Chapter 219: [Women's Census]

"The daughter of the Fang family was 15 years old in the second year of Zhenguan. She married the Wang family at the beginning of the year and had two sons and one daughter."

"The eldest daughter of the Xiao family, Wude, was thirteen years old in the sixth year. She married several families and died of difficult labor."

...

Li Chengqian looked at it one by one, nodding from time to time.

The records of this investigation are much more comprehensive than the ones written by Fatty last time.

Turning to the last page, there is a summary: 237 people surveyed, 52 people died of dysfunction or miscarriage, and 17 people died of illness.

"Calling a disease?" Li Chengqian looked up and asked.

"Well, a woman's illness." said the fat man, "When I went to check, two of them died of blood from the bridal chamber, one died of stomachache, more than ten were stinky from the bottom, and one was sick and fevered."

Here we are divided into one type of deceased person related to this investigation, one type of dead person who has no relationship, such as those two people who died of high fever. The related deceased persons are divided into two types: trauma and gynecological diseases.

The total number of people is 237, and the deaths are about 69, accounting for about 30%. Seeing this data, Li Chengqian opened his mouth wide and almost one of the three young women died. This proportion is too high!

"Okay, this investigation will definitely convince the queen and the queen!" Li Chengqian nodded.

The fat man laughed when he heard this.

"Let's refine this table. Let's divide those under the age of twelve into a range, those under the age of twelve to fourteen into a range, and those at the age of 15 to seventeen into a range. Calculate the death occupancy rate of each age, which can more directly indicate that the younger the age, the greater the possibility of difficult labor!" Li Chengqian said while drawing a table on paper.

"You take this investigation record and read everyone's information to me!" Li Chengqian said, "I'll remember it."

"Oh!" The fat man picked up the notebook and read out the information in it one by one. After hearing this, Li Chengqian wrote a "right" stroke on the corresponding table. If it is dead, he would also write a stroke below.

After the cooperation between the two, the situation of the three age groups was soon counted. As Li Chengqian said, the mortality rate of girls under the age of 12 reached more than 80%. About 40% of girls aged 12 to 14, while only 67% of girls aged 15 to 17.

"Ha?" The fat man looked at the third-level data and couldn't believe it. The gap between different age groups is too big, right?

Most of these people were investigated by him personally, but the data after such detailed results were not shocked!

Moreover, such data somewhat breaks the inherent concept in his mind. The Tang Dynasty was a society that provided early marriage, especially when girls could get married at the age of 11 or 2. Everyone took this as a habit. Normally, these three sets of data are now explaining to fat people that the sooner they get married, the more harmful they are!

He couldn't help but pick up the account book he had set and checked it one by one. He didn't believe it, but after looking through a few pages, he believed it!

After a while, he allowed himself to accept this fact, and then said to Li Chengqian: "It seems that the eldest brother is right. This investigation can convince the queen of mother!"

When the two brothers took the investigation record book to the queen, the queen picked it up and looked through two pages, where there were more living people and fewer dead people. She couldn't help but say strangely: "You just want to convince me with this book?"

"Yes, please look back, Mother Queen." The fat man nodded and said.

After seeing the summary data at the end and the age group data divided by Li Chengqian, the queen looked at the last look and then showed a serious look. She looked at each data summarized carefully, then turned the contents in front, and counted them one by one. Moreover, she looked more seriously this time, and the pages were turned faster than before.

After a while, the queen put the account book on the table, was silent for a while, then let out a sigh, looked at her two sons, and asked, "Are all the people above?"

The fat man said with confidence: "Yes, everyone was found on the household loan and went to their homes to check it."

The last trace of suspicion of the queen was broken and she became quiet.

The results of this investigation made her a little unacceptable.

Girls under the age of 12 will die if they get married ten times, and girls around four will die if they get married. This proportion is too great!

After a while, the queen came back to her soul, picked up the account book again, and read it carefully.

"My mother, the woman gets married too early, which will cause great harm to her body and easily hurt her life. Please ask the mother to allow her eldest sister to get married after she is seventeen years old!" Li Chengqian said.

The fat man echoed: "Yes, Mother!"

The queen did not speak out, but after reading the whole book, she raised her head and said, "From the Sui Dynasty to the founding of the Tang Dynasty, there have been wars and large population loss for many years. It has only been a little relieved in the ten years since the founding of the country, but only 30% of the population of the previous dynasty. The important task of increasing the population is on women. If all the women in the world are like the account book you investigated, one of three will die, then when will the Tang Dynasty surpass the previous dynasty? You two investigate this matter, both the country and the people, good! This time, we have to show those ministers how careless they are!"

Li Chengqian and the fat man looked at each other, and both of them saw hope.

Originally, it was about the big girl, but the queen suddenly skipped the big girl and talked about the world's population. But she even considered the women in the world, so how could she not consider her daughter!

The queen handed the account book back to the two of them and said, "This is something that you, as princes, share your worries for your father and seek blessings for the world. You should hand it to your father in person!"

"Uh..." The queen actually asked them to hand it over to Lao Li in person. Li Chengqian was stunned for a moment and had to respond: "Yes."

After Li Chengqian took it, he handed it over to the fat man.

"Qingque, you have lost two laps recently. Are you sad for the poor Qing Ling'er? Child, let it go, it's because she has no fate to enjoy the happiness with you!" The queen looked at the fat man and said with heartache. Then she turned around and said to Li Chengqian: "What have Chengqian been busy with recently? I heard that you always asked the eunuchs from the East Palace to come to Hanliang Hall to move materials, and why are you fiddling with?"

The queen is a mother who believes that a child is fat and strong. The fat man has been going to various countrysides for investigation in the past half month. It is midsummer again. It is enough for him to be fucked by the sun. Now he has just lost weight again, which is the result of his good eating and drinking. However, the queen is heartbroken that the fat man has lost two circles of flesh.

Li Chengqian has been renovating his pool recently. In order to save money, he asked Lao Zeng to run to Hanliang Palace to the materials!
