Chapter 417: Empathy

"Ah, I finally feel these days that I still have a living father!" Lu Lingqi sat in the wide carriage, eating cut fruit.

This is not an ordinary sand fruit, but a sand fruit cut by Fang Tian's halberd!

At this time, Lu Lingqi also rarely did not wear armor, but wore a queen's dress - Lu Lingqi was also pregnant for the first time, and she also did not dare to be willful at this time, and honestly accepted the "seizure of power" and temporarily stepped down as the "chief of the guard".

Because Lu Lingqi never needs maids in ordinary times, the maids who are taken care of by her at this time are all found temporarily, plus the experienced Wang family, who also volunteered as a counselor.

Until now, thinking of his son being accepted as a righteous son by the king and queen of Chu, the Wang family still feels unreal, and when he thinks of his son being with the king of Chu, he is still a little apprehensive......

Knowing the son Mo Ruomu, what is Deng Ai like, will the Wang family not know? lest he anger the king of Chu.

But on the other hand, Bai Tu and Deng Ai get along well - now Bai Tu is mainly using some universal basic methods to help Deng Ai correct his stuttering.

Lu Lingqi is already pregnant now, and in a few years, Xiaobai, whether it is a man or a woman, will go to school and study, and Deng Ai will be the best candidate to accompany her at that time.

It's just a matter of stuttering......

First of all, Bai Tu can be sure that Deng Ai's stuttering has nothing to do with nervousness and lack of self-confidence, not to mention Deng Ai in history, Wu Neng commands the three armies, and Wen Neng is in charge of the government, what big scene has he not seen? I didn't see his stutter getting better......

Besides, even the current Deng Ai is the master who dares to directly use ethics and people in the middle of the snipe, no matter how you look at it, it is not related to shyness.

Therefore, Bai Tu guessed that Deng Ai's stuttering was mostly due to physiological reasons, and he had asked Wang before, and indeed Deng Ai was seriously ill when he was three years old, which is also the reason why Deng Ai generally felt that Deng Ai was a fool - he was stupid!

But now it seems that Deng Ai did not burn out his brain, but the pharyngeal and nasal parts should have been in a very bad condition at that time, and it was the stage of language enlightenment at that time, so Deng Ai developed the habit of stuttering.

Now Bai Tu's correction of Deng Ai is mainly based on pronunciation, that is, to start learning to speak again.

As for mentality, character...... Although Deng Ai cannot be regarded as a perfect person in this regard, and even Deng Ai in history, his personality is his minus, but these are by no means the reasons for his stuttering.

Deng Ai is only five and a half years old, and it is completely too late to correct his stutter or personality.

When Bai Tu's car returned to Jiangling, Hua Tuo had already rushed over from Jinling and joined the car of the King of Chu, which made Bai Tu even more relieved.

In fact, Hua Tuo didn't do anything......

In Hua Tuo's words, Lu Lingqi's current situation is normal, and she can only pay attention to some daily habits.

However, with the divine doctor in charge, thinking about the physique of General Lu Lingqi Jinyu, Bai Tu felt that if there was another accident like this, the requirements for mothers in this era would be too harsh!

At the same time, Bai Tu also thought that maybe he should really advocate the issue of raising the age of mothers.

Although it was only more than two months when he arrived in Gangneung, it was not the time to show his pregnancy at all, but Bai Tu looked at the past and jumped up and down...... cough, Lu Lingqi, who is cautious and looking forward to guarding against possible enemies, has become a little more careful when she walks now, and out of empathy, Bai Tu has become more and more concerned about all pregnant women.

In the Han Dynasty, the childbearing age was generally fourteen or fifteen years old, or even thirteen years old.

Not to mention the private farmers who are thirsty for labor, Emperor Wen of Han in the Western Han Dynasty was only fourteen years older than his son Emperor Jing, counting the pregnancy in October......

Even for men, giving birth at such an early age is obviously detrimental to health, and I want to see it for the first time...... Ahem, anyway, it's not as early as Emperor Wen of Han!

Not to mention that for women who have not yet fully developed, age alone puts the birth that is already very dangerous in the current environment into an even more dangerous situation.

Population is very important, and in these years when the land is still vast and sparsely populated, any prince is encouraged to have children, but ...... Using early childbearing to fight against "loss" is, in Bai Tu's view, definitely not a smart way.

Even if nothing happens on the spot, it is not good for the health of men and women in the future.

Bai Tu and Hua Tuo also talked about it......

"Wang Yingming, according to the old man's opinion, the age of a woman's childbearing is indeed too early, if it is delayed for four or five years, the mortality rate of the first child can be reduced by at least seventy percent." After Hua Tuo heard what Bai Tu said, he immediately spoke.

Of course, Hua Tuo also knows that the death rate has dropped by seventy percent, and it is still born at the age of thirteen or fourteen, which is more conducive to population growth - postponing it for four or five years? During this time, they gave birth to a second or even a third child, which naturally washed away the mortality rate.

However, Hua Tuo didn't mention this, he was a doctor, he only needed to give Bai Tu advice from the medical aspect, as for the rest...... He's just a doctor.

After Bai Tu was confirmed by Hua Tuo, he was also ready to discuss this issue with the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the Ministry of Rites after returning to Jinling.

The Ministry of Civil Affairs starts with the people's livelihood, and the Ministry of Rites starts with the concept......

In fact, the childbearing age in Chu has slowed down compared with other regions.

Although Bai Tu did not specifically advocate "late marriage and late childbearing", at least during the period of the General's Palace, the fine of "fifteen years of non-marriage" had been abolished......

The problem of the low age of childbearing in the Han Dynasty was not entirely the will of the people, but the "correctness of the court" that began in the time of Liu Bang.

After all, after the turmoil at the end of the Qin Dynasty and the dispute between Chu and Han, the population of the early Western Han Dynasty dropped to more than 10 million.

Therefore, when it comes to early childbearing, the royal family and the people are often the most active - the former leads by example, and the latter is half forced and half is also their own needs.

As for the wealthy families, on the contrary, the age of marriage and childbearing is generally two or three years later, or even more, after all, the wealthy families do not need to worry about those fines, at most they cooperate with one or two when the policy is tightest, who doesn't know that the safety of childbirth is higher in a few years?

Bai Tu suddenly stopped encouraging and urging marriage, at least the shilling people's fertility motivation was reduced by 30%, and there was no pressure from the imperial court.

"Hua Lao and Pang Shangshu's plan, how is it now?" Bai Tu asked specifically.

Recently, Hua Tuo ran the time of the Ministry of Engineering, and it was almost in time to stay in the medical school, because Pang Tong had a plan......

This plan is related to whether the real qi machine can be used on a large scale!

"What the old man can do, he has basically done almost the same, at least for a short time, he can't make any more improvements, Pang Shangshu wants to wait for the king to go back, preside over the six ministries and the Privy Council, and discuss this matter together."

Looking at Hua Tuo's meaning, the "Pan True Qi Refining Plan" is still relatively smooth in terms of theory, and then it is a question of whether it can be actually promoted......
