Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 1293 Gossip

During a nap in the afternoon, Napoleon once told Georgiana that he had climbed a mountain called Tabor in Pakistan. This mountain looked like a sugar cube and controlled a part of Pakistan. The guide told him that this is the new place. About the place where the devil once took **** Christ in the story.

  The devil said to **** that if **** would worship him, he would give him the entire country he saw from the mountain.

  Of course, **** did not listen to the devil, and Napoleon did not believe that the mountain was the place said in the myth. Until one day, when his square formation met the Turkish cavalry again, in the melee, a 300-man cavalry raided the Turkish barracks, ransacked it, hijacked the prisoners, and set fire to the tent.

  The scene of the continuous tent burning up looked terrifying, which made the Turks very frightened. Several groups of Turkish cavalry once approached the phalanx. After reaching the firing range of the musket, they were shot back by shotguns and retreated. These enemy forces were terrified. Some fled to Nablus and some fled to the Jordan River. They lost a lot of people when they attacked and lost even more when they retreated. The heavy rain made the Jordan River soar and thousands of people drowned in the river.

  Kleber killed and injured about three hundred people, and Napoleon lost only three or four people. This kind of battle damage sounds incredible. The soldiers quietly talked about him, saying that he was blessed by God and could survive with the commander-in-chief.

   People in the 18th century seem to have contracted a strange disease. People have endless interest in all kinds of gossip, anecdotes and anecdotes. The French need information just as they need bread every day. The official newspaper is controlled by Napoleon, and its content simply cannot satisfy the curiosity of the public. People exchange gossip in cafes, bistros, salons, palace gardens, Tuileries Park, Luxembourg Gardens and other places. The hottest gossip that has been spread recently is "pox". Bonaparte’s military expert Catch the inoculations of women who look innocent and lovely, but are actually very scheming and countless ministers under their skirts.

  They broke into the women’s homes, places of work, places of entertainment and shopping, whether on the street or not, they tore their sleeves and vaccinated their arms.

  Often, there are one or two of these people who have had smallpox and their faces are full of potholes, smiling at those "good girls" with fair skin. Regardless of how they were screaming and rolling, the male soldiers' hand strength made them unbearable. After the inoculation, the arms became red, just like the sailor's arm was exposed to the sun.

  So the word "red arm" gradually became a very bad vocabulary, and if you told it to a real serious girl, she would turn her face in anger. Marriage advertisements in the newspapers, men and women will also specifically point out that they can marry people with high morals.

The personal life of the first ruling Napoleon Bonaparte is also a topic of discussion. Many people remember the protruding cheekbones and gloomy face during the Wuyue coup, like a general wearing an ancient Roman mask, with as many clouds as a general. Hired from the look when crossing the street.

  Now his complexion has improved a lot, calm and gentle, his face stretched out, his activities have not been reduced, but he has become orderly.

  He arrives at the office to work at 8 o'clock at the latest. He will only have a short break at lunch, but he will not eat alone. His food list has almost been made public, no different from ordinary people, and even slightly saved. In this year of famine, it feels much more comfortable to meet a leader who can share adversity instead of enjoying delicious food alone.

Rambouillet’s dinner party has also become a topic. The ingredients are almost all available in the market at very low prices. The French are very curious about food. The chefs who participated in the banquet made a gourmet meal on the Champ de Mars. Festival, so that people who are not rich in their hands, but want to have fun, have a place to go.

  There are still cheap breads sold in the market, not white bread, but the kind of black bread eaten in the army. I used to buy this kind of bread and I felt very shameless. But after calculating his income, some people bought and ate it. What's more, when the first ruling was young, let his mother Letizia give him brown bread. He said that he would be a soldier in the future, and he would eat it when he was a soldier. Black bread.

Although this kind of life is bitter, the hopeful day is still much better than the feeling of not seeing the sun when the Bourbon royal family was in power. There are fewer beggars on the street than before, saying that they are going to dig a canal to solve Paris. Water supply problem. No one would take the initiative to pick up a pamphlet on the street to rehabilitate Louis XVI.

The Bastille can close people with a small note, and there is also the official porridge system of the Mistress of Louis XV. The more the king’s financial constraints, the more new positions will be created. After buying these official positions, there will be tax exemptions or privilege. These people did not buy official posts and titles to gain power, but pretended to be doing things. In fact, they did nothing. The state apparatus was idling in a certain way, and the official posts of the Bourbon dynasty were incredible.

Whether it’s Paris, London, Munich, or Moscow, as long as people in the capital will inevitably discuss politics, the king has sold official positions. From Henry IV onwards, he also sold the hereditary rights of certain official positions, in order to avoid the supervision of the third-level parliament. The transfer of political functions to the Supreme Court resulted in serious judicial chaos.

The justices appointed by Bonaparte were also terrible. When the opera was strictly censored and there was nothing to watch, the Supreme Court became a place for public "entertainment". The mayor of Antwerp was arrested for smuggling and the Senate intervened. He was released from the Criminal Court and later transferred to a special court for trial.

  The judges of the special court are all soldiers, and the defense lawyers and defendants can choose. It is not mandatory that lawyers must be present. The vast majority of ordinary civilians do not have a good impression of the group of lawyers in the supervising government. Even if they are officials, they still "collect money and do things" as they did when they were lawyers. The Mayor of Antwerp is determined to hire lawyers, but his case is the case. With all the stolen goods, the possibility of overturning the case is very small, and no lawyer is willing to accept it.

  Before watching the show, it was wrong. It was the audience who was watching that the military judges were disgusting and the lackeys of the dictator. As soon as the "vaccination" incident came out, they suddenly felt that they were also pitiful people who were bullied by the women so they could not fight back.

  In the end, we must rely on women to deal with women. The foreign woman who gave them their heads was the woman who had been making a lot of noise a while ago and Napoleon Bonaparte snatched it from others.

  At first, people thought she was a coquettish and plump Cleopatra. Many people saw her at the mineral water sales point in the ice store that day. She was very short, and the short Bonaparte looked tall and mighty by her side.

  She is pretty and has no prominent figure. The key is that her voice is very sweet. Even if she speaks loudly, she can’t feel the fire.

She did not squander as much as Marie Antoinette, nor did she see her riding on the streets of Paris in an open carriage with the first governor. She did not fight for all the occasions when the first lady was a limelight, unlike the Bourbon dynasty. The mistresses dressed themselves up to make themselves the focus of the ball.

She is low-key and has almost no sense of existence, and even her clothes are made of woolen cloth, which is the material of uniforms worn by soldiers. It was prepared for her by the first ruling costume manager. She wears whatever she wears, only one emerald. Olive leaf brooches are bound to be worn.

People who were simply chasing fashion also bought the same olive leaf brooch to wear. Later, it was reported that this jewelry originated from a notice posted when the French army entered the Papal State: The French army will abide by its various principles and protect religion. To protect the people, the French army holds a sword in one hand, which is a reliable guarantee of victory, and an olive branch in one hand, which is a symbol of peace and a certificate of protection.

  Gradually, some people understood why Lord Bonaparte would cheekily win love.

  The civil law stipulates that unmarried women should find guardians. This law has been implemented very quickly, and it is almost hard to see women alone during the social season.

  They are either holding their father or their elder brothers. Young people who want to find opportunities to get close must pass the guardianship first.

  Georgiana’s guardians have changed a few, including Edward Jenner, the great benefactor Leoncourt, and the patriotic scientist Sharptar. Recently, her guardian has changed again, and it is the Pope’s special envoy Caprara.

  It is said that he lost his memory after being kidnapped due to a concussion. He does not remember what the kidnapper looked like or where he was held. It is really an old confusion.

  No one said that the Americans did it, but everyone knows how high France’s tariffs on the United States are. French ports are not closed to American merchant ships, but the United States may have to pay for shipping goods to France for sale.

  France has colonies in the Americas, and the United Kingdom has colonies in the Americas. The French Revolution and the American War of Independence are inextricably linked. France suffered a disastrous defeat in the Seven Years' War. In order to improve its reputation, support American independence and destroy Britain's reputation.

  Now that Britain and France are not fighting, it has changed to focus on actual interests. Now, Britain and France are going to unite to tear up the "Paris Peace Treaty", refuse to recognize the independence of the United States, and reclaim the lost colonies?

  The old system and the Great Revolution, the new party must of course deny all the wrong policies of the previous dynasty.

  Although it's a bit weird, it's not without logic, but the person who came up with this idea is a bit scary.

  If there is no coffee to drink, people who chat can drink black tea with sugar instead.

  I just don’t know how many days this tea will last, and when Britain and France become hostile again, what will happen to the fate of Miss Georgiana? It would be a shame if the two countries are hostile and die.
