Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2300 Infinity (middle)

Georgiana came to St. Lumodi Church almost on the same road as yesterday. This is almost the case in medieval cities. The city hall, church, and market facilities are all located in the city center, and even next to the city hall is a cloth business. location of the meeting.

   After getting off the bus, she first saw a tall bell tower, which is also the commanding height of Mechelen. There are at least 20 bells in it, and it is they that make pleasant music.

Each city has an iconic building. Florence's landmark building, the Loggia of the Mercenaries, is located next to the Piazza della Signoria. It was originally used for performances by members of the Medici family. It was used to station in Germany from 1376 to 1382. Mercenaries, so named mercenary loggia.

   That is to say, while the guild craftsmen from various regions were facing the scorching sun, waiting for the results of the discussions in the courtyard of the government affairs hall, those German mercenaries watched a play while enjoying the shade under the loggia. In the 16th century, when Florence reached its heyday, the mercenary loggia became increasingly beautiful, not only adding a lot of sculptures, but also becoming the place where the Florentine administrator was sworn in.

  Mechelen's bell tower was not repaired due to a lack of funds halfway through its repair, and it was hastily capped.

Her gaze quickly turned from the bell tower to the door of the church. The person who greeted her was a tall and thin old man. He was wearing a full bishop's robe, standing upright and looking very tough. He didn't look like an 80-year-old man. Behind him was fighting the entire clergy, but... she didn't see Bonaparte.

   "I knew it." She muttered in a low voice, then took her skirt and got out of the car with the help of Figel.

   Archduke Ferdinand and his wife rode in the same carriage and were assassinated together. She was thinking that it would be good to be separated.

   When she came to Archbishop Roqueello, she didn't know what to say for a moment.

   "Welcome," the archbishop said in French with a smile.

   "Nice to meet you." Georgiana smirked.

  If there is an Inquisition, these people will be present at the Inquisition.

   Her eyes swept across the clergy quickly, all of them were expressionless, or, in other words, kept solemn.

   "It's been hard work all the way." The Archbishop said politely.

   "It will get better in the future." Georgiana said, "When the road is repaired, it will be much easier to travel than it is now."

   "Like the Romans."

   A barely audible voice said in the crowd, and Georgiana did not carefully identify who said it, nor did she give any explanation. Just like Ron Weasley smashed her head twice with a pod, she thought nothing happened.

  The Archbishop took Georgiana into the church for a visit. It can be seen that it is a Gothic building, which also makes the tower without a spire look so abrupt.

The era of St. Lumodi's life happened to be the Carolingian dynasty. The legend of saints was very rich during the Merovingian dynasty. The saints of this period were not like the Roman rule of Bruges' St. Donatin, and even the Abbots and bishops can compile Acts, and the church is eager to include them in the ranks of saints, while "apostles" are relatively rare.

  The Frankish kingdom in the Merovingian period was in the initial stage of national development. As a former "barbarian", only a few senior monks were needed to meet the simple writing needs of the king and courtiers. By the time of Charlemagne, the increase in the number of provinces in the empire and the increase in correspondence led to the need for more trained personnel, which forced Charlemagne to require a series of measures to improve the schools of the court and the church, the organizers of these schools and education. They were the members of the Imperial Court of the Imperial Court gathered around the king.

The 8th century was the heyday of the Tang Dynasty. It was not only silk and spices that came to Western Europe along the Silk Road. The seminaries in this period were dominated by grammar, rhetoric and debate. At that time, the Byzantine Empire was still there. And the Academy of Athens.

After experiencing a series of natural and man-made disasters such as "The Whip of God" Attila, the Plague of Justinian, and the civil war, the Eastern Roman Empire was severely damaged. In the middle of the 7th century, Syria and Egypt became part of the Arab Empire. At this time, Byzantium The main enemies of the empire changed from Persians to Arabs, who had a strong army and a large navy.

But at this time, the Byzantines invented a secret weapon called "Greek fire" and used it to burn almost all the naval ships in Arabia. With this secret weapon, the Byzantine Empire, which was on the verge of collapse, regained sea power and came back to life. The ruler of the Roman Empire, Leo III, launched a campaign of iconoclasm within the empire.

  This movement not only destroyed the statues of the saints, but also confiscated the property and land of the church, forcing the priests to return to the secular world. There was a similar movement in the Netherlands, but it did not spread to the Church of St. Lumodi. The skeleton of St. Lumodi is still in the church, and the sculpture on the coffin is also good.

  Fortunately, the Crown of Thorns was hidden during the Great Revolution, if someone had a fever and threw it into the fire and burned it with Genevieve's bones...

The   French Revolution did indeed have extreme actions, which Father Gregoire has exposed and announced, and he is here today.

  Fortunately, he did not mention returning the materials taken from Leuven, or translating them into French. The alliance between the church and the kingship is not only divinely granted by the monarchy, but the church also participates in the control of the newly conquered territory with the emperor and the king, changing the people of the newly conquered land from the cultural and customs.

   In addition, they are also policy promoters. She has a deep understanding of the implementation of a sugar factory in Belgium this time. In addition to going to the market, farmers go to church. The United States also conducted a census in 1790. It took a few years for a population of less than 4 million. The population of France was 20 million, but it took less than a year to count. It only took priests to count the number of believers in their parishes. Adding or subtracting a few deaths and illnesses is basically the same.

Even the cadastre of the Middle Ages was compiled by the church. When the secular world did not have data to record the events at that time due to wars or other reasons, the church would usually find it, but in the history of the destruction of icons, there was not even the church. This period of time seemed to be shrouded in darkness, and only folk legends and myths could trace some clues.

At the same time, these materials kept in the church can also be tampered with or hidden. Regarding the original copy of the copy stored in the church library by the Udine Inquisition, Georgiana does not know how the Archbishop of Cambáceres obtained it, but since it was in Conbasere In the hands of the Archbishop of St. Andrews, then there will be none in the library of Paris, and people will not know that Michele's trial alarmed the Pope as much as Galileo's trial.

   Also in the riot of 1378, there was also a man named Michele di Lando, who succeeded Salvestro of the Medici as the new standard-bearer of justice, and persuaded the people of this uprising.

However, when the commotion was over, Michele was exiled. He was so devoted to his duties that he did not make his fellow citizens feel much gratitude. Just when Florence was busy with infighting, Louis of France drove his troops to Puglia. Attempt to occupy Tuscany.

   But luckily for the Florentines, Louis died, so the Florentines suddenly changed from worrying about their city-state being unsafe to buying back the city from Louis who was stationed in the hands of the Arezzo.

  After getting Arezzo, Florence held a grand celebration, like a big victory. Many families tried their best to compare with the country and show off their wealth. No one remembered the riots not long ago.

   This time, there was no large-scale riot, but hatred and jealousy against a family. Both the Florentine government and the bottom citizens wanted this family to be destroyed, but this family was not the Medici.

Then the patriarch of the family was exiled, he made a long journey to visit the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem, died of illness in Rhodes Island on his way back home, his body was transported back to Florence, and the people who had persecuted him were buried as grandly as possible, Although they had slandered him in every possible way while he was alive.

   In the purgatory written by Dante, as long as the living is still praying for the dead, then he still has hope and will not go to hell.

   She knew that Napoleon was finally buried in the Invalides, according to his will, on the banks of the Seine, among the French people. His coffin also went on a long journey back to Paris.

   She knew very well that he was dead, and the occupations that had contact with ghosts were somewhat different from the world of "normal people", such as wizards, psychics, fortune-tellers, etc., but he didn't believe in these god-given things.

Counting the time, she entered the Louvre to explore the full moon night after the summer solstice. It seems that this is her "A Midsummer Night's Dream". She also entered a magical world, but I don't know when she will Leave.
