Harry Potter Morning Light

Victor Hugo once described Notre Dame Cathedral in his work "Notre Dame de Paris" as a huge stone symphony.

But Georgiana felt that it was very gloomy here. The lighting in the stone church was not good. Most of the light came from the three large rose windows and high-level windows in the west and horizontal halls. These huge windows are colorful and magnificent. The stained glass through which the sun shines so dimly that candles are lit in broad daylight.

The last time Georgiana came to see the Crown of Thorns was on the second floor on the north side of the church. After entering through the door behind the pipe organ, there are two spiral staircases. Going up is a corridor. On the platform between the corridors is the small triangular shape. The chapel is gone.

The crown of thorns was originally hidden on the bell tower of Notre Dame de Paris. Later, the priests worried that it would be damaged by the citizens, so they climbed to the rooster weathervane on the roof at night, so that the holy object escaped unharmed. Later, the interior gradually became peaceful, and the priests took it down from the weather vane and put it back in its original place.

The lighting there is very good, and you can overlook the scenery of the Seine. It is said that there are three other holy objects in the rooster weathervane, including the bones of Saint Genevieve, although most of her remains were in the city hall at that time. It was burned, but part of it was rescued by priests and hid in the weather vane together with the crown of thorns.

The place where Caprara met Georgiana this time was not such a well-known place, but the basement of Notre Dame de Paris, a place that few people except priests knew.

Caprara was praying when Georgiana arrived there under the leadership of the priest. Georgiana did not disturb him, but looked around. It cannot be compared with the collection of the Louvre.

"These are the remains of the city from Roman times." Caprara said, turning his back to Georgiana. "Each dynasty builds from the ruins of the previous one."

"Napolione said something similar," said Georgiana. "What do you want me to do, father?"

Caprara stood up slowly, then turned to look at her.

"Whenever the city is in crisis, there is always a saint," said Caprara softly, "but neither Joan of Arc nor Saint Genevieve is a virgin."

"Unfortunately, I am not." Georgiana said with a wry smile, "Did I let you down?"

"Are you a savior or a destroyer?" Caprara carefully distinguished her "If those aqueducts are really built..."

"Paris will no longer be Paris, but Rome, do you want to tell me this too?" Georgiana sarcastically said, "Do you know how difficult it is to lay pipes from the ground?"

"Human beings do not lack the courage and perseverance to overcome difficulties. What I want to ask is, what are you doing now?" Caprara asked earnestly, "Do you want to turn Paris into the 'capital of the world'?"

"I don't know." Georgiana said blankly, "I was kicked out just now. Thanks to the women's shelter for taking me in, otherwise I would be homeless too."

Caprara sighed. "It seems that this is fate, child. Only those who have lost their way are eligible for forgiveness."

"I don't think they are lost." Georgiana smiled and shook her head. "They just haven't learned any lessons."

"Confession is part of faith."

"You mean those who eat biscuits during the communion ceremony? They won't repent." Georgiana still shook her head with a smile. ? I have to move."

"Don't you want to tell me something?"

"I was seriously thinking about becoming a nun." Georgiana said seriously, "But that day I was wearing a nun's clothes, and he still violated me."

Caprara shook her head with her eyes closed, turned around and took a stack of papers from the shrine, and handed them to Georgiana.

"What's this?"

"What the French did in Lombardy and Egypt," Caprara said quietly.

"I don't want to know more sins." Georgiana didn't pick up the papers. "I want to keep a clean soul."

"Napoleon told me that you chose the truth between truth and happiness." Caprara passed some of the papers to Georgiana, "Although I am no longer the bishop of Paris, I am still your guardian and confessor, Marie Antoinette had one too, but he ran away when she needed him, instead of persuading people to be kind, he learned the greed and extravagance of the court, which is his sin, and I don't want to be like him, Go to the Lord as a sinner and accept the final judgment."

"So you don't care about other people's souls for the sake of your own soul?" Georgiana sneered, "Who will save my soul?"

"After reading these materials, I will tell you a secret." Caprara said blankly.

"About what?"

"Read it," Caprara said forcefully.

Georgiana hesitated for a moment, took the materials, and then read them by the dim candlelight in the basement.

All these words were typed with a typewriter, and they were still in English. It was impossible to understand with Napoleon's English vocabulary, even if it was not encrypted.

Napoleon collected a large amount of military taxes in Lombardy. In addition, he had to eliminate a large number of pro-Austrian parties who opposed him. This party was composed of a part of the nobility and monks. support.

He is particularly good at using the slogan of freedom, distributing a large amount of propaganda materials, handing over the administrative power of provinces, cities and villages to the residents themselves, and letting the residents choose the most fair and respected people to take up this job. Police duties are all in the hands of the National Guard. These National Guards were also composed of Lombards, just imitating the appearance of France. They also used red, white, and blue as the colors of the flag, and replaced the rule of the Governor of Austria with democracy and republic.

The bottom line of these materials is supplemented with the opinion that the judges of the courts should also choose locals, and that the governor only deals with the death penalty.

The following information talks about Napoleon's handling of ownership issues in Egypt. Napoleon once coordinated with the "Orientals" to deal with this matter. Part of the village land is used as "wasya" to compensate for the loss of land rent. For other land that does not belong to "Wassia", no more than a quarter of the harvest is handed over as land rent, and the rest is owned by the farmers themselves.

In addition, there are some supplements, such as allowing local students to study in France to instruct them in medicine, mechanics, law, accounting and other knowledge.

These supplementary terms didn't say where, but Georgiana knew it well.

"Why didn't you just tell him?" Georgiana looked away from the file and looked at Caprara.

"A poor widow gave all the silver coins she had, and I think God will reward her." Caprara said softly, "Now it's up to you to tell him or not."

"You put all the responsibility on me?"

"Do you still hope that the French will win?"

Georgiana said nothing.

"How do you feel now?"

"We women usually say 'nothing'," she said with a smile, before her face changed "I'm angry!"

"Do you know why?" Caprara asked.

"I'm disgraced... I can't go through this at all." She cried, "Who else in this world is more stupid than me!"

"I'm referring to why this storm is concentrated on you." Caprara said softly, "Do you know who the Governor of Paris is?"

"Juno."

"He hated the British very much. He was supposed to sail back to France in October 1799, but he was seriously injured in a duel and was captured by the British on the way. Later, he came back after exchanging prisoners. His mind was a little out of order. , The reason why he will fight with people is because someone insulted the god in his eyes, Napoleon, do you know the reason?"

"Juno told him about Josephine," Georgiana whispered.

"He got confused, and he concentrated all his hatred on the British. When Bonaparte ordered the arrest of the British, he did not hesitate and carried it out without dissuading him. Feeling regretful, he sent Juno to Spain as an ambassador. The current governor of Paris was taken over by Marmont. He was only "in charge" and did not have the title of governor. Marmont took over."

Georgiana sneered.

"Marmont's father was a retired royal official who owned an ironworks. Do you see why now?"

"Sometimes I wish he had been divorced." Georgiana wiped away tears. "It's a pity he wasn't an ungrateful man."

"Even when Napoleon was at his worst, Marmont did not abandon him, and still followed him. Both he and Juno were Napoleon's confidantes. Do you think you can beat them?"

"I'm not even sure if I want to help the French." Georgiana said indifferently, "As long as the chickens are caught, they won't crow."

Caprara smiled. "Cicero?"

"You read it too?"

"It's a pleasure to read and discuss with you." Caprara smiled cheerfully.

"They've done all these things, but they've all forgotten," said Georgiana, looking at the paper in her hand.

"You can burn it, with your flame." Caprara's eyes reflected the flickering candlelight.

"If I did this, wouldn't it be a waste for you to type this document in English?" Georgiana rolled it up.

"I think this is fate. When he was in the desert, Napoleon also decided to return to China after reading English newspapers." Caprara said with his hands behind his back. woman."

"I can't teach them." She refused directly. "Do you have anything else?"

"Please have mercy," Caprara said. "Marianna."

"I don't know how many names you guys are going to name me, but none of them are me." Georgiana sneered and said, "You know what I'm thinking now? I hope they can both lose and die together."

"This is also a choice." Caprara said calmly, "The doomsday judgment will go through the sea of ​​fire, and your strength is the judgment."

Georgiana ignored him no more.

She has a crazy plan in her mind, and it will be a very harmonious and beautiful society.

Of course she won't say it, because it's a secret that can't be told.
