(Thanks to Brother G's reward, there are also a lot of new friends on the subscription list, thank you for your support, I believe that the big family of Wolf Three will become more and more prosperous!) )
The sixth year of the Great Han Xingping AD December 30, 199, Chinese New Year's Eve! At this time, it has been half a year since the death of Emperor Xian, after the ban was opened, the prosperous Beiping City is full of lights, and at the time of dinner, every household is setting off firecrackers, which is the real "firecracker", by burning the bamboo knots to make it make a loud sound of crackling, in order to show the congratulations of the festival, at this time the kind of fireworks and firecrackers of later generations have not yet appeared, and the research of the Taoist priests in the instrument is also in full swing.
In the lobby of Yanwangfu, Liu's mother sat in the middle, Liu Yi and Gan Ning accompanied the next, and Zhao Yun was urged by the two brothers to go back to Jizhou because Ma Yunlu was pregnant on the day after the rally, after all, this is the top priority of the Zhao family, Liu Yi and Gan Ning are inseparable, otherwise they will definitely go to visit, and Ma Chao's departure will definitely make the mood of the younger siblings happy, which is very important for pregnant women, after all, this is the end of the Han Dynasty, and it is always a big hurdle for women to have children!
The rally also has a discussion on medical construction, now with the development of Liu Yi's subordinates, the population is increasing, the survival of newborns has become a very critical point, in the late Han Dynasty, the infant mortality rate is very high, when Zhang Hu was in Yan County, Zhang Hu once made statistics, almost every ten children will have four premature deaths, this is still in the case of Yan County at that time is relatively rich, in many places in the Han Dynasty, this number can reach a terrifying eighty percent, of course, this is inseparable from the perennial war, After Liu Yi took charge of Youzhou, he began to set up medical clinics in various counties, and the state government paid for the training of Lang Chinese medicine practitioners to diagnose diseases for the people, among which the diagnosis and treatment of women and children were completely borne by the state government, and the rest of the adults had to charge corresponding money and materials for diagnosis!
That's it, the mortality rate of newborns is also maintained at about 30%, and the biggest killer is pox! Su Qingcheng in later generations is not proficient in medicine, but he knows that newborns are to be vaccinated, and Liu Yi in this life can only inform Hua Tuo and other doctors of the general situation, so that they can study it, but this road is very long, and doctors are still required to conduct a lot of research and experiments, Liu Yi does not have much to do in addition to strong support, after all, he is not omnipotent, and it is impossible to remember all the information of later generations in his mind, but fortunately, with the gradual influx of the population of the island under Zhang Rong's efforts, Doctors have made some progress in their research.
At present, at least in the soldier class, pregnant women and newborns have begun to receive thoughtful and scientific care, so as to reduce the mortality rate of young children, as for the promotion of the people still need to be gradually promoted, this is the reality of society, there will not be too many changes because of Liu Yi's ideas, in the current situation the implementation of universal medical care is tantamount to a dream, doctors still have a long way to go!
In the lobby of King Yan's Mansion, there are a group of singers dancing, and the side hall has people holding accompaniment of various musical instruments, and those well-trained women of wonderful age perform all kinds of wonderful dances in the beautiful music, which is pleasing to the eye, this is the program specially arranged by King Yan for his family on Chinese New Year's Eve this year, and these women are the people of the island he handed over to *** Jin Jiu plus ** that day, judging from the satisfied looks of everyone present in front of him, Jin Jiu's skills can be described as worthy of the name!
Huaxia has had countless exquisite inheritances in thousands of years of history, covering various fields, but unfortunately many of them have been lost in the long river of history for various reasons, and more are supported by no one in later generations, and it is only a line away from being lost. And Liu Yi not only did it but also did it happily, even though he knew that his strength was meager, when someone did it was better than standing by and watching, in the flashy era, we have lost too many things of national essence, they should have a place!
With such an idea, Liu Yi also attaches great importance to Wenhua art in this life, because of his arrival, Cai Yan's fate has changed, and she is likely to have no Hu Ji eighteen beats without a foreign trip, which Liu Yi does not want to see, so he also bought a lot of music scores about foreign races for his beloved wife, and invited the artists to come to the house to communicate, and under the research of Cai Yan Zhen Mi and Feng Ruoxi and others, he believes that there will be more wonderful music and rhythm to pass on!
The singing and dancing in front of him is also general, the crispness of the chime, the melodiousness of the silk piano with the graceful dancing posture is pleasing to the eye, such a wonderful art should be carried forward, in Liu Yi's heart, a country's strength in addition to the guarantee of force must also have a splendid and rich culture and art, before him, the Qin Emperor Yingzheng's book-burning pit Confucianism destroyed how many inheritances he can do, he can only experience the magic in the white ink fragment and the memories of everyone, and then do his best to restore his original appearance! But he will try his best to avoid the disaster of the Five Chaos in China and the destruction of culture behind him, no matter whether what he does is effective or not, but he must do it!
Tonight in the Yanwang Mansion, in addition to these singers, there are many folk artists who will present their mastery one by one, Liu Yi wants to tell the world with the respect of the King of Yan, these culture and art have an important position, enough to ascend to the hall of elegance! For the husband's arrangement, the women are obviously extremely satisfied, in the two hours of performance, they have seen many wonderful performances, many of which are unheard of, the family of three performance of the top wine jar is to win the most intense applause in the hall, Liu Yi has planned to discuss with everyone after the New Year to set up a special department to manage it, so that it can be more developed.
At midnight, the melodious bell echoed over Beiping City, which was set up in Beiping City when Liu Yi served as the assassin of Youzhou, and now it has become a New Year's custom, as long as it is close to midnight on Chinese New Year's Eve, all Beiping residents will have a quiet moment to listen to the New Year's bell, General Liu said that this bell is to pray for the blessing of the world, the general's words will not be wrong, since then the people's life has been better every year, this bell has a more unique meaning. Nowadays, it is located in the place called the Great Bell Tower, which is the highest point in the city after the Imperial Palace Stargazing Platform, and it is a must-visit place for outsiders to come to the Great Bell Tower in Beiping, and on Chinese New Year's Eve, many residents will gather here to pray for blessings.
Nine times, the bell rang a full nine, after the end of the ninth time, the noisy firecracker body will ring again, nine is the number of extremes, and has a long-term meaning, at this time every corner of Beiping City is full of festive atmosphere, and whenever this time to hear the sound of firecrackers, Liu Yi's heart will spontaneously have a great pride, this is the prosperous scene he created!
"Second brother, you hold Ding'er, and Huan'er Xin'er will come with your father." This custom of setting off firecrackers is also general in the Yanwang Mansion, Liu Yi hugged Liu Yun, Gan Ning held Gan Ding, both of them held a long firecracker, Liu Huan Liu Xin stood beside his father, Zhen Mi, Mi Zhen, Liu Ruyan, Qin Yuyao and others also held their children, Liu Yi spoke, and someone lit the front end of the firecracker, and the crackling sound instantly merged into a torrent in the courtyard of the lobby, Liu Yun covered her ears with both hands and buried her head in her father's chest from time to time, but she couldn't help but always look back a few times, Liu Ren, Liu Qi and Gan Ding's performance is also outstanding, and they deserve to be the tigers of the gate! They can still smile in the sound of firecrackers, and the brothers who watch it are all happy in their hearts.
Many of the descendants of the Liu family gathered around the compound, and they were also looking at the scene in front of them with a smile on their faces, and Liu Yi also set up flowing water seats in the corridors on both sides, and enjoyed with a group of subordinates, the atmosphere of the festival infected everyone at this time, even Dabai was excited to look up to the sky and roar, even if the loud sound of firecrackers could not cover it up, it would only add to the majesty.
"Second brother, you have to work hard to have a few more children in the New Year, otherwise Ding'er will be too lonely, and when Zilong's children are older, let them become brothers, and you and I will pass on the affection from generation to generation." In the noisy sound of firecrackers, Liu Yi said excitedly to Gan Ning on the side.
"Hahahaha, what the eldest brother said is that the younger brother must work hard, Yun'er will come, give the second uncle a hug, and I don't know which kid has this blessing to marry our Yun'er as his wife in the future." Gan Ning hugged Liu Yun from Liu Yi's hand in a burst of laughter, and said loudly.
"Hehe, it will take at least ten years, and it will be necessary for Liu to have ten years of stability in the world, and the four seas will be peaceful, and then you and my brothers and grandchildren will be around their knees, and they should be able to sit and enjoy the joy of family!" Liu Yi smiled and held Gan Ding in his hand, and said very seriously, ten years, this is his goal!
"Gan believes that the eldest brother will be able to do it, and in ten years, the eldest brother will go from Yan County to the land of six states today, and there will be ten years of younger brother who will help the eldest brother to dominate the Han Dynasty." Gan Ning said angrily.
When the sound of firecrackers gradually subsided, Liu Yi led a group of family members to his mother and knelt down: "Yi'er led the whole family to give her mother a hundred years, and your old man's fortune is like Nanshan in the East China Sea!" "Ning Gong wishes the eldest lady a long life and good health!" "Huan'er wishes grandmother to be happy every day" and "......"
"Get up, get up, God should treat the old body seriously, so that my Yi'er can have today, my wife and son are filial, enough to comfort my ancestors and ancestors of the Liu family, my mother only asks my son to go well, Xingba and Xinran have more children and more blessings, and Huan'er, grandma is waiting to hold her grandson." Looking at the people who knelt on the ground in front of her, Liu's mother couldn't close her mouth happily, and hurriedly asked Bi Jin to step forward to support and distribute the red envelopes to everyone one by one, and made an admonition to Liu Yi and Ganning, especially Liu Huan.
Liu Yi and the others naturally responded one by one, and then went to the front of the hall to distribute red envelopes to a group of subordinates, and from time to time said a few holiday wishes, of course, there are also those artists who performed in the Yanwang Mansion, at this time, steaming dumplings were sent to the kitchen, which is the essential food for the people on Chinese New Year's Eve, but now it is different from the past, and when the war is Chinese New Year's Eve, you can't eat such food, but now you can eat it in peacetime, which is a real change.
Liu Yi quickly ate more than a dozen mutton stuffed belly, and drank a big bowl of dumpling soup, surrounded by heat, he couldn't help but step out of the lobby and look up at the sky, today is clear and cloudless, and the moon is hanging high! Gongsun Zhan, Gongsun Du, Lu Bu, Yuan Shu, Yuan Shao, Han Sui, one after another heroes of the late Han Dynasty have withdrawn from the competition for the world, who will be next? Liu Yi told himself very firmly in his heart, that is, Cao Cao and Cao Mengde, who he regarded as his lifelong rival, and the hardships in this battle array were probably better than all the before, that was a big hero, but this world does not need two big heroes to stand side by side, and it is enough for me Liu Yi and Liu Langsheng to have one person!
At this time, including Gan Ning, no one dared to step forward and stand side by side with Liu Yi, under the moonlight like water, Lang Sheng's majestic and promoted figure stood proudly like a mountain, at this moment in the eyes of everyone, King Yan's body appeared extremely tall, and it seemed to be filled with heaven and earth!
