After sending Robespierre away, the year had moved to December of 1793.
Anning discovered a downside to becoming the First Governor.
He had to make appearances at the new Cabinet and deal with daily administrative tasks.
Previously, Anning only needed to concern himself with military matters, which were efficiently organized by Bertier. As General, he could simply oversee.
Anning could then focus more energy on adopting new equipment, establishing new factories, and realizing his plan to become the French version of Greenspan.
But now, he didn't have a versatile assistant like Bertier to handle daily administration, so he had to do it himself.
The new Cabinet's office was set up in the former Supreme Court.
During the Bourbon Dynasty, although the Supreme Court was called a court, it actually acted as a check on royal power; it was in effect the central institution of noble power.
