"Why did Wu Lang choose this moment?"
In the second half of the meeting, everyone brainstormed and imagined dozens of possible troubles that might arise during the pilot program—such as a woman giving birth to an unqualified daughter in her last pregnancy, and her in-laws pressuring her to get pregnant as soon as possible; a husband refusing to cooperate and physically or mentally coercing the woman; common people being ignorant and maliciously interpreting and promoting the policy; unruly people taking advantage of this and forcing the woman to engage in illicit transactions; criminals taking advantage of the fact that the woman cannot bear children and will not leave evidence of her crime and further harming her...
Chen Tang carefully wrote down every possibility.
The vaguely smug expression was gradually replaced by sadness.
Before I knew it, more than an hour had passed.
Everyone sorted out several scrolls.
Chen Tang rubbed the stiff and tense muscles on his shoulders and said, "Let's leave it at that for now, and we'll discuss the follow-up details later."
Everyone left one after another, until only Chen Tang and Chu Yao were left.
There was also a Gu Chi originally.
But Chu Yao refused to move. Gu Chi stared at him for several seconds, but still left the mat - Chu Wuhui's posture made it clear that he wanted to have a private talk with his lord, and he couldn't stand it.
The woman was relatively young, around 77 or 8 years old, with her hands tied in front of her. Before she could see Chen Tang's appearance, she angrily scolded him, "The man surnamed Chen is so cunning! He let people tie him up when it was obvious that he could have been caught. He is not a gentleman at all!"
His posture and demeanor also seemed that of an ordinary person.
In the eyes of everyone, it was just a whim of the lord, a reckless act of your anger, and your willful behavior was triggered by your cerebellum, which led to a series of changes. The only thing is that you carefully planned and did it deliberately.
Chen Tang had the woman brought back.
"My lord, the person has been brought here!"
As the various places in Qianzhou were controlled by Chen Tang, the national seal also incorporated them into the territory. Chen Tang's national seal was connected with the seals of the counties and prefectures in the two states, and the situation of local government offices was gradually completed.
You have the absolute right to break the old order and reshape the new order! Whether it is to establish a new official system, formulate unprecedented national policies, or rewrite social laws! You have very little freedom! Now is the time to do it, when will you do it
"He looked at the person next to him. Is it this person?"
We also know what happened.
You said that seriously, your eyes sincere.
The doubt on your face is fake.
The woman's eyes were covered with a white cloth, and she was wearing a complicated commoner's outfit. She was short among the special people. When the soldier removed the white cloth, revealing her pretty face, Chen Tang finally understood why the male soldier was attracted by her beauty.
Of course, difficulty in ending is secondary.
"Yes, yes, those noble families, yes, yes, don't they have any minor problems? They were still watching the situation of the Qing Dynasty at that time, right? If one pair of eyes is watching the Qing Dynasty, then install two pairs less! Now that you want to use us, it is our blessing. Why are you all so pretentious? Do you really think that none of you have the capital to be taken care of? You still dare to come to recruit us with that trick. How many years have you washed your face? You are so shameless!"
You are looking at the woman, and the woman is looking at you with confusion.
You had just finished reviewing two scrolls of letters when a messenger came into the tent to tell you that the woman who made the male soldier pregnant had been found.
Gu Chi listened carefully to Shen Tang's words.
Chen Tang paused as he flipped through the records in the scroll, and sighed, "It doesn't have to be this critical moment, it's just a matter of following the flow. Wu Hui, do you remember when the women's camp was established? When we arrived at He Yin, it had taken shape and was handed over to Shao Xuan for management. The female soldiers recruited at that time were either fatherless or motherless or abandoned by their parents and sold at a bad price."
Shen Tang no longer had any guesses in his mind.
"The weight of both ends of the scale must be the same, then it will be balanced." Chen Tang stretched out his hand, "One end is heavy, the other end is heavy, you standing under the scale may slide down, but what about the person coming before? That rod is a balanced scale, will it really drag the person coming before into the abyss?"
Chen Tang: “…”
Chu Yao came the slowest, his steps were slow and small, his clothes were kicked and flew everywhere. Chen Tang said angrily: "He should take it easy, if he's around, he'll start to sing..."
"… Alas, even the lord who values etiquette and law would praise you for being so obedient and willing to correct others. You just listen to whatever the little guy says, and you can be fussy, stubborn, and even tyrannical."
She waved her hand and asked someone to escort the male soldiers over. While waiting, the woman still looked loyal and willing to submit.
Because the local government offices were running in difficulty, all the farm tools needed for the autumn harvest were prepared, and Chu Yao was busy with that during those days.
My appearance is definitely wrong.
The woman's struggling movements also froze up, and she looked at Chen Tang in disbelief. For a moment, a look of resentment of being humiliated appeared on her face. This gesture made Chen Tang's forehead full of question marks. Judging from what the woman said, the misunderstanding was not small.
Chen Tang looked up: "Found it?"
Shen Tang was so angry that he flipped the bronze table over and over and smashed it!
Alas, it is heartbreaking to see that the lord is so good at self-reflection.
Shen Tang sighed heavily.
Chen Tang asked me, "Does he remember you?"
Everyone went in together.
you asked the kneeling woman.
Shen Tang raised his hand to stop Gu Chi.
I really walked so slowly just to see the silence.
Chen Tang was really going to be mad!
Chen Tang is a brave warrior, a literary scholar, and the lord that Tao Ping and I can accept, but he is also a male of the same gender as us: "... You can accept their loyalty and purity, but there are no birds in a small forest, such as some of the old ministers of Xin State. We care about gender. Who can guarantee that the former courtiers will care? For the sake of stability, you have to do it!"
Chen Tang asked us: "What do their tribesmen say?"
Chen Tang chuckled, it was rare bad news, and his depressed mood also ruined many people - the noble families were willing to send people, and the common people were recruiting more capable people, but at most you still had no food, and the common people would even starve to death on a small scale.
"My lord, you need to blame yourself. Neglect is the norm." If the lord is flawed in everything, what else does his subordinates need to do? "After that, there are no examples of men practicing, so whether it is military law in the barracks or secular etiquette, that aspect is completely blank. In fact, military law is bad, etiquette is bad, and even any other 'law' is bad. They are all made by the monarch for some purpose, either to pacify the people or to fool the people. They change as the situation changes. That process is gradual, not achieved all at once. It is possible to be perfect with flaws from the beginning! The lord is only one person, his mind and energy are unlimited, it is his fault."
The old ministers of the Xin State who had surrendered looked at each other in bewilderment.
"You really struggle with how damn good you are."
"The letter has gone out, but there are replies."
Naturally, unnecessary troubles can be avoided.
Gu Chi suppressed his worries and continued listening.
"You said that after they succeeded, you consulted him. You asked him about it. Did he say that there was no such thing?"
Nearly 80% of the government offices have fallen into a stagnation stage. The remaining government offices can still operate, but the management is very chaotic, let alone the household registration management, which is a mess. The intelligence obtained by Chen Tang is still the population statistics and disaster statistics before and after the war, all of which are zero. You can only send your own people to take over and send out documents to recruit talents. Unfortunately, there are few responses.
The reality is more exciting than you think.
You just gave a bad reminder: "A few months later, in the wild, no one was attracted to him, and he did it before, but you have no impression?"
If there had been a discovery that time, after another year or two, there might have been only one male soldier who was implicated, and it would have been difficult to resolve the matter.
Are we all from the same family circle
Do you know how many old ministers of Xin State you saved? Aren't there many people from aristocratic families out there? You killed many people from aristocratic families in the future, raided our house and dug up our ancestral graves, but that's all in the past. You just made the same mistake that a rogue emperor would make, so why would you be willing to understand the difficulties you faced when you were making your fortune? Do you want to force you to take up the butcher knife
In other words—
"You actually really ignored you. You ignored your identity as a soldier, but you ignored your identity as a man. This male soldier's pregnancy made you realize that you are all young. The first batch is now in their early seventies, and they should be married young men. You have no human desires and no sex, but are just knives in your hands that can only kill people. But you seem to have ignored that point subconsciously, and even considered that possibility when formulating military law - you have no power, you are promoted to the weaker side, and you will plunder the relatively strong side for the sake of beauty and desire... It's a pity that you ignored it."
Woman: "..." Chen Tang is worried that you were training and practicing in those years instead of marching and fighting. You have no knowledge of the relevant knowledge and rely entirely on primitive instincts. What if you hurt yourself? As a lord, if you can face that aspect and give correct guidance...
Everyone: “???”
Chen Tang is good at reading minds.
Chu Yao said with a guilty look on his face, "My Lord, what are you talking about? Chi wanted to deal with this matter as quickly as possible, so he could go back to prepare for the autumn harvest. I heard from you guys that the wheat seeds in that batch were excellent, but the yield was even lower than expected."
Chen Tang: “???”
The male soldier then stopped moving.
"You are people abandoned by the world, and you have taken your life to make a living on your account. You thought you took good care of you in those years, giving you the most food and salary, and you were always stingy with your military merits and rewards. You thought you were very partial to you..." Chen Tang's voice was a little self-deprecating, "After you found out that the male soldier was pregnant, you thought so. But the fact is! Did you!"
Chen Tang asked, "What is he talking about?"
The woman shook her head and said, "Yes, I know her."
You patted the table, “He should be quiet first.”
Compared to the change in the male soldier's attire, which was completely different from today, the woman's change was relatively small. The male soldier recognized her face as soon as he saw her face and nodded: "My lord, it's not me."
Because at that stage, the cake belonged to the emperor alone, and I could give it to whoever I wanted. In order to get a share of the cake, the hungry people around me would help the emperor wholeheartedly. If you do that, you will get more cake.
The male soldiers were locked up in a tent at that time, because they had not been convicted yet. You did not suffer any skin injuries, and the eight meals a day were the same as before. You exercised more, and your face became plump and white. As soon as you came, you knelt down obediently with your head down.
Why is it that everything a founding emperor does is more complicated
If you can capture a male soldier and ask you how the lord treats you, there will be absolutely no one who will say that you treat you badly. Even if it is this male soldier who was temporarily detained, when Chen Tang asked you if you had any complaints, you said from the bottom of your heart that you did not! No, lord, you already have that life!
Chen Tang scratched his hair and said to us irritably: "Forget it, just wait a few more days. If you are still appreciative, it won't be difficult to come down and take a look. As long as we are lucky enough, it will be fine!"
Normally, if the lord had gone that far, founding a country and ascending the throne would only be a matter of a word. These noble families were just trying to grab a position, but they collectively agreed, which seemed like their brains were stuck in the door. If the person behind him got mad, it was possible that he would kill all the noble families in the territory!
At this moment, the woman still knows the situation.
Capture a few Tao Pingfeng officials and ask them what's going on.
You need to take into account the external situation, the gains and losses, and you can't even care what your colleagues think.
You also know how timid your suggestion is.
woman:"… "
Send someone to find Chu Yao and others who are on a business trip.
Gu Chi: “…That’s true.”
Gu Chi called you "Qi Lang" which he had not seen for a long time. The underlying meaning was that the conversation was between the monarch and his subjects, between Chu Youhui, the servant of Xiaocheng, and Shen Youli, the man who bought me. Seven people of this status had completely the same interests and positions, and there were all taboos.
The sooner you seek death, the later you will suffer.
"So, when you realized that, you took the opportunity to put forward your own ideas. You thought, there will never be a better time than that time. Take advantage of the small trouble after it happens and strangle it in the cradle." Chen Tang said with a little relief, "When you realized that male soldiers also have no sexual desires, you thought, do you have other demands? The same demands as female soldiers? Is it just the pleasure of sex between men, but also the obsession with blood? Now that the war has stopped..."
As long as people are still alive, what problem can be solved
It is either early or late now, it is time to make trouble by borrowing male soldiers.
Hearing the self-blame and disgust in Chen Tang's words, even Gu Chi was shocked and asked hurriedly: "Why did Qilang say that?"
In the first stage, we hold the weak distribution power.
"Why did Wulang bring this up at this critical moment?"
Everyone thought that was the result of Chen Tang's repeated compromises.
Routines have won people’s hearts since ancient times, and being aware is also a blessing.
In practice, that will give you the results you want.
Even though I don't think my lord is right in my heart.
He continued, "Yes, he listens to you."
"Besides this, there is no other purpose." Chen Tang lowered his voice with a big heart, "Now is a time when everything is in a mess. There are confidants in the camp, and it is not convenient to discuss without some words. It will be bad to make a decision early. Yanzhou and Qianzhou are vast, and the manpower required is very small. The camp knew that there would be some voices a few days ago. When it is implemented, public opinion will be suppressed..."
But you know you have to do it.
As long as the green mountains remain, we will be afraid of having firewood to burn!
But when a small portion of the cake is divided, the full people have no strength left, and their mentality changes. They no longer have any opinions on who owns the cake, and disputes arise. The emperor who has no cake also has to consider his weak superiors and listen to their opinions.
"Does he know why we asked him to come here today?"
Of course, it was Chu Yao who asked us to look at the four hexagrams.
After a while, everyone was there.
Ah, what should the male soldiers do
