Professor McGonagall was so angry that she subconsciously held Professor Trelawney tighter with one hand, so much so that she almost couldn't breathe. The other hand pointed at Umbridge tremblingly.

Her voice was hoarse because of anger:"You... Umbridge... didn't you still have Levin Green at the beginning? As long as the student's flying talent meets the requirements, we will give him……"

Upon hearing this, Umbridge took an angry step forward and slapped the finger pointed at her by Professor McGonagall:

"shut up! Shameless old thief, don’t you know that students from other colleges are angry behind your back but dare not speak out, and yet you dare to mention Mr. Levingreen here! She paused, then took another step forward,"Speaking of Levin Green, his Quidditch talent is indeed much better than Harry Potter's." But what did Ravenclaw House do in the first place? let me tell you."

Umbridge deliberately lengthened her voice to attract everyone's attention:

"According to school records, it was Ravenclaw who took flying lessons before Gryffindor. Mr. Green showed amazing talent in the first flying lesson, and Mrs. Hooch also reported his performance to the school. But did you and Principal Dumbledore express concern about him at that time? Have you ever proposed exceptional admissions? She sneered and continued:

"No! You don't! In fact, if you hadn't taken the lead in breaking the rules yourself, Professor Flitwick wouldn't have had the chance to fight for the opportunity that should have been his for this student who is more talented in flying!"

Dumbledore frowned when he saw Professor McGonagall being humiliated and speechless. He never thought that Umbridge would use this method to attack their prestige, so he had to bite the bullet and help McGonagall. Professor Ge comes to the rescue:

"Ms. Umbridge, what you pointed out is indeed our poor consideration. Minerva saw Harry's talent at the time and was so excited that she made an extraordinary decision. However, such errors did not have much impact. After all, students with a talent for flying still have a chance to join the Quidditch team in their second year. We haven't overlooked Levon Green's development in Quidditch, have we?"

Umbridge gradually calmed down after hearing Dumbledore's words.

On this topic, she had already defeated the other party. Since Dumbledore decisively admitted his mistake, she could only give up as soon as he could.

"Oh, Headmaster Dumbledore, please forgive me for being so excited. You're right, the Quidditch thing doesn't have a big impact on the students. So, please allow me to continue."

She smiled sweetly at Dumbledore, changed the subject, and cast her gaze into the distance, as if recalling the past.

"Before this semester, before the Ministry of Magic implemented educational reforms and required students and the school to strictly abide by school rules, I wonder if you still remember the year Mr. Harry Potter entered school? After the sorting ceremony, Principal Dumbledore personally issued a rule: students are prohibited from entering the corridor on the right side of the fourth floor."

As she said that, she looked at Harry and Ron in the crowd, not hiding the malice in her eyes:

"However, at the end of the term, Mr. Harry Potter and several Gryffindor students, including of course Mr. Levingreen - they broke the school rules that you personally set. However, Principal Dumbledore, you did not punish them in accordance with school rules. Instead, you gave them an unusually large number of house points."

Umbridge sighed quietly, as if she was the one who had been greatly wronged:

"Principal Dumbledore, isn't your behavior causing other colleges to be punished in disguise for complying with school rules? Is this really fair to those students who abide by the law?"

Dumbledore was speechless after hearing what she said.

His family knew his own affairs, and Dumbledore knew very well that he had indeed been partial to Harry in the past few years, but this was all for a reason. His The ultimate goal is to let Harry go on that path and fulfill that prophecy.

To this end, of course he does not hesitate to violate some principles of fairness.

But can this kind of thing be said?

This gave him a headache Mute.

On the other side, as soon as Umbridge finished speaking, Professor McGonagall couldn't help but want to refute.

However, as soon as she opened her mouth, Umbridge stopped her.

"Oh, Professor McGonagall, I know what you want to say. Do you want to use Mr. Levingreen as a shield again?"

Umbridge pretended to have seen through everything.

"However, I have reviewed the records for that year. Although Mr. Green also violated this rule, the bonus points he earned for Ravenclaw far outweighed the possible deductions. His outstanding performance in the Quidditch Cup won a lot of points for Ravenclaw House. Therefore, even if he was deducted points for breaking the rules, Ravenclaw House could still win the House Cup with his help.

Seeing Professor McGonagall choked, Umbridge was even more proud. This is what she came up with after constantly searching through the old files of Hogwarts during this period and consulting Slytherin's little snake many times.

Ginny had scolded her in class and scolded her so hard that she couldn't hold her head up. But she couldn't do anything to Ginny afterward. It was because Ginny used the usual methods of the Ministry of Magic.

Talk about justice, rules, and awareness. Form, going up and down, putting hats on, picking out words, etc.

As long as the Ministry of Magic still wants to use this method to suppress others, it must accept others using this method to fight back.

Umbridge also learned this from Ginny A little bit.

Doesn’t Dumbledore like to talk about reason, fairness, and justice? Then I will expose you from the perspective of fairness and justice, and defeat you based on reason!

Now, it can be regarded as giving her a moral advantage.

Um Rich (ciad) Qi did not stop there, but went further to fight against the injustices of other colleges:

"Hufflepuff and Slytherin students actually abide by school rules, but because Gryffindor students break the rules, they are overtaken by Gryffindor. I would like to ask, Principal Dumbledore, who was born in Gryffindor, and Professor McGonagall, who was born in Gryffindor, how come the fairness you have always emphasized has disappeared at this time? So this kind of behavior that encourages students to violate Hogwarts school rules is exactly why the Ministry of Magic sent me! We need to inherit what deserves to be inherited, perfect what needs to be perfected, and resolutely cut out those practices that should be banned."

Professor McGonagall was so angry that she was breathing heavily. She struggled and said,"Umbridge, how dare you accuse Principal Dumbledore like this? The situation at that time was that we wanted to……"

However, Umbridge was unyielding and interrupted Professor McGonagall:

"Minerva McGonagall, although you have lived for more than a hundred years, except for being excellent at transfiguration, you don't seem to have made any major contributions to education. You always claim to be fair and strict, but in fact you are aloof, do not distinguish right from wrong, and take pleasure in making random accusations against others. Even Professor Sybill Trelawney in your arms, I heard that you accused her many times in front of the students, and the reason is basically the same as the reason why I expelled her today. And now, are you pretending to be a good person again?"

Speaking of this, she couldn't help but sneered.

"I already know the life of Professor McGonagall. Do you still remember the Muggle farmer named Dougal McGregor from your hometown? You clearly agreed to his proposal after dating him for a period of time. You agreed to his proposal after dating him for a period of time, but then you did not hesitate to do it for your job in the Ministry of Magic, for your power and status. Abandoned him, not even daring to tell him the real reason. You left without saying goodbye three days later to marry Elphinstone Elcott, your boss at the Ministry of Magic. Professor McGonagall, you yourself are a typical example of disregarding fairness and justice for the sake of power! I've never seen anyone as shameless as you!"

Actually, the"facts" Umbridge told were completely different from the truth. She deliberately concealed some facts when she made the accusation to make it sound like something else.

In fact, the reason why Professor McGonagall agreed to Du Gore McGregor rejected his proposal because she witnessed the unhappy marriage of her Muggle father and wizard mother when she was a child. She knew very well that her identity as a wizard would bring trouble and confusion to Dugal. It was dangerous, so she chose to give up the relationship.

However, the International Statute of Wizarding Secrecy in that era was more stringent than it is now, which prevented Professor McGonagall from revealing her identity as a wizard and revealing the true reason for regretting the marriage to Dougal. When Professor McGonagall agreed to Elphinstone Elcott's proposal, she had already left the Ministry of Magic and came to teach at Hogwarts. At that time, Doug, whom she had always loved, had already married another Muggle. , and even died.

Elphinstone himself had long retired by that time and was no longer her boss at the Ministry of Magic.

It can be seen that the combination of Professor McGonagall and Elphinstone was indeed based on mutual respect. and deep feelings, rather than the power and status that Umbridge imagined.

However, due to Umbridge's well-founded refutations before, these last specious fabrications were believed to be true by the onlookers.

Professor McGonagall could already feel the eyes from all directions, which were the doubts and inquiries of students and colleagues.

She had been strong all her life and had extremely high self-esteem. How could she endure such humiliation at this moment?

Anger and humiliation were intertwined, making her body Shaking uncontrollably.

She wanted to refute Umbridge, but she was so angry that she only said:"You, you! ah……"He was so angry that he fainted.

The moment she fell, Sybill Trelawney, who was hugging her tightly, also fell to the ground, pressing on the sleeve of Professor McGonagall's black robe.

This scene shocked everyone present..
