Chapter 2227 The Flower War (One Hundred and Thirty Six)

There is an oil painting in St. Petersburg, Russia, which is Rembrandt's Prodigal Son. It was his last work. He died a year after the painting was completed.

Georgiana looked out through the castle window and looked at the sea not far away.

After Newton, the authority of reason replaced the authority of religion. Just as Bonaparte said to Laplace, people are driving God out of the world.

If the prodigal son who squandered all his wealth while out eating, drinking, and having fun came home, and instead of welcoming him home with open arms and tolerance, his father drove him away, what kind of story would that be?

Religious tolerance is the breeding ground for rationality. The earliest religious tolerance appeared in Germany, first between Catholics and Lutherans, and soon between Catholics and Protestant denominations, and then expanded to between theists and atheists.

It is precisely because of this that the purpose of Georgiana's design of the maze has changed from the initial imprisonment.

At Hogwarts, when you need help, you just need to ask for it, but after leaving Hogwarts, you have to distinguish who is worth helping and help those who deserve help.

This is quite difficult. Before the misunderstanding was resolved, Harry Potter saw Severus Snape lying in a pool of blood and did not think about saving him. If he really had that intention, then he would think of Severus Snape.

En's father was also bitten by Nagini.

He didn't try his best, and he didn't even think about trying. He watched Snape die little by little, like the son of an enemy witnessing the death of his enemy, and like he didn't want Snape to feel lonely before he died.

The Huyin people say that people's plight is largely caused by the inability to trace back their lives.

Credence came to Europe from the United States to pursue his "history", and was manipulated by Grindelwald.

He needs help, and so do people like him. From the information she has so far, Hui Yin is not that kind of disorderly and chaotic dark race. It is just that after "flowering", it cannot control itself and will attack the surrounding creatures.

Like Venus flytraps that attack insects for nutrients.

Maybe she got it wrong, but at least she wanted to give it a try. She wanted to design several "channels" so that when dangerous magic like Grindelwald's fire appeared, she could transport it to the place like Nick Flamel did.

Underground, transported to the center of the maze through "pipes", which not only relieves the crisis but also provides it with energy.

But in this way, she had to design a "core" that was strong enough to accommodate such a large amount of energy. When she thought of this, she thought of Elvis Presley's song, that magical Christmas Eve, and her rush

wedding.

She stroked the lace curtains, and she could see that they were made in Calais. Such long lace was very suitable for the veil of the bride's dress. Apart from the Cinderella story, it was another thing that could drive a girl crazy.

Most women would try on dozens of wedding dresses, but her only happy shopping experience was with Narcissa Malfoy, when they were about to empty Lucius Malfoy's bank account.

After the Xianhe Heng hexagram is the Dun hexagram. It seems that according to Zhouyi's understanding, if the husband cheats, the woman should divorce or give in or something.

Divorce is okay, but you can't give up for nothing. You can be so heartbroken that you say "I misjudged you as a person" and then turn around. The French Civil Code promulgated by Napoleon is good at this point. Anyone who is not loyal will be cleansed.

Leaving the house, however, is prone to homicide. In order to avoid losses, the party who wants to divorce may poison, cause accidents, pay for murder, etc., resulting in the death of the spouse, so that there is no need to lose a large amount of wealth due to divorce.

No woman would take the initiative to create opportunities for her husband to get married, especially a "high-spending" woman like Madame Duchatel. Perhaps only the French treasury could withstand her squandering.

But there is no doubt that a well-groomed woman is indeed beautiful, and Josephine used all means to deal with Georgiana.

Napoleon was indeed extremely wealthy, and his property in Italy alone was not a small sum of money, but the origin of this money...

Just then she heard hurried footsteps.

She looked in that direction and found an angry Septimus Malfoy.

"What are you thinking about?" he asked fiercely.

"It depends on what you're asking," Georgiana returned.

"When I asked if the castle belonged to you, why did you say it was to be given to the French Ministry of Magic?"

"What does that mean?" asked Georgiana.

"This was originally a neutral place." Septimus pointed to his feet and said, "But now it is no longer. The French crow is going to change this place into a border administration to deal with stowaways."

"What?" she raised her voice.

"You didn't expect that, did you?" Septimus smiled sinisterly and contemptuously. "If this castle is in your name, and we catch those purgers, we can hold them here for trial. There are dungeons here, okay.

Establish a court."

Georgiana was speechless.

"Do you think this castle is not yours, so you shouldn't take it?"

"Oh~ isn't it?" Georgiana asked angrily.

"You damn saints," Septimus said disdainfully, turned around and left.

Georgiana was so angry that her chest hurt.

This is why, this is why Slytherin is hated!

"Are you okay?" Louvre asked, holding Georgiana on his arm.

Georgiana ignored her, she touched her heart to calm herself down.

Last night she told Louvre what regret meant, and now she regretted it.

Is it too late for her to find the "old French crow" to spit out the meat she has eaten?

She turned to look at Carolan.

Carolan Lestrange seemed to know what Georgiana was going to ask, and shrugged helplessly at her.

"How about finding another castle?" Louvre asked.

"No," said Carolan and Georgiana together, and then fell silent at the same time.

"What's the difference? They're all abandoned castles anyway."

"I can find a new castle for your uncle, and you ask him to give up this castle." Georgiana said to Carolan.

"I don't think he would agree. He has already chosen where his future office will be," Carolan said.

Georgiana stamped her feet in annoyance.

A "normal" woman would have readily accepted it, so that Malfoy could come to her during lunch to settle the matter and everything would fall into place.

The 42nd hexagram of Zhouyi is the benefit hexagram, which means getting benefits, but the front of this hexagram is the loss hexagram. For a person, the most difficult thing to defeat is himself, especially when he is in adversity, his will will inevitably be damaged, which will lead to his mentality.

Unbalanced, acting blindly and getting into trouble, being conquered by one's own selfish desires.

People who have been in a lower position for a long time, or who have suppressed themselves, once they get benefits without restraint and greed, will eventually collapse like a dike due to overflowing, so the next hexagram of Yi hexagram is the Yu hexagram.

But if you don't want the benefits you deserve, you will be in Georgiana's current situation. In practice, a "nerd" may not be as good as someone who doesn't read much.

"Before" I heard that guests were coming to Hogwarts to hold the Triwizard Tournament. She took the house elves to clean up everywhere and polished the rusty armor until it was as shiny as a mirror, but she was not from the castle.

hostess.

The mistress of some families will also personally clean the room and greet distinguished guests, but as the British wizard often said, it is difficult to give the house elves something.

But was it her fault that she developed such a habit? It wasn't Albus who taught her to be thrifty. He even made her drink Polyjuice Potion to stay short and fat.

Albus suppressed his desires too much, and a "saint" and pureblood like him couldn't socialize.

What did Draco call Harry? Saint Potter, he made two explosive sounds in a row without spitting out. This is the result of Draco's aristocratic education.

No wonder the house elves didn't like her as much as Severus, even though she was kind to them.

But what was she to them? Malfoy just ordered the house elves to clean and cook, while she worked with them, and to a certain extent, took their jobs.

You live like a house elf.

This is Georgiana's latest conclusion. Will Queen Catherine be like her?

A German woman became the Russian Tsarina. She didn't even need to listen to politics behind the curtain. Instead, she wore the king's crown, holding the scepter and the orb of royal power.

Well, she doesn't need to wear a crown like Catherine, and she has no interest in the crown of thorns. The same thing happened last time when she went to coordinate the conflict between the villagers of Sevres and the British living in the military camp.

I wanted to make do at the bridgehead, but luckily Sèvres has a gorgeous and spacious conference room.

The same goes for having dinner with Severus at Victor Hugo's house. It's like being a thief. Ordinary men wouldn't put up with a bad "date" like that.

But he humored her and asked her to dance, saving the bad date.

"Wow!"

Georgiana was startled. She turned her head and found Bonaparte with a smile on his face. He suddenly picked her up and spun her around.

This man also danced a silent dance with her.

After about three or four turns, he put her down and said, "Have you had lunch?"

"No."

"It just so happens that I don't have one either. Let's go." He led her and walked through this stately and disrepaired fortress. Not long after, he came to a room, or it used to be a room. Most of it had collapsed, only

There are ruins left, but you can see an excellent view of the sea from here.

There were a lot of fresh fruits on the table covered with tablecloths, including tropical ones. There were also two dinner plates covered with silver covers. He opened one of them...

"What is this?" Georgiana said, looking at the "food".

"You'll know after you taste it," he said awkwardly.

Georgiana looked at him suspiciously.

If any cook had done this, he would have been fired long ago.

"Did you do this?" she said in disbelief.
