HP: By the lake of Snake Garden, flowers bloom on the other side

Lilac knew that Dumbledore's act of forcing Trelawney to stay was a slap in the face to Fudge. Would Fudge remain indifferent after being slapped in the face?

Obviously not.

Ministry of Magic.

Percy Weasley sat in his assistant's seat and listened to the sound of something breaking coming from Minister Fudge's office. Did he smash something again?

Do you want to go in?

If I go in, it won't be worth it if the anger spreads to me.

But if you don't go in, you won't know why he is so angry.

Percy wondered, could it be related to Headmaster Dumbledore again?

It's no wonder that Percy thought of Dumbledore when he saw Fudge getting angry and smashing things. It's because Fudge liked to compare himself with Dumbledore and would get angry if things didn't go his way.

Why was Fudge so angry?

Let's start with Dolores Umbridge's letter.

After Dolores Umbridge was appointed as the Senior Inquisitor of Hogwarts by Cornelius Fudge, she has been investigating the teaching methods of various teachers and assessing the teaching quality.

During this period of time, she has clearly known the strengths and weaknesses of each Hogwarts teacher.

Dolores wrote a thick stack of letters, tied them into a package and mailed them to her leader.

Fudge read the letters sent by his confidants and learned many things that happened in Hogwarts that he didn't know before.

Fudge was very happy that the descendants of the famous master of divination had fallen to the point where they couldn't even predict the weather accurately.

Dumbledore is really old and blind. How can such a person stay in Hogwarts as a teacher and teach students?

Moreover, this behavior occurred more than once and involved multiple people.

Fudge knew about the filthy half-giant named Hagrid mentioned in Dolores' letter.

Because he had seen it in the newspaper before, written by Rita Skeeter.

He is still working as a teacher at Hogwarts, teaching lower grade students?

Dumbledore is not just old and blurry-eyed, he is blind and deaf.

How could he teach Care of Magical Creatures when he himself was a dangerous magical creature?

People like this should be fired.

Fudge looked at the teaching ratings of each teacher on the letters, and he felt that Severus Snape, the head of Slytherin, was the one that caught his eye.

According to Dolores, Professor Snape hated Harry Potter very much and had no good feelings towards Dumbledore.

It's not just Severus Snape who has this attitude, the entire Slytherin house hates Gryffindor house very much.

Dolores also said in the letter that she planned to use Slytherin students to suppress Gryffindor students - all Gryffindor students were loyal to Dumbledore.

The letter also stated that the hope was for more funding.

This was what Umbridge had promised to Lycoris, so she naturally had not forgotten it.

Fudge approved all the requests and sent the letter back.

He leaned back in his chair smugly, thinking that Dumbledore could only watch him drive away his followers.

As a result, the letter Dolores sent again said that Dumbledore used his power as the headmaster to keep everyone here, and was so angry that he smashed a set of tea sets, which was the sound Percy heard outside.

Percy decided to go in and find out what was going on.

"Boom boom boom——"

Fudge was so angry that he leaned back in his chair, staring coldly at the door, as if he wanted to stare through the door to see who had the eyesight to knock on it.

Percy made sure he heard it, so he stopped knocking and waited quietly for him to call him in.

Fudge regained his composure and said coldly, "Come in."

The red-haired young man standing in front of Fudge reminded him of Dumbledore's auburn hair when he was young, which made him feel a little more irritated.

It wasn't worth suppressing his emotions, so Fudge said coldly, "What's the matter?"

"Minister, the new money you approved for Hogwarts has already started the process. Do you need to speed it up?" This was the reason Percy had thought of before he came in.

Appropriate money? Appropriate shit money!

That old guy Dumbledore openly went against me, and yet he still wanted funding?

Fudge was so angry that he almost laughed.

I remembered that Dolores had just said that Dumbledore used his status as the headmaster to pressure Trelawney to stay, and that she had no right to control whether Trelawney lived in Hogwarts.

The Ministry of Magic has officially dismissed her, so she is no longer a teacher at Hogwarts. Trelawney is even more useless to Hogwarts if she is not a teacher, but the old man insists on keeping her.

Isn't that just deliberately going against yourself?

"No need." Fudge sneered and looked up at Percy. "I think Dumbledore is very capable. Why does he need our money?"

The sarcastic voice made Percy certain that it was Dumbledore who made him angry.

"Okay, Minister, I'll get the money back right away." Percy took a quill and wrote it down on the parchment, then prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Fudge suddenly stopped him, and after Percy looked over in confusion, he said, "Change the money into a targeted grant."

"Targeted grant?" Percy didn't understand who he wanted to give the money to.

"Call Slytherin House, I think," Fudge knew that the young man in front of him was from Gryffindor, and paused deliberately before saying, "You should be able to do it. Go out."

No, is he sick?

What does that look mean?

Percy didn't know what to say. He just allocated money to Slytherin House and looked at me like that.

Did he remember that he was from Gryffindor and target me on purpose?

What happened to Gryffindor?

Transfiguration office.

Severus Snape stood in front of Minerva McGonagall, watching her hand over a bag.

"This is a special grant from the Ministry of Magic for you." McGonagall was also very confused as to why it was only given to Severus.

Snape didn't answer, "Why give it to me?"

"I want to know too. The reason for the special fund is to purchase raw materials for potions, but..." McGonagall put the money in front of him and took out a piece of paper and pushed it over. "The child said that Fudge said it can only be used for Slytherin House."

Snape glanced at McGonagall and picked up the note. The handwriting was neat and clear. It was clear who wrote it, Percy from the Weasley family.

Why did he privately say that the money was for Slytherin? He was from Gryffindor, so it was more normal to give it to Gryffindor.

I'm afraid it wasn't what he meant.

"Does Dumbledore know?" Snape picked up the money and planned to go over and ask if the old bee didn't know.

"I know. I've already asked." McGonagall was speechless. Why did Fudge suddenly target her own house? "He said that if he wanted to give it to Slytherin, then give it to Slytherin."

"Got it." Snape took the money. Since the old bee didn't mind, he would accept it.

Anyway, you need to buy raw materials to make potions, and everyone can use the finished potions.

"Sev," McGonagall shouted after him, "Dumbledore said that it can only be used by Slytherin House."
