Chapter 1391: The Battle of a Thousand Years Ago

The two guys talking outside are members of the Malfoy family and the Peverell family, plus the Black family, the Stinchkom family, the Ravenclaw family, the Slytherin family, and the Hufflepuff family they mentioned, these seven pure-blood wizarding families control more than half of the current Presbyterian Council (the predecessor of the Ministry of Magic) in the wizarding governing body, and have a strong power.

Each of the seven pure-blood wizard families has a glorious history that can be traced upwards.

In ancient magical history or legends, the names of these seven families are resounding.

However, in later generations, only the Black and Malfoy families survived.

The surnames of the remaining five families have all disappeared into the long river of time and become part of history.

Of course, although the family name has disappeared, the descendants who have passed down their lineage still exist.

As far as Evan knows, the Potters are supposed to be descendants of the Stinchkum and Peverell families.

Because Harry inherited the Cloak of Invisibility, one of the Three Hallows of Death, this is the most direct proof of this.

Also, another Death Triple Hallows Resurrection Stone has been circulating among the Gaunt family, the descendants of Slytherin.

Therefore, the Gaunt family can also be said to be the descendants of the Peverell family.

This is the most direct evidence of the lineage, in fact, Peverell is a very large pure-blood wizard family, and they frequently intermarry with other pure-blood wizard families, so much so that many wizards advertise that they have Peverell blood. In addition, the Black and Malfoy families have a habit of intermarrying for generations, and the Bones family also has Ravenclaw blood, and the Hufflepuff family is descended......

All in all, this kind of blood inheritance is difficult to sort out.

Intermarriage between pure-blood wizarding families is very common, and if you think about it, the number of wizards is actually not very large, and if you insist on not marrying Muggles, then there are only a handful of people of the right age to marry, and there is not much choice.

Large families usually choose to marry members of the same large families, or, to choose those who are gifted wizards.

Even after a thousand years, the pure-blood wizarding family is still a very narrow circle, but the complexity of the internal relations within this small circle is beyond imagination, and it is a match for the chaos of those Muggle nobles.

The key to whether one's ideas and ideas can be recognized and implemented depends on one's own strength.

A noble bloodline or something, if you can't inherit the bloodline magic, it's actually worthless.

Especially in the Middle Ages, this relationship of relying on strength and weakness was even more obvious.

Why are the seven pure-blood wizarding families able to control the Council of Elders, because their seven families are now the strongest.

The emergence and rise of Hogwarts has upset the current balance in the wizarding world to a certain extent.

In particular, Rowena Ravenclaw and Salazar Slytherin are two wizards with great ideas.

Creating Hogwarts was only the first step, and their ultimate goal was to change the wizarding world.

Through the conversation between the two people outside, the information he knew, and the subsequent development of history, Evan briefly sorted out the current situation.

Hogwarts and the wizarding families behind them represent open forces, and they are even willing to share valuable magical knowledge for the development of the wizarding world, with slightly different ideas, Slytherin hopes that the wizarding world can develop in an orderly manner and exclude Muggles, while Gryffindor, Hufflepuff and Ravenclaw advocate the acceptance of Muggles, which is their main internal disagreement, but the interests of the four are currently the same.

The old pure-blood wizarding families of the Malfoys, Blacks, and Peverells advocated conservatism. They uphold the idea of pure-blood supremacy, rejecting the acceptance of Muggles, rejecting the establishment of wizarding prisons, rejecting the enforcement of laws restricting pure-blood wizards, rejecting Hogwarts as a way of teaching, and rejecting all changes......

For the next thousand years, the wizarding world has been at loggerheads.

By the way, there is also the Stinchkum family, whose attitude is unknown.

However, judging from the subsequent situation, they should also support reform and opening up.

The ancestors of the Potter family were a member of the Stinchkum family in the thirteenth century, a Potions Master who loved the seclusion of the countryside and was called Potter by his Muggle neighbors because he was always friendly and absent-minded.

Later, he simply changed his surname to Potter as a way to prove that he had no ties to the Stinchkum family.

Because at that time, the British wizarding world and the whole country were mired in a protracted war, which was also the most powerful period of family power reshuffle, and many old pure-blood wizarding families died out during this period.

Come to think of it, the once prominent Peverell family doesn't even have a male member, and can only rely on female members to inherit the family and inherit the Deathly Hallows, and it was at that time that the Potter family obtained the Invisibility Cloak, so this ancestor of the Potter family changed his surname and escaped the fate of having to fight on the battlefield, it is difficult to comment on his cowardice or sanity in this behavior, but the Potter family has been passed down because of this, and has not died out with the Stinchkum family and the Peverell family.

Outside the door, the conversation rang out again.

"We are different from your family, Malfoy, the Peverell family is the oldest pure-blood wizard family, our heritage and strength are beyond your imagination, there are still people in our family who inherit blood magic......" The Peverell family boy said, "But it's not me, don't talk about this, what are you going to do?"

"Our purpose is the same, Clive, I suppose even the ancient and noble Peverell family doesn't want the Elders to pass this proposal, right?" Otherwise, it won't be long before the prison called Azkaban will be filled with people from the pure-blood wizard family. Come to think of it, in that stupid law they proposed, we even broke the law by killing Muggles, so what else could wizards do?!

"Well, you have a point. ”

"So, we have to come together this time. Malfoy lowered his voice and said, "My father has started to unite this matter, and there is nothing wrong with your family, but he wrote to me last time that the Black family is still a little uncertain whether to support us or Hogwarts, and they have a good relationship with the Ravenclaw family, and my father is ready to ...... through a marriage."

"What?!Anne is my fiancée!"

"That's wishful thinking, Clive, there is no precedent for intermarriage between the Black and Pever families, on the contrary, the Malfoys and the Black family are intermarried. There was a long pause in the oily tone.

Evan shook his head, the same Malfoy he was familiar with, the ancestor of the Malfoy family was very good at demagogy.

Clive Peverell, who spoke to him, was no match at all, and he guided the conversation.

It shouldn't be long before you're bewitched by Malfoy.

Sure enough, only Malfoy's voice was heard continuing to sound, "That's what my father intended, to deepen the relationship between the two families through a marriage. But you know my, Clive, we're old friends, and you know I'm not interested in Anne at all, so if you can help me with that at school, I'm going to convince my father not to propose to the Black family, so you have a chance, and the Malfoys will ......help you then."
