Thanks again for the tip!

"Xiao Wang understands, Xiao Wang understands, what Xiao Wang promised, even if it is at all costs, Xiao Wang will definitely complete it." King Baseton said immediately.

"Lord, I have heard that Your Majesty intends to sign a peace treaty with Siam, so don't let Your Majesty down at this time." Xu Chengming said softly.

"Peace treaty?" King Baseton asked suspiciously, "Can the general reveal a little more?" ”

"I don't know the specifics of this, but as the name suggests, it should be a treaty between the two countries that will be repaired forever, and I heard that in the future, the Ming and Siam will act according to the agreement in the peace treaty." Xu Chengming said.

"Your Majesty Shengming, Your Majesty Shengming! Siam will be the suzerainty of the Ming Dynasty! King Baseton said excitedly.

"Get things done first, Your Majesty's decree should be coming soon." Xu Chengming said.

"Yes, yes, Xiao Wang will arrange it immediately." King Baseton said excitedly.

……

King Baseton made up his mind this time, even if he dug three feet into the ground, he would dig out the Donghu people hiding in the deep mountains, and he directly gave a death order to fifty thousand-man squads, and each squad must capture at least three thousand more slaves. By March of next year, the team that captures the most slaves will be rewarded heavily, while the team that does not reach the minimum number will be severely punished.

Just when the two provinces of Burma and Yangon were frantically capturing road slaves, the Ming Dynasty ushered in the sixteenth year of the Apocalypse, Zhu Youxiao is also thirty-one years old this year, and Zhang Yan is also thirty years old, and about twenty percent of the concubines in the palace have also entered the age of thirty.

In this era, thirty years old is a threshold for women, and after thirty, they are called half-aged. It is said that in Dongying, the general's wife and concubine no longer served when they reached the age of 30, and it is said that there was an unwritten rule in the Manchu Dynasty that the concubine would no longer serve after the age of 30. In the Ming Dynasty, there seemed to be no such unwritten rule, but the matter of draft girls from the folk was brought up again.

"I said that I am not allowed to mention the draft girl in the future, and in the future, the children of the royal family, even the crown prince, will not be allowed to draft the draft girl again." Zhu Youxiao objected.

"Your Majesty, the concubines in the palace are all old and decrepit, and I am afraid that they will not be able to wait for Your Majesty in the future." Zhang Yan said softly.

Hearing this, Zhu Youxiao almost spurted out a mouthful of old blood, if this sentence is placed in the future life, he must be drowned by the spitting star, "Who said that?" Haven't you heard of Baozhu:, the charm still exists, this sentence? ”

"The emperor is sage, for the sake of the people of the world, I just want to wronged the emperor!" Zhang Yan said.

"Baozhu, I will never be wronged." Zhu Youxiao said.

"The emperor is a generation of saints, don't dislike the concubines in the palace in the future, just be old and decrepit." Zhang Yan said with a smile.

"Thirty years old is the age of a woman in her prime, where you can talk about old age and decrepitude, if it is fifty years old, Baozhu you say this sentence again, it is almost the same." Zhu Youxiao explained.

"The concubine knows that the emperor loves beauties, and loves the country even more, and the emperor is unwilling to spend the people's fat and ointment for the sake of the empire, and he is even more unwilling to hurt the people to satisfy his own selfish desires. The concubine will help the emperor arrange it. Zhang Yan said with a smile.

"Am I a very person in your hearts?" Zhu Youxiao couldn't make sense when he saw it, so he couldn't help but ask.

Zhang Yan and the other concubines all smiled and said nothing, it seems that the answer is obvious.

"Orb, you answer first?" Although the answer can be seen from the faces of the women, Zhu Youxiao still does not give up.

"The emperor is a promising saint, since the fourth year of the apocalypse, the palace has only been abolished, in addition to the palace guards female soldiers, the palace maids in the palace from nearly 10,000 to now less than 2,000 people, and the new palace maids are orphans adopted by the emperor from the people, although the emperor loves beauty, but there is nothing wrong, let alone from the people, if the emperor is sexual, it can only be said that it is lustful but not lewd." Zhang Yan thought for a while and said.

"At the end of the day, I'm still a person." Zhu Youxiao said helplessly.

"A virgin loves sex, and accepts it with courtesy. What's more, the emperor is the king of a country, and it is already commendable to be able to do what he is today. Fan Huifei also said.

"Well, that's not going to be discussed." Zhu Youxiao felt that there was no need to discuss it, and it seemed that the answer to this question had formed a consensus throughout the empire.

After speaking, Zhu Youxiao said: "However, it is indeed a very dangerous thing for a woman to get pregnant after the age of thirty, especially after the age of thirty-five, you should pay more attention to it, and the pregnancy of a woman after the age of thirty-five will have an impact on adults and children." ”

In later generations, the age of 34 is considered an advanced maternal age, and in this era, the level of medical care is more backward and the risk is higher. Zhu Youxiao is not short of heirs now, there is no need to let the harem concubines take this risk, if this is not handled well, it is very likely that it will be one corpse and two lives.

"The concubine knows, and the concubine will let the Jingshifang pay attention to this matter." Zhang Yan said.

"Baozhu, tonight, I will stay in Kunning Palace." Zhu Youxiao said.

"No. The concubine will be arranged. Zhang Yan said with a smile. Zhang Yan understood what Zhu Youxiao meant.

……

After dinner, Zhu Youxiao approved the chapter in the Qianqing Palace for a while, and then went directly to Kunning Palace. At this time, in Kunning Palace, in addition to Zhang Yan and the palace maid, Yang Ai was also there.

"Yang Ai, you are also here today, just make me a pot of tea, I like to drink the tea you make." Zhu Youxiao said.

"No." Yang Ai nodded shyly.

"It was the concubine who asked Yang Ai to come over." Zhang Yan said with a smile.

"Yang Ai, are you still comfortable teaching in a girls' school?" Zhu Youxiao said.

"It's fine." Yang Ai said shyly.

"Yang Ai, have you drunk? Why is your face so red? Zhu Youxiao asked.

"No, no." Yang Ai hurriedly waved his hand and said, "The emperor doesn't like to drink, and the concubine doesn't like to drink." ”

"It can't be typhoid fever, right?" Zhu Youxiao asked nervously. At this time, Yang Ai's face seemed to be even redder.

"No, no, the concubine is in good health!" Yang Ai said.

"Your Majesty, don't guess, it was the concubine who asked Yang Ai to come over to sleep." Zhang Yan said.

"Poof!" Zhu Youxiao squirted out a sip of tea directly and sprayed Zhang Yan on the other side.

"Your Majesty, let Yang Ai come to bed, you don't have to be so excited!" Zhang Yan hurriedly patted Zhu Youxiao on the back and said jokingly.

"Baozhu, you are really messing around, how old is Yang Ai? You let her come to bed. Zhu Youxiao said.

"The concubine is eighteen years old this year." This time, Yang Ai said first.

"I recruited you into the palace to raise you, not to let you come to sleep, but to hope that you will be more productive in the future." Zhu Youxiao explained.

"Your Majesty, even if the concubine is more promising, the concubine still has to marry someone in the end, and the concubine thinks that it is better to marry someone else than to marry the emperor." Yang Ai said without showing weakness.
