Chapter 857 Dynasty Beauty

When it comes to mistresses, few married women will have a good impression of them, and even men will associate them with moral corruption.

These women often treat men as cash machines. The business that the couple managed to run was made heavily in debt by her. An honest official took bribes to pay for her expenses, and they often live for appearance and vanity.

, can be easily taken advantage of.

Behind almost every beauty trap there is a man or a smart woman manipulating it. Beauty and fame can make people unable to see the essence behind something.

These beautiful monsters are greedy, but men still want them to give you more.

Perhaps he envied the emperor's life because he could have many wives and concubines, and the women also worked hard to gain his favor. He didn't have to work hard to please and pursue those women as he did when he was a commoner.

A Hermes bag costs 100,000 euros. It takes an engineer 5 years without food or drink to afford it. Being an emperor is different. You can buy it if you want it.

The word hermes represents Hermes, the god of alchemy. Hermetics also believe that only by maintaining a neutral view of everything in front of you can you not be disturbed and shaken by the ups and downs of the real world.

Only then can we overlook the overall situation from a higher level.

Madame Pompadour was not actually very beautiful, but she was not an ordinary woman who used her beauty to seduce the king.

The Elysee Palace, the current French presidential palace, was a gift from Louis XV to Madame de Pompadour. At that time, porcelain from China was a very expensive luxury product. Madame Pompadour bought a porcelain workshop and wanted to make porcelain instead of China.

Porcelain porcelain.

Men always want to compete with each other, and Louis XV wanted to create fine porcelain that surpassed Meissen and Driston. Although France lacked kaolin, one of the necessary ingredients for the production of hard porcelain, their soft porcelain could be used in

It is fired at a lower temperature, so it can also be painted with various colors and glazes, making the style richer and more vivid. In the end, the Sèvres porcelain factory named its product after "Royal", which was used in Napoleon's second wedding.

Porcelain from the Sèvres porcelain factory.

This may be the difference between Eastern and Western cultures. Both Justinian and Louis XV were trying to get rid of their dependence on Chinese luxury goods such as silk and porcelain, and were trying to make their own domestic products. Tourists from the East seemed to have a lot of money.

With all the money left, going to a luxury store to buy something is like buying something for Christmas and just take it away without looking at the price. Why don’t they, like Madame de Pompadour, find a way to make it in their own country?

Voltaire, the "conscience of Europe", said that silk, printing, and gunpowder were the three great inventions that saved Europe.

What Madame Pompadour did was essentially no different from what Emperor Justinian did. She was a wise woman. Perhaps it was precisely because of this that she was able to be Louis XV's mistress for 20 years, even if she later became the mistress of Louis XV.

A younger and more beautiful mistress who also gave birth to a child for Louis XV.

In early 1745, the 24-year-old Jeanne began to implement a series of carefully arranged coincidences, waiting for Louis XV to take the bait. The most famous of these actions was undoubtedly her many "accidental encounters" with the king in the forest near the palace.

Jeanne, who was well versed in art and fashion, often sat in a carriage dressed elegantly yet charmingly and appropriately, and happened to appear when the king was hunting.

The romantic atmosphere of the dark green forest, the charming pink girl, the fairy-tale light blue carriage, and the rumors of "the most beautiful woman in Paris" carefully planned by Voltaire, Louis XV finally fell off as expected.

A trap that has been laid for a long time.

On February 25, 1745, Jeanne appeared at a masquerade ball at the wedding of a nobleman. The king played the motionless tree, and Jeanne played the role of a shepherdess. Her figure was running around throughout the dance. The dance ended.

Finally, the itchy king could no longer hold back. No one knew what they talked about under the moonlight that night. But after that night, ministers would often see Jeanne's light blue carriage appearing on the road leading to the Palace of Versailles.

On the road.

Coincidentally, on December 8, 1744, one month before Madame de Pompadour officially started her plan, Louis XV's then-mistress suddenly died mysteriously.

The freedom that Voltaire pursued was mainly political freedom, which meant liberating people from the shackles of religious authority and monarchy. He advocated equality for everyone and the right to pursue survival and happiness. True freedom is not about doing whatever you want.

Freedom is conditional on what you do. During the French Revolution, freedom had no restrictions. Human beings could do terrible things to human beings, and no one felt that it was wrong. This kind of freedom is destructive.

Voltaire was once pursued by Louis XV. Madame de Pompadour was not only an enthusiastic patron of art at the time, but also a protector of culture. She was an enthusiastic organizer of salons and was highly respected at the time. She was the leading pioneer of the Enlightenment.

They all gathered together. Whether it was Voltaire or Diderot, Rousseau often discussed ideas and culture together in the salon she held. Voltaire was her friend, and the rather radical Diderot, although he was very fond of the Rococo

Although he was interested in art, he still respected and respected Madame de Pompadour.

Both Rousseau and Wagner once made a living by copying music scores. That day, Pomona saw a music score printer in the exhibition room of Gianluca's house. If you use it to print music scores, it is of course faster than copying them by hand. However, neither Rousseau nor Wagner had any problems.

I can earn a living and continue to create.

Different people often have completely opposite evaluations of this legendary woman. Some enthusiasts say that she is enthusiastic about cultural undertakings, while others wantonly slander her and think that women interfere in national governance and harm the country.

Voltaire's evaluation of this legendary woman was "She has a fair soul and a fair heart. Such a beauty is rare in the world."

The Rococo style actually originated from China. Mrs. Pombotron always admired the Chinese goldfish with their big tails and imitated the beautiful and charming Chinese stretch embroidery. The main colors of Rococo art, green and yellow, are the two major characteristics of Chinese arts and crafts.

color.

Whether it is a man or a woman, there are few people who do not follow the trend. Madame Dupin, who once met Rousseau in her bedroom, also opened a salon and invited guests such as Voltaire and Rousseau who appeared in Madame Pompadour's salon. Pomer

Na didn't know how many books she had read, but she probably had not read Montesquieu's "The Spirit of the Laws", which was banned by the church.

The relationship between France and the church has always been good. It was through the divine right of kings of the church that Pippin and his son legalized their actions of stealing the country from the Merovingian royal family. Montesquieu's book talks about the benefits and harm of the republic.

It was the interests of the aristocratic class headed by Louis XV. If the state directly banned printing, it would be noticed by interested people, but it was different if the church banned it. It is inexplicable that scientists like Galileo were persecuted. Does the earth revolve around the sun or the sun revolves around the earth?

What impact does it have on your life?

The church is like a hysterical woman who bans all books and no one cares about it at all, but Madame Pompadour has read this book, at least it has that writing on her portrait.

Louis XV's queen has been ignored. She is simply a decoration. The young girls are provoking Madame de Pompadour.

Either relying on her youth and beauty, or thinking that she would one day become the empress dowager after giving birth to a child, she completely forgot about the fact that illegitimate children have no inheritance rights.

Louis XIV and Emperor Kangxi were very friendly, and a large number of Jesuits became technical ministers within the Qing court. Tang Ruowang was one of them. He also persuaded Kangxi to ban human martyrdom.

In the later years of Kangxi's reign, the "Nine Dragons Seizing the Heir" occurred, and Louis XIV handed the throne to his great-grandson, instead of his son or grandson.

The issue of inheritance has always been a headache. Although Louis XV was not at peace with the queen, they still had a son. Louis XVI was the third son of the crown prince Louis Ferdinand.

The so-called daydreams are unrealistic. Although Louis XV is as luxurious as his great-grandfather, he is not without brains. Once the illegitimate son becomes the king, Europe will start fighting among itself for inheritance like the Chinese royal family.

It is difficult to control one's anger, especially when a little girl provokes an "old woman". Why should a woman embarrass a woman?

There is a goddess of revenge in the West, and there is a proverb in the East that the heart of a woman is the most poisonous. If a woman treats a woman more harshly than a man treats a man, both Lu Pheasant and Wu Zetian were so angry that they lost their minds. Cixi was a little better, and she sent Concubine Zhen to the throne.

Gone into the well.

The scary thing about women is that they look so innocent, but women who seem innocent are not really innocent. It is relative for a woman to see a woman sober. Jealousy can also blind a woman.

After Letaquist's article was published, Hermione received a lot of threats.

The more primitive she is, the easier she is to be exploited, and she is really good at sowing discord.

The democratic system that seems to be a great and progressive one also has drawbacks. In a democratic system, the people are slaves to public opinion. Voldemort is clearly back, but Harry is slandered as a liar by the newspapers. No one believes him except Ron Weasley.

A small conflict over a competition in grade school was quickly resolved, and they are still "good brothers."

On the contrary, her friendship with Lily ended because of the man who acted arbitrarily on her.

She was jealous of Lily because because of Harry's publicity, she became Mr. Love Saint's recognized "wife", but she herself would never be able to see the light of day.

But it's also possible that Lily is jealous of her, and after she lets go of her childish prejudices about dark magic, she'll also see "Sif" correctly.

Unlike any other mistress in the past, Madame de Pompadour had the right to accompany Louis XV hunting, playing poker, and participating in various social activities. Louis XV even made coffee for her himself.

Madame de Pompadour knew very well the frivolous nature of Louis XV and knew that she could not control him. So could she conquer him?

He is an affectionate person and has always loved Lily, even now the red-haired Lily is still in his heart.

On the contrary, she, the woman who was alive and nominally his wife, was like his mistress.

In an indescribable rage, she stretched out her nails and scratched his back hard.

He howled in pain.

"what are you doing!"

She didn't know what to say, and she had no other words to describe it except happy.

Then she burst out laughing.

"Crazy woman!" he complained, making her lie down to ensure that her hands would not scratch him again.

Only things that you find interesting will be done over and over again. If you are unhappy, even interesting things will be boring.

Her palms were covered in sweat from his back, which reminded her of the wet fingerprints left by Zodiac.

Like Severus, he was also a lonely man.

Although it was a pity, she really couldn't help, even though he desperately called for help, and she heard his cry for help.
