In the 11th year of the Tianjian era, 512 AD, was a peaceful and prosperous year for the Liang Kindom dynasty. Against this backdrop, the three daughters of Xiao Yan and Chao Qinglan - Xiao Yuelan, Xiao Yao, and Xiao Sa - grew up leisurely in the palace.
Within the Liang Kindom palace, the spring was in full bloom, with flowers blossoming everywhere, turning the palace gardens into a magnificent sea of colors.
On such a vibrant morning, Chao Qinglan took a walk in the garden with her three daughters. Each child's face has features similar to either her or Xiao Yan, but each person's temperament is unique.
The eldest daughter, Xiao Yuelan, is already twelve years old and is gradually showing the grace of a young lady. There is a scholarly air in her eyes, indicating her keen interest in learning.
She inherited her mother's intelligence and her father's courage, with an endless thirst for books, especially history and poetry. Chao Qinglan often read with her, telling stories from ancient and modern times, teaching her the beauty of poetry and rhythm.
The second daughter, Xiao Yao, four years old, has a pair of lively eyes and shows an exceptional interest in music and painting. Chao Qinglan specially sought out the best musicians and painters in the palace to guide her learning.
The youngest, Xiao Sa, only one year old, has already shown a lively and curious nature. Sometimes Xiao Yan holds her and softly tells her the history of Liang Kindom, hoping that she will understand this hard-won peace in the future.
" Yuelan, how's the book you've been reading recently?" Chao Qinglan asked, her voice filled with a mother's unique tenderness and concern.
Xiao Yuelan Her eyes lit up, "Mother, the book 'The Book of Later Han' becomes more interesting the more I read it. It not only contains the twists and turns of history, but also a lot of wisdom and strategy. I feel that I have benefited a lot from it."
Chao Qinglan She smiled slightly, feeling proud of her daughter's interest and intelligence. "Very good. Reading can broaden one's mind and increase knowledge. I hope you can learn more from it and become a pillar of the country in the future."
Turning to the lively and active Xiao Yao, Chao Qinglan said, "Yao'er, remember not to always chase butterflies, but also take the time to study quietly."
Xiao Yao pouted but still nodded, "I understand, Mother."
Chao Qinglan gently patted Xiao Sa's head and said, "Although Sa is still young, she must study hard and become a smart and clever girl when she grows up."
At that moment, Xiao Yan walked over from a distance, his eyes filled with love and warmth. "Seeing you all like this fills my heart with hope. Our daughters will surely become the pride of Liang Kindom in the future."
Chao Qinglan looked up at her husband, a hint of determination flashing in her eyes. "Yes, we will definitely educate them with care, so that they will become talented and virtuous women."
On a sunny afternoon, Chao Qinglan took her daughters for a walk in the palace garden. She carefully explained the names and characteristics of each flower and plant, teaching them to cherish these lives.
"Mother, are there really fairy flowers in this world that can make people forget their worries, like the ones described in poems?" Xiao Yuelan asked curiously.
Chao Qinglan smiled and replied, "In the Queen Mother's heart, the three of you are the most beautiful fairy flowers, making me forget all my worries."
Xiao Yao tugged at Chao Qinglan's sleeve and whispered, "Mother, I also want to become a fairy flower that brings happiness to people."
Chao Qinglan bent down and kissed her forehead, "Yao'er, you are already mine."
At this moment, Xiao Yan walked over from a distance and saw this heartwarming scene, feeling full of happiness and contentment. He joined them, and the family strolled in the garden, enjoying this rare moment of peace.
" Yuelan, Yao'er, Sa'er, this country, this land, will need you one day. Not only as members of the royal family, but also as citizens of this country. You must learn how to love it, protect it, and contribute your strength to it."
Xiao Yan said to his three daughters with great seriousness, his eyes filled with expectation and trust.
Xiao Yuelan nodded earnestly, her eyes shining with dreams and determination for the future. "Father, I will learn more and help you and mother in the future, and contribute to Liang Kindom."
Xiao Yao then tightly held Chao Qinglan's hand and said in her tender voice, "I want to learn painting, to depict the most beautiful scenery of Liang Kindom, so that everyone can see the beauty of our country."
Even though Xiao Sa didn't fully understand the meaning of these words, she happily clapped her hands in her mother's embrace, as if expressing her love for the family in her own way.
On that day, Chao Qinglan and Xiao Yan not only focused on educating their daughters in literature, music, and art, but also emphasized the importance of instilling in them a sense of responsibility and mission towards their country.
They hope that, regardless of how the world changes in the future, their daughters can become knowledgeable, virtuous, and responsible women, contributing their strength to the prosperity and stability of Liang Kindom.
As night fell, the palace returned to tranquility. After Xiao Yan and Chao Qinglan escorted their daughters back, the two sat facing each other in the bedchamber, discussing state affairs and also expressing their expectations and plans for their daughters.
They are well aware that as royal family members, their daughters' paths will be full of challenges, but also full of opportunities.
" Qinglan, no matter what the future holds, we must protect them and make them happy," Xiao Yan said affectionately.
Chao Qinglan smiled gently, "Yes, Yan'er, we will. They are our pride and the future of Liang Kindom."
In that ancient era, the love of an emperor and empress for their country and family intertwined, shaping a touching story.
And their daughters are the most beautiful scenery in this story. Their growth will paint a more brilliant picture for Liang Kindom.
On a pleasant spring afternoon, Xiao Yan and Chao Qinglan were enjoying a peaceful family time with their daughters in the palace garden. At that moment, Xiao Yan's younger brother, Xiao Hong, unexpectedly visited, disrupting the tranquility and harmony.
Xiao Hong, 39 years old, is a well-built and handsome general with talent and respect in Liang Kindom.
Although the years have left slight traces on his face, his handsome appearance and majestic temperament still make him stand out among the crowd.
When Xiao Yuelan saw Sixth Uncle Xiao Hong, a shy blush involuntarily appeared on her face.
She has always admired this Sixth Uncle since she was young, and his stories always inspire her endless imagination. Xiao Hong also has a special affection for this great niece, always smiling as she listens to her talk about her progress and confusion in her studies.
Xiao Hong's purpose for this trip is to report on state affairs to Xiao Yan, but he also takes the opportunity to chat with his family, sharing his experiences on the battlefield and the turmoil of state affairs.
His story not only inspired Xiao Yuelan's passion for learning, but also filled Xiao Yao with curiosity about the outside world.
" Yuelan, you have grown up now, not just in appearance but also in maturity," Xiao Hong said with a smile. "You should take control of your own future and not be afraid to pursue your dreams."
Xiao Yuelan listened to Sixth Uncle's words, and a determination flashed in her eyes. She knew that she not only had to learn the knowledge in the books well, but also how to become a responsible princess of Liang Kindom.
Xiao Yan listened to the conversation between the brothers, and satisfaction flashed in his eyes.
