"But the remaining people will be arranged well," Li Xingchen said in a low voice. "For the adult Chen clan members, those who obey me will be arranged to serve as local officials or college teachers. If there are others who are dissatisfied, I can let them go."
They went to farm, but they had to be monitored. The other minors were all sent to the Jinling Academy to be built in the future."
Li Xingchen was not worried about these people. Historically, they were obedient, so much so that Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty and Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty later felt a little embarrassed, and even recalled many of the Chen royal family who had been exiled to the frontiers back to the capital. What's more, Li Xingchen was able to support them anyway.
With the title of son-in-law of the Chen family here, he does not intend to treat these Chen family's heirs harshly.
Of course, Li Xingchen actually gathered these people in Jinling Academy to facilitate his control.
Lechang nodded slightly. Li Xinchen's actions were definitely considered kind. If it were anyone else, he would have been given a male partner and a female reward.
"And Ning Yuan..." Lechang said immediately, looking straight at Li Xingchen, "This girl is already in her prime, what do you think?"
After receiving Lechang's suspicious look, Li Xingchen waved his hands helplessly: "What does this mean? I don't have any ideas."
"That girl from Ningyuan is obsessed with her husband, and her thoughts are clearly visible to me." Lechang said quietly, "She grew up with my concubine, and she has a carefree temper. How can she hide it?"
Li Xingchen froze slightly, and the images from the past suddenly appeared in his mind, the majestic little loli who opened her arms to block him, and the girl who threw herself into his arms and cried loudly today...
For this sister-in-law, Li Xingchen actually didn't have much nostalgia, mainly because the girl was still too young. In Li Xingchen's eyes, she was just a little girl, but thinking about the softness of the delicate body in her arms today and the
The fragrance of the hair, and then thinking about the fact that this is the famous Mrs. Xuanhua in history, Li Xingchen's voice became a little weaker for a while:
"Someone doesn't..."
"Sister Xiang'er was not much older than Ning'er when she followed you." Lechang interrupted Li Xingchen, looking like "You are a lolicon, I have seen through you a long time ago."
Li Xingchen touched his nose, could this be the same?
Lechang sighed: "It's okay, I'm giving you an advantage, but my husband must agree to be my concubine. Ning'er is still young..."
"I'm not a beast." Li Xingchen said dissatisfiedly, "This is nothing!"
Lechang nodded slightly, and then said: "Tomorrow, the officials should start to present their instructions to your husband. After three requests and three concessions, your husband can claim the title of emperor. After that... our family will not be a small family, but a small family."
It is the home of the world."
Li Xingchen was startled for a moment and frowned slightly. The world belongs to the emperor, so this statement is correct, but Li Xingchen always felt it was strange.
"So from now on, the husband should also have the power of an emperor at home. The title 'husband' cannot be used anymore..."
Li Xingchen decisively pulled Lechang onto his knees, stretched out his hand and slapped the pert buttocks: "What did you say!"
"But..." Lechang raised his head aggrievedly.
Li Xingchen patted him twice more in displeasure, and sighed that his wife's little butt was really soft and comfortable: "You are not allowed to say such things, no matter what position someone goes to, you are his wife and concubines, it doesn't matter.
view of dignity and inferiority.”
After a pause, Li Xingchen said calmly: "What I want is not a cold harem, but a warm home."
Lechang bit his lower lip and looked at Li Xingchen, not knowing what to say. Li Xingchen said in a low voice: "I have already thought about the rules of the palace. Leer, you will be a mother in the world in the future, so you might as well tell me now
You. First, the outer court is in charge of the bodyguards, and the inner court is in charge of the chamberlains and female officials. Secondly, all the maids in the harem are free. Only female officials and above can be visited by the emperor."
"How is this possible!" Lechang suddenly became anxious. She grew up in the palace and was very familiar with the rules of the palace. This... this is going to break the etiquette!
Li Xingchen said in a deep voice: "This is the rule of our family. Someone is the head of the family, and someone has the final say!"
Lechang was speechless. Not to mention, Li Xingchen's adoptive father Li Cheng had passed away, and he had not joined the Hongnong Yang family, so he was really the biggest in the Li family.
Looking at the speechless Lechang, Li Xingchen smiled: "So you, the future queen, have a long way to go."
Lechang had already thrown himself into Li Xingchen's arms and hugged him tightly.
Li Xingchen was reducing the size of the harem, so he could naturally leave more love to the few people they already had. This naturally moved Lechang. But she also wondered what was different.
Above the female officers... the range is smaller, but the cunning man still leaves a lot of room for himself. As for the candidates for the female officers... Lechang naturally knows how many of them there are now.
Personal maids are for sure, but we have to find some talented people later.
For example... Zhang Lihua?
——————————-
"Reducing the harem? This is not possible!" King Gu Ye and Pei Yi said in unison.
After entering the capital, King Gu Ye, the "Taiwan Balm", resigned from his post as Minister of General Affairs and began to take charge of etiquette matters. In fact, it was mainly to prepare for Li Xingchen to become emperor. Originally, King Gu Ye was Guanglu Qing, so he asked him to
Naturally, I am Feng's wife when I come to do this, so I am familiar with the road.
Pei Yi was also a veteran of three dynasties and Pei Zilie's father. This time Li Xingchen also made him the deputy of King Gu Ye.
The two people entered the palace originally on behalf of the civil servants to submit a petition for admission, but before they could speak, they were startled by Li Xinchen's words. Gu Yewang and Pei Yi were probably the only ones who had the guts to talk to Li Xinchen like this.
This is someone who is close to Li Xingchen.
"This..." King Gu Ye said weakly, "In the harem, even the maids should all be concubines of His Highness... Otherwise, how can the royal bloodline be passed on?"
"Could it be that if the number of people in the palace decreases by a few hundred, a certain person will have no descendants?" Li Xingchen frowned, "What is the most important problem that I, a big man, need to face now? It's impossible for Mr. Gu not to know, right?"
King Gu Ye was startled for a moment. The problem must be population... there is not enough population, land, and talents. It's all in vain.
Li Xingchen glanced at Gu Ye Wang: "I don't want to have thirty or forty children. Yin Jian is not far away, Mr. Gu, it is not a bad thing to have a small harem. Let some of the ones left by the previous dynasty go out, and the rest are all subject to the queen's arrangements.
, under the unified management of the female officers. The chamberlain...keep it for now, I will use it for my own use."
King Gu Ye and Pei Yi looked at each other and smiled bitterly. It was really surprising that Li Xingchen proposed such a reform at this time.
A living example of Chen Xu is here.
Moreover, as the founding monarch, Li Xingchen reduced the size of the harem under the current population shortage. It is indeed... a good way to increase people's favorability. (To be continued)
