Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 2298 scarlet woman (twelve)
Slughorn has an hourglass. When he thinks the topic is interesting, the sand in the hourglass will flow slower. When he thinks the topic is boring, the sand will flow much faster.

This is not in line with the objective laws of nature, but when we chat with someone, when we think the topic is interesting, time seems to pass quickly, and we hope that the sand will flow away slowly.

"So, starting next year, we don't need to prepare for the Christmas show anymore?"

Slughorn tapped the glass on the hourglass lightly, and it made a crisp sound, which cleared up her chaotic mind a lot.

"Sorry, what did you say?"

"I said, starting next year, we don't need to prepare for the Christmas show?" Slughorn repeated what he had just said.

"No, not just next year, but not in the future." Pomona replied, "Dumbledore thinks Christmas is more suitable for family reunions."

Slughorn thought for a moment, then took a sip of the mead, shaking his head.

"New principal, new rules, I understand, just like a Muggle school, right?"

"Professors can also have a vacation, and you have more time to socialize." Pomona "congratulated".

"Do you remember Tom Riddle?" Slughorn said suddenly. "When he was at school, I knew he would be great. If he went into politics, he would probably be the Minister of Magic."

Pomona glanced back at Slughorn's display rack, which had already displayed many of his "accomplishments", including a photo of Tom Riddle and Slughorn holding a trophy In order to reward Tom for protecting the school, a Muggle witch died, and the murderer was said to be a pet raised by Hagrid.

Albus said that the school is not safe, someone has released something dangerous from the Slytherin Chamber of Secrets, which will threaten the lives of teachers and students, so he wants the students to leave the school and go home for Christmas .

It was only a matter of time, since the fire in the auditorium that performed "Fountain of Luck" that the most popular pantomime has been canceled.Without wonderful programs, there is only a big feast to look forward to at Christmas. It is actually quite tiring to prepare new tricks every year.

But what about the children who have no home to return to?

"You're not going to be proud of him, Horace," said Pomona, and took a sip of the mead. "Someday you'll regret your 'discernment.'"

====================================================================== =============
Georgiana took a sip of water. In the story of the Fountain of Fortune, the outside of the magic garden was crowded with people, but the trees in the garden would not give way to them until the arrival of three witches and a hapless knight.

The hapless knight, who knows nothing but fighting and sword-wielding, and rides a skinny horse, decides that he will never get the Fountain of Fortune, and announces his intention to quit, and go back outside the walls, with others who cannot enter the garden He continued to make noise, but he was driven into the magic garden by the witches.

However, during the expedition, the witches all got what they wanted, and the fountain of good luck only allowed one person to wash, so they let the unlucky knight take a bath, and when the sun fell below the horizon, the knight walked out of the spring Come out, glowing with joy, wearing rusty armor, he threw himself at the feet of a witch, who he thought was the most beautiful and kind woman he had ever seen.

Sirius said viciously that the knight seemed to have jumped into a pool full of love potions, and accidentally drank a couple of sips, so he fell in love with the first woman he saw.

Not long ago they discovered that Snape had boiled a lot of compound antidotes in the cellar and installed several large vats. They also called the Slytherin lounge the "doom room", as if he and James had become like prophets. Yes, foreseeing Snape's plan to poison the whole school and then sell his compound antidote, in order to prevent the coming of "doomsday", the "robbers" must find a way to stop the evil Snape plotting in the cellar.

She shook her head with a smile, putting that memory behind her, and then something came to her mind.

Lucius Malfoy felt that anything depicting Muggle-wizard marriages should be banned from the bookshelves at Hogwarts. He had an ancestor named Brutus Malfoy who died during the Anglo-Dutch War in 1675. He was the editor of Wizards at War.

The content of that magazine has nothing to do with war or wizards. All in all, pure bloods are unwilling to get involved in Muggle affairs. After all, they don't want to feel superior in the "vulnerable Muggles".

Of course, he would not join the war like Henry Potter, even if the situation of the Anglo-Dutch war had been reversed by then.

In 1673, because Ruyt defeated Britain in the naval battle and William III occupied Maastricht, Britain signed the "Treaty of Westminster" and withdrew from the alliance, and France also withdrew its troops in the same year.At that time, Fager, the guardian of William III, once signed the "Permanent Act" on behalf of the minor William. This act stipulated that all states in the Netherlands did not allow William to become governor or admiral. Governing party talents helped William III win the power to become governor and admiral.

The Amsterdam Dam was dug, the French and the British retreated, and the prestige of William III increased greatly. What's more, the French were still in Maastricht and were ready to make a comeback at any time. No one mentioned the "Permanent Act", but Fager Instead, William advised William to regard the liberated provinces of Utrecht, Gelderland, and Overlessel as conquered territories as punishment for their swift surrender to the enemy.

The Utrecht Alliance was the basis for the independence of the Netherlands, getting rid of Spanish rule, and establishing the federal republic. At first, there were only 7 provinces. This period was a period of rapid development in the Netherlands, and the prosperity of the Dutch East India Company brought huge wealth.However, when the French and British coalition forces came, these provinces were not united. Instead, rebellions occurred. Even the former Dutch governor De White was assassinated while walking on the street. Louis XIV, who was stationed in Utrecht, negotiated and promised to make concessions in terms of reparations and territory, but Louis XIV did not agree. He was waiting for a better time to attack.

A scandal arose shortly after William III came to power. Dwight's younger brother, as administrator, was plotting to kill William III. The accusation was made by a notorious surgeon and barber.

When the injured Dwight went to the prison to visit his younger brother, the door was surrounded by angry people, and the cavalry was maintaining order, but when Dwight entered the prison, the soldiers were suddenly withdrawn, and the two brothers were surrounded in the prison inside.

Dwight asked William III to send troops, but William III said that there was a riot in the province and there was no soldier to transfer. Then the Dwight brothers were dragged out by the furious people and killed, and hung up for public display.

Immediately afterwards, William III rejected Faggle's proposal, still believed that these three provinces belonged to the United Provinces, and obtained special authorization from the states to re-appoint all representatives of these provinces. In 1674, William's followers in Utrecht appointed him hereditary lord of the city. In 1675, Gelderland awarded William III the Duke of Goulds and the Count of Zsteffen, but he was resisted by Sealand and Amsterdam. So William finally gave up these two titles and became the city governor of Gelderland and Auwissel.

Maybe Hufflepuff won't fight like Gryffindor, they also resist "injustice", when Harry Potter became the No.4 Triwizard Tournament player, Pomona also wanted to be like the children Wear a medal in protest.

It was enough for Georgiana to be "City Prefect", she had no intention of becoming a lord like Margaret of Austria.

This is the second time that William III helped her. The first time she "forgave" Bonaparte, there will be many mistresses in the future. This time she needs careful planning, otherwise Bonaparte will not forgive a "betrayed" him of people.

This is different from Josephine's way of betrayal, and Lucien will not let her go. Lucien is not merciful to women like Napoleon.

Literati love to use poison, and the group who assassinated Caesar could not find a chance to poison him. Caesar was in the era of slavery, and there were people who tested poison for him, so they used daggers to assassinate him.In this era of equality and human rights, there is no such rule. Napoleon bought three slaves from Egypt. They originally had this "job".

When Dante came out of hell and came under the stars in the southern hemisphere, he came to purgatory.Unlike hell, there is still hope in purgatory, and the original sin of the first layer of purgatory is pride.

That hole, and Lucifer, who is also guilty of the original sin of pride, reminded her of an hourglass. Originally, this hourglass should be one-way. People who cannot cleanse their sins in purgatory will fall into hell. Who would think of turning it upside down? ?

Copernicus had read "The Sand Counter", and the replacement of the earth-centered theory by the heliocentric theory brought about earth-shaking cognitive changes.

There are also many people outside of purgatory, who are vying to be tortured, and those who wander helplessly on the edge of hell.If you can't go to heaven, it's easy to understand if you stay at the gate of heaven. Why are there so many people outside the gate of hell and purgatory?
In fact, Georgiana has another way, which is to use the Imperius Curse on the first Muggle ruler.

That was unforgivable, even if her plan was known, it was also unforgivable. Most importantly, she was not sure whether the plan could be implemented smoothly.

She can't be a talker, after all, she knows a lot of people who were "cleaned" from the tribunal.

Birds of a feather flock together and people form groups. She hopes that she can lead him well instead of being led badly by him.The first five layers of hell described by Dante are uncontrollable. The green lion represents uncontrolled ambition. It will hunt down everything in the forest like a blood lion until the hero kills it.

I still don't want you to be someone else's prey, hanging your head on the wall like a trophy.

In the end, Georgiana ended the dance early on the grounds that she was too tired. If she asked Bonaparte, he would definitely not stop, and would stick to the end.

Then she got into the carriage with the help of Matilda, and returned to Margaret's palace in Austria under the escort of the knights.

At about 11 o'clock, she rested by herself after making sure that he would not sleep with her tonight. If he still had that random thought tonight, she never thought that she would become homeless one day. People who don't know where they've been.

She smiled wryly and closed her eyes. In her dream, she returned to the castle by the lake, but there was no one she was familiar with inside. Only those stone pier statues still stood on the outer wall of the castle. She always thought they were It is an ornament.

When she was in a daze, she seemed to see someone sleeping beside her, but she didn't care anymore, and fell asleep together holding the other's hand.

For a moment, she thought she could smell Sirius' soap, and then the "person" who slept with her turned into a big black dog. The horses are much better.She felt so safe, like being guarded by a knight.
