Harry Potter Morning Light

According to Gamp's law of transformation: Food cannot be conjured out of thin air, nor can it turn other things into food, even if you eat it.

After the fall of the Bastille, gunshots rained down all over France. Stags, does, wild boars, hares, mountain doves, and even the dovecotes in castles were not spared. In the savannahs of Africa or America, any animal belongs to the person who kills it.

People began to loot in droves with open force, and a judge once said, "What shall we be in this land where there is no bread? Food for wild beasts."

Adding to the dire situation were the 1,600 sacks of flour that could have been sent to the city if the robbery hadn't occurred. To make matters worse, fueled by rumors that "someone" threw sacks of flour into the Seine, and that cavalry horses were deliberately fed young crops from wheat fields, Brittany had been exporting grain , someone is hoarding abroad and so on.

These rumors can easily rush into the minds of people with empty stomachs, and the people are looking for imaginary enemies everywhere, like being guided by the Furies in the dark, rampaging on the "prairie".

At this time, there should be public power, and people should obey the public power. However, when there are several public powers, they do not cooperate with each other, but destroy each other. ears.

The old fool said to sympathize with the living, but in this troubled world, people will soon get used to death. At this time, the belief in supporting people to continue to act became "I will not be next." Facing the most violent people, although Louis XVI ordered the Swiss mercenaries not to shoot, there were still mercenaries who were unwilling to die there and chose to die there. Resist with the nobles of the sword.

So the Tuileries Palace was soaked in blood, they even seeped into the floor, even after the renovation, it still didn't disperse.

In suspense detective movies, it is often seen that an ordinary day is broken by a woman's scream.

Maybe it's because of this, if such a "small scene" makes a man scream in fright, what should we do if there is a bigger scene?

Massena, who was once besieged in Genoa and was eaten up by mice, was a very greedy person. The insatiable looting of the Italian Legion was no different from the sack of Rome in 1527. There were so many violations of discipline that Napoleon gave up shooting, because he believed that it would be futile to increase the number of sentences before rebuilding order. Even if a few were shot by chance, it was because of dealing with some people who were difficult to deal with.

And this is what Napoleon often said, "If you want to occupy and control Italy, you must have an army, an army!" Under this premise, he established a "three-person representative system" so that the powers of these representatives during their tenure can be maintained. .

The nobles weaved a complex web of relationships through marriage, and this was the cornerstone of their rule.

When Marie Antoinette came to Compiègne, the French and Austrian alliance deeds were also signed together. It seems that when the goods arrive at the place, the buyer signs and confirms that marriage is both a benefit and a ceremony.

In the eyes of many people, the marriage between Napoleon and Josephine was an exchange of interests. Josephine introduced this young general from Corsica, including the country, to the top French officials, and got the opportunity to go to Italy. Josephine gained a life of luxury.

As long as there is a marriage relationship, no matter how many lovers Bonaparte has outside, her status will not be shaken. What's more, she was the one who was unfaithful in the first place. What's the use of crying in France and accusing Napoleon of not taking her out on this trip?

Even in Genoa, people knew that Josephine got a pearl necklace that originally belonged to Marie Antoinette. Even if she planned to imitate Cleopatra and drink it in vinegar, that would be nothing. Only worth a few hundred thousand francs.

For these well-informed classes, nothing is a secret.

In addition to the 26 million francs, these Genoese have also heard of the "everyday warehouse" plan. This huge grain reserve plan will cost at least 1.2 billion francs to store the grain consumption of the French for a year, of which It does not include the cost of building granaries and transport infrastructure such as canals.

When Egypt became a Roman province, the Egyptians provided Rome with almost free food. Except for a part of the food that was used for the local use of Rome and the welfare of Roman citizens-free bread, some food was even regarded as a commodity for the Romans to buy barbarians.

After Ptolemy occupied Egypt, he continued the huge bureaucratic system headed by financial officials in ancient Egypt, responsible for tax assessment and tax collection. With Rome's food, the barbarians allied with Rome could attack their feud, so Egypt became very important to Rome. When natural disasters and man-made disasters happened in Egypt, and the food harvest failed, Rome would also be affected. Over the years, these "wealths" "That's a lot more than Cleopatra's ostentation in Egypt.

Regarding this point, the Venetians and Genoese who once dominated the Mediterranean trade are very clear, although Europe has entered the Middle Ages when they were active.

Caelum non animation muatant qui trans mare currunt.

Those who cross the sea only change the weather without changing their nature.

The Genoese sold Corsica to France, not only because the Genoese were tired of suppressing the Corsican independence movement, but also because France wanted to gain a decent foothold in the Mediterranean. When Charles VIII of France planned to enter Italy in 1494, the Genoese also allied with him, because the Genoese wanted to use the French to acquire Lombardy, and Charles also planned to find a place in Italy.

However, Italy at that time was under the rule of the Pope, the Venetians, the King of Naples, the Duke of Milan and the Florentines. No one can enlarge his country.

Bonaparte taught Georgiana that when reading Machiavelli's book, the first thing to pay attention to is how a monarch should treat his subjects and allies.

In addition, it is necessary to distinguish clearly what is a friend and what is an ally.

These ambitious fellows are always at the mercy of the wind, and if they saw Bonaparte in an advantageous position, they would support him against his enemies; if he saw a setback, they would not hesitate to abandon him.

It is useless to cry out the sufferings of the people in front of these people. For now, they are very satisfied with the "King of France" who was born in Corsica and holds military power. Of course, not all Genoese are satisfied with this new Order is satisfied, they want to go back to "the past", such as when Austria controlled Italy or when the power of the "Holy See" was still strong.

Thrift is a virtue. According to legend, the white wedding dress was popular because Queen Victoria believed that dyed fabrics were a waste and vanity. At the same time, white has also been endowed with the meaning of purity and loyalty. Since then, white wedding dress has become the absolute mainstream.

But Georgiana remembered a painting in which Napoleon was holding the crown, with the Pope sitting behind him. Kneeling before him was Josephine, now in a long white dress and scarlet cloak, and behind her Napoleon's sisters were also wearing white dresses.

Because of his association with the aristocracy, attorney Jim White was well placed for the occasion. But just a few days ago, he was just an exile who had to flee to Belgium because he accidentally killed the Viscount. In order to survive, he worked as a lawyer for a group of craftsmen who were looking for investors everywhere.

And this is what the Great Revolution brought about. The commander who commanded the Battle of Toulon was no more than a painter, and Jourdan was the son of a surgeon.

There is a saying that says, opportunities always come to those who are prepared.

But when the opportunity comes, no matter whether you are ready or not, those who dare not give it a go are doomed to be mediocre.

No matter how angry she was, Marie Antoinette dared not write to Queen Teresa. There was once a princess who wrote a letter to Attila, the "Whip of God", hoping to marry him. Although it is said that she did it to get rid of an unsatisfactory marriage partner, there are also legends that it was the princess who had an affair with the palace Not to mention, she is also pregnant with the child of the palace minister. If the two of them succeed in their conspiracy and successfully overthrow the emperor of the Western Roman Empire, then the direction of history will be very different.

But the emperor had already noticed that the palace minister who conspired against the rebellion was executed, and the princess ran away from Byzantium. Although she gave birth to a child successfully, she lost her most important alliance and all opportunities to seize power, so the queen mother casually found her a Marriage object, a recognized "honest person".

The princess was not reconciled to her fate stopping there, so she made a decision that could change the fate of thousands of people.

If Marie Antoinette had written that letter, she would have had a different historical infamy, but with her education in Habsburg, she probably didn’t know, or the princess of the Western Roman Empire would be regarded as the opposite teaching materials.

When Hathor used the Eye of Ra God to turn into Sekhmet to kill the world, she should be the image of a lioness at that time, because Sekhmet is a lioness. In ancient Egyptian words, Sekhmet Meite means "strength".

Georgiana placed these "old families" in myth and history, making them feel as if they were also a member of the "Conquerors".

"Have you read the novel written by the First Consul?"

said the Genoese who proposed a toast to Montesquieu, while Georgiana was watching the "results."

"Isn't it..."

"Crison was honored and envied at a young age. One day he suddenly thought about his situation. The desire for simple happiness swallowed him up. When Eugenie entered his world, he gave up. The pursuit of honor without fun," said the man without courtesy.

Georgiana smiled.

"What's the fun?" he asked.

"How old is Eugenie?" Georgiana asked, smiling.

"According to the book, she is one year younger than seventeen-year-old Amerie," he replied.

"If I was 16, I'd believe it too," Georgiana said with a smile.

"You don't believe it?"

"No, I believe, it's just that we're not young anymore."
