Harry Potter Morning Light

Many people who come to work in this garden are from the town of Sevres, which is not far from Versailles and St. Luke, and sometimes hear some rumors from the palace.

Illness and death are not uncommon at Versailles, where once the last breath leaves a royal's body, his or her gilded bedroom becomes a butcher's shop. And those nobles or maids who accompanied the deceased for a lifetime are often in a state of grief, but no matter whether they are really sad for the death of the deceased or worried about their own future, when the body of the deceased is cut into pieces Sometimes they had to stand by the bed and see it all.

The doctor must ascertain the cause of death of the deceased, whether it was caused by poisoning or disease or infectious disease. If it was poisoning, none of the attendants could escape, and in order to prevent someone from saying that they were framed , so they must witness the dissection process.

Generally speaking, there will be a lamp next to it. After cutting the belly, the first thing to be taken out is the liver. The most obvious sign of poisoning is the liver. If there is no problem, it will be placed on a silver tray and handed over to a duke. Ma'am, next is the heart, seven or eight doctors document the findings, and then declare the cause of death.

In addition to the abdominal cavity, the skull was also to be opened, and the Prince of Condé at the time of Louis XIV's death was found to have a tumor in his head, which explained his later crazy and frightening behavior.

However, this kind of madness is much worse than the women in the harem, because they all know that they can get everything if they get the king's favor. Absolute kingship has all the powers and can own everything in the kingdom, unlike a country with a constitutional monarchy, the king is subject to various restrictions and can do whatever he wants.

Pleasure and balls are the themes inside the palace. Outsiders call it the Palace of Sanssouci. There are no worries and worries inside. There are too many masquerade balls and they feel that it is not new, so they try to figure out how to hold balls with novel themes. Aristocrats and gentlemen would eat oysters and drink champagne in luxurious restaurants. Compared with Napoleon’s heirs, the Bourbon dynasty spread quickly. Mrs. Montespan and Louis XIV had 7 illegitimate children. Not including those born to him and other mistresses.

However, such a high birth rate becomes insignificant in the face of the same high death rate. The Palace of Versailles is also a place where infectious diseases are rampant. Louis XV died of smallpox.

When Napoleon's army was stationed in Versailles, they soon discovered that there were no toilets inside. Even if there were, they were only for the use of a very small number of nobles. Most ordinary nobles would solve them on the spot when they had nowhere to go. Like the poor in Paris.

Bonaparte has encountered the downsizing due to infectious diseases. The place where so many people gather needs clean water and good sewage. He doesn't feel like the traditional old aristocrats that perfume can cover up the smell so they can't see it. The streets are full of shit.

Even though the “mountains of shit” that have accumulated outside the city for centuries have begun to be cleared away to make fertilizer in places farther from the city, the city of Paris still stinks. Bonaparte, who had just come back from the outside and breathed fresh air for a long time, couldn't stand the smell and planned to rectify it, but his proposal to build public toilets was not accepted, because he had to charge money to go to the toilet.

When the toilet is dirty, someone has to clean it, and someone has to clean it up, right? When the barricades were cleared, the workers were paid, and of course the ladies who cleaned the toilets and the "sweepers" were also paid, right?

The magistrate once forbade the locals to defecate freely on a rural street, which aroused protests from the villagers, not to mention that Paris itself is a huge public toilet. Charles V had issued an amnesty order requiring every house to be equipped with a latrine, but No one paid attention to it, so this pardon was forgotten like pissing in the wind.

Some people have a relationship with morality on this issue. In addition to public bathrooms in ancient Rome, there were also public toilets. Although in theory people would not do the same things in public toilets as in bathrooms, who knows what the real situation is like?

Therefore, when toilets could not be repaired in the city, they first built toilets in the restored palace, which was originally opposed, and people believed that it would destroy the layout of the entire palace. Later, the School of Architecture produced a lot of design drawings. In short, those exquisite houses look nothing like toilets on the outside, and this solved the problem.

People have always been busy destroying. Public works are an important part of public life. In the past, the king gave orders and the ministers were responsible for carrying them out. For example, the Palace of Versailles and the Great Seal Garden. Now Bonaparte forgot about repairing toilets Gave it to the council, to be precise, the scholars who had followed him to Egypt, and let them weigh for themselves.

The establishment of public utilities is not included in the powers of parliament stipulated in the constitution. First, it requires judicial supervision, and second, it needs to meet the needs of common interests at all levels. Some public utilities are unprofitable and no one is willing to do them. Although the bourgeoisie find clean streets pleasing to the eye, paying taxes every time they go to the bathroom is a big burden for low-income families. Later, someone took aim at the fertilizer factory, and they were responsible for paying for the repair of toilets.

That department actually makes a lot of money, and there are some wealthy families who are willing to pay people to pick up the dung. They can earn a fortune after being made into raw materials for fertilizer or gunpowder, and the workers are prisoners, so there is basically no cost.

But the last time "selling fertilizer" went so smoothly because of the power of the central government, it was bought with a forcible toll. The cities themselves can't build fertilizer factories just like Paris.

Haji has always heard that France's efficiency is slow, and now he has learned a lot.

"Foreigners, do you think public toilets should be paid?" A cheerful woman asked Haji.

"No." Haji said directly.

"Then who pays for our toilet cleaning?" the woman asked again.

"I keep talking about toilets, are you disgusting?" said a man with a serious expression.

"It's none of your business!" the woman said aggressively.

"You were talking about Mrs. Montespan, what did she do?" Haji asked.

Now no one speaks.

But the women obviously wanted to say something, but they just looked around, as if they were afraid that someone would see them.

"If you don't tell me, I will," said a younger village girl. "There is a false accusation that Mrs. Montespan intends to poison the king."

"Don't talk nonsense," a man warned the young girl.

"At that time, there was a poison maker named Lavazan. She specially made a love potion to confuse the king. Didn't you say that Mrs. Sevres drugged the milk tea? You said that she drugged the king to love herself all the time. I believe it, but I don't believe it if she poisons the king and his new love." The young girl ignored the warning and continued, "What's more, Madame de Montespin is not the only customer of Lavoisan, nor Any evidence that they are poisoners."

"What's wrong with the king?" Hadji asked.

"It's not the king." A middle-aged village woman pouted towards the box containing the corpse, "It's the little bitch who died. At that time, they fought fiercely. The king sent many scumbags to the prison of Vincennes in order to rectify the atmosphere. There was a man named Lesage who confessed in prison what Lavoisin did, just to get out of the place, including her and Madame de Montespin trying to poison the king. It took many years Now, if we didn’t dare to say it in the past, isn’t it a revolution now?”

"Is that girl involved?" Haji asked.

"Who knows, the official will check it out." The woman took a sip of lemonade, "Mrs. Nothing is as real as a wedding."
