  Chapter 1639 Frog&fog (27)

  The children surrounded the storyteller and clamored for him to tell another story.

  Speak more, the children shouted in unison.

  The storyteller said: Okay, but there is a condition.

What is   ? The children said in unison.

  The storyteller said: I want you to keep quiet. When I tell a story, I don’t want to hear someone croaking like a duck.

  The children covered their mouths with their hands, so the storyteller continued:

  You can imagine an emperor wearing an imperial robe, but exposed to wind, rain and mud. Does he look like an emperor?

  The children shook their heads together.

  You can imagine an emperor wearing an imperial robe, but standing in a theater. Does he look like an emperor?

  Half of the children shook their heads, and half of them nodded.

  You can imagine an emperor who does not wear an imperial robe, but stands in the palace. Does he look like an emperor?

  Children look at me, I look at you,

  The storyteller laughed.

  It’s time to go back, little guys, you should listen to what your parents say, next time I pass through the village, you will chase me away, because my story will only bring trouble and disaster.

================================================== ============

  After hiding the snow mountain hut, Severus returned to the manor. Gong Saiyi was not in a hurry to go to the Lestrange family cemetery.

"We have always ignored one person." Gonsey said when he saw Severus walking in. "Louis Philip, the former Duke of Orleans, he was the founder of the July Dynasty, he was before Napoleon III and Osman He has already started a large-scale rectification of Paris with Lambto, the point is that he may have buried the mummy under the July pillar."

   "Don't you think it was an accident?" Severus asked.

"I think there is still a difference between a dry corpse and a'fresh' corpse. The mummies are all wrapped in bandages. Even if those responsible for burying the corpses may be tired, they will not be unable to distinguish it." Gong Saiyi said, "1832 Cholera was pandemic in Paris in 1999. The Canal Saint-Martin had been repaired. Obviously the river was not functioning as it should. In my grandfather’s words, "Those sad Muggles don’t even have clean water to drink." At that time, people believed that cholera was caused by the miasma of dead corpses and other decaying objects. Muggles paid more attention to wind direction and temperature than water quality testing. Perhaps the Duke of Orleans thought that the plague and the Black Death were the same as Napoleon’s curse and mummified the mummies. Buried in the Bastille Square with those who participated in the July incident can not only stop the plague, but also prevent the riots. Of course, this did not work. The plague eventually caused a riot, but it was not as severe as the Cairo riot."

  "How to bring up Cairo?"

"Because the plague also broke out in Cairo in 1831, but it was not the Bonapartists who initiated the riots in 1832, but the Republicans. The main reason for the uprising was the improper handling of the epidemic by the government led by Louis-Philippe, the oldest source of cholera. The place is the Ganges River in India. As travelers to India and the East India Company spread to Europe and Africa, 14% of Cairo people died of cholera in 1831. If the latter is to replace the former, something better than the former It’s a matter of fact that during Napoleon’s reign, French industry progressed faster than during the Bourbon period. In the Duke of Orleans’s period, it progressed even faster thanks to British funding. I know that the British were not willing to give technology to France at all..."

  Severus looked at Gonsey coldly, and Gonsey changed the subject.

"From 1833 to 1835 was the intersection of the old and the new in Paris. Ground was broken everywhere in the city. From that time on, my grandfather’s neighbors began to move, looking for places with fresh air, beautiful scenery and exquisite architecture. Quiet life. Since the restoration of the Bourbon dynasty, officials have been busy with political struggles and have not paid special attention to infrastructure construction. The water in the city is still very dirty, and the water transporters have to provide drinking water to the citizens of Paris. At that time, London had running water, and Napoleon knew at least to provide clean water to the city. Both Egypt and India were Napoleon’s dreams. The death of a large number of people also made the cemetery crowded again. According to the king’s order, it was buried in the cemetery. The July martyrs in the cemetery were moved to the Bastille square, but when they excavated the tombs, those responsible for moving the graves found a mummy with bandages on their bodies. What's more, the coffins of the mummies are different from the coffins of Westerners. You Guess what those people think?"

  Severus shook his head "Sounds so funny."

"With the rise of commercial corridors, the boulevards have become very popular, while the palaces and palaces of the past have been left unattended. The activity center of the upper class has gradually moved westward, and the city center is crowded with immigrants from other provinces. They did not care how dilapidated and crowded or messy the place was. In April 1832, 12,733 people died in one month. Later, they analyzed the causes of the spread of the epidemic, and they felt that cholera would take a downward turn in the continuous wind. This is their conclusion based on statistical data and climate records at the time. Don’t look at me with that look.” Gonsey complained, “At that time, only one doctor thought it was because sewage contaminated the well water. The baker took water directly from the clean water to make bread, and this began a wide spread. Ottoman planned an above-ground building. Before him, there was a man named Lambto. He took over on June 22, 1833. Senior officials of the Seine province."

  "Not the Mayor of Paris?"

"Before there was no mayor in Paris. It was a high-ranking official of the Seine province. This is a French tradition." Gonsey said impatiently. The water pipes are integrated and arranged underground. Do you remember that we entered the Louvre on June 21, which happened to be the summer solstice and it was a full moon."

   "How could I forget." Severus whispered, "There is also the reflection of the Egyptian pyramids in the fountain of the Louvre."

   "It's only a day away, do you think this is a coincidence?" Gong Saiyi asked.

  "Where's that clue in Venice?" Severus asked

"I think I saw a woman leading me to the shell house. Do you remember that Nefertari's sandals were also worn and left." Gonsey said, "If Pomona is not the first The victim, there are other women controlled by him, maybe this is part of the trap, and the ghost who claims to be the gatekeeper. No one stipulates that the ghost cannot lie."

   Severus rubbed the bridge of his nose, his brain seemed to be sorting the news.

"After the first underground pipe gallery was designed, European countries began to follow suit to build underground pipe gallery. I remember that Britain was also attacked by cholera in 1856. When was your first underground pipe gallery built?" Gong Saiy asked.

   "You want to stay here?" Severus asked.

   "Uh..." Gong Saiyi hesitated.

  " Pack your luggage or stay in this place, next time I come, I don’t want to see you half packed."

  Severus finished speaking, took a big step, pulled the cloak, and quickly left the room.

================================================== ============

  There are roses arranged everywhere on the ship.

  These roses are both bred in the UK and bred in France. They are not distinguished by botanists or specialized rose cultivators. What is the difference between roses for most people?

At the beginning of the 19th century, people have not discovered how profitable the clothes are made. After buying the fabrics, girls have to go back to cut and sew by themselves. Whether she is a noble lady in the upper class or an ordinary peasant girl, almost every girl needs needlework. Learned.

  Who can tell whether the cotton in his hand is picked by North American slaves or grown by self-cultivators?

  Henry Petty accompanied Georgiana on the cruise, but he never mentioned the "business". Instead, he introduced a person to Georgian.

  This man was named Jean-Louis Farron, Marie Antoinette's queen perfumer. After the French Revolution began, he tried to escape to the United Kingdom and now serves the elites of the British upper class.

Because Napoleon hated the smell of fur, he burned a precious fur that Georgiana received from the Americans and threw it out of the Tuileries. King George also heard about it, so...Falron came His job is to collect the aromas of flowers, peels or some fragrant woods.

The meeting gift that Farrong gave to Giorgioanna was a black lacquer box with flowers and birds in gold, and inside it was a fan. The fan bone was shipped from China by the East India Company and made of ivory. The fan was made of Venetian lace and sprinkled on top. Er Rong personally tuned the perfume for Georgiana. As long as she shakes it gently, the fragrance will spread.

  In Voltaire's words, a lady without a fan is like a man without a sword.

  Georgiana, who had no "sabre", had to accept it.

A fan is the most decent gift. When giving the fan box to Matilda, Giorgioanna saw Lemachan whispering to her entourage from the corner of her eye. You don’t need to guess or know that she will soon have a new expensive fan. Here it is.

  But is it a fan problem?

Marie Antoinette’s maid later became Marie Antoinette’s perfumer. She wanted to use this fan to fan the wind to cool herself down, but the lace fan was ventilated, which was completely flashy. .

  The few social etiquette left make her continue to maintain a charming smile. She also spread the fan to cover half of her face like noble ladies, looking very elegant and conscientious.

  In fact, she would rather have a fan made of banana leaves, like the iron fan princess in Journey to the West, use it to blow the wind, so that this slow boat can drive faster!

  She opposes the use of ivory products. No matter how strong the scent is, she can’t hide the **** smell. Who would be in a good mood after smelling the **** storm?
