Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2274 The Winter Banquet of the Sea God (sixteen)

Georgiana sat in her carriage and looked at the crowd outside the car window. Mechelen, pronounced Marin in French, was the capital of Flanders before the 16th century, and many government departments moved to it in the 16th century. Brussels, the city's political influence has dropped a lot.

The highly lucrative wool trade gained huge wealth in the late Middle Ages, and Flanders became a wealthy area, as well as a region seized by Britain and France. Today, because the center of the cotton textile industry is located in England, its influence as an industrial center is also greatly reduced. .

The only thing Mechelen left behind was the authority of religion, which seemed to explain the small number of pedestrians on the streets of the city and their indifference. Although the seminary demolished by the French belonged to Leuven, it was at least displayed in Ghent. A welcome bazaar where people on tour can see Ghent's specialties.

She looked back and looked at the fire opal ring on her hand. She had actually noticed that, whether it was a banquet or a dance, many people would pay special attention to it, and then compared with the ring on Bonaparte's hand, it was obvious See that they are not pairs of rings.

  The more forbidden, the more he wanted to try. In order to marry Anne Boleyn, Henry VIII changed the state religion of England so that he would not have to wait for the Pope to agree to divorce his original wife and marry Anne Boleyn.

But when Anne really became his legal wife, his enthusiasm for her soon faded, until she gave birth to Elizabeth I for him, but in the end Anne Boleyn still did not escape the fate of being imprisoned and beheaded. Because Henry VIII wanted a male heir.

   She was accused of adultery by the king, and she was accused of being a witch, but this charge was not convicted.

A nasty woman, even if she was a queen, would be burned to death in a rage, or thrown out of the window as in the case of Prague, unless she escaped through the secret passage before the angry crowd rushed in, but then She is different from Theodora of "the purple robe is the most beautiful shroud".

  From June 1672, so isolated that he had to dig seawalls for defense, and to launch a counterattack in November, William III did not sit still in Amsterdam, at least he won over Spain and Brandenburg. The "rules of the game" in Europe are different from those in the Eastern Roman Empire. After all, Theodora was a man of the imperial age.

   As soon as she thought about it more deeply, her mind was full of random thoughts, and she wished to use Occlumency to keep those distracting thoughts out of her mind.

   "I think I understand why the beauties of Italy want to conquer the first government so much." The Rashfurkovs looked at Georgiana and said with a smile.

   She felt as though she had been struck by lightning, and then she looked at the unmarried young girls, who all looked away.

   "Is it that obvious?" she said embarrassedly.

   "I think you need it." The Rashfurkovs handed her a lace veil.

   She put it on her head and covered her face with it.

"How?"

   The Rashfurkovs looked at her dumbfounded.

   "Is it bad?"

   "No." Matilda said sourly, "It's beautiful."

   At this moment the carriage stopped, and they came to a house full of Renaissance style, and then the door of the carriage was opened.

   She looked at the young man who opened the door for her. He stared at her as if he saw something surprised, and stood there with his mouth open.

   "Cough cough." Figuer coughed behind him, and then he came back to his senses. Originally, he wanted to reach out to help her get out of the car, but Figuer did it for him.

She was wearing an ancient Greek-style dress with a gold belt on the waist and a colored raw-edged cloak over it, which looked very incongruous. Rain, even if the courtyard is paved with slate, there is still water on it, and the snow-white dress will become dirty when it falls on it.

  Leila was very clever enough to help her pull up the skirt. In fact, what Georgiana wanted to say was why she was wearing this bad skirt.

After    got off the car, she realized that the guards were not the guards, but the Mamluks from Egypt, and Shabi was standing not far away.

   "Why are they here?" Georgiana asked Figgle.

   "I don't know." Figel looked at Georgiana and said, "This is the arrangement of the First Executive."

   She looked again, and there was not a single Frenchman around.

   "This is the Doge's Palace, which used to belong to Margaret of Austria." said the neglected young man, "I am the administrator of this palace."

   She didn't say anything, wrapped her cloak tightly and walked into the palace.

  Before Beauxbatons students looked weak when they got out of the car, she never imagined that she would have such a day.

  Scotland's cold wind is not lost to the North Sea, of course, who told her to wear summer clothes in winter.

The middle of the palace is Gothic, and the two wings are renaissance, which looks like they are spliced ​​together. She did not live in Margaret's master bedroom, although Austria is not like the Dutch, and I think it will be very difficult to sleep flat. Easy to die, the bed is a normal size, but Mechelen is the city of furniture, and they have a stylish French bedroom for her on one of the two Renaissance wings.

  The bath water is ready, which is not her habit, but now she really needs to take a bath, while others are busy outside while she is taking a bath.

If they set off from Mechelen to the Ardennes, the distance would be much farther. If they were to throw away their "burdens" and move at a fast marching speed, it would take her to go from Brussels to Compiègne in about the same time, except This requires split action.

   He also got the Mamluks ready, and Georgiana finally understood what his itinerary meant.

The title of Viceroy sounds really tempting, but she knows it's just a dream, and the final winner is England, and the bearskin caps on the heads of the Praetorian Guards who change positions in front of Buckingham Palace every day are from the head of the French. taken off.

   "She stopped bleeding." In the slightly swaying carriage, he said calmly, "You know what that means?"

   Georgiana didn't answer at the time, but what she didn't understand was why Josephine had gone through menopause in her forties.

  Will you forgive someone who once betrayed you?

  Georgianna suddenly understood why Josephine did not follow Bonaparte to St. Hena, because he insisted on getting divorced and marrying the Austrian princess.

A lot of people were on his side because Josephine was with a cavalryman when Napoleon went to Egypt, but if what Josephine said was true, she was trying to find out if someone in Parliament had set a trap for him , let him die on the battlefield, only with that cavalry?

   Josephine was doing her duty, and Georgiana should not have been involved in it in the first place, not even "imagining".

   She slowly opened her eyes, and the water in the bath somehow turned blood red, like she was soaked in blood.

   Then she heard the cry of a child. This scene was so familiar that it reminded her of... Tobia.

  Severus resembled his dad in many ways, except that he wore black, while Tobias wore leopard-print silk shirts.

   "Miss me?" He said with a smile, then suddenly reached out and pressed her into the water.

  Before suffocating, she wondered who she was, Eileen or the disloyal half-breed veela, or the pudgy, but child-like Pomona Sprout.

  You may find it hard to believe, but not all stepmothers hate children who were not born to them. For example, Pomona has taken care of the little wizards at Hogwarts for many years, and she is used to helping people look after children.

   Many of these kids won't go back to school after graduation, and she doesn't expect them to reciprocate.

   A small hand pulled her and got up from the "blood water". She looked at the child in front of her. Before she could ask him, he ran away without looking back.

   "Margaret!" cried Georgiana.

   Then from another door, her maid Margaret appeared.

   "Madam!" Margaret exclaimed as she looked at the scene in front of her.

  Georgianna didn't let her go after the little boy, she almost forgot that this was an Austrian house, and of course there would be "mischief spirits" there.

   She was about to crawl out of the bathtub, but found that there was a lot of glass debris on the side of the bathtub. If she stepped on it with bare feet, she would be injured.

   "Bring me my bracelet," she said calmly, standing in the water, and Margaret did so immediately.

   When the wand was in her hand again, she felt a sense of security.

   "Fuck you," she cursed, wrapping herself in a towel,

   She would never try to get pregnant like Josephine.

   "Fuck you!" she cursed again, then climbed out of the tub.
