The indicator light in vivi's eyes has turned off, as if it was sleeping. It may also be that it was very sensible to turn off its sensing system, allowing the two of them to whisper.

Tang Fang slowly calmed down his irritability and quietly waited for her next story.

Elena said that her mother had a sad smile in the photos, and she is not the same now. She is beautiful, clean and thorough, but now she is a kind of beauty that makes people feel distressed, not a beauty that is amazing or touching.

"My mother is a journalist. She was born in Charles Federation and grew up in Charles Federation. If there were no such things, she might not have any contact with the nobles in her life..." She paused at this point, noticed that these words were inappropriate, and corrected: "Conversations in life."

Laura Passi is a reporter. During his work, he will inevitably have intersections with some small and medium-sized aristocrats in specialized countries. Therefore, Elena's previous words were a bit unrigorous.

"Until 16 years ago, she was 29 years old that year, and I was not born yet."

"That year, His Highness the Regent was full of energy, and His Majesty the King endured the burden that year. It was also in that year that Duke Knar finally made up his mind to reform the corrupt social system."

"His first substantial reform measure was to open up media control and allow foreign media to enter the 'Atiya'. It is conceivable what such a measure represents in a special country. If it is a country with imperial power supremacy such as the Monya Empire, the Sulu Empire, and the Phoenix Empire, I am afraid that his majesty will be exempted from his title and fiefdom the next day and will be punished for treason."

"The situation in the United Kingdom of Tulanx is better, because the power of the royal power is not so absolute. The hymn Wil hasn't been long since he ascended the throne and is unstable. He urgently needs to win over the domestic nobles against the limelight Regent. After weighing the pros and cons, he chooses to turn a blind eye to his father's reform measures."

"His Majesty the King is very smart. He does not think that if his father's reform can be carried out, there will be many people. Many families and many vested interest groups jumped out to obstruct the reform. He is unable to change the national trend by his father's own strength alone. Instead, he will dig his own grave."

"He is very visionary, and the reforms are facing many obstacles at the beginning, both inside and outside the Duke of Knar."

"After many times of admonition, some elderly people who resisted the reform and enterprises with aristocratic backgrounds chose to use tough measures."

"They planned a terrorist attack on their father. They thought it would be best if they could blow him to death. Even if they couldn't, they could give him a reminder. In the future, it would be better to dispel the idea of ​​reform."

"My father was not dead, several of his personal bodyguards died, and many civilians were also killed. When Buffal arrived at the scene with the rapid response troops, controlled the situation and rescued him from the trapped site, the first foreign journalists who entered the "Aitia" arrived at the scene. Among them were Laura Passi - my mother."

"My father did not leave, nor did he stop the reporters from entering the scene. When he was moving to the ambulance, he gave his magnetic levitation stretcher to a civilian, and used his bloody hands to dig out a stray dog ​​wailing from the rubble."

"Some people think he is acting in front of foreign journalists. My mother doesn't think so because my father asked the civilian's name, and he remembered it!"

"So she mustered up the courage to walk towards the ambulance, ignored the obstruction of the military and police, and asked loudly if she could conduct an exclusive interview with him."

"A foreign journalist and a duke, not only has a huge difference in status, but such an interview will inevitably involve a sensitive political situation. After just undergoing such a terrorist attack, no one thinks that Duke Congrif will accept Laura's request for an interview. Even if he wants to convey any voice to the outside world, he will think carefully and plan carefully, and express it in some unnutritious official words."

"To everyone's surprise, he agreed. And there was no other time to arrange, just in the ambulance, just after he had dealt with the flesh injury on his shoulder."

"He also did not use official words and clichés to answer those sharp questions, nor did he hide the political ugliness behind this terrorist attack. He said he would not give up, and he would also be against reform and those who obstruct reform."

"So... my mother and my father met in that place full of blood and fire, as well as political sins. Then, my mother became my father's most confidant foreign journalist, and there were mothers in many interviews about reform."

"I have read my mother's diary. In fact, she was in agreement with some media people at the beginning, believing that her father was just acting on occasion and using the power of the media to achieve her political goals. However, as time went on, she changed from distrust to suspicion, and then changed from suspicion to admiration, and then she wanted to know more about him. Then, the two of them came together... it was the mother who took the initiative."

"Because my father has a very special personality charm, like a passage written by his mother in his diary: 'Until now, I know why he was interviewed without hesitation after the terrorist attack, because he didn't want to go back, as I said in my ears - when the outside world is full of resistance, all I can do is to force myself into a desperate situation and turn no retreat into a forward action. Think seriously, it is really cute to say such words from a duke, like his rosacea and the drunken silence that people can't bear to look at."

"In the eyes of my mother, compared to those noble masters who are polite on the surface and love the people as much as their children, but are actually full of thieves and prostitutes, the father is more like an old boy who never strikes the wall and does not look back, and does not look back after hitting the wall. Of course, this is just his essence. In fact, he will do the same thing as a politician, but he often disdain to do it."

Tang Fang interrupted at this time, raised his eyebrows and said, "Why do I think your father looks like me?"

Elena did not delve into the disrespect in this sentence, but her pink face suddenly burned. She remembered what she said just now - "It was my mother's initiative." In other words, it was his mother seducing Congreve.

Now, she also asked Tang Fang for marriage, and then he said that his personality is very similar to Kangreve.

Captain Tang quickly came back and quickly brought the conversation back to normal: "What about?"

Elena continued what she had just said: "Then her mother became pregnant... After all, she had no status. Of course, her mother did not want a status either. She just stubbornly pursued her love, ignored the opposition of all relatives and friends, and was determined to give birth to the child in her belly."

"Because my father's reform career had really touched the actual interests of the nobles in the territory, it became difficult to take into account his own safety and other aspects of the impact. My mother quit her job and returned to the Charles Federation."

"Short after I came back, she had a fight with my grandparents and moved to 'Amy' alone. She was quietly waiting for the birth of the child. Of course... my father sent an old housekeeper and several bodyguards to take care of her, but this did not heal my mother's lonely and sad mood."

"A few months later, when the reform of "Atiya" almost stagnated, my father had to choose to use the power of the army and deprive the titles of more than a dozen nobles who blatantly resisted the reform. There were also official positions of relevant tribe members. Those who refused to obey were taken down on the charge of disrespect for the orders of the lord, and even killed them."

"This triggered a riot, with varying degrees of turmoil in the fields of people's livelihood, transportation, and economics. Everyone in the major families was in danger and worried that such a thing would fall on their heads. So many opposing reformists moved their families to the 'Joenne' controlled by Surbaggio, Reeves and others."

"My mother was very worried about her father's safety. She lost a lot of weight. She had a long separation and fear, and was not understood by her relatives. She also had pessimism that she could not see the future, which made her bear huge pressure. So... the smile on her face during that period was like this, with sadness and sorrow."

She stopped telling that vivi was already asleep, the rabbit was already asleep, and the kitten had narrowed his eyes in the slit of the board.

The water drops slapped the green leaves, making a "bang, slap" sound. Water marks winding out from the bright fruit grains, spreading wetly on the melon racks on the ridges of the fields, bringing a hint of coolness.

This is the taste that only comes to the night of early autumn... He still remembers his life.

It's over? Elena said so much in one breath, and it's over so simply?

No, there is still below. She is telling a story, her parents and his story. Instead of simply explaining why the smile on her mother's face is so heartbreaking.

"What about below?"

Elena looked at the face with some contours under the dim light and said, "Do you really want to hear it?"

Tang Fang said: "I have always been a very competent listener and hate stories that are about to start and end the most. If it is not exciting enough, I will curse the storyteller. If it is exciting enough, I will invite him to have a drink."

Elena asked, "Then will you curse me?"

"I will punish you for copying the Great Compassion Mantra a thousand times."

The girl thought for a while and said, "I'd better keep talking."

"On the one hand, my mother was worried about the tensions of Duke Knar, and on the other hand, she didn't want to return to her father, so as not to be distracted. In fact, there was another important reason. She hoped that I could be born in Charles Federation and be an ordinary person, rather than compete with my brothers for property."

"She is a journalist, has seen many grudges of nobles, has heard of many brothers and sisters, and from her father's experience, she knows that those characters who are more dazzling than the spotlight have actually been living in the darkness, accompanying demons and eating with ghosts."

"When the child in her belly was about to come to this world, she gave her a nice name, Elena."

"No one expected that this was the last gift she gave to her daughter."

"After those who opposed the reform moved to 'Joenna', Duke Knar led civil unrest. In order to fight against his father, they formed an anti-reform alliance led by Reeves and Surbaggio. Relying on the armed forces of 'Joenna', they continued their privileges and safeguarded the interests of the aristocratic class."

"At such a tense moment, the Krivat family where Amanda is located proposed a plan that can give his father a strong blow, and then passed without any resistance, and received unanimous approval and support from all members of the Kner family in the 'Joenna' system."

"Yes, they are going to attack my mother... When she was about to give birth, she gave her father a fatal blow, regardless of the child in her belly, and was also a member of the Knar family, and she did not care about the identity of her mother as an outsider... Or maybe they did not think that her mother was an outsider. On the contrary, it was she who poisoned her father's thoughts and made him go further and further on the road of reform."

"No matter what kind of thoughts, after spending a lot of money to bribe several local policemen, their assassination was successful. The bodyguard arranged by her father failed to save her mother's life. She was shot at the center by a pistol, and the ambulance boat was no longer breathing when it arrived."

“Luckily, the child is still alive…”

Speaking of this, Elena raised her head and looked into his eyes and said, "I'm still alive..."

Under the dim light, those clean eyes were slightly red.

"The doctor told the old housekeeper that the mother's physical condition is relatively weak. There is actually a long time left before giving birth. Although the child is still alive, it does not guarantee that she can grow up healthily."

"But...that kid survived."

"I... survived."

It is still two short sentences with similar meanings, but they contain different things. That is Elena's emotions.

"So, my birthday is the same day as my mother's death."

Tang Fang felt that his heart was squeezing hard. She did not accuse or shout. She just calmly told a fact, but it was more powerful than any accusation or shout.

The end of Laura's life is the beginning of Elena's life, and the culprit of doing all this is her brother who has the same blood as her body.

"Grandpa and grandma did not accept me, they just took away their mother's ashes."

"I don't hate them, I really don't hate them, because it's my existence that makes them rebel. And because of my existence, my mother walked in front of them."

"In the third year after my mother's death, my grandfather went to 'Amy' to find me because my grandmother called 'Laura' and 'Elena' when she was in a coma. Unfortunately, he didn't find it. The old housekeeper had already taken me away from that sad place."

"Two years later, my grandfather has also left. It is said that the cabinet next to the hospital bed contains photos of my grandmother and mother. There are photos of little Elena wearing a white dress and laughing in the sun by the old housekeeper."

"I don't know what kind of life my father lived in those years. Until he grew up and looked through the news reports of online media, he realized that the reform process of "Aladele" has stagnated for three years. During that period, he rarely appeared in front of the media. Even if he occasionally appeared on the screen, he either looked haggard or drunk."

"He... is really not good at adjusting his emotions, just like his mother described him. He is a lord on the surface, but at the core he is an old boy who never grows up."

She paused and looked at Tang Fang with a somewhat complicated gaze.

"Anyway, he was cheering up again, just more radical than before when it came to the issue of reform and no longer taking a moderate path."

"My father has always been very nice to me. Although I haven't seen each other a few times since I grew up, I still see a lot of guilt, love, and sadness in his eyes."

"He felt guilty because he could not accompany his little daughter to grow up, because he had made her lose her mother, and because he could not give her a normal life. As for sadness, I think... maybe he saw the shadow of his mother in me... it must be like this."

"Later, my father sent vivi. Later, I learned a lot of things and learned a lot of things. Later, I heard the news of my father's death and cried for a long time to see my mother and him."

"Soon after, Tanglin found me, and then, I made my own choice, came to the United Kingdom of Tulanx, came to you, and did what I should do."

"In fact, whether it is mother or father, they don't want me to return to the United Kingdom of Tulanx and return to this sad place. My father once said that I don't belong here, and my life should not bloom in the United Kingdom of Tulanx. He hopes that I can live like an ordinary Charles girl."

"It's a pity that I did not follow his teachings and chose the Charles Federation. Instead, I chose the place where my father grew up and the place where my mother met the most important person in her life."

"I came not to inherit my father's career, I came to end it!"

"My mother's tragedy, father's hardships, grandparents' regrets, and the pain I experienced..."

"I don't want to see such a thing happen again, so I have to use my heart and hands to change the entire Duke's throne and change this system that makes tragedy endlessly reincarnation."

"When such a fate comes to me, I choose to say goodbye to my original life, follow Tang Lin back here, ask for your help, and become my strength."

"In return, I am willing to be your wife, take care of you wholeheartedly, raise children for you...although it's really hard for me now."

"To be honest, I really don't know how to face you... I haven't fallen in love with you yet... I don't know what to do to be a qualified wife... I can't just treat you as the eldest brother like Linglong and Yingluo... I'm very confused, and I still have some loss and sorrow, and a faint sense of warmth and security... Maybe it's like the word "mixed with all kinds of flavors."

This time she did not show a shy expression, but she spoke very slowly, with a slight trembling.

"Am I very stubborn? Just like my mother described her father, "I don't look back if I don't hit the wall, and I don't look back if I hit the wall'?"

Tang Fang reached out to rub her head and said "um" gently.

She... is really a good girl.

As I said, her strength is different from Zhou Ai, her tenderness is different from Claya, and her simplicity is even more different from Freya.

She is strong, she is gentle, she is simple, she is Elena.

She is her, not like anyone else. (~^~)

ps: I won't admit that I'm writing about daily life, well, laying the foundation...

I like Elena's very much.
