"Nonsense!" As soon as Sun Shao returned to Temu City, he was reprimanded by Yu for turning his head and covering his face. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info about Zhang Cheng's plan to increase the population, Yu Fu thought it was bullshit, and Sun Shao couldn't get off the stage. Although this was written by Zhang Cheng, he also agreed at the time, and Yu Xuan said that Zhang Cheng didn't make sense, which was tantamount to talking about him.

"Prime Minister, don't be in a hurry, speak slowly." Sun Shao beckoned Yu to sit down.

"The king wants to increase the population of Funan, first of all, to increase the population of the Han people, right?"

Sun Shao nodded: "Yes." ”

Yu Fan immediately asked: "Then if you restrict marrying wives and concubines now, that is, try to achieve equality between men and women, then may I ask the king, are there more people in Funan or more Han people in couples who are matched like this?" ”

Sun Shao rolled his eyes and immediately understood that this plan seemed reasonable, but in fact it was still beneficial to the Funan people, because the base of Funan people was large, if egalitarianism was practiced, then even if the proportion of Funan people was smaller, but the absolute number was still large, and for a long time, the growth of Funan people was still higher than that of Han people.

"Then what can the prime minister do?" Although Sun Shao felt a little uncomfortable on his face, he still asked very modestly, since Yu Fu said so, then he should have a better solution.

"The minister's plan is the opposite, encouraging concubines, but restricting those who have a certain property or title to take concubines, as well as different numbers of concubines." Yu flipped over, he saw that Sun Shao had some incomprehensible questions on his face, and then explained: "Now Taizhou and Haizhou, including Yue County and Yi County, who are the people with money and titles? Almost all of us Han people, those who are rich in business, those who are in the army have titles, and there are not a few people who are rich and have titles, and they deserve to be in terms of strength. Since the king wanted to increase the population of the Han people as soon as possible, why did he restrict them from taking concubines and having children? On the contrary, they should be strongly encouraged, as long as they can afford to marry and have as many children as they can have, and within a few years for one to give birth to his seventeen or eighteen sons, the proportion of Han Chinese will increase greatly. ”

"But, where are so many women?"

"There are not enough Han women, just to attract the indigenous women of Funan, to attract those who are beautiful and in good health to our Han people as concubines, the Han people are rich and have a high status, and they are worried about not being able to find a woman? Those who marry concubines have to support their wives and concubines and children, and when they are under pressure, they will think of working harder, earning more money, earning more military merits, and when the king takes action, they will work harder. As for those Funan natives, they can't afford to marry wives, isn't it just right? ”

Sun Shao was speechless, and I had to say that although Yu Xuan's idea sounded harsh, it was really practical, much more practical than he originally intended. In fact, if you think about it carefully, isn't this the case in later generations, although monogamy in the legal sense is implemented, but the rich and powerful ones are not the second wife, the third wife and even the n milk, they occupy the most women, further squeezing the living space of ordinary people, and the harmonious society is more decadent and degenerate than the decadent and degenerate capitalism. What Sun Shao didn't expect was that he would now become a member of this decadent and depraved group.

"Does the king know how many of the children of the Liu family have been passed down from the bloodline of Gaozu?" Yu chuckled.

Sun Shao shook his head: "It must be a lot, right?" ”

"A lot." Yu Fu sneered, "Not counting the children surnamed Liu who can't tell the pedigree like Liu Bei, there are more than 100,000 people registered." ”

The royal family of the Han Dynasty has a pedigree, as long as it is the descendant of Emperor Gaozu, whether there is a title or not, even if it is a commoner, as long as there is a child, they must be registered with the government, these populations are directly managed by Zongzheng, although most people have not enjoyed the benefits of the royal family, but the household registration is different from ordinary people. Those who are in a long time probably forget which generation they are, but as long as you look up, you can usually find the genealogy, of course, these genealogies may be lost during the war, then it is really impossible to say.

Liu Bei is the descendant of the authentic Gaozu, which is true, but because of the age, his family has long been unable to tell his genealogy, and the genealogy of the Han family was burned when Dong Zhuo moved the capital, and he couldn't find the relevant archives at all, so Liu Bei said that he was the king of Zhongshan Jing, but others didn't believe it, because the royal family has no archives to check, and there are other things to say about this imperial uncle, some people say that according to Liu Bei's own inheritance lineage, he is not the imperial uncle at all, but the imperial nephew, and the generation is one generation lower than that of today's son Liu Xie.

Of course, this is also a manifestation of Liu Bei's lack of learning and unskill.

"One hundred thousand?" Sun Shao gasped.

"It's nothing, in fact, by the time of mourning, the children of the Liu family have exceeded 100,000, and later in the Xijing Rebellion, a lot of people were killed, most of these people were handed down by Emperor Guangwu, if there is no such chaos in the four hundred years of the Han Dynasty, I am afraid that the children of the Liu family have exceeded 500,000."

Sun Shao smacked his tongue. From Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, to the time of mourning, it is actually only more than 200 years, that is, more than ten generations, and it has actually changed from a dozen people to hundreds of thousands, which is really scary. From this point of view, the method of turning over is the really good way.

"The prime minister has a point." Sun Shao said convincingly, thought about it, and said: "But in this way, the population of Funan will inevitably grow very slowly, there will be fewer people who farm the land, and more and more people will consume grain, won't there be a problem with the supply of food?" ”

Yu flipped his hand and waved his hand: "This time, that time, at that time, it will be adjusted again, how can there be a system that can be used for a hundred years?" ”

Sun Shao suddenly realized, and had to admit that he was a little rigid in his thinking, and Yu Tuo, an easy-to-learn master, was much more flexible than him in the idea of "poverty is change, and change is clear".

"That's okay, Prime Minister, you draw up a plan and see how it is implemented." Sun Shao said happily.

"My Majesty, this matter first involves the conferment of knighthood." Yu Fu took out a note from his arms and handed it to Sun Shao, and then said: "At present, most of the people with titles are concentrated in the army, and there are very few people with titles in addition, although the merchants are very rich, they almost do not have titles, and most of the officials are also low-knights. The minister suggested that concubines can be taken regardless of race, but the wife must be Han, and when inheriting the title, the Han children should be in front of the line, so as to ensure the continuation of the Han bloodline......"

Yu Flip said several things in one breath, all of which were key points, Sun Shao listened to them one by one, and promised Yu Flip to discuss them with everyone after reading them carefully, Yu Flip retreated with satisfaction, and left a little arrogantly.

Sun Shao watched the song several times, pondered for a long time, and felt that Yu Xuan's preparations this time were very detailed, and he had taken into account almost everything he wanted to consider. But he laughed again later, Yu Xuan's plan was very detailed, but there were still private goods in it. Most of the people with titles in the Yue State are in the army, Cui Qian is the first to be awarded a marquis for military merits, and the last time he was a vassal, eighty percent of the marquis of a thousand households or more were marquis of military merit, and the proportion of marquis among civilian officials was very small. According to the old system of the Han Dynasty, usually the people who did the three dukes and nine kings had to be marquis, especially the prime minister, regardless of whether there was merit before, as long as they were the prime minister, they must be marquis, this practice was passed down from the time of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty when Gongsun Hong was the prime minister, and now Yu Tuo is the prime minister, but his title is still a long time ago.

Fortunately, now that the land is available, it is time to balance it, but the issue of inheritance rights must indeed be systematized, otherwise it will backfire if a group of parasites are created. Aristocrats should have the appearance of aristocrats, not whoever is rich can be a nobleman.

Sun Shao didn't make a decision immediately after reading the recital, he likes to deal with it coldly now, especially things related to the overall situation, he likes to put it aside for a while, think more and think more, so as not to make wrong decisions in a hurry.

Sun Shao stood up, instructed Guan Suo to pack up the bookcase, and then walked towards the harem with Guan Xing. When he was about to walk to the Jiaofang Hall where Guan Feng lived, Guan Xing reminded: "The queen may not be in the palace. ”

"Where did she go?"

"It seems to have been in Changle Palace these days." Guan Xing said with a smile: "After Mrs. Zhuge arrived in Temu City, the queen liked their mother and daughter very much, and arranged for them to live in the palace these days. The prince had an extra playmate, and he ran to Changle Palace as soon as he got out of class, so the Queen Mother simply asked people to move the school to Changle Palace, and let Zhang Changshi's daughter also study together and be a companion to the prince. ”

Sun Shao then remembered that he had not yet arranged a place for Zhang Cheng's wife and daughter, so he arranged for Zhang Cheng to go to Haizhou. He patted his head and turned around and walked towards Changle Palace. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Guan Feng and Zhang Cheng's daughter Zhang Yu with their heads on their heads, pouting their buttocks and squatting there to play with mud, their four little hands were full of mud, and even their faces were full of mud. Seeing Sun Shao coming in, Sun Feng hurriedly stood up and said in a proper manner: "Erchen has seen my father." His expression was very respectful, but his muddy eyes didn't look respectful at all.

When Xiao Zhang Yu saw Sun Shao, he hid behind Sun Feng a little nervously, revealing half of his little face, and looked at Sun Shao timidly. Sun Feng pulled her over, pulled her throat and laughed: "Why are you so cowardly, you don't know how to salute when you see my father?" ”

Xiao Zhang Yu then remembered, lifted her skirt and knelt, kneeling in the muddy water all of a sudden, and the skirt that was already a little dirty was all mud all of a sudden. Seeing that the little girl was so aggrieved that she was about to cry, Sun Shao couldn't help laughing, stepped forward and pinched her pink face and said, "Don't cry, let the queen make you a few more beautiful dresses to compensate you later." ”

"The king's ......" A warbler sound came from the hall, and several women led by Guan Feng rushed out to greet each other. Sun Shao looked at Zhang Cheng's wife Zhuge and smiled: "Your daughter is very good, I like it very much, how about it, let's get married?" ”

Zhuge was taken aback, couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly responded with a smile: "How can this be climbed?" ”

"Hehehe......" Guan Feng smiled: "Zhang Gong is the king's teacher, Changshi and the king are like brothers, what is there to climb." It's just that Feng'er is stubborn, I'm afraid it's not worthy of such a well-behaved child as Yu'er. ”

"The queen is serious, the queen is serious." Zhuge was flattered and hurriedly thanked him.

Sun Shao's eyes swept and he saw Zhou Yu following behind. Zhou Yu is Sun Feng's enlightenment teacher, and now he is still Sun Feng's husband, and he has to come to the palace every day to teach, and now that the school has moved to Changle Palace, she naturally followed, and by the way, she accompanied the bridge.

Sun Shao didn't know what to say for a while, Zhou Yu is twenty-two years old this year, if it weren't for those things, she would have been married a long time ago, but now she has become an old girl, which makes Sun Shao feel very uncomfortable. He opened his mouth, but he didn't know what to say, and his expression was a little embarrassed. However, Zhou Yu was generous, bowed and stood quietly aside.

Sun Shao climbed the steps, saluted the bridge, and said respectfully: "Mother, I'm back." ”

"As soon as you come back, you'll be busy, what did Yu Flip tell you?" Daqiao waved his hand, motioned for Sun Shao to sit beside him, and asked with a smile. I haven't seen it for a year, the bridge has not seen the old, on the contrary, it looks more radiant, I think it is that there are many fruits in Funan, nourishing people.

"It's just some government affairs."

"The older he gets, the more energetic he becomes, and he doesn't let you rest, so he rushes to report on political affairs? Is it a day or two away? ”

Sun Shao smiled and explained: "This can't be blamed on Prime Minister Yu, I asked for it, I sent an urgent letter back when I was in Haizhou, asking him to think about it, he came to me in a hurry, he had a better idea." ”

"Oh." Daqiao answered, sat up, looked into Sun Shao's eyes and asked, "Have you found my family?" ”

Sun Shao shook his head: "I sent someone to find it, but unfortunately there is no news yet, but don't worry, my mother can rest assured, I entrusted Zhang Gong to send a message in the Dahan Gazette, and I believe that someone will come soon." It's just that it's a long way from the Central Plains to here, and my mother is better to be patient. ”

Ohashi sighed: "What am I anxious about, there has been no news for so many years, presumably there is no one left." Otherwise, it would have come a long time ago. Maybe it's just a matter of talking about personnel. I thought that my Qiao family was also a big family in Huaiyang, but I didn't expect that now we two sisters are left to believe in fate, it is really fateful. ”

"Mother, what are you talking about, aren't we and Xiao Yu'er and the others your relatives?" Guan Feng said angrily.

"Yes, both." Ohashi smiled, but a little reluctantly.

When Guan Feng saw it, he exchanged glances with Xiahou Hui and the others, and said with a smile: "When the king returned from his cruise, the palace suddenly became more joyful. Mother, you and the king are talking, I'll arrange a family banquet, and invite the eldest princess to come together in the evening to be happy with my mother, okay? ”

Ohashi smiled and nodded repeatedly. Guan Feng smiled and pulled Zhuge away, and said to Zhou Yu before leaving: "Ayu, since Yu'er is my daughter-in-law, you should work harder and teach it together." Anyway, teaching one is teaching, and teaching two is also teaching. ”

Zhou Yu smiled faintly: "The queen has an edict, how dare she disobey." She also walked out, looking after the two children who continued to play with the mud in the courtyard, and from a distance, she looked like a Roman statue in light clothes, bumpy and convex, but quiet and natural.

Daqiao looked at Zhou Yu in the distance, and it took a long time to turn his head to look at Sun Shao, and after looking at him carefully, he frowned and said, "It's a lot darker." ”

"The sun in the South China Sea is too strong, and it's normal to be darker." Sun Shao held the hand of the bridge and said with a smile: "It's almost winter, and my mother should also bask in the sun more, although it will tan more, it is good for the body." ”

The bridge was silent, and after a while, he said: "The Central Plains is settled, do you still want to go out?" ”

Sun Shao smacked his lips: "I may stay in Temu for a while, but it won't be too long." The Shan sent envoys to say that the Huns had built a new country of Pyu, and they had a lot of dealings with Chola, and they often bullied and oppressed the Shan countries, and if we didn't react, the other subject countries would not take us seriously. ”

"Is Zhu Luo a small country in Tianzhu?"

Sun Shao was a little surprised, Daqiao never asked about these political affairs, how could she still know that Zhu Luo was a country in Tianzhu? He laughed, "Mother also knows?" ”

"Listen to Ayu." Ohashi pursed his lips, and his red and full lips pursed out, which was not gorgeous.

Sun Shao frowned and replied vaguely.

"Aman, don't bother me." Daqiao sighed and said very helplessly: "I know that you feel sorry for me and don't want me to be wronged, but the family is like this, they are often involuntarily, and Gongjin died young, so they are inevitably a little anxious." Actually, then again, it was me, and I didn't expect you to be where you are today. ”

Sun Shao was silent.

"Okay, I won't force you, in your words, the twisted melon is not sweet." Daqiao patted Sun Shao's hand: "However, Ayu has already finished writing the South China Sea chapter of the "New Classic of Mountains and Seas", and the next step may be to write the Borneo chapter and the West Sea chapter, if you want it to be convenient, take her around." Don't worry, she won't bother you, you just treat her as an accompanying soldier. ”

Sun Shao raised his eyelids in embarrassment, and was facing Daqiao's begging gaze, and he couldn't bear it for a while, and the words that came to his mouth still didn't come out. He thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll think about it, and I'll take her with me if I have the chance." ”

"Then I'll thank you." Daqiao smiled, raised his hand and pinched Sun Shao's nose affectionately: "Aman, although you have become a king, you still listen to me as before, I don't know what life I am blessed to cultivate, and I can actually have a mother-son friendship with you." ”

Sun Shao smiled, and was about to speak, when he suddenly felt that something was wrong. Taoism had already arisen in the Han Dynasty at this time, but Taoism generally did not talk about these things of reincarnation, which sounded more like Tianzhu Buddhism or Brahmanism.

"Mother, how many lifetimes do people have?" Sun Shao asked tentatively.

"Yes, doesn't Tianzhu's Futu say that there is reincarnation?" Daqiao glanced at Sun Shao in surprise, and couldn't help laughing again: "Oh, I remember, you don't know yet, recently there have been a lot of monks and nuns in Tianzhu City, and they are raising funds everywhere, preparing to build a pagoda in the city to worship relics." They also said, "You have done them a favor by driving out the Brahmins, and they are going to build a Buddha to pray for you and let the Buddha bless you." ”

"Bless me?" Sun Shao sneered, his face suddenly changed, he was murderous, and the hand holding the bridge suddenly exerted force. Daqiao was in pain, and involuntarily shouted: "Aman, what's wrong with you?" ”

Sun Shao came back to his senses, quickly let go of Daqiao's hand, and said apologetically: "Mother, I was careless and hurt you, right?" ”

"It's fine." Ohashi rubbed his hands and asked in surprise, "What's wrong with you, you looked so scary just now." ”

"Where did my mother know about the Buddha?" Sun Shao asked, "What else do you know?" ”

"Many people are saying that there are a lot of bhikshus and bhikshunis who have been preaching the scriptures in the city recently, and the scriptures they preach are quite different from what Zhenrong said back then, so I asked a bhikshuni to give a lecture, but then Ayu said that these are all heresies, so I listened to her advice and didn't let her come again."

Sun Shao glanced at Zhou Yu outside and laughed: "Ayu is knowledgeable in the end, knowing that these are evil ways, Mother, you listen to her more, don't believe these bhikshus and bhikshunis, they are all nonsense, I will let them be driven out in two days." ”

Daqiao looked at Sun Shao in surprise, and couldn't understand it for a while, she listened to the bhikshuni's teachings, and thought it was very interesting, why did Sun Shao turn his face when he heard it, and he wanted to drive out all the bhikshus and nuns? Could it be that these good-looking bhikshus and bhikshunis are actually beasts of the flood?

"Mother, I can't say anything about this matter sentence by sentence, but I can tell you that whoever believes in Buddhism is unlucky. Since you have heard Ayu talk about Tianzhu, you must know that Tianzhu was originally a very powerful empire, and there is a king named Ashoka, right? ”

Daqiao nodded, his stunned look still on his face, looking a little similar to Xiao Zhang Yu who was frightened just now.

"Ashoka believed in the Buddha, and his kingdom eventually collapsed." Sun Shao sneered: "Buddhism makes people endure humiliation, put hope in the afterlife, don't resist, what kind of bullshit is this?" Could it be that when someone else kills me, I can only accept my fate, and then hope for that ethereal afterlife? If I had made the subjects of the Yue Kingdom believe in Buddhism, sooner or later the Yue Kingdom would become a boneless slug. ”

Ohashi nodded as if he didn't understand. She listened to the bhikshuni preach, but she only heard that chanting the sutra could pray for Sun Shao's blessing, and she didn't think about such a complicated thing at all, besides, she didn't know whether what Sun Shao said was right or wrong, but based on the trust she had always had in Sun Shao, of course she believed that what Sun Shao said was right. In fact, although what Sun Shao said is roughly not bad, it is not completely in line with the truth, you must know that primitive Buddhism is the same as primitive Confucianism, it was originally a philosophy, but it slowly changed its taste. For Sun Shao, who doesn't seem to understand religion or not, and is accustomed to seeing monks and nuns reciting Amitabha Buddha riding a BMW, what he knows is one thing, religion is fucking deceitful.

Sun Shao said a few words to Daqiao, and then he was anxious to go out to inquire about related matters, he didn't want Buddhism to spread in the Yue country, of course he had to deal with it as soon as possible. When passing by Zhou Yu's side, Zhou Yu suddenly said, "Is the king going to expel bhikshus and bhikshunis?" ”

Sun Shao didn't hear clearly at first, and only remembered after taking two steps, he stopped, turned his head, looked at Zhou Yu, and asked hesitantly, "Ayu, what did you just say?" ”

Zhou Yu slowly turned around and bowed slightly: "The maiden wants to ask the king, if she is in such a hurry to leave, is she going to expel the monks and nuns." ”

"Huh? Yes! Sun Shao nodded, "What do you think differently?" ”

"Exactly." Zhou Yu said lightly: "As the old saying goes, it is better to be sparse than blocked, and the same is true for bhikshus and bhikshunis. ”

(To be continued)
