Chapter 2211 The Flower War (One Hundred and Twenty)

Matilda was fine, although she was a little weak due to seasickness and fell asleep after taking the medicine prescribed by the accompanying doctor. Margaret, on the other hand, burst into tears and took a long time to calm down.

This hotel full of "British style" was too simple for aristocratic ladies who were used to living in the palace. Fortunately, every room had a bathroom. After making sure Matilda was asleep, Margaret went to take a bath.

After taking a bath, she found someone standing next to Matilda, so she screamed in fright.

The adjutant and attendants checked their residence and found no one hiding anywhere. Their room was in a corridor with Georgiana. The corridor was guarded by Napoleon's adjutant, but he did not notice anyone passing by. There were also Guards downstairs.

Even though they were watching, they didn't find anyone coming in or out through the window.

So this "thief" either has the ability to become invisible, or Margaret saw it wrong, but Margaret insisted that she saw it right. She saw a figure standing there.

If it weren't for the fact that she had just read the travel book that introduced Wu Yin, Georgiana would not have thought in that direction. Children often play hand shadow games. They put their hands in front of candles and change the shape of their fingers.

If you transform into animals like rabbits and dogs, she might say to Margaret that you mistook the hanging clothes and hats for human figures.

She subconsciously looked at the candle on the bedside table. It was still burning with orange light and had not turned green.

Anyway, after half an hour of commotion, everything returned to calm, and Georgiana returned to the room.

She felt tired and just about to go to sleep when Bonaparte came back.

"Guess why the Chinese want to clarify this matter." He said nonchalantly as he closed the door.

"What?"

"They used dyes to color the tea leaves, and the quality of the tea leaves is no longer what it used to be."

She didn't realize what he said.

"Your fellow countrymen, the biggest importer of tea, the British, although India also has tea, they are still willing to buy better quality."

"This is nonsense, Nick has clarified it," Georgiana said.

"What Nick sees is the good side, and this is what they are eager to show. There is no problem with their tea." Bonaparte poured a glass of water. "Since the implementation of the tax offset regulations, the structure of British products imported from China has changed.

There has been a change, it used to be silk and raw silk, now it is tea, which means that increasing tea revenue will increase their taxes, and in addition to the United Kingdom, Americans also import a lot of tea. They prefer green tea, and Japanese tea is also imported to China.

, its price is cheaper, it mixes Japanese tea and Chinese tea and sells it as higher-priced Chinese tea.”

Georgiana was speechless.

"What Nick saw is probably the best way to fry tea leaves." He added.

"That's why you went out just now to ask?" Georgiana asked.

His somewhat smug expression suddenly turned serious.

Georgiana couldn't help but think of Severus. What would he do if he were here?

Of course, it's possible that like the night when the mountain monster attacked the school, he ran to the basement to check the magic stone, and then was bitten by the three-headed hell dog Luwei...

"It's time for you to rest." He said suddenly.

"Why?" she asked.

"It's very late."

"Do I have to go to bed very late?" she said angrily, "You can't just let me have some nightlife."

"Depends on what kind of nightlife you have," he muttered, taking a sip of water, as if he thought she couldn't hear.

Yes, that's right, other people's nightlife is parties, dances, operas, or going to nightclubs and the like. The nightlife in Paris is so colorful, but look at what kind of "nightlife" she lives.

She lowered her head and glanced at the "culprit"...

"Are you still going to read?" he said dissatisfied.

"Do you know why Nick said that 'lion's milk' is only drunk by 'brave men'?" Georgiana asked.

"What scary story is he going to tell again?" Bonaparte said disdainfully.

Georgiana put the book on her knees and read with the rhythm and tone of a spell:

I, the first word, came out of my pupils, walking barefoot on the intertwined paper. The moment I walked out of the paper, everything you saw had nothing to do with me.

He was silent for a while and then asked "What do you mean?"

"Why don't you think about it with your smart head?" She said with a fake smile, then raised her wand and cast a "Safe Guard", and the transparent protective magic covered them like a glass cover.

"Or do you mean you knew the advisor?" she asked after performing the magic.

He put down the cup in his hand, then walked towards her with a charging step, bending down to take away the book on her lap.

"Matilda hasn't read this book," Georgiana said before he threw the book into the fire. "I'm going to notify the people at the Ministry of Magic and ask them to be more vigilant."

After saying that, she stood up and walked out of the room again.

Miss Carolyn Lestrange was just downstairs from them. In fact, if something happened, it would be much faster to rush up from downstairs than to go around and open the door from the next room. She was surprised that Georgiana came to see her at this time.

she.

"Be careful of shadows." Georgiana said to Lestrange, "It may be a dark creature."

"How is that possible?" Carolan said with a smile.

"I don't know much about it, but I tell you, anyone who comes across it is crazy."

After she finished speaking, she ignored Carolan's reaction and went back upstairs.

Bonaparte still stood by the hearth, motionless as a statue, and the book had not been thrown into the fire.

"Is there anything interesting?" she asked, sitting on the sofa.

He didn't answer.

Georgiana waited patiently, and the only sound in the room was the crackling of firewood.

"Tongue," Bonaparte said after a while.

"What?" she asked confused.

"You are so smart, why don't you use your brilliant brain to think?"

Georgiana curled her lips, which seemed to amuse him, and then he put down the book and said with his hands behind his back, "In an ancient country, there was a king who was terminally ill. His doctor told him that drinking the milk of a lioness was the only hope of survival, so the king

A young man was sent to get the lion's milk, and then the young man took a group of goats on the road. He found a lion's den, in which there was only a lioness feeding her cubs. On the first day, he stood far away and

A slaughtered goat was thrown to the lion, which quickly ate it. The next day he stood closer and threw another goat to him. Eventually they became friends. On the tenth day, he achieved

Some lioness's milk, he fell asleep halfway, and then he dreamed that various parts of his body were quarreling, and his eyes said, it was my credit, if I hadn't pointed the way, he wouldn't have been able to do anything, his legs

Said, if we had not approached the lioness, this man would not have been able to get the milk. Hand replied, if I had not milked the cow, he would not have been able to get the milk. As the various parts competed for credit, Tongue said, I am the best.

Okay, if it weren't for me, what could you do? The other body parts quarreled together, 'How dare you compete with us?', 'What did you do?', the tongue said, 'Sooner or later you will know, by then you will

Then the man woke up and continued on his way. When he came to the king, he announced, 'Your Majesty, this is the dog's milk I brought back to you.'"

"Dog milk?" Georgiana exclaimed.

"The king said so too." He looked at her with his blue eyes. "I want the lion's milk. Take this man away and hang him."

She couldn't help feeling cold all over.

In fact, if you look carefully, those blue eyes are reflecting the firelight of the fireplace, and they look like gold.

"On the way to the execution ground, all parts of the body trembled, and then the tongue said to them, 'If I save you, will you admit that I rule over you?' They all agreed, and then the tongue pointed at the executioner.

He said, "Send me to the king." Then the man was brought to the king. "Why did you order me to be hanged? Don't you know that sometimes female lions are also called bitches?"

Tell him, 'Even if it's dog's milk, you won't die if you drink it, but lion's milk will cure your disease.' Then the king drank lion's milk, and he recovered quickly from his illness, and the young man also received a generous income.

reward, and all parts of the body paid homage to the tongue, honoring it as their ruler, and this was the story the imam told Nick, and only sick people drank the milk of lions.”

Georgiana was about to open her mouth.

"He told Nick that there were many dangerous contents in the book. Before he felt that Nick was ready, the book was placed with him, and it was up to him to decide what to tell Nick." Bonaparte raised the book in his hand.

Yang "Same for you."

She wouldn't say it was unfair, the students at Hogwarts would scream like that after their things were confiscated.

"There is another story. After a heavy rain, a wall was washed down. A poor man found a pot of gold from the collapsed wall. After he became rich overnight and wanted to become smarter, he found a

The wise man asked for advice, so the wise man told him, "Don't rush to deal with difficulties. Take three steps forward and then three steps back. If you go back and forth three times in this way, you will get wisdom." The poor man was skeptical after hearing this, and he was deeply afraid.

The wise man cheated him of his money. The wise man said to him, "Okay, you can go back first. If you think my wisdom is not worth so much money, don't come. If you think it is worth it, just send me money." That night in the dim

In the story, the poor man found that his wife was actually sleeping in the same bed with another man. He was immediately angry and picked up a kitchen knife to kill the man. Suddenly he remembered the wisdom he bought during the day, so he took three steps forward and three steps back.

After doing it three times, the man who was sleeping next to his wife woke up and asked, "Son, what are you doing?" The poor man recognized that it was his mother and was shocked, "If I hadn't bought the wisdom during the day, I would have lost my life tonight."

He killed his mother by mistake, and he sent money to the wise man early the next day."

He suddenly paused when he said this.

Georgiana stood up thoughtfully.

He smiled charmingly, walked over to her very gently, kissed her forehead and said "good night."

"Good night." She said weirdly, then walked to the bed, lifted the quilt and lay in, and then she heard the sound of books being turned.

"I don't think sleeping right now is a good idea." She said desperately. "It might be dangerous."
