Long live the Emperor! ”

"Hooray!"

Luo Cheng was dressed in a dark dragon robe, riding a tall Western Regions sweat and blood horse, with a golden crown on his head and a jade sword around his waist. On both sides of the road, behind the standing forbidden army, kneeling countless people.

Listening to the sound of the mountain calling one after another, Luo Cheng couldn't help but feel a little flushed.

At the moment, he felt as if he were the superstar.

No, no matter how powerful the pop king is, he can't compare to the emperor's popularity at this moment.

"Flat!"

Luo Cheng spoke out again and again.

Wei Zheng followed behind the emperor and said excitedly, "Sage, this is the will of the people, the heart of the people, the heart of the people. Wei Laodao seemed to be more excited than the emperor, he looked at this scene, and knew how sincere the mountain cries of the people of these Yanshi were. It's not a ceremony, it's not a scene, it's a real heartfelt admiration.

This is the emperor's sincere gratitude for letting the Yanshi people end the turmoil and restore tranquility, allowing the Yanshi people to re-divide the land and grant land, reduce taxes and taxes, and let the people survive the year of famine.

The holy chariot passed through twenty miles of Yanshi people to greet Changkuo, and finally entered the camp prepared by the Inner Servant Province on the outskirts of Yanshi City.

The holy car did not enter the county seat of Yanshi.

The camp is a temporary camp prepared in advance by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and it is very neatly planned.

When the chariots and horses entered the camp, they began to set up camp and set up tents, each performing his own duties.

Luo Cheng changed his clothes and washed his face, but he didn't rest immediately, but called Wei Zheng and Fang Xuanling Du Ruhui and other Zaifu, and then called the prince, only brought Yulin Cavalry to escort him, and began to walk into the countryside and fields of Yanshi, personally inspecting the situation in Yanshi Township.

"Before this Yanshi County, Ma Zhou was the magistrate of the county, and Li Gang was the county leader, and the disaster relief and prevention department took good measures, and now the new team in this county seems to have a good ability to do things."

Luo Cheng saw that the country roads were well repaired, the fields were longitudinal and horizontal, and the ditches had been cleaned. The emperor even walked down the field to inspect the crops planted in the field.

The radish seedlings planted in one field have grown tender green radish tassels, and the field on the other side is planted with rapeseed.

"This field is very deep, the soil is very broken, and it has been watered, and this ridge is also good, and the farmer is a good hand, and he is very diligent, you see, there is no grass at all, and the ground has been watered."

Wei Zheng is not at all surprised that the emperor knows how to farm, after all, in the Imperial North Garden, where flowers and grass were originally planted, the emperor also personally got a few fields, plowing the fields and sowing and harvesting, the emperor will personally participate, and even often bring the crown prince.

"It's all good land, it's easy to irrigate, and it's flat and fertile."

The following Yulin rode very carefully on the ridge, no one dared to step on the ridge of the field casually, and the mount only dared to stay on the road and let other companions lead him.

"This road and ditch can be seen, newly repaired, and even this field seems to have just been completely removed from the grass." Luo Cheng said.

Wei Zheng smiled.

"The holy car has passed, and Yanshi County will definitely not dare to slack off."

Back on the road, Luo Cheng continued to walk towards the countryside and came to a village.

The villagers who had gone to greet the holy car before did not expect the emperor to come, and they were all excited to go out of the village and bow down.

"Hurry up, get up, flat."

Luo Cheng stretched out his hand to summon the village chief and militia captain of the village, as well as the principal of the village's primary school, and asked them to accompany him. It is a large village, about 200 households, and the village is built on a mound.

The emperor listened to the village chief's incoherent explanation of the history of the village with some excitement, and looked at the village carefully.

The village road is newly repaired and very flat.

The ditches in the village have also been dug and are very clean.

Even the houses of the villagers have been repaired, and there is no such messy village appearance, nor can you see the sewage ditches where sewage flows sideways, let alone cow feces and pig manure all over the ground and flies flying around.

"Distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors!"

"It's better to drown a girl, a baby, a pig and a dog!"

"Work hard to get rich, be diligent and thrifty!"

Luo Cheng even found the walls of the houses in the village, and even painted a lot of slogans with white ash.

"Is this what the county is asking for?"

The principal of the primary school in the village, a very thin old man dressed in a Confucian robe, stepped forward and responded, "These are some persuasions written by the small people according to the requirements of the county. ”

The persuasion of the people is to persuade the people to be industrious, kind, thrifty, and law-abiding, and to exhort some villagers to have bad habits, such as drowning in female babies and abandoning infants, and even gambling.

"Was there a bad habit of drowning babies in the village before?" Luo Cheng asked.

The principal nodded and said that in the past, everyone had a hard time, and if there were too many girls, they would abandon or drown if they couldn't afford to raise them. There is even a baby girl tower in the village.

When Luo Cheng heard about it, he asked the principal to lead the way.

The baby girl tower is in the mountain behind the village, it is said to be a tower, in fact, it is quite a simple pile of rocks about a zhang high, there are a few holes left in it, the tower shape, do seven layers.

The headmaster couldn't tell when the baby girl tower was built, only that it had been passed down from generation to generation. If there is a drowned baby girl in the village, they will be sent here and thrown into the stone tower, and no one knows how many bones of the drowned baby girl are in the tower.

Luo Cheng felt very heavy when he heard this, he knew that the bad habit of drowning babies was indeed very common, and the people had no contraceptive knowledge, and they got married early, so they kept giving birth. But it is not easy to raise a poor family, not to mention that many people regard girls as money companions, after all, they will eventually marry other families, and even have to prepare a dowry for their daughters.

As a result, many people already have several children at home, and the baby girl will often drown or abandon the baby girl directly.

If it's a gift, it's a very merciful thing.

This kind of bad habit is actually still there when Luo Cheng was a child in later generations, let alone now.

"I hope there will be no more drowning babies in the future." Luo Cheng bowed to the tower, "Wei Lao Dao, smash this tower, then collect the bones inside, and then build a baby girl's tomb here." ”

Wei Zheng nodded, "Your Majesty doesn't have to grieve, since Your Majesty ascended the throne, he has issued several edicts prohibiting drowning and abandoning infants, and has also established orphanages and nursing halls in various parts of the world to adopt abandoned babies from the people, and Your Majesty has done a good enough." ”

"After all, it's still not enough, if the people live well, they can have food, clothing, and food and clothing without worry, who will abandon their own flesh and blood."

Leaving the village, Luo Cheng's mood was a little heavy.

In fact, he also understands that no matter how much the court formulates laws, if the people can't support them, they will still drown and abandon babies, especially more female babies are abandoned and drowned. In a certain respect, a normal couple can have seven, eight or even ten children, and if they all have to be raised as adults, it is indeed extremely difficult, but the people do not have much knowledge of contraception, and they give birth to one after another.

"Yanshi County Commander is quite diligent, but some like to do surface engineering, for me to pass by, some money is spent unjustly money, I think he pulls out money to build roads for the people, repair dilapidated houses These are good things, but it can't be done because I pass by, it should be done as a job."

"After all, it's just a county order, and it's already good to do this." Wei Zheng spoke for this county commander.

"I know, so I didn't say I was going to punish him, but I had to explain it to him."

Back to camp.

Luo Cheng went to take a shower first, changed his clothes and came out, and Feng Lishi reported good news.

"Li Shimin, the Cheng of Nantang County, with the help of the Great Qin Yishang, the capital of Linyi, raided and took the Lion City and captured Fan Fanzhi, the king of Linyi. It is reported that there are more than 100,000 catties of gold statues in the temple of Linyi Wanggong in the Lion City, and the gold, silver and money income of the entire Linyi City is as high as 30 or 40 million yuan! ”

After Luo Cheng heard this, he was a little surprised.

"Li Shimin went to Linyi Kingdom, broke the capital of Linyi Kingdom, captured the King of Linyi alive, and got more than 100,000 catties of gold?"

"That's true, the Imperial City Division and Jinyi Wei have both confirmed that Lingnan Li Jing has ordered the establishment of Linyi County in Lion City, with Li Shimin as the commander of Linyi County and Xianglin County."

"You're really capable." The emperor sighed softly, "Since Li Jing has ordered Linyi to set up a county, then the imperial court will approve it, as for Li Shimin, since he has such a ability, he can break the enemy country and capture the thief king by himself, and win more than 100,000 catties of gold for the imperial court, and it is too thin to give only one county order, so give Li Shimin the post of Linyi County Cheng and give him the title of the founding barony of Xianglin County!" ”

Feng Lishi reminded the emperor in a low voice.

"Sage, Li Shimin is a native of Lingnan, although he was rewarded by the sage as the Cheng of Nantang County, but he went to Linyi to attack the city and fight, and did not ask for instructions to report to the imperial court, which is a big problem. If you really want to investigate it, even if it is a love for him regardless of the merit and reward, if you really want to investigate it, you can be sentenced to a crime of rebellion. ”

"Actually, it's not so serious, I know Li Shimin's actions well, and I know very well that he, the Cheng of Nantang County, has never really taken office, he has been running a fleet for the Sunset King, and has been a pirate along the coast of Linyi Funan with a robbery permit."

"Why is Your Majesty so conniving at Li Shimin, this person is unruly and very young, and he is afraid that he will ······· in the future"

"Your reminder I understand, but Li Shimin has always refused to admit defeat to me, and it's nothing, his tone is actually quite good, let him go up in the South China Sea, no matter how powerful he is, but he is nothing without Daqin, don't look at him if he can take down the capital of Linyi, but he is also the identity of Daqin. If I want to move him, as long as he says a word, he will not say that he is in the Lion City, even in the Persian Gulf, and I can capture him at any time. ”

"Let him go and break through, anyway, if he is famous, it is also for Daqin, and in the end it will benefit the imperial court, for example, this time, Li Shimin laid down the Lion City, and in the end, the gold and land are still owned by the imperial court?"

Feng Lishi chuckled and said, "The saint is broad-minded and tolerant, and he can change an emperor at will, Li Shimin is only afraid of dying dozens of times." ”
