she  sits  in  her  office—  at  his  desk  with  this  child  eating  strawberries  at  the  table.    the  calligraphy  brush  is  dipped  into  ink—   writing  in correspondence  to  general  tai  hua.   they  both  watch  over  the  east;    usually  it  is  princess  xiao  jing   who  handles  the  civil  cases,   while  matters  needing  the  prince's  greatsword  are  delegated  to  the  general.    "  ..  guzi⸒  will  you  stop  eating  and  come  here?

"   in  order  for  you  to  stay  in  heaven  with  me,    without  breaking  the  rules—  you'd  have  to  become  one  of  my  junior  officials.   would  that  be  alright  with  you?   "
