Chapter 1891 giantslayer (35)
In 1649, Russia promulgated the "Encyclopedia of Laws" stipulating: "The feudal lord is fully responsible for his peasants in court, and has the right to judge, flog, and interrogate peasants in the territory, and put them in shackles and chains. Except for treason against the tsar. In addition to acts, farmers are not allowed to report their masters; when the landlord goes bankrupt, the debts of the landlord must be repaid by the farmers; the landlord has the right to interfere with the farmers' property, marriage and other family affairs."
This means that the feudal lord can not only uphold justice for the peasants, but also exercise the power of the first night. The French word "Droitduseigneur" means the power of the thigh.
The peasant was a staunch supporter of the revolution and was also the main source of troops for Napoleon's army. It was extremely important to him to obtain the support and goodwill of the peasants. If it is replaced by a more democratic term, the peasants are Napoleon's votes, and the majority of the French population is the agricultural population. According to the French voting method, as long as this majority supports Napoleon's reelection, he can serve for another 10 years.
This is probably the freshest "news" that Haji has heard. Bonaparte has not passed the constitution to assume power for life.
However, he changed his mind. Napoleon should abdicate for the first time after more than 10 years. At that time, there was no organized resistance in the country, or the resistance was not strong. The senior officials of the provinces quickly surrendered, unlike the period of the Great Revolution. Then resist to the death.
Too many people died in the expedition to Russia, but there is also a big reason for his personal madness about war. A man loves three things, power, money and women. If money and women do not love power, then he loves power. The roaring lion obediently lay on a woman's lap like a big cat, but he really fell asleep?
Haji looks at the beautiful garden in front of him. There are many people playing, walking or riding horses here. It looks civilized and harmonious, and it is indeed easy for people to relax their vigilance.
The English name of the colony is colony, and its etymology comes from the ancient Roman "Colonia". The original meaning was a village guarding the coast of the Apennines by Roman citizens and their families.
At the beginning of the colony, there was no suzerain country to exert influence and the will to expand the sphere of influence, only the pure motive of pursuing wealth. The colonies of North America, Spain, and Portugal were the first to occupy coastal cities.
The Ottoman Empire occupied the traditional Mediterranean trade roads. When city-states such as Genoa and Venice monopolized Mediterranean trade, they imposed heavy taxes on goods, often exceeding 5 times the value of the goods, and Europeans were overwhelmed.
Columbus lobbied Queen Isabel. I can bypass the Mediterranean and go directly to the East to retrieve spices and silks, because he firmly believes that the earth is round and can still reach the world of gold and spices described by Marco Polo in another direction.
As a result, they did not find India. Instead, they found the New World. Large amounts of gold and silver were moved back to Spain and Portugal, but neither of these two countries became rich.
France does not have a navy to compete with Britain, so their merchant ships cannot go to sea. The development of Peru is just a dream. But thinking about it in a different direction, perhaps it was precisely because the British felt that the French wanted to open up the New World, so they wanted to maintain long-term peace with them, and thus became paralyzed.
This level of game is not something that Haji could overheard in a garden. In the choice between Jiangshan and women, most men would choose Jiangshan, and the professor's wife would be very dangerous in this kind of thing. .
The French have developed so much in Egypt, it is not that anti-colonial citizens have driven them out.
Santo Domingo does not want to be ruled by France at all, even from the eyes of people like Haji, they know that their future is bleak. The Americans can build ships and gunpowder. Countries without sea rights are restricted in every way. Napoleon's promotion of sugar beets has not yet planned to abandon the tropical colony of Santo Domingo.
He is not like Louis XVI, who would constantly invest in the War of Independence. The other is the expenses of the palace and the harem, which are also the responsibility of the civilians. The decapitated queen Mary became the "deficit queen", and no one mentioned the military deficit. It's up.
It's not uncommon to push the fault on a woman. It would be nice if "Georgiana" was as keen on parties and gardens as Marie Antoinette, but she kept it simple, and spies were the best excuse.
This is a dream, a dream made up of many people. If she continues to indulge in this world, she will soon be swallowed up.
It's time to wake up, Napoleon is dead, he can't come alive again, he can only continue to conquer the world in this world. In the real world, he was over in Waterloo, the British and the Bourbon royal family won, but Louis XVIII implemented a constitutional monarchy, and Charles X planned to restore it completely.
Haji couldn't help but smile. Charles X was the Count Artois who built this small garden.
If Haji is a minister like Lyon Cour, he would also say: Times have changed, Your Majesty, we can't go back anymore.
Napoleon thought of smallpox, but did not think of yellow fever. Haji often heard in the army that we must pay attention to mosquitoes. The aegypti mosquitoes infect many diseases. Although the winter is very cold in the area, there are many in the summer forest. Mosquitoes are almost densely packed and overwhelming. At that time there were penicillin and other drugs, and Haji couldn't imagine what it would be like for soldiers in the 18th century to go to the tropics without these drugs.
That is another kind of **** that Haji didn't want to go to. He would rather go to Russia in the icy and snowy land, and participate in the meat grinder in the Battle of Lüzen, at least he can fight to death.
He doesn't want to bring "dog tags". He is human. In fact, those who go to the New World have a simple idea, which is to get rid of the nobles, princes and kings riding on their backs.
He wants to sleep on a comfortable bed, he wants to have a light telephone, and he can go to convenience stores and supermarkets to buy things, and he does not need to walk more than an hour to the town. This is the life of a civilized person.
He is loyal to whoever can make him live a life like that. Although Haji doesn't want to be a mercenary, Eastern Europe is basically like this. There is no development there. Men can only go out to fight as a mercenary.
Fortunately, he has a son, and he met a wizard, so Haji can no longer be a stray dog. He wants to be a watchdog for the house in South Kensington.
The son has chosen not to be an ordinary person. He and Fiona have nothing to do with him. The same goes for following his son.
The prosperity in front of him is not attractive to Haji. A person must have a solid judgment, and he will not have a long life with Bonaparte. You think it is spreading civilization, but in the eyes of others it is aggression. It is said to be very kind. 'S woman is now acting for the tiger, and she will definitely be retributed.
Take her back in the future. Haji's job is to look at her and stop her from running around. Why do you want so much wealth? Isn't it enough to live in South Kensington?
The professor called Bonaparte in this world Pluto. No matter how magnificent the Pluto's palace is, it is in hell. Even if Pluto snatches Persephone, the daughter of the goddess of grain, to the underworld, how many flowers and plants can she make? What's more, he already has Josephine who loves roses and cherishes plants.
Let's go ahead. Whose marriage doesn't have a hurdle?
Haji sighed. He had seen those well-dressed nobles instigate bodyguards with the look of "I raise you". It is not bad to be as indifferent as a professor. As for him to guard against Haji... that woman is a woman. You really should be cautious about the disaster, although the little one really doesn't see any attraction in Haji's eyes.
He thought of Fiona when she was young. She was also considered beautiful in the village. In the beautiful place of Eastern Europe, she can reach this level is already a high standard.
"God bless me, tell me where is the way out?" Haji said silently, and then walked to the rose gallery.
"How do you feel?" Lucius Malfoy asked with a smirking smile.
"Dizzy." Severus said with difficulty.
"You'll get used to it soon." Lucius said, "This is a family heirloom of our family. It is used as a disguise when someone in our family doesn't have the power to awaken the bloodline."
"Thank you for telling me." Severus said angrily.
"The northern Europeans refer to kings and lords as armband givers, and armbands are gifts for followers." Lucius triumphantly said, "Only the patriarch can wear armbands, and the secret of this armband Only the patriarch knows."
Severus stood up straight, his eyes changed and turned golden.
"Grey hair and golden eyes, you really look like a devil now." Lucius teased.
"Thank you for your compliment." Severus smiled carelessly and said, "I can see the wrinkles on your face now."
Lucius stopped smiling.
"I'm almost fifty years old, what's weird about a little wrinkle!"
"I met three vampires just now, and they haven't grown old at all."
"Who wants to be a vampire?" Lucius shook his head with disgust, as if smelling something terrible.
"You know, the more infectious diseases in a society, the smaller the damage caused by infectious diseases, and the cost is much smaller than the cost of being caught off guard by an infectious disease. This is a way of Muggle evolution." Si said, "The most serious infectious disease we know is dragon pox."
"I know that disease." Lucius said coldly.
"Our approach is to destroy the Peruvian Fangtooth, instead of symbiosis with the virus. If some disease develops, it can be transmitted between Muggles and wizards." Severus pointed to his head. "You Believe in freedom and equality?"
"You're kidding," Lucius said.
"Those who come from the Muggle world believe this, of course not including the Dark Lord." Severus said, "They may be right in theory, but in practice it is impossible to achieve. No matter what I agree with Napoleon. , That is equality but not freedom."
"Do you want to be equal to the fairies, werewolves, and house elves?" Lucius asked rhetorically.
"He is a smart man." Severus said, "but his suit is not suitable for us. Unless I want to experience another goblin rebellion, we have gone through a great battle and lost a lot of people. We can't lose any more."
"so?"
"Free but unequal, the Anti-Dark Magic League has defeated the pure bloodists who discriminated against them. They do not accept inequality, but they do not accept that they are oppressed."
"Tsk." Lucius exclaimed, "Love Saint, what you just said will make many people sad."
"The theory of evolution keeps God away from this world, so that humans are no longer unique in it." Severus said indifferently, "Don't you think humans are unique?"
Lucius did not answer.
"Even the dragon must set up a protected area, and the giant is also hidden in the deep mountains and old forests, unless we give up the top position of the food chain and become the target of hunting, just like this!"
After he finished speaking, he waved his magic wand, and a magical front flew into the forest invisibly.
"I'll just say how it smells." Lucius chanted "It turned out to be an occult monster."
Severus looked at the corpse in the distance. It was small but had very sharp claws.
"Thank you for the present." Severus said.
"That's not a gift!" Lucius said, "I lent you it!"
Severus ignored him, strode forward, and opened the door of the greenhouse.
There is a black hole in , it seems that this place is regarded as a kind of exhibition hall, and there are many souvenirs.
He walked in, picked up a small portrait, and a gorgeously dressed woman was smiling at him holding a rose.
This is a portrait of Marie Antoinette, not a sketch of her sitting in a prison car. At that time, her hair was cut so that it was easy to be cut off. She used a turban to cover the messy cut hair, and she insisted not. See the painter.
"Young and gentle flowers, under the turbulent fate, under a strange sky like me." Crimean said, "In a place far away from the world, I began to take care of their lives and their studies. This It's a poem written by Racine. Does it remind you of anyone?"
Severus looked at Crimean.
"Compared to a great man or a hero, I think he would be more willing to be a teacher, just like that poem wrote."
If it's not enough to see "real" with your own eyes, what should we do? Get involved?
Albus Dumbledore returned to Hogwarts after defeating Grindelwald, to a place far away from the world, with the children.
Perhaps just because he wants to maintain a pure soul.
"He is a great wizard, you shouldn't deny that." Severus said to Bellatrix, and she hissed with disdain.
If Grindelwald's plan to rule the world is crazy, isn't it crazy that Muggles rule the world?
If you don't know your guilt, you won't be apologetic. The wizards who fought with Grindelwald to undermine the secrecy laws still felt that they were preventing Muggles from destroying the world, just as Henry Potter felt that he was preventing something by participating in World War I.
Severus took away the portrait of Marie Antoinette. He did not pay, so he was considered a thief.
This is really heinous, if in the 19th century it should be hanged or exiled to a colony.
"You have mercy on her?" Lucius asked.
"Young and gentle flowers, under the turbulent fate, under a strange sky like me." Severus said.
As soon as his words fell, a wonderful change took place in the greenhouse. Warm sunlight came in from the glass windows, and it was no longer a black-hole rose garden.
"It seems that someone helped us." Lucius looked at the people walking by the window and said that they were all dressed in 18th century clothes, looking like they were filming, or they were nostalgic people from that era.
"Let's go," Severus said, pulling the cloak and leaving the greenhouse.
