Xie Lian saw that the house was tall, surrounded by glazed coral and other decorations, and the furnishings in the house were extremely luxurious. She couldn't help but said: "Then you were very good to my master. Why did my master leave again later?"

Li Gesang held Xie Lian's hand tightly: "Lian'er, you have grown so big, and I have not fulfilled my responsibility as a father, but you still have to know the whole story."

Xie Lian threw his hand away: "I said, I'm not your daughter, why are you so confused?"

Li Gesang sighed for a long time and suddenly said: "You were born on the ninth day of the first lunar month of the Yiyou year. Your master wouldn't lie to you about your birthday, right?"

Xie Lian's eyes widened: "Hey, how did you know?"

Li Gesang stroked the backrest of a chair next to him, looked up at the sky, and said with infinite nostalgia: "Back then in Yi Village, I was only twenty-five or six years old, the age when I was in full bloom, when I met your mother, who is

Your master Xie Xiaoyi, at that time, she looked almost exactly like you now, but there were differences. You were much simpler, and at that time, she was the daughter of the former Yi chief, she was smart and capable, and she and Nalong were not on good terms."

Xie Lian immediately remembered that Sheva also said that I looked like my master when he was young. Now he said the same, am I really my master's daughter? The emperor in front of me is really my father? Then I am not a princess.

?But suddenly asked: "Who is Nalong?"

"He was the chief of the Yi people at that time. When I went there, one of my thoughts was that the Yi people were very powerful in Nanzhao and they needed to win over me. The other purpose was to take a peek at the fortifications there. I thought that if the peace talks failed, I would have to use force.

If so, I might as well have a head start, but unexpectedly I met the most unforgettable woman in my life there. This person was naturally your master Xie Xiaoyi. She was so beautiful that I forgot everything at once.

For her, I am willing to give up the great cause of unifying Nanzhao. She also fell in love with me at first sight, but she has one request. Although she is a woman, she wants me to respect her. If I unify Nanzhao in the future, I will marry her and be my rightful wife.

Madam Shi, I naturally agreed. In fact, where can I find a beautiful and capable woman like her in the whole world? Although my martial arts was good at that time, I had not yet reached the first-class level.

"Wu Jing" was stolen and given to me. Later, we fought together in the battle of crossing the bridge. If your master had not sacrificed his life to protect me, my life would have been gone. After three years of fighting, I finally unified Nanzhao and ended

It can be said that your master has contributed most to the disputes that have occurred for nearly a hundred years. At that time, the Yi people were just a tribe under my jurisdiction. I should have married her as my wife according to your master's wish, but at that time,

I received an invitation from an envoy sent by Emperor Li Longji of the Tang Dynasty to be a guest in his court. I knew in my heart that although his words were polite, he actually wanted me to surrender. I thought about it again and again at the time, although I felt that Nanzhao was relying on

The dangers of mountains and rivers may keep the Tang Dynasty at bay, but the war will definitely be protracted. The six tribes have just unified and the country is poor and weak. It is not suitable to confront the powerful Tang Dynasty at this time. In desperation, I had to endure the humiliation and go to Chang'an to meet with Li Longji.

At that time, the Tang Dynasty was in the prosperous age of Kaiyuan, and the country was very powerful. What I saw along the way was that it was indeed a hundred times stronger than Nanzhao. I felt deeply that I had to bear the humiliation for a while. I thought, if we start a war, we will definitely lose. When I arrived in Chang'an, Li

Longji was very polite to me and treated me like a brother. When he wanted to confer me the title of 'Erhai County King', I had no choice but to endure the humiliation and accept it. I thought to myself that I would repay the favor when I develop my strength in the future.

Little did he know that his two prime ministers, Yao Chong and Song Jing, had anticipated this. They gave Princess Jin Ping a hand in marriage and communicated with Nanzhao about it. At that time, I was afraid of the pressure from the court, so I had no choice but to accept the marriage!"

Xie Lian quickly asked: "That Princess Jin Ping must be very beautiful?"

When Li Gesang smiled, the girl was concerned about this and could only say: "Yes, she is very beautiful. She is a typical Central Plains beauty, something we have never seen in Nanzhao. This Princess Jin Ping was originally the daughter of Emperor Tang Shao, and Li Longji took the throne.

After that, the first thing to be attacked was these remnants of the previous dynasty. By marrying her to our country, I not only won over Nanzhao, but also attacked the old ministers, killing two birds with one stone, but I was in a dilemma. I thought, let's agree to Li Longji for the time being, and I will ask Li Longji when I go back.

A Yi explained, wouldn’t she understand my painstaking efforts? But she didn’t know that this matter had already reached your master’s ears. She came to kill Princess Jin Ping in a rage. She didn’t know that the Tang Dynasty was heavily guarded, but instead she

I was injured. I saw her later and asked her to forgive me, saying that I asked her to be my concubine, but I still doted on her like a queen, but she actually wanted me to kill her in front of the Tang Dynasty envoy.

Princess Jin Ping, think about it, I suffered so much grievances from the Tang Dynasty, and I just want to compromise. In this way, it’s not like trying to get water from a bamboo basket. Naturally, she disagreed, and she mistakenly thought that I was unlucky and would still be here.

I took you away in your infancy and had no training for seventeen years. Lian'er, God is lucky that you have grown up so big!"

Xie Lian was stunned when she heard this. She didn't know there were so many twists and turns in this process before. She sighed: "So, you still like my master?"

"Yes." A sad look appeared on Li Gesang's face: "I have not had a hard time in the past twenty years. Apart from dealing with government affairs, I miss you mother and son every day. I don't know how you are doing. Don't worry.

, I will definitely find your master and reunite our family!"

Xie Lian curled her lips and said, "I won't reunite with Shy!"

Li Gesang said in shock: "Lian'er, my father finally found you. I feel sorry for you in my heart. I will love you even more in the future. You are not allowed to leave in the future. I want you to enjoy the glory and wealth in the palace!"

Xie Lian sneered and said: "I don't want to live with that Princess Jin Ping. It was her who forced the master to dare not see anyone. She was the one who harmed the master. She also forced us to be separated as father and daughter for seventeen years. She

He is the culprit."

When Li Gesang heard this, tears suddenly flowed from his eyes: "Lian'er, please don't blame her. She is innocent. She was also forced to marry by Li Longji to a remote place in Nanzhao. She is the Young Emperor.

My daughter, if Tang Ruizong did not take away her father's throne, she would be the most noble woman in the world besides the queen. Besides, you don't have to hate her anymore."

"Why, I hate her, I just hate her. If she didn't come, our whole family would be living well."

Li Gesang sighed and said: "Lian'er, she died sixteen years ago!" When he said this, his expression was very sad, "Originally, with the dignity of a princess and her peerless appearance, she married my Nan.

Zhao, I have wronged her extremely, but I was heartbroken about your master's departure, and I was extremely cold to her. Naturally, she was very sad, depressed and became ill. She died of illness in the second year after she came to Dali!

"

Xie Lian suddenly felt sad. As for why she was sad, she couldn't tell. She just felt that she didn't blame her master for this matter, and she didn't seem to blame her father. But who should she blame?

At such a young age, she suddenly learned the big secret of her life experience, but she became confused and suddenly passed out!
