The General's Mansion's cultural school gradually developed amidst setbacks, but Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er's exploration of education did not stop there. They knew that times were changing, and that simply adhering to old rules would make it difficult to cultivate family pillars and national talents suited for the future.
One day, Xiao Yichen returned to the capital from the borderlands, bringing back many stories of his experiences in other places. He said to Lin Wan'er, "Wan'er, during this trip, I saw that the borderlands, due to frequent exchanges with other countries, have integrated many foreign elements into their education system. They emphasize the cultivation of practical skills and innovative thinking, and the people they educate are able to handle various situations flexibly. In comparison, our education seems too confined to tradition. If this continues, I fear our family's descendants will find it difficult to stand firm in the ever-changing world of the future."
Lin Wan'er wholeheartedly agreed: "Yichen, you are absolutely right. In my teaching at the Cultural Academy, I have also found that traditional education methods restrict children's nature and creativity. We do need to think about a path of educational reform, but we still need to carefully plan where to start."
Therefore, the couple summoned knowledgeable people from the general's mansion, as well as teachers from the cultural school, to discuss strategies for educational reform.
Master Su Wenxuan spoke first: "Traditional education in classics, history, philosophy, and literature is certainly important, but if we could add practical subjects such as mathematics, astronomy, and geography, so that students could understand the principles of the world, it would surely be of great benefit to them in the future."
Mr. Li Mobai echoed, "Painting and handicrafts should not be neglected either, as they can cultivate students' hands-on and aesthetic abilities. For example, making pottery and wood carvings can not only inherit ancient crafts but also stimulate their creativity."
Painter Lin Ruoxue suggested, "We could offer music and dance classes. Music can soothe the mind and cultivate character, while dance can strengthen the body and help develop students' sense of rhythm and coordination."
Everyone shared their opinions, leading to a lively discussion. Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er listened attentively, absorbing the wisdom from all sides. Ultimately, they decided to completely reform the Cultural Academy.
In terms of curriculum design, the core positions of classical literature and etiquette culture are retained, while practical subjects are significantly expanded. Mathematics courses are no longer limited to simple arithmetic operations, but introduce Western mathematical concepts such as algebra and geometry, teaching students how to use mathematical knowledge to solve real-life problems, such as land surveying and business accounting.
The astronomy and geography courses are equipped with simple telescopes and geographical models, allowing students to observe the mysteries of the starry sky firsthand and understand the distribution and formation of mountains and rivers. The teachers recount how navigators used astronomical knowledge to orient themselves and how explorers drew maps on unknown continents, inspiring students' curiosity and desire to explore the unknown world.
The craft courses are diverse, including not only traditional calligraphy and painting, but also pottery, wood carving, and embroidery. In the pottery workshop, students sculpt clay into exquisite utensils by hand, experiencing the transformation of clay under their fingertips; in the wood carving class, they learn how to use carving knives to give life and soul to wood; in the embroidery classroom, girls focus intently on threading needles, embroidering beautiful patterns onto brocade.
Music and dance classes are also very popular. The music classroom is filled with various musical instruments, from the melodious guqin to the crisp bamboo flute, from the powerful chime bells to the graceful pipa. Teachers instruct students on the techniques of playing these instruments while explaining the cultural connotations and historical heritage of ancient music. In dance classes, students learn different styles of dance, such as court dance and folk dance, experiencing the rhythm and flow of their bodies through movement.
However, the path to educational reform is not smooth. The constraints of traditional ideas stand like a mountain blocking the way. Many elders in the family expressed doubt and opposition to these new subjects.
An elder in the family sternly rebuked them, saying, "How can these strange and frivolous skills be compared with the teachings of sages? Making children learn these things is a waste of their precious time and a deviation from the right path."
Despite the immense pressure, Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er did not back down. They visited each of their family elders, patiently explaining the significance and purpose of educational reform.
Xiao Yichen said, "Elders, times are changing. If we remain complacent, our family members will find it difficult to adapt to future challenges. These new disciplines are not useless; rather, they enable them to better understand the world, master skills, and thus contribute to the family and the country in different fields."
Lin Wan'er gently advised, "Traditional sage teachings are the foundation, and we have not abandoned them. New disciplines are merely expansions and supplements on this basis, like adding bricks and tiles to a building, making it more stable and magnificent."
Through their tireless efforts, some of the family elders gradually changed their views and began to support educational reforms.
But new problems arose one after another. The shortage of teachers became a major problem. In the capital, there were many scholars who were proficient in traditional subjects, but very few who had in-depth research and teaching experience in these emerging subjects.
Xiao Yichen searched far and wide, sending people to various places to recruit talents. They invited a scholar who was good at Western mathematics to teach arithmetic; an explorer who was knowledgeable in astronomy and geography to teach astronomy and geography courses; and they also invited folk craft masters and musicians to teach students handicrafts and music and dance.
With the advancement of educational reform, cultural schools have been revitalized. Students are no longer confined to dry book knowledge; their horizons have broadened, and their thinking has become more active.
In a math competition, the students used their knowledge of algebra and geometry to successfully solve a complex engineering measurement problem, which greatly amazed the teachers present.
During an astronomy observation class, the students discovered a new meteor through a telescope. They excitedly recorded the moment and had a lively discussion about the meteor's trajectory and composition.
The handicraft exhibition showcased exquisite pottery, wood carvings, and embroidery works by students, demonstrating exceptional artistic skill and creativity. One wood carving, themed around the General's Mansion, vividly depicted the mansion's architecture and figures, earning unanimous praise.
During the music and dance performance, students dressed in gorgeous costumes danced gracefully on stage while playing melodious music. Their performance blended traditional and modern elements, combining the elegance of court dance with the liveliness of folk dance, bringing the audience a visual and auditory feast.
Xiao Nianchen thrived in this wave of educational reform. He showed a keen interest in astronomy and geography, often observing the starry sky with his teachers at night and exploring the mysteries of the universe. In the handicraft courses, he displayed extraordinary creativity, and his pottery works were unique and considered masterpieces of the school.
Seeing the children's growth and progress after the educational reform, Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er felt deeply gratified. They knew that although this path of educational reform was full of thorns, as long as they persisted, they would surely cultivate generation after generation of outstanding talents with knowledge, skills, and innovative spirit for the General's Mansion and the country, writing their own glorious chapters in the long river of history.
The General's Mansion has seen initial success in educational reforms, and the mansion is thriving. However, beneath the calm surface, undercurrents are surging, and a business crisis is quietly approaching.
That day, Xiao Yichen was handling business in his study as usual when the steward rushed in, looking flustered. He was carrying a stack of account books and said in a slightly trembling voice, "Young Master, something has happened. Business at our General's Mansion's shops in various places has plummeted recently. Many shops are not only experiencing a sharp decline in sales, but are also facing difficulties in cash flow."
Xiao Yichen frowned, took the ledger and carefully examined it. The numbers on the ledger were shocking; many shops had been losing money for months and had serious inventory backlogs. His heart sank, knowing that this was no small matter. He immediately sent someone to summon the staff and managers in charge of commercial affairs in the General's Mansion to discuss countermeasures.
Everyone gathered in the study, the atmosphere heavy. A senior shopkeeper spoke first: "Young Master, this business crisis has come on strong. According to my investigation, a batch of goods of unknown origin but extremely low prices have suddenly appeared on the market. These goods are very similar to those sold in our General's Mansion shops, seriously stealing our customers."
Another aide chimed in, "Not only that, we've also discovered that several suppliers who have long-term partnerships with the General's Office have recently reduced their supply volumes, and some have even terminated their cooperation altogether. This has resulted in a shortage of our goods, and many orders cannot be delivered on time, which has severely damaged our reputation among our customers."
Xiao Yichen pondered for a moment and asked, "Do you know where these goods of unknown origin come from? Is there someone deliberately manipulating things behind the scenes? And why did those suppliers suddenly terminate their cooperation?"
Everyone looked at each other, shaking their heads to indicate they didn't know. Xiao Yichen realized that a huge conspiracy must be hidden behind this business crisis, and if the truth wasn't found out in time, the General's Mansion's business foundation might be shaken.
He acted decisively, deciding to send his trusted confidants to secretly investigate the matter. Meanwhile, to stabilize the shop's operations, Xiao Yichen ordered a series of emergency measures. First, he ordered price reductions and promotions on excess inventory to recoup funds; second, he actively sought new suppliers to ensure a stable supply of goods; and third, he strengthened shop management and services to improve the customer shopping experience, attempting to win back some customers.
Upon learning of the business crisis, Lin Wan'er also took the initiative to assist Xiao Yichen. With her intelligence and meticulousness, she carefully reviewed the General's Mansion's business accounts, attempting to uncover some clues.
During the investigation, Xiao Yichen's confidants discovered some suspicious clues. It turned out that all of this was the work of a wealthy merchant in the capital named Wang Cai. Wang Cai had always been jealous of the General's Mansion's achievements in the commercial field and attempted to squeeze its business influence out of the market, thereby monopolizing the area. He secretly colluded with some unscrupulous merchants, privately setting up underground workshops to produce counterfeit and shoddy goods, which he then dumped on the market at extremely low prices to undermine the General's Mansion's shops. At the same time, he also used his connections to threaten the General's Mansion's suppliers, forcing them to sever their cooperation with the General's Mansion.
Upon learning the truth, Xiao Yichen was furious. He knew that to completely resolve this business crisis, he had to address the root cause and strike at Wang Cai's conspiracy.
Therefore, Xiao Yichen decided to seek the help of the imperial court. He compiled relevant evidence and submitted a memorial to the court, exposing Wang Cai's illegal activities. Upon learning of this, the imperial court attached great importance to the matter and immediately ordered a thorough investigation of Wang Cai and the forces behind him.
With the intervention of the imperial court, Wang Cai's underground workshop was shut down, all counterfeit and substandard goods were confiscated, and he himself received his due punishment. Those suppliers he had threatened, upon learning the truth, resumed their cooperation with the General's Mansion.
However, the General's Mansion's commercial reputation suffered some damage after this business crisis, and its market share also declined. Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er understood that there was still a long way to go to restore the General's Mansion's former commercial glory.
They began to restructure the General's Mansion's commercial layout. On the one hand, they strengthened brand building for the shops, focusing on the quality and uniqueness of goods, and launched a series of exclusive high-quality products to enhance the General's Mansion's commercial reputation and brand awareness. On the other hand, they expanded commercial channels, actively venturing into emerging commercial fields in addition to traditional physical store operations. For example, they cooperated with some caravans from other regions to conduct long-distance trade, selling local specialty products to other places, while also introducing exotic treasures from other regions to enrich the variety of goods in the shops.
In addition, Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er also focused on cultivating business talent. They opened a business school in the General's Mansion, inviting experienced merchants to teach business management, financial management, marketing and other knowledge and skills, so as to build up talent reserves for the long-term development of the General's Mansion's business.
Thanks to their tireless efforts, the General's Mansion's commerce gradually recovered. Sales at the General's Mansion's shops began to steadily rise, new business cooperation projects emerged continuously, and a group of outstanding business talents trained by the business school gradually began to emerge, injecting new vitality into the development of the General's Mansion's commerce.
This business crisis made Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er realize that the business world is like a battlefield, full of deceit and unknown challenges. But they firmly believe that as long as the couple works together, using their wisdom and courage to cope, they will definitely be able to protect the foundation of the General's Mansion's business, ride the waves of commerce, and continue the business legend of the General's Mansion.
After weathering a business crisis, the General's Mansion gradually stabilized. However, external changes brought new challenges. A political upheaval in a neighboring country, like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, triggered a chain reaction in diplomatic relations, instantly escalating the previously peaceful border situation into tension.
Xiao Yichen received an urgent report at the morning court session: after the new ruler of the neighboring country ascended the throne, he adopted an aggressive expansionist policy. His border troops frequently conducted military exercises at the border between the two countries, showing off their power. At the same time, they set up numerous checkpoints for passing merchants, ruthlessly exploiting them, which led to the near severing of trade between the two countries. Many people who originally relied on cross-border trade for their livelihoods have lost their jobs as a result, prices in the border areas have skyrocketed, and the people are suffering.
The Emperor was deeply worried about this, and the ministers in the court discussed it extensively, with differing opinions. Some ministers advocated sending troops to conquer the country, in order to demonstrate the nation's prestige and strength and deter neighboring countries from underestimating them; while others believed that diplomatic channels should be used first to mediate and try to avoid war, since war would bring enormous disaster to the people of both countries.
After careful consideration, Xiao Yichen stepped forward and advised the Emperor: "Your Majesty, I believe we should first try to resolve the dispute through diplomatic means. While military action can demonstrate national power, the cost of war is too heavy, plunging countless people into the flames of conflict. We could first send an eloquent envoy, well-versed in diplomacy, to the neighboring country to explain our position and attitude, while also understanding the neighboring country's true intentions and exploring the possibility of a peaceful resolution. If diplomatic efforts fail, then we can consider military action."
The Emperor nodded slightly in agreement after hearing Xiao Yichen's suggestion: "General Xiao is quite right. In your opinion, who is suitable to undertake this important mission?"
Xiao Yichen pondered for a moment and said, "I recommend Su Jin, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Rites. Minister Su is learned, eloquent, and familiar with diplomatic etiquette and the national conditions of various countries. He will surely be able to fulfill this mission."
The Emperor adopted Xiao Yichen's suggestion and appointed Su Jin as the envoy to the neighboring country. He also ordered Xiao Yichen to be in charge of the overall arrangements for this diplomatic mission, ensuring the safety of Su Jin and his entourage and the successful completion of their mission.
Upon learning that Xiao Yichen had taken on a heavy diplomatic mission, Lin Wan'er was worried, but she also knew that this was a responsibility he had to shoulder for the sake of the country and its people. Before Xiao Yichen departed, she carefully prepared his luggage and instructed him, "Yichen, this diplomatic trip is full of uncertainties, so you must be careful. When negotiating with neighboring countries, you must firmly safeguard national interests while trying your best to avoid escalating conflicts. I will pray for you in the General's Mansion and await your safe return."
Xiao Yichen held Lin Wan'er's hand tightly and said, "Wan'er, don't worry. I will do my best to live up to His Majesty's trust and your expectations."
Led by Su Jin and escorted by Xiao Yichen, the diplomatic delegation traveled in a grand procession to the neighboring country. Along the way, they traversed mountains and rivers, braving wind and rain, and finally arrived at the capital of the neighboring country.
However, the neighboring country treated the delegation with great arrogance. After submitting his credentials, Su Jin waited for several days before being arranged to meet the neighboring country's ruler. In the court, the neighboring ruler dismissed Su Jin's suggestion to peacefully resolve the dispute, instead proposing a series of harsh conditions, demanding that his country cede large tracts of border land and pay huge annual tributes before he would restore normal trade and friendly relations between the two countries.
Su Jin argued earnestly and earnestly to the neighboring king the importance of peaceful coexistence between the two countries and the harm caused by war: "Your Majesty, our two countries are neighbors, like lips and teeth. If we go to war because of a temporary dispute over interests, we will surely suffer heavy losses. Our dynasty has always adhered to the diplomatic ideals of peace and friendship. We hope that Your Majesty can think twice before acting, abandon these unreasonable demands, and jointly seek a mutually beneficial solution."
But the neighboring king was determined and remained unmoved, even threatening to immediately march south and start a war if these conditions were not met.
The diplomatic mission was in trouble. Su Jin knew that the mission was unlikely to be accomplished. In order to prevent the mission members from being persecuted, he made a decisive decision to lead the mission back to his country.
Upon learning of the diplomatic mission's ordeal in the neighboring country, Xiao Yichen realized that war was inevitable. He immediately returned to the capital, reported the situation to the emperor, and requested permission to organize an army, strengthen border defenses, and prepare to repel the neighboring country's invasion.
The Emperor approved Xiao Yichen's request, appointing him commander-in-chief to lead the army to the border. Xiao Yichen knew that the outcome of this war was crucial to the safety of the nation and the well-being of the people, and he dared not slacken his efforts. In the border region, he personally surveyed the terrain, formulated battle plans, organized rigorous training for the soldiers, and actively prepared provisions and weapons to ensure the army's logistical support during the war.
Lin Wan'er was not idle in the general's mansion. She organized the women and people in the mansion to sew clothes and prepare dry food for the soldiers at the front line, doing her part to support the war.
After a period of preparation, the neighboring country's army finally launched a large-scale invasion. They surged towards the border like a tidal wave, their advance overwhelming. Xiao Yichen commanded his own army to fight bravely. On the battlefield, he led from the front, charging into battle. Inspired by him, his soldiers were all courageous and fearless, engaging in a desperate struggle with the enemy.
In the early stages of the war, the two sides were locked in a stalemate. The enemy, with its numerical superiority, launched a series of fierce attacks; while the Chinese army, relying on its strong fortifications and tenacious fighting spirit, repelled the enemy's attacks time and again.
At a critical moment in the war, Xiao Yichen calmly analyzed the battlefield situation and discovered that the enemy's rear supply lines were relatively weak. He decisively dispatched an elite force to bypass the enemy's rear and cut off their supply lines. The enemy army was immediately thrown into chaos, and their morale plummeted.
Seizing this opportunity, Xiao Yichen led his main force in a full-scale counterattack. The soldiers charged towards the enemy like tigers descending a mountain, their battle cries shaking the heavens and earth. After a fierce battle, the Chinese army finally achieved victory, successfully repelling the invasion from their neighboring country.
The victory in this war allowed the country to regain the upper hand in diplomacy. The emperor dispatched envoys to neighboring countries, once again proposing a peaceful resolution to the dispute. Having experienced defeat in the war, the neighboring countries recognized their own mistakes and readily accepted the peace proposal.
The two countries re-signed the peace treaty, restoring normal trade and friendly relations. The border region once again returned to its former prosperity and tranquility, and the people lived a peaceful and happy life.
Xiao Yichen returned in triumph, receiving commendation from the Emperor and a warm welcome from the people. He knew that the resolution of this diplomatic crisis was inseparable from the support of the court, the valiant fighting of the soldiers, and Lin Wan'er's silent dedication behind the scenes. His love with Lin Wan'er also became more unbreakable through these trials, and they would continue to join hands to protect the General's Mansion and contribute their strength to the prosperity and stability of the country.
As time flows on, like a long river that never stops flowing, the General's Mansion, under the careful management of Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er, has become a pillar of the country, and the family's glory is at its zenith. Their story is passed down from generation to generation, becoming an immortal legend.
Under the careful nurturing of his parents, Xiao Nianchen grew into an outstanding young man. He was not only highly skilled in martial arts and proficient in various weapons and military strategies, but also exceptionally talented in literature. He could compose poems and songs with ease, and his calligraphy and painting were quite elegant. He also had unique insights into the study of governance.
On this bright and sunny day, the General's Mansion was decorated with lanterns and streamers, filled with a joyous atmosphere. Xiao Nianchen was about to marry Su Yao, the daughter of the Prime Minister's family. This marriage would undoubtedly further solidify the alliance between the General's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion, laying a more solid foundation for the future of their families.
Looking at Xiao Nianchen in his wedding attire, Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er were filled with joy and emotion. Xiao Yichen patted Xiao Nianchen on the shoulder and said, "Nianchen, today you are getting married and starting your own family. As your father, I believe you will be able to shoulder the responsibilities of the family, support each other with Yao'er, and create a bright future together."
Xiao Nianchen bowed respectfully and said, "Father, Mother, I will do my best to live up to the family's expectations. I will also work hand in hand with Yao'er to protect the family's honor, just like you and Father."
Lin Wan'er gently straightened Xiao Nianchen's clothes, tears welling in her eyes, and said with a smile, "Nianchen, you have been sensible and well-behaved since childhood, and now you have grown into a young adult. Yao'er is gentle, kind, and exceptionally intelligent. You two will surely be able to support each other through thick and thin."
The wedding was grand and solemn, with dignitaries, celebrities, and scholars from the capital flocking to offer their congratulations. The General's Mansion was packed with guests, filled with laughter and joy. Amidst everyone's blessings, Xiao Nianchen and Su Yao completed their wedding ceremony, becoming husband and wife. Their eyes met, filled with anticipation and love for the future.
However, at this joyous moment, alarms sounded from the distant borderlands. A mysterious force was stirring in the border regions, committing arson, murder, looting, and all sorts of atrocities, plunging the people into misery. The court was shocked, and the emperor immediately summoned his ministers to discuss countermeasures.
Xiao Yichen stepped forward without hesitation and said, "Your Majesty, I am willing to go on another expedition to quell the unrest on the border. Although I am old, I still have the will to serve my country and will spare no effort to defeat the enemy."
The Emperor looked at Xiao Yichen, his heart filled with admiration and emotion: "General Xiao, I know your loyalty to the court. However, you are getting old, and I am quite worried about your upcoming campaign."
Xiao Yichen replied firmly, "Your Majesty, I am still in good health, and the affairs of the border are of utmost urgency. I will not be at ease if I do not go to war."
Lin Wan'er said softly from the side, "Your Majesty, I am willing to go to the frontier with my husband. Although I am a woman, I am somewhat skilled in medicine and strategy, and I can assist my husband in the army and take care of the soldiers."
Seeing Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er's resolute stance, the Emperor had no choice but to agree. Xiao Nianchen wanted to go on the expedition together, but Xiao Yichen dissuaded him: "Nianchen, you are newly married, and the General's Mansion and the Prime Minister's Mansion need you to stay here. You must protect your family well, and maintaining stability in the rear is also of paramount importance."
Although Xiao Nianchen was unwilling, he understood his father's good intentions and had no choice but to nod in agreement.
Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er led their army, traveling day and night towards the frontier. Along the way, Lin Wan'er tirelessly treated the soldiers' wounded and sick, boosting their morale. Her gentleness and strength earned the soldiers' respect and love.
Upon arriving at the border, Xiao Yichen immediately launched an investigation and discovered that this mysterious force was actually a remnant of the Shadow Society, which had been scattered many years ago. They had been lying low in the shadows for years, and now they had made a comeback, colluding with some foreign forces in an attempt to overthrow the imperial court and seize the world.
Xiao Yichen was well aware of the difficulty and danger of this battle, but he was fearless. Drawing on his extensive combat experience, he devised a detailed battle plan. Lin Wan'er, meanwhile, organized logistical support from the rear, ensuring ample supplies and complete weaponry.
The battle commenced, with the enemy advancing aggressively, employing various treacherous tactics in an attempt to break through the imperial army's defenses. Xiao Yichen commanded with composure, and his soldiers fought bravely, resulting in a fierce battle.
In a crucial battle, the enemy laid an ambush, surrounding Xiao Yichen's army in a valley. The situation was extremely critical, but Xiao Yichen remained calm and composed. He rallied his soldiers, saying, "We are soldiers of the imperial court, fighting to protect our country and its people. Even if we die today, we will make the enemy pay a heavy price!"
Inspired by Xiao Yichen, the soldiers fought like ten men each, engaging in a desperate battle against the enemy. Lin Wan'er, upon learning of Xiao Yichen's predicament, was frantic with worry. Disregarding the danger, she led an elite force in a surprise attack from the enemy's rear, successfully breaking through their encirclement.
After months of arduous fighting, Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er finally defeated the combined forces of the Shadow Society remnants and foreign powers. Peace was restored to the border, and the people cheered with joy and gratitude.
Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er returned in triumph, their heroic deeds spreading throughout the country. The Emperor personally went out of the city to welcome them, praising them highly and bestowing upon them countless treasures and honors.
Upon returning to the General's Mansion, Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er decided to step back from the limelight, entrusting family affairs to Xiao Nianchen and Su Yao. They lived a peaceful and happy life in the mansion, often teaching the younger generation about interpersonal relationships and the importance of family tradition.
Thanks to the efforts of Xiao Nianchen and Su Yao, the General's Mansion continued to prosper. Upholding the family's fine traditions, they actively participated in national affairs, contributing their strength to the country's development and prosperity.
Years later, Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er passed away one after another, their departure causing immense grief to the entire nation. But their legendary story remains forever etched in people's hearts, becoming a source of inspiration for future generations.
The descendants of the General's Mansion have always kept in mind the teachings and achievements of their ancestors, shining brightly in different fields and continuing to write the glorious chapters of the General's Mansion. Their family, like a brilliant star, shines eternally in the long river of history, witnessing the changes of time and the development of the era. The love and legend of Xiao Yichen and Lin Wan'er has also become a timeless tale, forever passed down in every corner of the world.
