Chapter 278: The Big Gamble with Madame Du Barry(2/2)

...

As soon as Lawrence left, the Marquis de Maupe and Lieutenant General Jacques Philippe rushed after him.

Lieutenant General Jacques Philippe was so anxious that a thin layer of cold sweat broke out on his forehead. He grabbed Lawrence by the shoulders and yelled in a low voice:

"Your Excellency Bonaparte, I thought you were a calm and rational person, but I didn't expect you to be so impulsive."

Justice Maupp on the side also rarely agreed with Lieutenant General Philip and said worriedly:

This chapter is not over, please click the next page to continue reading! "That's right, Your Excellency Bonaparte, although our time to deal with Madame Du Barry is very tight, we don't need to be as radical as you. There is no need for you to fight for one or two.

A necklace worth a million livres puts your life at risk."

Looking at the distressed two people, Lawrence just smiled easily, slowly put down Lieutenant General Philip's hand from his shoulder, and said comfortingly:

"Don't worry, gentlemen, this is just a sure bet."

"My brother will definitely be furious if he knows about this. If he also knows that you lost your position as First Attendant... I can't even imagine his furious expression."

One of the reasons why Duke Choiseul valued Lawrence was because he valued the relationship between Lawrence and the crown prince. If Lawrence really lost the bet and was forced to leave the crown prince, Jacques Philippe, as the second-largest figure in the faction, felt that he had no

I have to go face to face with my brother.

"As I said, I haven't lost the bet yet, General." Lawrence patted Lieutenant General Philip twice on the back thoughtfully:

"And if the Duke of Choiseul knew that I got rid of Madame Du Barry for him, he might happily drink three glasses of brandy."

Lieutenant General Philip couldn't help but rolled his eyes:

"Get rid of Madame Du Barry? Even if you really win the bet, you can only get rid of the necklace on Madame Du Barry's chest. Alas, I really don't know why you took that thing as a bet. Don't you still have science on your hands?

The Signia National Silver Company is not interested in this mere two million livres, is it?"
