Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 2141 Flower Controversy (49)

In Rousseau's "Comment on the Two Political Works of the Abbe Saint-Pierre" there are these words:

I opened the book on rights and morals, listened to the words of scholars and jurists, and was deeply moved by their beautiful words. I lament the misery of nature, praise the justice and peace established by the social order, wish the social system will always be as good as it is, and rejoice that I am now a citizen and have a deep understanding of my duties and happiness. I closed the book, walked out of the classroom, and looked around me. I found: the unfortunate people under the iron shackles are crying, human beings are bullied by a small group of oppressors; The strong crush the weak with the authority of terrible laws.

All this went smoothly without any resistance. In such a peaceful state, it was as if Ulysses' companions were locked up in Cyclop's cave, waiting to be eaten one by one. Everyone sighed and couldn't say a word. Let us cover up these horrible sights with a thick cloth. I looked up and saw that the smoke was filling the sky, the flames were soaring into the sky, the farmland was barren, and the city was looted. Crazy people, where are you going to put these unfortunates? I hear a shriek! Chaos is everywhere! There was a lot of shouting! There was a scene of murder in front of my eyes. Thousands of people were massacred, and the dying groaned under the hooves of the horses.

The mechanism of peace has produced such a result! A wave of sadness and resentment welled up in my heart.

Savage philosophers invite you to the battlefield to preach your books!

Faced with these sad scenes of cultivation, can we not be heartbroken?

"Stop." Bonaparte said impatiently, "Why are you mentioning St. Pierre again?"

"I didn't write it." Georgiana also said irritably.

He didn't look like he wanted to hear it anymore.

"Imagine you are a monk. What Rousseau said is that you put down the book and leave the meditation room to see the world of reincarnation."

He looked at her with a terrifying look.

Georgiana stared into those eyes, as if she saw many things, such as battlefields, and one riot after another.

"Do you mean 'the strong in arms crush the weak with the authority of terrible laws'?" asked Georgiana.

"Do you think I am such a man?" asked Bonaparte.

"You can't deny that the new civil code does contain some people's selfishness."

He stood up and began to walk up and down agitatedly.

"I recently figured out a problem." Georgiana said slowly, "Although I don't believe in a proven god that doesn't exist, I can understand it by understanding its creation. Have you ever heard of John? thunder?"

"Who's that? Another priest?" he asked menacingly.

"He was a naturalist at the same time as Isaac Newton, and he discovered the beauty of the plants on the earth, and the wonders of nature." Georgiana looked him in the eyes and said, "I know another naturalist who It's called Newt Scamander, he wrote a book about animals called Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, I don't really know him very well, although he's a celebrity in our college because I study plants We both think the natural world is magical, even though John is a Muggle and Newt is a zoologist. If we could get together one day, we'd probably think each other was an alien."

"You know what Rousseau said about women in this book?"

"I can read it myself." Georgiana raised the book in her hand, "After reading this book."

"You don't like parties and magic?"

"I like magic school banquets." She said a little tiredly. "I can't believe that I would say something like that one day. It might make me happy to see children mischievous."

He looked at her with weird eyes.

"I don't like students who are too docile and obedient. Of course, that doesn't mean they can put Niu Niu in my office, and like Cuvier's students, they wear scary masks to scare people." She complained dissatisfied "Can you imagine how horrible that was? Albus felt like giving the students some freedom, and then Weasley blew up the school..."

"I thought it was a joke."

"That's not a joke. They did blow up the school, they just didn't take the roof off." Georgiana said wearily. "And there were dung bombs everywhere in the corridors. Those students didn't know how difficult it was to clean up."

Bonaparte glanced at the sky outside.

"We'll spend the night here tonight," he announced. "Tomorrow we're leaving."

"I can read to you while sailing."

"Do you still remember what that sage named Zhuangzi said? A man from the state of Chu, crossing the river in the middle of the night but annoyed the boatman."

Georgiana thought for a moment. "Are you worried about being attacked at night?"

"And other people can't see who the murderer is." Bonaparte sat down. "Those magicians have attracted many reporters."

Georgiana did not answer him.

"Keep reading." He said calmly.

So Georgiana dropped the long comment on St. Pierre and read what happened next.

Cao Xi intends to arrest Nick quietly, perhaps to interrogate him.

"Where did you get that note?" Juren asked Nick.

He couldn't answer, and of course he wouldn't be so stupid as to say that Taoist priests sent demons and monsters into his room with lightning methods.

"What did the pirate ask you?" Juren asked.

"They asked me what the officers and soldiers asked me," Nick said.

Juren didn't seem to understand what Nick was saying.

"Did no one find out? Everyone was kept in the dark." Nick said.

Juren pondered.

"The note..."

"I don't know where it came from!" Nick grumbled.

"If the note is forged, who do you think is the most likely?" Juren asked again.

Nick didn't know why Juren asked such a question to a foreigner.

"The authorities are confused, but the bystanders are clear." Juren explained.

Nick wanted to leave, but he might implicate others after he left, even if he had "fame".

People here will use "unnecessary" charges to convict people, and they will also hire people to make false accusations like Lin Yuhua.

"Could someone be trying to kill me," Nick said.

"Who wants to kill you?"

"Cao Xi."

Juren looked at him in surprise.

"He was worried about losing his fiancée," Nick explained.

"I knew it, it must be a woman who caused chaos in the world." Juren said with a sigh.

Nick thinks this idea is unfair to women, and he pushes back.

Juren was thinking about it, and after a long time he said as if to himself, "Is it worth taking such a big risk in order to get rid of a rival in love?"

Faced with such a dilemma, Nick could not think of a solution.

At this time, he felt hungry, so Juren took him to eat the vegetarian food in the temple, and then arranged a place for him.

Nick is now wearing the clothes of a Chinese scholar, but his hair is still the same. People asked him if he would like to shave his head, and Nick agreed.

He will try to dress like a local so that no one can tell he is a foreigner unless he speaks.

Amid anxiety and worry, Nick felt that it was necessary to improve his Chinese proficiency. If he was reported to the government, what a risk he would take!

After dealing with all this, the monks had finished their evening class and returned to the meditation room one after another. In order not to make people suspicious, Nick went back to his room. Although the bed in the Buddhist temple was still very hard, it was much better than the stone bed. Fell asleep soon.

He didn't ask Juren the question: Who did you kill?

Although he had developed a sense of trust with the old Juren, and he also showed Nick his beliefs, however, this was different.

Perhaps, this has something to do with the old Juren's experience of being captured by pirates, and this is why many people don't want to have anything to do with pirates, because it will tarnish their reputation, and the old Juren's secret seems to be well protected That's right, others only think of him as an unlucky literati who has failed many trials, otherwise, what would others think of him?
