It turned out that on the first day he came, Li Hui's family went to sea, but fortunately, Li Hui went to sea this time to Si Kang, so Sinbad hurriedly returned to the boat and let people chase Li Hui's ship with all their might.

Just when Sinbad ordered the people below to chase with all their might, those people were still a little unimpressed, because in their opinion, their current ship was a rare clipper in the world, and it was not a little faster than other ships, even if the other party had gone a day earlier, but if they wanted to catch up, they would definitely catch up in two or three days at most, but they didn't expect that they had chased Si Kang all the way with the fastest horsepower and didn't catch up.

But Sinbad knows very well in his heart that he will definitely not be able to catch up with his side, there must be no reason for him to have such a clipper, but the master does not, and the ship that the master is riding must be faster than his own, but as long as he knows that the master is there, it is good, and he is waiting in the open sea of Scone.

And Sinbad didn't know that he was so waiting, but he was frightened by Scone's side, although they agreed to let Feiling become the queen, but there was still some rejection in their hearts, but when the news came that the silver-haired pirate did not leave, but had been wandering around Scone's open sea, they thought that Sinbad was there to wait and see, to see if the dead husband's Feiling would leave Scone and return home, and then he would land again, so that those people no longer dared to have the slightest reluctance in their hearts, and they all wished that Feiling would succeed to the throne quickly, so that the one in the open sea would be completely dead。

Li Hui and Fei Ling were strolling in the garden of the Scone Palace, the mother and daughter were talking quietly, and Yue'er was playing happily in the garden in the company of the two little girls.

Fei Ling looked at the smile in her eyes as she ran in front of her sister who fluttered butterflies, probably because she lived in such an era, and the brothers and sisters around her were also half-siblings, so she didn't reject this little sister who had no blood relationship with her at all, but she couldn't face it as indifferently as before in Li Shuo's heart, but fortunately, she belonged to the kind of person who was more sensible, and the mother concubine was the most innocent victim back then, so it was reasonable that she would choose to take a step, so although Li Shuo didn't like it in his heart, he didn't really embarrass him。

"Mother~~!, he's really good~~!" Fei Ling glanced at Li Shuo, who was commanding his subordinates in the distance, and said a little unwillingly.

In Fei Ling's past impression, the father's feelings for the mother concubine are rare in the world, but after she observed it in just a few days, she had to admit that compared with Li Shuo, the father is really a lot, a lot~! In memory, even if the father is pampering the mother concubine, there are still other women around, and when the father and the mother are together, most of them are the mother concubines accommodating the father, and the father is just the man who enjoys.

But this Li Shuo will not, whether in action or expression, he puts the mother concubine at the highest point, as long as the mother concubine appears in his sight, his eyes have never left the mother concubine, and he knows the mother concubine so deeply, often the mother concubine knows what the mother wants with a look and a movement, and he doesn't even need the mother to say anything, he has done everything silently. It's no wonder that the mother concubine would be willing to marry him, if she was cared for by such a man, that woman would not be tempted~!

And when Fei Ling looked at Li Shuo taking care of his little sister Yue'er, although he didn't say anything, he was also a little envious in his heart, when his father doted on his mother, so he was more caring for his daughter who was under the name of his mother, but he really loved himself in the palm of his hand, but after something happened to his mother, after everyone thought that his mother was no longer there, so since he entered the palace, a large part of his father's preference for himself was due to guilt for his mother. And when Fei Ling knew that Li Shuo was not even willing to let his mother give birth for the sake of his mother's body, and was only willing to guard Yue'er's daughter, she knew in her heart that her father had completely lost this time, but he was not wronged at all.

"Feiling, these people you brought here were carefully selected for you by your mother before, so you just have to rest assured that you can send them, as for Nanshu, you don't have to worry, the distance between the two countries is so far, even if you want to manage it, you can't manage so much. Li Hui squeezed Feiling's hand and said: "My mother is worried about your personal problems, although my mother doesn't think you are old, but this matter still can't be delayed~!"

In her opinion, Fei Ling is only twenty years old, which is the most beautiful age, but in the eyes of the world, she has become a very old girl, if this marriage drags on, wouldn't she have to find a husband who is much younger than herself?

At this time, there will definitely be a generation gap between husband and wife because of age, and the most important thing is that Fei Ling is the oldest, and she has always been a person who does things in all aspects, and then the husband and wife will definitely become Fei Ling who pays more, although the two of them should not care too much about these things, but the one who pays more will definitely be the one who directly works harder for two people.

Li Hui herself has experienced such a change, when she was with Duanmu Shuxuan, although she loved him in her heart, she was the one who paid, and the environment at that time, who knows the hardships and grievances. And now that she has walked out of the previous relationship, after accepting Li Shuo, the relationship between the husband and wife has become the other party who pays more, not that her feelings for Li Shuo are shallow, but compared to paying, she has really become the one who enjoys, and the feelings in this have become completely different, so Li Hui wants her daughter to find the man who is really good to her and willing to pay for her.

In Li Hui's opinion, it is more of a kind of luck, or Li Shuo's persistence, otherwise the two of them would not have come together now, but how many people like Li Shuo are there? And Li Shuo's situation is completely irreproducible~! So when I think of these, Li Hui is full of anxiety about the marriage of her eldest daughter.

However, even if Li Hui is worried about the marriage of the eldest daughter, she also knows that now the eldest daughter has just become the queen, even if she has her own secret support, it is not easy to gain a firm foothold, this marriage event can only be moved backwards, but now even if it is moved backwards, there is a suitable candidate~~!

"You don't have to worry so much~~!Fei Ling is already an adult, she knows what she wants, and she has now become the queen of Scones, there is no way to do many things even if you are in a hurry~~!" Li Shuo gently massaged his daughter-in-law's calves and said, the daughter-in-law has been working hard for Feiling's affairs recently, and even now she is assisting Feiling in charge of state affairs, and at the same time she has to worry about her marriage, which makes her whole person tired for a while, which makes him feel distressed when he looks at it, but he didn't say a word of rebuttal, just helped his daughter-in-law plan these things as much as possible, so that she could lighten her burden a little.

For Li Shuo's words, Li Hui bit her lip slightly and did not respond, in fact, there are some things that no one has ever said, so Li Shuo doesn't know, even if Feiling has just become a queen, but in the early years, she didn't help her brother Duanmujing deal with things behind her back, so even if she encountered some difficulties when she was in charge of the country, it was not a big deal. In fact, the person who has the problem now is not Fei Ling, but herself.

Although so many years have passed, it does not mean that Li Hui will forget the other world, on the contrary, with the passage of time, her heart is more and more nostalgic for that world, and this nostalgia has unconsciously become a kind of paranoia, and this paranoia has completely exploded with Feiling after becoming the queen.

If you take charge of the country in the way of this era, Fei Ling can easily handle it alone, but now with Li Hui behind her, and Fei Ling is an infinite admirer of her mother, so as long as Li Hui says, she trusts and obeys unconditionally, so the entire Si Kang Kingdom started with a mighty census.

However, after getting the results of the demographic statistics, it gave Fei Ling a headache, it was not clear when he didn't investigate, so he didn't think there was anything wrong, he must have been like that in the whole Si Kang Guo before, but after the results of this census came out, Fei Ling looked at the completely unbalanced ratio of men and women, and suddenly felt that this head began to hurt.

To be honest, even Li Hui was shocked when he saw such a result, the ratio of men to women is actually 4/6, which is already a manifestation of imbalance, especially in such a situation where there are many men and girls, the entire national strength will be weakened, not to mention that the remaining 40% of men will have to cut out the old and young.

"I've asked people to ask, the ratio of men and women in the past was not like this, but it has only been formed in the last ten years~~!" Li Shuo put a cup of hot tea on Li Hui's hand, then walked behind her back and massaged her already stiff shoulders and said:" In the past ten years, Scone has been greatly affected by the outside world, in the early years of civil strife and war, many men died, and later because of the sea route, some young adults chose to go to the sea to make a living, so some men have not come back after leaving, and in recent years, because of the forced mining of sulfur mines, there have been many accidents and deaths, not to mention, there are many miners who have suffered from some strange diseases, and many have died of diseases~~！”

"What are we going to do? If we let it go like this, I'm afraid that this place will really become a 'daughter country'!" Li Shuo also felt a headache for such a situation, but he couldn't think of any particularly good way to solve this matter, so he could only say tentatively: "If it doesn't work, let people buy back a batch of slaves from overseas~~~???"

"This treats the symptoms but not the root cause~!" Li Hui shook his head and said, "And there are too many outsiders pouring in at once, which is too much of a hidden danger to the stability of the whole country~~!"

After sorting out his thoughts well, Li Hui said: "Most of Sikang's current situation is caused by some man-made reasons, as long as you pay attention to these aspects, there should be no problem with giving birth to several generations~~!"

"And right now, there are more women than men, and you can take the opportunity to elevate the status of women~~!And you can also make some adjustments to the development of this country through these~!" Li Hui said her own purpose, although the current situation is not conducive to the development of a country, but it is very conducive to the implementation of her own plan.

Sure enough, a few days later, Fei Ling announced in the court that he would open a village school in Sikang across the country, and establish a small school based on the village to teach the people to read and write for free, and there is no threshold, regardless of gender, age, or origin, and it also requires children who have reached the age of eight to go to the village school regardless of gender, and must study for more than five years before they can be considered complete. The announcement of this law has caused an uproar in the court.

And at this time, the benefits of a small country are fully reflected, Feiling, the queen, should be very strong, and the officials in the court are pinched to death, but they only have the right to execute Feiling's orders, and they do not have any right to deny, so although everyone has opposing opinions on this matter, they finally succumbed to Feiling's high pressure.

Of course, the reason why they succumbed so quickly was mainly because Fei Ling told them that she would bear all the expenses for opening the village school, and the imperial court only needed to arrange some suitable people to teach the people to read and write.

At the same time, Fei Ling also opened some weaving or handicraft skills training for women in village schools under the instruction of Li Hui, in order to let domestic women also have the ability to create crafts to support themselves, and those things they make are purchased by special people, and then sold to other countries to create profits by sea.
