Harry Potter Morning Light

There was no one in the Louvre in the evening, the corridors were empty, and only the footsteps of Georgiana and Bougainville could be heard.

On the way they passed a portrait of Cardinal Richelieu.

In the palace secrets that Georgiana saw after coming to this world, Richelieu once served as Louis XIII's foreign minister. He once frankly admitted that domestic weakness did not allow France to take any more decisive measures internationally. action.

At that time, during the period of independence of the United Provinces, most people's attention was attracted there, and few people paid attention to the relationship between Venice and the Holy Roman Empire.

That diplomatic incident probably went something like this. In 1612, Venice had a conflict with Archduke Ferdinand de Styria, the prince of the Habsburg family and the future heir to the German emperor. Venice had always used mercenaries. , they recruited a group of mercenaries in the Swiss cantons of Bern and Zurich, but they could only reach Venice through the Alpine passes controlled by the Grisons.

The small republic of Grisons, which does not belong to the Swiss cantonal confederation, had signed a treaty with Henry IV many years ago, guaranteeing that no army except the French army would be allowed to pass through unless Paris permitted it.

Louis XIII's mother was Marie de' Medici. At that time, the French Bourbon family was already burdened with huge debts. The Medici family's huge dowry not only helped the Bourbon family repay their debts, but also brought a large number of artists and Italian operas to France. Entered France.

Marie de' Medici is the true originator of the violin. At that time, the pattern was an important means of diplomatic performance, showing the strength and power of the country, and it was also a comprehensive reflection of the strength of the royal family. It cost a lot to hold an opera, and the form of the opera was also becoming more and more popular. Complex, integrating composers, performers, musicians and other art forms.

After Henry IV was assassinated, she served as regent. After Louis XIII took office, he relied on Cardinal Richelieu, which led to tension between the two.

Mary was not only a son of Louis XIII. Her third son, the Duke of Orleans, launched a rebellion to support his mother in 1619, and the Duke of Guise also supported her with force. However, all this happened after that diplomatic incident.

She was crowned queen the day before Henry IV was assassinated, and Henry IV was assassinated the next day. Immediately afterwards, she expelled Henry IV's chief mistress Catherine from the court - the one who was obviously not a virgin, but made her The one for whom the sculptor carved the statue of Artemis.

Despite an unhappy marriage to Henry IV, they had many children, and Mary married one of her daughters to the Spanish Habsburgs, whereupon Louis XIII agreed to the request of his ally, the Venetian Republic, to have his mother Marie de' Medici was very unhappy.

Richelieu adopted a delaying tactic, and the Venetian ambassador to France kept making requests for passage. Richelieu sent the Count of La Rochefoucauld, the ancestor of the Duke of Lyoncourt, to Spain to use the Spanish Habu The House of Burgess put pressure on the Habsburgs in Vienna. The Venetians believed that the key to solving the problem was not in Paris, but in Madrid, so they asked Spain to mediate.

Richelieu expressed unconcealable disappointment and anger at the behavior of the Venetians. He summoned the Venetian ambassadors and asked them, "Whenever you have trouble with Italy in the future, will you also go to the King of Spain? This is unheard of. It’s so disrespectful, could people have expected this kind of behavior in your republic before?”

Then Richelieu said, "Your Majesty is indeed cowardly at present, but he is not at the end of his rope. It will not take long for the Kingdom of France to regain its former vitality and make the surrounding kingdoms fearful."

Louis XVI dug a small storage room in the Tuileries Palace and placed an iron cabinet in it. When the cabinet door was opened, in addition to the well-known documents, there was also a letter clearly stating that Delaporte had sent Talleyrand to A letter was forwarded to Louis XVI.

He felt that the King would give "us" a personal advisory position, Lafayette the War Ministry, Barnaveux the Ministry of Justice and the Interior, the Foreign Office to Talleyrand, the Treasury to "the younger brother," and the Navy to " Big Brother".

That day in Compiègne, I don't know how Talleyrand "brought it together". Originally, Fouche seemed to be defeated. If he had been completely deprived of power, he would be expelled from Paris and go to a certain place in the provinces. A place to "retire" instead of wandering around the Tuileries with the kids.

His presence here proves that he will come back, not to mention that the Louvre and the Tuileries are connected.

At first, Georgiana planned to find Fouche, intending to give him some "control". Excessive power of the secret police would cause disaster. In the past two days, she was suspected by Bonaparte one after another, which was all caused by the supervisor's report.

That person could choose not to say that the relationship between Grassini and the violinist was told to Napoleon by Fouché himself. What happened to Georgiana and Julian Houvral? It was just a pinch on the cheek, as exaggerated as Grassini?

Maybe someone was sending a message that Georgiana's life or death was in their hands, so she was at their mercy, and they told her to say whatever she wanted in front of Napoleon.

So if she doesn't want to be manipulated, it's best to do something at this time. Severus used to be in the intelligence organization. Although he didn't say anything, she knew one thing. The police's stop-search power was limited. Unless there was an emergency, the intelligence department was under the jurisdiction of the Security Bureau. This was to deal with World War I, established in 1909, under the War Department. Sir Denning divided the powers of the Security Service in 1963. The Security Service can rely on technology and resources to conduct initial investigations. However, once there is the possibility of arrest, they can only hand over the intelligence to the police, who will make the arrest. Ser Denning doesn't just abandon his wife.

Since banks cannot repossess mortgaged properties, they will be cautious when lending money. It will not be like the U.S. real estate market where anyone can get a loan to buy a house.

It was difficult for Jacob to get a loan to start a business. He confidently opened the bakery in Brooklyn during the Great Depression. Everyone was queuing up to receive relief food. Who would buy his bread?

In short, she could put a "collar" on Fouche, but what Bougainville said just now made Georgiana realize that Fouche was no longer a problem. He was still a police chief, and he would be useless once military control was imposed.

As Genevieve said, he has become more powerful, and it is Napoleon who really needs to be restricted.

He needs to be stopped, no matter who it is, even the British.

Just as she was spinning around, she saw a painting appear on the wall.

This painting looks like a child's graffiti, as if it shouldn't be on the wall of the Louvre.

It is called "Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte". Tourists gathered in the sun and rested by the river. Some were walking, some were fishing, and some were overlooking the scenery.

She followed their gaze and saw a book on the table called "Les Misérables."

"It seems he has gone back." Bougainville said. "Should we go to his house?"

"No, let's go back." Georgiana said coldly, turned around and left the palace filled with robbers' trophies.
