The willows are like smoke gently blowing the eaves of Yanchun Pavilion, and the duckweed is surging on the green waves.

In the low-hanging curtain, the faint light is reflected on the couch, and the red tide on the pink delicate body of Liu Qingjing's stunner has not receded, with a slender waist and plump buttocks, and a soft curve that is moving.

Her hair and feet have been wet with fragrant sweat, stained on the jade neck, and her bewitching face exudes a satisfied brow, coupled with the heavy wheezing sound in her mouth that has not yet subsided, it smells like a bone erosion.

Yang Yi pillowed one hand under his head, and gently stroked the jade body of this stunner with the other, Liu Qingjing was so comfortable that she let out a series of fine moans from time to time, like a warbler crying in spring.

She moved her body and stuck it into Yang Yi's arms, a pair of ** naturally spread out, trying to make herself feel more comfortable, but she didn't know that such a posture made Yang Yi almost can't help but press her under her and ravage her.

"You are really, don't tell the slave in advance about such a thing, the slave still thinks it's really a fairy apparition."

Liu Qingjing's voice was as soft as water waves flowing, his mouth opened slightly, he bit lightly on his arm, and when two rows of shallow tooth marks appeared on his arm, he glanced at him charmingly, and then stretched out his pink fragrant tongue and gently licked the marks.

"It's not that I mean to hide it from you, this matter was prepared in a bit hastily, and I didn't have time to tell you for a while, in fact, this is just the beginning, and there will be similar miracles in various places in the future."

"Is it necessary?"

"Of course, the savings of the middle and lower households for ten years are spent in one day, and many families are also in debt, they are not like rich families, the economic resources are already pitiful, once they are burdened with heavy debts, it is difficult to repay them, and they are often forced to pawn their properties, if they encounter some small disasters, these families will become displaced people, and it will be a great harm to the country and the people."

Yang Yi is by no means an exaggeration, these years are not like the next generation, as long as you are willing to work hard, you can always find a job, and it is no problem to barely support the family.

Now most of the rural areas are very closed, once there is no harvest in that acre and three points of land, the family is without food and clothing, you want to go out to work, drag the family with your mouth, most of the workshops in the city are not willing to want, generally can only be a long-term worker for the main land. Enduring the cruel exploitation of others, and because both the man and the woman have to give everything when holding a wedding, it causes a huge burden on the family, and often leads to bankruptcy. Therefore, in the countryside of the Great Song Dynasty, many families give birth to a male to the fourth son, and then discard more, and the woman is even more miserable, raising two at most, if the third child is still a girl, when the child is in labor, he uses a vessel to store water, and he is drowned when he is born.

This kind of cruelty is very common in the countryside, which is why in all dynasties, only the Great Song Dynasty has a Salesian Bureau to adopt orphans, and let the poor people who cannot afford to raise their children be brought to the Salesian Bureau to be raised by the government.

The fundamental reason for the emergence of the Salesian Bureau of the Great Song Dynasty was precisely because of the widespread occurrence of this kind of infanticide in various places, to the point that the imperial court had to take measures.

It is difficult to raise children in a poor family, and it is even more difficult to raise them to marry, as the so-called hearts of parents in the world, I believe that when most parents drown their children, their hands are trembling, tears are flowing down their faces, and they are in pain, but they have to be so ruthless, cruel to children, how can they not be cruel?

Yang Yi, as a descendant, really doesn't want to see this phenomenon, and now the population of the Great Song Dynasty is less than 50 million, the world is big, we have beaten down, but there are no people to settle down and operate, how can this work?

Yang Yi stared at the marriage customs of the Great Song Dynasty because he had deeply felt that this problem had seriously affected the future development of the Great Song Dynasty.

Liu Qingjing's breathing slowly calmed down, and her brain began to resume thinking: "But I'm afraid that just like this won't have much effect, right?" Although the people fear the gods, I am afraid that when the time comes, they may not take this seriously. ”

"This alone is definitely not good, this is a soft hand, many poor people actually want to save, but the whole social atmosphere is to admire luxury, if you don't hold a wedding banquet, you will be looked down upon by others, and you can't raise your head in the four miles and eight towns, and it may even lead to men can't get married, and women can't get married. Now that we give him a providence of God, he will have an excuse to thrift. In addition, the imperial court again vigorously advocated thrifty weddings, more publicity, the previous imperial court issued a decree, the civil wedding dowry on the household one tael of gold, five taels of silver, six colored satin tables, miscellaneous silk forty horses. In the middle of the gold five coins, silver four taels, color satin four tables, miscellaneous silk thirty horses. Three taels of silver under the household, three tables of colored satin, and fifteen horses of miscellaneous silk. Now this decree must also be strictly enforced, and this is a hard hand. In short, the time has come to have to do both hard and soft. ”

Liu Qingjing said with a smile: "This decree has been promulgated for many years, hasn't it always worked?" Could it be that now when people get married, the amount of bride price exceeds the prescribed amount, and you really want to confiscate the bride price of others? ”

"What are you laughing at?" Yang Yi stretched out his hand and pinched her plump breasts, and showed a little punishment before replying: "The bride price can not be confiscated, but as long as it is determined which family is hired beyond the specifications when they get married, the court will impose a punishment, and both men and women will be punished, I don't believe it, I can't cure this unhealthy trend." ”

If this is the case, most people will obey the laws of the court when they get married, and do it simply. But in this way, I am afraid that it will give the tax collectors another reason to extort the people. ”

"Nonsense, without this, there is no reason for the tax collector to extort the people? Good is always good, and if it's the outlaws, they still don't have that excuse? Just because of the Tian Fu, they have all kinds of excuses to blackmail, could it be that the imperial court will not accept the Tian Fu because of this? Again, as long as it is a good law, even if it is used by some people if it is implemented, the overall benefits still outweigh the disadvantages. ”

"Well, it's also true, there are so many officials in the Great Song Dynasty, no one can guarantee that all of them are good, they have power in their hands, and there is indeed no shortage of reasons for blackmailing the people. Okay, do what you say. ”

After discussing the matter, Yang Yi went downstairs to give Zhao Jie a lesson, and after Liu Qingjing was dressed up, he made an edict to order Hao to bring back the golden paper that fell from the sky last night.

Then regardless of the advice of the official, the music was played by the Taichang Temple, the palace class opened the road directly, the phoenix crown Xia took the phoenix, went out of the Xuande Gate with great fanfare, crossed the palace wall to the east, and went all the way north along the Donghuamen Street, and the huge momentum attracted hundreds of people to watch.

For a while, the people on the streets and alleys were even hotter:

"Li Yuanwai, you see, do you still say you don't believe it? The Queen Mother asked people to take back the Book of Heaven, and immediately went to the Mani Temple by the Jinglong River to worship the God of Light. ”

"What do you say, who says I don't believe it? Didn't I see it last night? The Queen Mother was shocked at this time, who could not believe it? ”

"Hey, Hu Er, didn't you say that you saw the book last night? What is written on it? ”

"Xu San, you ask him what he does, and he can't read."

"Why can't you ask me, at that time, a certain family was the first person to receive a letter from heaven, a certain family is illiterate, but there were thousands of people present last night, and there are more literate people?"

"Then Hu Er, tell me quickly, what is written in the Book of Heaven?"

"A certain family is not willing to tell you!"

"Go! If you don't say it, no one will know? ”

"I was there at the time, and I tell you, it is written in the Book of Heaven: The world competes for luxury, and bankrupts all the money for marriage. The darkness is shrouded in bitterness, and the light does not shine on the vanity. ”

"Just these four sentences? This poem is too bad......."

"Xu San, what are you talking nonsense? Aren't you afraid of offending the gods? Since this book is for the people to read, it is natural to write it clearly, if it is difficult to understand, how can it warn the world? ”

"Sin, sin, God please forgive the villain's gaffe......"

“……”

The people in the capital were already disturbed by last night's miracles, and Empress Dowager Liu immediately went to the newly completed Mani Temple to worship the God of Light with great fanfare, which made the people in the city look sideways.

This kind of miraculous thing spread quickly, and Empress Dowager Liu came out at this time to add fuel to the fire, and those who were still skeptical had to believe it. The matter of the God of Light descending from heaven in front of Fengle Tower, as if it had grown wings, spread rapidly outside the capital.

When a thing passes through the mouths of a hundred people, it will form a hundred different versions, and the more it is spread, the more mysterious it is, the more people believe it.

But on the whole, for fear of offending the gods, few people dared to talk nonsense about the contents of the Book of Heaven. At least the gods condemn the extravagance of the world and advise people to be frugal and the meaning has not changed much.

The queen mother's Luan drove back to the palace, countless good men and women flocked to the Mani Temple by the Jinglong River, burned incense and worshipped, Alan was dressed in white clothes, sitting on the lotus platform, as a bright saint, constantly instilling the concept of thrifty housekeeping, accumulating virtue and doing good.

And Manichaeism also set a special canon, accepting believers' sesame oil money no more than five times at a time.

There are three thousand weak waters, and I only take one scoop to drink.

This rule of Mani Temple is very different from the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism, the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism are not refused, the more the merrier, the more you donate, the more sincere your heart is.

However, the Mani Temple insisted that the money received for sesame oil should not exceed five times at a time, and at first glance, it felt that it was more noble and detached than the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism, and was closer to the sacred image of purifying all sentient beings. This alone has won the favor of many people.

This trick was given by Yang Yi to Li Xiangxian, as the so-called small profits but quick turnover, it doesn't matter if you receive less sesame oil money at a time, as long as you win the favor of the believers, you will not break the incense money.

And Buddhism and Taoism pay too much attention to money, which has always been Yang Yi is very disgusted, monks and Taoists do not work, but with the ability to pretend to be gods and ghosts, wantonly accumulate wealth, at least one-fifth of the wealth of the whole society is in the hands of Buddhism and Taoism, temples around the country are often the most magnificent local buildings, just like the government buildings of later generations.

In addition, temples and Taoist temples also occupy countless farmland, they do not cultivate their own land, like landlords to tenant farmers, sit back and enjoy their own profits, which is contrary to their purpose of purifying sentient beings, those bold monarchs in history have destroyed Buddha again and again, in the final analysis, they have taken up too many social resources.

Yang Yi asked Manichaeism to do this, which meant to strike a blow to the two schools of Buddhism and Taoism. I can collect up to five times, and I will purify all sentient beings like the same, what do you think?
