Xue Lingyun said: "As long as Your Majesty doesn't dislike the concubine, that's fine. The reason why I asked to enter the palace is also to serve the country."

"How do you say that?"

"Your Majesty knows that the father of this concubine is Xue Ye, the head of the pavilion in Feng Township. However, even though I am the daughter of the pavilion chief, I was always hungry when I was young, let alone study. I don't know about this matter. Does His Majesty believe it or not?"

"I believe it."

The head of the pavilion, probably equivalent to the village head of later generations, has a better life than ordinary people.

The pavilion chief's daughter has absolutely no possibility of studying.

Xue Lingyun in history is not famous for her knowledge, but for her appearance, makeup and clothing.

Xue Lingyun said: "When I was seven years old, I didn't even know the taste of meat, and I didn't know a word. But I didn't think it was bitter, because I didn't know what sweetness was.

However, it was also when the concubine was seven years old that His Majesty ascended the throne!

Since then, life at my concubine's home has improved day by day.The court distributed potato seeds, and three months later, the concubine never felt hungry again.

The imperial court implemented the land equalization system, coupled with the salary of my father as the head of the pavilion, the concubine tasted mutton for the first time.At that time, the concubine really felt that the previous days were really wasted!What a waste! "

Having said this, Xue Lingyun's voice was choked up, with tears in her eyes.

Seeing this, Liu Yan thought to himself: What is this little thing?Xue Lingyun's good at crying is recorded in history, and it is well-deserved!This woman is simply another sister Lin!

But it turns out that he was wrong.

Because Xue Lingyun was not the only one who wanted to cry on the spot!

At this moment, under the Bronze Sparrow Stage, I don't know how many men with red eyes, I don't know how many beautiful women weep softly, and I don't know how many old people are wiping their tears with their sleeves.

Only then did Liu Yan realize that he was wrong - he thought that it would be a good thing for the people to have enough food and clothing, but it was far from enough to cry when he talked about it.But that's not the case!

My own soul comes from modern society, and I have never tasted the taste of meat without food or clothing.

However, Xue Lingyun had tasted it!

——Most people at the scene have tasted 1——

Hunger and cold left them with too many horrible memories, which are indelible for life.

Now that these memories come to mind, they have empathy with Xue Lingyun!

Moreover, at this very moment, it is the time for the Great Han Dynasty to review the achievements of the Great Han Dynasty in the ten years since the founding of the country.

Through Xue Lingyun's words, the common people recalled the sufferings of the past and thought about the sweetness of the present, how could they not lose their composure on the spot?

Xue Lingyun's ethereal voice sounded again, and said: "At that time, I thought that if this kind of life could continue, I would have no regrets in this life. However, what happened next proved how shallow my knowledge was at the beginning.

Another year later, the grains issued by the imperial court began to be promoted. Not only was the concubine no longer hungry, but she no longer had to eat potatoes to satisfy her hunger.

The livestock promoted by the imperial court grow fast and produce more flesh and fur, which can be easily exchanged for money. The price of meat in the market has dropped greatly, but the father's salary has continued to increase.As a concubine, I finally have my own brand new clothes.

In another two years, the prices of paper and books on the market dropped sharply.The concubine actually learned to read and write under the guidance of her father.

Only then did I realize that the sky is high, the land is vast, and China has a long history.

Eat well, wear warm clothes, read and write, to be honest, I am really contented.

However, I didn't expect that His Majesty still gave me grace!

You allow women to take the imperial examinations!

Even if the concubine is a woman, as long as she has learned enough, she can serve the country, show her strengths, and even leave her name in history.

It is no exaggeration to say that even though I am now in the Tongque Terrace, under the eyes of all the people, all of this makes me feel like I am in a dream! "

"Your Majesty!"

"Holy Emperor!"

"Holy Monarch!"

"I'm a big man...mighty!"

"It's not easy for us Chinese people to have today!"

……

Following Xue Lingyun's voice, I don't know how many people felt the same, and cried out on the spot.

Liu Yan was still a little puzzled, and said: "Even so, what does this have to do with your entry into the palace? If you serve the country at the court, wouldn't you still be able to repay my great favor?"

Xue Lingyun said confidently: "Serving the country in the court, how can it be compared to bearing children for His Majesty? Your Majesty now has a daughter but no son, although His Majesty can still be said to be in the prime of life, even though His Majesty is God's favorite. .

However, not afraid of ten thousand, just in case.Once His Majesty... Who will entrust this thousand-mile country to anyone?Could it be that the world will once again compete with each other?People want to live the life of ten years ago? "

"No! Absolutely not!"

"Miss Xue is right, being an official in the court, how can it be compared to having children for His Majesty?"

"Your Majesty, please allow Xue Lingyun to enter the palace!"

"It's not just Miss Xue, please His Majesty issue an imperial decree to accept the harem!"

"Your Majesty's heirs are in danger to the world, you must agree to Miss Xue's request!"

Chapter 407 Open up the land of Kyushu, collect trillions of wealth, make the country rich and the people strong

Obviously, in a sense, Xue Lingyun's growth process is the epitome of the experience of ordinary people in the Han Dynasty.

Obviously, in the eyes of the common people, the stability of Liu Yan's country is the guarantee of their happy life.

With things developing to this point, is it possible for Liu Yan not to accept Xue Lingyun anymore?

Furthermore, this is the coexistence of beauty and wisdom, the number one beauty in the last three kingdoms, who is like a superstar of the emperors of later generations, Xue Lingyun, Liu Yan really doesn't want it?

When the voices of the common people became weaker, Liu Yan said: "Okay, just as you have been invited. Come here! According to my will, Xue Lingyun is gentle and graceful, beautiful and quiet, and should be tucked into the palace. Today, it is named Rong Hua, thank you!"

"According to the order!"

In the end, only Charalice was left.

Liu Yan asked: "Charles, what request do you want to make of me?"

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! This minister is Charalice's father, and I have something to say to you, something to say!"

Before Charalice spoke, Chatra under the Bronze Sparrow Stage had already let out a loud voice.

There is no way, knowing a daughter is like a father.

Chatra knew her daughter, Charalice, too well.

The emperor of the Han Dynasty is the master of men and horses, the most powerful person in the world today.He looks so handsome and mighty, which woman can't be tempted?

It is more than [-]% possible that Charalice will make the same request as the four women in front.

How does that work?

Although the Emperor of Han is indeed powerful, he hasn't decided to surrender yet!How can my own daughter enter the palace of the Empress Han?

Ding Ding Ding-

Chatra took a few quick steps and boarded the Bronze Sparrow Terrace.

He paid homage and said, "Minister Chatra, see Your Majesty! Regarding Charalice's request, the minister has something to say."

Liu Yan said: "You say."

"Uh...that's how it is." Chatra said: "The reason why the little girl Charalise participated in the imperial examination of the Han Dynasty is actually for the foreign ministers. The foreign ministers suffer from thirst, and only His Majesty's Jiuzhuanhuichundan, Only then can it be cured."

Liu Yandao: "Although Chalaris is a woman from Fanbang, but since she is a Jinshi for my great man, I will naturally give you a Nine Turns Back to Spring Pill."

Chatra saluted again and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Your Majesty's foreign minister's long grace can be called a re-creation! Uh... The foreign minister thinks that it is not appropriate to make a hasty decision now about what Charalise asked His Majesty. Wait After the foreign ministers have discussed with Charalise, it will not be too late to ask His Majesty for your grace."

"That's fine too!"

If Charalice also asked to enter the palace, then all the female Jinshi in this imperial examination would be wiped out.This is also not what Liu Yan wants to see.

Immediately, Liu Yan nodded and agreed without hesitation.

Then, the grand ceremony quickly proceeded to the next link - summarizing the achievements of the Han Dynasty in the past ten years, and promulgating new orders!

Liu Yandao: "The soldiers and civilians of Huaxia, my people! Today, our Qin and Han Empires have been established for ten years. How about the military and state affairs of the court in the past ten years?

I can use eight words to describe: expand the territory, strengthen the country and make the people rich!

Since I ascended the throne, some Dongyi invaded Liaodong.I will destroy them and establish Dongzhou!

There are Wuhuan, Qiang, Xiongnu, and Xianbei, who admire Wanghua and take the initiative to vote. I set up Wuzhou, Qiangzhou, Xiongzhou, and Xianzhou!

There was a rebellion from the barbarians in the southwest, and I set up Dian Prefecture to fight against them!

There are barbarians in Wuling who are about to make a move, so I threaten them with force and set up Lizhou!

The barbarians in Jiaozhou refused to accept it, so I sent a large army to Jiaozhou, and continued to the south to establish Linzhou!

There is Guishuang colluding with the Jie people to plot against me, I will destroy the Jie people, and force Guishuang to donate all the areas north of the Amu Darya River, and create a new blue state!

In other words, since I ascended the throne, I have expanded the territory of Kyushu for the great Han, and increased the number of people by 2000 million! "

"I'm a big man...mighty!"

"Your Majesty is mighty!"

"I am mighty in Huaxia!"

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

"Long live China, long live, long live!"

……

I don't know, I was surprised!

Although the imperial court's achievements are known to the common people.

But knowing it is one thing, summing it up is another.

Is this worth it?

In ten years, the Qin and Han Empires actually opened up the land of Kyushu, adding 2000 million people.

You know, the original Huaxia was only a land of thirteen states and 5000 million people;

If things go on like this, what will Qin and Han be like in another ten or twenty years?

How can the people be unhappy?

Also, think about it carefully, the hardships of defeating the Huns in the Western Han Dynasty.During the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Qiang people were in trouble.

Think about it again, now that the Qin and Han Empires are easy to expand their territories, how can the common people not feel proud?

Not the same!

What a difference!

Facts have proved that the Qin and Han empires are really completely different from the previous two Hans!

Huaxia has really become much stronger than before!

Liu Yan continued: "Let's talk about the income and people's livelihood of the Han court. Since the founding of the Qin and Han Dynasties, the court's income has increased rapidly. Now, the annual income of my Qin and Han court has reached one billion yuan!"

"How much... How much? How much did His Majesty say?"

"One billion guan! Your majesty said one billion guan, right?"

"This... is this too much? You know, in the Later Han Dynasty, the revenue of the imperial court was only about 80 billion yuan. Converted into guan, it was only 800 million guan.

Even in the former Han Dynasty, the revenue of the imperial court was only 5000 million guan a year!Now, the imperial court's income has actually gotten one billion yuan, a twenty-fold increase? "

"Why can't you double it twenty times? Think about it, what kind of life were you living ten years ago? What kind of life are you living now? Isn't it twenty times?"

"However, this is twenty times! I feel that the current level of taxation is much lighter than before!"

……

The common people talked a lot, and most of them showed disbelief.

After their voices became quieter, Liu Yan explained: "I'm not mistaken, the current income of the imperial court is indeed about [-] times that of ten years ago! In fact, it's not surprising if you think about it carefully.

Ten years ago, the total revenue of the Liangzhou government had reached 5000 million yuan.Even if we don’t talk about the land of Kyushu in my Great Han Xinna, my Qin and Han Empires also have thirteen states.

If every state can reach the level of Liangzhou, the revenue of the imperial court should also reach 5000 million guan. "

"In addition, His Majesty has canceled the restrictions on travel, unified taxation across the country, and the unimpeded flow of goods!"
