Chapter 113 - Aunt Changed to Senior Sister

Hongyi was tightly hugged by Kong Sizhen behind his back, unable to move, or to be honest, unwilling to move at all. In the past two years, Kong Sizhen has indeed undergone earth-shaking changes in the eyes of Hongyi, from a ten-year-old girl to a thirteen-year-old girl.

Hongyi's somewhat twisted and enjoyable expression was understood as a sign of shyness and helplessness in the eyes of the Queen Mother, so she opened her mouth and commanded:

"Sizhen, let go of my Xuanye, look, it's all strangled him! Don't forget, the little emperor and grandson of the mourning family are now a big man. Yesterday, you still had a noble and told me.,Say that now our little master is what kind of 'one lord and four positions' of noble.,It's the first time I've heard of it.,It seems that this palace and outside the palace have spread all over me before I know it.。 However, these four titles are not words, they are all given by the emperor...... I said Sizhen, why are you still holding him, you see that we are restrained by the Qing Dynasty Belle Ye, you little girl, let go...... Giggle...... Bumu Butai was stern, but Zuihou couldn't help but laugh.

"County lord, you can give the slave maid a face, let our master go, or the queen mother will punish us in a while!" Su Mala on the side finally found an opportunity, walked in front of the two of them with a smile, and gently "liberated" the little master Xuanye from Kong Sizhen's arms, but Hongyi was a little stunned.

"Okay, Aunt Su Mala also helped the Queen Mother bully me!" Kong Sizhen pretended to be annoyed, and chased after Su Mala to snatch Xuan Ye back.

"Alright, alright. Sizhen, you are an aunt after all, why are you still as unrelenting as a child? Hehe...... "The queen mother saw that her juniors were happy in front of her, and she was already smiling.

Seeing that he was about to be "happily" captured by Kong Sizhen again, Hongyi suddenly remembered a matter on his mind, but now is the best time to solve it. So, when his little hand was grabbed by Sizhen's "aunt" as he wished, he returned to his normal appearance of a wise child, and couldn't help but say that he took Sizhen's hand. and dragged it to the Queen Mother.

“haha。 Xuan Ye wants to run, but my aunt won't let you run into the arms of the queen mother and hide it! Kong Sizhen also smiled from ear to ear, but she didn't dare to really exert herself on the two-year-old child. After all, I have practiced archery and horses in the army since I was a child, and my strength is much greater than that of ordinary girls. Thereupon. Pull and pull between. Hongyi had already pulled his "aunt" to the throne as he wished. While still thinking in his heart:

Aunt? Hehe, why don't you call your aunt in the future? Didn't Yang Guo accept his aunt? Besides, there is another paragraph in Pu Songling's "Strange Tales from Liaozhai" - there is a one named Chai Tingbin. His wife, Jin, killed his two beautiful concubines one after another. So Chai Tingbin secretly bought a house outside, preparing to buy a second room. Once met the daughter of the Shao family at a friend's funeral, so he sent a matchmaker to the door, gossiped with the mother of the Shaw family, and finally saw his daughter, so the matchmaker praised and said: "What a beautiful aunt!" If you go to Zhaoyang Courtyard, how can you count the sisters of the Zhao family! [1] "Aunt" here is an honorific title for an unmarried young woman, just like "girl"! Even if I call you "Auntie" in the future, it will mean the same as "Flower Girl"!

"Huang Mama, my grandson wants to learn the Four Books and Five Classics with my aunt!" Hongyi blurted out before his neck fell into Gentle Township again.

"This ......" Empress Dowager Bumu Butai was coldly asked, and was a little caught off guard. Originally, she wanted Kong Sizhen to replace the position of Dong E's in her son Fulin's heart, so she did what she liked, and let Sizhen, who grew up in the military camp since childhood, hurry up to learn Sinology. Unexpectedly, Sizhen's joke just now was taken seriously by Xiao Xuanye. No matter how much you kid concentrates on Muhan, won't it become a second blessing? That's not going to work!

"Xuan Ye, don't mention this matter again. Didn't your emperor Ama have already made a decree that the children of the clan will never stop studying Chinese characters and books, and specialize in studying all books? You can't take the lead in breaking the rules. The Queen Mother thought twice and moved out of her son's will.

"But Sun Er has already asked a few officials of the Longxing Holy Miracle Day, Huang Ama's will is aimed at those who are over ten years old in the sect [Qing Shilu records this], but Xuan Ye is not yet old and has not yet entered the sect, why can't he learn a little first with his aunt?" Hongyi came prepared.

"This ......"

"Huang Mama, say it again. Huang Ama was full of poetry and books, full of economy, regardless of the Manchu and Han dynasties, the ministers were full of admiration. If my grandson doesn't learn Sinology, I won't be able to understand Huang Ama's high-minded talk, so how can I help him? How can you help the emperor with Huang Mama? Hongyi is showing his united front with the Queen Mother. If you don't understand Fu Lin's actions, words and deeds, how can you report the situation to Grandma Huang in time?

Bumu Butai was used in his heart and nodded slightly, but he still didn't agree.

"In another place, my grandson is now in charge of the firearms camp with Tang Lao Mafa. In order for the firearms of the Qing Dynasty to stand alone in the world, the firearms monographs of the former Ming Dynasty must be well understood. Relying on John Tang and Lao Marfa alone, after all, it is still a dummy, which is not as convenient as knowing it in my own heart. Moreover, Tang Lao Marfa is still the same as the West, how much does he know about the firearms of the former Ming, and his grandson is not easy to make a certain remark rashly. But if while learning Han Confucianism, we can widely collect the war strategies of the former Ming Dynasty, wouldn't it be like a tiger with the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty? The meaning of Hongyi's paragraph is to start from his own political achievements, that is, to show that he is also selfish, not a whim.

Unexpectedly, the Queen Mother didn't say anything further after hearing this, but Kong Sizhen behind her was a little strange. Tightly clinging to the chest of the "aunt", Hongyi's little head was just at the mouth of her heart, just when everyone was silent and the queen mother was silent, in the silence, Hongyi could hear that the girl's heartbeat seemed to speed up suddenly, "poof" was like a rabbit!

Strange, why did she get excited when I said firearms? Hongyi remembered the plot when he was in the Yugong in the morning, as soon as he mentioned artillery, Kong Sizhen was impatient to interject, and he was even more puzzled.

"yes. The queen mother, Sizhen reads every day according to your will, except for the four books and five classics, which is the war book, which is very boring, and the huge queen ~ In the palace, except for Sizhen, other concubines and concubines don't need to learn it, my daughter is so boring! If Xiao Xuanye is willing to learn with me, wouldn't it be a lot of fun? Kong Sizhen helped in the back.

"Alas, the mourning family let you learn those four books and five classics and war strategies. It's not because you're my daughter. But I'm also a Han person, if you learn the knowledge of Han Confucianism, won't it make those who say I'm stubborn shut up? "The Empress Dowager said a high-sounding reason, but it is not good to go further - to send you to approach and charm the emperor. Later, I learned the art of war, and I will hold your father's "Heavenly Blessing Soldier" in my royal hands for me!

"That's fine. It is indeed useless for these concubines in the Hou~ court to learn those. Naturally, I won't be able to accompany you...... Xuan Ye is still young, so I can be your companion. That being the case, Su Ma. You talk to the emperor tomorrow, and let Fan Chengmo be the lecturer of Xuanye and Fuquan's Longxing Holy Relics Day, and at the same time, quietly teach Xuanye enlightenment, and by the way, teach it together with Sizhen! As for the art of war, when Hong Chengchou returned to the dynasty from the south, he will teach you again, don't forget, he is a Jinshi of the former Ming Dynasty, he is a good scholar, and later he also served as Chongzhen's military secretary and Jiliao governor, and he also knows the art of war. The Queen Mother finally opened her mouth.

"Xuan Ye thanked Huang Mama!"

"Sizhen thanked the Queen Mother!"

The two of them saluted together.

"Congratulations to the Queen Mother! Congratulations to Lord Belle! Lord Heshikong! Su Mala was also full of joy, and gave a half-squat salute to the three of them in a row.

"Hehe, Xiao Xuanye, I'm your senior sister now! Don't give me a salute yet? Kong Sizhen once again showed her cleverness and liveliness.

"Oh! Xuan Ye has seen his aunt and senior sister! Hongyi was overjoyed, hurriedly pretended to be cute, and turned around to call Kong Sizhen a thousand children.

"Haha, what aunt and senior sister, Xuan Ye, you stupid boy, doesn't this mess up the generations? Haha...... "The Queen Mother was amused and trembled again.

"By the way, you can learn the Han Xue Soldier Book quietly, but the archery is ......" The Queen Mother suddenly remembered something, suppressed her smile and began to admonish.

"Archery, horse riding and archery is the foundation of my Qing Dynasty, and it must not be wasted!" Kong Sizhen grabbed the topic, and walked to Hongyi with his hands behind his back, and taught a serious lesson.

"Grandson Zun...... Respect the Empress Dowager's decree and follow what the senior sister said! Hongyi deliberately widened his eyes as a state of embarrassment, and then took advantage of the situation, first thanked the Queen Mother for her teachings, and also changed the title of Kong Sizhen.

"You little dead girl, robbed me, come on, watch the fight!" The queen mother laughed and scolded, all of which was love.

"Queen Mother, don't worry, Xiao Xuanye is strong and strong, and he must be a good archer! He is still young, and he was punished by giving Chenda to teach him, so it is better to start learning from me, our Confucian family's big knife method, Sizhen still learned a little. [What weapon does Kong Youde use? Hongyi didn't find it for a while, and the official can point out one or two]

My good aunt and sister! You are really my dear sister! How do you know that people want to learn a little traditional martial arts to strengthen their bodies and protect themselves?

"King Kong's broadsword? My Wanli mother, Sizhen, don't be reckless, Xuan Ye is not yet three years old, what do you Han people say about that 'Miao'...... How? Expensive? The Queen Mother looked at Shang Yougui.

"Back to the Queen Mother's words, is it 'sprouting seedlings'?" Shang Yougui hurriedly put away a smile on his face and replied respectfully.

"That's right, it's the seedlings that help grow! It's good for your little Nizi to give him a few tips from his fists and feet, and after the age of four or five, I'll find one or two from the ministers of the guard who can use kung fu immediately, and be Xuan Ye's master. At that time, look at the strength of your Confucian sword, or Manchurian bow horses! "The queen mother still attaches more importance to the kung fu of the Manchurians, and is not very interested in the Han people's flower fist and embroidered legs. [Huaquan embroidered leg is a Chinese word, belonging to the Chinese idiom, from the Qing Dynasty. The 69th chapter of Qian Cai's "The Complete Biography of Yue": "I saw Zhang Guoqian tied up his fists and embroidered legs, and the two teachers Qi Guangzu and Qi Jizu followed behind, walked up to the stage, and sat down on both sides. "So this can't come from Bumu Butai's mouth, it can only appear in Hongyi's speculation]

"Naturally, our Manchurian bow horses are powerful, and my Confucian sword technique is just a scratch of the surface! Even the queen mother is now personally carrying a knife and straddle the horse, how many can match it? Isn't it, Aunt Sumala? Kong Sizhen hurriedly greeted the Queen Mother and showed her cleverness.

Su Mala just laughed and couldn't answer.

"Old woman, do I still carry a knife and straddle the horse? I'm not done, I'm old! haha! If the mourning family is still the same size as you, now I will mention three fast horses, and I won't have to dismount for three days and three nights, and I will run back to the Horqin grassland directly...... haha, you little hooves know to make fun of me, haha...... "The queen mother is really happy, and Hongyi can't help but admire this senior sister who he just recognized is really ice and snow smart, and she really knows how to stammer!"

"Okay, okay, let you make a fuss, my old bones are laughing apart...... Ouch...... I'm tired and tired, I'm going to enjoy my afternoon nap, so let's all go play. The Queen Mother stopped the giggle for half an hour in time. She is only in her fifties, so naturally she will not be as tired as she said, but after being happy, she must find back the majesty of her "mother's world" [2] in time.

"Then Sizhen wishes the Queen Mother a good night's sleep! In my dream, I went back to the Horqin prairie and galloped! Kong Sizhen hurriedly said again.

"Okay, you guys go!" The Queen Mother gladly accepted.

"Xuan Ye, go to Senior Sister to play, I'll give you something good quietly!" After Kong Sizhen got up, he couldn't help but take Hongyi's little hand and walked outside the hall.

Good stuff? What's the good stuff? Is it ......? Good sister, I'm still young! Hongyi muttered in his heart, but there was no ambiguity under his feet, he grabbed the girl's jade hand tightly, and went to the side hall.
