Chapter 1269 “Black Transaction”

Women should stay away from politics.

This is what Josephine said herself, but she actually did not do exactly what she said, just like Leon himself is not really a French national hero.

There are so many similarities between this couple.

It is a man's nature to be warlike. Since Napoleon has decided to attack Prussia, no one can make him change his mind. Fortunately, he is not one of the lawyers of the Directory. He knows not to start a war easily, provoke enemies everywhere, and be aggressive with others.

beat.

He will make alliances, win over and divide, business is only part of it. His stepson and brigade commander of the ruling guard, Eugene, will marry the Bavarian princess. The overall situation of the friendship between France and Germany has been determined.

He gave Georgiana German sweets, so Georgiana would also give Germany some sweets. The Germans would definitely be invited to the next "Pheasant Feast" held in Rambouillet.

They may not launch a crusade, but they can deal with Prussia together. Otherwise, why would Beethoven, a German composer, write a heroic symphony for the First Consul of France?

Georgiana was a British woman. She loved peace and hated war, but she was not stupid enough to persuade Napoleon to give up declaring war on Prussia.

A peaceful environment is conducive to the development of commerce, which is beneficial to mercantilist Britain, just as Cecilia made the Sultan treat Venice more favorably diplomatically.

It happened that Britain also produced thoroughbred horses. Georgiana could buy British thoroughbred horses to pull her cart, and she could also form her own female cavalry guard.

The female cavalry is basically just a decoration in the eyes of male soldiers, but the female cavalry is indeed a beautiful city scenery. It's all a joke anyway, holding a masquerade party like Marie Antoinette might as well be used for this, men and women

Equality is the continuation of the spirit of the Great Revolution, and women also wore men's clothing during the Revolution.

Laughing and laughing, women's tea parties are far less serious than men's gatherings, as if they are completely unaware of the political storm on the other side.

If a man in the family dies here, no matter how good friends the women are, it will be difficult for them to see each other again. This is also one of the many misfortunes for women.

When a person disappears from another person's life, the things he or she leaves behind will become the sustenance of missing people.

The scent of that person often remains on the clothes, and it feels like he is still around. This is a different feeling from a lively love.

The problem is that Georgiana doesn't have anything left by Severus, except for the black swan pendant.

He is like a phantom, a non-existent lover, just like the nuns in the convent, an illusion caused by her too longing for love.

There is no magic in this world.

Another world full of magic and surprise is a fantasy world similar to Peter Pan. It's time for her to learn to "grow up".

After the ladies left with all the news, Georgiana sat alone in the garden.

As a human woman, she will definitely face the problem of aging. Veela does not change so fast, but it is also human nature to like the new and dislike the old. A man who is unwilling to abandon his original wife after he becomes "great", even if he does not

Being so dedicated and devoted is much better than those men who have little success and then find a wife that everyone admires.

What kind of wife is admired by everyone?

Young, beautiful and virtuous.

Georgiana would try her best to help Josephine get the religious ceremony she wanted. The Habsburg princess he later married did little to help him except give him a son.

Although she was not as spendthrift as the Deficit Queen, she did not provide any support for Napoleon. Mary at least found ways to help Louis XVI escape, while Louisa was focused on the interests of the Habsburg family. She did not put herself at all.

As Napoleon's wife.

She never thought that one day she would analyze Napoleon's love history like this. Maybe this was another daydream of a woman who loved fantasy.

She is a lonely woman and he is a lonely man. They both have the bondage of marriage. The right thing to do is to turn around and leave instead of taking the risk of being cast aside by stealing someone else's wife.

He is not a knight, and knights would not do such immoral things.

Paris is not Egypt, and there is no telling how unpleasant the scandal would be. She couldn't hear those gossips in this secluded farm palace.

He was indeed taking care of her, just like a husband takes care of his wife. He gave her living expenses and planned to let her go to his fief to take care of the properties.

Some women are the thunder horses of the cavalry and can bring glory to men.

Some women drafted horses and worked to bring food to people.

The heavy draft horse works so hard that no one feels sorry for it, but the thunder horse is relaxed and beautiful, and some people brush it and feed it champagne.

Sometimes we cannot blame women for being too realistic and looking for someone with a certain material foundation.

The key is that there are people who are only willing to share the hardships, not the joys. When it is finally time to enjoy the fruits of victory, they kick the people who have been with them all the way. Who is willing to do such a stupid thing.

Even if it were a man, he wouldn't do it. The Directory saw peace coming, and the soldiers who put down the rebellion were useless. If they hadn't declared war everywhere later and lost the war, Napoleon wouldn't have left everything in Egypt and ran away.

Return home.

No matter how corrupt and squandered the Directory is, it will not dry up a country's treasury. Only expenditures such as military spending will cause huge deficits.

The usual way to deal with deficits is to print money, but France uses coins, which are not as easy to print as British banknotes. But France has such things as banknotes. This is the domain of financiers. The ruling Directory is actually controlled by these banks.

The family is under control.

What's worse than empty talk is delusion. The army is still the same army, but the generals are different generals. Napoleon's war seems easy, and men who want to overpower his majesty want to try it themselves. As a result, everything Napoleon conquered in Italy

All the results were lost in a short period of time.

During the Second Italian War, he incurred a debt of 65 million. This requires honest work. How long will it take for him to work for a salary of 3 francs a month before he can pay it off?

The difference between being capable and being incompetent is this. If Severus were to do this, he probably wouldn't be as good as Napoleon. His areas of expertise are different from Napoleon's.

In a woman's mate selection criteria, it is also natural to choose the strong. Now that Pomona is suppressing this nature, she is so sad that she wants to faint.

Severus loved to cry, and she dreamed that he cried again.

She wanted to lift her arms and hug him to tell him to stop crying, but a chain tied her up.

She could see the sun, but she was clearly at night, and it was as dark and cold as the underworld.

Can she really leave with her own strength?

A wizard should not believe in God, especially God. The Inquisition consisted of witches and wizards who were unjustly imprisoned, and those who judged them were clergy.

But now she longs for a little light. She is Draco Malfoy's godmother, although not as powerful as his godfather.

'You shouldn't take something away from a living person if you want it for yourself, Pluto.'

She heard a voice saying that she couldn't tell if it was another hallucination of hers.

Then she saw Lyle, who was in front of an altar. There was the body of a black horse on the ground, and its blood was flowing everywhere.

"I can make a deal with him." She heard an indistinguishable voice say, "I know he still has a beloved woman, and I can bring that woman's soul back to him from the underworld."

"I'm just afraid he won't agree," Lyle said.

"Negotiations are not successful in one go, otherwise what would you do?" the voice said, "I will reward you if it is done. If he accepts it, it will benefit all of us."

This cold tone was chilling, and she began to feel cold from the inside out.

Only Severus's cry made her feel a little warm, but what if he chose to accept the conditions?

In his later years, Theseus gradually felt old and lonely, and the friendship he forged with the young hero Pirithous aroused in his heart the desire to embark on a bold and reckless adventure. Pirithous's wife died soon after their marriage.

Now that Theseus was a widower, the two of them went on an adventure together, hoping to get each a wife for himself.

At that time, the daughter of Zeus and Leda, who later became famous as Helen, was still very young. She grew up in the palace of her stepfather, King Tyndareos of Sparta. But she had already become the most beautiful girl of that era.

, her charm is known to all the Greeks.

When Theseus and Delito arrived in Sparta, they saw Helen dancing in the temple of Artemis. Their love for her was kindled in their hearts. They forgot about it and snatched it from the temple.

Take the princess and take her first to Tegea in Arcadia.

Here they drew lots for her, and both parties agreed amicably that whoever won would help the other to win another beautiful woman. Theseus won the lot, so he took the girl back to Afidna in the Attica region and gave her to her.

He gave his mother Ethra to another friend to protect him. Then Theseus and his comrades continued the expedition. Pirithous decided to kidnap Hades' wife Persephone from Hades to compensate for what he had not received.

Helen's loss. But the plan failed, and Theseus and Pirithous were condemned to eternal imprisonment in Hades.

This was a bad idea, and while James Potter wasn't as scary as Hades, it was against the "rules."

What a troublesome man.

She soon woke up from her fugue-like hallucinations and lay limply on a bench in the garden, as if waiting to be picked up.

She hates being treated like a princess waiting to be rescued!

She tried her best to sit up, but found that she couldn't, but her voice could still be controlled.

"Mirror...mirror," she said. "Eris...mirror."

"What did she just say?" said a slightly unfamiliar man.

"Are you there? Pomona!" Severus asked.

She was about to answer when she found Leon appearing.

"You will get sick if you sleep outside at night." He said very gently, "Let's go back to the palace."

She couldn't say no. The Corsicans themselves were not strong, but they had many strong soldiers. One of the Guardsmen picked her up.

Maybe it was the same that day at the Luxembourg Palace.

At that time, he acted like a heroic knight saving the beauty. If only he had always been so polite.
