Fish swimming around the world

Jiang Fan immediately understood that each of these people worked hard and achieved great results, and they did not want to rebel. They were no better than those three princes and four nobles who killed them whenever they wanted. Only in that way could they truly become tyrants.

"There must be someone behind the scenes." Jiang Fan thought for a moment.

The empress snorted, "This old thing...is really not a thing."

The two of them were eating and chatting. Jiang Fan finally understood what was going on and had a headache. No wonder the empress rarely came out to relax.

"If that's the case, it's really a bit difficult to handle..."

The empress snorted: "Let's wait and see. The fate of the three princes and the four princes is also shocking to him. I hope he will do nothing and live out his life in glory and wealth."

"This guy... is a really strange and troubled person..." Jiang Fan shook his head and chuckled.

The empress said: "He can't make a big difference, let alone affect the overall situation. You have a trump card in your hand. If you didn't have too many things on your hands right now, I would really like to leave this matter to you."

"You mean, Lord Shang's son?"

The empress nodded: "You used him to force Ding Lang to leave southern Xinjiang."

Jiang Fan said: "He is the best."

The empress said: "If this old thing really can't sit still, I want to borrow this person."

"What you said was originally given to me by you."

The empress said: "The best way to keep him."

"Shang Jun... is indeed worthy of respect." Jiang Fan also admired this hero who did not hesitate to bear the name of treason and keep the legal system alive.

The empress didn't take these things too seriously. After all, everything was under her nose. She turned around and started to evaluate the eight hundred flavors of dishes.

"It tastes too bad." The empress ate, but her words expressed a different evaluation than her actions.

In fact, Babaiwei is not that unpalatable. It can even be said that in this era, it is considered very good, and it is worthy of its name among the eight famous restaurants. But with whom to compare. In terms of techniques, it only relies on steaming, boiling, and cooking, and lacks seasoning. No matter how hard it is cooked, it cannot even catch up with the dabbler of later generations like Jiang Fan.

"It tastes terrible and you still eat so much." Jiang Fan was surprised.

"It's all food, everything has been done, it's a shame to waste it." The empress frowned.

Jiang Fan looked really funny: "So next time I'll eat at home. If that doesn't work, I might as well go to Lishan Night Market incognito."

The empress hummed: "You are very clever. During this private visit, you can indeed see many things that are different from what the officials described."

Jiang Fan said: "This is the real reason why you came out today. As for those things just now, they were just an excuse to show off to the court, to show off to the old ministers and make them think you were angry."

The empress snorted twice: "It's just you, let's not talk about this. You have a big appetite, eat all these."

Jiang Fan was dumbfounded when he saw it: "Twelve dishes?"

The empress wiped her mouth: "I know how much you want to eat. I just pinched my nose and went in."

"You know you have to hold your nose and eat it!" Jiang Fan said angrily.

"You asked for it yourself. I've already helped you a lot, so please."

Jiang Fan: "Alas..."

Taking a walk after a meal is a must. It doesn't mean that they are obsessed with body shape or that they pay attention to health. It's just that it's not easy for them to stroll around their own property in a relaxed manner, so they have to take a walk a lot.

Jiang Fan keenly discovered a problem. The Empress probably went out for a lot of time and was a little too familiar with Yangdu. There was nothing she didn't know about in the streets, alleys, and nooks and crannies. Even the Rouge Tower hidden in a private house was hers. clear.

"So, it's not that there are no brothels in Da Qin, so we can't do it openly?" Jiang Fan said thiefly.

The Empress seemed disdainful to comment on these matters.

On the other hand, Zhao Gao, who was carrying a bag beside him, smiled and said: "From a villain's point of view, although it is a humble industry, it has lasted for thousands of years. It has its own reasons. It is not a good idea to suppress it blindly, but it cannot be put on the table. Besides..."

He looked at the empress and saw that her expression was as usual before he smiled and said: "Besides, the Qin Dynasty has been fighting fiercely for many years and has been preparing for a long time. In the Yangdu area alone, there are no less than 200,000 soldiers and horses. It's okay for these big soldiers to be in the military camp. Once they take a rest, they will leave." Home is far away..."

Jiang Fan looked at this guy with strange eyes: "You know, there are quite a few..."

"Nowhere, no matter where...it's just nonsense."

Jiang Fan looked at the smiling expression on this guy's face, but he still didn't know that this guy was telling the truth, the truth that others couldn't tell.

"Oh...then the government also turns a blind eye?"

Zhao Gaodao: "It's not... Jiaofangsi or something, the government has it on record. Even our Daqin government benevolence, these... once these brothel women get pregnant, if they give birth to a boy, they can be exempted from slavery, and even have no control over their lives. There is some help for the suffering people, and they are all very kind..."

Jiang Fan was stunned and suddenly understood that this was Shengju. Where is the benevolence, it is clearly for the sake of population.

Just like the battle between Chu and Jin, Wei State had a population of 200,000, and Chu State had no idea how many young people moved from southern Shanxi.

Going further, during the period of the Eighteen Kings, ridiculous things happened. In a certain country, a large number of young men were killed in battle, and the city was filled with women and children. The king even issued a law, not only allowing men to marry dozens or hundreds of wives, but even Feel free to stay at the woman's home. In order to make ends meet, most of the women would accept anyone who came, especially if they got pregnant, they would be able to eat official food...

This kind of thing happens all the time in this chaotic era. Qin State, this is just a common practice that is basically adopted, and it is even far worse than other countries. At least the Qin State does not allow brothels to make a living.

However, Jiang Fan had known about the Qin brothels for a long time. Luan Feifei was in charge of the Jile Qin intelligence, and the brothels in the dark were already well known. Where there were brothels, there were Jile people. But Jiang Fan said that he had not paid much attention to Qin's attitude towards this matter.

After experiencing uninterrupted wars, Qin was able to rest and recuperate slightly in the past few years. However, since the four countries attacked Qin, the number of males in Qin has dropped by more than half, and the remaining young and strong are mostly in service. Most of the workers who work in the fields are the elderly, women and children...

Zhao Gao... This guy knows that the empress doesn't want to talk about this, but he hopes that Jiang Fan can know it. He is indeed a qualified lackey.

"Especially for farming. If you hadn't invented the curved plow, waterwheel, and plow cart, farming would be extremely difficult." The empress finally spoke.

Jiang Fan nodded with a heavy face. After a moment of silence, he suddenly thought of something.

"Now that we don't have a war, why don't we let these soldiers farm?"

The empress shook her head: "War can happen at any time."

Jiang Fan frowned and thought: "Training can't be interrupted, but it's impossible all the time... I remember there seemed to be a decree, a military farming system or something, saying... soldiers in wartime, civilians in leisure time..."

The empress was stunned: "What did you say?"

Jiang Fan's casual words were really picked up and shaken off by her again, until they were all shaken off.

After figuring out what was going on, she stared at Jiang Fan with burning eyes and found that this guy was a treasure that could not be emptied. Whatever he did, he could always come up with some amazing ideas, and almost all of them were feasible.
