Chapter 1949 queenofair&darkness (1)

There are many types of armor. For example, the Templars, Hospitallers, and Teutonic knights wear chain mail. They usually wear cloaks. The advantage of this type of armor is that it can prevent hacking. The disadvantage is that the price is very expensive. It is made up of iron rings one after another, interlocking each other. It requires much more labor than plate armor, and only the Templars can afford it.

  The most popular in the 15th century was the Milanese armor. This kind of armor is very common because it is the masterpiece of European armor. It was still slightly black during the war between Florence and Siena in 1432, which was actually the result of the surface treatment of the original white armor. Later Joan of Arc also wore the same Milan armor, but she wore white.

  When craftsmen make armor, they usually use the same craftsmanship. Therefore, to recognize their commander, they must be identified. The king’s helmet often has a crown, so that everyone can know that he is the king from a distance.

Other feudal lords will also carry flags and other signs that can express their own status. Others make a fuss on the armor. Gorgeous armor is both a symbol of status and a symbol of wealth. Some people will leave complex patterns on the plate armor. Others will wear a shoulder clip like Georgiana's shoulder.

  Many people will have tattoos on their arms, but no matter what kind of tattoo, the armor will be invisible as soon as it is covered. This shoulder decoration probably plays this role, but it is a geometric pattern. According to the rules of the Middle Ages, if a knight is deprived of the title of knight, all the weapons and armor he or she has used will be thrown into the dirt and smashed.

Jeanne’s armor must have suffered the same fate. If the Rouen Museum had given Joan of Arc’s time, Georgiana would really not dare to wear it. After seeing the Celtic knot on her shoulder, she was determined to wear it. superior.

  Her thin skirt can't hold things heavier than it, unless it's leather armor, but that looks nondescript.

  She didn’t know whose idea it was. With a shoulder clip, her shoulders didn’t look empty anymore, but she also lacked femininity and was slightly rigid. In general, she herself felt good-looking.

  When it was done, she put on the long gloves, planning to hide the wand in the gloves later when no one noticed. At this time the maid put a tray in front of her, with several veils on the red velvet.

  They are all styles created by Georgiana when she went shopping in the afternoon, with bronzing and diamonds on the transparent gauze. The tailors got new inspiration so quickly. The veils in front of her can be worn in two ways, one is to hang them on the ears, and the other is to wear them on the top of the head, decorated around the veils. The gems just cover the area from the nose to the chin.

  There is always a way to be luxurious. She chose a dark blue veil like the night sky with bronzing birds on it.

  This is mainly because she wore a forehead ornament. The jeweller recommended her to use sapphire, saying that it matched her eyes.

  She has two eyes on her own, and another eye of the same color on her forehead will be three eyes. She finally chose a transparent topaz, as long as no one said it, no one thought it was not a diamond.

  When she buys jewelry, she looks at the design first, and then the material. In her eyes, the "emerald" polished from the green beer bottle is no different from the "natural" emerald.

  Unless she intends to **** and mortgage these jewels, she wants the authentic ones, but diamonds are generally taken to **** shops, and the final valuation will be much cheaper than when they were bought. She asked just now, but Bonaparte was going to fool her with jewelry.

   She endured this breath, and now it was time to talk about the pomp, she stretched out her hand to let the maids help her up, and then took Alice to the art gallery.

  The second floor of the library is connected to the art gallery, and the floor is covered with marble. Even if this long skirt is almost mopped, there is no need to worry about getting dirty.

In the darkness and silence, the dazzling array of jewels and silks on the women made crisp or rustling sounds when they walked. When she came to the double door to the art gallery, two dressed in gorgeous Versailles-style jackets The attendant was already waiting for her.

  "Are you ready?" Georgiana asked.

   "Yes." Alice said.

   "Open the door." Georgiana said nervously, and then the two attendants opened the double door.

  The people in the atrium were talking in low voices, but suddenly they all stopped talking. Both men and women looked at the second floor together.

She tried to find Leon's figure among these people, but the women all wore the same veils as hers, and the men wore masks. Even if the hall was brightly lit and thousands of candles were lit, she still could not Distinguish.

Holding on to the handrails, she slowly descended down the marble stairs. As a newly opened art gallery, there are not many collections here, at least incomparable to the Louvre, but the decorations are all new, without gilding and murals. , It's just the natural color of the stone, which can highlight the artwork itself.

  I don’t know why she thought of Merlin and Carmelo. When King Arthur drew the sword in the stone from the stone, does it mean that he was the "chosen one"?

  Because he is special, Merlin chose to become his great sage.

  The Corsican dwarf seems to be playing a game with her, hoping that she can find him from many people, and he does not want to think about his height.

  But she soon found out that she was wrong. He didn't know where to find some people about his height. They also wore masks.

  She passed by these people. Bonaparte probably drank the perfume as mineral water. The cologne smell on her body was so strong that she easily knew that these people were not him.

  Later, in a corner near the potted plant, she saw the red inspection suit. She walked over, but found that the smell was still wrong.

  She looked at the eyes behind the mask carefully, they were not gray-blue, so she looked around again, and finally she found a "uncle" at the top of the stairs she had just walked down.

Bonaparte's clothes are generally simple, but this one is very luxurious. The dark green coat is embroidered with golden patterns and the waist is wrapped with a white belt. Fortunately, he didn't wear that terrible lace bow tie.

  She walked towards him, this time she smelled his cologne from a long distance away, and the color of the eyes behind the mask was also correct, but she still looked him up and down.

  The Corsican laughed, and the crowd began to applaud enthusiastically, as if to congratulate her on her guess.

  She cannot understand these people.

  At this time, the music rang, and the Corsican flexed his arm, as if to beckon her to hold it.

  She wouldn’t lose face at this time, she took his arm to the center.

   "You are so beautiful." He exclaimed, "Like the goddess of the night."

   "You have gained weight." She said cruelly, "Especially with that belt, remember to keep your abdomen in."

  He didn't mind that his figure was laughed at, and pulled her to dance a minuet.

  They danced the waltz in the city hall yesterday. Now it’s a masquerade, Renaissance style, and of course they want to dance retro.

  Trained by her dance teacher, she is not as clumsy as before, but she sometimes forgets where she is, or if she is dreaming.

   "I love you, Pomona." Her dancing partner said to her. In fact, she hoped he would continue to call her Georgian.

   "I love you too, Leon." She responded, and now he showed him the most polite and charming smile.

  The upper atrium of the art gallery is a glass and steel frame structure, which looks like a greenhouse, so you can see the sky.

  The moon is not a full moon, and it is still in the clouds, and the stars are invisible.

  But she seemed to hear the howling of a wolf.

  The voice was so bleak, it made her feel sad. It seemed to be lonely and pitiful, so did it call its companions?
