Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 1353 Voters and Abandoned People

Georgiana ordered the Recamier recliner to be placed in the church library. She felt that only by lying here could she think about the answers to certain questions.

However, after she lay down here, she didn't think about anything, her mind was blank, and there was nothing else except the thought of repentance.

So she sent someone to find Caprara, and while waiting, she stared at the murals on the ceiling in a daze.

Leon asked her to find other women to be her role models. After thinking about it, even if she didn't find a good role model to learn from, she shouldn't learn from the bad role models. Those from the previous dynasty, such as Madame du Barry and Madame Pompidou are examples. .

In ancient China, there was also a precedent of "the rooster serving the morning". Maybe she interfered too much in the government affairs.

Compared with Josephine, Georgiana felt that she should know Mrs. Starr better. She asked Sophie to find the works written by that woman and start to analyze and read them. Only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle:

When the laws of a society can neither punish parents who abuse authority nor husbands or wives who misbehave, but only prohibit divorce, then the laws are only harsh on the victims, and they only put the victims in chains. Saying "I can't guarantee your happiness, but I can at least make your unhappiness last".

It appears that Mrs. Starr, like Georgiana, was a woman who opposed the current divorce law.

I just don't know if it occurred to her that Napoleon Bonaparte, who made this law, was also a victim of marriage.

Mrs. Starr's understanding of the pressure of public opinion is also different from Georgiana's understanding.

Delphine fell in love with the aristocratic youth Levone, but the latter was already engaged to Delfina's cousin Matilda. Mrs. Fannon, Erda's mother, confides the truth and asks her to help her.

However, when the matter failed, Mrs. Irvine had a romantic incident in her home, and the public opinion was in an uproar. Many people who did not know the truth pointed their finger at Delphine. Mrs. Vernon secretly provoked to protect the interests of her daughter. Although the misunderstanding was resolved afterwards, due to the legal provisions prohibiting divorce, the two could only look at each other from a distance in a passionate and polite way.

After reading this story, Georgiana can only describe it as ridiculous. Delphine is like Lewinsky without the blue dress, telling the secret to the wrong person, and finally causing herself to be the target of public criticism. Mrs. Stahl's focus is on the issue of not being able to divorce. Delphine is like an extramarital affair who pestered a man to divorce and then married herself. Only Levons knew that those rumors were all misunderstandings, Delfina's reputation had been ruined, no other man would marry her, she had no other choice, right?

Why did she ask Matilda's mother to "make it perfect"? Matilda, who was robbed of her husband, would definitely resent Delfina. With Matilda's mother's understanding, could it be that the two of them can continue to be sisters?

Napoleoni is now a target, and everyone hates him and hopes that he will die soon, so that Georgiana's words about his life and death can be regarded as love words by him.

She hopes to bring people of character and ability into the court, but Mr. Martin is not who she thinks he is. Bonnefort has already occupied Lyon, and Martin seems to want to swallow up the trade route of Strasbourg as well. Look how capable he is. First, he exempted France from taxation on raw silk from Germany, and now he wants to The Jews were expelled from Alsace. Fortunately, Napoleon is not Louis XV, and women can do what they say, but this kind of person is really tiring to use.

She wants to trust someone so that she will not be so tired, but it is written in the Theory of the King that if the monarch completely trusts people and lacks other preparations, he will perish.

It's a woman's nature to want to find someone to rely on. Today, it's hard to go well, but troubles will appear immediately.

She cried sadly, not because of the nonsense stories written by Mrs. Starr, but because of the increasingly hopeless future. Napoleoni used to say that priests are better than dreamers. She didn't agree with it at first, but now she Started to agree.

Mrs. Starr is an idealist. The marriage that Georgiana understands is to find a man who will not forget the old love and will not abandon his wife just because he has become great, and support him to fulfill his dream safely.

But there are fewer and fewer such men.

What else to marry? If you don't get married, there is no divorce issue, and there is no need for a woman like Mrs. Starr who can't understand her position to protest.

Her husband is a Swede, and French law doesn't apply to Swedes.

She can divorce any time she wants, and Georgiana wishes her an early family breakdown.

Later she would find out about Madame Starr's life in Paris and write to Starr Hussein to describe it so he could write a divorce statement.

No prostitute would tolerate a place like a salon, especially if his wife presided over it, without the gendarmerie arresting her and hanging her.

By the way, Georgiana can also eliminate Leon's political enemy Benjamin Gunsdang.

This person is also Swiss, and Napoleoni's intuition is still there.

She sorted out her thoughts, and as soon as she asked Sophie to let Godin, who loves to write scripts, handle this matter, Caprara came.

This is the benefit of the court confessor, even if the church is closed, she can still find the priest.

"May the Lord bless you." Caprara drew a cross on Georgiana, and she avoided it subconsciously.

"I have a question for you, Father." Georgiana asked calmly. "What do you think of the Jews?"

Caprara raised an eyebrow "Can I ask why?"

"I want to do the right thing and help people in need to return to a normal life." Georgiana said anxiously, "But some people make trouble when others need help, and use usury to take away other people's property..."

"The Jews are very different from us," Caprara said. "Have you read their Talmud?"

"I know Kabbalah," said Georgiana.

"That's very profound knowledge."

"It's not as difficult as you think." She said indifferently, "Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden are like pets. As long as they obey the master's orders, they can be carefree. In the world outside the Garden of Eden, they become stray dogs. If you have to find food and build a house by yourself, you can no longer be carefree."

"What's your choice?"

"The truth," she said coldly, "even if it's cruel."

"I thought you chose family, and I saw the temperament of a mother in you."

"Don't call me Maria," she said wearily. "Have you ever seen a Madonna like me?"

"Usury didn't harm your interests, why are you so angry?"

"They're getting in my way!"

"The kingdom of heaven is like a net that was cast into the sea and gathered all kinds of fish. When the net was full, men drew it ashore, picked the good and put them in vessels, and threw away the bad. It will be like this at the end of the world. Angels will come out, and separate the wicked from the righteous, and cast them into the fiery furnace..."

"I don't want to hear the New Testament." Georgiana directly interrupted Caprara.

"But you told me you liked the story of the prodigal son, and that's in the New Testament, too," Caprara said. "You only want to hear what you want to hear?"

Georgiana calmed down.

"Calvin believes that God divides people into the chosen and the abandoned. The chosen get rich and everything goes well, and enter heaven after death. The abandoned is the opposite. Famine is God's gift for those who do not rely on virtue but only work hard to get rich. Gift, how can you look at the Jews and not the Protestants?"

"I did not expect."

"What would you do if the Protestants were involved in usury?"

"I don't know..." she said irritably.

"The Jews clearly divide the natives from the Gentiles. They refuse to integrate into a society. They will not lend usury to the natives. Before leaving Rome, I hesitated whether to go to London or Paris first, and then I came When I got here, I felt the atmosphere of integration in France. A nation that refuses to integrate is doomed to be excluded when it comes to a country that wants to integrate. The power of love is the key to open the door of God’s heaven. Encouraging good and reducing evil can pull people together. Close the distance between you and God, you don’t need to wait until the judgment day when the angels come to pick you out and take you to the kingdom of heaven.”

"How do you know I'm going to heaven."

"You showed me heaven, and Mrs. Starr showed me hell." Caprara looked at the scattered books on the ground and said, "She was also in the palace on the day the citizens of Paris poured into Versailles."

"What was she doing there?"

"She is the wife of the Swedish ambassador to France, and she is also the daughter of the chief financial officer." Caprara said calmly, "The king was relieved to see Lafayette. Going to Paris, the Duke of Leoncourt assisted Necker to regain power, they were going to send the king from Versailles to Paris, but they were blocked by the crowd, if the Duke of Orléans dispersed the crowd at that time, the king would not lose everything, but La One of Fayette's soldiers said he saw the Duke of Orléans standing on the regent's throne, almost within reach."

"How do you know?"

"That man came to confess, just like you," Caprara said. "Later, when the National Guard arrived, his chance was gone, and Lafayette could not prove that the Duke planned to conspire to usurp the throne that day. What happened later You know it too."

Georgiana nodded.

"Mrs. Stahl was once at a dinner with Mrs. Récamier, and a young man was sitting between them, and the young man said triumphantly 'I am between wit and beauty now', if it were you, What would you say."

"I won't say anything."

"Mrs. Starr said, 'That's true, but you're not on board with either'."

"My God," Georgiana exclaimed, "it's horrible."

Caprara smiled eccentrically, but made no comment.

"I suddenly found it easier to persuade usury to be good." Georgiana murmured, "I can't believe it."

"I can assist you." Caprara said with a smile, "Just like what the First Consul did in Italy, first persuade and then use force."

"It's the law."

"Jews will not tear up the contract easily. This is part of the doctrine." Caprara looked at the books on the bookshelf. "In order to fulfill the contract, morality can be put aside."

"Then how do you make them give up the contract?" Georgiana asked.

"Break the promise and you will be punished. Only those who fulfill the promise can live a happy life. We need to make them feel that only by breaking the promise can they live a happy life."

"How can this be?"

"There is nothing impossible in Napoleon's dictionary." Caprara picked out a book and flipped through it. "Everything can be changed. Impossibility is only found in the mediocre dictionary."

"You also started to learn how to speak from him?"

"Look for it, daughter." Caprara said lightly, "Happiness is the greatest display of personal value. Isn't that why you miss this land?"

"How do you know?"

Caprara didn't answer her, so Georgiana went to find the book herself.
