In the middle of the forest, there are large areas of trees that are very lush.

Just as Runzhi and his party were about to walk out of the woods on the Fujian-Vietnam border, suddenly a group of Praetorian Guards arrived at a gallop.

This time it was not a eunuch, but an obvious court lady dressed as a man.

"The one in front is Lord An Ren Min'an?"

"Yu Yu ·····"

The female officer grabbed Ma and carried him away and asked Runzhi very seriously.

"It's down there, I don't know what you're doing?"

The female officer put her hat in order, pulled the corner of her coat, which was slightly larger, and then said almost very shyly:

An Renmin received the order, carried by the sky, and the emperor Zhao said: Recently, the Daya Empire sent an envoy to the capital, saying that it wanted to annex a small country called Daqi. This banner has always been a loyal follower of our state, and all factions in the capital have discussed this matter, but in the end they are helpless, and I hope Aiqing will come to the capital as soon as possible to discuss. The envoy of the atmospheric empire was impatient and killed the person sent by the Penglai Island State to study, and the Penglai Island Country wanted to take advantage of this to ask the teacher to ask for the guilt, and also asked Aiqing to consider it. Chin this! ”

This Emperor Yongzheng is not a famous person, how to send a female official here to discuss major matters, this is not Emperor Yongzheng's consistent style.

"The female officer has a good temperament! Please also ask the female official to return to Beijing to say a few more kind words for the official! ”

"Of course, goodbye, my lord!"

The female officer patted the horse's buttocks,

Several of the other female officers also mounted their horses, and then raised their leather whips, and in a short time the horses disappeared without a trace.

"These women are really stunning, such a beauty, they came here just to send us such information, it is indeed touching!"

"You don't know this, in the palace, not all beautiful women are used to provide for the emperor's bed, and some beautiful women who know martial arts are generally used directly for the emperor as internal guards, and are used as guards when the emperor and his concubines spend candles in the cave room. Some of these beauties will also be favored by the emperor for various reasons, so these beauties are nominally one of the emperor's three thousand concubines, but in fact, they are just the emperor's security guards and concubines. The women in this part of the palace are usually in the most important place in the palace, that is, the emperor's side. ”

Runzhi thought for a moment, and then continued vividly:

"These people look weak on weekdays, just holding a fan to fan the emperor, or giving the emperor a back and foot massage, but in fact, they are all secretly protecting the emperor, after all, these people are all born in martial arts, and naturally they all know the qin, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they are all first-class beauties in this world, but since ancient times, most of these beauties have died of loneliness and old age and deep palace compounds for life, or after thirty, they apply to go out of the palace to marry some of the royal relatives outside the palace who have needs as wives and concubines. Fate is also very sad! ”

Cheng Hanyun rode a horse behind him, as if he was thinking about the question just now, and said this to Runzhi as he wanted.

"Speaking of what was just said in the holy decree, have you heard of it?" Runzhi seemed to be half-convinced and continued: "It stands to reason that the Daya Empire is very close to us, and when such a big thing happens in this country, some of our very gossipy ordinary people probably already know about it, and it is estimated that even when there is a war, they only care about the escape route, hahaha"

"Actually, I also know about this matter, but this matter has nothing to do with our Huaxia Empire. So I'm not very concerned."

"Tell me, what do you think of their operation?"

Xiaoqingguo and Xiaosaiguo, the public says that the public is reasonable, and the mother-in-law says that the mother-in-law is reasonable, but they don't give in to each other, and the result is that the fight is a mess, and each other's people are in the war, bleeding and tearing, grief-stricken, which is embarrassing.

An unjust war is the destruction of the human soul, bringing only endless calamity and destruction, and is the common enemy of all people with a conscience. ----- blood poured into it

The strength of Xiaoqingguo is too weak, mainly because the population is too small.

In fact, I think that at the beginning, about a hundred years ago, the population of Xiaoqingguo was not inferior to that of Xiaosaiguo.

It was only later that the loyal son of Xiaosaiguo used economic strategies to force the domestic prices of Xiaoqingguo to skyrocket, so it was already quite difficult for people to raise children.

At this time, the prime minister of Xiaosai took the lead and issued an initiative with the other two countries, saying that it was between Xiaosai and Xiaoqing and Dasha, because the three countries live together in this place, this place is limited, and the resources are also limited, and he proposed that the reason why the three countries have a war is actually because the population is too large, resulting in insufficient resources, which fundamentally induces the war between the three countries.

Wouldn't it be nice for him to sit down and sign an agreement to limit the number of children born in their own countries, so that the three countries can enjoy peace forever.

In fact, this Guan Zhongzi is a very cunning person, because he has a fancy to the Three Kingdoms, in fact, the strongest fertility is Xiaoqingguo.

Because of the pale yellow skin of the people of Xiaoqingguo, the hard-working and hard-working character, especially the handsome guys and beauties everywhere, their fertility is very high, which is beyond the reach of other two countries.

If this continues, sooner or later, the other two countries will all belong to Xiaoqingguo.

After all, as long as there are people, there are destined to be rivers and lakes.

The more people there are, the bigger the rivers and lakes, and the more land is actually used or occupied in various ways, whether it is migrating from Xiaoqing to other two countries, directly using wars to occupy land, or smuggling, and so on.

But compared with the other two countries, Xiaoqingguo has a characteristic, the monarch of Xiaoqingguo, Yao Gai, and Prime Minister Sheng Haizi are very afraid of things.

Generally, as long as Xiaoqingguo formulates any system, it will resolutely let its subordinates implement it no matter what, and there is no matter how many decades or hundreds of years or anything that directly threatens its rule, and it does not want to change the existing mechanism.

In fact, Dasha had already negotiated privately with the high-level leaders of the small Saiguo, so he understood the intentions of the small Saiguo.

Sure enough, less than a year after the agreement between the three countries, the small Sai country announced the abolition of the birth restriction order on the grounds of the poor population decline in the country, and introduced a mechanism to encourage childbirth, and anyone who gave birth to a child could be rewarded with a reward of more than one month, while those who did not give birth to children needed to be fined.

Dasha reluctantly supported it for a year and a half, announcing the complete withdrawal of this birth restriction order, and also issued an announcement to reward childbirth, and those who have given birth to more than eight children can also be selected as "heroic mothers" and other honorary titles and provide generous bonuses.

On the contrary, the original fertility capacity of Xiaoqingguo was the first in the three countries, but since the strict implementation of this restriction order, since then, the young people of Xiaoqingguo no longer want to have more children, and it is very troublesome to even give birth to one.

Because there are too few babies born, there is a lack of demand stimulation in all walks of life, the economy is weak for a long time, and the social contradictions are more complicated.

Not only that, but the population of Xiaoqingguo began to gradually become dominated by the elderly, and it was difficult to recruit soldiers

As the population decreases, there will naturally be fewer top talents, because all kinds of talents can be produced almost proportionally, and the larger the population base, the better the talents.

At this time, Xiao Saiguo thinks that the time has come!

So Xiao Saiguo sent people to the border of Xiaoqingguo to stir up trouble.

Sure enough, not long after, the war between the two countries began, and the Dasha Empire just stood aside and watched the excitement.

Xiaoqingguo has too few births, so it is almost impossible to recruit soldiers, so it is not allowed, and even some old people in their seventies and eighties carry bows and arrows to the battlefield and make meritorious contributions to the country.

The battlefield is extremely brutal, and the surrounding countries are watching the excitement.

"Guess what's going to happen in the end?"

Coldly, Runzhi suddenly stopped talking about the story all the time, and then asked the old patriarch like this.

"Presumably, Xiaoqingguo was defeated, and then that disputed land was snatched away by Xiaosaiguo, right?"

"Not exactly"

"It's much more fun than that!"

"Oh, how's that? I hope you will make it clear! ”

The bright sun shines charmingly on the earth, leaving a golden yellow on the earth.

The countless peony flowers are in full bloom, and it turns out that in the south, this peony flower can also bloom very beautifully.

In addition to the peony flowers, there are also moon seasons, violets, lilacs, roses, lilies, etc., all blooming brilliantly, as if to show people the most beautiful side of this spring, which is indeed dazzling.

"Actually, in the end, the two countries exchanged 10,000 women for each other! It is the soldiers on both sides who specifically single out those who are unmarried and proficient in a language commonly known as Shayu, which is the common language of the Three Kingdoms, and generally in the army, at least half of the soldiers can speak Shayu, but they are not usually used much. At the same time, the Great Desert Kingdom and the two empires also exchanged 10,000 women, and all of them chose 10,000 of the unmarried enemy soldiers as their husbands through a two-way choice, so that the three countries had at least two hundred years of peace and prosperity."

Runzhi continued:

"In fact, in the final analysis, the statement of the big country is very crucial, it turns out that at this moment, because the big country has long favored sons over women, people are used to drowning the girls who are born, just to keep the men, so the ratio of men and women in the big country is out of balance. Dasha urgently needs a large number of young and beautiful women to come and become the daughters-in-law of the vast number of singles in Dasha country, so Dasha country has thought of such a wonderful plan. Of course, this also has something to do with the Great Sand Country and geography, because once the Great Sand Country does not intervene, then once the Small Sai Country annexes the Little Green Country, then its population and land can compete with the Great Sand Empire. This is something that the Dasha Empire will never allow."

When the old patriarch heard this, he said:

In this way, it turns out that intermarriage is an important way to solve the conflicts between ethnic groups, and it turns out that many behaviors between humans and apes in the animal kingdom are actually the same. I remember that in the deep mountains of our Wanjiatun, there is a group of white gibbons, these apes are divided into different tribes, once there is a dispute between different tribes because of territory, or in order to avoid the appearance of a group frame caused by land competition, these apes have a rule, that is, whenever there is a conflict, some females in the race will be exchanged with each other, and then directly on the spot to match between male and female, other apes are watching from the sidelines, eager to try, The territorial disputes between the races between such different ape tribes were thus well resolved."

Li Xianling listened, so he said:

"Actually, humans probably changed from apes, and we all know that apes have arms and two feet, and can also use two feet to walk, and even have many similarities with us in terms of male and female matching. In fact, in many cases, we can increase our observation of the behavior of these animals, so as to reveal the nature of our own existence and many bizarre and strange phenomena! ”

The old patriarch glanced at Li Xianling, and then said:

"Then I'll hand over these two pairs of dog men and women to the adults, and ask the adults to send them down! It's just that in the past year, our village has been hit by many flash floods, resulting in at least a dozen deaths in the flash floods, these flash floods are very terrible, often with mudslides, just like that, flying sand and stones, I don't know when they appear behind several families, and then at a certain moment, remember that those families are all buried under dozens of meters of mud and sand, and even the bodies can not be found."

The old patriarch seemed very sad, and only listened to him continue:

"These mudslides have become the biggest natural disaster in our village, and our rice fields here are all small patches of farmland hidden deep in the mountains and old forests. It is really a pity for many of our farmers to abandon the tasteless food, and often people work hard all year round, and the food they get is only enough to barely meet the small food needs of their families. At present, because of the ravages of the mudslide disaster, the cultivated land in the village is at least six tenths of the deterioration, and we would like to ask the adults to be kind and give our village all or part of the tax reduction and exemption this year, as long as it can be reduced slightly, we are already very grateful! ”

Li Xianling listened, lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then said:

"Although there is a lack of formal prefectural ordinances in this county for the time being, the state government has asked me to temporarily serve as the prefectural magistrate of this county, which is the reason for accepting your two pairs of dog men and women. It's just that this tax is also a very sensitive place, after all, the collection of this painting is not up to me, a small Jiupin sesame petty official. If you want to reduce your taxes, why don't you talk to our governor, or maybe your lord agrees to you."
