Get out of the bathroom, put a bath towel over your head, and change into pajamas. Phoenix hugged Hermione from behind, her short, neck-length hair wet and stuck to her face.

"Don't make a fuss. She was applying dark red gel to her face.

"I know that the call for me to be emperor has been very high at home recently, and they can't hold it back. He said with his chin resting on Hermione's shoulder.

Hermione's movements came to an abrupt halt. She turned her head to look at Phoenix, not knowing what to answer for a moment. In her heart, she wanted to become a queen. When she was in school, Phoenix was always the prince charming in the hearts of girls, young and golden, noble-born, and the triwizard champion. Cedric, who was several grades above him, was more handsome than Phoenix, but he couldn't do anything else. If there are regrets, this prince charming does not have the title of "prince".

The little girlish feeling that remains in my heart can't wait for Phoenix to be crowned immediately. But she's not a brainless girl after all. This matter is by no means as simple as it seems.

Witches in the wizarding world are also a fighting force, and naturally have considerable rights in the family, and husband and wife are one. The same is true in the Peverell family, where any words Hermione says will be taken as the patriarch's opinion. Since marrying into the Peverell family, she has been cautious, and she has always been vague about this matter, never taking a stand. Now that Phoenix was asking about it, it made her hesitate.

Removing the romantic feelings in her heart, she hopes to become the queen, and there is another reason. If a new government of wizards and Muggles coexisted following the model of the Ministry of Magic, Phoenix would inevitably hold a key position, usually the highest position related to law, regardless of the form of government used.

In this way, Hermione will never be able to realize her political ideals, and there is no such situation that the supreme leader and the ** official are husband and wife in that government. It's so blatant that it can't be accepted by the people, whether it's legal or not. Phoenix, as the patriarch, must hold an important position, otherwise resignation is tantamount to abdication.

Hermione needs to make a sacrifice!

She sees it very clearly, and she is willing to give up her political ideals and be a housewife with peace of mind. But if the new government were to adopt a monarchy or a constitutional monarchy, Phoenix would be emperor, but he was by no means a man who was willing to deal with complicated affairs, even if the country was his, he would not be happy to run. But on the other hand, he will never give up the power in his hands. Just like Phoenix never managed all kinds of affairs within the family, Hermione took care of it for him for a long time, working in the Ministry of Magic during the day to handle official affairs, and at night when he came home from work to deal with private affairs.

Without this upheaval, this state of affairs could have continued into their later years.

When you become a queen, you don't have all kinds of worries. She could exert a beneficial influence on the new empire, integrate her ideas of "equality, justice, and the rule of law" into the new state, and become the emperor's private secretary and adviser.

Just like Queen Victoria and Prince Albert.

"Do you want to be a queen?" he asked softly.

Hermione wanted to say yes, but the word got stuck in her throat. Anyway, she had selfish intentions, but she didn't want them to affect Phoenix.

"They think too far ahead, a country is not something that can be built casually. This takes time and requires careful research. You know, what is going on with the magician government, to put it nicely, free, to say that it is chaotic. The first thing a country needs to do is to legislate, but is the time ripe for legislation now? As we all know, legislation is a very serious matter, and the laws that have been enacted cannot be enforced at all, or are very difficult to enforce, and basically become of no practical significance. ”

He lit a cigarette, white smoke lingering overhead.

"Then there is the thinking within the family, which is too arrogant. It seems that we have a chance to win, and this matter will at least be mentioned when the situation becomes clear. ”

Hermione nodded in agreement.

At first, Hermione felt that their parents' fears were reasonable, and that the family would not accept a woman of her origin as a noble lady. But after a period of contact, she understood. Even if the Granger family is a large family of nine generations of pure-blood wizards, the Peverell family still looks down on them.

They have been in Europe and the United States for thousands of years, and their self-respecting mentality has long been deeply rooted in the bone marrow. Even if the war started badly, the Ministry of Magic was completely destroyed, and a third of the military power was directly lost. A hundred years of painstaking management in various ministries of magic have come to naught. Most of the family still thinks this is just a minor setback.

"Arrogance is the most dangerous thing more than anything else. With this mentality, I am not optimistic about participating in this "feast of power redistribution". ”

Hermione said nervously, "Is it that serious?"

Phoenix snuffed out the cigarette butt and did not answer.

"Rest early, tomorrow is going to be a tough battle. ”

Phoenix lay on the bed and drifted off to sleep.

The deafening sound of music in the darkness woke the entire castle, and Hermione shook his shoulder. "Phoenix," she whispered, "Phoenix wake up!"

He sat up weakly and looked out at the dark sky, and the sound of music resounded through the night sky, wild and hurried. He heard the shouts of the people, the clash of weapons, the neighing of horses.

"Is the army drilling?" he said, "tomorrow we will send troops to Aachen, what are you doing?"

"This is an urgent call to assemble!" reminded Hermione.

There's another one she didn't say, but Phoenix knew it. The emergency assembly represents a clarion call before the start of the war, and the war with a certain military group will start immediately, not too far, and even the other side will already have troops in the city.

She quickly pulled Phoenix up and began to put on his armor.

Phoenix's armor was even more dazzling than Hermione's gilded suit, and his large cloak was woven from countless gold threads, which were specially treated to make it difficult to float up no matter what, although it was a little less handsome, but it was safer and avoided the space of the cloak floating and leaking. A pair of little phoenixes lying on their shoulders, corresponding to each other, seem to be ready to fly high at any time. They form a magical defense barrier with a viper on the helmet that erects the front of the body. After putting on the helmet, the poisonous snake hissed and rang non-stop.

"Shut up!" Phoenix said irritably. Sometimes the activation of some items is annoying.

His armor looked like it was silver, and it didn't seem reassuring. The protection at the joints is made from the eggshell of the feathered serpent, which is forged by the elves. Protects against a lot of ray-type spells without compromising flexibility.

Watson broke in, already armed.

"What's going on?" Phoenix asked.

"The Count of Roland set out in the starry night, raided the headquarters of the French Provisional Ministry of Magic, and sent a detachment of divisions, less than 10 kilometers to the north, in battle formation. ”

"That's called Rudolph or something, what the hell is going on, such a bull B. Phoenix raised an eyebrow. The Temporary Ministry of Magic definitely can't count on it, and it kills two forces one after another, and it seems that the people of the Frankish Kingdom are at least not mediocre.
