Harry Potter’s Morning Light

   Chapter 2259 The Winter Banquet of the Sea God (1)

  The climate in the greenhouse is warm, and there will always be some bees, butterflies and so on flying around. The beauty of those tropical plants is not just to be admired, their purpose is to attract bees and butterflies, allowing them to collect nectar and spread pollen.

  Although Georgiana is not as powerful as Josephine's "assistant group", it is still easy to collect information on the beautiful woman who just talked to Napoleon. Her name is Chiara Robinson. She is of mixed Anglo-Italian blood. She grew up in Florence. She has a lively personality, does not speak English fluently, and has a strong Italian accent. Almost all the aristocratic men in London worship here. Under the skirt of an exotic stunner.

   This time Napoleon came to Antwerp, and many British people also came. They missed the celebration banquet to celebrate the signing of the Treaty of Amiens, and it was more troublesome to go to France. Compared with the Netherlands, it was much more convenient.

  Chiara is not only beautiful, but also sings sweetly. He also plays the flute, harp, harpsichord and piano. Didn't Bonaparte play the bard with a flute for decoration? She taught him to play the flute, in order to "not affect" the performance of the real artists, so they found a remote place and happened to be caught by Georgiana who was "vaccinating people".

Mrs. Emma Hamilton painted as a model, while Chiara was an artist herself. She showed artistic talent early on and learned to paint under the tutelage of the Florentine painter John Zoffani, who was taught by George Commissioned by Pope III, painting for the Octagonal Room of the Uffizi Gallery in Florence.

  The seemingly perfect Kiara has an unfortunate family, her father went bankrupt and was later adopted by his friends. The friend was an antique dealer, well-fed in London high society, and a close friend of Mrs. Devonshire. Aside from her glamorous looks and femininity, which combines Italian sensuality and English wit, she is indeed a very creative painter, whose work is dominated by fantastical mythological and historical themes, and who is as sympathetic as her teachers. Shadows and lighting are handled well, very Florentine.

In addition, she also exhibited a sculpture of a strong man in a cape. He has a very tough shape, like a rock weathered in the wind. He looks in one direction with deep eyes and holds a harpoon in his hand. .

   Originally, Georgiana thought it was Poseidon, but after listening to the introduction of the agent, she realized that it was the Roman soldier who cut off the giant's hand, and then she was not interested in this sculpture.

   Like Miranda said, should the theme of spring use flowers? Compared with sculptures, Kiara's paintings are more interesting. She painted the sea monster Scylla. This terrifying monster has a protective color like an octopus. It usually turns into a cliff with her dormant stone wall. Kiara is here. The picture shows the chalk cliffs of the Dover Sound, a ship is heading in that direction, and the sea is rough, and there is a harbour next to the cliff that looks suitable for docking. There is a fig tree in the harbour, a huge fig tree. Compared to the ship, Scylla was huge, like a giant beast.

   When Behemoth jumped into the water, he became a Leviathan.

   Jealousy is a woman's nature. After she regained her composure, Georgiana couldn't help but sigh that female painters are really bad. If Chiara wanted to be recognized by her own talents, rather than her appearance, she would also teach Bonaparte to play the flute. If she were a male painter, Georgiana would not have such a big reaction, and Chiara would lose a lot of opportunities.

The same is true for Scylla. She was originally a beautiful narcissus, and one day she fell in love with a handsome fisherman while walking by the water. However, Scylla did not like him and avoided his pursuit. Fortunately, the fisherman was just a A mortal, she doesn't have to turn into a laurel tree like Daphne to avoid Apollo's pursuit.

The fisherman stated his love to the witch Circe and asked for her help. Unexpectedly, Circe fell in love with the fisherman because of the love story, but the fisherman did not accept her love, and Circe put her The resentment was attributed to Scylla, so when Scylla was bathing, she cast a potion in the water, turning her lower body into a terrifying monster.

She felt a kind of exhaustion after the extreme anger, and the musician in the greenhouse was playing a medieval tune on the harp, so she found a pavilion, (yes, there is a pavilion in this greenhouse!) She found a place to lie down in the gazebo.

   In the middle of her sleep, she suddenly heard the sound of birds. It seemed that after the bees and butterflies, there were other species calling for spring in this winter palace.

She opened her eyes and found that it was Fleur Delacour. She was wearing a white gauze skirt, which was as light as fog. Then Fleur pulled her up, and then she found several beautiful women waiting outside the pavilion. With her, they wore gauze in aqua, white, green, etc., and when she joined, they began to dance.

   At first Georgiana couldn't keep up, but later she found the movement was very simple, so she jumped along.

   "There are also sea gods in Norse mythology."

   She turned her head and saw an old man with white hair and beard. At first she thought he was Albus.

   "He married his sister Lan and gave birth to nine daughters."

  Georgianna was stunned for a moment, and found that there were exactly ten dancers in a circle, including herself.

"They don't belong to the Frost Giants or the Protoss. They are a neutral race that is older than the Frost Giants." The old man said in an old voice, "The key is that they are neutral. They will use cauldrons to make wine and invite giants to feasts. ."

   She wants to break free of this "ring", where the veela dances will bring misfortune.

   But it's not so easy to stop, now she understands why the humans who join this ring will be exhausted, and the ghost is tireless.

   She felt very tired and wanted to open her eyes, but when she opened her eyes, she found someone watching her not far away.

   When she looked carefully, she realized that a painter was sketching for her, and he was so focused that he didn't notice that she was awake.

   She stayed still like a competent model, quietly watching him paint.

   There seemed to be a bird in the greenhouse, and she did hear its crisp chirping.

   She somehow remembered that time in the atrium outside the W Hotel's presidential suite, when Severus sang to her a song that seemed to be about sailors.

  MyheartispiercedbyCupid, Idisdainallglitteringgold.

  Thereisnothingcanconsoleme, butmyjollysailorbold.

   Comeallyouprettyfairmaids, whoeveryoumaybe, Wholoveajollysailorbold, thatploughstheragingsea.

  MyheartispiercedbyCupid, Idisdainallglitteringgold, Thereisnothingcanconsoleme, butmyjollysailorbold.

  The painter stopped his brush and looked up at her.

   "Do you know what the song I sang just now means?" she asked in French.

   "Yes." The young painter replied in English "I understand."

   "Have I seen you somewhere?" asked Georgiana.

   "We met, at the Louvre."

   When he said that, she seemed to have some impression.

   "Georgianna!"

   Before she could understand, she heard Bonaparte cry.

   She followed his voice and saw that he was looking at her sullenly.

   "I have to go," she said.

   "If you need help," said the young painter as she got up. "I can help you."

  Georgianna looked at him for a while, then turned and left.

   When she walked out of the pavilion, she did not find Hibiscus and the other fairies, as if that afternoon dream was like a winter fog that dissipated after sunrise.

   She left the dream, and the young man, and came to Bonaparte.

   He looked like he was going to get angry, but he didn't say anything and turned away with his hands behind his back.

   If he took a rope and tied it to her hand, he would look like a slave owner holding a female slave.

   She stuck her tongue out at his back.
