Chapter 2688 Aeiou

Section 2i.o.u

According to the inherent European custom, the trumpet of war is sounded only from the first good day in spring to the last good day in autumn. The months of rain, snow and ice are spent in the so-called winter barracks. This habit has been since ancient times. In this way, even the most capable generals have to choose the time to fight based on the almanac.

However, Pishglu ignored this precedent. In addition to "displaying human cultural heritage," the museum also has a role in explaining natural sciences. The land absorbs heat quickly and dissipates heat quickly; the ocean absorbs full heat and dissipates heat slowly. Europe belongs to the westerly belt. In the summer, the westerly wind takes away the heat from the land. In the winter, it blows the heat and water vapor from the sea to the land, which indirectly keeps Europe at a relatively comfortable temperature. Unlike Siberia, which is the center of continental cold pressure, in winter, instead of supplementing the heat emitted by the ocean, cold air from the Arctic is allowed to enter, causing Siberia to become a "cold pole" colder than the Arctic.

As long as she thought about the Quidditch World Cup held in the Siberian forest in 1809 and the subsequent "Killer Forest Incident", her mood was hardly wonderful. The only thing that gave her some relief was that the Quidditch World Cup was held in the summer, so at least there would be less of the deadly Siberian wind.

Using black magic to force trees to leave the soil where they have grown for many years will only make them crazy. Using the Muggle war as an excuse to cancel the Quidditch World Cup is also impossible. It will only intensify conflicts, unless another French Revolution breaks out. The wizards have been sent to the guillotine, so naturally they will not be in the mood to participate in the World Cup.

It is said that after Peter the Great finished his trip to Europe, he returned to Russia to build the Summer Palace. When building this palace, the most outstanding craftsmen and designers from France and Italy were gathered together, and Peter the Great also participated personally.

Compared with the severe cold in winter when dripping water turns into ice, the Summer Palace is full of water and there are fountains everywhere in the palace.

The Hermitage was originally Catherine's private museum. She purchased a large number of paintings by Rembrandt and Rubens from Berlin. During her reign, she continued to purchase new art collections and books, including Rembrandt's paintings. "The Prodigal Son Returns".

This kind of human civilization cannot stop the violent spruce, but cannonballs may be more effective.

There was a book, and Georgiana put it at the bottom of the box. She thought she would not open it in the future, but she didn't expect to find it again today when she was looking for clothes to wear.

It was a pamphlet written by an Austrian, because it was written in German, and they had a staff officer read it out at the time.

"I have only one sentence: Be the master of your destiny." This is what he said after listening.

There is also a proverb in the East: People plan things, and God makes things happen.

Although it is called destiny, is it not a human matter?

Maybe it’s because there are too many ambitious people in this era. A doctor wrote an article pointing out the harmful effects of excessive ambition on people’s health, such as causing stroke or heart disease, and this kind of passion often leads to paranoia. The asylum is full of bigots who think they are generals, popes, or gods.

His advice is to put aside his false pride and find some friends who are satisfied with his destiny. With the long-term company of these friends, he will eventually change.

Georgiana felt that what he said was reasonable, but the reality might be different from what he thought. Pomona had been with Severus for 30 years, but she didn't see much change in him. Instead, she changed herself, becoming dissatisfied with her fate and wanting more.

She had been jealous of the red-haired woman, but now she felt it was no longer necessary.

"Madam, look." A maid came over with a copper vessel. "What do you think this is? Is it magical?"

"This is for bed heating, idiot." A seamstress said, "This place is used to store carbon, then close the lid and reach into the bed..."

"I know, look at this." The maid turned the thing over, with a mysterious symbol engraved on it.

"This is the tacit symbol of Holy Roman Emperor Frederick III, which can also be said to be his personal emblem."

Georgiana turned around and saw that Dominic had come in.

"He was the father of Maximilian, the father-in-law of Mary of Burgundy."

"So you think it's legitimate for his things to appear in Belgium?" Georgiana asked.

“You may have heard of his ‘frugal’ style, and Maximian inherited that,” Dominique said.

"Yes, I've heard of it," Georgiana said dryly. "Cosimo Medici was so thrifty that he had to pretend to be ill to avoid his exploitation."

Frederick III never fought any victorious battles in his life, but it did not affect his ambition at all. This complex emblem is actually the abbreviation of a sentence in German and Latin, which roughly means "Austria will rule the world", "The whole world will Bow to Austria."

In order to achieve this goal, he needed a lot of money. Medici, who was not the richest man in the world at the time but was extremely high-profile, became the target of his blackmail. Then Cosimo Medici "pretended to be dead" and waited for Frederick III to leave. , who was dying of illness, started jumping around again.

Dominic laughed dryly twice, and then said, "But his marriage to the Portuguese princess is very happy. They have many differences. The princess likes luxury and ostentation, but the emperor thinks that so much money should not be spent and sent back all the princess's dowry." ”

"Princess, you have no objection?" Georgiana asked.

"Of course, they quarreled over trivial matters all their lives, from what to eat at noon to what clothes the children wore, and even whose bed to sleep in at night. The Vienna court was very lively during that period." Dominic said, "The quarrel was at least much better than being cold and unpopular."

"Do you feel cold?" Georgiana sneered, "Do you want to add some more firewood?"

"You don't have to get angry over such a small matter."

Georgina didn't know how to make it clear to him. Maybe Dominic felt that their "relationship" could still be saved. Considering the past affection, it would be easy for Georgiana to recommend someone to go to Hamburg.

What supports her now is a kind of "inertia", just like being pushed by fate, going wherever she goes. If her previous world was still a colorful soap bubble, the ballerina used her toes to puncture the soap bubble, and also pierced her heart by the way.

Maybe she is now as pale as an Englishman, or like a corpse in the permafrost, covered by layer upon layer of snow, and finally disappeared on the plains of Siberia, nothing can bring her back to life.

"You are different from what I imagined." Dominic said.

"What do you think I should be like?" Georgiana asked.

"More like a person, a living person." Dominic said.

"Because I am a fool." Georgiana smiled, "I used the wrong method to avenge my husband."

Dominic looked at her in surprise.

"Mr. Smith has another woman in his heart, but in the final analysis it is because I am too naive. Not every 'father' will forgive the 'prodigal son'."

"So what do you want to do now?" Dominic asked.

"I don't know, what can you do?" Georgiana said weakly, looking extremely helpless.
