Chapter 190; Science
"I thought carefully about this method last night."
"Although the risk is very high, severe cases still need strong medicine, so I think I can give it a try."
Emperor Zhaowu pondered, and kept chanting in his heart what Huo Junyao said, you can't be cowardly, whoever instigates you will lose.
This sentence touched him very much, and over the years, he and Emperor Taishang have chosen to tolerate the affairs of the scholars.
In the spirit of the Yu Dynasty's stability, but what about the actual situation?
Yu Chao seems to be stable on the surface, but there is already a lot of trouble inside.
It can even be said that a little bit of lesions have begun to appear, if you continue to endure like this, sooner or later you will become terminally ill, and what will be the fate of the Yu Dynasty at that time?
"I still need to think about this matter, so let's do it for now."
The risk is very high, and if you don't get it right, the court will be turbulent, although you think it makes sense and want to do it, but Emperor Zhaowu also has to think carefully.
Subsequently, the two went out of the imperial study together and went to Da'an Palace instead.
At this time, in the Da'an Palace, the eldest princess of Ningyang was chatting with the emperor, and Huo Junyao was also sitting on the side drinking tea and reading books with nothing to do.
They came early, and none of the people invited this time had yet to arrive.
"Yaoyao girl, did you see your cousin yesterday? What do you think of him? ”
was suddenly asked by the Emperor Taishang, Huo Junyao was a little confused.
"That's good."
She met and didn't say a few words, what could she think?
But since the old man asked, she could only rely on the only impression she had to answer.
"Father, what do you mean by that?"
The eldest princess of Ningyang on the side frowned slightly, why did she feel that something was not quite right when she heard this?
King Qin seems to be twenty-three years old this year, and he hasn't gotten married yet, isn't the old man thinking.
"What else could it mean? I think Yaoyao is almost over. ”
At this point, the eldest princess of Ningyang and Huo Junyao didn't know what he meant.
"No, I don't agree."
The eldest princess of Ningyang directly refused.
She still remembers the events of the last time, how much loss did her daughter suffer that time?
Although she has a good relationship with King Qin's aunt and nephew, and she is willing to believe that King Qin will not be foolish like the crown prince, King Qin's identity is embarrassing, and it is not easy to stay in the fiefdom and come back all these years.
If this girl follows King Qin, won't she be able to come back in the future?
How long has it been since she got her daughter back? How can you give it?
Of course, reluctance is one thing, but more often than not, she has now found that her daughter is a very assertive person, and she doesn't want to sway her thoughts because of some of her own ideas.
She was already wrong about the prince last time, but she didn't want to come back a second time.
As soon as the Emperor heard Ning Yang's refusal, he just wanted to say something, but Huo Junyao on the side spoke first; "Grandpa, this can't be done."
"I've also heard a lot of things about King Qin's cousin, it's really good, but he's my cousin, and I can't get married to him, so don't hurt the two of us."
"How do you talk, girl? How can the old man harm you? ”
The Emperor Taishang was a little depressed.
To be honest, he likes Huo Junyao's granddaughter very much, and he also likes King Qin very much, and really hopes that the two of them can come together.
"Don't believe it, I'll tell you something."
Subsequently, she began to popularize the disadvantages of marriage between close relatives, and talked a lot, which made the Emperor Taishang and the eldest princess of Ningyang stunned.
"Yaoyao, what kind of close relatives are really so terrible to marry?"
This is the first time I have heard of such a statement, the ancients preferred to kiss each other, and cousins and cousins are married like this abound.
It has been like this for many years, and I haven't heard of any problems, but at this time, when I heard Huo Junyao's statement, the eldest princess of Ningyang still didn't believe it somewhat.
"Of course it's terrible, mother, grandfather, if you don't believe it, let someone investigate."
"Each chooses a hundred households, or five hundred, one side is a close relative marriage, that is, a cousin and cousin, and the other party is not related."
"Check it out, some of the circumstances after they got married, and some of the circumstances of their descendants."
The Emperor Taishang on the side heard her say this, and he was a little hesitant in his heart.
"Okay, Duan Li, you go and arrange someone to investigate in the capital, you don't have to be too detailed, give the old man the results as soon as possible."
The chief manager, Duan Li, hurriedly retreated.
As soon as he arrived at the door, he met Emperor Zhaowu and Huo Jingzhi, who came over.
When the two of them heard this, they were also quite surprised, and immediately Emperor Zhaowu ordered Duan Li to arrange more people to investigate.
Then the two of them entered Da'an Palace and talked about it.
Huo Junyao also gave the two of them popular science again.
"That's why when I heard that I was going to talk about a marriage contract with the prince, I immediately thought about refusing, which really can't be the case."
"Even if it's okay to get married, it will have a great impact on future generations, and it is easy to give birth to a disabled child, or a stillbirth, or infertility or something."
Emperor Zhaowu and Huo Jingzhi's faces immediately became a little solemn.
Population has always been a major issue for a country, and the Yu Dynasty has been working hard in this area for more than 20 years since its founding.
If Huo Junyao's statement at this time is true, then this matter really can't continue, think about how many such close marriages have been made in the entire Yu Dynasty this year, and how many children have been directly stifled?
A few people then talked a lot about the topic.
And the people who came to the banquet this time also arrived one after another.
The King of Qin arrived first, followed by Empress Shen and the crown prince, then the King of Qi and his wife with Xiao Shizi, and then the King of Chu and his wife.
After several people arrived, they heard everyone talk about the marriage of close relatives, and they were also quite curious.
After some inquiry, the faces of the King of Chu and his wife immediately became a little unpleasant.
There is no other reason, because the wife of the king of Chu is the niece of the mother and concubine of the king of Chu, and the two are also cousins.
The two have been married for three or four years, and their relationship is very good, but they have never come out.
Over the years, the two of them have sought medical advice in private because of this matter.
Unexpectedly, the situation actually appeared on the marriage of this close relative, the two glanced at each other, and it was Princess Chu who spoke first.
"Lord Zhaode, you said that it is really possible for this close relatives to be infertile?"
As soon as these words came out, Emperor Zhaowu and the others reacted immediately, and their eyes were a little wrong when they looked at the King of Chu and his wife.
"There is such a possibility, if both men and women have no problems, but they have not been able to conceive, it should indeed be because of the marriage of close relatives."
"And this consanguineous marriage will not only make it difficult to conceive, but also easily have deformed and disabled children, such as poor intelligence and so on."
As her words fell, Princess Chu on the opposite side turned pale.
Seeing her like this, Huo Junyao was also stunned, and turned her head to look at her mother suspiciously.
