MTL - Harry Potter’s Morning Light-Chapter 2670 "Paris Time"
Chapter 2670 "Time in Paris"
When Pomona came to this world, all the magic jewelry was gone. The Deluminator is something Albus made in the 20th century, and it's not all "antiques" like what Borginberg sells.
Assuming that the world uses ancient magic, all "modern" things will be "shielded", and the principle of the Deluminator may be ancient. It has the power to absorb the surrounding light, also press a button, the light will return to where it came from, but if the light absorbed by the extinguisher is too far away from the "light source", it will not return to its original position after it is released .
If this feature is used, then the "mirror world" will not be too far away, but the distance between Ron and Hermione is so far...
She listed the known conditions like a problem-solving student, but she didn't know how to solve the problem because of lack of thinking.
"Ma'am."
Just as Pomona was struggling with the "puzzle" on the table, Charlotte appeared.
"It's time to change clothes."
The female boxer Charlotte said softly, and Pomona looked up at the clothes she brought.
It was a dark red velvet "Regency" dress with black sleeves and gold embroidered lining, and this simple dress was matched with extraordinarily gorgeous jewels, the kind that can be seen in museums. Yes, and not one set, but several sets of jewelry waiting for her to choose.
Except for the Elysian gold necklace, she didn't recognize any of them. And the emerald necklace she bought herself has been given to Charlotte.
"Where did these jewelry come from?" Georgiana asked.
"It's a Christmas present from the people of Genoa." Charlotte said softly, "Wear them to meet guests, they will be very happy."
Pomona didn't even have the strength to smirk.
No matter how bad the real world is, it is real, and she cannot live in an unreal dream.
However, some people will make different choices, such as the traitor in The Matrix. He knows that the juicy steak simulated by the "Matrix" does not exist, but he would rather live in the virtual world than the "real world". ", even willing to betray their friends and partners for this.
Through some instruments, people "upload" their consciousness into the "matrix"...
"Ma'am." Charlotte reminded, "It's time for us to change."
Georgiana stood up listlessly, and changed her clothes with the help of the maids, or let them dress herself up like a doll.
This dark velvet dress is sprinkled with diamond chips, which is more obvious than the light color.
At the same time, Britain also wore similar styles of long skirts, but they were much simpler. In movies, "Elizabeth" can often be seen wearing a pure white long skirt and attending a ball with Mr. Darcy.
White cotton is not dyed, which can save a lot of money, especially the price of indigo is no longer affordable by ordinary people.
French wedding dresses in this era are not pure white like in the 20th century, but blue. Pomona's idea of opening a bridal shop leading a new trend through the "royal wedding" is also whimsical.
The aristocrats in the old days took pride in holding a cheerful dinner party and salon, and the ladies looked forward to making news tomorrow. For this elegant social world, life is a carnival.
During the Great Revolution, masquerade **** were once banned. This kind of unrestrained and joyful ball, in the eyes of "outsiders", seemed to be unrestrained and unrestrained. In a word, it was considered "irrational" entertainment.
Pomona likes to pay attention to details, but not the kind of pointless, can not be ignored, such as who to give gifts. Gifts were originally given to express friendship, but something went wrong and offended people.
Kun hexagram, the way of the wife, the way of the minister.
She still has a lot to learn. After putting on the velvet dress, Georgiana, like a "normal woman", tried on the jewels one by one and listened to the compliments of the people around her.
No one will flatter the grassroots. Words of appreciation will help to liven up the atmosphere. So many things happened last night that the atmosphere is already dull enough. Don't ruin this sunny morning.
"If "Paris Time" hadn't stopped publishing, we would still know what people were discussing." The niece of the Archbishop of Ghent said suddenly.
Pomona froze for a moment.
"It's full of vulgar content, nothing interesting." Matilda said immediately.
Pomona looked at those former French nobles, they all kept a strange silence, it seemed that only Pomona and Charlotte didn't understand what they were talking about.
Pomona remembered a story Albus told her. When he was young, many lower-class Europeans would take a boat to the "New World" to find opportunities, but there were also some upper-class people who needed to travel, so There are many ships similar to the Titanic.
The rich pay more money to live in the first class, and those who have no money live in the crowded third class. Everything was fine until one day, a young man in the third class suddenly ran into the first class during dinner time. Calling for help in the restaurant.
He is out of tune with that gorgeous world, even the napkins on the table are cleaner than his shirts, and the reason he asks for help is that his sister is about to give birth, and happens to have a dystocia, so he needs a doctor.
If a doctor does not have excellent medical skills, he obviously cannot enter the restaurant of the first-class cabin to eat.
However, there is an unwritten rule in this world that first-class passengers are not allowed to go to lower-class cabins.
But obviously, if the doctor sticks to this rule, he will die... But everything else Albus said has nothing to do with what Pomona is going through now.
Life needs "flavoring", and some "episodes" will bring troubles to our lives, but they will also make our lives more "colorful".
“Is it a booklet like Proud City?” Pomona said.
This time it was the turn of the French to look at each other.
"What's that?" asked another niece of the archbishop.
I made this up.
Pomona said in his heart, but his mouth said, "It's about some new entertainment in London, or some new play at the opera house, or some new oriental spice."
"No, it's not." A duchess smiled ambiguously, "I have another one, do you want to read it?"
"Let's talk about it next time, we still have guests." Georgiana smiled, then picked up another set of jewelry and began to try them on.
In fact, Pomona also thought about it, what if she encountered the situation that Marie Antoinette encountered, that is, Mrs. Dubarry asked the Austrian princess to play the piano, and she happened to not know how to do it?
Is it really important to be able to play the piano, or is it a means of resolution?
Unlike Germany, the French court needs witty and witty little minds and ubiquitous witticisms. Frivolity and coquettishness are very suitable for Marie Antoinette's age. After all, she was just a girl at the time and did not become the later "Rococo Rose" .
It's a pity that all of these are Pomona's own assumptions, and she doesn't know what effect she will get by doing so, and she may even get ridiculed.
After all, Madame Dubarry’s purpose is to give the princess a bad start and let her know who the owner of the Palace of Versailles is.
Madame Dubarry didn't even think about the target, let alone the status of the Austrian princess. She herself represents the threat of the alliance of France and Austria to face Prussia. Before France and Austria turned against each other, Madame du Barry had the responsibility and obligation to treat Marie Antoinette well and make her feel like she had arrived at a new home.
Anyway, Pomona would do that. She really didn't understand what Madame Dubarry was thinking.
