Jianjia Chronicle

The Xie Mansion was no different from usual, the atmosphere was not as enthusiastic because of Xie Ming's appointment, but the faces of the servants were obviously a little more joyful.Together with his parents, Bo Ran first met with Xie Hui, and then congratulated the Lord.Since it was a congratulatory gift, the congratulatory gift that Bai Yuan prepared was a sharp sword made of fine steel that was cut like clay.

Fortunately, this congratulatory gift was carefully selected by Bai Yuan because of its meaning.

Xie Ming did not hesitate, took it generously, turned around and handed it to the servant to put it away, and said with pride: "When I go to the border, I will rely on my brother-in-law's sword to help me kill the enemy!"

Erlang thanked the director with a smile: "Let's save your bloodiness until then."

Everyone laughed when they heard the words.

Xie turned his gaze to Bo Ran who smiled with two exquisite dimples beside Xie Shi, his face became softer, and he said to Xie Shi: "Your mother has been waiting for you for a long time, take Aran to talk to her .”

Xie led Bo Ran to leave together and went to the backyard.

Xie Hui's wife's maiden name is Ji, and she is also from an aristocratic family, but her age is a little shorter, and she belongs to an emerging aristocratic family.The Ji family rose up in the last years of the former dynasty, and its ancestors were famous for their integrity and outspoken scholar-official character.Bo Ran felt that the "loyalty" of being loyal and upright was greatly discounted, otherwise, how could the Ji family become an official of the new dynasty?Cough, of course, although it is the duty of a literati to admonish Wen's death, even if he hits his head to death in the temple, it is also necessary, but the king's faint heart has chilled the hearts of many old ministers, and for the sake of the common people, he turned his head to the new emperor who overthrew the tyranny There is also loyalty.

Bo Ran respectfully greeted his grandmother Ji, every time Ji saw this clever grandson, she couldn't hide a smile on her face, she and Xie Hui had four sons, but there was only one daughter, and the son was always by his side It can be seen every day that when the daughter is married, she is someone else's person, and she doesn't see her a few times a year, so she naturally cares the most, even Bo Ran, the only grandson, loves her even more.

Mrs. Xie beckoned and asked Bo Ran to sit down on the couch beside her. After carefully looking at her for a long time, she nodded and said, "Ah Ran has grown up again."

Mrs. Xie said: "Her stature has grown extremely fast, and the clothes made in spring can no longer be worn after summer."

"At his age, when he is growing up, you value his reading, and you should always pay attention to his food and clothing, and listen to what he does every day and what he sees." With so much expectation, the little man has been teaching him how to read and write early on.This is also good, the eldest son and grandson should stand up since childhood.Ji did not forget to remind her daughter that in addition to caring about her grandson's academic performance, she should also care about his physical and mental health, so as not to have any psychological distortions and grow crooked.

Bo Ran sat aside quietly, looking at her mother upon hearing this.

Mrs. Xie is a very patient mother. Bo Ran feels deeply about this. She is often unsmiling, but occasionally she smiles, which makes people feel like a spring breeze. She doesn't speak much, but every action is gentle and caring. Her daily necessities It seems that servants are taking care of everything, but Xie has personally seen everything.She is also knowledgeable, and she will never miss an opportunity to educate her, just like explaining the ranks of military officers to her in the car, and conveying knowledge to her in a simple and simple way in daily life.

Mrs. Xie looked back at Bo Ran with warm eyes, and said back to Mrs. Ji's words: "I'll save it. I heard from my husband that my lord (father-in-law) will be a master of Aranyan next year and will be formally enlightened."

Mrs. Ji nodded: "Your children have always been formally studying at the age of four. Do you know which master it is?"

"I don't know, my lord has figured it out for himself." Xie said.No matter which one it is, the most important thing is to be knowledgeable and valuable.She guessed what Marquis Linzi meant, that the master was to teach Bo Ran the six arts of rites, music, archery, imperialism, calligraphy, and counting. As for reading history and so on, Linzi Marquis and Bai Yuan took the role of masters personally. .The Marquis of Linzi treated A Ran with utmost care.

After hearing this, the Ji family said very clearly: "Your family (mother-in-law) passed away early, and the eldest son of your family has never been reunited. He is the only one who manages the house inside and outside the house. That's his ability. He always strives for the best in everything he does, so you can rest assured." Then, he said to Bo Ran very pitifully, "Liulang and the others are in the garden, go and play with them too." Liulang here It refers to Uncle Bo Ran's son. Liu Lang's previous children are too old to play with.

Bo Ran knew that after her birthday in March next year, she would study with her master, but it was nothing difficult for her. After all, the transmigration was a deception to a certain extent, and her precocious reputation It has already spread all over the imperial capital.

However, this is next year's business. Of course, she will not refuse if she can go to play now. She must cherish every bit of her life again, especially the bright and joyful childhood.

The garden in autumn is slightly depressed.A few little kids crowded together in the pavilion, surrounded by a nine-link ring made of jade. When Bo Ran came, Qiniang, the second uncle's youngest daughter, called her happily: "Ah Ran is here."

From the surprise in her voice, it can be seen that A Ran is very popular here.

Their cousins ​​and sisters use the same big ranking for men and women.Then the third uncle's eldest son, Liu Lang, led several children to get up together, greeted Bo Ran, both of them saluted, Qiniang pulled Bo Ran's sleeve and said: "Let Ah Ran to explain, he will definitely do it. "

Rokuro nodded in agreement.Jiulianhuan is in the hands of Balang, who is smaller than Bo Ran and shorter in stature, so he raised his hand and gave Jiulianhuan to Bo Ran.The three of them stared at Bo Ran intently.

Bo Ran didn't refuse, this thing was used by Mrs. Xie as an intellectual development toy for her to play with a year ago.Three times, five divisions and two divisions, it was solved.Qiniang and Balang exclaimed: "Ah Ran is amazing."

Bo Ran was not modest, and proudly raised his eyebrows and said: "This is not difficult, I have disassembled it before." After receiving another round of adoring eyes from the little Lolita and the little Zhengtai, he put on a straight face to encourage: "Practice makes perfect, you guys I often play with it in my hand, just like me."

Qiniang and Hachiro nodded in conviction.Only Liu Lang, who was two years older than them all, watched Cousin Bai raised his two long eyebrows first, and his big eyes were full of complacency, and then he pretended a tender little face like an adult's face The cute contrast, cover your mouth and smile.

The four of them got together, and Bo Ran didn't return home with his parents until after dinner.

As Xie said, Xie Ming was not able to go into battle immediately after he was transferred to General Zuowei. Instead, he was asked to learn some military affairs under General Zhao.It was the end of September when he received the letter of appointment, and Xie Ming immediately got up and rushed to the frontier. By the time he sent back the letter of safety, it was already mid-November.

At that time, heavy snow had covered the entire land, and the memorial to the Marquis of Linzi to invite his grandson to be established was also approved. As usual, three days after receiving the edict, he would bring his grandson into the palace to thank him.

This is a common practice, used to show the emperor's grace, but most of the emperor will avoid seeing him. There are many princes inside and outside the court, and many of them have declined. There is no reason to waste time meeting people who are unable to contribute to society. The emperor's Time is also precious.But this inevitably seems utilitarian, and there is suspicion of treating the descendants of heroes less, so at the end, gradually, no matter which family it is, a sentence is added at the end of the edict, exempting from entering the palace to thank you.

But this time, for some reason, there was no such sentence in the imperial edict. The Marquis of Linzi saw that the ice was frozen three feet outside, and the geese and snow were flying. When he saw his grandson's young body, he raised his hand and stroked his half-white beard. Recently, Emperor Taiping has nothing to do, so he just messed around?

It was his fault as the prime minister that made the emperor panic.The Marquis of Linzi secretly introspected, he still has a report on Xuebeng in Liangzhou, and he will submit it tomorrow!

On the second day, the emperor was very busy with Liangzhou's avalanche, but he still hadn't forgotten about Bo Ran, and even reminded the Marquis of Linzi to bring his grandson to see him in his busy schedule.

The Marquis of Linzi was quite surprised.

Bo Ran also felt very strange, she seemed to have nothing so special that His Majesty the Emperor had to personally meet her.Anyway, if the emperor wants to see her, Bo Ran has to go this time. She is not afraid of any bad things. Her elder father is the prime minister. As long as the family is not ransacked, there is no one in the court who is more informed than Marquis Linzi. Since it is not a bad thing , there is nothing to worry about.

On the day of entering the palace, Mrs. Xie wrapped Bo Ran tightly and told her: "If you don't know whether it is appropriate to say something, you would rather not say anything, remember?"

Bo Ran complied seriously.

Compared with the Forbidden City seen in the previous life, the imperial palace of the Dashao Dynasty is more solemn and extravagant, and the foundation of the overall building is also higher, which makes it very magnificent.

The emperor was Bo Ran who met in Zhaoyang Palace.These days, if you are not in the mood, you will kneel at every turn. In such a private interview, you only need to bow and bow.

The emperor is a middle-aged man, he is not very old but already looks old. There are deep thoughts marks on the center of his brows, which are obviously the result of too much daily thinking. He is weak in nature, but he was fine when he was young. , He had nothing to argue with, but in the past two years, he became more and more sad-the queen gave birth to a daughter, and since then, the harem has not heard the cry of other babies.Since the beginning of the year, some ministers have repeatedly suggested that King Zhao be allowed to return to Beijing in order to consolidate the foundation of the country.The term Guoben often refers to the crown prince.Zhao Wang's family finally couldn't stand it anymore.

He looked at Bo Ran, and said with a smile: "This is Bai Dalang?" Three black lines silently crossed Bo Ran's heart. Every time she heard such a title, she was very grateful that she was not named Wu in this life.

"Not bad, not bad." The emperor seemed very happy: "You and Xiangcheng are only one year apart, and your birthday is on the same day. The empress often mentions this matter, since she is here, let's go see her."

When Bo Ran heard the words, he immediately realized the truth. It turned out that it was not the emperor who wanted to see her, but the queen.She turned her head to look at Marquis Linzi, seeing Marquis Linzi's gaze was deep, she nodded slightly, then bowed again, and said, "No."
