Compulsory education in ancient times

"This matter can be big or small, where is the child now?" Tao Yanran asked.

"Return to Your Majesty, I have already brought him here, and he is waiting outside the palace gate." Murong Wenyu also knew that this matter was no small matter, and did not dare to neglect it at all.After the people under him brought the child over, they immediately washed him up, fed him something, and then brought him over.

"Then quickly bring him in." It doesn't matter whether he goes to the exam or not, but this child has a lot to do with it, and Tao Yan dare not be careless.While Murong Wenyu brought the child over, he went back and changed his normal clothes into phoenix robes.

Qi Bohan saw Tao Jianran go and come back, immediately put down the imperial brush in his hand, stepped forward and hugged him: "What's wrong?"

"Murong said that the envoys from those countries missed a child in the capital. I think something is wrong." As soon as Tao Jianran finished speaking, Qi Bohan immediately understood his worry.

I am afraid that the child is a trick left by some small country, or it is an excuse to send troops.

These days, not everyone is as barbaric as the Huns.Even if other countries want to go to war, they need a decent reason to convince their own country and the people of other countries.

If something happened to that kid in Ruichao, that kid's country would have an excuse to start a war!Therefore, if something happens to that child in Ruichao, it may affect the delicate balance between Ruichao and surrounding countries at any time.

"Don't be nervous, even if the seven countries unite, they may not be our opponent." Qi Bohan comforted him very confidently.

In the war with the Huns last year, although Ruichao did not directly attack the Huns' camp, they still got a lot of good things by cleaning the battlefield after the victory.Especially the armor and weapons from the Xiongnu, as long as they are remade, they can bring a large number of new weapons and armor to Ruichao!

And now that Lao Yuan was in their hands, if a war really started, it would be no problem to spare a batch of guns quickly.

Coupled with the first batch of military doctors receiving training from the military academy, they will be able to officially enter the battlefield soon.

Counting it down in this way, today's Ruichao is very different from last year's Ruichao!If Ruichao is allowed to go to war with the Huns now, the winning rate will be great!

Tao Yanran was just habitually worrying about it. Now that he heard Qi Bohan's comfort, his brows immediately relaxed: "You are right, even if the eight of them unite, they may not be able to defeat us!"

The current Xiongnu is no different from those seven small countries. The [-] army was wiped out, and they took away a large amount of food from the country.This made the Xiongnu, who had scarce resources in winter, spend a very severe winter.

According to the reports from the spies, at least [-]% of the Huns died of hunger and cold this winter.

The Huns' national strength and military power have dropped significantly. If it wasn't because Ruichao also needed time to cultivate and recuperate, seeing the enemy's situation, even Tao Jianran would be a little ready to attack the Huns.

However, the Xiongnu had a war on their side, so we should not be careless.

Thinking of this, Tao Yanran felt a little pity again.If it wasn't for Lao Yuan's rebellious little apprentice who ran to the Xiongnu, maybe they would have blown up the Xiongnu by now!

Qi Bohan patted Tao Jianran's head: "Don't worry, I have asked the spy to figure out a way to deal with that traitor." Speaking of that traitor, a cold light flashed in Qi Bohan's eyes.

Tao Jianran didn't realize it, nodded and said: "That's fine, but we still need to make the spies be careful. After all, we have worked so hard for so long, so don't let this person be exposed."

After Tao Jianran babbled a few more words, Murong Wenyu brought the child over.

Tao Jianran looked at the child who came in behind Murong Wenyu, and saw that he was about five or six years old.She is thinner and taller than ordinary children of the same age, but her appearance looks familiar.

Isn't this high nose bridge and big eyes the appearance of the Huns? !

Tao Jianran stayed in Yizhou for a year, and he could clearly distinguish the difference between the Huns and the ordinary Ruichao people with high nose bridges.Seeing that Murong Wenyu and Qi Bohan didn't notice anything unusual, Tao Yanran hurried.He bit his ear with Qi Bohan.

Qi Bohan heard Tao Jianran's conjecture, and looked at the child with a bit of critical scrutiny.

Children are the most sensitive towards people, and when they sensed that Qi Bohan and Tao Jianran were showing some malice towards him, they quickly hid behind Murong Wenyu.

Murong Wenyu didn't know why the child was suddenly attached to him, and after reporting the child's origin to Qi Bohan again, Qi Bohan waved him away, leaving the child alone in the imperial study, facing the two of them alone. A man with a deep heart.

Without the cover of Murong Wenyu, the child stood in the empty imperial study, looking very at a loss.Like a little hedgehog who has encountered an enemy, he stared at Tao Jianran and Qi Bohan tensely.

Tao Jianran and Qi Bohan looked at each other, and decided to send Tao Jianran, who was gentler in appearance, to talk to the child first.

"Hello. Can you understand me?" Tao Yanran approached the child cautiously while talking.

But the child always vigilantly kept a distance of three meters from Tao Yanran, and ignored Tao Yanran at all.

Tao Jianran tried his best, as gentle as coaxing a child in a kindergarten, but the child was still unmoved, Tao Jianran could only look back at Qi Bohan helplessly.

Qi Bohan frowned, pretending to be angry and said: "Since he doesn't understand Ruichao's language, he should be locked up in the palace and let the nanny teach him. When he understands, bring him here."

Tao Jianran was taken aback for a moment when he heard the words, and quickly realized, "Then which nanny should teach him?"

"Isn't there a needle that was very powerful? It is said that after the needle is stuck on the body, it will not leave any wounds the next day, and no one can see that he has been needled." Qi Bohan said in a sinister tone.

As soon as Qi Bohan finished speaking, the child's body trembled with obvious fear. It was clear that he understood, but he pretended not to understand!

So Tao Yanran continued to cooperate with Qi Bohan in acting and said, "Why don't you add that nanny who likes spanking people very much? I heard that nanny likes this kind of five or six-year-old children the most."

Just as Tao Jianran finished speaking, the child finally couldn't help screaming: "You bad guys! I want to go home! I want to go home!"

Although the child's pronunciation was not very standard, he did speak Ruichao's language.Apparently, even though he grew up in another country, someone was deliberately teaching him the language of Ruichao.I'm afraid there is something very strange about this!

Tao Jianran and Qi Bohan exchanged glances, then smiled at the child: "So you understand. If you say it earlier, we won't have to waste so much time."

However, the child returned to the previous appearance of completely ignoring others, only glaring fiercely at the two bad adults.

But after confirming that the child can understand Ruichao dialect, the next thing is relatively simple. Tao Yanran continued to ask: "Who did you follow to Ruichao?"

The child didn't answer, but Tao Jianran didn't give up, but asked incessantly.

"Did they leave you on purpose, or did you sneak out?"

"What's your name?"

"how old are you?"

"Do you remember your parents?"

"Who taught your Ruichao dialect?"

Tao Yanran asked a dry mouth, but the child still ignored him. Qi Bohan saw the child bullying his daughter-in-law so much, and immediately said angrily: "If you don't answer, then you don't have to talk anymore! I'll have someone pull you out straight away." tongue!"

Qi Bohan's imposing manner made the child tremble with fright, and then he replied stumbled.

"I came from Koryo. I ran out by myself. My name is Ake. I am six years old. My parents are dead. My adoptive mother taught me. She asked me to come to Switzerland with the carriage of the adults. Chao, don’t go back.” Speaking of this, Ake immediately shed two lines of tears, and then couldn’t control his emotions, he just sat down on the ground and began to cry.

Tao Jianran thought it was the two of them who had frightened Ake, and was about to step forward to comfort him, but was grabbed by Qi Bohan: "Don't get too close to him." Although such a child of unknown origin is not lethal, it is too close It's not safe either.

Tao Yan didn't know why, but he still obeyed obediently, but from a distance, he comforted softly: "My dear boy, don't cry. The uncles were scaring you just now, as long as you obey obediently, we will never hurt you."

However, Ake seemed unable to hear him again, and was immersed in his own crying and couldn't extricate himself.After crying for a full 10 minutes, she stopped slowly and said with a sob: "Mother asked Ake to come to the king of Ruichao, are you the king of Ruichao?"

Hearing this, Tao Jianran and Qi Bohan were a little surprised.They thought that this child was a hidden danger left by a certain country, so it seems that they guessed wrong?

Just a six-year-old child, looking for the emperor of a country, what can he do?Tao Jianran still couldn't figure it out, but a gleam flashed in Qi Bohan's eyes.

Seeing that the two of them didn't answer, Ake said to himself: "Mother said, the kings of the Rui Dynasty all call themselves me." After speaking, he slowly rolled up his sleeves.

Tao Jianran saw that Ake had a ferocious prairie wolf tattooed on his thin arm!

Although Qi Bohan had expected it long ago, when he saw it with his own eyes, he still couldn't restrain his excitement, and whispered: "Are you Rodke?"

Rodke?What's the deal with Rodney?

A flash of inspiration flashed in Tao Jianran's mind, and he thought of the youngest son left behind by Khan the Hun that Qi Bohan had mentioned before!

Qi Bohan also explained in a low voice next to Tao Yanran's ear: "I've seen that tattoo before, it's a totem that can only be tattooed by the Huns' royal family."

Seeing that the two of them still didn't respond for a long time, Rodke began to sob softly again.
