Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2451 Cecal Zone (5)

   In order to prepare for this trip to Belgium, Josephine made a lot of preparations. First she bought a pearl necklace worth 250,000 francs, which once belonged to Marie Antoinette, which was used as collateral during the Revolution, and later fell into the hands of the jeweler Fossier.

   "250,000 francs?" cried Georgiana, surprised.

   "Don't you have a Mughal diamond too," Charlotte said, chewing on chocolate. "Guess how she got the money?"

  Georgianna shook her head.

   "She approached Berthier and asked him to find a way to raise the money."

   "Berthier embezzled public funds?" asked Georgiana.

"He initially wanted to sell the wood on the walls of Brussels, but the mayor stopped him, so he went to the military medical contractor in Italy and demanded compensation for poor service, which could be a huge profit." Charlotte ate another chocolate "and the pearl went from the jeweler's safe to Josephine's jewelry box."

  Georgianna frowned, thinking that she should write to ask Bonaparte where he got the money for the diamonds.

   "Why don't you wear a crown?" Charlotte asked.

   "I don't think it's a good idea to wear it," Georgiana replied.

   "Josephine wore a crown to a ceremony in Lyon last time."

   "She was scolded later."

   "You must be right, take it out and see!" Charlotte urged.

  Georgiana suspected she wanted to wear those jewels, so she took the job.

  "I really don't have~"

   "Do you know how many people want to give you gifts? Do you know Brion?"

   "You have so many questions."

"The last time I met the Swedish ambassador, he talked to me. In 1797, he went to Milan to meet Napoleon. At that time, he was in a bad mood and yelled at the ambassador. The ambassador said that he had never seen such a thing in his life. A man of temper." Charlotte said, "Brion became the French ambassador to Sweden, and the morning before he left, Napoleon was furious again because a letter to Talleyrand was late."

   "What's the matter?" asked Georgiana with concern.

"At first he thought it was the problem of Brion and the government messengers, so he rang the bell and called them all in, but with such force he broke the rope, and slammed his hand on the corner of the fireplace, Then he bleeds." Charlotte took a sip of water. "He didn't know who to take his anger on, and Talleyrand told him to calm down, and then the messenger came, and he was so frightened that he almost fainted, and he answered falteringly, and now Napoleon More annoyed than before, he slammed the door shut, leaving a **** handprint on the door."

  Georgianna thought it was pretty scary, but she was less scared when she remembered what Ginny had written in blood.

"Brion used to be his classmate, so when he knocked on the door, Napoleon yelled through the door 'Go away, you idiot!', and then Brion kicked the door open and shouted, 'You are better than me! And a hundred times more stupid,' and then went upstairs to the office, packed his things, and that's how he quit."

  Georgianna thought it was time to laugh.

   "Didn't he get angry in front of you?" Charlotte asked.

   "Sure," said Georgiana, who remembered that disgusting lunch.

   "Aren't you afraid of him?"

   "Sure," said Georgiana, thinking of the document she had signed for the cremation of the body.

   "You're so bold," Charlotte said with "admiration".

   "You call him Pori, are you still afraid of him?" Georgiana said with a smile.

   "Maybe so, I won't be afraid." Charlotte said calmly, "Is it because you used magic to quiet him down?"

   "No, I'm useless."

   Charlotte looked a little disbelieving.

  Georgianna chose one from the chocolate pile and chewed it slowly. It was coffee-filled with a hint of bitterness.

   Charlotte suddenly put her hand on her chin and lifted her head up.

   "I see." The female boxer said with a smile, "So it is."

   She didn't like this pose and slapped Charlotte's hand away.

   "Tell me how you usually get along."

  Georgianna didn't want her private life to appear in the tabloids.

   "He'll spend an hour watching Josephine dress up." Charlotte said to herself, "But I heard he doesn't seem to have seen you dress up."

   "We're not sleeping in the same room again." Georgiana muttered.

   "You know what I mean," Charlotte said. "He especially likes looking at your neck."

   "What?" Georgiana touched her neck with lingering fears.

   "Don't worry, he didn't think about twisting it off." Charlotte waved her hand and ate another chocolate. "Why don't you like wearing necklaces?"

  Georgianna did not answer, she wears necklaces more often than before, mainly because she must wear very luxurious necklaces when attending formal occasions. If Bonaparte hadn't removed her black swan necklace, she might still be wearing it. She had clearly told him that taking off the necklace would make her old and ugly.

   "Come on, show me your jewelry." Charlotte said, taking Georgiana's arm.

  Woman, you won't give up until you reach your goal.

   So Georgiana was dragged by Charlotte and went to the Rashfukov people. Originally, Alice was the custodian of her jewelry, but she was still playing somewhere, and her own job was taken over by her mother.

  This castle belonging to the former Prime Minister of the Duchy of Brabantine is not as big as Hogwarts, but the quietness in the corridor gave her a feeling of walking in the castle at night.

   Charlotte talked about her "sights" as she walked.

Brion can speak many languages ​​and write many languages. He is a very good secretary, but not a good diplomat. How should I put it, he seems to have entered retirement early, and being an ambassador in Sweden is basically recuperation, as if repairing physical and mental trauma.

After writing his resignation letter, Brion gave it to Dilock, who gave him a note telling him that the "Last Supper" was being held there, and that Brion was leaving Duy after the meal. Le Li Palace, go to other places to find accommodation.

At that meal, Josephine and Ottens were both present, and Napoleon looked indifferent, and after the meal he talked to the others, and he was entertained by Josephine and Ottens, who could provide Brion with a place at Malmaison. residence.

   "Your new home has to be like that, have you found the right place?" Charlotte asked.

  Georgianna shook her head.

   "How about living in the former palace? If the damage is not serious, it can be repaired and lived in the same way as the Tuileries Palace." Charlotte said.

   "What do you want?" Police Georgiana asked.

   Charlotte was about to speak when the two heard movement from behind the door.

  I saw Charlotte put her ear against the door, then took two steps back, lifted her skirt, and kicked the door open with one foot. After the door was knocked open, I saw a mess in the room, and the woman who was rescued on the road yesterday was looking at them in surprise.

  She was covered with jewels, and there was a bag on her hand. It looked like she wanted to decorate something before leaving. She saw the two of them, and she was so skilled that she lost a necklace in her hand and pulled out the dagger.

   "Go away, bitch!" she grinned like a snarling dog.

   Charlotte smiled defiantly, "You think the gadget in your hand can handle me?"

  The woman screamed and aimed the dagger at Charlotte's abdomen, and the female boxer easily avoided it.

  Georgianna did not call the guard.

   She took out the wand from the bracelet and used a "restore as before", all the messed up and damaged things returned to their original places.

   Seeing this scene, the two who were planning to fight stopped and looked at her together.

   "I knew these jewels would get in trouble," said Georgiana, leaning over her waist. "Tell me who you are, Miss Thief."
