146 Lift away the clouds and see the blue sky39
"Tiger girl, in fact, you have a better choice." Huo Ran picked up the tiger girl with both hands and sat down on the chair.
Hu Niu's eyes suddenly dimmed: "Once the sea was difficult to water, except for Wushan, it is not a cloud." I don't want anything else except Brother Qin. β
Huo Ran remembered that Qin Lang also felt a pain in his heart: "When you regret it in the future, just tell me, and I will arrange your departure." β
"Thank you, Shizi!" Tiger Girl thanked gratefully and did not refute.
Two days passed quickly, and Huo Ran held his own wedding for the first time, with only one word, that is, "tired".
As the actual owner of Xingcheng, no one dared to come to Huo Ran's cave room, so Huo Ran was able to go back to the room to rest.
"I'll just do it myself." Huo Ran waved away the hand that Hu Niu wanted to help, untied his robe by himself, and hung it on the hanger.
"It's a bit too much to drink." Huo Ran patted his groggy head, hugged the pillow and the thin quilt and was about to go to the couch to rest.
Hu Niu nervously shouted Huo Ran: "Lord Wang, you are the master, how can you go outside?" I'll go for it. β
"Tiger girl, I said you would be my sister from now on. It is a matter of course for an older brother to take care of his younger sister. Huo Ran turned around and looked at the tiger girl with a smile: "Hurry up and sleep, you have to get up early tomorrow." β
"Lord Wang, little masterβ" Hu Niu was a little worried.
"Xuan'er has a servant to take care of there, don't worry, we can take Xuan'er back in a year. Go to sleep! Huo Ran turned around and walked out of the inner room.
The tiger girl lies alone in bed and has trouble sleeping.
She never thought that she would marry the noble prince, except for Qin Lang, she never thought that her husband was another man, but Qin Lang was gone, and before she became worthy of Qin Lang, she left herself on the battlefield forever.
"Brother Qin, the prince is a good person, you don't have to worry about me." The tiger girl turned around and wiped away her tears, and gradually sank into sleep.
For Huo Ran, this marriage is to declare adulthood and give Xuan'er a legitimate identity.
Sure enough, Jin Qian made Huo Ran the king of Xing, and it was not in vain that he had such a hard day!
The biggest constraint of Xingcheng is that it is located on the border and has a sparse population. In order to solve this problem, Huo Ran thought of a lot of countermeasures, and a year later, when the time was ripe, it began to be officially implemented.
"The king has an order, and the people are the foundation of the city."
"My lord, what did King Xing say?" The honest middle-aged man asked the official next to the notice.
The petty official patiently explained: "King Xing said that after today, anyone who gives birth to a child, whether male or female, starting from the second child, will be rewarded with one stone of grain per year, and will be exempted from forced labor for one year."
"How is this, this, this possible? King Xing can't have too much food, right? And exempt from forced labor! The middle-aged man's voice trembled, that was a hundred catties of grain!
There is a meeting of the people who agree: "This proclamation cannot be wrong!" How many people are there in Xingcheng? β
"Fellow villagers, there is another point, that is, neither man nor woman should marry earlier than fifteen, unless there are special circumstances." The petty official said loudly: "You must know that only when your parents are healthy can you give birth to a healthy child, you must obey King Xing's orders!" If there is an early marriage, anyone who reports it can be exempted from forced labor for three years! And the person who is reported, even if he gives birth again, there will be no reward. β
Although the people were not very happy, they still obeyed Huo Ran's order for the sake of those grains and exemption from forced labor.
Even if there is a violation of it, it will always be exposed by others, and gradually it has become customary to get married at the age of fifteen.
At the same time, this small Xingcheng city established ten academies, and in the countryside there was also one academy in every village.
Huo Ran is familiar with this set, after all, he has been a queen for many years.
Twelve years have flown by.
"Xiao Shizi, you run slowly." The maid hurriedly followed behind Ming Xuan.
"Father is waiting for me!" Mingxuan shouted as he ran.
"Father-" Ming Xuan pushed open the door of Huo Ran's room.
"Ahem, Xuan'er, what about your politeness?" Huo Ran looked at Ming Xuan seriously.
Ming Xuan exited the room aggrievedly in Huo Ran's sharp eyes, knocked on the door, and asked softly, "Father, can I come in?" β
"Come in!" Huo Ran's tone was soft.
"Father, are you feeling better?" Ming Xuan threw himself on Huo Ran's bedside, his big eyes almost crying with worry.
Huo Ran exhaled lightly and touched Mingxuan's forehead: "Xuan'er, you are fourteen years old, and Xingcheng returned to my hands when my father was fourteen years old." Now that the Father has given it to you, do you have the confidence to let it continue to prosper? β
"Yes!" Ming Xuan clenched his fists and shouted loudly.
"That's good." Huo Ran looked at the maids in the room: "All retreat." β
"Yes." The maids whispered softly.
There was a "squeak" and the door shut.
Huo Ran patted the bed and motioned for Mingxuan to sit there: "Xuan'er, you are not a child anymore, you must also know that your father's time is running out." β
Ming Xuan looked at Huo Ran's pale and thin cheeks, although his eyes were still sharp, but he couldn't hide his sick face, and his tears finally couldn't help it, and he flowed down: "Father, don't leave Xuan'er." β
"Xuan'er, no one can resist birth, old age, sickness and death. In my father's life, there is a prosperous city, and I am very satisfied with you. Huo Ran smiled lovingly, this child was not at all like his own mother's selfishness, but was lenient and self-disciplined.
"From now on, you will be the king of Xing. Remember, listen and watch, and don't be ashamed to speak up just because your identity has changed. Your mother, General Guan, is a trustworthy person. Huo Ran instructed carefully.
"I remember my father." Ming Xuan nodded desperately.
"That's good, it's a pity that your mother is not in Xingcheng, I'm afraid I won't be able to see each other." Huo Ran thought of the tiger girl who had been with him for so long, and was a little reluctant: "Xuan'er, you are a child of the Ming family, don't be gullible no matter what you hear in the future, ask your mother more." Your mother has paid a lot for you, and you must respect her in the future. β
"Yes, Father. I will respect my mother. Ming Xuan was puzzled, but he also knew that his father didn't want to say it, so he didn't ask anymore, his mother would always tell him, right?
"Alright, you go out!" Huo Ran finished explaining the matter and began to drive people away.
Ming Xuan refused: "Father, let Xuan'er accompany you!" β
"Get out! Xuan'er, my father doesn't want you to watch your father die. Huo Ran reluctantly spoke.
Ming Xuan reluctantly walked out of the room.
Huo Ran lay on the bed, quietly waiting for the last moment.
"Huo Ran, are you ready?" A cold voice suddenly sounded.
Huo Ran silently thought in his heart: "Okay, let's go!" β
"Okay, don't resist, I'll take you away." Huo Ran felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier-
"Hahaha! Finally got it! An arrogant voice suddenly sounded, and Huo Ran opened his eyes suddenly!
