Chapter 2267 Poseidon’s Winter Feast (9)

Sanssouci Palace is located in Potsdam, the capital of the state of Brandenburg, in the southwest suburbs of Berlin. It is derived from the French sans-souci, which means carefree. It was based on the sketch of King Frederick II of Prussia from 1745 to 1747.

Design rococo summer palace.

Frederick the Great often played the flute in this palace. In fact, in addition to his political and military talents, Frederick William II was also a composer. He wrote 4 symphonies and more than 100 flute pieces. However, he

But he had an unfortunate childhood. His father, Frederick I, wanted him to be more like a German king instead of playing the flute and reading French books to pass the time. The father and son had a sharp conflict, and he even tried to

Escape from that authoritarian father who was immersed in war and soldier discipline.

When Frederick I died in 1740 and Frederick II succeeded to the throne, it was as if he was finally free. Not only could he play the flute anytime and anywhere, but he could also build a rococo summer palace and play there without any worries.

Goethe once said that as long as a person claims that he is free, he will feel that he is restricted at the same time. If he dares to claim that he is restricted, he will feel that he is free.

Georgiana wondered if those who were rapping in the living room felt that kind of restriction. What Goethe meant by this sentence was that a person's freedom is not absolute and must always be restricted by certain rules.

At the entrance of Sanssouci Palace, there is a windmill that is incompatible with the surrounding environment. This big black windmill "squeaks" every day, making noisy Frederick II who plays the flute in Sanssouci Palace.

There was no peace. Earlier when the palace was being built, the miller was asked to demolish it, but the little miller did not agree. After the palace was built, not only Frederick the Great found the noise annoying, but also the nobles who came to Sanssouci Palace.

It was an eyesore, so Frederick II ordered the windmill to be demolished. Unexpectedly, the little miller refused to let go and went to court to sue the emperor.

This windmill existed in 1736, earlier than Sanssouci Palace, and the gate of the palace was built very close to his home to block the windmill. He originally tolerated it for the sake of the king, but he didn't expect it.

Frederick II actually dismantled the windmill without his consent. As a result, the Berlin court at that time directly ordered Frederick II to compensate for the loss of the small mill and to repair the windmill as it was. Frederick II also did so.

Not only did no one find the newly built windmill ugly, but they thought it was a symbol of Prussian legal system and functioned like a monument.

Georgiana also wanted to deal with it through legal means, but once this matter went to court, it would turn from a scandal into a "monument", or the "Egret Feather Incident". Duke Lauzon had no such intention for Queen Mary. He

He gave the feather to the queen, but people around him said they were having an affair, and then he became the queen's enemy.

Usually men are more generous, and feathers are not as valuable as windmills, but this has nothing to do with magnanimity or property damage. It is inevitable to make a fuss, maybe a friend, maybe the same person, or a relative, it's enough if two people become friends.

If it doesn't succeed, it will inevitably be awkward when we meet in the future, and the mood will no longer be beautiful in an instant.

If the Duke of Lauzun really becomes the queen's lover, and the queen gives birth to his illegitimate son and is treated as the crown prince of France, does he want to go to the guillotine or try another way to die?

The marriage between Marie Antoinette and Louis XVI was a political marriage. At that time, France and Austria wanted to join forces to deal with Prussia, which led to this "diplomatic revolution". Compared to France, Maria Theresa was more eager to deal with Prussia.

The "monster" was Prussia, and Maria Theresa also hoped to use this marriage to put a diplomatic noose on Prussia and prepare to regain Silesia.

Silesia originally belonged to Poland. When Russia, Prussia, and Austria first partitioned Poland, it was divided and belonged to Austria. At that time, Silesia was still a textile city. Under the management of the Prussians, it has become a big steel city.

If Metternich was not clear-headed at the time and thought that France would support Austria in retaking Silesia by agreeing to a certain condition, then Austria and Prussia would be in conflict, and Bonaparte could send troops just like Ney to deal with the civil strife in Switzerland.

Intervening in the Silesian issue, or even the Polish issue, what else could she do if she didn't get out of the way quickly?

Curiosity will kill the cat. Cats have nine lives and she only has one. Although her approach is a bit barbaric, she doesn't care.

Toothbrushes and boyfriends cannot be shared. If you are trying to steal a Hufflepuff girl's boyfriend, you will encounter a scene like this. The two girls are grabbing their hair and getting into a ball. If you don't want this to happen, don't fight for the Hufflepuff girl's boyfriend. Besides, that's it.

Don't Lytterins and Gryffindors also pull their hair and fight?

Oh ~ The wise Ravenclaw who comes from the tranquil lake is always calm and calm.

Why does Luna have the nickname "Crazy Girl"?

She had the same feelings towards Luna, and it was Luna's idea to let Harry and the others ride the Thestral to London, which led to Sirius's death. Luna's mother passed away very early, and she and her father depended on each other for life.

To save Luna, Xenophilius agreed to the Death Eaters' conditions and almost got Harry caught. Later, Luna became a naturalist after graduation and dated Newt's grandson. She was often away from home and he was alone.

People, so they joined a very dangerous organization...

"Madam." Carolan said behind her, "I have something to tell you."

"What's up?"

"It's the Minister of Magic of the Netherlands. He wants to see you." Carolan said, "About the border issue between Belgium and the Netherlands, and the school where students attend."

"What's the problem?" Georgiana asked.

"Will Dutch students go to Hogwarts or Beauxbatons in the future?" Carolan asked.

"Where did they go before?" Georgiana asked.

"I think it's best for him to tell you that your schedule is full these days. Do you have time tonight?" Carolan asked.

"Of course." Georgiana said puzzledly.

Then Carolan walked away.

Then Georgiana began to recall that Hogwarts had never admitted "foreign" students, only foreigners were seen during the Triwizard Tournament, and Beauxbatons and Durmstrang were obviously international schools.

If wizards approached William III of Orange to legislate to protect and recognize wizards, then as William III was the great ruler of the Netherlands, why weren't Dutch wizards required to be sent to England to study?

Originally, she didn't understand William III and thought he was just a weak and sick puppet of the Parliament. If he didn't take the oath of becoming king, the Parliament could find any principality from the Holy Roman Empire and put him on the throne like Hanover.

But a "son of the country" who, despite being persuaded by the Duke of Buckingham, could still say that he died in the last trench of the Republic, and also ordered the Amsterdam embankment to be dug, and if the British and French forces dared to continue to advance, Amsterdam and the Netherlands would die with them.

", "heroes who protect the country" are not weak no matter how you look at them.

Scorched earth warfare generally involves using fire to destroy all materials that may be used by the enemy. However, the Dutch's "scorched earth" method involves flooding with water. If the cost of rebuilding the dam, pumping water, and dredging is higher than the expected benefits of the war, this battle will

Is it still necessary to fight?

"Is it that obvious?" she complained. Who knew that she was going to establish the Belgian Ministry of Magic? She also came to discuss the issue of national borders.

Do the borders of wizards and Muggles overlap? It would be very annoying if the borders of wizards and Muggles changed like that of Muggles. After all, wizards still have so much research to do. If she goes back one day, she will find Xenophy to stay.

Let's take a look at the stone he found in the labyrinth of the Alps. Could it be related to Wu Yin?
