Let's say that Li Shimin was taken to the No. 1 Hospital, and the outside was full of people.
There are common people and officials.
After everyone heard the news, they all came!
They were all very worried about Li Shimin's health.
I am also worried about the future of Datang!
No one in the hospital dared to take it lightly.
This is the highest level of existence they have ever taken over.
The other party is the supreme ruler of the Tang Dynasty!
Therefore no one dares to be careless.
I don't know how long it took.
Sun Simiao and Li Ke took the lead in coming out of the emergency room.
There are a lot of doctors at the rear!
At this time, the expressions of the two people were relaxed.
Queen Changsun came over and asked.
"Master Sun, how is your Majesty doing now?"
"It was delivered in time, so it's no big deal. However, we need to make His Majesty less angry in the future, otherwise it will easily attack his heart and blood! When necessary, we should also provide His Majesty with some entertainment activities. Don't be nervous every day, as it is not good for your health. Also,
Go to bed early and don't drink alcohol... As long as you do these things, you will recover as before."
Everyone suddenly realized.
I see.
Concubine Yang said:
"If that's the case, then I'll have to persuade Your Majesty later!"
Li Shimin has an impatient temper. He has been like this before. It is a bit difficult to correct it, but for the sake of his life, he still has to change it!
Empress Changsun suddenly turned her head.
"Concubine Yang, thanks to you this time, otherwise..."
She didn't dare to say any more, and Li Shimin almost...
In that case, the entire Tang Dynasty might be in chaos, maybe Li Min would come to power directly, or maybe... there are more possibilities!
"What did my sister say? Let's go in and take a look?"
So, a group of people went inside to visit Li Shimin.
But when I saw Li Shimin, I saw that his face was full of displeasure.
No one knows what to say about him.
I’m afraid we can only wait and wait for the future.
In the end, Li Shimin only stayed in the hospital for one day before returning to the Daming Palace.
What happened this time also made him more careful.
No one dared to get particularly angry, and at the same time, no one dared to provoke him too much.
After all, this is no joke.
Therefore, during this period of time, ministers will choose the best news for them.
Fortunately, there is no particularly bad news right now.
However, on this day, a piece of news came, which was neither good nor bad.
The top floor of Daming Palace.
In front of Li Shimin was an eunuch, holding a piece of paper in his hand.
What was written above was a telegram from the Tibetan frontier.
"Li Jing is someone I value after all. He was able to force the Tubo people to retreat hundreds of miles in a row! Not bad, not bad!"
Li Shimin said.
He is feeling better and this news makes him feel better.
He then read on.
Seeing this, he frowned.
"That traitor actually wants to leave Tubo and go to Tianzhu?"
That's incredible. Does Li Chengqian want to give up on Tubo?
"Come here, let someone write to Tianzhu, and they will search for him on his behalf! I want to see if that kid can escape?"
The current relationship between Datang and Tianzhu is good.
Therefore, if they write to Tianzhu, maybe Tianzhu will consider his proposal.
"yes!"
As the eunuch left.
At this time Dai Zhou suddenly came to visit.
"Greetings to Your Majesty!"
Dai Zhou said.
"What's wrong? What's going on?"
"Your Majesty, the census on Chang'an is now over!"
After Li Min proposed reforming household registration, Li Shimin also realized that Datang had to go through a census every year.
It happened to be the end of another year, so Dai Zhou was asked to take care of this matter.
No, Dai Zhou brought the results and informed Li Shimin.
"Huh? Tell me, what changes have happened this year?"
"In this year, Chang'an gave birth to 100,000 more newborns, reaching 2.3 million. According to the Sixth Prince's calculation, the birth rate is 40 per 1,000 people. It is expected that there will be an increase of 200,000 next year.
.This is just the population of Chang'an. If you include other places, it's more than this math."
"What's causing the population explosion?"
This is the fastest population increase since Li Shimin came to power.
Forty per thousand is above human history, and it is also at the forefront.
"The quality of life has improved, people's intention to have children has become more prominent, and there are a lot of benefits. In the past, people had more money... and other aspects have made people more willing to have children. Therefore, the population will explode faster.
"
Dai Zhou listed many aspects of information.
As I said, all this is because of Li Min.
It can be said that if it were not for Li Min's industry, Chang'an's population would not have increased so fast.
He said this is well-founded.
Of all the places in the Tang Dynasty, there were only two places where such a huge growth occurred.
The first is Chang'an, and the second is Taizhou.
There are no special changes in other places from the previous year. In other words, the changes are not as big as those in these two places.
Chang'an's success was precisely because of Li Min.
As for Taizhou, it’s probably because of Su Mei.
The root cause is Li Min's relationship.
The inner relationship is a relationship that others cannot see.
"Okay, if this is the case, the population of our Datang City will increase by hundreds of thousands in just one year. If this continues, it will only get better and better!"
Li Shimin said very happily.
This was perhaps the best news he had heard in a while.
But Dai Zhou said: "Your Majesty, other problems have also emerged at the moment."
"Oh? What's the problem?"
"The construction of some facilities has not kept up. Buildings such as hospitals and schools cannot guarantee the future increase in population. Although Datang is changing, as time goes by, after the future population explosion, the entire Chang'an City will only become crowded.
, at that time, we may have to expand outwards!”
Dai Zhou's words made Li Shimin think deeply.
"Yes, facilities need to be added. If it's a hospital, we can build another one. For buildings, we need to speed up the court's approval, encourage people to build houses, make the environment better, and encourage people to have children, even if it means spending money!
"
Li Shimin often reads Li Min's Zhenguan newspaper.
I was attracted by a professional term above.
That is the demographic dividend.
Demographic dividend, an economic term, refers to a country's working-age population accounting for a large proportion of the total population and a relatively low dependency ratio, which creates favorable demographic conditions for economic development. The entire country's economy shows high savings, high investment and high growth.
situation.
Therefore, he encourages procreation without thinking.
And spend money to encourage people to have children.
"Yes, Your Majesty!"
"Okay, let's do this quickly! Make sure to make plans before next year's Spring Festival!"
"I know! Then I'll go now!"
"Go for it!"
With Dai Zhou leaving.
But at this time, Concubine Yang and Empress Changsun appeared.
Along with them, there were two eunuchs, and what they were holding in their hands was surprising.
