Chapter 691 Marriage

"Father, these are some of my experiences in serving the government for several years." Yang Wu handed over a memorial.

The cover has long been frayed, and it looks like care has been taken.

Yang Wu had followed Yang Xiao in farming in Shuofang County for so many years, so he should have something of his own.

The conditions in Shuofang are difficult. Although the major tribes in Mobei have become more honest in recent years, horse bandits are inevitable, and there are also wolves that frequently travel south, attacking pastures and killing cattle, sheep and herdsmen.

In a place where Hu and Han people live together, all kinds of right and wrong are inevitable.

But the harsher the place, the more it trains people.

Yang Wu has also grown up a lot. He has been away from home all year round, and his skin has become tanned due to the sun, and he has become extremely strong.

Yang Zheng looked at his performance carefully.

But what is surprising is that the memorial is not about farming and civil affairs, but about "saving and removing leisure, and removing large and small".

It means streamlining the original chaotic local government system from states, counties, and counties to state and county levels, abolishing administrative units at the county level, eliminating redundant officials, merging some counties with populations that do not meet the standards, and merging some counties that do not have defense tasks.

The Zhechong Prefecture was changed to the Tuntian Division.

It was intended to save court expenses, improve administrative efficiency, and reduce the burden on the people.

"Is this what you think?" Yang Zheng was slightly surprised. His memorial coincided with Yang Zheng's long-standing idea of ​​having better troops and simpler administration.

Historically, the Sui and Tang Dynasties also did this.

The three-level administration of state, county and county is indeed a bit complicated.

The governor of a state has too much territory and too much power.

The brilliance of his performance is that after removing the counties, many new governors will be added, which is equivalent to making the cake bigger and reducing the burden on the court.

"My sons and ministers often ask Governor Yang for advice." Yang Wu said respectfully.

Governor Yang is the newly appointed Governor of Liangzhou, Yang Xiao.

Suo Lingjun is of course Suo Jing.

Both of them are great talents and are leaders among the noble clan.

"Great kindness, but the Qin Dynasty has had a lot of policies in recent years. The people, soldiers, and officials are all exhausted. The current situation is that it is better to be quiet than to move. Your suggestions are very good. When I unify the world, I will vigorously implement them!"

It's good advice, but it's not appropriate right now.

Leave it to the future to unify the world, and take this opportunity to weaken the Central Plains gentry.

"Father is wise!" Yang Wu did not force it.

The most important thing for the Qin State is to accumulate national strength, not to fiddle with it.

The current framework system is sufficient, and people have just adapted to it.

His transformation of a county into a state is no small matter, it will cause serious earthquakes in official circles and among the people.

Good policies also require good timing to implement.

I have to say that it was a wise decision to send my sons to Qingying.

My sons are pretty good.

Yang Yi was proficient in military strategy, Yang Wu was proficient in government affairs, and Yang Hong was fond of astronomy and other academic subjects. They were all close to becoming Ji Kang's disciples.

"How should I reward you?" Yang Zheng was in a good mood, and suddenly felt that he had neglected Chun Niang and her son over the years.

Chun Niang's identity has always been criticized by Qin officials.

I don’t know who the bastard came from, saying that Chun Niang was pregnant with Cao Shuang’s seed and then gave it to Yang Zheng. Otherwise, why wouldn’t Yang Wu look like Yang Zheng now?

What's more, it is said directly that Yang Wu is born in the same mold as Cao Shuang.

The people of Qin were strong and strong, and storytelling and other entertainment activities were popular. The people were relatively active. In recent years, some people had grown their tongues after eating and drinking enough.

Yang Zheng was so angry at first that his mother-in-law Chun Niang only had Yang Wu after several years...

But the people don't care about this and regard it as "secret news"...

Zhao Ahqi once suggested that a large prison should be built and everyone should be imprisoned to see who dares to gossip.

Yang Zheng stared at him with strange eyes. If he did this, wouldn't he be indirectly admitting that he didn't have three hundred taels of silver?

If the people like to pass it on, just wear it, this kind of thing is inevitable.

With a "pop" sound, Yang Wu suddenly knelt down, which startled Yang Zheng, thinking that he had some very excessive request.

"Son, I would like to marry Yang Yunyi, the daughter of Governor Yang!" Yang Wu's face suddenly turned red.

Yang Yi, Yang Wu, and Yang Hong have already reached the age where they should get married.

Yang Zheng was afraid that they would indulge in women too early, so he preferred to be incompetent in this regard, and his concubines were all specially selected women with virtuous character.

Now that I have been granted the title of king, I will indeed get married.

According to common sense, nobles cannot intermarry with nobles, but there is no strict requirement for members of the royal family.

Because Yang Zheng himself married the daughters of noble chiefs.

Although Yang Xiao was born in the Hongnong Yang family, the Hongnong Yang family had already eliminated Yang Xiao, Yang Ji, Yang Jun, Yang Jue and others in order to curry favor with Sima Yan.

At first, Hongnong Yang was very optimistic about Qin.

But Yang Zheng did not change the genealogy to Hongnong. After the Sima family implemented the land occupation system, the Hongnong Yang family completely turned to the Sima family. Even Sima Yan's queen was a daughter of the Yang family.

After all, the most important thing for the gentry was profit, and since Hongnong was under the rule of Jin, the Yang family naturally chose the Sima family.

"Have you thought it through?"

"My son and Yunyi fall in love with each other, and I will never marry her unless she is in my life!" Yang Wu kowtowed heavily.

I didn't expect that he was still an infatuated person, which is so rare.

Behind Yang Yi were Jiang Fane, Qiang people, Yang Hong, Ji Kang and other celebrities. Chun Niang's family had no backing, so there was nothing wrong with marrying Yang Xiao.

Besides, looking at his attitude, he even said that he would not marry her unless she would marry him in this life. If he didn't agree, wouldn't he be beating a mandarin duck?

Yang Zheng smiled and said: "You kid, it turned out that you had a premeditated plan. I asked Duke Lu to act as a matchmaker for you."

Yang Xiao's daughter is indeed a good match.

"Many, thank you very much, father!" Yang Wu was overjoyed and bowed his hands in a salute, "My son, please retire."

Went away happily.

This incident reminded Yang Zheng that it was time to look for princesses for his sons.

The sooner you start a family, the sooner your character will be stable.

I don't know what's wrong with that guy Zhong Hui. He never gets married and spends his whole life like a swing, swinging here and there.

However, this matter is under the control of Queen Xia Houzhi.

In this era, the queen's power was very important. Since the Han and Wei dynasties, there have been many queen mothers who listened to politics behind the curtain.

Empress Dowager Guo of Emperor Ming, Empress Dowager Feng of Northern Wei...

Xia Houzhi had been looking for them for many years, and none of them, including his nephew, were from rich families.

Looking at the list, it can be said that Yang Yi and Yang Hong were from a small household.

Xia Houxu actually married Liu Heng's third daughter Liu Chunyuan...

Although he knew her little thoughts, Liu Heng was really a bit fierce. His daughter...

When I think of Liu Heng and Xia Houxu of Yushu Linfeng standing together, the contrast is too strong.

"Would the queen think about it again?" Yang Zheng reminded kindly.

Xia Houzhi rolled her eyes at Yang Zheng, "Your Majesty, you don't know. Although General Liu looks a bit...but his daughter is a famous beauty in Chang'an City. General Liu regards her as a treasure. In recent years, people seeking marriage have broken through his family's house."

At the threshold, if I hadn’t relied on His Majesty’s favor, I might not have been able to consummate this marriage.”

"Is there such a thing?" Yang Zheng's mind was filled with Liu Heng's rude appearance of scolding and beating others. He really couldn't imagine how beautiful his daughter could be...

However, regarding the Xiahou family, it makes sense that they chose it themselves and did not marry into the noble family.

"How could I, my concubine, harm my own nephew?"

"Then do as you say." Yang Zheng said helplessly.
