Chapter 3327
Chiconyara asked the servant to change the wine, which had a ruby red color.
"This is the Barolo that I have been hiding for 15 years, my personal favorite." Chiconyala told the two.
Georgiana took the wine and smelled it carefully. It exuded the aroma of roses and a woody aroma similar to cedar. No wonder Bonaparte would drink perfume as wine.
"Can you tell me why you sold the Isabella of Ferrara painted by Titian, and what's wrong with that?" Ciconiala said.
Because that's not real.
Georgiana thought that the real age of the person in the painting was already 60, but she asked Titian to paint herself as if she were 20 years old.
"I think artists should have the freedom to create." Georgiana looked at Chiconyara and said, "Rather than being forced by patrons to create according to their own wishes."
"I have many such works here, but unfortunately they are neither favored by buyers nor recognized by the public." Ciconiala said. "Even Canova needs to be crowned a modern Michelangelo." Luo’s title, they obviously have different styles.”
Georgiana agreed.
Canova chose Sèvre to set up his studio because he would first make the sketches into pottery figurines, and then fire them into shapes in the kiln. Once determined, they would be copied in plaster, and his assistants would then transform them into marble. During the conversion process, Canova would need many measuring tools and draw black dots on the plaster model as fixed points. Assistants would carefully and accurately measure and carve, while Michelangelo would cut directly on the marble.
After writing the letter, Georgiana folded it and put it into the envelope. She hesitated whether to seal it, after all, it would save "everyone" some trouble.
As the French general Count Jacques de Guibert, whom Napoleon came into contact with at the Paris Military Academy, wrote in his "General Theory of Tactics": "Active troops both burden the people and cannot achieve decisive victory in the war. At the same time, the people Most of them neglected their armed training and became increasingly weak... If a country could become manly and create a national army, it would dominate Europe."
In terms of so-called masculinity, her personal understanding is a generally recognized priority. For example, Horace killed his sister. Killing was of course illegal and the law prohibited killing, but the Romans did not blame him because he obtained Victory and defense of Rome.
In this inherent model, male dominance is fully exercised, and the obligation to demonstrate masculinity is also imposed on every man. Reputation is different from guilt, and the Spartans defended their place in the public dining hall to maintain the approval of the group. "Being brave" sometimes means fearing that you will be expelled from the world of men with "no weak people" and relegated to the world of "weak people".
This is true whether it is Gryffindor or Slytherin, strength, competition, etc. Ravenclaw and Hufflepuff do not have the pressure brought by these masculine qualities, nor do they need the approval of "real men". The boys in the academy embody gentleness and gentleness after removing their masculinity. Even if they are criticized, they will not pretend to be heroes.
Georgiana used to think that she was well-educated, and she had taught for so many years, but here she found that she was outclassed by a man who was so much younger than her.
She is a woman to begin with, and there is no burden for her to be classified as a "weak woman".
In this era, women stay at home. Perhaps, this is the best way to return the command to Mullah.
Although love is the most suitable weapon for women, Mullah does not lack love. Mullah needs a lot of respect.
The notice said that the French army held an olive branch in one hand and a sword of victory in the other.
But Besarilius said that he held inescapable destruction in one hand and peace and tranquility in the other.
Both the sword of victory and the sword of justice need someone to hold it. Justinian had a good general so that he would not be overthrown by the emperor who came out of the military camp like the Western Roman emperor after summoning Bessalius back. They had crossed the Rubicon many times, and they never hesitated like Caesar.
When Hercules wanted the golden apple, he asked Atlas to take it for him. During this period, Hercules would hold up the sky in Atlas's place. However, when Atlas got the golden apple, Atlas no longer wanted to hold up the sky. This was originally a punishment, which was sent down by Zeus on the Titan gods.
A prison is a prison, even if Calypso arranges it into a dream garden.
Dionysus also has a motto, don't drink too much or revel, lest people see you for who you are, not what you pretend to be.
Bronze is a mirror that reflects the appearance, and wine is a mirror that reflects the heart.
In fact, she was originally a hedonist, so she wanted to turn Elba into Valhalla.
"My father doesn't want his letter to be made public." A young man suddenly said.
Georgiana looked at him.
It was Eugène Beauharnais, who looked like a palace page.
"Why are you here?" asked Georgiana.
"I received the transfer order, and my father asked me to go to Corcyra Island." Eugene said.
Corfu Island is the name of Corfu before it was occupied by the British. It is located in the Ionian Sea, with Albania on the other side. The key point is that it strangles the Strait of Otlando, which is the necessary way to enter and exit the Adriatic Sea. passing place.
All eastern Mediterranean goods were shipped to Trieste, from which they were shipped to Vienna and then via Strasbourg into Western Europe.
"If the British withdraw their troops from Malta, we will also withdraw. In the Treaty of Amiens, we recognized the Republic of Cypress." Eugene said.
It was a small country composed of several islands in the Ionian Sea, but it was the first political power established after the fall of Constantinople - under the protection of Tsarist Russia.
Originally, this place belonged to France and was confirmed in the Treaty of Campo Formio. However, the local residents did not like the French tax system and drove them away. Paul I took the opportunity to occupy the place.
"What will happen to Italy when you leave?" Georgiana asked.
"My father told me to talk less and study more, and not to speak at state meetings. They think I am here because of those letters. I have a room that no one is allowed to enter." Eugene said plainly, "I just need to be kind to the people." Just get to know them, know their names, don’t express too much enthusiasm for strangers, and don’t trust them.”
"That's what he taught you, what do you think?" Georgiana asked.
"He is right. Melchi does not want Italy to become a democratic country. He only wants to establish an aristocratic oligarchy. Unfortunately, the aristocracy does not buy his account." Eugene said.
She wasn't too surprised.
"I don't want you to go to Corfu..."
"It's Corcyra Island." Eugene corrected.
"Italy is yours, I'm here to play." Georgiana said, "It's up to men to do the work of holding the sky up."
"If you give birth to a child, this crown will belong to him." Eugene said.
She found it extremely ridiculous.
"What's so funny?" Ou Ren asked.
"I can't have a boy," she said calmly. "I'm a monster called a Veela."
Eugene stared at her.
That was not what she really meant. If the French Republic could not give him a life-long term, he would still be able to continue to be "president" in the constitutional monarchy of Italy when his term expires in 10 years. But now she is very worried that Bonaparte's career will be delayed. over.
"Do you still love him?" Eugene asked, "that wizard with black hair and black eyes."
"He didn't come to me, why do I love him?" she said expressionlessly.
"He came to see you?" Ou Ren asked.
"I told Leon that I would not let him down," she said tiredly.
"This seems to be what a man says to a woman." Eugene said.
"As you like," said Georgiana, putting the wax on the envelope and stamping it with her own seal.
"I have a secret channel. I write to my father every day, but he doesn't want others to know that we are communicating." Eugene said, "Do you want to use it?"
She threw the letter to Eugene.
She still wanted to retain some privacy, or she felt that it was not a good habit to open other people's letters privately.
Eugene left with the letter, like a messenger.
"By the way, don't investigate the French army's smuggling." Eugene said before leaving, "The military police are under my control."
Then he disappeared.
She looked at the direction in which Eugene disappeared, not sure whether she should write another reply, because Bonaparte might not receive this letter.
Then she thought, why does a girl care so much? So she got up and took the child.
