back to ancient times to be emperor

Chapter 235
What Lu Chengqi was most afraid of was the person who was familiar with the hapless ghost who occupied this body.Honorable Empress Dowager Liu happened to be such a person.

The reborn Lu Chengqi is completely different from the previous unlucky ghost in every aspect.Just using the loss of soul disease as an excuse, I'm afraid it can't justify itself.

Hearing this, Lu Chengqi, who seldom talked when he entered the Jingfu Palace, still felt the impact of Zhou Zhiruo's departure, as if he had lost his backing, he didn't know what to say for a while.After thinking about it for a long time, I said cautiously: "I feel much better, and Madam Lao is concerned."

When Mrs. Liu heard the words, she sighed quietly, and said: "My son really suffered from the disease of losing his soul. Before my son, where did I call my old mother a concubine? They were all called concubines by mother and concubine. Now... oh, but my son After a serious illness, I can be regarded as much shrewd and capable, the old man is very relieved, the late emperor and sister finally have successors..."

Lu Chengqi sat there awkwardly, quickly took a sip of tea to hide his panic.Zhou Zhiruo also taught this "Mother" name, before Lu Chengqi didn't know how to call this empress dowager.

The title of Dashun is not the same as the history that Lu Chengqi is familiar with, but it is similar to the Song Dynasty in the official history.If the late emperor was still there, Lu Chengqi would not call the late emperor his father like in the court dramas of the Celestial Dynasty, but just like ordinary people, he would also call him daddy.

As for the aunt (queen), it is called the empress, and if it is born by a concubine or concubine, there are those who call the biological mother a sister.As for the previous, this unlucky ghost called Liu's mother concubine, which actually meant concubine concubine, with a bit of derogatory connotation. I don't know how many times he was reprimanded by Emperor Yuanshou.However, that unlucky ghost decided that Mrs. Liu was the murderer who killed his biological mother, the Queen Mother Zhang Xian, and he has always refused to accept discipline.Teenagers are in the period of rebellion, so that they cause later tragedies and die by themselves.

Fortunately, that unlucky ghost died, otherwise Lu Chengqi would be a lonely soul, and he didn't know where he was going, and there would be another confused emperor in the Dashun Dynasty, and even the power would fall in the hands of powerful officials. staged again.

When Lu Chengqi was thinking about how to speak, he heard Mrs. Liu say to himself: "After my son recovered from his serious illness, it was like a different person. Even the state affairs that he had never been interested in were handled in an orderly manner. Old man In my eyes, how can I not be happy? Even if my son neglected my old body, I would not complain. When the first emperor was around, he was not as diligent as my son! From my point of view, this is the capital of a wise king! "

When talking happily, Liu's eyebrows stretched, and she was almost dancing.Lu Chengqi smirked and said, "I'm not young anymore, it's time to do something for the common people..."

Liu looked happily at Lu Chengqi, who was completely different from the rebellious and thin one before, and was very relieved, feeling that at this moment, Lu Chengqi had the feeling of being a mature and stable emperor.Hearing what Lu Chengqi said again, he said with great joy: "My son can think so, and I feel at ease. My son defeated Yang Xianggong's faction earlier, and my old body is still worried about my son, whether I can support it or not. Such a big imperial court. Now it seems that the old man underestimated my son. My son's qualifications are comparable to Wenzong. Not only did he defeat the Khitans, but he also forced the Khitans to sign an agreement. This is something that the previous emperors never did. !"

Hearing Liu's praise, Lu Chengqi couldn't help but feel his face heat up, and he had the illusion that as a primary school student, he was being praised by the teacher.Na Na said: "It's all the service of the three armies, I didn't do anything..."

Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "My son is humble. I am the son of the Han family. In fact, I am not inferior to any Khitan people. The most reassuring thing for me is not that my son has won the battle, but that my son has personally cultivated the Southern Royal Garden. When the late emperor was here, the most Paying attention to agriculture and mulberry, it is often said that Dashun builds the country with agriculture. Farming is related to the foundation of Dashun for thousands of years, and it cannot be neglected. Since my son took office, tax reduction and exemption, and persuasion of farming and mulberry, this is an act of benefiting tens of thousands of people in Dashun! "

For this praise, Lu Chengqi was still very happy to accept it.But his vision is not limited to the one-third of an acre of land?With the increasing population of Dashun, the acquisition of cultivated land is becoming more and more serious, and it is imminent to break the barriers of the small-scale peasant economy.Otherwise, Dashun will also step into the historical cycle. After the farmers have no arable land and cannot meet their food and clothing, an uprising will break out, and then the world will change another dynasty, change the surname and continue to be the emperor, and then continue this historical cycle.

The reduction or exemption of agricultural taxes can only be realized when the economy develops to the point that it does not require too much agricultural payment.Otherwise, reducing or exempting farmers' taxes is nothing more than changing the name and continuing to exploit farmers.However, Mrs. Liu couldn't see this either, thinking that Lu Chengqi had finally "got back on track" and stopped engaging in those scandalous businesses.

Lu Chengqi thought about it for a while, and said: "What your mother said is nothing more than what I should do. Food is the most important thing for the people, and no matter how small the farming is, it is still a big deal."

Hearing Lu Chengqi's "ideological enlightenment", Empress Dowager Liu narrowed her eyes with a smile, and said, "It's a miracle that my son is so enlightened after a serious illness!"

Lu Chengqi finally relaxed, knowing that Liu's suspicions were gone, he smiled and did not speak.Mrs. Liu continued: "The former emperor was busy with government affairs, so he had no time to discipline my son, so I entrusted the Taishi, Taifu, and Taibao to discipline me. Now that I think about it, where did these Taishi, Taifu, and Taibao really teach my son? That old man Yang Daoqi is the one who has the most evil intentions. Fortunately, my son is talented and intelligent, so he can win the fight against this old man. My son is also impeccable in everything he does, and knows how to respect his teacher. Although Yang Daoqi has selfish intentions, he is still my son's teacher. No. My son must remember, if you want the Lu family to last forever, the power must not fall into the hands of the courtiers!"

Although the Liu family is a family of women and Taoists, none of the members of the Tian family are vegetarians, and they have a natural sense of authority.Lu Chengqi couldn't help sighing, if it wasn't for the thousand years of experience, maybe he really couldn't beat these ancients.At that moment, Lu Chengqi repeatedly nodded and said that he was taught, which made Liu's addiction to being a teacher.

Mrs. Liu sighed quietly and said, "Zhiruo has a thick skin, and the old man has said many times before that only by giving birth to an emperor's son as soon as possible can the country be stable. My son is a man, and this matter must be kept in mind. If Zhiruo If you can't bear children, you need to accept concubines and concubines this morning. You can't be like the first emperor. There are only two empresses and concubines, and they almost cut off the incense of the Lu family. There are three unfilial acts, and having no descendants is the biggest. It's not unusual not to visit my old body, and it's the right way to give birth to Lin'er as soon as possible!"

No wonder Mrs. Liu was in such a hurry. The life expectancy of ancient people was only five or sixty years old, and those over seventy were considered very long.Life is too short, if there are no descendants, there will be no face to face the ancestors under the nine springs!What's more, if he is the king of a country, if he has no offspring, Dashun might be messed up if Lu Chengqi has something like wax gourd and tofu.

Naturally, Lu Chengqi also knew the pros and cons of this matter, but as a reborn him, it was very difficult for him to do anything to a 16-year-old girl.Early birth and early childbearing are not only harmful to the baby, but also have a great impact on the mother.In ancient times, so many dystocias were inseparable from early birth and early childbearing.Isn't Lu Chengqi's body also the one that the Empress Dowager Zhang Xian was born and survived at the age of 25?
Lu Chengqi, who has more than a thousand years of common sense of hygiene, naturally wouldn't put his own woman in danger so easily, especially in ancient times when the medical and sanitary conditions were so backward, if one had a difficult delivery, Lu Chengqi wouldn't even have the place to cry!
