Moreover, the women in each portrait are beautiful and charming, regardless of their form or temperament, they are all beautiful people. In the eyes of ordinary people, these are fairy-like characters.

"How is it, isn't it beautiful?" Si Lin pointed at these portraits as if offering treasures.

"It was carefully selected by the concubines and the others. After layers of selection, I finally selected it myself. Each one is a national beauty and every one is a descendant of a famous family."

"What does Ah Li say about this?" Lu Sheng thought for a while and asked with some confusion.

Si Lin had only the queen and had no other concubines. Although Lu Li had already given birth to a prince for Si Lin and was also named the crown prince. This is enough for ordinary families, but it seems inappropriate for the emperor.

In this era when focusing on the inheritance of incense and growing branches and leaves, as an emperor, if he cannot give birth to ten or eight princes, it will make the people of China uneasy. But if Lu Li wants to give birth to ten or eight princes in one person, it will be too difficult for Lu Li to make him feel.

Moreover, Lu Li is already in her thirties, so Lu Sheng does not recommend her to have another child. Therefore, in the court, there have been many suggestions in requesting Si Lin to take concubines. However, Si Lin has repeatedly suppressed them, which has made them point the finger at Lu Sheng.

Many people think that it is because of Lu Sheng's existence that Si Lin dares not accept a concubine.

If Si Lin was the King of Nanling, Lu Sheng would not have agreed to take a concubine. But now he is the emperor, and the number of concubines in the harem is regulated by laws and regulations, and there are many political marriages. If Lu Sheng interferes, it would be unreasonable.

So, as long as Ali can figure out that Si Lin loves to accept concubines, she should accept concubines. But isn’t it a bit too much to call me, my brother-in-law, to offer treasures like this?

"Where did she have any opinions? Many of the women were chosen by Ali."

"Oh?" Lu Sheng was surprised.

"Look, this is the daughter of that guy Feng Wuji. She looks like Feng Wuxue. Nian Fang is sixteen and has not yet grown up. After she grows up, her appearance will never be under Feng Wuxue.

There is also this, the granddaughter of Han Ge Lao, who is from a scholarly family, is proficient in classics, history, music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and is known as Dayu's first talented woman. There is also this, the little girl of Lingwang, who is fifteen years old this year. Although her appearance is not as good as Feng Mingyu and her talent is slightly inferior to Han Ziyan, she is not far from that of him. Moreover, she is a royal family and noble blood..."

"Wait!" Lu Sheng suddenly shouted, "King Ling, isn't your ninth brother? You don't even let your niece go?"

"Why don't you let go of your niece?" Si Lin was silent. In a blink of an eye, his eyes suddenly opened wide, and he stretched out his finger and pointed at himself, "Do you think I'm in the draft?"

"Isn't it?"

"Haha... Lu Sheng, do you have any misunderstandings about your sister's belly? She is now extraordinary and I may die on the spot when I glared at me. Do I dare?"

"Then you are..."

"Lu Ying is nineteen years old this year?" Si Lin smiled faintly, "It's time to find a good match."

"I'm only nineteen years old, why are you anxious?" Lu Sheng frowned slightly. He was not disgusted, but felt that a nineteen-year-old man was extremely immature in his mind and should not be the time to start a family and start a career.

"At the age of nineteen, it's not young. Ordinary people become fathers at the age of sixteen."

"Is my family an ordinary family?" Si Lin was speechless when Lu Sheng asked.

But then, Si Lin sighed softly, "Lu Ying came to Taixue to study two years ago. He is the only son of Duke Zhenguo and the prince of Jiangshan. Can you find a young hero who is more noble than him in the world today?

It would be fine if it was just a noble birth. Lu Ying was both civil and military, and had excellent character and academic performance. He was also known as the head of the four princes in the capital. The crown prince of the dynasty was also inferior. You can imagine what kind of crazy bees, waves, butterflies Lu Ying would face?

You have never seen the madness of those people in the capital. Let me put it this way, if I hadn't protected the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion closely, they would have dared to let their daughter sneak into Lu Ying's room and take off all their clothes and wait in the bed.

After all, Lu Ying is not well-informed, and it is easy to avoid hidden arrows and it is hard to prevent it. The Lu family's bloodline is small. If the Lu family's bloodline is defiled, how can you be worthy of your brother? So... I think I'd better decide Lu Ying's marriage first, which will eliminate some people's thoughts."

"It's hard to think so far-reachingly about you..." Lu Sheng looked at Si Lin with a wry smile, "But I feel that the ideas of you and those people are no different. Are you considering my Lu family bloodline? I think you are greedy for Lu Ying's body."

"I'm greedy? I've got your Lu family's bloodline long ago, so why are you greedy? Isn't Ai Li half?"

"No half is enough, you want it all. It's really hard for you. You are so willing to let go of the daughter of the Spirit King. But I can't make the decision."

"You can't make the decision? Who else can make the decision? Qingluan Sword Immortal?" Si Lin wanted to say stop making fun of it, but suddenly realized that Bu Feiyan seemed to be no longer Bu Feiyan of the past, but the ancient true god Phoenix, the only awakened god today. It seems that Lu Sheng's family status is not high now.

"Have Ying Er and a lady approached recently?" Lu Sheng asked curiously.

"No, what you should ask is which young ladies Ying Er is getting closer?" Si Lin smiled faintly.

"Well……"

"How about it, every lady here is looking at Dayu's noblest bloodline, at least a thousand-year-old nobleman. Although Lu Ying is your eldest son, they are indeed a bit arrogant. But think about it, it is unlikely that you will find a good match unless it is a princess of the dynasty.

But you and Ali are brothers and sisters, and this dynasty princess must not marry Lu Ying, so these are the best."

"Why do I feel like I'm bride when I hear you?" Lu Sheng picked up a stack of scrolls and put them aside, then sat down, "You are idle and have nothing to do? There is no need to deal with national affairs? Even if you are idle and have nothing to do, don't think I am the same as you... Is there anything else, and I can't leave."

"Are you really worried?"

"What are you worried about? Lu Ying is not a child. Do you think he can't even tell whether he is sincere or ulterior motive?"

"But as your eldest son of Lu Sheng, you can't marry someone casually, right? Even if you don't involve any interests, you should consider your Lu Sheng's bloodline? If you lose your bloodline and your qualifications, you won't have time to cry."

"If he had the idea of ​​getting married, he would definitely let Yan'er and I check it out. Since he didn't say it, it means he hasn't fallen in love with anyone yet. There is no need for you as an uncle to worry so much. There is nothing else?"

"Yes!" Si Lin put away his joking smile and returned to the case, took out a file and sent it to Lu Sheng, "This is the grain production data in Chuzhou over the past five years, look at it."

Lu Sheng took over the hand in confusion, and his face suddenly changed a lot as soon as he looked at it. "The amount of grain produced in Chuzhou has been decreasing every year in the past five years, and the grain production this year is estimated to be only half of what it was five years ago."

"Not bad!" Si Lin said solemnly.

"What's going on? After I left Chuzhou, the prefect of Chuzhou did not abide by the rules we set and took action against the grain fields?"

The parallel advance of commerce and industry has made Chuzhou the richest state in China, which has made every Chuzhou person feel sweet. If you want to continue to develop and become rich, you must buy more industrial commerce and create more wealth.

However, the development of commerce and industry cannot be started casually. The most important prerequisite is geographical location. The golden geographical location of Chuzhou has been developed, and major cities have completed urban reforms.

If you want to go further in Chuzhou, the fastest way is to Chuzhou’s 100-mile grain field. The name of Chuzhou’s world-class granary has long been replaced by the world’s number one state, but the name of Chuzhou’s world-class granary has not been banned. Grain fields are not only the foundation of Chuzhou, but also the foundation of China.

So the court and Lu Sheng reached an agreement at the beginning that the Chuzhou grain fields could not be moved by a mu. You can plant them commercially, farmly, but you must not not plant them, let alone plant them.

Seeing this data, Lu Sheng subconsciously believed that only half of the grain fields in Chuzhou should be left, or more than half. As soon as he left Chuzhou, the prefect of Chuzhou attacked the grain fields?

But in an instant, Lu Sheng felt something was wrong. The prefect of Chuzhou was so brave? Even if the prefect of Chuzhou dared, the procuratorate would not be a good meal.

"It's not like that. I have sent someone to check it out. There is no small amount of grain in Chuzhou, and all of them are planted with wheat seedlings. At first, I thought it was an exception, but later, after the reports from various states in China came out, I realized that Dayu was afraid that he would have encountered another disaster.

And this time...it may have been God's will."

"What's the meaning?"

"The grain production of grain in Qinzhou, Wuzhou, Jeju, Qizhou, Zhongzhou, Liangzhou and other places has decreased year by year. Although it is not so obvious, in five years, their grain production has also decreased by 30%.

"What do you say about the farmer's official?"

"There is no clue." Si Lin shook his head and sighed, "This year, I have sent 80 farm officials to disperse China. I will record the whole process from sowing, using the best and best seeds, but the situation after reporting back is not optimistic."

"Do you want me to check?" Lu Sheng asked with his eyes narrowed slightly.

"Can you check man-made disasters or god's will? I just want you to think of a solution for me. The Ministry of Revenue has calculated that if it is only five or six years, but if it lasts for another ten years, a large-scale famine will occur in China.

Moreover, because of the price protection law and the accumulation of good weather in Dayu over the past decade, the grain warehouse is still full and there is no major fluctuation in grain prices. However, if we don’t find a way to deal with it, the grain prices may collapse.”

The Price Protection Law is just a rigid reinforcement measure, but it is useless in the face of the general trend. It does not mean that as long as someone dares to commit crimes against the wind and raises grain prices, just catch them directly, and stabilizes grain prices.

The output is small and the grain price is low. Those grain merchants will lose money even if they have no profit. Under such premise, grain merchants would rather switch careers than do grain trading. If no one does it, if the price of dead grain is still stable, one situation will only happen, and even if you have money, you can't buy grain.

"If you want to forget it, all agricultural prefectures are in this situation, it will be unreasonable." Lu Sheng said hesitantly, "In this way, I will go down to do a survey myself. Fortunately, in Liangzhou, Lanzhou and Shuzhou, these places have begun to plant drought-resistant grains such as sweet potatoes and corn, which can also be filled."

"Well, Lu Sheng, to be honest, this is the first time I hope that someone is doing something. Man-made disasters can still be saved, if it is God's will..."
