Stir-fried Datang: The Strongest Daughter

Chapter 667 Li Lian (Extra)
In the year I was born, an earth-shattering event happened in Datang: the Cui family, the leader of the five aristocratic families, collapsed.Fell under the calculation of the mother.

The thousand-year-old Cui family was swept into the dustbin of history by their mother and grandfather.

And this year, the times began to change quietly. I was born in this year, bathed in the sunshine of the new era, and this life is destined to be full of ups and downs.I am Li Lian, the eldest daughter of Emperor Gaozong and Empress Wenzhao, Princess Chongyang.

For as long as I can remember, my mother and father were always busy.Especially after the death of our grandmother, our mother who can accompany us has no time to accompany me.So I always encouraged my two brothers to play pranks, hoping to attract the attention of my mother and father.

After my grandmother died, my grandfather took us to teach us personally, and the days with my grandfather were happy.Because I can feel his love for us, and because we are the Son of Heaven, we can always do whatever we want.

My grandfather was partial to us, so he always pampered us, and my mother was always a little unhappy about it.

When I was young, I couldn't understand it; but when I grew up and became a mother, I gradually understood my mother's feelings.

It's just that I realized it too late. When I found out, my mother was already old and sick.

The mother was seriously ill, and her once-vigorous energy slowly withered away.

I don't want to recall the details of my mother's death too much, because it always hurts my heart every time I think about it.What I prefer to recall is the love between her and her father.

Aunt Feng told me that in the beginning, the person my mother preferred was not my father, but another man.

I asked my aunt, who is that man?My aunt never gave me an answer.

So I was confused, what kind of efforts did my father put in to finally win back my mother's heart?
Mother loves father, there is no doubt about it.

She loved her father deeply, and his father loved her deeply.

There were always rumors in the market, especially after the mother passed away, the rumors became more and more true.

I began to recall my mother, recalling every bit of her, and I suddenly felt that it might be true that my mother could predict the future and change the destiny and be backlashed by the law of heaven.

Because mothers are different, really different.

Although she lived outside for ten years, she was taught by the great sage, and after she came back, she received the strict guidance of a lady.But my mother is different, so different, she does not have the timidity of women in this era.

When her father went to Liaodong, she was able to chase him single-handedly. This kind of courage alone is not something all women can do.Only the young lady of Yuchi's family can be compared with it.So in the days to come, Qianli Xunfu became the allusion of these two.

I gradually began to believe those rumors, so I became more and more painful.

Looking at his father's thinning figure, panic lingered in his heart.

When my mother left, I took my father's heart with me. Since my mother passed away, I have rarely seen my father's smile again.

He was originally a taciturn person, but after his mother left, he became even more silent.

I looked at the bustling market in the capital, and remembered that year when I was out of the palace, my grandma held my hand, and seeing my mother being worshiped by the people, I finally had some enlightenment in my heart.

People can give up everything for their beliefs, even their own lives.

The father is the faith of the mother.

I went to sea, but my father didn't stop me.Under the Chengtian sect, I kowtowed three times to my father, and then left Chang'an, the hometown that haunts me forever and ever!
The scenery and adventures at sea made me gradually forget the grief of losing my mother. When the huge storm hit the Cape of Good Hope, I seemed to hear the call of my fourth uncle.The fear dissipated in my heart, and I remembered that my fourth uncle was also a person who sacrificed for his faith. I am the woman of Empress Wen Zhao. She is so brave and fierce, and I cannot be afraid!
The wind stopped, we crossed the Cape of Good Hope, and I took a jar of wine to my fourth uncle's tomb.

I spilled wine on his grave, Aunt Feng pursed her lips, with tears in her eyes.

silence……

This is the wine that my father asked me to bring, and it is my uncle's favorite five-step pour.

The fourth uncle is tall and big, with a bold temperament. He likes Aunt Feng who is stubborn, likes to ride the strongest horse, and even drinks the strongest wine. He said that is what a man should do.

The clear wine soaked the fourth uncle's grave. Under the setting sun, I seemed to see the smiling face of the fourth uncle in the sky. He smiled and encouraged me to move forward.

We arrived in America smoothly. Qin Juedao was drunk that day, hugged me and cried bitterly.My mother chose this husband for me. Although I asked for my opinion, under the expectant eyes of my mother, I still acquiesced to this marriage.

Qin Juedao is a very good man, he loves me very much, at the beginning I didn't have much feeling for him, because in front of the love of mother and father, all imaginations about love will be disillusioned.

What if the husband I had fantasized about?That was certainly what his father looked like.

If it's not as good as your father, what difference does it make who you marry?
But as time went by, this man slowly walked into my heart.

He loves me, loves me, and is willing to give me his life. Although it is not as intense as the relationship between mother and father, it is still flowing. The warmth gradually made me depend on this man.

After many years, I finally understood.

What is love?

That is, when you are lonely, someone can go crazy with you; when you are sad, someone can cry with you; when you are happy, someone can drink alcohol with you.

Qin Juedao is such a man.

He is willing to go anywhere with me and do anything with me, even if he wants to leave Chang'an, where he has lived all his life, and risk being swallowed by the sea to wander with me.

On the night he arrived in America, he cried so heartily.

I finally understood that he was homesick, but he never showed it in front of me.

Now that we have finally arrived in America, everyone knows that there is very little chance of us being able to go back in our lifetime, as if the bond we once had was about to be cut off, he cried, crying very sadly.

I hugged him, weeping silently, that night, we faced the moon, and after weeping bitterly, we drank heavily, and finally we were both drunk.

When we woke up the next day, we all had a tacit understanding and didn't mention what happened last night. Maybe this is the tacit understanding between husband and wife?
I thought so.

In the days that followed, we fought with the natives while multiplying and multiplying. We brought in many laborers from Europe, and the artisans who came here taught the technology hand in hand. We need people, and we need a lot of people, because we want to live here, and then Fulfilling the mother's faith.

Yes, my mother had promised my grandfather that she would not give up America.As a result, America has gradually become the mother's belief.Now that my mother has passed away, it is time for me to take over the burden from her, because I am the Son of Prophecy of America, and it is only I who is most suitable for this task.

I believe in fate. Yuan Tiangang once predicted that I would become the master of this land. I deeply believe that, so I am here.

The pain of losing my mother was healed in this land, and watching the city-state grow and prosper warmed my heart.

I also thought of the people's reverence for their mothers, and I wanted to be like my mother.

A woman who is admired by the people and looked up to by future generations.

Day by day, the surrounding environment has finally gradually stabilized. We have drawn a boundary with the most powerful tribe here. This is Aunt Feng's intention. She adopts a soft policy.The ten-year truce has won us precious time. We are united and develop with our hearts.

I regard all the people from Europa as my own people, because I know that this country is destined to be multi-ethnic in the future.No matter what kind of grievances and grievances there were before, as long as I enter Huamei, I will be born as a Datang person and die as a Datang country. I must unite all the forces that can be united.

I adopted various means to attract a large number of European immigrants, and at the same time, my elder brother who was far away in the center also gave me the greatest support.With the continuous improvement of medical level and continuous advancement of science and technology, the population of Datang exploded like a blowout, and more and more citizens of Datang chose to voluntarily come to America to gain a future.

Everything is booming, we really need to put down roots here!

However, not long after, Aunt Feng fell ill. She was old and could no longer sail to America. Sailing exhausted her whole life and she was tired.

On the day Aunt Feng left, it was raining, and according to her last wish, I sent her to Qingque City to be buried in the tomb of my fourth uncle.Fourth Uncle had been waiting for her for decades, Aunt Feng had been suffering for decades, and now they can finally be together.

I watched the boat escorting the coffin leave, and tears gradually poured out.

The more we grow, the more we part.

I have sent away my mother, and now I am sending off Aunt Feng, both of whom have played an important role in my life, and I am very sad.And a few years later, the old Concubine Wu also came to the end of her life. I watched the familiar people die one by one, and finally only me and Jue Dao were left, and I began to panic.

I suddenly want to go home, I want to see my father, he is also 80 years old, how long is his life left?

In those nights, I often woke up from nightmares, and my husband with white hair patted me on the back, just like when I was young, and said gentle and considerate words to soothe my fear.

I hugged him, and even though we were all old men and women, I found that his old body could still bring me peace of mind.

This is love, right?

i think so...

The love between us is very plain, to the point of insipidity, but we have spent our whole life together hand in hand. On the American continent, we depended on each other and comforted each other. What kind of love is better than this?
At that moment I laughed.

I longed to have the love like my mother and father, but it wasn't until I was 60 that I realized that the love I wanted was already by my side.

My father passed away, and it was half a year after I knew the news. That night, I got drunk and cried a lot.By the time the sun came out the next day, there were no tears on my face.

I am the leader of this country, I cannot be vulnerable!

I want to be like my father and mother, leaving pain to myself and hope to my subjects...

I'm getting older and I can't walk, and my husband left me first. I touch his belongings and think about the time I spent with him...

Three months later, I saw him and he came to pick me up.

I held out my hand and ran over with a smile.

I've slept like a baby in your arms, I don't know if the first thing I see when I wake up are flowers or your green years?

Jue Dao, wait for me...

Farewell, my America, my beloved Datang!
