Chapter 2213: The Battle of Flowers (One Hundred and Twenty Two)

   Chapter 2213 Flower War (One Hundred and Twenty Two)

   For pure-blooded wizards, Silent and Silent are not really difficult objects to deal with, because, as long as you kill Silent as the host, Silent will find the next host.

  This is different from the traditional Western theory of the soul. According to what the church says, people will be judged after death and either go to heaven or hell. Sometimes there are spirits like "guardian angels", which are also sent by God after going to heaven, such as a child's benevolent grandparents or something. Newt Scamander has "once" stripped obscurity from a Sudanese girl whose magical abilities were found to be a disease by Muggles, imprisoning and "treatment".

The Republic of Sudan was once a part of ancient Egypt. The ancient Egyptians believed that the body was the container of the soul. When the original "container" was no longer suitable, Voldemort created a new "container", using Harry Potter's blood and The skeleton of old Tom Riddle, illuminated by a blue goblet of fire throughout.

This is different from the "traditional", after accepting the final judgment, the righteous are resurrected, and the righteous who are resurrected use their own bodies. For this reason, Christianity practice burial, not cremation like Buddhism, while Venice uses fire to burn" When the corpses were placed on Plague Island, it was actually against the "rules".

   However, keeping those corpses, the Black Death may continue to spread, since God created human beings out of mud, why can’t he recreate it from mud mixed with ashes?

   "Godendhere"

   Many bizarre "stories" appeared on that small island, and it became an excellent horror film location. The vast majority of people are fine, but there is an American family who bought land on the island and built a house on it to live in. The daughter of the island owner was slashed in the face.

  Georgianna didn't know how badly she was hurt, but would the spirit on that island have the power to control the real thing, throwing chalk and water bombs at students like Peeves?

Peeves used to be more than a "prank". In 1876, he had a war with the administrator. He used a machete, a crossbow, a breech gun and a small cannon, and shot at random. The lives of the students were threatened. So the castle had to be evacuated for three days, and for this reason, the principal, Euplasia Moore, had to sign an agreement with Peeves to let him hand over his weapons and get more permissions, including the ability to swim in the boys' bathroom on the first floor, and to get A hat made for him by Lady Bonabeele.

Seriously, Georgiana didn't think much of it before, hats were worn in the Rococo era, but Rose Bertin was good at designing unusual fashions and exaggerated hairstyles, and she even managed to make a model of a ship become updo for ladies high bun.

   She and Marie Antoinette presented a new season every season, and she refused to design for any court lady until the fashion was released, which made her a lot of resentment.

She needs accessories such as tulle, feathers, flowers, and fruits to make a high bun. Georgiana's hair has never been long. Unless she is willing to wear a wig, there is no way for Ross Bertin to realize the design in her heart. of.

   She even used a hot air balloon as a hair accessory, which Georgiana swore would scare away anyone who saw her. Matilda bought a lot of lace, which can be used as material for veils and hats. Yes, she thought about making "fun" underwear, but this is very likely to be criticized and become the target of criticism articles.

   After all, drinking tea is degenerate these days. Revolutionaries advocate simplicity and frugality. During the Great Revolution, there were many articles criticizing the extravagance and corruption of the Wang family.

However, Rose Bertin is of great significance to Paris. She not only established the leading position of Paris in the fashion industry and made France the benchmark of the international fashion industry, but also established the system of releasing new fashion every quarter, such as Voss, Poiret, Chanel, etc. will be her heirs.

   To change France's reliance on British high-count yarn, reduce child labor, and the impact of tariffs, it is necessary to "de-weaponize" high-count yarn, that is, change from women's clothing.

  For example, the best selling fabric in the old days was silk, and there were cumbersome and exaggerated decorations. By 1792, both Rose Bertin and her thirty seamstresses had become very poor, and she was forced to emigrate overseas. Because the times have changed, no one has patronized her business anymore, and while in exile, she has repaid her debts from those aristocratic creditors who were also in exile.

  She has become the person everyone hates, she is a disaster, but she is still passionate about this cause.

Bertin reminded Georgiana of Miranda, a woman called "the devil" by the Venetian retro costume maker Nicholas, who "ruled" New York, and the entire city, in a skyscraper, wearing clothes from various luxury brands. American fashion.

In the past, Bertin also opened a clothing store in Rue Saint-Honoré. The store also had a very exotic name called "The Great Khan's Residence". At that time, she was called "The Minister of Fashion". Every day there are many People, whether they are customers or people who want to learn art, visit.

   Now she has lost the shop, leaving only the residence in Rue Richelieu.

   If it was in the past, with Marie Antoinette's favor on her, it should be easy to get that shop back.

  Georgiana prefers Bertin to be a fashion editor, but none of them speak their minds, just "chatting" while doing their hair, just like all "normal girls" should have a daily routine.

  The friendship of the girls is sometimes built on the basis of a common enemy. Neither Farron nor Rose hate Madame Dubarry more, and Georgiana also follows her words.

How should I put it, Madame Dubarry is the daughter of a tailor. If it is usually ordered by Bertin, but if you pay attention, many portraits of Madame Dubarry are wearing hats, so wearing a hat does not require the exaggeration of Bertin's designs. Hair and headwear, right?

   Madame du Barry used to earn some income to support herself, peddling trinkets on the dingy streets of Paris, and working as a hairdresser's assistant. Her long, thick blond curls didn't require a "layman" to take care of.

  Imagine what it would be like to keep two cats in a cabinet.

   Even with a splendid and spacious house, a "respectable person" should not work in her own home, unless she is in the occupation that Mrs. Dubarry once held. There is no Dumas yet, and Bertin's meaning probably refers to a profession similar to that of La Traviata written by Dumas.

  Georgianna is very sympathetic to those women who are forced to do that because of life. This is very different from a man like Dumas. He sympathizes with La Traviata.

   But what if La Traviata was not infected with tuberculosis, which is considered a "beautiful way to die", but syphilis?

   However, Georgiana has no right to speak of others. She is also an intervenor in other people's marriages. This trip was supposed to be Josephine.

  Georgianna and Josephine are not the same type at all, Josephine is like a rose, and she can play the harp. But Georgiana can ride horses, and England is rich in good horses, which Josephine from Creole can't.

  Josephine had a special tailor. Bertin, who was originally moldy in his apartment in Rue Richelieu, was found by the British and introduced to Georgiana, just like the old aristocrats re-entering the French court and politics.

Charles Dickens' A Tale of Two Cities was written against the backdrop of the French Revolution, and as I said at the beginning, it was the best of times, it was the worst of times; it was the year of wisdom, it was the year of folly ; it was the time of faith, it was the time of doubt; it was the season of light, it was the season of darkness; it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair; we had everything, we had nothing; we were all heading straight for heaven , we are all in the other direction.

  Why didn't Dickens just use hell?

   In fact, there may be another worse place, as Machiavelli said, a person is not even qualified to go to hell, and can only wander in "limbo" with the souls of saints and babies.

Could this be what    Dickens meant? Or the identification he was referring to? Otherwise what's worse than hell?

  Georgianna suddenly turned her head and looked in one direction.

   "What's the matter, ma'am?" asked Bertin, who was fixing the lace in her hair.

   "Nothing," she said blankly, continuing to look in the mirror.

  In the mirror, in addition to the figures of her and Bertin, there was also a cabinet, which left a shadow in the sun. Just now, she saw a figure emerge from the shadow and then disappeared.

   "What's in that cabinet?" asked Georgiana.

   "Some documents," Bertin said.

   "Take them out," said Georgiana.

   Bertin asked a seamstress to fetch it, then leaned over to Georgiana and whispered.

   "When those people wanted to send me to the gallows, I told them, these girls are real 'sans culottes', do you want them to wear men's clothes like you?"

  ‘The premise is to help you pay off the debt above? Yeah? ' Georgiana thought with a sneer, but said nothing.

   "You need help." Bertin squeezed Georgiana's shoulder and said, "I think you heard the legend about your place."

   "Josephine is kind, she helped me redecorate." She said blankly.

   "You believe what you say?" Bertin asked.

  Georgianna did not answer.

   Then Bertin didn't go on, she put the papers on the dresser in front of Georgiana.

   "Civilized ways don't always work," Bertin whispered, and went on to fix Georgiana's hair. "Sometimes I wish those girls were really sans-culottes."
