Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 3301 King Mesa’s Garden (10)

Pomona's favorite devil's net did not exist at the beginning. She found it in an underground cave. It seemed to be the tomb of an ancient witch. There was a secret passage behind the mirror at Hogwarts. Go there.

Sirius and James had fought the Death Eaters there, and it seemed that because they destroyed the secret passage, the secret room behind the mirror no longer transformed, and Harry did not use that place when he needed a place to train Dumbledore's Army.

In that tomb is a kind of fire lily native to South Africa. It is not afraid of flames like other plants. Instead, it likes forest fires. After the fire, everything turns to ashes, but it emerges from the ground and becomes the only bright light among the ashes. color.

Historically, Troyes was once the tricasses, the capital of Gaul under the rule of the Roman emperor. In the 3rd century AD, the Roman emperor Alexander Severus was busy fighting the Persians and Germans. Unfortunately, he was killed in the battle, and the army supported Troy. Lax became the emperor, and he was busy with political struggles after returning to Rome. In 258 AD, Postumus, the commander of the Gallic garrison, broke away from Rome and proclaimed himself Emperor of Gaul. His territory included what is now Britain, Spain and part of Germany.

Postumus was killed by soldiers in 268, and Gaul was divided. It was not until the Roman Emperor Aurelian recovered Gaul that the Gallic Empire was destroyed.

During this time, Troyes served as the capital. Around the 5th century, the Huns attacked the place. It was guarded by a bishop named Lupu. After Attila's death, it soon came under the jurisdiction of the Count of Champagne. He built many buildings there. Churches and almshouses were built, and large fairs were established. The famous Champagne fairs were held regularly every year in Provin, Lanny, Bachour and Troyes. They brought extraordinary prosperity to Troyes.

The status of the Knights Templar was formally determined at the synod held in Troyes in 1129. Innocent II confirmed in a papal bull that the members of the Knights Templar were only responsible to the Pope and were no longer subject to the king and local bishops. The command is an important force in defending the Holy Land of Jerusalem and the Levant.

At the same time, the Knights promulgated the Original Rules or Latin Rules, which are written in Latin and stipulate in detail the procedures for selecting and accepting knights, the knights' prayer methods, and the rules of conduct in public places. This regulation was first drafted in Jerusalem, with a total of 68 articles. At the Troyes Conference, the issue of knights' clothing was also discussed. At that time, people's stereotype of secular knights was that they were luxurious and showed off, and the Templar knights should wear all white. Monastic robes, constitutional complete chastity.

This situation lasted until Philip IV married Juana of Navarre and obtained the right to rule the Champagne region. Under Philip's rule, the Champagne market quickly declined, and at the same time the maritime trade routes from Italy to Northern Europe Overland commercial transport has been opened and there is no need to cross the Alps.

On Friday, October 13, 1307, Philip IV ordered the arrest of the Knights Templar. In addition, he ordered the Pope and Curia to be moved to Avignon.

At its peak, Troyes had 25 churches. These 10 churches are what are left after the fire of 1524, when 1,000 houses were burned down in Troyes.

Notre Dame was built in the 12th century, almost the same era as the oldest church in Troyes, and is also Gothic. In addition to the prosperity of the Champagne market, commercial activities at that time were closely related to pilgrimage. Pilgrimage brings people together to hang out around the church after the ceremony.

During the Reformation, many Huguenots were driven out and their churches were demolished. Industry and commerce resumed for a period of time when Henry IV issued the Edict of Nantes. By Louis XIV, constant wars and taxes increased the town's population. It declined, and by the 19th century it was no longer prosperous. In the 20th century, it became a little Roman village described by historians.

You could spend a month wandering from church to church, but Georgiana was not focused on what was going on in the city.

There are several villages outside the city wall next to the Seine River. Each one looks quite dangerous because there are no river embankments built at all.

Today, there is no pillar industry in Troyes. Since the Bronze Age, Troyes has produced iron tools. Now they mainly rely on mining and metallurgy to obtain income.

The news reported that the village had been flattened by floods, and she couldn't find it on a 20th-century map, and she couldn't find it on a 19th-century map, as if it didn't exist.

But no matter what, she had already planned to use the church bells as alarm bells. Of the 10 churches, one was responsible for fire alarm, one was responsible for flood situation, and one was responsible for enemy situation.

She asked the mayor of Troyes to send someone to Paris. The Vulcan Palace was being decorated and stained glass might be used. What happened in the future would be discussed after she returned from Italy. If she could go back, then the second At dawn they set out for Chatillon.

After Chatillon, the next stop was Dijon, where Hagrid and Madame Maxime had stayed and had conflicts with people in bars when they were lobbying giants in Europe to join the Wizarding War.

At that time, the Order of the Phoenix had little chance of winning. Not only did the European giants not participate, but even the leader of the British giant tribe was overthrown by the giants of the same tribe after receiving the gift Eternal Fire. The new leader led his tribe to join in to watch. It's time to win over the Death Eaters, who have a greater chance of winning.

After this battle, the British giants disappeared, leaving only Hagrid and his brother.

Destiny is like a roulette wheel, no one knows where it will end up.

If Georgiana were in Charles Bennett's position, it would be time for him to raise a Guard and keep himself safe.

If Captain Cerroni felt that he could not achieve anything in the Italian Army, he should leave like Prince Eugen and join the German army, or the army of any country he thought might win, such as Russia. Home Popham also asked for 10,000 men from the Tsar, although he lost in the end.

What Georgiana couldn't understand the most was what did Cheroni mean by calling French thieves covered in royal blood in his poem?

Chatillon was once one of the main battlefields during the French Revolution. The main force of the Royalists was here. The Republicans lost a battle here and 6,000 people were captured. Among them, 2,000 Republican prisoners were killed after surrendering, and 3,000 people were killed. Imprisoned, all artillery was destroyed, and only the leading general escaped with 500 cavalry.

On his return to Paris he was tried by the National Assembly, but he was acquitted and only narrowly escaped the guillotine.

Another famous story about Chatillon is that during the Second Crusade, a man named Leonard, who claimed to be a knight from Chatillon, claimed that the Byzantine Emperor Manuel had violated his oath and had to pay a sum of money to He was marching eastward, so he had to blackmail the Bishop of Limoges and ask him to pay a fee to attack the island of Cyprus in revenge.

When the Bishop of Limoges refused, he tied the bishop, stripped him naked, and exposed him in the hot sun on the top of the castle. After the bishop was released, he was exhausted and agreed to support Leonard.

When he arrived in Byzantium, Leonard saw the Byzantine Emperor, who was much more powerful than himself, and was forced to knelt before the throne barefoot and in ragged clothes, begging for forgiveness. Manuel let him lead his horse into Jerusalem, where Baldwin III ruled.

Later, he was imprisoned by an Armenian peasant for 15 years. At this time, his stepdaughter had married Manuel I, and the emperor redeemed him with 500 kilograms of gold. When Baldwin IV became king of Jerusalem and Leonard became prominent in the city, Saladin came to Jerusalem with the jihadists.

Saladin negotiated a truce with Baldwin in 1180, but in 1186 Leonard attacked a caravan traveling from Cairo to Damascus. He captured all the merchants and loot, and refused Saladin's demand for ransom. Saladin's sister was in the caravan.

This led to the end of the truce, and Saladin vowed that if Leonard was captured, he would be executed.

Later, at the Battle of Hattin, Leonard was indeed captured, and Saladin ordered Leonard to be brought to him.

During Leonard's trial, Saladin asked: How many times have you broken an oath? How many times have you signed an agreement that you never respected?

Leonard told Saladin: Kings always do that, I've done nothing wrong.

At that time, King Guy was captured with Leonard. He was panting with thirst. Saladin handed him a glass of water. The king drank it and gave the rest to Leonard, who also drank. Then Saladin said, You did not ask his permission before giving him water, so I am not obliged to forgive him.

Then Saladin stood in front of Leonard with his sword in hand.

Saladin said before executing Leonard: It is not the custom of kings to kill kings, but this man has crossed the line, so I will treat him like this.

Seeing Leonard being killed, King Guy thought he was next. Saladin said to him in a comforting tone, This man was killed only because of treachery. Saladin pardoned Guy's life.

Legend has it that during the Tulip Age, the Ottoman Empire built a palace outside Constantinople imitating Versailles called the Happiness Palace, which is transliterated as saadabad.

A mother told her daughter that she brought her into this world because she was sure that the world was happy.

Georgiana wished she could be like her.

It's a pity that she has decided to leave Wuthering Heights. No matter what kind of grudges Heathcliff and Catherine have, Isabel is innocent. She saw a wider world, even if the world was not as full of happiness and joy as the mother said.

But she still wanted to return to the magical world. When the burned-out Gothic churches were demolished, cast iron was found among the stones. At first, people thought it was decoration.

Later, people discovered that they were correctors, because in order to make the Gothic church look lighter, the pillars and arches were made very thin, so that there was no support, and they were fixed with cast iron staples like Link together to become strong and reliable.

Hogwarts doesn't need cast iron, magic is enough to support it.

She missed the spiral staircase and the floating candles in the auditorium and Felivi's choir.

And riding a boat, you can see the brightly lit castle reflected in the black lake.

She once dreamed that someone could hold her hand and help her step to the shore.

Just like what the song says, give your whole life to him...

Georgina, look! Katherina shouted looking out the window.

She looked out the window and saw that they should be very close to Lausanne, because Lausanne was by a lake, and the clear lake water reflected the snow-capped Alps.

Even if the Seni Mountain Road is repaired, will it be passable with such thick snow on the mountain?

Sure enough, there's no point in being anxious.

She thought boredly, but then again, how did Murat's letter travel between Paris and Milan?

We have arrived here anyway, and if we want to take another road, we should go to Troyes. There seemed to be no other way to go but to go on.

and the restoration of churches in Troyes and Avignon.
