The carriage is very large, it can seat ten people, and now there are only Yang Xuan, Mrs. Zhu Shuying, eldest daughter Haitang, eldest son Yang Wen, and second son Yang Wu in the carriage.

Looking at the scene outside the carriage, Queen Zhu Shuying said to her sister-in-law Yang Wu, who had just learned to speak and walk: "Wu'er, don't be greedy for fun when you grow up, learn from your father, get on the horse to govern the army, and get off the horse to govern the people."

Wu'er, you don't know that in the past, although this CD) city was prosperous, it was full of beggars, so we walked for a long time like now, and we didn't encounter any begging at all. ”

Yang Xuan pulled up the curtain and said to the street outside the glass: "Madam, you, you are mistaken. As long as the society is stable, even if the mediocre officials are in charge, it will be like this. ”

Glaring at her husband opposite, Zhu Shuying shook her head and said, "You, you are talking nonsense, women teach husbands and children, I will educate Wu'er not to interrupt and not to lead Wu'er astray."

I said you, although Wen'er is a concubine, but after all, he is your eldest son, you let him play all day long, how can you assist Wu'er in the future?

Wu'er is different from others, Wu'er is your son-in-law, and he will inherit your career in the future, you, do you want Wu'er to become a mediocre person in the future? ”

Yang Xuan's brows furrowed slightly, since he became the queen, this Zhu Shuying has not stopped for a moment, and is bent on restoring the former palace etiquette.

Regardless of whether Yang Wen and Yang Wu are children, it is stipulated that they need to come to greet each day, rain or shine, without delay.

In the harem, he regarded himself as the queen, and put on the past etiquette, and he had to ask the princesses Ma Fengyu and Liu Lian'er to kneel down to him and ask for peace.

Whether it is the East or the West, the distinction between concubines is very strict, in ancient China the implementation of the polyandry concubine system, the wife can shout at the aunt and concubine, and take out the master's style, just like the current wife to the mistress, the slight difference is that the ancient aunt and concubine are legal, and the modern mistress is not legal.

Although there is no such thing as a concubine in the West, the West implements polyandry, just like the kings of England have public and semi-public lovers in addition to the so-called princesses, and some of these so-called lovers are married women and some are unmarried women.

Just like British Prime Minister David Cameron, who promoted the Brexit referendum, is a descendant of the illegitimate son of the British king (another name for the Eastern concubine), his ancestral identity is public, and some have a public title, but slightly different from the children born to the queen are illegitimate children who do not enjoy the public wealth of their children except for a certain amount of wealth.

For example, the French Emperor Napoleon had two illegitimate children before marrying the Austrian princess, and both of these illegitimate sons and their mothers openly had their own titles and enjoyed certain gifts, and could not become the successors of Napoleon's career.

In order to obtain his own heir, Napoleon married an Austrian princess and gave birth to the king of Rome.

Later, Napoleon was imprisoned until death, and everyone only honored the King of Rome under the protection of Austria as the so-called Napoleon II, not Napoleon's illegitimate son.

After the death of Napoleon II, Napoleon's nephew regarded himself as Napoleon III and eventually became the emperor of France, while Napoleon's illegitimate son, although talented and also became France's foreign minister, did not have the right to inherit like Napoleon II (son-in-law) and Napoleon III (nephew), but only had a duke title and related wealth.

It can be said that in ancient China, the system of polyandry and concubinage was practiced, and after the death of the wife, the concubine only became a wife and fully enjoyed all the status of the wife.

Although in ancient China, there were concubines, and although concubines did not have the advantage of concubines in terms of inheritance, if there were no concubines, concubines could be completely replaced.

In contrast, the West practices monogamy in name but in fact is monoandry, in which the lover can enjoy the status of a wife after divorce, but if he does not divorce, the lover and his illegitimate children have no legal rights.

Thinking of this, the corners of Yang Xuan's mouth showed an even more weird smile, shook his head and sighed: "As the saying goes, hair is long and knowledge is short, you think you are educating children, but you don't say anything about it at all, if you say so, it will harm children in the future." ”

Glaring at each other angrily, Zhu Shuying looked quite aggrieved and said, "You, what's wrong with you?" In the past, saints taught children in this way, and in order to educate Wu'er well, I specially found a few well-educated maids.

You, you actually said today that I was wrong, you, you are too picky, you have no conscience. ”

Yang Xuan shook his head and said: "Queen, I know that you are calling the so-called Confucianism, Confucius was a teacher all his life, just like many mountain chiefs (principals) everywhere."

It advocates benevolence, righteousness, propriety, wisdom and faith, teaches people to be good, and teaches and educates people, but it is really insignificant in terms of governance experience. ”

Zhu Shuying was shocked, and suddenly smiled: "Zixiu, you, you won't be calculated by others, and even Confucius has a grudge now." ”

Yang Xuan laughed, re-opened the curtains, pointed to the vendors shouting and selling outside, and said with a smile: "How many people were on the CD) market back then, how many people were in the entire CD) Plain back then, and how many are there now?"

In the past few years, more than 30% of the population has died in the entire CD) plain, and the entire four (Sichuan) is also about 20%. ”

Zhu Shuying's face turned pale in shock, and she glared at the other party and said, "Zixiu, you, what nonsense are you talking about, do you think it's a good thing to die so many people?" ”

Yang Xuan shook his head and sighed: "Of course it's not a good thing, but every time the so-called Great Governance, whether it is the Governance of Wenjing, the Governance of Zhenguan, or the Governance of Hongwu, the so-called Great Governance is not like this.

Let's take the past CD) Plain as an example, in the past, many fields in the huge CD) Plain were all occupied by the Shu Wangfu and were occupied by the military tun, most of the people rented fields, because there were too many people and too few fields, many people did not have any fields to rent, so they became the so-called displaced people.

And those who rent the land for farming, a large part of the land must be handed over to the landlord in a year, so even if they work hard for a year, the income is still very limited. ”

Looking at each other in disbelief, Zhu Shuying's voice was worried: "Zixiu, you, what you said is true?" ”

Yang Xuan said with a smile: "Of course it's true, the sage place politicians must know the people's livelihood suffering, many people only go until the people's livelihood suffers, and they don't know what causes the people's livelihood suffering."

Tell me, is it wrong for me to educate my children like this? From an early age, they need to know the people's livelihood and the main reasons for the people's livelihood. ”

Pulling his son Yang Wu, who broke free from his arms and walked around in the carriage, Zhu Shuying sighed: "The concubine was born in the deep palace all the year round, if it weren't for the misfortune of the mansion and the difficulty of escaping, the concubine has also understood and often penetrated into the people in recent years, I just hope that everyone has a bodhisattva heart, but I really don't know why the people are suffering." ”

Yang Xuan smiled, looked at his second son, although they may not understand anything, but still opened his heart and said: "The ancients had a poem: On the afternoon of hoeing day, sweat drops fall into the soil, who knows that the Chinese food on the plate is hard, and it is about the people's livelihood and suffering.

Zhumen's wine and meat stinky road has frozen bones, talking about unfair social distribution and the widening gap between the rich and the poor.

The so-called chaos will be followed by great governance, which is the result of the cycle of vicious behavior of the population.

Of course, there is a way to change this, and of course the husband has found this way. ”

Although she didn't know much about it, Zhu Shuying leaned forward, looked at her husband, and said in a worried voice: "Zixiu, you, tell me, what is the method, the male protagonist is outside the female protagonist, I teach my husband and children at home all day long, and I have educated Wu'er like this since I was a child."

Wu'er is your sister-in-law, and he will inherit your career in the future. ”

Yang Xuan complained bitterly in his heart, but he still said casually: "In addition to the restrictions made by the past dynasties and dynasties to support the weak, the most important thing is science and technology, scientific and technological invention and innovation.

As you have also seen, in the past, marching and fighting required a large amount of labor to be levied from the localities, and it was shameful to transport grain for thousands of miles, and the consumption on the road was several times that of the consumption before the battle.

But since I introduced the Westerners' four-wheeled carriages, this problem has been solved very well.

Ships and four-wheeled carriages transported grain to the front, and soldiers were transported to the camp by two-wheeled carriages and rickshaws.

The front-line soldiers have food to eat, vegetables to eat, everyone eats well and gets sick less, so of course they are invincible, and it is difficult for them to win whether they are rogue or green battalions.

However, the local government does not levy labor, and the people only need to pay taxes normally, and of course live and work in peace and contentment. ”

When Zhu Shuying heard this, she breathed a sigh of relief, and watched her second son Yang Wu grabbing her husband's robe and playing, and the whole person looked very proud: "Zixiu, this is what you said."

Cheap concubines often hear many ladies and wives complain that the emperor is mean and unkind, and rewards him for his rebellion, and I hope that you will not be Yue Wumu Han Yanxuan, but also praise you.

For example, Mrs. Yan often said that everyone didn't see the wooden cart oxen and horses invented by Zhuge Wuhou back then, but the two-wheeled carriage and rickshaw you invented was better.

There is also Mrs. Liu (Liu Changlin), who has always boasted about the four-wheeled carriage you equipped for Lord Liu, which is not only spacious and comfortable to sit in, but also can run two or three hundred times a day.

It's that Mrs. Qian often says that Qian Bangqi sighs at home, saying that the talent of adults is ten times that of Dolgon, and the adults will definitely succeed in the Northern Expedition.

Mrs. Qian often says that with your talents, you should definitely tear the earth and seal the king in the future, and I don't understand why some people in the court are still desperately slandering you. ”

With a joy in his heart, he patted the other party's little hand, and Yang Xuan said with a smile: "Ying'er, the main reason for her husband's achievements is to implement the new policy, and the result of snatching the taxes that should have been paid in the past from the hands of scoundrels, heroes, officials, and corrupt officials is mainly the application of new technologies."

In order to change the cycle of evil deeds in the past, the most important thing is to devote scholars and doctors to scientific research, and the main thing is to encourage the application of various new technologies. ”

Most of the Chinese are pragmatists, and some people commented that there is no right and wrong, only interests, Zhu Shuying said with a worried face: "Zixiu, this, this kind of invention and creation can not be encountered, and it takes a generation of grandmasters to complete, if you hope for this, is it a bit of a sacrifice to seek the end?" ”

Yang Xuan smiled and pointed to the carriageway below: "What can be met but not sought, what is the end of the sacrifice, the main reason is that we don't understand these things."

Take this carriage as an example, although it can now run 200 miles a day, if we continue to improve, I heard from Ansiwen that it can run 6 or 700 miles in one day and one night in the West. ”

Zhu Shuying was quite unconvinced, and her eldest son Yang Wen asked again and again how she could run so fast?

After walking around the city, the family went to the teahouse to drink a little tea, visited a few silk shops, and returned to the palace in the evening.
