Harry Potter Morning Light
Chapter 3260 new castle (2)
Many creatures have the ability to fight back against attacks that endanger the survival of the population. For example, bees will sting those who destroy their nests, and humans will execute wolves, tigers and other animals that attack the same kind. This kind of revenge is not only instinctive to repel imminent harm; It acts as a deterrent and defense for human survival, progress and development.
Without this defensive function, wolves will not be afraid of humans and will keep their distance from humans, even if the other person is a cub. It is afraid of the endless pursuit and revenge brought about by its desire to satisfy its appetite for a while, and would rather be hungry for a while and look for other prey in the forest. The big bad wolf in Little Red Riding Hood eats people without mercy, and the hunter takes revenge on him.
Although the decoration was impromptu, Mr. Schelerier took out the design drawings as if he had already prepared them.
It is no longer news in Paris that Josephine renovated Georgiana's residence in a Burgundy castle. What's more, the procedures for buying such a large house cannot be solved in a day or two. In order to keep Mademoiselle Chevigny's opera house chief As a dancer, she visited many celebrities, and well-informed people could easily detect that Georgiana would need decoration.
Both Murat and Caroline knew how to congratulate Hortense and Louis and give them expensive gifts. The newlyweds lived outside and had to buy everything. This was much more practical than the wedding dress business that Georgiana had wanted to do.
No matter how dreamy a wedding dress is, it can't change the fact that two people who don't love each other are united. After the secular wedding was held at the Tuileries Palace, Murat and Caroline persuaded Louis and Hortense to hold a religious wedding. Arrighi was also present at the time, but Louis did not react, as if silence was acquiescence. Hortense plucked up the courage to ask Caroline where the religious ceremony was held, and Caroline said smoothly that it was Bonaparte's old residence on the Rue degli Victory.
It was not surprising to hold religious ceremonies at home. Priests could be invited to the home. Notre Dame Cathedral had not yet been renovated. It was not easy to find a complete church after the Revolution, but Napoleon raised objections.
Arrighi and his lieutenants searched the city and found that the church of Saint-Eustache was still intact, although it had been looted and for a time had been turned into a barn.
Precisely because it became a barn, it was only ransacked once before being protected by the National Guard, and the damage was not serious.
While the church was being repaired, Hortense was also preparing for a religious wedding. She didn't have the joy of choosing a wedding dress like other brides.
In fact, compared with cleaning up the house on Victory Street, there was more activity in building the church, but it was Napoleon Bonaparte's home. He had the right to occupy and control it. Josephine was just an accessory. She was almost kicked out with all her luggage. It was collected and placed at the door.
In many cases, Napoleon was easy to deal with. Talleyrand brought the paper he had written before. Even though it embarrassed him, he burned the article as if it did not exist and did not want others to know about it.
He asked Georgiana why she pretended not to see it, but she couldn't think of a suitable reason, so he figured it out on his own.
No one can persuade him about something he can't figure out.
The name of Victory Street was changed for him by the Directory. Originally it was called "Frog Croak", but that's how Georgiana remembered it.
Because it used to be a swamp, and because of the Toad Choir. After seeing so many castles, her favorites are still Hogwarts, which is brightly lit in the night, and the Black Lake, which needs a boat to cross. The castle is reflected like a mirror.
Compared with the majestic appearance of the castle, the interior of the castle is actually very old. There are rusty armors everywhere. Every Halloween, candles are lit in the armors, and rats and spiders come out of the masks when they are opened.
So Georgiana chose medieval armor as an ornament in the Vulcan Palace. Vulcan himself was good at forging, whether it was Apollo's golden bow or Achilles' shield.
After determining the general style, Georgiana didn't care about the decoration. If she really cared about decoration that much, she would be like the other women who were placed near Victory Street.
Simplicity is indeed a kind of beauty sometimes. After seeing too much Baroque, I feel dazzled. The business of this hotel used to be very good. Some people stay in hotels for the novelty, while others are used to it. Austria also has territory in Italy. People who come to Paris stay in this hotel as if they are back home.
If she still lived in a burrow like Molly's, she would have put fat armchairs in the room to make everything cozy.
She would knit and chatter away, even though the people sitting on the couch reading the newspaper paid no attention to her.
It feels bad to be ignored, but at least no one is deliberately trying to harm you. What else is there in you that deserves others to spend so much time and effort to do evil?
For a time, Georgiana received half a million francs a month for living expenses, which was ten times higher than Murat's monthly salary.
When she came to this world, she only had a red dress and nothing else. Now she seems to have a lot, but all of this will come to an end with the fall of Napoleon, just like the Marquis de Choiseul who was unparalleled in the old court. , having become an exile, his residence now belonged to Chapthar, even though he had once owned the house.
"Grassiness", like dueling, is all about gaining favor, but it also makes her a target, covered with arrows like Saint Sebastian.
Aristotle said that generosity is a kind of moderation, and both giving and giving should be done in moderation. Dionysus, the god of wine, encouraged drinking and participated in many revelries, but also established the rules that all decent ancient Greeks were expected to follow.
Only gods can enjoy pure wine, while mortals need to mix it with water.
She did not explain Napoleon's behavior of drinking wine mixed with water. Moderation is good for physical and mental health.
Britain also has a Mediterranean fleet. No matter what happens in Italy, Addington should not get involved. He has not even figured out his own affairs.
Public knowledge cannot bring luck. In the era of Columbus and Magellan, great geographical discoveries were often accompanied by gold and spices, and explorers returned home like triumphant generals. By the time of Bougainville, traveling around the world seemed like a trip along the coast of France.
Originally, Addington supported the Louisiana Purchase for the benefit of domestic industrialists, but now the polarity has reversed.
Queen Anne's day did not push for the bill to continue enclosures, but instead allowed the skinny lambs and calves on existing enclosures to grow fat and strong. Assuming that the total output value cannot be increased by expanding the territory, the output per unit of land can only be increased within the existing cotton belt.
So what happened to the 1 million francs that Addington mentioned to the boss of Barings Bank in Richmond Park?
She was like a mascot throughout this trip to Belgium, and she didn’t meet many people when she spoke, but sometimes it might be better not to say anything than to say the wrong thing. After all, you can eat food indiscriminately, and it will only cause diarrhea. If you say the wrong thing, you can't take it back.
If Malta does not withdraw its troops, the French will not continue to withdraw their troops from Italy. Naples and Rome seem to have withdrawn some, and the Archduke of Parma died surrounded by French troops.
Is this like a place to play and relax? It really is, just don't think about it.
Georgiana never inquired about Bonaparte's whereabouts, and there was no need to pretend that she didn't care if she didn't know.
There is no place called a cold palace in this world. If the emperor doesn't come, it will be a cold palace.
The concubines would either find something to entertain themselves, or they would do something else, such as going to the imperial garden to try their luck, but maybe the emperor would not meet him, and he would encounter the eunuch hanging from a tree first.
In fact, Constantinople fell, as well as Vienna.
What really concerned her was that no matter how much people at the racing circuit booed Justinian, he still only had one queen, Theodora, and no concubines or lovers.
So did Theodora really care about that purple robe to say that famous line to Justinian?
With a woman's intuition, she felt that it was not the case. There were only a few people like Charles II who could continue to be monarchs after returning from exile. What's more, no matter how much gold, silver and jewelry the "landless king" took with him when he left, they would all be consumed. .
Husband and wife are like birds in the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster strikes.
No matter how beautifully the songbird sings, it cannot deviate from its instinctive choice.
Georgiana walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, took out a cigarette, and looked at the sculpture of Artemis in the yard.
She knew the smoke wasn't real, but it did bring her peace.
It's been so long since she returned to Paris, why hasn't the "knight" who sent the disappearing cabinet to London come back yet?
In fact, it would be better if he left.
She threw the cigarette butt on the ground and stamped it out. She looked back to see if there were any tables, chairs or benches left in the hotel. Otherwise, how long would it take to buy a new table?
