me?!

"I'm sorry, Lord Earl, I can't..."

He knew in his heart that rejecting Count Falcone's request would only offend Duke Richelieu and affect his future prospects. Moreover, an enlightened figure like Duke Richelieu might not blame himself.

But if he openly led the police force to invade an embassy, ​​and even almost had a firefight, the seriousness of the matter would be enough to make his head move.

Those small German countries with embassies or agencies in Paris will definitely seriously protest against such diplomatic insults that may happen to them, and this may even become the trigger of a diplomatic crisis.

And by that time, Colonel Giovanni, as the culprit, would not be able to escape death penalty no matter what.

Even the entire Paris police force will undergo a top-to-bottom purge.

When he thought of this, Colonel Giovanni shuddered all over. No matter how loud Count Falcone shouted, he hurriedly ordered all his men to withdraw to the gate.

"Ah, Colonel, it seems there is quite a misunderstanding between us."

Lawrence walked forward with a chuckle, passed the incompetent and furious Count Falcone, and said to Colonel Giovanni:

"It's my fault, because this document has not been fully disclosed to the public, and I have not put a sign at the door of the mansion."

After hearing these words, Colonel Giovanni, who was heartbroken, suddenly felt a glimmer of hope. He looked at Lawrence excitedly, knowing that the Corsican governor was taking the initiative to give him a chance of survival, so he quickly put aside Count Falcone.

said:

"No, no, no, I was reckless. Damn it, I..."

"Stop it, Colonel, since it's a misunderstanding, I think we should shake hands and make peace, right?"

Lawrence smiled and stretched out his hand and said:

"I am happy to issue a good-faith statement to express my understanding of the behavior of you and your subordinates. Of course, according to convention, you must also issue a public statement to explain the entire incident in a specific and comprehensive manner."

Colonel Giovanni held Lawrence's hand without any hesitation. This was his life-saving straw at the moment. If Lawrence wanted to hold him accountable for the invasion of the embassy, ​​his head would definitely not be saved.

As for the public statement Lawrence mentioned, Colonel Giovanni glanced at Count Falcone, who was still angry, and immediately understood what he meant.

This is asking him to drag Count Falcone and even Duke Richelieu into the water in this statement, and throw the responsibility for the attack on the embassy on them.

"Don't worry, I will send the statement to all major newspapers before evening." Colonel Giovanni said, holding Lawrence's hand tightly.

"Then I will also express my understanding to you before tonight." Lawrence nodded and said.

Colonel Giovanni was so moved that he held Lawrence's hand and stood for a while, then turned to his men and said:

"Everyone, listen up! Unload the bullets and put the gun on your back! Leave the Corsican Embassy immediately."

Lawrence then walked up to Count Falcone, who was staying where he was, and said with a smile:
