Capítulo 134: It's Still the Same

November 7th, 1799. Two days before the planned coup of Napoleon and his associates.

It was seven o'clock in the evening at Chateau de Chantilly where Napoleon was seated at the head of the dining table. Surrounding the table were Generals that served in Italy: Bernadotte, Jourdan, and Moreau.

The Generals that served him in Italy in Egypt such as Berthier, Lannes, Murat, La Harpe, Victor, and others already pledged their support through letters. Now, the gentlemen who are dining with him are the only ones he needs to solicit and gain their support.

"Our chefs are among the best in France. Are you gentlemen enjoying your meal?" Napoleon asked, casting a glance around the table at them.

General Bernadotte, known for his Jacobin past and military prowess, nodded appreciatively as he savored a bite of the meticulously prepared dish. "Exquisite, General Bonaparte. Your taste in cuisine is as impeccable as your leadership on the battlefield."
