Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 1464 "All Betrayed"

When Georgiana returned to her office in the Old Town Castle, she was informed by Phyllis at the door that a guest had arrived.

Then she saw the back of Lucien Bonaparte.

She let Phyllis leave and returned to the office by herself, where Lucien was smoking a cigar.

"Why are you here?" asked Georgiana.

Lucian did not answer her question.

"I helped him to falsify his campaign." Lucien said, "It was also during the coup d'etat. My understanding at the time was that extraordinary times required extraordinary means, and sometimes dirty methods were needed to win. Napoleon was a very hard-hearted person, because Only in this way can he keep calm. The fate of a battle is only a moment, a thought. If the critical moment comes to ignite the spiritual spark, the smallest reserve team can win. In Marengo, he actually won by a fluke, if it wasn't for Germany Even if Se had appeared to save him, he would have been driven into the Po River long ago."

"He's a liar." Georgiana said blankly, "I was cheated by him."

"Aren't you angry?" Lucien said.

"Why are you here?" Georgiana asked again.

"Do you know the Marseillaise?" Lucien sang. "Forward, sons and daughters of the Fatherland, rise up, a glorious day awaits you! Look at us the tyrant is raising the blood-stained flag, the blood-stained flag Do you hear? Fierce soldiers are howling on our land, and they rush to you and kill your wife and son. What kind of plans are these gangs of traitors and kings up to? Who are these damned shackles for? Wear it? Who are you going to wear it for? French people, wear it for us! The shame and indignation is outrageous! It is tolerable or unbearable. He wants to push mankind back to the slave age! He wants to restore slavery! He wants to push us back to the slave age !"

Lucian suddenly roared with excitement.

"I hardly recognize him. I'm going to be envoy to Rome. Will you come with me?"

"I'm not going to Rome with you," said Georgiana, "but I'm going back to England."

"Long live, king." Lucien smiled sarcastically, "I wish him a good time with those idiots."

"I'm a fool." Georgiana said with a wry smile. "I was fooled too."

"He never wastes time on women, you are different." Lucian said in a cloud of mist, "I thought you could replace Josephine."

"That's your wishful thinking." She smiled. "I do a lot of wishful thinking."

"He will regret it." Lucien said gloomily.

"When he is lucky, he doesn't feel it." Georgiana sat down on the chair opposite Lucien. "The Bible says that the prodigal will only turn back when he is poor."

"You don't hate him?"

"Hate is an emotion, I can't feel anything anymore." Georgiana said relaxedly, "From now on, he is just a passerby to me."

Lucien took another puff of cigarette, "We have read your letter..."

"I don't care if you accept those conditions." Georgiana said lazily, "Since he wants to be a ruthless leader, he can do whatever he wants."

"There are often famines in Poland, and sometimes people cannibalize people." Lucien said, "This rumor was known by Dusan Louverture for some reason. He treated the Polish prisoners in a cruel way. He thought they were all cannibals." Later, we used the same method to treat the captives, and gradually the methods became more and more cruel. Later, Dusan released the Polish captives, but he was still cruel to other whites."

"How much is the public debt now?" asked Georgiana.

"I'm too lazy to read." Lucian said wearily, "The only good thing he has left is that he didn't divorce Josephine."

Sooner or later, for the greater good, like marrying an Austrian princess or something.

Georgiana said nothing.

She did something wrong, is it too late to turn around now?
"Don't you ask?" Lucian asked.

"what?"

"Why didn't he divorce Josephine."

"He told me."

"What did he tell you?"

"He can't give up the woman who treated him well just because he has become great."

Lucian laughed.

"I was cheated again?" Georgiana said helplessly.

"You are smarter than Baolin, and you know that he will not divorce Josephine for the sake of the child." Lucian said coldly, "His temper is just like this, it is scary when he is angry, and he will be fine when he calms down. Everyone, he and Josephine are still friends."

She probably understood.

"You call this an advantage?"

"He has always been good to his old friends, you should know that." Lucien said.

"I heard that he arranged the Seju family very well."

"If Rochambeau loses the battle, what are you going to do with him?"

"Same as Menuu."

"He wants to restore his father's glory."

"In this way?" Georgiana laughed again. "It would be disgraceful for him to win."

"Tell me, what should I do?"

"You still want to help him?"

"I think there is hope," Lucien said.

"I'm not in the mood," said Georgiana icily. "I'm a fool."

"Even if it's not for him, you should help those soldiers." Lucian said, "Did you hear them begging for help?"

Georgiana thought of the Raft of the Medusa.

Compared with the restored nobleman who abandoned his soldiers and escaped alone, who is more inhumane, the commander who forces people to become wild beasts in the jungle?
"He once told me that slaves were needed to build roads." Georgiana said coldly.

"You support slavery too?"

"Improving their treatment will not be achieved overnight, at least they can get the same salary as white people in labor camps." Georgiana said mercilessly, "Killing them will be punished as murder, and the murderer will pay a heavy price. Can't pay 114 shillings and close the case."

"Toussaint Louverture's condition was to recruit black officers into the French army. He thought that if these officers were placed in the French army, the French army would be able to obey his orders." Lucien said, "He is also a fighter." A careerist under the banner of liberty."

"Give him a high-ranking official." Georgiana smiled sarcastically.

"Saint Domingo may become a province of France, but the senior official will not be Toussaint Louverture." Lucien stood up. "It's too early to give up on him now. How about we go back to Paris?"

"I have other business here, and there is no order for me to go back."

"Take it as if you are helping me, the French Republic." Lucien said, "The fruits of the revolution cannot be stolen."

"You're talking about your brother."

Lucien was expressionless.

"You know what? I have discovered something." Georgiana stood up. "I have no official position, and I don't need anyone to order me to go there."

"Thank you, Georgiana."

"It's too early to say thanks now, let's talk about it when things are done." Georgiana went to the door and said to Phyllis, "You go and invite Lord Petty and Lord Bloom, we are leaving for Paris. "

When Phyllis was gone, Georgiana looked at Lucien, "Do you think she will inform?"

Lucien sneered, "If he kills me, even my mother won't want him anymore. Besides, I'm not for the Republic. I hope he won't become the kind of person he hated the most."

"What kind of person?"

"In Jefferson's words, all kings are idiots, these beasts have no brains and strength, feed them nutritious food, keep them well fed, give them all the pleasures of the flesh, anything that might make them use their brains Clean them all up, this is the king's breeding method, Bonaparte is still mentally normal now, I don't know if he will become like those beasts in the future."

"Whoa, Jefferson really said that?" Georgiana exclaimed.

"What do you want to hear about George III?" Lucien asked.

"What did he say?"

"George of England wears the doublet of a madman."

"He once threatened me that he would put me in a lunatic asylum." Georgiana complained to Lucien.

"This is the world we live in." Lucien sang like an opera. "I love it so much!"

　What Jefferson really said was what he said, and that's what he wrote to Governor John Langdon on March 1810, 3
