Harry Potter Morning Light

Chapter 691: The Magic Table

According to travel magazines, the highest peak in Germany is Zugspitze, and the nearest town is Greilau, which is also a famous tourist attraction.

However, just north of Grainau, there is a valley called Grasse, and in the valley there is a palace named Linderhof. Although it was built later than Neuschwanstein Castle, it is the only royal palace. The palace building that was completed during his lifetime was still built by the fairy tale king Ludwig II.

There are many countries in the feudal society, and many of them perished because of large-scale construction, but the German king did not die because of luxury. Today, the palace built by Ludwig II is still the pride of the Germans.

Ludwig II succeeded to the throne in 1864 at the age of 18. He was not only king, but also young and handsome, which made him very popular both in Bavaria and abroad.

Although one of the first issues upon ascending the throne was the expectations of the court and the people to produce a royal heir, Ludwig II never married. He was once engaged to his cousin Princess Sophie Charlotte of Bavaria, but the wedding date was repeatedly postponed, and finally the engagement was canceled by Ludwig II. Sophie married Ferdinand Philippe Marie, Duke of Alençon, also known as The fuse of World War I, the assassinated Archduke Ferdinand.

In all fairy tales, the prince and the princess are "happily together" at the end, and the story ends abruptly. However, fairy tales cannot bear to describe whether they are happy or not in the end.

Mary of France and Louis XVI got married, but their story did not end here. The main part of Linderhof Palace has traces of imitation of the Palace of Versailles in France. It is a treasure in Rococo architecture. There are Italian, French and English gardens of different styles, dotted with fountains, ponds and flashy ornamental buildings in the gardens, which have nothing to do with the practicality that the Germans have always advocated.

He doesn't marry women, but he is very close to Thun and Paul of the Taxis family. It is said that the two of them are actually lovers.

They often read poetry together and played roles in Wagner's operas, but they did not stay together for life. François Weber was once rumored to have a close relationship with the emperor.

Beginning in 1869, he wrote in his diary his distress over his deviant sexuality, hoping to curb this unholy desire to "return to Catholicism."

Since humans no longer regard homosexuality as a sin, the legalization of gay marriage has become a difficult problem.

There are no heirs involved in marriage without husband's rights, and neither is gay marriage. However, the laws of various countries do not allow homosexuals to simply adopt or find a surrogate mother. Their marriage is not a marriage, but a cohabitation outside of marriage. Even in France, which is relatively open, there are quite a few people who oppose the legalization of homosexuality.

As a king, Ludwig II had to have children, but the handsome king liked homosexuality. Even if he hoped to curb this evil desire, it was difficult to achieve. He became depressed, and Ludwig was obsessed with music Culture, keen to build castle palaces. Building these castles not only drained Ludwig's private wealth, but also swallowed up a large amount of the state budget. Due to his growing debts, Ludwig's ministers and relatives arranged a hasty mental test for him in January 1886, resulting in Ludwig being diagnosed as insane and unfit to run the country. So the lonely, autocratic king moved to a mental hospital converted from a castle by Lake Starnberg. On the night of June 13, 1886, Ludwig and his doctor went for a walk by the lake, but neither of them returned, and there were only a few watery footprints where he fell and drowned.

Before moving to the mental hospital, the king stayed in Linderhof for a while. At that time, he became very ill. He became more and more reluctant to show up. Dine and start living a nocturnal life like a vampire.

Irish author Bram Stoker wrote a novel called "Dracula" in 1897. Count Dracula in the novel is a bloodthirsty vampire who preys on young beautiful women. They will also look for handsome young people as targets.

These night creatures don't necessarily live in Gothic castles, they may also live in Rococo palaces. Compared with werewolves, their lives are really much better.

After the train passes the Zugspitze, it is considered to have entered the territory of vampires. They are nocturnal and will not come out during the day.

The passengers in the second-class car played the guitar and sang together. This time it was not girls who sang, but a group of young men. They sang in German. Pomona could not understand a word, but she was not in the mood to care.

She was looking at the scene in the vanity mirror.

Severus bought her long earrings with hexagonal snowflakes on a long chain. Although she was not tall, she had a long neck like a swan. She had tried Animagus before, but regretted it at the last minute Well, Animagus will always leave a little bit of animal characteristics, it is a good thing that she inherited the neck of a swan, and did not leave flat feet like duck feet.

He didn't use a needle to pierce her ear. He rubbed the earlobe with his index finger and thumb, and there was a hot red spot on the ear, which looked like bright red blood.

Silver chains and pure crystals form a cold and pure color, just like the venue of the Triwizard Tournament Yule Ball.

Linderhof Palace strongly pursues the grotesque and complicated Rococo style, mixed with oriental colors, just like the luxury private rooms of the "Orient Express" they are in at the moment.

It's just that the dining room of the Linderhof Palace is a beautiful oval with a shiny red interior, while their box is rectangular and the furniture is green.

"Do you like it?" After he put on the earrings, he looked in the mirror with her. A middle-aged man with a haggard face and a beautiful girl of fifteen or sixteen looked extremely mismatched.

But in fact she was older than him, and she should be the one who was really cursed.

"What are they singing?" Pomona asked, feeling that she was dressed too modernly at the moment and that she should wear something more classic.

"A tale of a banshee." He laid his pale, ugly face beside her. "Once upon a time, on a lonely night in December, I walked on an ancient path, and the moonlight shone through the clouds, Light up the forest, light up the valley, light up the field, I walk alone in this silence, the endless scenery is all around me, just when the vision is dim, I see a ray of light, there is a woman under the moon I danced, I watched the show in awe, I was so moved by what I saw, I told my friends what I saw, but their replies gave me the creeps, it was actually a young and beautiful Banshee, she is cursed to dance only in the shadow of the old oak under which she died, oh, so long ago."

"Where do you think the ghost of Ludwig II will be? On Lake Starnberg, or in Linderhof Castle, Neuschwanstein Castle?" She flipped through the color-printed travel magazine, Linderhof The castle is really gorgeous, but too small, not as big as the Palace of Versailles, but there are fountains and artificial stalactite caves named after Venus, and the background behind the golden shell boat depicts Wagner's opera "Tannhauser". The protagonist of the story is in the arms of Mrs. Venus in Huishou Mountain. The rotation of colored glass pieces driven by the earliest engine produced changing light effects, allowing the king to experience the dreamlike kaleidoscope.

"Don't you think, that table that sends food up, it looks like a Hogwarts table?" He took her hand "Bracelets, rings, necklaces, earrings, let me see what else you can wear ?”

"I don't need that much jewelry." She turned her gaze to his dark eyes.

"It's just crystal, not real jewelry." Severus murmured, staring into her blue eyes. "I'm not that old fool who would let such a beautiful woman go to waste wearing a muddy gown." .”

"He wants me to read more... If I were as ugly as a hag, would you be looking at me like this?" she said through tears.

"I've heard a ballad, too long, I can't remember. There was a boy, in love with a girl, who was perfect except for her integrity. The boy was hopelessly in love with her, Do you know how he ended up?" He waved the snowflake pendant on her ear and continued, "His blood stained the snow red, and he wailed before dying, she was a beautiful monster, but if we had more Such a beautiful monster would be nice."

"Why?"

"Because we fools wouldn't be fighting over her," Severus said with a smile.

She wanted to say she wasn't a monster, but she was, and denying it would be like Remus Lupin denying his werewolf status.

"In 1239 A.D., there lived a girl of royal blood. According to ancient stories, she was the most beautiful girl. In a castle made of stone, she slept alone every night. Even the dead could wake up. Can't wake her up." Severus picked her up from under his knees as he sang, "I won't let you sleep alone every night, senpai."

"Don't go to the bedroom." She pointed to the desk and said, "Go there."

"Yes, ma'am," he said with a wild smile.

"No, call me Knox." She imitated Vivien Leigh's eyes and squinted at him provocatively.

Tonks, who looks like a bad girl, likes to greet people with fluorescent lights, and Pomona is a bad girl who looks good.

There are three children in that family, two boys are so naughty, but the girl is very well-behaved, it's not that she is really well-behaved, but that she likes to listen to adults' praise.

Daddy's compliment is very important to a little girl, do you understand, Tom?

If you do have a daughter remember to compliment her a lot, it is really important to her, very, very important, and she will do anything to get compliments, including some "bad things".
