Chapter 200, Like-minded

This night, Ye Luxian stayed in Qinning Palace.

"Your Majesty, drink a cup of hot tea to warm up!" Yan'er poured a cup of tea for Yeluxian and handed it to him gently.

Ye Luxian slowly took the tea handed over by Yan'er, took a sip gently, and then looked up at Yan'er: "Queen, you are pregnant, let's rest early!" ”

"The concubines have always slept late, and they are not in a hurry at this time. The emperor hasn't come to see the concubine for some days, and the concubine wants to talk to the emperor more! Yan'er said with a smile.

"Recently, the state has been busy, and I have neglected you and Longxu, which is my fault! I promise to come and see you and Takashi every day in the future! Yeluxian looked at Yan'er dotingly and said.

"That's not necessary, Your Majesty, you are busy with state affairs, and there are other sisters in the harem, if I monopolize the favor, what about the other sisters in the harem? Therefore, the concubines still hope that the emperor will be wet with rain and dew, so that everyone can get along with Hemeimei peacefully! Yan'er declined.

Ye Luxian was very satisfied with Yan'er's words, he used to just think that Yan'er was born beautiful, but after getting along for so long, he didn't expect Yan'er's heart to be even more beautiful. Don't fight, don't grab, the wind is light.

"Empress, you are really getting more and more like the master of the middle palace! What a relief for me! Ye Luxian smiled.

Being praised by Ye Luxian like this, Yan'er was a little embarrassed, so she smiled: "Your Majesty, you are making fun of me again, the concubine has been in the palace for so long, and she has never eaten pork, haven't you seen a pig run?" ”

Ye Luxian was stunned by Yan'er's words, among the women he had ever seen, there had never been a woman who said such rude things to him. But even so, he didn't think there was anything bad, he found it very interesting. Scarcity is precious, Yeluxian has seen too many women who only promise to be centered on him, but there are really few women who really have their own thoughts and opinions. Therefore, at this time, there was still some joy in his heart.

"Seriously, I really have something to discuss with you." Yelu Xian said matter-of-factly.

Yan'er sat upright, and then asked slowly: "What is the emperor's matter, just say it." The concubines listened to you! ”

"The death of your father and daughter-in-law has had a great impact on my court, and I am now like having my arms cut off. Now the old-fashioned aristocracy led by Yelu Xiyin in the court is even more impatient, and once I stabilize the situation, I will not be able to stabilize the situation. Then Yelu Xiyin and others will definitely rebel, and when that time comes, it will not only be me who will suffer, but also the vast number of poor people! Ye Luxian said worriedly.

"In fact, the biggest problem facing the emperor now is not the threat of nobles such as Yelu Xiyin, but the absence of the assistance of a humerus minister like his father. So the emperor was just uneasy. According to the concubines, the emperor's top priority now is to recruit talents. Only when there are more talents can we brainstorm and better govern the government. If the country is governed well, the civil and military officials and the common people will naturally see the emperor's goodness, and the tricks of Yelu Xiyin and other traitorous ministers to provoke them to leave home will naturally be untenable. Yan'er said everything she thought.

And Yan'er's words made Yeluxian feel like an empowering. He never thought that there was such a politically minded woman in his harem. I didn't find it before, it's really a tyrannical thing.

"The queen is really insightful! I have never seen that woman see politics so thoroughly as the queen! Yeluxian gave Yan'er a thumbs up and praised.

In fact, for Yan'er, her words blurted out almost without any consideration. She actually doesn't know what politics is at all and what a court situation is. Just from the age of seven. She was influenced by Xiao Siwen's political concept, so she subconsciously formed a political concept similar to Xiao Siwen's. It's just that she didn't find out before, and she didn't have a chance to find out.

"The concubine is just a deep palace woman, where does she know what politics are, what the concubine just thinks, just say it!" Yan'er said modestly.

"No, you're not a woman in the deep palace, you're a treasure of mine! Marrying you is really a blessing for me! Yeluxian was still overjoyed.

"Alright, Your Majesty. If you praise the concubine like this, the concubine won't say anything! Yan'er muttered.

"Gotta get it, I won't say it, I won't say it. Straight to the point. Queen, who do you think are worthy of reuse in the Manchu Dynasty? "Jeluxian gets back to business.

Yan'er rolled her eyes, and then said to Yeluxian: "The concubine said something that the emperor doesn't mind, our Khitan is inferior to the Great Song Dynasty in the south in terms of economy and culture. Does the emperor know why? ”

"Why?" Yeluxian asked.

"Because the system is different! The Great Song Dynasty was built by the Han people, in addition to its unique geographical conditions. Its long cultural history has also brought great progress to its economic development. The Han people have now entered the feudal era and are mainly agricultural. And our Khitan is still at the end of slavery, mainly nomadic. Ask the emperor, farming and nomadism, who will bring greater economic benefits? Yan'er asked slowly.

Speaking of this, Ye Luxian had completely understood what Yan'er meant. Indeed, he has been familiar with Sinology since he was a child, and he also feels that the ideology of the Han people is much more advanced than that of the Khitan people. It is a pity that most of the Khitan people still rely on the old-fashioned nomadic ideas and do not accept the advanced ideas of the Han people. Therefore, the Khitan economy always failed to develop.

Many times, the Khitan people rely on the sky to eat, the climate is good, there is a lot of grass and trees, the Khitan people can get pasture, cattle and sheep have food to eat, grow fat and strong, and the people's life is better. But once the climate is cold, there is no pasture on the grassland, and there is no food for cattle and sheep, most of the Khitan people will not be hungry. Therefore, often in such years, they can only rely on the southern invasion to obtain food and solve the problem of food and clothing. However, perennial conquests will also tire the army and increase the taxes of the people, and in the long run, it will also bring counter-effects. For example, the death of Emperor Sejong was because many tribal leaders were tired of the long days of war, so they were unwilling to follow Emperor Sejong to the south, so they rebelled and assassinated Emperor Sejong to death on the way.

In fact, Yeluxian also thought in the past that if the Khitan people could emphasize agriculture and culture like the Han people, then the situation of the Khitan might be much better than now. It's just that he didn't expect that Yan'er and his ideas would coincide. The surprise that this brought him was far greater than the relief that came from her empathy. For Ye Luxian, he has never lacked empathetic women, nor women who know how to play piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, nor young and beautiful women. What he lacks is just a woman who can stand on the same level as him spiritually and really understand him in soul. And Yan'er's existence undoubtedly brought a touch of splendor to his original black and white life. (To be continued.) )
