    Whispers of Dai: A Record of Bo Ji's Resilience The winds of Dai are notoriously fierce. Just into the twelfth lunar month, snow mixed with ice pellets pelted down, freezing the vermilion gates of the Prince of Dai's mansion black. Bo Ji, wrapped in a worn cotton robe, stood under the eaves watching the servants move charcoal—the fire in the brazier flickered, barely warming her fingertips. Beside her, Liu Heng clutched her hem, whispering, "Mother, it's much colder here than in Chang'an. There's not even enough charcoal for a fire." Bo Ji patted her son's head, her gaze falling on the newly planted bamboo in the corner of the courtyard. The bamboo stalks were still thin, covered in a layer of white frost, yet they weren't bent by the weight of the snow, standing straight in the cold wind. "Heng'er, look, this bamboo looks tender, but it can withstand the wind and snow. We should learn from it here." Not long after these words, an envoy from Chang'an arrived, trudging through the snow. The bright yellow imperial edict was unfurled, each word like an icicle: Empress Lü was to betroth her niece, Lü E'xu, to Liu Heng as his princess consort. The chief steward of the Prince of Dai's residence turned pale, pulling Bo Ji into a side room, his voice trembling: "The Empress Dowager is planting spies! If we accept the marriage, and something happens to the Lü family in the future, His Highness will surely be implicated; if we don't accept, it's disobeying the imperial decree, and my son and I won't be able to stay in Dai!" Bo Ji, however, turned and went to the kitchen to fetch a bowl of hot ginger soup, handing it to the shivering messenger: "Thank you for coming through the snow, sir. Please warm yourself. The Empress Dowager is considerate of my son; we agree to this marriage." After the messenger left, Liu Heng, his eyes red, rushed into the house: "Mother! They're treating us like prisoners! I don't want to marry someone from the Lü family!" Bo Ji didn't rush to persuade him, but instead led him to the bamboo grove. Snow had accumulated on the bamboo poles, forming a thin layer; a gust of wind blew, causing the poles to sway gently, and the snow fell in a soft rustling. "Heng'er, look, if bamboo tries to withstand the wind and snow, the stalk will break long ago. It bends with the wind, the snow falls, but the roots remain firmly planted in the soil. Now that the Lü family girl is marrying into the family, we should treat her politely, not confide in her, and not provoke her, so she won't find fault. You should handle government affairs as needed, and help the people as needed, so she feels we have no ambition, and Empress Lü will be at ease." Liu Heng bit his lip and nodded, still feeling somewhat aggrieved, but he understood his mother's meaning. On the day Lü E'xu married into the family, the Prince of Dai's residence didn't hold a grand banquet, only two tables of simple food. Bo Ji personally served her new daughter-in-law, smiling as she said, "E'xu, Heng'er is honest and doesn't know how to be considerate, please bear with him. He keeps complaining about the poor harvest in Dai, and yesterday he even said he wanted to take out the Prince's grain reserves for relief. I advised him not to be so practical, but he wouldn't listen." Hearing this, the wariness in Lü E'xu's eyes eased somewhat. As time went on, Bo Ji would often tell her about Liu Heng's "foolish" deeds: "Today Heng'er went to the countryside and saw an old farmer's plow was broken, so he squatted in the field to help repair it, and his hands were all worn raw." "He said that Empress Lü was working hard to govern the country, and we shouldn't cause trouble in Dai, so we've even cut back on the expenses of the Prince's Palace. I've been wearing this cotton robe for three years." These words, along with Lü E'xu's letters, were passed to Chang'an. When Empress Lü read them, she smiled at those around her: "Liu Heng is such a simple-minded child, much less troublesome than his brothers." But no one knew that Bo Ji secretly accompanied Liu Heng to the countryside. One summer, Dai suffered a drought, and the wheat in the fields withered into dry straw. The old farmers sat on the ridges of the fields wiping away tears. Liu Heng was so anxious he couldn't sleep, so Bo Ji accompanied him to the fields before dawn to learn how to dig a well from the old farmers. Wearing a straw hat and with her trousers rolled up, she helped hand over the tools, sweat streaming down her face, but she never complained of being tired. When the Prince's palace ran out of grain, Bo Ji pawned her jewelry to buy more food to distribute to the people. An old farmer, carrying half a sack of roasted beans, came to thank them, saying tremblingly, "The princes of the past only knew how to collect taxes, they didn't care about our lives! Your Highness and the Empress Dowager truly treat us like human beings!" Bo Ji took the beans, distributed them to those around her, and then gave a few to Liu Heng: "Heng'er, try some. These beans are hard, but they'll keep you full. The hearts of the people are like this land; if you treat it well, it will grow crops; if you mistreat it, it will grow weeds. In Dai, we don't ask for much benefit from Chang'an, we only ask that the people say, 'Your Highness is a good person'—that's more precious than any title." Liu Heng chewed the beans, looking at his mother's sweat-soaked clothes, his eyes reddening. From then on, he devoted himself even more diligently to governing Dai, repairing irrigation canals, reducing taxes, and the people's lives gradually improved. They privately called him "King Benevolent." More than ten years passed, Liu Heng grew from a boy into a composed prince, and Bo Ji's hair turned gray. Someone asked her privately, "Empress Dowager, His Highness enjoys such high prestige in Dai, don't you want him to return to Chang'an and strive for a higher position?" Bo Ji smiled and pointed to the bamboo in the courtyard—spring had arrived, and tender green shoots were sprouting from the bamboo stalks, growing upwards along the old stems, full of vigor. "The time isn't right yet. If the buds are caught in a cold snap, they'll freeze. We should be like this bamboo now, deeply rooting ourselves. When the weather is favorable, we'll naturally grow tall." As she spoke, the spring breeze rustled through the bamboo grove, as if echoing her words. Bo Ji gazed in the direction of Chang'an, her eyes devoid of any eagerness for quick success, only a steady calm—she knew that as long as the roots were firmly planted, one day, the bamboo of Dai would be able to support a great sky.
