After checking the box to make sure that all the records were there, Li Yuanjia did not take a closer look.
In fact, he didn't even need to look at it to know that those statistics were very good - his own girl could marry that idiot Cheng Chuliang at the age of ten. How dare people think about it? And whether it's the royal family or ordinary nobles, more or less
We also know that it is very dangerous for a woman to give birth to a child before her body is fully grown. How many ordinary people care about this?
Not to mention that there are no various contraceptive measures these days. When it gets dark, isn't it just creating a villain?
Therefore, he already knew the results from the various data sent by Li Lingkui last year. More statistics this year are unlikely to change this status quo. Moreover, Li Yuanjia also knows that this phenomenon will continue for thousands of years!
Whether it's East or West, it's the same.
This will actually be the case in Europe and the United States in the future. Not only is having children too early, but actually having more children will also have a great impact on lifespan. So many people think that the development of contraceptive technology is a major step forward in liberating women. This is really not the case.
It doesn’t make sense…
That's too far.
After being busy for a while, Li Yuanjia went to bed early.
I don't know how long it took, but a familiar voice sounded in his ears: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, it's time to get up! Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."
Then when Li Yuanjia was woken up by Fang Fengzhu in a daze, he looked outside the glass window and frowned subconsciously: "Fengzhu, what time is it?"
"No, there's still more than an hour left."
While greeting Chun Yan and the others to come up with their words, Fang Fengzhu chuckled and said: "But if you plan too hard, you won't have enough time... It will take time to rush to the palace, so your Majesty, you can't stay in bed."
"Well……"
With a twitch of his eyelids, Li Yuanjia immediately woke up.
Yes, today is the first day of the Yuan Dynasty.
Li Yuanjia didn't have to go to the usual morning court. This was specially approved by the emperor... Maybe in the eyes of others, this was the emperor's punishment, but everyone in the know knew that this was the unique favor of the King of Han.
But today is different. If he doesn't go to the great meeting on Yuan Day, Li Laoer will beat him up.
"When the sky comes to dawn, thousands of officials pay their respects, and on the first day of spring, all things are known." Although the author of this poem was not born yet, he vividly described the situation of the court meeting in the Yuan Dynasty of the Tang Dynasty. There is also another line of his poem "A piece of
"Colorful clouds greet the dawn, and thousands of red candles sparkle the spring", which illustrates the importance of the Yuan Dynasty meeting - all the officials lined up according to their rank and position at dawn, and the candle-lit honor guard is known as the "Fire City".
At dawn, the officials would line up in Daxing Hall. As the prince, Li Yuanjia had to stand in the front row and could not be late.
So after a moment of excitement, Li Yuanjia got up from the bed.
The maids who had been prepared long ago naturally swarmed forward. Some washed Li Yuanjia's face, some combed his hair, and the rest had prepared clothes and shoes, waiting to put them on him.
Anyway, Li Yuanjia is used to it now.
Let’s not talk about whether it will be weird if you have to do everything yourself. After getting used to this kind of service, it is not easy to go back to the past state of doing everything by yourself. After all, Jian Jian
The saying that it is easy to enter luxury but difficult to move from luxury to frugality was universal in that era.
So just standing there enjoying the service of several people, Li Yuanjia didn't feel any uneasiness.
Get used to it.
Although the clothes of the ancients did not have much fabric and few colors, they were not simple at all. Especially the clothes of the nobles and nobles were quite complicated. As for Li Yuanjia, who is at the prince level, he just wears simple clothes on weekdays.
It doesn't take much time, but on a big day like the Yuan Ri Dynasty Meeting, putting on that outfit...
Fang Fengzhu took matters into his own hands, and it took a long time to wear a stick of incense on him!
Then, of course, it’s time to have breakfast.
Fang Fengzhu and the others were all extremely nervous, fearing that they would delay today's court meeting. However, Li Yuanjia, who attended the court meeting on New Year's Day last year, knew that if he didn't eat before going, he would suffer this morning.
The ceremony of the Yuan Dynasty meeting was really smelly and long!
According to the regulations of the Ministry of Rites of the Tang Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty meeting was held in the Daxing Hall. In addition to the civil and military officials... ahem, the big shots in the court, the hall also had to display ritual music, treasures and jade from past dynasties, and chariots and carriages, making every effort to appear elegant.
The ceremonial guard is large and solemn. When the emperor crowns himself at the throne, the prince, empress, officials, envoys and relatives of the emperor all wear grand court clothes to attend.
That kind of momentum is rarely seen in normal times.
And during this process, the Crown Prince Li Chengqian, the princes, and the princes all had to present congratulatory gifts, Zhongshu Ling had to present the local congratulatory form, and Huangmen Shilang had to present auspicious omens...all kinds of weird auspiciousness; the Ministry of Household Affairs
The Minister of Rites must report the contributions of the various states, and the Minister of Rites must report the contributions of the Tibetans...
The big guys showed up one by one and presented gifts in piles.
Otherwise, why would the governors of various states in the world send their subordinates back to Chang'an when the Chinese New Year is approaching? To put it bluntly, in addition to giving gifts to the emperor, they also want to take this opportunity to show their loyalty!
How long does it take just to recite it once?
Li Yuanjia didn't think he could survive until the emperor gave him a banquet if he didn't eat and drink enough. So although it was still dark outside, the breakfast carefully prepared by Yu Niang still whetted his appetite and he ate a drawer of xiaolongbao.
, and also drank two bowls of porridge.
When the time was almost up, Li Yuanjia was ready to set off.
"Well, are everything ready?"
Before going out, Li Yuanjia glanced at Fang Fengzhu, who was explaining things to his servants not far away, and Li Yuanjia suddenly asked in a low voice.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we are ready!"
Bowing slightly, Han Lucheng also whispered: "According to your instructions, I only prepared one side and put it in a small box... Your Majesty, are you sure you don't want to put it in the gift list?"
When he said these words, Han Lucheng was slightly uneasy.
It was a common practice to "pay tribute" to the emperor at the Yuan Dynasty meeting, and Li Yuanjia, the younger brother, was no exception, and generally he had to follow certain regulations... Of course, the emperor would also give something in return, basically
You won’t lose money. But normally, the donated items must be put into the gift list.
But this time, the king insisted on taking it with him personally, which made Han Lucheng a little uneasy.
"Haha, don't worry."
Seeing Han Lucheng's expression, Li Yuanjia knew what he was thinking. He waved his hand and said with a smile: "If you put the gift list in, your Majesty will probably not even look at it. How can it be better than sending it to me personally? Don't even think about it.
There are so many... By the way, let someone prepare the other side for me, I will use it when I come back..."
