The gods crowned her [Famous Book]

Taking advantage of the festive gathering, Ivy gathered a group of middle-aged women, who saluted her, and then looked at her with a pleasant smile: "As far as I know, your daughter has never gone to school for a day, yes ?"

"I think it is a blessing to be able to read and write. At least I can read the Bible and know how to pray to God."

"But they should read more books. It is obviously too narrow to limit themselves to the Bible."

"Reading?" The lady sneered, "Only maids would like to read that stuff."

Many maids prefer to read instead, and book thefts recorded at the Central Criminal Court are almost exclusively related to maids stealing books, some secretly hiding books they find while cleaning the library. (1)

"Don't you want your daughter to be another me?"

"One of you is enough for us, my lord consul." One of the noble ladies shook her fan and laughed, echoing with her companions.

"We don't dare to have a second you." The others also laughed, "We all know that power is not something we dare to ask for."

However, no matter how hard Ivy tried to persuade those parents to send their girls to school, they were still indifferent.

"Master Consul, not all girls like reading, just like I don't like doing housework and sewing clothes." Cerilla reminded tactfully.

Ivy is puzzled by this: "But they will know that reading is much more interesting than housework only when they receive education."

"It should be that there is too little knowledge. After all, a broad vision can fuel people's ambitions."

Ivy nodded thoughtfully.

The next day, she publicly challenged the Senate, forcing them to pass a decree to support her as king, which of course aroused strong opposition from a group of members.

"You have no right to be crowned king," they said, looking at her with a mixture of awe and contempt.

Without saying a word, she calmly walked to the head of the congressman under the astonished eyes of the crowd, and threw the country's recent income and expenditure and per capita income tables in front of him.

"Tell me, am I eligible."

She said coldly...

In the silence, suddenly, everyone heard deafening gunshots outside, as if one after another, the sound hit their chests suffocated by fear.

Afterwards, they saw a smile of unknown meaning on Ivy's face, but she quickly licked it away, as if it was fleeting.

"My soldiers are impatient." She took off her gloves neatly. "Me too."

When she was crowned, she again showed signs of impatience - one step ahead of Pope Pius VII, donning for himself the crown of authority, supremacy and glory.

She was wearing the queen's gorgeous robe, the scepter in her hand was shining brightly, and her curly chestnut hair was as silky as satin. The girls watching the ceremony below all showed envious expressions.

That night, they begged their parents to send them to school.Because they believe that only by acquiring rich talents and knowledge can they have such glorious costumes and crowns.

Under her resolute measures, the Senate became a ceremonial institution with little effect.And she monopolizes the power alone, and no one dares to resist her orders.

But no one does not think that she is an excellent ruler who loves the people like a son, even if she is slightly criticized for being authoritarian.

But she quickly silenced her critics with her achievements.Therefore, although the country is extremely free of speech, there are basically no articles or comments criticizing her. The image of the Queen among the people is close to perfection.

Later, she opened many factories, advocated innovation with her own power, and set up related awards.

She encourages inventions and protects creations. All practical and innovative new inventions are entitled to patents and receive a high bonus.

And she also set up maternity leave in the newly revised labor law, which was unprecedented before.

Women are entitled to 98 days of maternity leave and can take rest with pay. The employer is not allowed to deduct her wages. If there is a violation, the employee has the right to join the labor union and apply for arbitration to the Labor Arbitration Committee.

She loves and respects women, but it doesn't mean she despises men. However, the journey of equality between men and women has been difficult enough. Even though there are many obstacles, she insists on vigorously promoting her own ideas.

She believes that "men have already enjoyed enough gender dividends by exploiting women", so what she is doing is to regain the rights of encroachment, which does not violate any ethics.

During her reign, the country's national power reached its peak.No matter in terms of combat power, economy or people's happiness, it is second to none in the rankings of European countries.

But she doesn't bother to carry out aggression, and she despises unjust wars even more. Only when the enemy country comes across the sea with blind contempt and intends to annex this country, she immediately becomes furious and leads the army to go out in person, commanding a military force that is equipped to fight in the world. The first-class army beat the enemy back steadily and retreated back to its own territory.

However, the queen did not intend to forgive their sins so easily. In a moment of rage, she sent troops to attack the capital, captured the emperor of the other country, and looted all their resources, including iron ore, food, and weapons. Finally willing to let it go.

But in the end, as a punishment, she asked that country to add her own family crest to the national flag, to show that they were just subjects raised by themselves and bowed to her forever.

Since then, there has been no attempt by the country to invade again, and her rule has continued in peace and happiness.

Her name is immortalized in the parchment, and even if someone accuses women of domination in the name of violating the will of God, she still looks down on her opponents proudly.

"I am God's will."

101. The Final Ending Extra Story

Before Kevin Clarence came to that terrible world, he was born in a good family, and according to the expectations of his family, after graduating from university, he successfully became a doctor.

His relationship with his parents, however, was rather aloof, and the latter, as local celebrities, were rarely seen at home.

But he has been very close to his grandfather since he was a child, and he has heard the true meaning of life, immortal legends, and stories about courage and love from the old man.

This makes him and his grandfather inseparable. At Christmas, he doesn't even look forward to gifts from his parents, but only hopes that his grandfather's ingenious ideas will appear in the Christmas stockings hanging by the bedside.

His grandfather never let him down. Among the gifts he gave him were dodo feathers, pictures of Newfoundland white wolves, and sharp teeth of saber-toothed tigers.

Just as he thought that there were really dinosaurs in the zoo when he was a child, he also believed in the "authentic" of these extinct animals. It was not until he grew up that he began to question the old man.

"How could you lie to me when I was young?"

"Dear grandson, I never told you a lie."

Grandfather's eyes are so sincere, but it's not enough to make him believe it.

He has a strong interest in medicine, and he did not need the persuasion of his parents, so he took the initiative to choose this most respectable career, graduated with honors, worked in the most famous local hospital, and became a prestigious doctor .

But gradually, my grandfather's health became weaker and weaker.

He found that the medical skill he was proud of was just a child's trick in front of the god of death, and at best it could only please the god of time, making the latter slightly delay the speed of time while laughing.

He resigned at home, devoted himself to being with his dying grandfather, continued to listen to his favorite legends and stories, and echoed them with great filial piety, laughing and marveling under appropriate circumstances.

"Listen, Kevin, I want to tell you a secret." The old man struggled to get up from the bed, "I may have lied to many people in my life, but I have never lied to you."

"What?" He asked puzzledly.

"Those gifts are all real."

"But they are extinct long ago, my dear grandpa," he explained patiently.

"Oh, no!" The old man shook his head hard, "This is the secret I want to tell you... The gifts I give you are all genuine, from my own collection... In my storage room, there is only one pile In a room full of steam sewing machines, tricycles, and a pile of mess, turn your watch hands back to twelve o'clock the previous day, and you'll find that I never lied to you."

"Although I don't know which period I will be sent to, but...trying and taking risks are always much more fun than being content with the status quo." The old man added.

Later, the grandfather died on a peaceful evening three days later.

The setting sun, like the mottled lines on the old man's face, spread throughout the evening.

At that time, he was making a bowl of porridge for his grandfather in the kitchen—the only liquid food the patient could eat. When he brought it, he saw that the old man had fallen asleep leaning on the sofa.

As a doctor, he has witnessed the death of many people and can maintain a professional numbness, as if death is just a normal journey.

However, only in the face of his grandfather's death, he seemed extremely unbelievable.

He didn't want to admit that his grandfather, who had always been energetic since he was a child, accompanied him to fish with earthworms, took him to swim in the lake in the name of exercise, and led him to explore countless mysteries of the universe with a telescope, could be so quiet towards death.

In other words, he never heard his grandfather's voice again.

No matter how exuberant and enthusiastic life was, it finally walked into that good night gently, and died inevitably from then on.

While sad, he suddenly had an idea.

If everything can be reversed by going back in time, can all the events that happened in the future be changed?

Pain can often obliterate a person's reason.So he made a move that would surprise him even in the usual way.

He actually believed his grandfather's words, walked into the storage room, and according to his instructions, turned his watch back to the zero o'clock of the previous day.

When he awoke after the dizzying procedure, he realized that he was lying on a large, luxuriously soft bed.

The velvet curtain blocked his sight, but when he tentatively called out "Is anyone there?", a strange young woman who had never seen him came in response.

She has a beautiful face, and the crimson velvet pajamas on her body make her look gentle and dignified, and even her voice is full of maternal gentleness: "What's wrong, my child?"

At this time, he discovered that his grandfather had never lied to him.

But apart from the mother and a sister, the atmosphere of this new family is even more suffocating than before. His father is a Duke who is admired by all, but he is as strict as a monster.

He was not afraid to use the worst words to describe this demon, and even suspected that the latter had forced that gentle mother to death.But the world has long since disappointed him, and his father is just one of its executioners.

He used to be very fond of reading books about this period of history, thinking that the rise of the bourgeoisie would be a dawn in the dark night, and the people would move towards a bright future.

However, he found that he was very wrong.

In this era of oppression, hypocrisy, and selfishness, everyone is a smiley face, and every word spoken is like water mixed in a sponge, and a Pacific Ocean can be squeezed out at will.

They only have profit in their greedy eyes, and sincerity is here, it is a rose in winter that has been run over by wheels.

So he had to put on a cold mask, suppress his own nature, reduce communication, reject anyone thousands of miles away, and become a cold and heartless noble young master in the eyes of others.

The only hobby is art, such as painting some impressionist paintings that are not allowed by the Royal Academy of Painting. This is the only way he can spend time. Only color can allow him to explore the trace of freedom.

As time passed, he not only couldn't take off this mask, but also didn't know what he should look like.

Therefore, he also responded to the beautiful and generous Miss Ivy Wellesley with a cold attitude. Under her intentional temptation, he remained unmoved and calm, and even teased her slightly with a smile.

Although the first time he saw her at the ball, he fell in love at first sight like fate.

Seeing that she was furious, but still able to raise her proud head, and said to himself with a smile, wait and see, his heart actually felt a sense of joy of having succeeded in a prank.

He had already realized that she, like himself, did not belong to this terrible era. When she helped his sister elope, he became more and more convinced of this guess.

With the attitude of a bystander, he watched her every move with cold eyes, but he couldn't help but focus all his eyes on her, and found that she was completely different from all girls.

Ivy Wellesley is ambitious and greedy for profit. Her cornflower-blue pupils only have gold coins and power in her eyes. Under her seemingly innocent face, there is a ruthless and decisive heart.

She is even a villain who challenges her own three views.

He has seen how she killed a person without hesitation, without blinking her eyes, she turned around and wiped the blood splattered on her hair without changing her face.

She also let the dog bite one arm of her own devil father, and still pretended to be nothing, as if all the commotion in the outside world had nothing to do with her.

In addition, tossing merchants to their ruins was just a daily routine for her, and she even took pleasure in it, and seeing the men crying was enough to make her feel happy.

This made him both surprised and inevitably fell into self-doubt.

He, a young man who received an elite education since he was a child, unexpectedly fell in love with such a villain at first sight, and has since unilaterally fallen in love with him.

Although such feelings are difficult for him who has always despised love.But he didn't believe that she would be ignorant of such an obvious admiration.

Obviously the way he looks at her is different from others, but including her, no one can see through his secret love for her.

Although in fact he already knew that from the day Ivy Wellesley gritted her teeth and told him to wait and see, he should have realized that the final loser would only be himself.

In this bet, Ivy is always the winner.

She can easily play with his heart, just like pulling a silk thread tied to a puppet, making him feel tense at times, rarely happy at times, and sink into the ocean of her giving involuntarily.

But she seemed to know nothing about his loss of soul, and also seemed to know it well.

Sometimes he would have preferred her to be the former, though both are equally painful.

For this reason, he felt depressed and disappointed, but at this moment, he finally got her response.

"I never said I didn't love you, Mr. Duke."

Even if she rejected his marriage proposal, the way of expressing her heart was different, but it was enough to make him ecstatic.

So he went to the battlefield with his love for her.But the enemy is so strong that it is almost indestructible. Soldiers rush up one after another to serve their emperor, and the artillery fires everywhere. Life seems fragile at this moment.

He almost thought that the Duke of Wellington would lose the war.

After all, because of the appearance of him and Ivy, the orbit of this world has already changed, and nothing is impossible.

At the same time, he is very aware of the consequences of Wellington's defeat—Napoleon will be invincible from now on, and no one in Europe will be able to stop his way of conquest. Ivy, who has no soldiers and weapons, will undoubtedly waste all her previous efforts, and even be swallowed by the flames of anger Get it clean.

Kevin Clarence, a traditional egoist, made his choice at that moment.

He was braver than anyone else until a bullet pierced his heart.

His heart, which was cut open only for her, was bleeding scarlet blood unscrupulously at this moment, splashing half of the body of the white horse below him.

In the few seconds between consciousness and death, only one word flashed through his mind.

it's a pity……

he thinks……

When he woke up, he returned to his own time again, his body was intact, and he was even as young as before.

His grandfather's country house still stood in a field of rose bushes, and with trembling hands he opened the gate.

He was pleasantly surprised to see his grandfather still sitting at the coffee table in the living room, quietly biting a walnut there - the old man often exercises his teeth in this way.

"Grandpa..." His voice was full of joy and surprise, "It's great that you are here..."

The old man raised his head, staring at him closely with his deep pupils.

"Yes, I'm still here."

The old man said nothing else, but he knew that his grandfather must know everything.

"Kevin, as you can see, I'm sitting here safe and sound." Grandfather laughed, "So don't miss me anymore. Go, I don't want to see me any more than to let you stay and stay with me." The grandson has regrets."

"grandfather……"

Tears filled his eyes instantly.

"Go and find her, she is waiting for you too."

He nodded, wiped away his tears, stretched out his hand, and hugged his grandfather deeply.

"I will always love you," said the old man lovingly.

"Me too."

After saying goodbye to his grandfather solemnly, he came to the storage room again and turned his watch hands.

In order to accurately return to her time, he chose to run on foot.

This journey was long and arduous, and he was gradually exhausted, but he never stopped his pace.

He was almost racing against the speed of light, never daring to stop for a moment, passing through the sunset and the rising sun, and running forward with the stars and the moon.

Until the surrounding scenery changed from modern skyscrapers to classical Gothic buildings, he saw her in the crowd at a glance.

Even with the passing of time, she remains as graceful as ever.

Her diadem shone brightly, and all the people were at her command reverently.

But in his pupils, only her deep and clear eyes were reflected.

"Your Majesty..." He walked towards her, "I offer you my most sincere heart."

Then he saw the joyful light bursting out of those eyes in an instant—like the brightest star in the Milky Way, it could inadvertently ignite the flame in his veins.

"I accept your heart." Regardless of the presence of the people around her, she stared at his face and held his warm palm, "You have finally returned to my side."

In the bedroom, she hugged him tightly from beginning to end, as if afraid that he would disappear again.

"God knows how much I love you," she murmured.

Although he did not become her nominal husband, she gave him the highest treatment a lover could give.

She made him her prime minister, giving him powers second only to her own.

He devoted all his energy to assisting her, and unreservedly advised her on measures to expand the country's power, such as cultivating talents, developing education, and opening schools.Because he knows that if the country lacks a prosperous education, no matter how strong it is, it will be empty talk.

He is smart, calm, and strategic. This country lacks minerals, so he suggested that the Queen sign an agreement with resource-rich African countries to exchange what the country lacks with those metal resources to manufacture advanced weapons and develop Innovative technology.

As an outstanding doctor, he is familiar with the application of antibiotics, Chinese patent medicines, and surgery. In this era when bloodletting is commonly used, the survival rate of residents in this country has always been outstanding. He even implemented welfare benefits represented by medical insurance , trying to create a welfare state where people live and work in peace and contentment.

This seemed so advanced at the time, but the people could indeed receive real benefits and were willing to fully support these policies and systems.

"Our dynasty cannot be shaken even by God." The Queen sighed.

"Don't forget, my dear Weiwei, you don't have an heir yet." He called her name with a smile.

"I forgot to ask you what name you plan to give him."

"As long as it's not Arthur, I have no objection."

"Without his mediation, my rule would not be so smooth." She kissed his forehead, "After all, how many countries want to be my enemy."

"Then make all of Europe your domain."

"That's not impossible," she said with a smile.

A huge bell rang out in the distance, accompanied by the fluttering of birds spreading their wings, slowly breaking the silence of the morning.

The sky is full of clouds and the sun rises far away from the sea level. A new era has come.
