Jianjia Chronicle

Although he didn't have soldiers in hand, he could still indirectly control part of the army, so Bo Ran felt a little relieved.Don’t raise big soldiers, it’s very expensive to raise big soldiers, and it’s a waste of money.

The key issue now is how to make those generals hidden by Aweng also listen to her orders.Bo Ran knows how to sail against the current, if he does not advance, he will retreat, and he also knows what to do in whatever position he is in.

However, it seems impossible at the moment to let those generals who have fought all the way on the battlefield listen to the command of a child with no real achievements like her, so let's put it aside for the time being.In other words, no matter what other people are like, Bo Yifu, the executive Jinwu, is willing to listen to her a few words. The Jinwu Guard is equivalent to the imperial city's defense force, and Bo Ran can sit back and relax for the time being on the boundary of the capital.

After dinner, Bo Ran walked slowly to Marquis of Linzi, and told her what she had discussed with Mrs. Xie, Marquis of Linzi thought about it for a while, and then agreed: "Tell your mother to know." He cares about it, but since Bo Ran brought it up, he won't call back.It's good to be able to handle one's own affairs by oneself, even if troubles arise in the future, one has the ability to clean up by one's own.

Bo Ran didn't know what Marquis Linzi was thinking, seeing that he agreed, she smiled and said: "It was the grandson who discussed it with Auntie." She didn't say at first that it was the result of the discussion with the Xie family, but she left a line. Ah Weng refused to allow it, so as not to embarrass A Niang when she heard about it.

Marquis Linzi glanced at her, but thoughtful.Reaching out from the desk, he pulled out a few memorials for her to use as homework: "Send it back tomorrow morning, and show it to His Majesty."

Bo Ran took it with both hands and stepped back to write.

Early the next morning, after handing back the emperor's memorial and her thoughts and opinions, Bo Ran got on his horse, led a group of servants, and went to old man Min to learn cultural knowledge as usual.Old man Min felt that his youth had been spent on Bai Ran, and he applied for a trip to Beijing next year: "You have gradually started to get started with common affairs, and at the most twelve, your old man will find a family for you. You need to prepare well. .Besides, over the past few years, you have learned very well, which is enough."

Let him speak hard, Bo Ran said he would not let him go, bowed and said respectfully: "The student has achieved something in his life, he should support you." Don't go anywhere, just stay in the capital.Old man Min is a road idiot, and he doesn't like to take his juniors or disciples with him when he goes out. In this troubled time, what if he gets lost and is coaxed away by some ulterior vassal king?

The old man Min said: "How can you violate the teacher's order!"

"Students are outspoken and extremely admonishing, I hope Mr. accepts it."

The old man Min just sat on the couch and tilted his body, expressing that he didn't like to hear it, so change your mouth quickly.Bo Ran pretended not to understand, came out with his hands down, and told old man Min's old housekeeper at the door: "Sir seems to be tired, he is taking a nap, the old man should not bother him."

The old butler reassured: "Da Lang has a heart."

Old man Min who pretended to be sleeping inside: This kid is really annoying!

After about a month or so, Mrs. Chen's wife, Mrs. Zheng Guo, Chen Xianzhi's grandmother, will have her [-]th birthday.Naturally, Bai Shi also received the invitation.Due to Mrs. Zheng's seniority and the fact that the Chen family has real power at the moment, many people went to the banquet. The Marquis of Linzi, the Xie family and Bo Ran all went to the banquet.

When they arrived at the Chen Mansion, Bo Ran followed the Marquis of Linzi and Mrs. Xie into the backyard to chat with the noble ladies.

The charcoal pots in the room were burning red and warm. The wives all took off their cloaks and sat together to talk about what's new in Beijing recently, which family has added new people, and which family has married someone.Women are inherently gossip, and it doesn't change anywhere.While talking, someone asked about Bo Ran in an indirect way.

Mrs. Xie smiled and said, "Still studying with Mr. Shanqian. It is because Mr. Shanqian is very naughty that he is willing to teach her."

Everyone praised Bo Ran for being smart and eager to learn, and the topic slowly shifted to Bo Ran's marriage, jokingly saying, "I don't know which lady is a good match."

Mrs. Xia looked around and saw that everyone was listening to the movement with their ears open, Fang smiled and raised his voice slightly: "It's a pity that my family doesn't have a girl of the right age, otherwise I would have the cheek to beg in private."

Everyone's hearts were raised, and the relatives were not so straightforward. Fortunately, there is no one in her family, otherwise, should they agree or not?If you don't agree, you won't lose face. If you agree, everyone should regret to death. Such a good marriage has been preempted by someone lightly and skillfully.

As soon as he let go of his heart, he heard Mrs. Xie say slowly with a faint smile: "Only this one son, Jane loves him, and wants to stay for a few more years before we talk about marriage. This is what Junhou also means."

At that moment, the heart that had just been released into the distance immediately sank directly to the bottom.Only girls are unwilling to marry early for two years. I have never heard of boys who cherish too much and want to talk about marriage later.It's just an excuse, but even if it's just an excuse, the meaning is very clear.Everyone had their own calculations, so they had to stop their thoughts for a while and start talking about other things.

Xia Shi blinked narrowly at Xie Shi when there was no one there, Xie Shi smiled and smiled back.

At the ladies' banquet, there was a little turmoil, but it was still considered calm, but the men in the backyard were quite ups and downs.To sum it up in one sentence, Bo Ran's carelessness made Jiang Tai's face flushed with shame and anger.

Things have to start from the beginning.Bo Ran entered with the Marquis of Linzi, and the two separated.Bo Ran went to find her little friend on her own.Chen Xianzhi is the host's house today, he wanted to greet guests, when he saw Bo Ran, he hugged her and said to the guests: "This is my best friend, no distinction is made between each other."

After he said so, Bo Ran helped him out and greeted a few guests.After all the guests arrived, Chen Xianzhi took Bo Ran to the backyard to play with his peers.Passing by a gazebo by the lake, Jiang Tai was teaching Buddhism there.

Since the former dynasty, scholars have liked to study metaphysics, and metaphysics masters emerged one after another, among which Linzihou and Min Jingyuan were the leaders.by contrast.Buddhism has only become popular among scholars in the past few decades. In the past, only monks in temples studied it.

Jiang Tai obviously understood it quite well, and he talked with everyone in the pavilion, he caught a glimpse of Bo Ran and Chen Xianzhi coming over from the corner of his eye, and raised his voice to that side: "The two families of Foxuan have something in common, your ancestors and teachers are all for you. , I wonder if you have any wonderful solution?"

Everyone in the pavilion followed Jiang Tai's gaze and looked over.

Bo Ran's first reaction was that this person seemed to be targeting me.For provocations for no reason, she has never had the good temper to accept obediently.After careful identification, after finding out that it was the old Jiang family, without any hesitation, he stepped forward and made a bow to the elders in the pavilion. I'm far away, and I haven't learned clearly, my father-in-law might as well say it again."

Jiang Tai snorted coldly, put one hand behind his back, stroked his beard lightly, looked like an elder, and said loudly: "Listen well. Buddha, Jane removes all dharmas outside the mind and chooses the mind of consciousness. With my heart Recognizing the true appearance of external objects, my heart is the source. External objects and various appearances capture my heart, and external objects are the origin. Therefore, the external environment shapes my heart, and my heart shapes the external environment."

He's done.Bo Ran is silent, this is the most utilitarian Buddhist explanation she has ever heard in two lifetimes. At the beginning, it sounds like Consciousness-Only Theory, in the middle it seems to be the words of the Legalists, and in the end it seems to be saying that the times make heroes?Sure enough, family history.

Jiang Tai lowered his head and looked sideways at Bai Ran, and said, "Why don't you talk?"

At this time, the Dharma is only beginning to take shape, and even eminent monks are still confused.Bo Ran came to a conclusion silently, then bowed to the surroundings, and said, "I don't agree with my father-in-law's words. I only know that when the mind arises, all kinds of dharmas arise, and when the mind dies, all kinds of dharmas perish, and there is nothing else."

"What about the outside world?" Jiang Tai asked.

"The real world outside the mind is empty. The world is born from the mind." Bai Ran replied again.

Jiang Tai frowned: "How can the external environment be born from the heart? Zhuzi's nonsense!"

Bo Ran pointed to the center of the lake unhurriedly, and said, "It's like lake water. My father-in-law sees it as moving, and the wind sees it as still. When the mind is upright, the body is upright, and if the mind is evil, the body is destroyed. Everything is born of the mind."

There was a sudden silence all around, and there was a voice from far and near in the corner: "Great kindness!"

Bo Ran saw that General Chen and her grandfather had come back.She was also not humble, and did not speak after a salute.Jiang Tai was dissatisfied, but he couldn't find a counterexample to refute her statement that the lake was moving or not. Under the eyes of everyone, and not wanting to be ashamed, he said angrily: "Yellow mouth and white teeth, opportunism. The Dharma is profound, how can it be an upright child?" I understand!"

Bo Ran was not angry, but smiled and retorted: "If the wisdom is not strong, the way will not be achieved. My father-in-law ascended to heaven before me, and I must become a Buddha after me."

The people around couldn't help but burst out laughing.These two sentences were powerful, it was clear that he was stupid, Jiang Tai's old face was flushed, and everyone around him laughed, he was so embarrassed, he glared at Bo Ran, and the veins on his forehead bulged.

Chen Xianzhi was close to him, saw his ugly face, and was afraid that he would do something to his little friend, so he hurriedly stepped forward to help, and said with a loud laugh: "It's just to learn from each other, why bother?" The cheeks of the boy's hippie smile were full of disdain and defense, and he choked Jiang Tai again, and simply walked away.

General Chen glanced at Chen Xianzhi, Chen Xianzhi received his father's ambiguous gaze, his heart shivered, he gave Bo Ran a look of "brother, it's up to you", and obediently stepped aside.

Bo Ran knew that General Chen must have a school exam, but she had little to do with the Chen family, and she was very satisfied with killing Jiang Tai, thinking about writing a letter to her father when she got home to show off, "I killed Jiang Jingrui's father", So not too nervous.Just wait respectfully.

General Chen walked over in all directions, looked at Bo Ran with great interest, and asked, "You just said that, but do you know what Tao is?"

This is a question of divergent thinking, and everyone has a different opinion.Bo Ran thought for a moment, then replied: "Taoist, parallel is not contradictory."

General Chen laughed, turned to Xie and said, "Your grandson has a heart."

Xie Hui showed complacency in his eyes, and said modestly as usual: "It's just a little clever. It doesn't deserve Brother Chen's praise."

Xiangcheng stood behind a few holly trees on the other side of the lake and watched from the beginning to the end.The servant girl she brought said with a smile: "The one surnamed Jiang was furious, Bo Shisun is very eloquent."

Xiangcheng also felt quite relieved, there were not many people in Beijing who had a good impression of the Jiang family, not to mention that the Gu family who was trampled down by the Jiang family was still her uncle's family.She said in a bright mood: "Let's go." Turning around, the pendant on her body was flowing like a flying bird.
