Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2483 gossiphouse (middle)

Since George Brian Brummel is also a member of the "brotherclub", the libertines of the upper class are always dressed in fancy clothes, which makes Grenwell look a unique bookishness, dressed calmly and low-key, with double eyebrows under his thick eyebrows. Have the eyes of God.

When Emma approached him, she was pregnant. She was no longer as beautiful as a figure in ancient Greek sculpture. She was bloated and had a rash. At that time, she was taken care of by a man named Harry, and Emma used to live in his suburban house. The role of the hostess at the Di dinner, she fully displays her charm and pleases his friends. However, this actually became an excuse for Harry's accusation, he believed that the child in Emma's womb was not his.

If nothing else, Emma might end up on the streets like Merope, or die after giving birth in an orphanage, but Grenwell took her to Paddington to settle down, and her mother —Mary, known as Mrs. Cadogan, also came to accompany her.

There are many ways for men to spend money on women, which can be roughly divided into two types. One is La Traviata, who left behind a lot of jewelry after her death. Each jewelry has different initials on it, but it means Because she did not cut off contact with society. There is another kind of Emma, ​​who patiently waits for the man to "come home" in the suburban house, until one day she is suddenly kicked out.

  Despite what she's been through, Emma is still the pretty girl from the destitute miners' village, she didn't learn to transform like Josephine and become a social star in Parisian society. It was her pure beauty and simplicity that attracted Grenville, and she felt that she still had something to transform.

If Grenville didn't go to Cavendish Square to paint a portrait of herself, Emma's life trajectory is almost predictable. Even if Grenville is no longer interested in her one day, she will not wander. On the street, a man who is willing to help Emma when she has nowhere to go will not die for her.

  Grenville was looking for Romney. At that time, there was a painter named Reynolds. He rivaled Romney and contracted almost all the portrait painting business in London. In terms of painting skills and the verve conveyed, the two are comparable, and both of them have studied in Rome, and both have a dramatic atmosphere, but Romney has a more dramatic atmosphere than Reynolds' war-like atmosphere. French romantic style, he is good at painting beauties in costumes.

  In a sense, painting portraits is recommended by people you know, and you can find which painter you are in what kind of social circle you are in. When Emma's portraits filled Remney's studio, it was already known to everyone in Reynolds' studio, even though Emma's portraits were well-dressed at the time - a simple white dress, that one The drapey skirt was blown by the light wind and outlined Emma's light figure.

   Soon Grenville learned that Emma often sang in the garden and sang in front of people. She had a good voice, but she had not received systematic training and was not suitable for singing opera. In short, Charlotte saw with her own eyes a furious Grenville grabbing Emma from the park, and then she didn't see Emma again for a long time.

When I saw Emma again, she had become the wife of William Hamilton, the British ambassador to Sicily. Instead of hiding her like Grenville, he made her socialize like a real ambassador's wife. As a result, Remney came to the door again. He abandoned all his clients and painted several portraits of Emma, ​​and then the scandal began to spread in the streets, and the snuff bottles and enamels with Emma's head were sold on the streets.

   Until Nelson showed up.

  Nelson met Emma because of the war, his fleet was to protect the British Embassy and the Bourbon Palace in Naples, and the Hamilton family and the royal family were sent to Sicily under the attack of the French.

  The French fleet can be defended, how could he not be able to defend against an infatuated painter.

   But Nelson underestimated the extent of Romney's stalking and his use of his influence in London. In short, Nelson bought a villa in Maeston Park and began a sensational three-person cohabitation life.

   Aside from Emma's chance to go shopping, Romney has little chance of getting close to her. In addition to his illustrious military exploits, Nelson is also a friend of William Pitt Jr. Due to the good and bad health of King George III, there was a "controversy" in Parliament over the issue of the heir to the throne and the regent. William Pitt of course supported the Prince of Wales, but once Fox came to power, his administrative system would collapse, fortunately The crisis passed quickly, as the king's body recovered again.

  But this may have given Romney some kind of "inspiration". His studio gradually became a gathering place for William Pitt's political enemies. In 1800, the Irish problem caused William Pitt to resign, but it did not affect Nelson...

   "You're too scary." Georgiana couldn't help interrupting Charlotte.

   "Where's the horror?" Charlotte asked.

   She wanted to say that a painter would not have that much ability.

   "Speaking of horror, I heard that an artist painted a portrait of you..."

   "Stop it!" said Georgiana immediately.

   Charlotte smiled ambiguously, "I really want to know what means 'Polly' will use to deal with him."

   "Are you waiting for a good show?"

  Georgianna's voice just fell when Rabastan pushed open the door and walked in.

   "Found it!" he said as he walked.

   "So fast?" asked Georgiana.

   "The girl's name was Irina Buckle and she was brought to London for treatment by a 'Professor J'."

   "What?" Georgiana asked in disbelief.

   "Have you ever heard of 'common vision'?" Rabastan asked.

   "Oh my god," Charlotte complained.

   "Have you heard of it?" Rabastan asked.

   Charlotte looked at Georgiana.

   "It's a well-known soul-experience agency," Charlotte said.

   "Or, it's a well-known collective center for congregational congregations, which they claim to be spiritual healing," Rabastan said.

   "Also, they may be studying water divination," Charlotte said. "For example, you can see visions in the water or something."

   "So, the girl named Helena was taken to London as a gift," Georgiana said.

   "If she's still alive, she'd be in her 130s," Rabastan said. "It's inappropriate to call her a 'little girl.'"

   "What shall I call her then?" asked Georgiana.

   "People call her Mrs. Cassandra," Rabastan said.

  Georgianna was silent.

   "Do you know her?" Rabastan asked.

   "How much do you know about 'Public Vision'?" asked Georgiana.

   "If you want to play psychic games, you can go to them." Charlotte said, "But I heard that some people sold their souls to the devil to get magic."

  Georgianna covered her head.

   "To inform the British Ministry of Magic?" Rabastan asked.

   "Let them come to see me during the next intermission." Georgiana said and stood up, the opening bell rang from outside.
