Chapter 1049 The Dream of the Sage

  Before the ball opens, the last people who enter the venue are VIPs, but even for the ball held in the palace, not every ball will be attended by the king.

  In fairy tales, you can often see princes and princesses appearing at the ball. They are the heirs or non-heirs of the kingdom, and they sometimes represent the king himself.

  Usually princes will wear military uniforms with medals on their chests, while princesses will wear gorgeous dresses, precious jewels and the most eye-catching crowns.

The labyrinth built by Hagrid "Dark Light" looks like a beautiful garden at first glance. There are many marble sculptures inside, especially the third floor. There is a group of sculptures and a group of female fairies surrounding a crown wearing a crown. The young girl in the crown has a pedestal with seven jewels on it, just like the beautiful crown given to Princess Ariadne by Dionysus, the legendary **** of wine.

  But the princess died shortly after getting married. The always happy Bacchus was heartbroken and threw the crown into the air. The crown rose higher and higher, and finally rose to the ranks of the stars and became the North crown constellation.

  Even though I had made up my mind that the third piece of metal is related to Virgo, Pomona could not help but bring the alpha star Corona North into his field of vision.

  This star is also one of the fifteen magic stars. Its name is Gemma, which means "pearl, gem".

  Monarchy once wrote: People love peace, so they like gentle monarchs; soldiers need war to increase their wealth and honor, so they like brave, bold, and ambitious monarchs.

When there is war, there will be trophies. Jewelry, gold, artwork, sculptures, books, etc. The best trophies will be given to the king to get his favor, but they will also leave a part of themselves. Therefore, war is a fortune for the soldiers. Great opportunity.

A prince in a military uniform may be a gentle monarch, and a princess in a skirt may be a bold queen. Sometimes we don’t love someone but our desires. The power of the people and the soldiers is difficult to get along with, and the accommodating party is bound to be. Offend the other party-soldiers want to increase military spending, and the people need money to build infrastructure.

Mr.    mainly masters the balance, and this is often difficult to accomplish, because the flatterers are everywhere in the court.

The vast majority of people, including civilians, also lack resistance to sweet talk. Small vendors desperately praise customers for their good looks in the clothes they sell. Customers look in the mirror and feel that, even if it is actually as ugly as human history. The most ugly handkerchief ever made.

  People tend to be complacent about their own affairs, and intoxicated with it, it is difficult to extricate themselves from it. This kind of plague is hard to resist, and even if resisted, they risk being despised by others.

The relationship between Voldemort and Albus Dumbledore is like two monarchs with different styles. The declining pure-blooded aristocracy hopes to regain the glory and wealth of the past through the use of force, while the peace-loving civilians do not want to have that. More wars.

Voldemort has little resistance to sweet talk, he likes to be flattered; the old fool Dumbledore has won the love of many civilians, he is so wise that he can see through the true face of Tom Riddle's sweet words, and he has not been deceived like Slughorn. , But was despised by the aristocracy.

   Ah, the theory of the monarchy, Pomona read it a long time ago, and today she found it from the pile of books and reviewed it.

  The book she reads grows freely like her greenhouse, but occasionally fixes the branches. Unlike Severus' bookcase, which is meticulously organized and organized, he likes the style of the Padua Botanical Garden.

  When the book is used, I hate less, but there are too many books, and it’s just as hard to find.

  Severus watched her rummaging through the pile of books without sympathy, and had no intention of helping.

  Perhaps he was thinking about how to "take time off" from Voldemort, after all, he served Voldemort for a lot longer than her.

  She can only think so comfortingly, otherwise he will stand by and smile with schadenfreude and she can't help but punch him.

  Fortunately, he didn't say the sentence "I asked you to sort it out", otherwise she would be so angry that she would lose her mind and do things she couldn't think of.

"The monarch can control his subjects in two ways, one is the law, the other is force. The former is suitable for humans and the latter is suitable for beasts. Therefore, he should find a half-man and half-beast as a teacher, because the monarch only has one of them. It will never be a climate."

  Severus stood on the "shore" and said leisurely, letting Pomona be submerged by the "sea of ​​books".

"He should learn from lions and foxes. Lions cannot avoid traps, but they can scare away other beasts. Foxes are cunning enough to see through traps, but they don't have enough power to scare away jackals, tigers and leopards." Pomona gasped. Panting to move the book, answering the second half of the excerpt he was reading.

"When the lion king gets old and he can no longer frighten the beasts, he can only learn the cunning of the fox." Severus sneered and laughed. "He is not only a great wizard, but also a great liar and hypocrite."

   "Don't say that to him!" Pomona defended.

   "Oh, do you know who I am talking about?" Slytherin's viper spit out the letter, waiting for her to take the conversation and continue spraying the venom.

  She knows the times well and must continue to move books.

   "He is treachery." Severus said contentedly. "It seems that he has carried out that sentence very well, knowing when to be a moral and honest person and when to behave."

   "You angered him first."

   "He begged me to kill him." Severus growled grimly, "As a result, he didn't leave me any way out!"

  "Could you please stop talking about this." She said tiredly.

   "That old bastard." The former double agent cursed viciously, "It deserves his grave was stolen."

   appeared again.

Pomona rolled her eyes and began to concentrate on being a listener. Although Hefpaff and Ravenclaw also had conflicts, they were not as hot as when Gryffindor and Slytherin met. Playing Quidditch together in the college is like a gang fight.

Even the girls are like this. In the duel club, Hermione Granger and Millison are still pulling their hair all over the floor. That scene is indeed not as elegant as the skirt fluttering and dancing on the dance floor, but it is more elegant than Lavink. Lao's girl's dress should be upright and fair.

  Cinderellas are all sad because they don’t have skirts to participate in the prom. Pomona doesn’t know if they did it because of jealousy or because of the contradictions in the academy. After all, Cedric belongs to Hefpaff.

  Ah, the girl's heart is so complicated and terrifying.

   "The monarchy is flying!" Pomona finally used the flying curse, and a thin book quickly flew into her hands.

   "What do you dare to find this book?" Severus asked, "Do you have any questions you can ask me."

   "Uh..." She began to remember.

  What purpose did she look for this book in the first place?

   “Many people think that the wise monarch is not because of his own wisdom, but because he obeyed the advice provided by others. Do you think it is right?”

  Pomona raised her head, and in the aisle in the middle of the bookshelf, there was a person standing on the floor of the second floor. He was leaning on the railing and looking down at her.

  Bronze telescope and flying astrological chart, he looks very magical and unreal.

   "Who are you?" Pomona asked.

   "Hogwarts, Hogwarts, teach us something." The man suddenly sang funny.

   "Merlin's beard!" she yelled "Stop singing!"

  Every time the whole school sings the school song in their favorite tune, maybe only the Weasley twins will feel happy.

"That's it!" The man flicked his finger. "If the king consults more than one person, and everyone has their own arguments, then the unwise king will always coordinate his views, and this is the biggest weakness of the democratic system. , Arguing when it was necessary to be decisive, and the result was an opportunity for the enemy."

   "But unwise kings will not listen to other people's advice." She murmured, "I will also send you a ‘Don’t be nosy’."

   "If the king only listens to one person, then the one who advises him will surely seize power." That person said, "especially when the army is in his hands."

   "boring." She said boringly, "I don't like this topic."

   "Then what topic do you find interesting?"

  She thought about it, and picked up a book from the pile of books-"Food Magic and How to Hold a Banquet for 1,000 People".

   "I like this!" she said, holding up the book, but the person disappeared.

  In an instant, her surroundings quickly became dark, and the clanging instruments were gone, only the astrological charts were left, they turned into stars in the sky, and her feet became a void.

"what!"

  A powerful sense of falling came, and she couldn't help screaming.

  When she felt down to earth again, she found herself still on the sofa in the secret room.

   "It seems that birds can fly inside." Voldemort said in her mind, "but I can't get in the last level of the maze."

  Pomona was too shocked to speak.

  She just took a nap, and the maze sand table in front of her changed again.

  The structure inside the magic circle is now also revealed.
