Chapter 1013: "Bad Woman"

Chapter 1013 "Bad Woman"

If Interlaken is the eyes of God, then why didn’t he find Palodo?

Pomona looked at the scenery outside the window and fell into contemplation. The word "parodo" represents the passage for the chorus in Greek drama. The southern part of the Alps spreads Greek mythology, and the other side believes in Norse mythology, and there is also Catholicism. , Protestant, they meet together, if they sing their own songs, they will be as disorderly and disorderly as Hogwarts school songs.

Unless these cultural elements can be integrated, the European continent is actually not doing very well at this point. If it is good, there will not be so many countries, large and small.

The New World did not do well in this respect. The Americans broke various civilizations into shreds of paper, and then integrated them according to the needs of Hollywood movies to form a flow of information that stimulates people’s senses, impacting people’s vision and hearing. It's like poisonous milk mixed with white snakeroot grass. After drinking it, the muscles tremble all over, like epilepsy, but also like a demon.

Nancy, the mother of American President Abraham Lincoln, who was committed to liberating slaves, died of this disease. Snakeroot is a weed that is very common in the New World. It looks like an ordinary white flower that blooms in the mountains and the wild. This plant is highly poisonous. Cows will die if they eat it. People will die if they drink the milk produced by cows that ate Snakeroot. In the 19th century, people tried every means to find the culprit who poisoned their livestock. At the beginning of the 20th century, people understood the truth of the matter.

There are many ways to poison a person. You don’t have to use a sip that kills you. Even if the king and the pope ask people to test the poison for themselves, the person who tastes the poison will only drink one sip. If the poison is less than lethal, it won’t be. fatal.

The War of the Spanish Succession was due to the extinction of the Habsburg dynasty of Spain. Carlos II was nicknamed "The Demon" and was married to close relatives. Carlos II suffered from a variety of genetic diseases, mental retardation and epilepsy. Death cannot bear the education that a monarch should receive. He is the most serious of the Habsburg family's lordosis patients. The jaw is too large for him to chew.

In the last few years of Carlos II’s life, he appeared to be more mentally sensitive and behaved strangely. At this time, he was completely disabled, all his hair was lost, his deafness, his eyes were almost invisible, his teeth were few, and he suffered from serious illness. epilepsy. His all sorts of weird behaviors were called "demonized" by foreign spies, so he got the nickname of "devil in the middle".

Because Carlos II was diagnosed as infertile very early, it is impossible to have children. Who will inherit the Spanish colonial empire has become an important issue for Spain and the whole of Europe.

On November 1, 1700, Carlos II suddenly died at the age of 38, which opened the prelude to the War of Succession to the Spanish Throne.

Prince Eugen’s mother, Olympia Mancini, Countess Soissons was the niece of the chief minister of the French Privy Council and Cardinal Jules Mazarin, and also the first love of Louis XIV.

Olympia was raised by her uncle Mazarin when she was young, and when she grew up, she entered the upper class of France. She surprised the court as soon as she appeared and became a socialite. The young Louis XIV was overwhelmed. It is said that Louis wanted to marry in the 1650s. She is the queen.

But the shrewd Mazarin knew that his family was too low, and was afraid of public criticism, so he sent Olympia back to Italy to marry the Earl of Soissons. Among the eight children after marriage, the most well-known is Prince Eugen, the **** of war.

Mazarin also arranged for Louis to marry the Spanish princess Maria Theresa as queen two years later for political gain. Olympia moved back to Paris with her family a few years after the marriage. Nostalgia came to gain family benefits, and many people believed that she was once again the mistress of His Holiness. But because of the poisoning incident in the court in 1679, she suddenly fell out of favor in 1680. She was also accused of poisoning her husband in 1673 and poisoning the king, and was forced to exile from France to Spain.

In 1690, he moved to Brussels, the capital of the Spanish Netherlands, and lived there until his death in 1708. He left his children in France and entrusted them to the care of his mother-in-law.

The discovery of the New World brought Spain a large amount of silver, but it did not make the Spanish rich overnight. On the contrary, it might bring the poison of the New World to Europe. Some people even rumored that Carlos II was poisoned and the murderer It was Olympia, the mother of Prince Eugen.

Eugen’s father, Eugene Morris, got the position of an officer because of his wife. He has been busy with military affairs outside for a long time, and he has no time to take care of family affairs, including his wife’s romantic affairs. Eugen was only 10 years old when he died suddenly in 1673. There are rumors that Olympia poisoned her husband in order to cover up her scandal.

It is not written in the history books how the poor officer died. If it was Olympia who poisoned the Spanish king, it would be a foolish account.

Prince Eugen was ugly and thin, and was known as a little monk. His grandmother also wanted him to enter the monastery, but he was unmoved. In 1683, he asked to be in the army to command a company, but he was taken by Louis X for his short stature. Four refused.

It happened that the Ottoman Empire launched a large-scale attack on Central Europe, and the Christian world was greatly shaken. 19-year-old Eugen went to the front line as a volunteer and met the Holy Roman Emperor Leopold I under the city of Vienna. At this time Eugen’s only brother was the leader of the Dragoons in the Imperial Army, but the Dragoons at the time were far less famous than the Polish Winged Cavalry. The Battle of Vienna was finally won by the alliance led by the Habsburgs.

Eugen fought bravely and was appreciated, but his brother died. The emperor missed his martyrdom and admired Eugen's bravery, so in December 1683 that year, a newly formed 800-man Dragoon regiment was handed over to Eugen's command.

Eugen was deeply aware of the grace of encounter, and from then on he regarded Austria as his homeland. In the following ten years, the imperial army regained large territories in Eastern Europe such as Hungary. In 1686, he participated in the battle to conquer the city of Buda. Outstanding, led his troops into Italy in 1689, repeatedly defeating the invading French army.

For soldiers, there is nothing more noble than a person from the grassroots who is promoted with military merit.

In 1693, 29-year-old Eugen was promoted to the Imperial Field Marshal. In 1694, he served as the commander-in-chief of the Army of Northern Italy, where he commanded operations independently for the first time.

In 1697, Eugen moved to the Eastern Front again and served as the commander-in-chief of the Imperial Army in the battle against the Ottoman Empire. In the same year, he achieved a victory of 50,000 to 100,000 with a sudden attack. This was the first time that a European army defeated a Sultan. By personally conquering and achieving the most complete victory, Prince Eugen rose to fame across Europe almost overnight and became a European hero who fought against the infidels.

The Spanish War of Succession broke out. Eugen first commanded the imperial army to evade actual attacks and penetrated into central Italy, and then another beautiful surprise attack. From the sewers, he captured the French commander in Italy alive, the Villeroi who succeeded Catina. marshal.

The following year, France changed to a more capable general, the Duke of Vendôme, and took most of his victory with twice the strength of Prince Eugen.

The hapless French reinforcements who should have gone to the Battle of Turin came to Paloto because they lost their way in the mountains, and they were unlucky enough to die a few nobles. If they died in the battle, it’s okay, the problem is that they will not see anyone. If the corpse is not seen, if the leader of the team just goes back like this, he will definitely be hated by the parents of these nobles.

At that time, the French court was full of conspiracies and tricks. A carelessness not only lost the future, but also lost life. The elimination of Warcraft could at least end up with a good reputation, but it is estimated that no one would believe this, so it was just like history. It was covered up.

This is very common in history. It is known as an army of one million, but in fact there are only 200,000 people, or the army has encountered a flood on the road, and it is not surprising that tens of thousands of people have disappeared collectively.

The number of soldiers who died in World War II is not necessarily accurate, not to mention civilians. People in troubled times are dying, and it is different from the fact that one or two climbers who are missing now have to search for mountains.

For so many years, what did the creatures in the sinkhole eat?

Pomona can’t help but sigh, she is the only one who pays attention to some strange things. What kind of food does Carlos II, whose jaw can’t chew, eat? milk? Or oatmeal?

What's the point of living like him?

Louis XVI’s idea is actually quite easy to understand. If the imperial power is to be fettered by the law and cannot be used at will, would such a French king still mean that in front of it?

is so enjoyable because it can be used at will. Now the Queen of England has to publicize how much she spends on her hair and give it to the masses to supervise it.

The so-called dancing with rock music is almost the same as epilepsy. Living in a Muggle-run hotel, it is inevitable to hear music that does not know where it comes from. The drum beats accompanied by the original rhythm make her almost uncontrollable. By myself.

She rummaged through the seed pockets Neville had given her to see if there was something that would stop them from making noise, only to find carnivorous plants.

She thought about it again, and went back to the painting box to deal with her greenhouse.

After going back down the ladder, it suddenly became quieter.

This greenhouse is not just for admiring and growing some ornamental plants. To say the most ideal natural home security system, she first thought of a magical plant produced in Mexico.

Its name is "Bad Woman". It looks like a pure white flower on the outside, but it is covered with iron-like thorns. These thorns are even used as fish hooks by the indigenous people.

The terrible thing about this plant is that it secretes a corrosive liquid, which can make the poisoned person fall into pain, but it won’t kill him.

It is not always moving like other magic plants, but it has a very magical effect, that is, it will not hurt if it thinks it is "self".

The basis of its identification is its pollen. If there is no pollen and touch its branches, it will make people who encounter it regret coming to this world.

Compared to "bad women", Pomona prefers to call it Nemesis.

What effect the pollen of this magic plant will bring. The master of the potion is still studying. The magical animals in Europe hardly respond to it, except for the Ye Qi, which will sneeze after sniffing it.

Who won’t be allergic to pollen in spring?

Although spring is good, it will also bring some small troubles to people. You should not shovel all the flowers like white snakeroot because you are allergic to pollen.

"Cockroach pile, where are you?" Pomona shouted. Her greenhouse is not completely safe. It would be bad if the snake was eaten.

Not long after, the two-foot-long bird snake crawled to her feet and rubbed her head against her thighs affectionately.

"Do you think that wand is an old wand?" Voldemort asked softly.

"I don't know, I don't even know what that wizard is called." Pomona said, stroking the head of the pile of cockroaches.

"The old magic wand has always been heard in the UK. You are not curious how it got into the hands of the German wand maker?"

Pomona was stunned.

"Grindelwald is the old wand that was stolen, and then lost to Albus Dumbledore. If it is an ordinary elderberry wand, it will not have much power. Only those made by the **** of death can be infinitely powerful."

"But Severus said that the wand used by the dark wizard was burned."

"Ha, Severus knows I'm here, he can't tell the truth." Voldemort said with a smile.

"Are you going to be a Muggle panic?"

"No need, I'm not interested in that wand anymore." Voldemort said lazily.

"You don't want the old magic wand?"

"I just want to use it to kill Harry Potter."

"You don't want to kill Harry now?" Pomona asked.

Voldemort did not answer her.

"Navi Longbottom, he killed Nagini."

Pomona's heart tightened.

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in him anymore." Voldemort still said softly.

"Then what are you interested in? Tom?"
