"Wow--"
The cry of a newborn baby rang out in the house, which made Li Yue's heart drop.
"Congratulations to the Governor, mother and son are safe!" The maid immediately came out to announce.
Li Yue was overjoyed. The birth of his son not only extended his life, but also stabilized the hearts of the entire Yanzhou people.
Blood relationship is the strongest bond in this era.
The reason why Murong Jun, Yao Yizhong, and Fu Hong are so arrogant is because they have a bunch of brothers and nephews supporting them behind their backs?
The Five Husbands disrupted China, their clothes moved south, and the pattern of division between the north and the south has been formed. The chaos in the north will not be quelled in a short time. It is likely to take two, three or even several generations.
After his son was born, Li Yue was closely connected with this era.
If a figure like Murong Ke or Murong Chui emerges from the descendants, the old Li family will be stable for at least two generations.
If Emperor Li Er comes out directly, he can directly sweep the sixteen kingdoms...
While he was having sex, there was another loud cry in the next room.
"Captain, double happiness comes to our door, double happiness comes to our door, the second lady is also pregnant, mother and child are safe, mother and child are safe!" The maid's face turned into a smile.
Xin Can stroked his gray beard and his lips trembled slightly.
Li Yue was happy to have a son, and the Xin family was stable in Yanzhou.
Although Xin Can's abilities are not very good, he is very powerful. With the enlightenment of presiding over the Shangwu Hall, he has become more and more old-fashioned. Even General Heiyun dared to point his nose and scold him.
Li Yue paced back and forth in front of the door. He didn't even know where to put his hands and feet. He was about to squeeze in to see his son, but was blocked by the maids and women. He giggled: "Madam is giving birth, and the governor is not allowed in. Zhan It is unlucky to have foul smell."
Li Yue laughed and said, "Reward, ten stones of food for each person! Five stones for everyone else in the house!"
"Thank you, Commander!" The surroundings were filled with joy.
"Has the Governor given a name?" Xin Can came over.
According to custom, the name should be given by a virtuous elder, but Xincan and virtue seem to be incompatible. Since becoming Li Yue's ancestor-in-law, his whole person has become energetic.
Moreover, Li Yue didn't want his two children to have too much connection with the Xin family, and naming them wasn't a big deal.
"The boss is Li Yi, the second is Li You." Li Yue opened his mouth.
There were rules in naming in the Han and Wei Dynasties. Single names were the most valuable, and jade and vertical heart were often used as the radicals.
Li Yue chose to be alone, which meant that no matter what his son's future achievements would be, he should first be a normal person.
"Good name, good name!" Xin Can praised, but there was a look of disappointment on his face.
Taking this opportunity, Li Yue also pardoned the prisoners in Yanzhou and sent the good news to Cui Jin, Wei Shan, Xu Cheng, Liu Qi and others in other towns.
They have been waiting for this day for a long time.
Li Yue originally wanted to be exempted from taxes and corvee for one year, but the entire Yanzhou had just been stable for a year, and it was the time to accumulate war preparations, so there was no such condition.
After the news spread, officials and powerful men in various counties under the rule sent gifts one after another.
There are many valuable items among them...it costs a lot of money, and the poorer ones also offer gold, silver, and silk.
There was a whole room piled up.
Li Yue always thought that everyone was like him, poor and suffering from the northwest wind, but now it seems that it is only the common people who are poor, and these officials and powerful people are still living a good life.
What Li Yue couldn't bear the most was the gift that the military general also sent.
Hu Yanhei, who was guarding Xuanyuan Mountain, actually sent seven pieces of jade.
Li Yue didn't know how much other people's families were, but Hu Yanhei couldn't even marry a woman. After three months in Xuanyuan Mountain, he could spend so much money...
"The rise of the Western Han Dynasty was due to diligence and frugality, and the fall of the Wei and Jin Dynasties was due to extravagance. The Central Plains is surrounded by enemies on all sides. If the trend of luxury and enjoyment arises, it will be destroyed in a matter of seconds!"
At the banquet, Li Yue said in front of the generals.
At the beginning of the founding of the Western Han Dynasty, Liu Bang couldn't find horses of the same color, so he could only count them with cows. Emperor Wen of the Han Dynasty wore patched clothes and worked in the fields, creating the Wenjing rule and accumulating wealth for Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty to attack the Xiongnu in the north.
In the middle and late period of the Cao Wei Dynasty, they carried out large-scale construction projects and were proud of luxury from top to bottom. By the time of Sima Jin, they actually fought for wealth.
The Sima family's rapid decline was closely related to this.
If a person is addicted to enjoyment, is he still willing to go to the battlefield to fight with barbarians? Are you still willing to work conscientiously?
The Black Cloud Army has reached its current position because of its desperate spirit of being barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. This is the foundation for the Black Cloud Army to gain a foothold in troubled times.
Li Yue kept looking outside, somewhat ignoring the inside.
Not everyone wants to "get rid of the Jie slaves and restore our country". Most human nature is content with a small amount of money.
"Where did these gold, silver, coins and silk come from and where did they put them back? What happened in the past is past. If anyone takes bribes and violates the law in the future, don't blame the ruthless military law." Li Yue said with a cold face.
A wedding banquet broke up unhappy.
However, Li Yue has no regrets. No matter how good the system is, it is slowly destroyed by human relationships.
If you don't prevent it now, it will be even more difficult to manage it in the future. It is easy to move from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to move from luxury to frugality.
Li Yue asked Xin Can to draft an order on diligence and frugality. It was written in a literate manner and was quite troublesome to read. Most people in this era were illiterate. No matter how elegant the writing was, others would not be able to understand it.
This order must be seen not only by officials, but also by military generals, and even by all the people.
It's not that Li Yue is making a fuss out of a molehill, but that the atmosphere is bad and cannot be cured no matter how hard it is fixed.
Recuperate and accumulate wealth is not for these people to enjoy.
"Two years ago, you were hungry, cold, homeless, and precarious. Now that things have just improved, you are eager to enjoy yourself. Do you want to abandon your homeland occupied by the barbarians? Do you want to forget the hatred of your parents, wife, and children who were killed by the barbarians? I As the governor of Henan Province, I have to be diligent and alert every day. I don’t value the color of my clothes, and I don’t value the taste of my food. How about that! After today, the strict and extravagant style will prevail. The prefects, school captains, county magistrates, and captains must set an example and regulate the people. Follow the good customs of diligence and thrift..."
Li Yue wrote six to seven hundred words eloquently, and asked Xin Can to polish the pen, then copied it and sent it out.
No matter how severe the verbal reprimand is, it is useless.
Li Yue selected a scout camp of 500 people to serve as school officials to inspect the local areas, spy on the generals within the territory, and inspect the local customs.
He was only responsible for Li Yue, who was the eyes and ears.
The position of school official existed during the Three Kingdoms period, and both Wei and Wu had it. Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty had an embroidered messenger, which is nothing new.
Today is different from the past. Heiyun Mountain is no longer a mountain with tens of thousands of people, but a land spanning two states in the Central Plains with half a million people. The cost of governance has not only increased.
After the establishment of school affairs, it created a great deterrent to the local area.
The first person to be arrested was Hu Yanhei from Xuanyuan Mountain. This guy was poor and scared before. After becoming the captain of Xuanyuan Mountain, he began to swell. He had more than 20 women and his hands and feet became unclean. At the foot of Xuanyuan Mountain Private checkpoints are set up so that people who pass by must leave something behind.
Relying on Li Yue's identity as a confidant, even Cao Kan's salt transport soldiers dared to intercept him.
Remembering the grace of saving his life, Li Yue spared his life, removed him from all official positions, and let him live his life guarding his field.
