In the dim light of dawn, Napoleon and his party arrived secretly in Paris.
Before entering Paris, he had already contacted local military officers in advance, and sent his brother Lucien Bonaparte to reach out to supporters.
He needed to gain the support of major bankers in Paris.
Standing behind Napoleon at the moment was a burly man with distinct Italian features. His expression was serious as he gazed disapprovingly at a black man in the distance, saying with a hint of contempt, "Black slaves?"
"Can they now brazenly walk the streets of Paris?"
The young man next to Napoleon whispered, "It's the government that abolished slavery. They are considered free men now."
Balton scoffed at this remark.
