Chapter 256 Empire (nineteen)
More than ten days later, a new life was born in the prince's uterus.
This is definitely good news for Cao Chong.
Sun Shangxiang's belly was born and she was a boy.
All of this was complete at once.
As a ruler, the most taboo thing is to have no descendants.
In the eyes of those ministers, daughters are not actually considered true descendants. Only boys, and only boys who can shoulder the heavy responsibility of the country are considered descendants.
I went to see the only remaining family genealogy in later generations. The branches and leaves are all names of men, and very few names of women.
Even in Cao Chong's eyes, men and women are equal, but they cannot change the fact that this is a patriarchal society.
Cao Chong still valued his first son quite seriously. After thinking about it, he gave him the title of Cao Yu.
The so-called Yu means shining, shining, the sun is rayed in the day, and the moon is rayed in the night.
Guangyao is naturally Cao Chong's eager expectation for him.
There is also good news that Xin Xianying finally got pregnant and was pregnant with Xin Hua.
The mistress is pregnant and if she gives birth to a boy, she will be the eldest son.
If this guy is not stupid, Cao Chong will plan to let him inherit his power.
This is also the safest and safest transfer of power.
Of course, things in the future are actually indefinite.
In fact, Cao Chong has many wives and concubines, and most of them are pregnant with children. This is of course inseparable from his diligent sowing of the night.
However, having many sons is a good thing and a bad thing.
Since it was in the late Han Dynasty, we must use the rules of this era to restrict them.
For them in the future, only one person can ascend to the 9th Five-Year Plan, while the others are kings, princes, or others.
As a father, Cao Chong didn't think about how powerful these people would be in the future, but as long as they live happily, even if they are poets and painters, they will follow them.
As for power inheritance, I believe that with my body, I still have a long time to consider them.
After Cao Yu was born, Cao Chong had a pair of children.
Cao Ying, who was in front, is now over one year old, and is just when she was learning to walk and learn to speak.
Moreover, more lives are about to be born.
Now that I think about it, there are so many wives and concubines here, and Cao Chong is constantly in trouble, it may be difficult to take into account them.
As a later generation, of course, I know how important my father's care is.
pity
He is not in an ordinary family, he is in a royal family, and in the future, he will even become an imperial family.
Children from imperial families are sometimes even less happy than children from common people.
but
This is their destiny.
Cao Chong will care for the girls very much and let them have the courage to pursue their love.
As for marriage
Sorry, Cao Chong never thought of using his daughter to do marriage. As for marriage, it was even more impossible.
It’s not impossible to marry your daughter.
My sons will have a lot in the future.
Even Cao Chong never thought about marrying him. His goal was the sea of stars!
After staying in the backyard for the whole afternoon, Cao Chong had to go back to handle his business.
Now Wei State has two big and small things to deal with by itself.
One is a matter of the Western Regions, and the other is naturally a matter of road construction.
Cao Chong had too many things to do every day, and he also had to intrigue with those ministers. If he hadn't been practicing in this world for several years, Cao Chong would have been played around by these people.
When you are free occasionally, Cao Chong will also think that since he has traveled through time, he is likely to become the most powerful person in this land in the future. Do you want to leave more useful things for this era?
For example, some thoughts, some seeds.
But after thinking about it carefully, Cao Chong immediately threw out these unrealistic ideas.
Thinking about the fate of Wang Mang, the time traveler, Cao Chong knew that even if he wanted to reform, he had to take it easy.
Reform is just two simple words, but if it touches the interests of the entire class, even if Cao Chong is an emperor, he may be crushed to pieces.
After throwing these ideas out, Cao Chong focused on the military newspaper in front of him.
These military newspapers were not sent by Zhong Yao.
In fact, Zhong Yao had only set off a few days ago to organize his luggage, prepare supplies, and assemble the army. It would probably take longer for Zhong Yao to go to the Western Regions.
This military newspaper was delivered to him by Cao Chong's secret guards.
Judging from the content, Cao Chong also had a rough understanding of the situation in the Western Regions at this time.
In short, what the aristocratic family says is half true and half false.
Of course, the countries in the Western Regions will not tolerate aristocratic families in the Western Regions, and one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, especially an aggressive tiger like a noble family.
The great powers of Wusun have indeed begun to form coalition forces, but the speed is not so fast.
And judging from this information, the aristocratic family is now divided into two factions.
One faction wanted to regain the Western Regions and then return to his hometown.
Another faction wanted to occupy the Western Regions and become independent.
Therefore, the request for help from Wei was the result of negotiations between the two factions.
I hope to return to my hometown to get help from Wei State, overcome difficulties, and return to my hometown as soon as possible.
Those who hope to be independent want to paralyze the Wei State. If Wei State hesitates, they will gain a foothold in the Western Regions after a while. If Wei State decides, they can also use the Wei State's army to lead the way, and even use the conflicts between Wei State's generals to make another faction accept their ideas.
This memorial is basically what it says.
If this is true, then Zhong Yao's trip will be a little troublesome.
Cao Chong gently exhaled a breath of turbid air.
This time, many of them went to the Western Regions with Zhong Yao, and a few of them were from the Prince's Palace, but Cao Chong was not worried.
After all, the person he sent was Zhong Yao, and with Zhong Yao's ability, he would probably not be unable to handle the situation in front of him well.
After all, he is a person who has experienced strong storms.
Cao Chong shook his head gently. The Western Regions incident depends on Zhong Yao's wrist. I know the result, and it may be several months later.
Putting aside the affairs of the Western Regions, Cao Chong opened another bamboo slip.
This is the news that Bao Chu handed him to himself today.
As for these news, it is naturally the situation of road construction in various counties that Cao Chong asked Bao to go out more than ten days ago.
The counties that are farther away naturally have no fruit, but some counties that are closer to Yecheng have returned one after another three days ago.
For example, Wei County, where Yecheng is located, Dong County, Henei County, Yangping County, Jiyin County, etc.
News has been coming long ago.
Facts have proved that most prefects are still smart and dare not greedy for money and money in this matter, but it does not mean how good they are.
Although some did not get any money, they definitely did not build roads.
Cao Chong also needs to punish such people severely.
As for Dongjun, it was indeed built nearly 100 meters of road, but the five secret guards inquired, and the prefect Zhang Ge did not ask the people to go to build roads, but asked the yamen runners to go to build roads, building more than 100 meters of roads a day, while the daily wages of each yamen runners were fifty cents.
In fact, this guy is indeed not greedy for money and money, but he just lets the yamen runners build roads instead of letting the people build roads. He doesn’t want to work hard on the people?
Cao Chong frowned tightly.
Only now did Cao Chong deeply feel the generation gap between him and these officials.
Among these officials, some advocate inaction, some govern rigorously, and some love the people as their children
In essence, they really want to benefit the people and are a good official.
However, in Cao Chong's eyes, they were actually worse than corrupt officials.
To some extent, mediocre officials are more harmful than corrupt officials.
It is necessary to popularize some scientific methods of governing the country.
but.
It may be difficult to pass on your governing philosophy.
But no matter how difficult it is, it needs to be done.
Then, the first step starts with killing!
Cao Chong's eyes flashed. He knew that as long as he did this, the entire Yecheng, or the whole world, would know Cao Chong's majesty or strength.
Chapter completed!
