We rode horses to a beautiful lake,
The water of the lake is as clear and transparent as polished sapphire.
The lake reflects the distant mountains and the girls picking flowers by the lake.
May is the month of love, and Carnival is a day for men and women to gather and socialize.
The Maypole symbolizes the trinity of spring, power and love.
Unmarried girls of the right age will wear all kinds of colorful flowers picked from the lakeside on their heads and pin them on their dresses.
Like an artist.
When we arrived, there were already many young men on the other side of the lake.
They shouted at the girls picking flowers, hoping someone would spot them.
I searched among those girls, hoping to see the moon,
But I heard cheerful music,
The flute, leather drum and bells were playing fiercely, and someone was dancing to the music.
It is peaceful and safe here, and there is no sense of war or uneasiness at all.
Knight Wilkie said to me: We have a custom here,
Food for the poor is marked up at a high price during Carnival, while food for the rich is worthless.
Another is the Holy Spirit Parade, in which poor rural people wearing masks will dance while walking.
Devils and undead will be mixed in, and passers-by will give gifts to those who dance with masks.
After praying and taking the gifts, they will disappear.
I asked: What if I don’t give it?
Wilkie said: These undead spirits and demons will break into people's daily lives, causing crops to fail and livestock to become sick.
Poor people often paint their masks to look like the people they hate,
The poor have taken the place of the rich, the rich have taken the place of the poor, everything is upside down.
I watched the different customs and customs from the sidelines,
Maybe the moon is beautiful enough for me to stay, but are these subjects worth staying?
Don't worry about them, they can be leisurely and contented,
They dream of peace, dream as they please,
When the horn of war blows, I wonder if they can still be as carefree in the mountains and forests as they are now.
I pulled the reins and led the villains towards the palace,
The echo of the neighing of the war horses echoed on the lake,
Shaking the valleys, shaking the mountains and forests.

"Look at this!" Gong Saiyi said, pointing to a line of words in the book.
That was handwritten in English:
The golden age has returned,
The world order will be recreated.
The unjust rich are all afraid;
The common people are happy.
"What is this?" Severus asked.
"Don't you know? This was sung at the coronation ceremony of Richard the Lionheart." Gong Saiyi said.
Severus raised an eyebrow and flipped through the book.
"This is the list of people who participated in the signing of the Abolition of Slavery Act in London in 1807." Gongseyi said, "Guess who I found?"
"who?"
"Louis Henri Marie de Montmorency, don't you think this name sounds familiar to you?"
Severus was stunned for a moment.
"The inventor of the love potion is named Laverne de Montmorency, and she is also from the Montmorency family." Gong Saiyi said to the Potion Professor, "I remember she seemed to be a nurse at Hogwarts. Studying at Vinclaw College.”
"so?"
"The Duke of Montmorency is a French nobleman. Because his family was involved in a rebellion, he was deprived of his title. Later, he became the son-in-law of the Montmorency family. The third generation of Prince Condé received the title again. The original Montmorency The title of Duke was changed to Duke Angkiang Duke, has since become the hereditary title of the Condé family, that is, the Duke of Angkian who was shot by Napoleon Bonaparte. I remember that he ran near Baden at that time, which means that Laverne de Montmorency and The Bourbons are related by blood.”
"What!" Severus couldn't help shouting.
"She invented the love potion, and there were several kinds. I remember you said that Tom Riddle's mother gave old Tom Riddle a love potion, and then she gave birth to him. Is it possible? The Gaunt family was once married to the Montmorency family, and they were in England at the time, so Lavern attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.”
"There are many wizards born in France who also study in the UK. Only Muggles will wait for the owl's letter. Students who have been in the wizarding world can choose their own school." Severus regained his composure and said calmly.
"Well, Laverne was born in 1823. It happened to be 1834 when she was 11 years old. I remember that the Hogwarts Express was repaired when Mortalian Gamble was in office. In 1835, she was taken by Leicester. The Ranch family took over. Is it possible that Laverne was one of the first passengers of the Hogwarts Express?"
"How do I know this?" Severus said impatiently, finding a place to sit down.
"If I remember correctly, Firth Lestrange resigned because he tried to close the Department of Mysteries, right?" Gongsey asked.
Severus said nothing.
"Let us assume that the mummies under the July Column were not buried by Napoleon Bonaparte, but by the British during the Bourbon Restoration to around 1830, and the person who instructed them to do so was the Duke of Montmorency. None of them wanted Napoleon to be resurrected."
"Don't you think that's a crazy assumption?" Severus asked.
"That's why I came to you in such a hurry." Conseil said, "7 is a magical number, right? There is exactly a 7 in 1807."
Severus took out a cigarette and smoked.
Conseil glanced outside the door and closed it when no one was around.
"I remember that Napoleon's coffin returned to Paris in the winter of 1840, and Radolphus Lestrange resigned in 1841." Conseil said after closing the door, "Do you know something?"
"No!" Severus said firmly and affirmatively.
"Hufflepuff, right?" Conseil said to himself, "The British Minister of Magic during the Napoleonic Wars happened to be from Hufflepuff College."
"What do you want to say?"
"Does this believe in fate, Snape?"
"Shut up!" Severus said badly.
"If you don't know much, why don't you ask Malfoy? If the Montmorency family is indeed married to the Gaunt family, then the Gaunt family can also inherit the title of French nobility."
"What's the point? There are no nobles in France anymore." Severus exhaled a puff of cigarette. "Besides, the reason for the decline of the Gaunt family is from themselves."
"I remember that the image of Laverne de Montmorency on the chocolate frog picture is a bit like a female demon. Could it be that Melepu's appearance is inherited from her?" Conseil continued. "I can understand if she gave birth to a Veela, but if she is a female demon, she may really need the help of aphrodisiac."
The two were silent together.
"Do you have a chocolate frog?" Conseil asked after a moment.
The old Slytherin bat stared at him with a gloomy look.
"Why did you think of flipping through this book?" Severus asked, staring at the yellowed book.
"I don't know, I just feel that way." Conseil said, "It's like a voice is instructing me to open it."
Severus looked at him suspiciously.
"Haven't you ever had this feeling?" Conseil asked uncomfortably.
"What feeling?" the old bat asked sinisterly.
"Nothing," Conseil said expressionlessly, and just as he was about to touch the book, it slammed shut.
"Confiscate it!" the old bat said gruffly, and put the book into the deformed lizard skin pocket.
"Do we still need to follow this clue?" Conseil asked.
The old bat did not answer, and his face was very gloomy as he left the reception room where the Voltaire sculpture was placed.
