Wen Tiren and Guo Yunhou bowed together and said, "Your Majesty, please give me instructions."

Emperor Chongzhen hummed and said: "From now on, women in the folks who are pregnant must report to the government. Regardless of whether they give birth to a boy or a girl, they will be counted as meritorious service and rewarded. It is appropriate that they can raise their children until they are 16 years old. In the county schools, those who enter school from the age of seven to under sixteen will not be charged a penny, but will be given meals instead.

If the child is not reported or drowned, it will be considered as a crime of omission and fined. "

Wen Tiren hadn't spoken yet, but Guo Yunhou said in pain: "Your Majesty Qizuo, the world has been at peace for a long time now, if every household rewards them, even if each family rewards one or two taels of silver, it will cost tens of millions of taels a year. Where did this much money come from?"

Emperor Chongzhen said: "I have my own way, Aiqing can rest assured to discuss with Wen Aiqing."

Emperor Chongzhen's plan is very simple, no money?Isn't there a feudal king?Aren't there local tyrants in Jiangnan?

At that time, we will have a wave of autumn wind first.

Besides, I am a dignified traveler, and I am a waste that can't make anything. Didn't I work with Xu Guangqi to figure out the method of using saltpeter to make ice?

At that time, I will think of more ways to get some other good things. Just collecting taxes and the like is enough to make me happy.

Besides, don't you have to fight in the future? If you don't grab things in a war, you'll be a fart!Therefore, Emperor Chongzhen was not always worried about silver.

Emperor Chongzhen thought about it for a while, and simply added another one: "From tomorrow onwards, anyone who drowns a baby girl will not be allowed to take the imperial examination."

Chapter 263 The Great Ming Princess (4-word first update)

This request made both Wen Tiren and Guo Yunbai extremely painful.

In fact, from Wen Tiren's point of view, what Emperor Chongzhen thought was simpler.

Who are those who don't?

Most of them must not be able to support children.If you can't even afford to support children, how many can still read?In addition, there is no place to relax at night, even if there are brothels and Chu pavilions, how can ordinary people afford to go there?

As for those scholars and Juren lords, their mouths are full of oil just because they are effective, and they need to drown their own children?

With such a request made by Emperor Chongzhen, those who can basically get stuck are those who have just been able to study but have not yet achieved fame-it means that in the end, it is those muddy legs that get stuck.

What is even more painful is the matter that Emperor Chongzhen brought up with a slap in the head just now, about how Daming gave the people of Daming who gave birth to child support money.

Although Emperor Chongzhen told Guo Yunhou not to worry after Guo Yunhou had made it clear that the treasury might not be able to support it, in fact, in Wen Tiren's view, this was simply nonsense.

In fact, if you think about it, it becomes clear that Emperor Chongzhen's so-called not worrying about money is nothing more than planning to copy wealthy businessmen or start from the vassal princes. Judging from what Emperor Chongzhen has done in the past, the possibility of this situation is almost impossible. Ten out of ten.

But it can't be done like this.

How many rich merchants are there in Ming Dynasty?I have to admit that there are quite a lot, but if you are short of money, you will slaughter one, and if you are short of money, you will slaughter another. How many businessmen can afford to be so plucked?

When the wool is almost gone, will anyone go into business?

As for the wool of the Daming vassal kings, just a Fu Wang can make these vassal kings feel scared. If they are squeezed harder, the fool will stay in Daming, and it would be great to be replaced by overseas fiefdoms to become the emperor of the land-such a thing Come, it fulfilled Emperor Chongzhen's idea of ​​replacing the feudal vassal.

As for the new vassal kings that will appear in the future, basically one of them counts as one, and they are all the flesh and blood of Emperor Chongzhen himself. At that time, Emperor Chongzhen will not treat King Fu as much as the old emperor Wanli. Do you have to pluck the wool by hand?

Anyway, Wen Tiren didn't believe that Emperor Chongzhen would pluck his children's wool.

It was precisely because of this that Wen Tiren felt extremely painful about the request made by Emperor Chongzhen - of course, he didn't know the word "egg pain".But he knows the feeling.

It's just that Emperor Chongzhen is in high spirits right now, and Emperor Chongzhen is also concerned about the empress in Kunning Palace, so Wen Tiren wisely didn't raise any objection—after the child is born, everything is stable and then slowly Admonish it.

After making up his mind, Wen Tiren just bowed and said: "Your Majesty, after discussing with Lord Shi and Guo Shangshu, I will write a letter to Your Majesty."

Emperor Chongzhen just hummed, but then continued to order: "I have one more matter that I want Guo Aiqing to handle, and the factory guards will also give Guo Aiqing some convenience."

Just hearing the word "factory guard", Guo Yunhou instinctively felt that the errand given by Emperor Chongzhen would definitely not be a good thing - but if it involves factory guard, what the hell is good?

Emperor Chongzhen didn't seem to feel Guo Yunhou's entanglement, and directly ordered: "Going back, Guo Aiqing asked people to make statistics in and around the capital, at what age folk women married, at what age they gave birth, at different ages, how many women are Dystocia, and how many people died because of it.”

Wen Tiren's heart was moved when he heard the words, and he said first: "Your Majesty asked Guo Shangshu to count this. Could it be that he has some opinion on the marriage age among the people?"

Emperor Chongzhen gave a hum, but looked at the courtyard of the imperial hospital next to him, and said: "I still remember that when I was thirteen or fourteen, I often ate a lot, but my body only grew a head, and I didn't see any flesh. It can be seen from this that the enlightenment of the Thirteenth Fourteenth is still the time to grow the body.

When I get older, at my age, no matter how much I eat, I don't see my head growing, only my flesh.

Therefore, I think that let alone a woman, it is a man. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, the bones of the body have not yet grown strong.From this point of view, if you marry and have children when you are young, your body will not grow strong, but it will not be beautiful. "

The imperial physician of the Taiyuan Hospital was looking at each other, Wu Zijing, the imperial physician of the Yin Department, spoke first: "I think what your Majesty said is very reasonable.

Before I entered the imperial hospital, I also practiced medicine in the private sector for many years, so I have seen a lot of what your Majesty said.

Women who give birth at the age of [-] or [-] will have dystocia in [-] out of [-]. If a woman is [-] or [-] years old, the incidence of dystocia is less than that of [-] or [-] years old, and if it is older, it will be even less.

It is much easier to wait until you have given birth once, regardless of your age.However, those who are often young are rarely able to give birth to children for the second time, and many thirteen or fourteen-year-old mothers even die due to dystocia. "

Emperor Chongzhen hummed, and was about to continue talking, but he heard the screams of the empress in Kunning Palace no longer low as before, but louder than before. Can hear clearly.

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't sit still anymore, let alone care about the imperial physician who was not good at treating him, so he stood up with a bang, and took two steps towards the queen's bedroom.

This time, there was no Hakka family to stop the emperor, but Wen Tiren bent down to block Emperor Chongzhen, intentionally or unintentionally, preventing Emperor Chongzhen from walking towards Kunning Palace.

Emperor Chongzhen also woke up from the tension just now, but stopped walking towards Kunning Palace.

Now in this situation, no matter how anxious I am, I can have a fart.

Among other things, just the midwives who are delivering babies in the hall, plus the nurses and maids waiting outside, and the imperial doctors who are waiting, which one can be called the top in Ming Dynasty?

In case of any dystocia situation, can I have a better solution than the imperial doctor?

Fortunately, in my previous life, I remembered that Empress Zhou was finally bestowed to death by Emperor Chongzhen, and gave birth to several children for Emperor Chongzhen, which means that Empress Zhou did not die of dystocia.

It's just that when he thought of the imperial doctor, Emperor Chongzhen's face turned gloomy.The death of Emperor Taichang and Tianqi carpenter was unclear, and Tianqi's daughter-in-law Zhang Yan had a miscarriage. How could Emperor Chongzhen dare to trust these imperial doctors who were supposed to serve the royal family?

Emperor Chongzhen gritted his teeth secretly. If any of these grandsons dared to play tricks at this time, let alone hanging on the Meridian Gate to accompany Huang Liji, the nine clans would all fucking kill him!

Fortunately, the situation that Emperor Chongzhen was most worried about did not materialize.

Following the scream of Empress Zhou, there was a slight cry from the bedroom.

I finally had my first child in this world!

At this time, Emperor Chongzhen didn't say that folk women were married or not, but even the Jiannu in Shaanxi and Liaodong were left behind. lost his whole mind.

Seeing that Wen Tiren retreated a few steps to the side knowingly, Emperor Chongzhen strode towards Kunning Palace, but happened to see Mrs. Ke coming out with something like a tightly wrapped small package in his arms.

Emperor Chongzhen knew that this was the child born to him by Empress Zhou, but he didn't know if it was a boy or a girl, so he walked faster now.

Seeing the Emperor Chongzhen striding towards him, Ke Shi walked two steps cautiously to the front and back of the Emperor Chongzhen, then bowed slightly and said: "Your Majesty, the empress gave birth to a princess for your majesty, and my servants congratulate you, congratulate your majesty. "

Emperor Chongzhen was very happy at this time, so he repeatedly ordered Wang Chengen: "Go and order the imperial dining room to prepare more food. There are all here today. The Ke family has done a good job in taking care of the queen, and reward a pair of pearls."

Wang Chengen was also happy for Emperor Chongzhen in his heart, and after hearing what he said, he turned around and went to the imperial dining room to give instructions.
