Harry Potter Morning Light

Darwin once said: All male four-legged animals have a kind of jealousy, and many of them also specialize in producing sharp weapons and using them to compete with their opponents.

Lion-foot bathtubs are not uncommon in noble homes, but they are not in the Vatican Museum. Joseph looked at the lion-foot bathtub in front of him, a little confused where it came from, and why he stood in front of it.

He blinked, and when he took a closer look, the bathtub was no longer a bathtub, but something like a stone trough.

The Christmas tree is a custom north of the Alps in the central mountain range of Europe. It is an evergreen tree that can remain green in the cold winter. At first, Catholicism always believed that this was a custom that belonged only to Protestantism, and it was not accepted until after 1900 AD. This symbolizes the tree of Christmas. It wasn't until Pope John Paul II decided to have the Christmas tree next to the manger in St. Peter's Square at Christmas time.

Protestant families will place a tree in the living room for decoration, and Italians have different styles of "PRESEPPE" for Christmas.

PRESEPPE has big and small, the most important ones are the Holy Child, the Virgin Mary and Joseph, in addition to the straw, the angel of good news, the bull and donkey, the three oriental sages and the oriental star, no matter what kind Material, manger is an indispensable role in the scene.

Unlike stags, male horses have sharp horns for mating duels, but they still fight with their hooves.

In many savage tribes, people don't know what ownership is, so they don't feel jealous.

When people understand what ownership is, they will have possessive desires, like a Christmas gift in a manger, even two brothers who have a good relationship have to have two copies, if one has it, the other doesn’t, and the one that doesn’t has it. There will be jealousy, like Cain and Abel, Cain was jealous of Abel's favor with God and killed his brother.

In one corner of the living room, a woman is playing Greensleeves on a harp, a ballad said to have been written by Henry VIII.

This man, who was quite violent in the legend, really fell in love with a folk girl who was dressed in green. One day in the suburbs, the sun was shining brightly. He is handsome and mighty on a horse. She has long golden hair, and the sun shines on her fluttering green sleeves, making her beautiful. Just a chance to meet each other, they have each other's shadow in their eyes.

This story is very touching, but it is a pity that Henry VIII was not a good lover. Divorce was very difficult in the Middle Ages. Monogamy and never divorce are also engraved in the British Marriage and Family Law.

A divorced Catholic couple couldn't even go to communion. Divorce was forbidden by church rules, and neither could kings. At that time, Henry VIII was madly infatuated with Anne Boleyn and pursued her. But in Catherine's nephew, the Holy Roman Emperor Under the pressure of Charles V, Pope Clement VII refused to approve the lawsuit of nullity of marriage for six consecutive years. Finally, Henry VIII announced his separation from the Holy See, and finally succeeded in divorcing Catherine of Aragon.

Anne Boleyn's queen was bigger than her predecessor, Catherine. She was served by more than 250 full-time servants, and 60 noble maids accompanied her. Anne bought many extravagant gowns, jewelry, feather fans, carriages, furniture, etc., and also redecorated several palaces to suit her taste.

But these are nothing compared to the king's transfer of love to other women.

Eleven days after Anne Boleyn was beheaded, Henry VIII married Jane Seymour for his third wedding.

Given the difficulty of divorce, killing the wife was a quick and easy solution, as many lords did in the Middle Ages.

Anne Boleyn was accused of adultery by the king as if the king hadn't committed adultery himself.

Mary, the daughter of Henry VIII and Queen Catherine, was forced to be Anne's daughter Elizabeth's maid under Anne's control, and prompted the Parliament to pass a "Succession Act", which vested all the succession rights to the throne to Anne's children .

Anne lowered Mary's status and tortured her mentally. She also deducted Princess Mary's material treatment as the eldest daughter of the king. Her clothing and money were even worse than royal servants.

Such encounters are extremely painful for any adolescent girl.

In order to maintain her dignity, Mary refused to recognize the "Succession Act", even in her humble letter to Henry VIII, she insisted on signing "Princess Mary". Henry VIII was very annoyed by his eldest daughter's uncooperative attitude. The sweetheart of the past has now become his sworn enemy. Instigated by Anne Boleyn, he unceremoniously began to plan how to execute Princess Mary.

When Mary became seriously ill in panic, Queen Anne, as a stepmother, even ordered doctors not to treat Princess Mary's illness, and no one was allowed to visit her.

Mary survived the pain and hardship, and later became "Bloody Mary".

She was an extremely devout Catholic, and after she ascended the throne, she restored Roman Catholicism in England to replace the English Protestantism advocated by her father Henry VIII. For this she ordered about 300 protesters to be burned.

But after Mary I died, her religious policies were reversed by her successor, Elizabeth I, the daughter of King Henry VIII and his second wife Anne Boleyn, and half-sister of Bloody Mary.

Not all sisters can live in harmony. Since her parents were married according to Protestant rules, the Catholic Church considered her an illegitimate daughter. Elizabeth was designated as heir to the throne at birth, and her half-sister Mary became her attendant.

Anne Boleyn was sentenced to death for treason and Elizabeth was declared illegitimate, changing from "Princess Elizabeth" to "Miss Elizabeth Tudor".

Sister Mary did not treat Elizabeth well when she was a child, at least as a girl. When Henry VIII and his third queen Jane Seymour gave birth to a boy Edward, Elizabeth and Mary both became Edward's maids.

Both princesses lost their inheritance rights and became maidservants. It's a miracle they didn't find a way to suffocate their infant brother.

They stood beside Edward's cradle, as Isis and Nephthys stood at the ends of the coffin.

The child was accompanied by death from birth, and her mother refused to sleep with the king before marriage. Even though the plague spread in London at that time, the king married her, but she was not officially crowned.

In the days of Anne Boleyn, the social activity and extravagance of the queen's palace were at their peak, but Jane Seymour replaced the old pleasures with strict regulations.

In politics, Jane Seymour was very conservative. The only recorded involvement of her in politics is in 1536, when she interceded with the king for the people attending the Prayer of Mercy. Henry is said to have rejected her and reminded Jane Seymour of the fate of her "nosy" predecessor, Anne Boleyn.

Jane Seymour did not read many books, at least not as learned as Anne Boleyn, but she had a deep affection for Queen Catherine of Aragon, so she has been working hard to restore Henry and Catherine of Aragon. The status of the daughter Mary Tudor in the court and the right of succession to the throne.

Before her death, she also wanted to bring back to court Elizabeth, the daughter of Anne Boleyn, whom she had invited to Edward's christening.

Jane Seymour's labor lasted two days and three nights, and she died shortly afterwards.

At that time there was such a nursery rhyme:

There was joy and laughter at the baby's baptism.

And the cold body of poor Queen Jane lay in the dirt.

The day resounded with bells, songs, and mourning all at once.

Princess Elizabeth left weeping.

The mourner at the funeral was her stepdaughter Mary Tudor.

"Your father always gets one thing wrong," said the woman who played the harp in the living room. "Sometimes he's there and he's not, and I don't really care if he makes a lot of money."

Joseph walked stiffly to another room, opened the doorknob with his hand, and a man in a light gray vest was facing him with his back.

He was cutting the fabric with scissors, and he was so meticulous that he didn't notice the people behind him, and he forgot that it was Christmas.

Many people think that the snow on Christmas Day is beautiful, but Joseph thinks it is very cold when it snows.

After 400 years of development, divorce is not as cumbersome as it was in the Middle Ages. It is cumbersome to apply to the secular court for formal divorce. Informal divorce and separation are the easiest way. Although this method is simple and effective, it is not recognized by the church and is also invalid.

It wasn't until the nineteenth century that the British divorce system was slowly applied to the general public. Before that, the best way to get a divorce was to kill your spouse.

Wives poison their husbands, husbands strangle their wives, and pretend to commit suicide. The state of never-divorced marriage exists only in the fantasy world of some people.

A wife who is completely dependent on her husband financially will most likely lose her financial resources after divorce. This may be the reason why she did not divorce her father.

"No, that's not it," said the woman. "Your father is a good man, and we all love you."

"Enough." Joseph growled under his breath.

"Forgive your father, he is just an ordinary man," said the woman.

"He framed you," said Joseph.

"No, he didn't." The woman said after a moment of silence.

"So you betrayed him?" Joseph asked crying.

"No, I want to give you a complete family." The woman said, "Mom loves you the most."

Joseph covered his ears, he didn't want to hear any more.

Women always find people around them to develop extramarital affairs. Catherine Howard, the fifth wife of Henry VIII, had a dewy marriage with a musician before marriage. She told King Henry VIII, and Henry VIII was so tolerant that he forgave her After all, Catherine Howard was only 22 years old at the time, and after marriage she had an affair with Thomas Culpeper, the king's servant, and she was beheaded for adultery a year after the divorce.

Joseph didn't want to guess who the people around him were the object of his mother's cheating.

One cannot be sympathetic to such encounters without having experienced them firsthand.

Adultery is not a sin if a man is not possessive of a woman.

The prohibition of adultery by laws and customs is mainly derived from sympathy for men who are "victims". After all, men set the rules.

As a child, Joseph could take it for granted to hate his father, but now he finds it difficult for him to do so.

When Clement VII fled to Orvieto, Rome was experiencing the end, priests were disemboweled by soldiers on the street, and nuns were insulted. Compared with that "big picture", Henry VIII agreed Was it that hard to divorce Catherine of Aragon?

"As the Spanish proverb says, in this uncertain world there is neither truth nor lie, everything depends on the color of the lens through which we see the world."

Joseph heard a man say that he looked up automatically, only to find that the light was so bright that he couldn't keep his eyes open.

"What are you doing, Father?"

Joseph subconsciously raised his hand to cover the flashlight, and then he heard the crisp sound of the key hitting.

He was lying in a stone trough with many reliefs on it, which Lisa brought up from the ground.

After all, there is no bathtub in the Vatican Museum, but there are countless cultural relics from all over the world.

Joseph sat up with the help of the key manager. The cold water took away the heat from his body. He shivered and looked up at the ceiling.

In fact, he has never noticed that standing like a living person, what he sees is the last judgment, and if lying on his back like a dead person, what he sees is Genesis.

Because the chapel was pitch black, with only the light of the flashlight as a source of light, the masterpieces lost their color and looked less stunning.

"As he said, in this unpredictable world, there is neither truth nor lies, and everything depends on the color of the lens we use to see the world." He rolled his eyes and said, resisting the desire to vomit .

"What?" asked the keykeeper.

Joseph passed out.

The last thing he saw before he fell into a coma was the healthy young Son in the Last Judgment. He held the key in his hand, but was that the key to heaven, or the key to hell?
