Chapter 67: A Dramatically Changed Plot (Part II)

But the Hufflepuffs weren't angry, after all, the badger house students always preferred the delicious food at the banquet, and they just waited for Dumbledore to announce the start of the meal.

Second-to-last Ravenclaw is also not obsessed with the House Cup itself, Ravenclaw advocates knowledge, speculation and creativity, but has no baggage for honor.

The Gryffindors who finished second were almost everyone reluctant, but there was nothing they could do. Because Professor McGonagall was not as protective as Professor Snape, but was even more strict with the students of her own house.

The winning Slytherin's table erupted in thunderous cheers and stamping.

Dumbledore held up a hand. The auditorium fell silent again.

"It's been a really good year."

Dumbledore smiled and said, "Slytherin has won the House Cup seven years in a row, which is a very remarkable achievement. I have a few other things to announce. ”

The seniors began to whisper to each other because the principal had never said anything else at the House Cup ceremony.

"First of all, I would like to announce to you that Professor Luo Cheng, who taught the Ideological and Moral Education class at Hogwarts this year, has achieved remarkable educational results this year, and both Hogwarts and the Ministry of Magic have highly affirmed Professor Luo Cheng's teaching standards. According to Minister Fudge's latest Education Order 19, Moral Mind will be made compulsory at Hogwarts, and classes will be expanded from being limited to students from the fifth year onwards to all grades. ”

Luo Cheng waved to all the students in the auditorium from the teacher's seat. This appointment was the result of his activities, and after a detailed discussion with Nicol Lemay, he drafted a plan for what he called "cognitive warfare". At the beginning of the plan, he vigorously denigrated Dumbledore, saying that his many years of love for the position of Headmaster of Hogwarts were not simply a love for education, but a deeper purpose - to influence generations of students by taking charge of Hogwarts, so as to control the entire British wizarding world from the source and become an uncrowned king!

This undoubtedly hit Fudge's long-standing worries: Dumbledore actually shirked it many times when he wanted to come to such a good position as the Minister of Magic, which was either a brain problem or a bigger conspiracy. And Dumbledore, as the greatest magician who relied on this century, obviously couldn't have a problem with his brain, then there was a bigger conspiracy.

More than a year into his tenure, Fudge has been pondering why Dumbledore refused to be Minister for Magic, and whether there was a larger conspiracy behind his refusal?

This thought made Cornelius Fudge sleep.

And Luo Cheng's vicious speculation about Dumbledore at the beginning of this "cognitive warfare plan" fell into the hands of Cornelius Fudge: no wonder this old guy left the minister to be a headmaster, and his feelings are that he doesn't look down on this ministerial position that will be constrained by all forces, but wants to be the uncrowned king who says everything!

Fudge had been a minister for a year, and he felt the difficulties of his predecessor, Millison Barnold. He asked himself that he was already a diligent minister, but he also had a headache in the face of all kinds of complicated affairs. Some inhuman sapient races are very unhappy with the title of magical creatures, and they demand equal status with wizards; There is an increasing number of wizards who abuse magic on Muggle items, causing a lot of trouble; Wizengamot often questioned himself over a trivial matter; Even the employees of the Ministry of Magic are demanding a proportional salary increase every year!

As a result, the Ministry of Magic's budget is getting higher and higher every year, and the deficit is severe. And the goblins control Gringotts, and even the Ministry of Magic can't interfere with Gringotts' monetary policy. Therefore, although Cornelius Fudge is a minister, he also has to find the pure-blood family in person. For example, Lucius Malfoy, Fudge is also from a wizarding family, and of course he knows the details and demands of those pure-blood families. So even though those people are not very clean, for the sake of Jin Garon, Fudge has to turn a blind eye.

The "cognitive combat plan" provided by Luo Cheng is undoubtedly hugely attractive to Cornelius Fudge. Since Dumbledore could, Cornelius Fudge could also exert influence on the students of Hogwarts by making the Moral Mind class a permanent compulsory course.
