Yang Zheng listened attentively to the footsteps outside the hall, and he didn't realize what the book in his hand was, and when the footsteps were near, he looked down at the book, only glanced at it, and was immediately dumbfounded, if it was a book, it was better to say that it was a record of Zhu Yuanzhang's compassion for the old man in the Hongwu Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang maintained a simple peasant morality and showed special respect to the elderly in the world. He promulgated the "Edict on the Preservation of Pensions", stipulating that "there is a division to carefully examine the elderly...... Eighty or ninety years old, the neighbors are called good, prepare their years, do real, and smell the facts. Those who are poor and have no property, and are over 80 years old, are given five buckets of rice, five catties of meat, and three buckets of wine per month; those who are over 90 years old are given one horse of silk and ten catties of silk; those whose fields are only sufficient for self-support are given wine, meat, wadding, and silk. ”

In the 20th year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid that the relevant departments would not implement it effectively, so he told the Ministry of Rites to reiterate this policy again in the name of the emperor.

In order to allow the home-based elderly to be served, in the sixth year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang stipulated: "Those who are over 70 years old are allowed to order a son to serve and be exempted from servitude." That is, in order to better allow the elderly over seventy years old to live in peace, the state allows one of the sons of the old man to be exempted from military service.

For those who honor the elderly, the imperial court not only gives spiritual praise, but also gives material rewards, rewards for clothing, and bonuses. Moreover, these filial sons and daughters can enjoy special treatment when they are old, and when they reach the age of 60, they can enjoy the welfare benefits that ordinary old people can only enjoy when they are 80 years old.

If the model of filial piety is unfortunate enough to become an orphan, then they can enjoy the same treatment at home as in the nursing home, and the local nursing home will send money and food to their home according to the standard every month, and after death, the government will also give them three taels of silver as funeral expenses. These policies are similar to those of nursing homes in previous lives.

Yang Zheng looked secretly a little strange, in the TV series in his previous life, although Zhu Yuanzhang was very good to the people, he killed too many people, and always felt that he was a wicked person who killed people like hemp, but if you look closely at the Hongwu Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, the life of the people is still better than that of all dynasties, it can be seen that there are many untruths in the previous life, as contained in the scroll in his hand, under the requirements and drive of the imperial court, an atmosphere of respecting the elderly and providing for the elderly has been formed in various places, and the requirements for supporting the elderly have also penetrated into the family laws and regulations of various places. Named by Zhu Yuanzhang as "the first in the south of the Yangtze River", Pujiang Zheng's "Zheng Norms" is a masterpiece of traditional Chinese family law and family rules, which stipulates that every time the parents lead the people to visit the ancestral hall, they must send people to beat the drum, and at the same time, the children of the clan say loudly: "Listen! Listen! Whoever is a son will be filial to his relatives." "As a reprimand to the whole people. The clan rules stipulate: "Men and women who are 60 years old should be given good food." The old management is dedicated to the maintenance of the appropriate. Violators will be punished. "The women will give it to the Lord, once in ten days, and those who will be exempt until sixty." The so-called "old steward" is the person in charge of weddings, funerals, and food in the family. In other words, people over the age of 60 should be cared for, the food should be more sophisticated, and the elderly women should be exempted from kitchen work. It shows that when Zhu Yuanzhang erected a butcher's knife against the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, he was very good to the people.

was watching with relish, but he heard the footsteps not stopping in front of the door, and went straight into the study, which made him look at Chen Wu with some surprise, the meaning was obvious, who was the person who came, and why the guards in front of the door could not stop him.

Chen Wu looked embarrassed, and before the footsteps entered the study, he hurriedly stepped forward and whispered, "I'm afraid the prince and concubine are here?"

"The crown princess?" Yang Zheng was taken aback, he also knew a little about this harem in the past few days, this prince concubine was the daughter of Sun Zhong, the head of Yongcheng County. When he was young, because of his handsome appearance, he was favored by Mrs. Peng Chengbo, the mother of the Chengxiao Empress Zhang, and often entered the palace to say that Sun Zhong had a good daughter, so she was elected to the palace. Get along with Xuanzong day and night, and the relationship is very deep. Later, when Zhu Zhanji reached the age of marriage, Hu Shi, a native of Jining, was elected as the imperial concubine, and Sun was selected as a concubine. But Zhu Zhanji gets along with her childhood sweetheart day and night, has a deep relationship, and loves her very much.

Although this is the case, this Sun family is extremely smart, and knows that there are many rules in this palace, and the aphorism that the harem cannot interfere in politics is mentioned by the minister of civil and military affairs from time to time, so he rarely takes the initiative to come to Zhu Zhanji on weekdays.

I didn't expect to come today, Yang Zheng suddenly panicked, just said that the person next to the pillow came so soon, if the crown princess Hu didn't know whether her identity was true or false, then the princess concubine who was about to come in must know, and she couldn't help but panic.

"What should I do?" Yang Zheng was anxious.

Chen Wu is also secretly anxious, although this princess concubine is a female generation, she can be quite anxious, she became pregnant less than a year after entering the East Palace, gave birth to a daughter, and now wants to give birth to a dragon species, the princess has a high status, but her body is not angry, she has been sick, and now after giving birth to two daughters, she has never moved, and Zhu Zhanji does not like the Hu family, and she goes to the palace a lot less, so that she has not given birth to a dragon seed until now, and her status in the palace is not as good as this princess and concubine.

Since ancient times, this harem is a place to compete for favor, in order to get favor, you come and go, all kinds of means emerge in an endless stream, at the expense of scheming, to the death of the opponent. The battlefield of this woman's pile is no less than the fight on the battlefield of men, all kinds of means, conspiracies are estimated, and if all the bloodless moves of killing people are exposed, I don't know how many men will be embarrassed.

But Zhu Zhanji's harem does not have so much miasma, this is not that Zhu Zhanji has managed well, but the credit of this prince concubine, the two entered the East Palace one after the other, it is said that the princess has a high status, and she is pleased with the current queen Zhang, and the status is extremely consolidated, but the current prince is extremely unhappy with her, a few years after marriage, only two daughters were born, and the stomach has not moved, not only Queen Zhang is anxious, but the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty are also anxious, and over time, the princess is pushed to the cusp, Zhu Zhanji also moved the idea of abolishing the princess, at this time everyone will think that such a good opportunity, the Sun family will take the opportunity to consolidate its position, but the result is that the Sun family not only did not take the opportunity to consolidate its position, but also persuaded Zhu Zhanji to go to the princess's bedroom, so as to give birth to the dragon seed early, and improperly won the praise of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ministers.

At this time, the footsteps stopped, followed by a soft voice: "Concubine to meet His Royal Highness-?" The voice was soft, just like the spring rain in the south of the Yangtze River, moistening people's hearts, Yang Zheng sighed secretly: "This voice is so sweet, no wonder Zhu Zhanji is obsessed! This woman will also use her own capital?"

Yang Zheng glanced at Chen Wu and said in a low voice, "What should I do?"

Chen Wu thought for a while and said, "Now that it's over, I have to let her in!"

"Let her in, won't I show my bottom?" Yang Zheng was shocked.

Chen Wu said: "You just need to keep your head clear tonight, and it will be enough to deal with her!"

"Remember, you must stay sober!" Chen Wu said with a solemn face.

Yang Zheng listened to his tone, and saw his expression, he was a little curious, and said in his heart: "What kind of woman should this be, let a eunuch admonish in such a solemn tone!"

The two of them asked each other, and Yang Zheng restored Zhu Zhanji's usual majesty, and said coldly: "Come in?"

The voice outside the door, like the spring rain in the south of the Yangtze River, slowly sounded: "Concubine thank Your Highness!" As soon as the words fell, the door curtain was lifted, Yang Zheng only felt that his eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, as if the qiē in front of him was an illusion for a while, his eyes fell on the woman, and he was reluctant to leave.

To say that he has seen a lot of beauties, whether it is the eldest lady, Xiang'er, or Li Yan'er, Shen Yanqiu, and Xiaoyue are all first-class beauties in this era, and it is said that ordinary women have not aroused much interest in his eyes.

But the woman in front of him made him can't help but look at it a few more times.

The woman in front of her was wearing a cross-collared skirt, and the lower one or two inches of the skirt was decorated with a lace as a presser. The skirt was originally six, which followed the ancient ritual, that is, the so-called "skirt dragged six pieces of Xiangjiang water" fluttered out, the action was as soft as water, so that everyone was not enough to step forward and reach out to help it.

Sun Shi lifted his skirt and smiled at Yang Zheng, who was a little stupid, without moving, and just smiled, but Yang Zheng's heart was pounding, and the faint smile seemed to be a picture scroll with Liu Yong's poems, which made people's eyes can't help but light up.

"Where are you going to wake up tonight?" Yang Zheng couldn't help but want to recite the poem at this moment.

The woman walked straight over, and a pair of autumn-like eyes first glanced at Yang Zheng charmingly, and then squatted slightly and smiled at Yang Zhengyan: "The concubine has seen His Highness, may His Highness be a thousand years old, a thousand years old, a thousand years old?"

Just now, Yang Zheng still has the feeling of spring rain in the south of the Yangtze River, at this time, looking at her bright teeth and bright eyes, and then listening to this sound is like a clear spring gushing out of Qixia Mountain, the jingle bell is extremely moving, the dark eyes, white teeth, dexterous Qiong nose, at the moment of showing a smile, it is like a spring breeze blowing the dark clouds, revealing a dazzling brilliance, making people dare not look directly!

"Such a person, is it any wonder that Zhu Zhanji is so infatuated with her?" Yang Zheng secretly exclaimed in his heart.
