"Sima Xiangru, will you have a creative bottleneck when you write fu? You just can't write articles and your thoughts are exhausted."

Liu Che expressed curiosity about whether these talented men who were famous for writing Han Fu also faced the same problems as modern people, or had outstanding talents and knowledge, and they didn't have to consider the bottleneck of creation at all.

It seemed a little surprised. Sima Xiangru showed a confused expression on his face. He turned his head and said calmly: "Whether it is a great scholar or a minority, this will happen. However, as long as you take a few days off, you will recover. Just go back and think about it."

Nothing different...

It seems that most people think that people's hearts are not old and they have some nonsense. They put their dissatisfaction with reality in comparison and praise everything in ancient times to show their arrogance, but in fact, it is obviously not what they think.

The human heart is still the same human heart,

It's just,

Put the moon in my hometown,

It's just a different way of expression...

Pulling Sima Xiangru aside, Liu Che smiled and said, "Do you know your father-in-law, Zhuo Wangsun?"

"Your Majesty, what are you asking about this?"

After touching the shallow and short beard on his chin and tapping the chair with his right hand, Liu Che replied lightly: "I want to select some local merchants with wealthy families and give them some things that benefit the country and the people.

Therefore, we must find some benevolent and righteous businessmen who are rich and humble, have the style of Tao Zhugong, care about national affairs, and do not take profit first.

With your understanding of Zhuo Wangsun, you will definitely be better than me. Asking him about him is just for the sake of major issues in governing the country. You don’t need to be too careful, just give a comment from the bottom of your heart!”

"When I talk about my father-in-law, apart from sticking to my family business and being rigid, there seems to be no unjust actions. He has contacts with the county magistrate Wang Jiduo, which is also respectful and polite. He has a lot of insights into merchants, keeps his own affairs in peace, and accumulates wealth.

In addition to not giving back to the countryside and benefiting the people, his character is still remarkable." Sima Xiangru knew Liu Che's power and would not be careless, so he said it out loud.

Nodded, Liu Che pursed his lips and smiled, "Sima Xiangru, you did not disappoint me. Although I advocated that you should not avoid relatives, you should still know your character. What you said is not very different from what I found, and you have no intention of fooling me, so I am very comforted!"

"Eat the king's fortune, be loyal to the king!"

"Okay, don't say these official words to me. I don't want to hear them at all. I will know what the ministers do. Just make them for me to show them. Facts are better than words!" Liu Che shrugged.

I can't hold it in a bit anymore,

All day long, Han Yan looked expressionless, which made people feel upset and impatient. Liu Che patted his shoulder and said helplessly: "What's wrong with you? Who has provoked you? You show me your face. Don't you think it's not elegant?"

"I didn't show my face to your Majesty..."

Liu Che hummed, "Then tell your story!"

"A few days ago, I passed by the palace gate and saw a woman crying and crying not far from the corner of the wall, which made me feel very uncomfortable when I heard it. What a tragic experience that made me feel so sad and moaning.

After inquiring, I found out that the woman had three children but died before she was born. She finally gave birth to a son in recent years. Unexpectedly, she fell asleep forever a few days ago in the winter night...

She was really unable to withstand such a blow. After burying her son outside the city, on the way back, she passed the palace gate and was exhausted, and she saw what I saw."

Liu Che was silent,

Then I went out to the palace,

I want to know why this kind of thing happens among the people.

After inquiring, Liu Che realized that in ancient times, the terrible rate of labor was actually a terrible percentage of 30 to 40. With various reasons, almost every child was a hardship...

First of all, due to conditions, ancient surrogate women were prone to life due to difficult labor or severe postpartum bleeding, and their lives were lost.

But unfortunately, this was not exchanged for more pity at that time, but was regarded as a "blood disaster". Therefore, it is "unclean" for pregnant women to give birth, and giving birth at home is a big taboo! It is even more luxurious to accompany the husband to give birth.

Therefore, from the Qin and Han Dynasties to the Qing Dynasty, people often set up a straw shed to make a delivery room ("Sheqiu Tomb" and "Ludao") on the tombs or roads). The words you picked up from the roadside or popped out of a stone are not without traces, but are real and sincere. They have experienced it personally and have been passed down from ancient times.

When he returned to the palace, Liu Che wanted to issue an edict to rebuke these bad habits, but he knew that this would be of no use at all. People in the world would not obey such edicts that betray the inheritance, and would only be disgusted and cause chaos.

In the end, he only issued an emergency order, which was to summon Prime Minister Wei Wan and wanted to deal with the fertility issue first.

The atmosphere in the hall was obviously a bit depressing. Wei Wan, who stepped into the hall gate, noticed something unusual. He saw Liu Che's face turned pale and said carefully: "I don't know what happened to you when you ask me to discuss it. I will definitely be confused and do my best to relieve your worries!"

"Hmph, relieve your worries? You can't solve my worries. I have to do my best!" After a pause, Liu Che said again: "What is the content of the fertility order of the court? The Prime Minister will answer it for me!"

Wei Wan did not hesitate and immediately replied: "In the early years of Jian Dynasty, Emperor Gaozu ordered that women over 15 years old should pay 120 yuan in taxes if they did not marry. With this order, poor families in their families quickly married their daughters, and the population will be greatly increased in the next few years.

After Emperor Gaozu, in order to further promote population growth, Emperor Wen directly increased the tax to 600 yuan."

Liu Che knew very well that 600 yuan was enough for an ordinary family to make a living for a year. Although this strategy completely solved the population problem of the Han Dynasty, it also reduced women to a tool for having children. Although it was a battle against the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Chu and Han Dynasty, and the helpless actions, Liu Che still didn't understand.

"This decree should be abolished!"

"Your Majesty, this matter must be discussed by the court..."

It was Liu Chexin who made the exclamation sound again, "I have the final say in this matter!"

"What law will Your Majesty impose?" Wei Wan said with a wry smile.

"During the Warring States Period, King Goujian of Yue used land to attract the population and rewarded pregnant women who gave birth to children. The population grew rapidly. Why can't I follow his example and praise women for having children and reward those pregnant women?

To maintain population growth with harsh policies is ultimately a treatment of symptoms but not the root cause. People must truly appreciate the benefits, so that they can only accept the innocence of nurturing more children in their hearts!” Liu Che said slowly.

Wei Wan sighed and said, "How much money does this cost!"

"This is not simple. The government orders can be changed. Isn't it enough to change the strength of the reward according to time?" Liu Che glanced at him and explained.

This is a decision! I know that I can't persuade you anymore, Wei Wan replied: "Since your Majesty has already thought about it, I won't talk much anymore..."

"Okay, you go back first. I'm going to write an edict. I can report it to the world tomorrow!"

So fast? Wei Wan found that since she followed the new emperor, her slow temperament was forced to change. At this speed, they were ministers and had no time to react.

But he said it in advance,

This is the most sultry...
