Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 466 Rainbow Kaleidoscope

  The opening banquet, Halloween and Easter banquets are grand banquets that must be prepared at Hogwarts every year. Most people choose to leave school at Christmas, and there will be much less food to prepare at that time.

  Festivals are particularly difficult for some people, because he is alone. Although Harry has family, he never wants to go back to Petunia’s house for the holidays. Every year, Dudley’s birthday gifts piled up, and Harry didn’t even have a cake.

  It’s different to stay at school. His friends are everywhere. He can feel that others care about him. He still has gifts to receive during his injury and hospitalization. This kind of warmth is not felt at Dursley’s.

  Most of the people went back at Christmas, he was alone in school, and Ron’s role appeared at this time.

When Harry was a freshman, Arthur and Molly went to Romania to visit Charlie on Christmas Day. Ron had to stay at school. He was very greedy and liked to eat delicious food. Hogwarts was heaven for him because it was everywhere. delicious food.

For the cook, it is a satisfaction to see the person eating so delicious, but his sister-in-law Furong thinks the Hogwarts dishes are too greasy, and now it’s her turn to cook, Pomona While filling the sausage, Bill could not bear her light taste.

  The taste of revenge is so wonderful, even if you can’t see it, Pomona feels comfortable in her mind.

When Bill disliked that Furong’s dishes were not delicious, she would definitely understand Pomona’s mood, but she was rejected for working hard. Although the two of them were similar, the first impression was so bad, not to mention that Furong is that kind of self. The people at the center, she likes to attract everyone's attention. Pomona has been hiding for so many years and is used to being invisible. They are people living in different worlds, and it is estimated that it will be difficult for them to be friends in this life.

  In Muggle soap operas, housewives can often be seen chatting on the phone, which makes it hard to believe how they have so much to say.

  After they become housewives, they will know that Fleur, the prom queen of the Triwizard Tournament, is not like Pomona. Cleaning the castle, cooking, and chatting can alleviate the pressure. Now Pomona wants to find someone to chat with.

"Good morning."

  Pomona looked up at the door of the kitchen. A beautiful young man was smiling at her politely.

He is dressed very decently, even walking in Muggle London will not look weird, chestnut hair, brown eyes, blue black coat, iron gray vest, wearing short boots on his feet, he looks very energetic. Carrying a pink paper box in his hand.

   "Good morning." Pomona stopped her work. "Who are you, young man?"

"My name is Iris. I am now working as secretary and secretary for the organization." He put the pink paper box on the cooking table. "I just passed by Holland Park. There is a nice cake shop there. I heard that Mrs. I really like sweets, I hope you like it."

Pomona had heard of this young man. His father was the minister of Madame Zabini’s skirt. He dedicated everything he had to her, but he only gave his own son and wife a villa. That's too much money.

  Iris does not intend to inherit his father’s surname, and the name Iris is more suitable for girls. Maybe his mother, like Molly, hopes that his son can be a girl.

  I am used to seeing a "straight steel man" like Severus, and suddenly seeing a man with good taste, Pomona can't help but mutter.

  Is Iris **** or straight?

   "Did you discover the secret of the Astonian blood curse?" Pomona asked.

  Iris smiled and said nothing.

  He looked away from Pomona, looked at Kensington Palace outside the window, and said after a moment.

"Before George III, Kensington Palace had always been the residence of the royal family. Later, because of witchcraft in the palace, Buckingham Palace was bought to live in Queen Charlotte and his children. The king himself lived in Kensington Palace. Here, in 1782, the Muggle Prime Minister Lord North secretly summoned Portius Nazibo, the Minister of Magic, to find out if he could help George III to heal a mental problem. Does Madam know about this?"

George III is a well-known figure in British history. Historians’ evaluation of George III is that his life is "kaleidoscope-like and changeable." During his administration, after the war with France and Napoleon after the Great Revolution, Britain jumped to the top The leading power in the world.

Britain's defeat of France in the Seven Years' War allowed Britain to overwhelm other countries and successfully dominate North America and India. However, with Britain's defeat in the American War of Independence, George III lost a large number of colonies in the Americas, and the independence of these colonies eventually contributed to the founding of the United States. .

He is an upright king like Shakespeare's King Lear. Other kings have mistresses, but he does not, and the first thing he does after he takes the throne is to rectify the notorious arrogance and luxury in his grandfather's court. Few kings are like him. Responsible to the subjects.

  He did not read well, but he worked hard to fulfill the duties of the king. It was also during his reign that Britain completed the constitutional monarchy.

  Many people wrote books to analyze why the constitutional monarchy survived in Britain but France ended in failure. The final conclusion is that it is directly related to the integrity of George III.

  Wu Zetian’s husband, Li Zhi, had a serious headache like George III. Many doctors could not cure it. Only one person named Ming Chongyan could be optimistic about the emperor’s illness. It is said that this person is a wizard.

  The court is often closely related to witchcraft. George III announced that he had gone mad in 1810. It was caused by the death of Princess Emily, not 1782 as Iris just said.

During the tenure of George III, many prime ministers were changed, and the prime minister and his cabinet were often not long-lived without the king’s full trust. However, if the prime minister did not get the respect and support of the parliament, he would not be able to gain a foothold. Lord North was the king during his childhood. Playmates, and have been supported by the majority in the parliament for 10 years.

He is an excellent speaker and an excellent peace prime minister. In order to appease the American colonists, he canceled most of the taxes levied on the Americas and left the tea tax alone. As a result, the Boston Tea Incident broke out. Opposing the tea tax to pour the tea from the tea merchant ships anchored in Boston Harbor into the sea, the War of Independence started, but he was dismissed by a motion of no confidence because he believed that the news of witchcraft had been leaked.

King George III had a magnificent life, but in his later years he was tortured into a human form by illness. His health has always been good, except for the serious illness in 1765, which left the root of the disease and relapsed many times. By 1788, he was in Windsor. When the castle was eating, he suddenly beat the prince and tried to hit the prince's head against the wall. During this period, he muttered to himself, foamed his mouth, and had bloodshot eyes, just as if he had been hit by witchcraft.

The quack doctors treated the king in cruel ways and treated the mentally ill. Later, he was tortured into an inhuman form. When he changed from intermittent psychosis to permanent insanity in 1811, he was locked up in Windsor Castle in a room. He was staggering around in the isolated house. At that time, he was already blinded by cataracts. The sunlight was meaningless to him. Only the Garter medal on his chest reminded the world that this sickly old man was the King of England.

   "It sounds like you know a lot, Iris."

"I like reading, especially in other people’s diaries and private letters. I often find some unknown secrets. George III tried to establish diplomatic relations with Emperor Qianlong of China, but Qianlong gave George III an imperial decree, that letter. It’s on display at the British Museum now, does Madam want to go see it?"

The Manchu “Kang and Qian dynasty” in the records of the British diplomatic mission was like this: “Whether it was in Zhoushan or the three days upstream to the capital of the Baihe River, there was no evidence of the richness of the people and the prosperity of the countryside. They are all mud-walled bungalows and thatched roofs. In fact, everything you can see is nothing but a picture of poverty and backwardness."

Poverty, shocking poverty, the so-called prosperity is only touted. In contrast, the ruling class's luxury, the bureaucracy is bloated, a large number of Baqizi brothers get nothing, a lot of social resources are wasted, words imprisoned ideas, and a lot of excellent culture is destroyed , Military technology has stagnated and even started to regress, the independent personality of literati officials has been polished, and there is no arrogance at all except for the kowtow.

  When Qianlong was engaged in literary prison, Washington had led the Americans to win the War of Independence.

  While Qianlong traveled to the south of the Yangtze River, King George III was using his own private funds to vigorously support academic institutions such as the Royal Academy of Art and Imperial University to restore his vitality after the war with France.

  Pomona doesn't like Manchu at all. Even though the cheongsam is very feminine when worn on her body, she didn't wear it when she went to the city hall exchange meeting.

  She also has no interest in the looted artworks exhibited in the British Museum. They are evidence of imperialist robbery. Some people should be humiliated by this, not complacent.

   "I heard from your husband that you want to go to the museum today. I hope that my knowledge is enough to be your company." Seeing that Pomona kept silent, Iris suddenly said.

   "It's inappropriate for me to stay here now, right?" Pomona asked.

   "Mr. just doesn't want you to be bored. The topics they will discuss later may make you feel bored."

  Pomona stopped saying one more word, and went back to the cloakroom to change clothes.

   Isn’t she a woman? So some men’s topics are not suitable for discussion.
