The ticking sound of horse hooves hit the square of Whitehall. Snape drove the carriage slowly forward on the road. The speed was not fast, but no one dared to overtake his car.
After all, those who can come to Whitehall are discerning. The decoration on the car tells everyone that this car belongs to the Earl of Wilt family and not everyone can touch it.
Snape, who was driving the car, asked Lucius in the car behind him: "When did you get in touch and you were able to hide this from my closest friend?"
Snape's question was unclear, but Lucius knew what he was asking. It was just about the Muggle world and the twenty-eight pure-blood families.
Looking at the black tea without a ripple in front of him, Lucius said: "Severus, you are my best friend. The Malfoy family has never betrayed a friend. There is one thing you need to know. I, Lucius, Malfoy will not harm you, after all, we are true friends."
Snape's eyes flashed for a while, but in the end he said nothing.
Instead, he recalled the time when he met Zhuo Qun.
That was a month ago. He had just finished his Potions class, and then a hole appeared in the air in front of him.
Lucius Malfoy brought Lennet and Zhuo Qun in front of him. Snape admitted that at that moment, he, the master of potions, was frightened, because in Hogwarts, apart from the headmaster, there were only domestic children. Elves can use Apparition.
He didn't think Lucius had the ability to tear apart the protection of Hogwarts, and he also knew that the apparition of house elves was not like this. Snape immediately understood that the people behind Lucius were the most important.
He knew Lennet. Although this kid had been missing for several years, he definitely didn't have such ability.
According to the elimination method, only Zhuo Qun, whom he didn't know, was left.
In terms of logical thinking, he is very confident in himself. After all, his logical thinking ability is considered to be the strongest among wizards, and it is the one that stands out among the others.
At least that was the case before Hermione Granger entered the wizarding world, otherwise Dumbledore would not have asked him to assign a logical reasoning question in the Sorcerer's Stone.
But Snape, who had such a strong logical mind, did something extremely irrational, that is, he started attacking Zhuo Qun, and he used his special skill, Shen Feng Wu Ying.
This spell is a black magic developed by him. It is said to have no counter-spell. No matter how good the medical magic is, it is useless black magic.
But when this magic hit Zhuo Qun, it didn't even scratch Zhuo Qun's clothes. This made Snape very frightened. You must know that this was his strongest attack, but it was useless. This made him He felt scared, he had never seen such a scary person, not even Dumbledore and Voldemort were so strong.
What scared Snape even more was not Zhuo Qun's magical ability (he regarded Zhuo Qun's spatial ability as magical ability), but his body. How powerful was a mage with a body comparable to that of a giant dragon? It was so terrifying that Snape couldn't even imagine it.
After Snape finished releasing the magic, he was ready to call Dumbledore. This was the privilege of the deans of the academy. They could call Dumbledore in the school, which is what Dumbledore said in the legend.
But as soon as Zhuo Qun appeared again, he sealed off the entire Potions classroom, preventing any news here from spreading.
Then Zhuo Qun threw to Snape a piece of information on human cloning technology, as well as the immortal theory of the Third World of God. Of course, it was not the orthodox immortal theory, but a theory that combined a lot of messy things. .
This theory is based on the fact that the soul of a person killed by Avada's melon-gnawing curse will be locked in the wand that killed him. Zhuo Qun also learned this from Voldemort's death in the final battle. The conclusion made by those souls coming out of the wand.
A scientific version and a mythological version are both things that can allow Snape, a licker, to see his goddess Lily Evans again. This made Snape give up after seeing the name Lily Evans Regeneration Plan. He planned to use Dumbledore to recruit him.
Zhuo Qun saw that Snape was actually a little disdainful of this person, because as a top academic and a descendant of the school director's family, he was actually bullied in school. This was the biggest joke. Although it was also the school director's family who bullied him.
But in Zhuxia, top students can only bully others, but they will not be bullied.
But I have to say that this is the Western world. Those who study well will be bullied. Who allowed you to be in a country that educates all people to be happy? Who allowed this country to implement education to educate the people, even in the magical world? Foolish education is also indispensable.
Zhuo Qun really couldn't say enough about this Snape. He was a talented person, but his weaknesses were too obvious.
After Snape read the information, Zhuo Qun projected the cloning technology. This projection was explained in detail, so Snape believed that this technology was completely feasible.
"What do you want to do?"
After watching the projection, Snape's mind regained its clarity, so he asked this question.
"At some point you will be required to agree to impeach Dumbledore and accept a new Headmaster."
After listening to Zhuo Qun's words, Snape said directly: "Impossible, I don't have this right. The dean of the college cannot impeach the principal, and the appointment of the principal has little to do with us professors."
What Snape said was true, but he didn't tell the whole story.
Zhuo Qun looked at Snape and said: "You Severus Snape are not qualified to impeach the principal, but Severus Snape Prince is qualified. After all, the Prince family Not only is it a big family in potion making, but it is also one of the twelve governors of Hogwarts that not many people know about. And you, the deans, are the first candidates for the principal, especially Professor McGonagall and you. We are all candidates, right? I still know these things."
Zhuo Qun looked at Snape who narrowed his eyes and said: "Potter, Malfoy, Prince, Black, Parkinson, Zabini, Digory, Longbottom, Greengrass, Weasley, Fleur Levi, Lovegood, aren't these the Twelve Families, I still know these."
Zhuo Qun's words not only frightened Snape, but also Lucius. He turned his head and looked at Lennet, wanting to know if it was Lennet who told Zhuo Qun the news, but Lennet looked at Lucius and shook his head seriously. Only the patriarch knew about these families, and no one else knew about them.
This was also the first time he had heard of these families. You must know that every time these families have a meeting, except for their family, all the people who go there are gloves. Who knows which families there are.
But what everyone present didn't expect was that the Weasley family, a family of only one person, would actually be a member of the school board?
And the Lovegood family, the naysayers, are actually members of the school board.
This is really not revealing the trump card, no one knows whether the other party is a god or a ghost!
It was really an eye-opener for them.
However, Snape decided after careful consideration that he would take action, and he would be the second one to take action, that is, after the Malfoy family. After all, his friendship with Lucius determined his steps. Behind Lucius, so he will come forward, but he will not cast the decisive vote.
This is his bottom line.
In this case, no one would say anything. After all, every time the school board voted, Lucius voted on his behalf.
When the two of them met, it was a noble and a lowly relationship. This was a true friendship. Now, it is a friendship that passes through the house, and the wife does not shy away from it. Therefore, there is no problem for him to keep up.
What's more important is that if he does this, even if Dumbledore is not knocked down, he and Dumbledore will not be separated.
Zhuo Qun agreed. Snape was right. If Zhuo Qun had come forward on his own, he would have acted this way, because it would not lead to a bayonet fight and a direct difference between life and death.
No matter when, it is always good to leave yourself some room.
Then Zhuo Qun went to find the Greengrass family. Only women in this family were easy to coerce. All he had to do was sell Xiaolong. Lucius was also very happy about this. After all, he was looking for his son. How could a reliable wife be unhappy?
Well, the Parkinson family can be settled directly with money. This family is now weak and needs new blood transfusions, so as long as there are enough benefits, it can be settled. As for the most troublesome families, they are Zabini, Digory, Longbottom, Weasley, Flitwick, and Lovegood.
Among them, the one Zhuo Qun doesn't want to negotiate with the most, apart from Mrs. Zabini who killed six of her husbands, is the Digory family. This family has reached a high position in the Ministry of Magic. If Zhuo Qun persuades him, Zhuo Qun needs to use the Minister of Magic. The position was used as bait, but the Minister of Magic Zhuo Qun already had a candidate in mind, so he didn't look for him.
As for the Weasleys, this family has not attended the meeting for hundreds of years. It is impossible for their sometimes die-hard Gryffindor to stab Dumbledore in the back, so they did not come to them.
As for Flitwick, all he had to do was keep the position of Dean of Ravenclaw for him, and the rest was not important.
Lovegood, a family that plays media, cannot go looking for it. Zhuo Qun doesn't want to be reported before the matter here is settled.
So after much selection, the seventh one was Longbottom.
Just do it when you think of it. This has been Zhuo Qun's style since he started working officially.
So after just negotiating with other families, Zhuo Qun took Lucius and the others to the Longbottom family.
When he got there, Zhuo Qun happened to see Augusta Longbottom, Longbottom's grandmother, using the Forgetting Curse on her grandson Neville Longbottom.
Seeing this, Zhuo Qun understood why Neville's memory was not very good. If he was often cast the forgetting spell, his memory would also become worse.
"Lucius? I don't remember inviting you!" Augusta was not surprised when she saw Lucius suddenly appearing in her home. She just adjusted her clothes and held the The wand aimed at Lucius was a quick imprisonment.
Then a rope shot out from the top of Augusta's wand and flew towards Lucius.
Lucius looked at the rope flying towards him, which was full of obstacles. He stopped the rope in the air, and then arranged an armor protection for himself.
Then he saluted Augusta.
"Mrs. Augusta, please forgive me for my presumptuous visit. I am here for something that requires an interview with you. Please allow me to introduce Mr. Zhuo Qun to you."
After finishing speaking, Lucius stepped aside and let Zhuo Qun behind him out.
"It seems that your Malfoy family has found a new master. This is indeed a Malfoy family that is good at betrayal."
Augusta looked at Zhuo Qun. She didn't know Zhuo Qun, but this did not prevent her from knowing Zhuo Qun's identity, the new master of the Malfoy family.
After saying this, Lucius did not refute, but Zhuo Qun stood up and said: "Mr. Lucius and I are just partners. There is no such thing as master or master. We are equal friends."
"I understand. Voldemort and his men are all equal friends. I still know this."
Mrs. Augusta looked at Lucius standing behind Zhuo Qun and nodded.
After hearing this, Lucius's face did not change at all, which made Zhuo Qun feel that Lucius was a person who could be reused.
"I'm here to ask you to come forward and work with Lucius and the others to impeach Dumbledore as Headmaster of Hogwarts."
"Lucius and the others? Who are they you are talking about?"
Mrs. Augusta heard the key immediately. Lucius and them, she thought, at least several of them had agreed to the impeachment case, but she wanted to know who was involved in this matter.
After all, their family is also a family loyal to Dumbledore, at least on the surface, and it will still be like this before Neville comes of age. Only in this way can the Longbottom family maintain its current situation.
Otherwise, without the young and middle-aged Longbottom, he would be just a piece of fat meat that would be eaten by others.
"The Potters, the Malfoys, the Princes, the Blacks, the Parkinsons, and the Greengrasses all agreed."
After hearing the six names, Mrs. Augusta shouted, "Impossible. The Potter family has no adult heirs. Only the child Harry Potter is left. The vote of their family is You can't get it from Dumbledore's own hands."
Augusta knew very well what was going on with the Potter family. Not only was the Potter family’s votes in Dumbledore’s hands, but the rich assets were also in Dumbledore’s hands, and Dumbledore The secret society that was able to maintain the Order of the Phoenix in these ten years relied on the resources of the Potter family.
Therefore, this vote cannot be taken out.
"The pure-blood oath signed by the twenty-eight pure-blood families! The Black family and the Potter family are related by marriage, and the one who can be the master of the Black family now is my wife Narcissa Black Malfoy!"
Lucius watched Mrs. Augusta say the pure-blood oath.
"Is that so?" Mrs. Augusta nodded, but she still felt that there was no need for the Longbottom family to be with them, because she did not need to go against Dumbledore, "But why should I, the Longbottom family, want to fight with you?" Let’s impeach Dumbledore together, knowing that our family is also a member of the Order of the Phoenix.”
Mrs. Augusta took her wand and cast a silent levitating spell on the teapot, and at the same time cast a blazing fire on the bottom of the teapot, so that the tea in the teapot would be hot when poured out.
This easily demonstrated her magic skills. Mrs. Augusta felt that this move should make the young man in front of her consider whether he should do something with her.
"I can make your son and daughter-in-law regain their sanity and come out of St. Mungo's and become normal people again. This is the condition I offer."
After Zhuo Qun finished speaking, Mrs. Augusta shuddered and the wand in her hand fell to the ground. At the same time, the teapot in the air also lost its magical support and fell to the ground.
Just when the teapot was about to fall to the ground, Zhuo Qun stretched out his hand to hold the hot teapot. Then he looked at Mrs. Augusta and said: "I can help Alice Longbottom regain her consciousness first. This is a bit of sincerity on my part. It also shows my ability. After doing this, we are discussing the issue of getting rid of Dumbledore. How about it?"
