Harry Potter’s Morning Light

  Chapter 448 Lucky New Year

There are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. The person who said this was Cupid from Ireland, a former British prime minister who was not popular at home or abroad, Henry John Temple Palms pause.

It was this man who pursued a conservative internal and external expansion policy, launched the Opium Wars that invaded China twice, suppressed the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Movement, provoked the Crimean War, competed with the Russians for territory, suppressed the Indian rebellion, and supported the South during the American Civil War. Slave owners group.

He is a beautiful young man who likes to socialize with beautiful women. At the same time he became lovers with three of the seven famous hostesses of the Olmark Club, and he himself was a low-income Irish nobleman. When he announced his relationship with Melburn When the Viscount’s sister got married, the Times called him His Excellency Cupid. It’s really surprising that he did not marry the charming wife of the Russian ambassador.

  He is actively involved in social life, including horse racing and flirting, but rarely participates in political activities. He has tried investing, and the most successful one made an income of 17,000 pounds, but the money was taken away by his partners.

  He was an Irish nobleman, but did not enter the House of Nobles. Instead, he entered the House of Commons as a member of Newport on the Isle of Wight. The lord of the Newport constituency put forward a condition that Palmerston would never enter the city.

  In 1811, he changed the electoral district from Newport to the more prestigious University of Cambridge. Unfortunately, this university did not teach him anything. At that time, the Emperor Napoleon of Britain and France was at war. The huge military debt was passed on to the working people. The people lived in extreme hardship. Many people had to be thieves and pickpockets. He defended the death penalty of being hanged for small crimes such as theft. system.

  Even the "cruel and barbaric" Arabs just chopped off the thief's hand. The British actually hanged the thief to death, which is truly a "civilized country." In 1820 he defied the people's call for a reprieve of the death penalty and was so cruel that he hanged a young sheep thief. By doing so, he showed that he was a loyal defender of the interests of the Tory noble group. From then on he started. Frequent political activities.

He participated in the Peter Lu massacre and sent troops to suppress the mass conference held in Manchester. Many of these troops participated in the Battle of Waterloo. These "heroes" and "elements" who ended Napoleon's rule raised butcher knives against women and the elderly. The British government promulgated six bills in 1819 prohibiting assemblies, demonstrations, and restricting the freedom of the press. This "seal" led to a political strike involving 60,000 people in Glasgow, and the people who implemented this law happened to be Cupid of Ireland.

  There is a big difference between Anglo-American law and the civil law system. The civil law system generally adopts the form of code system, while the Anglo-American law system is often separate laws and regulations.

  The civil law system is also called the statutory law system. The judges of the civil law system first consider how the laws have been enacted when trying cases, and then make precedents based on the relevant regulations and the merits of the case.

  The Anglo-American law system first considers similar previous cases, compares the facts of this case with previous cases, summarizes the legal rules applicable to this case, and uses induction to enumerate a large number of facts and legal basis as the basis for the judgment.

The international secrecy law is the civil law system. The Ministry of Magic judges cases first in accordance with the legal terms, and then uses a large number of facts to demonstrate according to the common law series. Take Harry Potter's use of the Hushen guard in the small Huijin area as an example. He first Violated international secrecy laws, used magic in front of a Muggle, and then violated the rules in paragraph 3 of the "Add a Reasonable Restraint to Minor Wizards Act" enacted by the United Kingdom: deliberately and knowingly committed to live in Muggles It is a crime for the district to use magic in front of a Muggle.

  The behavior classified as "crime" will be severely charged. Not only will he drop out of Hogwarts, he may also have to pay a fine, or even leave the case and go to Azkaban for a while. Albus Dumbledore defended Harry with the Minor Restraint Act. Article 7 of the Act states that magic can be used in front of Muggles under special circumstances. Those special circumstances include being a wizard or being present at the same time. When the lives of other wizards and Muggles are threatened, the binding effect of international law on local laws is relatively low.

The case of Pavasil Dumbledore was tried in accordance with the statutory law of the civil law system. Pavasil used a poisonous curse on Muggles. Whether he avenged his daughter or not, this is not the law. Allowed, he was sentenced to life imprisonment in Azkaban and eventually died in prison.

The relationship between the Ministry of Magic and the Muggle government is good and bad. Priscilla Dupont hates Irish Cupid very much. She is a woman, and even a woman would not like this kind of "scumbag" who interacts with multiple women at the same time, Bomo When Na was reading that period of history, she wanted to give him an Avada Spell, but Priscilla just turned the coin in his coat pocket into a frog egg.

Even the Muggle Prime Minister is a Muggle. Priscilla’s irrational behavior forced him to step down on February 17, 1858. Ironically, two days later, the Irish Cupid was also forced to step down on February 19. This ideological concept is still alive in the Middle Ages. The prime minister likes to opportunistic and to intimidate and deceive. Whether it is career or emotional aspect, these methods were generally successful at the time, but during his tenure as Minister of Foreign Affairs, whether it was the Iberian Peninsula. , Turkey or the interests of the Middle East, Britain eventually lost, and these countries have become very hostile to Britain, and have no favor with this Second British Empire.

In terms of love, he divorced his original wife in 1839 and married his mistress, the 52-year-old widow of Count Cowper. These two men were coquettish and lustful. They lived a very happy life for a while, but Palmerston’s vices remained unchanged. In the same year of his wedding, he broke the virginity of a queen’s maid in Windsor, Victoria. The queen was shocked, and even more shocked was Prince Albert. Who could think of it? The prime minister actually raped a maid in the queen's palace, and of course the maid was coerced into saying that it was "voluntarily".

  At that time, both Queen Victoria and Prince Albert were only 20 years old. Queen Victoria was closely guarded by her mother since she was a child. She inherited the characteristics of the Hanoverian dynasty: stubborn, intolerant, and very assertive. Because of his mother’s adultery, Prince Albert divorced his parents when he was 7 years old. He was educated at the University of Bonn. He is a model of virtue, talent, and self-discipline.

  In the beginning, they were a political marriage. Queen Victoria was very resistant to this marriage, and Albert had nothing to do with it. Queen Victoria tried every way to escape, but eventually met Albert.

The place where they met for the first time was Windsor, where the prime minister’s **** case took place. The beautiful memories of young men and women rowing, riding horses, painting, playing piano, and girls relying on the young men’s broad chest were crushed by the foreign minister’s dirty hands. Up.

In 1952, he was relieved of his duties by the Queen and his wife and sent to deal with the Eastern problem, which is the "opium promotion" formulated by this **** bastard. The only way to deal with China is to "beat him first, and then explain." Policy, he was behind the full-scale advancement of the Opium War in 1840. Before the Nanjing Treaty was formally signed, the Manchu Dynasty also made a cross-nosed treaty with the United Kingdom, including the cessation of Hong Kong, but Palmerston dismissed the treaty for too few benefits. The Chinese government is required to place the opium trade in a normal and legal position.

  He was among those who captured Tianjin, Beijing, and burned the Old Summer Palace.

  He was the one who prevented the French from digging the Suez Canal.

In 1848, Russia invaded Constantinople. The city of Constantinople was of great historical significance to the Orthodox Church. Although it was not as good as the holy city of Jerusalem, it was a symbol of "the city where the Roman emperor lived". At that time, the society was anti-Russian. In a fierce mood, Palmerston, who was cabinet minister at the time, put pressure on the Earl of Aberdeen, who had never wanted to intensify conflicts with Russia, forcing the Earl of Aberdeen to reorganize the cabinet, allowing Clinton, who was affected by him, to assume the post of Minister of Foreign Affairs, and let him His friend is the ambassador to Constantinople. He changed "report" to "issue order" in translating the Russian cc to Britain, which caused an uproar in the cabinet and the Crimean War broke out.

During the war, Russia defeated the Turkish fleet and Palmerston suddenly announced his resignation. This provoked a wave of social opposition to the cabinet. The masses believed that the cabinet had squeezed out the "real patriots", and the Earl of Aberdeen was forced to ask him to return. The cabinet, when he came back again, Palmerston took control of the entire cabinet, and Britain and France also formed a coalition to participate in the Crimean War.

When Palmerston became prime minister when he was 70 years old, he proudly said in the newspaper, "If someone asked me what was most unlikely to happen in the past, I would say that I was prime minister, Aberdeen was still there, and Derby was another. The leader of the big party, John Russell is the leader of another big party. However, after only 10 days, they were blown down by the wind like a straw, so I can now write in Downing Street."

The most embarrassing moment in his life was not his act of discrediting the royal family at Windsor Palace like a male dog. The two-party system was implemented in the United Kingdom. Before the 1830s, it was the period of the Tory cabinet leadership. The opposition party was the Whig Party. He himself thought he was a Tory, but nobody in the Tory regarded him as his own, even if he killed a sheep thief in 1820 and made his political stand clear.

After Wellington took office as prime minister in 1828, he became a Whig member and also became the minister of foreign affairs at this time. He flattered people with rights, and was a strict and disciplined person with people without rights. His head office is the Minister of Foreign Affairs, but he is very rude to the diplomatic envoys, and his heart is always the British Navy.

As early as the early 19th century, some laborers and sailors from South China lived in London and settled in the shipyard area. More and more people gathered in the local area to serve the Chinese sailors in the adjacent shipyard area. Later, legal opium smokehouses and The slums are famous.

After the Second World War, with the influx of Hong Kong immigrants, many Chinese restaurants appeared in Juelu Street. Owners who moved from the shipyard area continued to give shops to other local ethnic groups. Later, Chinese forces gradually occupied Juelu Street and became a "China Town". .

  The era of Chinese people working hard as laborers is long gone. "Knighthood" and "Salary" are only in line with Chinese preferences.

  Sima Qian recorded in the Historical Records that the prosperity of the world is for the benefit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for the benefit. Now Chinatown has many Chinese restaurants and Chinese supermarkets.

  Maocai from Sichuan and Sichuan, old Beijing hot pot of lamb, northeast roasted noodles, and Cantonese-style morning tea. You won’t be able to repeat the same after a day’s shopping. From time to time, there will be celebrations such as dragon and lion dances.

  At the same time, there are also business places such as unlocking and unlocking of mobile phones, **** shops, Chinese medicine acupuncture, and massage, which some people consider as "witchcraft".

  Credit cards are popular in other places in London, but Chinatown prefers cash. After all, there are many illegal immigrants here.

  "Congratulations to the New Year, the spirit of Longma."

Pomona took Severus's hand and looked up the Chinese posted on the archway. The merchants here were protesting with the big real estate developers, so they covered up the words "London Chinatown". The British New Year has passed. Now, the 2005 Spring Festival falls on February 8. The residents of Chinatown are now preparing for the New Year.

   "What does Ryoma spirit mean?" Severus asked.

   "How do I know." Pomona shrugged, staring at the rows of Chinese restaurants, and couldn't help but say in pain, "Oh my God, what should we eat at noon? There are so many choices!"
