At this moment, in the Malfoy Manor in Wiltshire, England, the atmosphere was tense.
All the house elves in the manor were cautious. They looked at the door of the master's study in horror, not daring to make the slightest sound for fear of accidentally disturbing the master.
The study was a spacious circular room with luxurious decorations.
The main colors were dark green and silver, and there was luxurious furniture, a marble fireplace, and a gilded mirror.
Directly above the ceiling was a precious crystal chandelier, and the floor tiles were covered with gorgeous carpets. On the huge bookshelves that surrounded most of the room, they were filled with out-of-print magic books, and next to them hung more than a dozen portraits. They were all of the patriarchs of the Malfoy Family.
Under the portrait, Lucius Malfoy looked gloomily at the flames in the fireplace. From the expression on his face, one could tell that he was in a very bad mood.
He had just received a letter, and the content of the letter was very simple. The group of old guys from the Committee on Dealing with Dangerous Creatures said that they would return all the gold coins he had given them. This meant that they would refuse to support his decision to kill the Hippogriff Winged Beast.
Unbelievable, they actually refused to give up on the Malfoy Family?!
If this had happened in the past, it would have been unimaginable.
Lucius originally thought that the group of politicians in the Ministry of Magic had always been under his control. With the prestige and money of the Malfoy Family, he was like a fish in water.
Even 12 years ago, when The Dark Lord failed to escape, the power of the Malfoy Family was not affected in the slightest.
But now, they actually refused to help him?!
A bitter smile appeared on Lucius's face. He wanted to do something, but he found that he couldn't do anything.
In recent years, the reputation of the Malfoy Family was indeed not as good as before. Until now, he was so weak that he couldn't even kill a winged Hippogriff.
"Damn it, it's all because of that damned Dumbledore and those filthy mudbloods!" Lucius said in exasperation.
In his opinion, this was all Dumbledore's doing.
The days of the pureblood families were getting harder and harder. Their status was getting worse and worse. On the other hand, the Muggle mudbloods were getting more and more powerful.
Lucius suddenly missed the days when The Dark Lord was still around. Although he did not have a good impression of Lord Voldemort, the latter's philosophy was what the pureblood family really needed. They were the noblest, and those damn Mud Breeds and Muggle would naturally be enslaved by them.
Lucius took a deep breath. He knew that he had to remain calm. Although that was what he was thinking, he couldn't express these dangerous thoughts.
Judging from the current situation, it wouldn't do him any good.
The Malfoy Family had been able to survive for thousands of years not because of their temporary power, but because of their unparalleled wisdom.
However, he couldn't do nothing and wait for his complaint to be rejected!
Since the beginning of this year, when he was kicked out of the board of directors of Hogwarts School of Magic and Magic, the Malfoy Family had lost all face. If they were defeated by that boorish Hagrid and the two mudbloods again, the Malfoy Family would really become a laughingstock.
If they couldn't show their nobility and difference from ordinary sorcerers, what was the difference between a pureblood sorcerer and those lowly mudbloods?
If a few random mudbloods and mudbloods could trample on the Malfoy Family's reputation, then the Malfoy Family would soon become as worthless as the pureblood traitor Weasley!
No, no, I can't let this happen!
I have to do something. Maybe I can use some hidden power or more gold coins. [Love ↑ go △ little ↑ say △ w]

Just as Lucius Malfoy was thinking about his next move, a beautiful black long-eared owl suddenly flew in from the window, interrupting his thoughts.
"Damn it!" Lucius shouted in disgust.
Could it be that all those lazy house elves at home had died? How could an owl fly directly into his study?
Or did they all want to leave the Malfoy Family like that traitor Dobby?
When he thought of Dobby, the hateful house elf who dared to betray him and the Malfoy Family, Lucius was furious.
Because of this, he was ridiculed by his friends for a whole year.
Lucius pulled out his magic wand and was ready to make the reckless owl pay a bloody price.
The next second, he suddenly stopped.
He saw the mark on the owl. It was from the Hogwarts.
Lucius was a little curious. Who could be the person who wrote the letter to him?
It was definitely not Draco. He had other ways to contact him.
It couldn't be Severus either. Lucius had never seen him use an owl.
Apart from these two people, Lucius really couldn't think of anyone in the Hogwarts who would contact him at this time. What did the letter say?
He walked over and took the letter from the owl's foot and unfolded it. The handwriting on it was very ugly, sloppy, and the words were very rude.
The letter said: To Lucius Malfoy, my dear old friend, in the coming Christmas, I will prepare a big gift for you in the Hogwarts. I hope you will be satisfied and I beg you to help me.
Lucius frowned. He couldn't remember when he had such an old friend in the Hogwarts.
Also, what kind of gift would the other party prepare for him?
He patiently watched on, and after a few seconds, his brows relaxed.
The professor of defense against black magic in the Hogwarts, Jaime Lupin, was actually a werewolf?!
Looking at the dirty letter in his hand, Lucius's lips suddenly curled into a cold, satisfied smile.
This was really an unexpected Christmas gift. If what was written was true, it would be a big piece of news.
But this wasn't enough. A tamed werewolf becoming a teacher would only be on the front page of the Daily Prophet. It couldn't shake Dumbledore in the slightest.
As the greatest light wizard in modern times, Dumbledore's status and power were beyond imagination.
He wasn't just a simple principal of a magic school. Last year, when the Basilisk attacked the students in the Hogwarts Castle, it was only at the last moment that Lucius successfully persuaded the other directors to agree to remove Dumbledore from his position.
A werewolf obviously couldn't be compared to a Basilisk, so he had to pour some oil on the fire. Only then would it burn even more brightly.
But the most important thing was the person who wrote the letter and what he was going to do.
If both things were successful, then he had full confidence in driving Dumbledore out of the Hogwarts.
With careful preparation, it wasn't impossible to ruin Dumbledore's reputation.
After all, unlike the incident in the secret room, this incident was completely caused by Dumbledore. Compared to this, the lives of the stupid Hagrid and the equally stupid Hippogriff were nothing. Lucius's mind was now completely focused on the contents of the letter.
Although he didn't know who the other party was, it didn't matter.
The important thing was the information and what he was going to do. This was very important!
As for what the other party wanted him to do, it was a piece of cake. He just needed to pay attention to the time.
Lucius looked at the wall clock. There were still ten minutes to two in the afternoon.
Although it was rushed, there was still time. Lucius muttered to himself for a moment and secretly made up his mind.
Although this matter was dangerous, he didn't need to show his face and hide behind the scenes to fan the flames. This was in line with the values of the Malfoy family.
"Bobby!" he shouted.
The next second, with a bang, a cowardly house elf appeared in the room.
"I'm here, Master," Bobby said in a sharp voice. Bobby said in a sharp voice. He looked at Lucius Malfoy in horror, afraid that he would be punished.
"Go and prepare my suit. Hurry up. I want to meet the head of the Ministry of Magic." Lucius paused for a moment before continuing, "Also, prepare the gold coins. The more the better. Besides Foggy, my greedy old friends also have big appetites."
He quickly walked to his desk. Before meeting Foggy, Lucius planned to write a few letters to his old friends whom he hadn't seen in a long time. At the same time, he also wanted to tell the news to the other pureblood families who were happy to see Dumbledore fall.
