Liu Cong is so big, it's the first time I've heard such remarks. In his cognition, the emperor should sit on the world, and everything is for the royal service.

However, he knew the concept of the family, and the responsibility of the patriarch was to lead the family to develop better. The head of the family who only knows how to ask for it from the clansmen, but does not know how to lead the development of the clansmen, is destined to be driven down.

It turns out that the emperor is also the patriarch, but not only the patriarch of the Liu family, but also the patriarch of the world...... So what Liu Cong said seemed to understand.

The emperor is the patriarch who regards all the people in the world as his own clansmen, and then takes them to develop together. As the patriarch, he has priority to enjoy the benefits of the family, but also to take on greater responsibilities.

"Are you disappointed?" Liu Tao looked at Liu Cong, "The emperor is not as powerful as you imagined......"

"Sort of." Liu Cong nodded, "But my father also said that treating individualism should be like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves!" ”

"Do you know what individualism is?" Liu Tao asked with a smile.

"I just want to be comfortable, and I don't care about my family and people. Such people deserve to be driven down. Liu Cong immediately replied.

"If you understand this, then you are a qualified patriarch." Liu Tao touched his head.

"Then the father, the three provinces and six departments, is it equivalent to the elders of the family?" Liu Cong began to think deeply.

"Yes, the family is so big, and it needs more clansmen to help manage things. For example, in the Ministry of Officials, we always have to see who has made meritorious contributions to the family, who is lazy and does not work, and who is relying on the power in their own hands to bully other clansmen; For example, in the household department, we must always know how much money the family has, and how to spend this money in the future to make the family stronger; For example, in the Criminal Department, we always have to have a family law to regulate the behavior of the clansmen, so that they know what they can and can't do......" Liu Tao explained slowly.

"Therefore, the countries of the Western Regions are outsiders, and we are our own people. Can't we lose our own people in order to take care of other people's emotions? Liu Cong continued to reason.

"After all, they're all your people." Liu Tao smiled, "Not to mention, it's your own money and food that you spend." ”

"But if they surrender, won't they be incorporated into our Han? Isn't that our family? Liu Cong didn't understand.

"But now? Don't consider ourselves our family yet. Estimate more people, consider themselves slaves of our family? Family? Not family anyway. So we're going to have to find a way to let them know? We actually want to treat them as family, and we treat them very well? Willing to help them too? Truly part of the family. Liu Tao explained.

"But Mr. said Huayi's argument, saying that they are all aliens, and they are not of the same mind as us." Liu Cong was puzzled.

"So when they are enemies, we are to be as cruel as winter? Do not have the kindness of a woman. It's like you're a patriarch? If you are weak, then the other families will bully you, and they will not sit down with you and talk slowly. Liu Tao explained.

After a pause, he added, "When we conquer them?" Then we should learn to let them give up their hatred and integrate into our family. Our Chinese civilization? Can it be understood as a family style, that is, it can accommodate anyone who is willing to join our family? Then absorb their excellent civilization for their own use, and at the same time help them get rid of bad habits. ”

"Oh...... The child understood. Liu Cong nodded? In fact, in Liu Tao's opinion? About halfway through? His interest is not so high, and it is good to be able to listen to half of the follow-up.

At this time, it is no longer possible to continue preaching, it is useless to say, it is a pure waste of time, and even the child does not want to listen to your nagging. After many times like this, maybe the child will not want to talk to himself in the future, after all, every time he speaks, he has to talk at length like this, and he will be in trouble to death.

"I'll get here today, it's almost time......" Liu Tao looked at the sky outside, "How about going to eat some pastries and then playing with your younger siblings for an hour?" ”

"Is my father coming?" Liu Cong was suddenly interested.

"Come on, come on!" Liu Tao laughed, even if he didn't have time, he had to squeeze out time. I chose to guide education, so no matter how hard and tired I am, I have to stick to it!

Liu Tao suddenly had the idea of planning birth control, at least planned contraception. After all, if you continue, you'll be tossed endlessly by these little kids. He kind of understands that this kind of education method is probably suitable for families with one or two children.

In ancient times, seeing that I had to have more than a dozen children, and I didn't know how many times there would be in the future, I had to exhaust myself to death!

"Qiong'er is almost about to be a horse......" played with a group of children, but Ren Hongchang said coldly.

Generally speaking, girls in this era, around the age of twelve, can get married when they have a menstrual period. In the final analysis, the probability of early death is too great, and many people die at a young age, such as Wei Zhongdao.

Get married early, have children early, even if you are gone at the age of twenty or thirty, at least there will be the next generation, and there is hope.

At the same time, if the age difference between husband and wife is too large, it will not be easy to get along. But generally speaking, most of the fifteen or sixteen-year-old marriageable boys have already been arranged by their families. The eldest princess of the Han Dynasty, you can't be a concubine for others, right?

Don't talk about Shang Yuma, at least you have to make a marriage agreement first, so that others can't wait to get married, which will be embarrassing.

"yes, it's twelve in the blink of an eye." Liu Tao sighed that out of the old father's emotions, he really didn't plan to let his daughter get married. Forget about the disobedient leather child, Liu Qiong is very filial. Compared with Liu Cong's 100,000 whys, she is obedient, well-behaved and filial......

"Does she have anyone she likes?" Liu Tao asked casually.

"I didn't ask about this, but it was usually decided by the parents. Especially the royal family, most of them are married to courtiers to deepen the feelings of the monarch and ministers. Otherwise, it's a ...... with relatives," Ren Hongchang said here, his body trembling slightly.

As parents, especially the emperor's concubines, what they are most afraid of is that their daughters will be sent out to kiss each other.

"Haha, what are you worried about?" Liu Tao said with a smile, "My big man will not cede land, will not pay compensation, will not be friendly, and will not surrender!" Now, no, and never will! ”

"Your Majesty......" When Ren Hongchang heard this, he was suddenly so excited that he was in a mess, and his eyes were full of admiration.

"Ask first, if she has something she likes, then she can make a marriage agreement first. Don't say twenty, it's better to get married at the age of eighteen. Becoming a biological child too early is not good for your health and is prone to dystocia. Liu Tao gritted his teeth and said.

If anyone dares to let his daughter suffer this kind of crime for the sake of inheritance, he will have to kill the other party alive.

"Hmm......" Ren Hongchang and the others came over like this, so they naturally knew that this was true, so they nodded obediently.
