Chapter 125, Refuse to choose a concubine
After hearing this, the emperor no longer held out hope, and just said: "Okay, okay! Your poison has been cured, that's good. Recently, my health has become worse, and my two royal brothers have been so angry that my back hurts. It will be good if you come back. Take a rest first. After you have a good rest, I will arrange for you to go to the Ministry of War to practice. This time the pirates were eliminated, and the prince spoke fairly when he came back. He said that the pirates were successfully eliminated, and that was all your credit."

Prince Li Yong thought that Li Yao would definitely be in bad luck if he fell into the sea, and the chance of coming back alive was almost zero, so he very generously credited Li Yao with the credit for the suppression of pirates to show his high integrity and magnanimity. Tolerant, respectful to brothers and sisters.If he knew that Li Yao could come back alive, he would never take the credit for Li Yao.

Li Yao also knew it well, and said with a smile: "How can the suppression of pirates be all the work of my subordinates? His Royal Highness is just being humble. It was only through the concerted efforts of everyone that we were able to suppress the pirates. However, although the suppression was temporarily Some pirates were killed, but I believe that to completely eliminate pirates and bandits, the most fundamental way is to improve agriculture and make the people rich. If everyone can have enough food and clothing, who will be willing to do the things like chickens and dogs stealing?"

The emperor raised his eyelids and asked: "Do you have any good ideas to improve people's livelihood problems? Every year in the Wei Dynasty there is either drought, locusts, floods, or epidemics. How easy is it to make everyone have enough food and clothing?"

The emperor was a little surprised at his son's change.Due to his frail health since childhood, this son has never cared much about people's livelihood and political affairs. He only cares about the trends in the medical field.When I came back this time, I took the initiative to bring up the issue of people's livelihood, and even cared about the people's food and clothing.His sons have never cared much about the common people in the world. They only know how to fight openly and secretly for the throne.

Li Yao dedicated a book to the emperor with both hands: "Father, I accidentally got a strange book. This book records a lot of very important agricultural knowledge. Planting food according to the methods recorded in this book can greatly improve the yield of food." The yield per mu will bring our country’s grain production into a new era.”

The emperor had been suffering from the lack of food in Wei for many years. After getting this book, he flipped through it. Although he didn't understand it, he cherished it very much: "Ah Yao, it's rare for you to have such an adventure and care so much." People's livelihood issues. Have you asked someone to make a copy of this book? Since it can greatly increase the yield of grain per acre, people in charge of agronomy must pass on this planting method and vigorously promote it in our country of Wei. We must improve our country's The grain output will allow everyone to have enough to eat.”

"Father, I have this intention. This wonderful book, when I got it, I had several copies copied." Li Yao did have people copy it.He was afraid of losing such a strange book accidentally, so of course he had to copy a few more copies.

"You got this book, I'll leave it to you!" The emperor looked at Li Yao with admiration because of this book.This son did not take possession of such a wonderful book, but dedicated it to him and the entire Wei State. This was something that none of his other sons could do.

Li Yao said: "Erchen has already had many copies of this book copied. When Erchen got this book, he sent people to his fiefdom to start a trial of planting this kind of rice. Now because of the rice yield per acre Because it is not high and requires heavy taxes, farmers in many places are unwilling to farm, leaving many fields uncultivated. If high-yielding rice can be grown, more people in Wei will be willing to farm."

"Well, that's true. If you can get this wonderful book, it must be God's will to make our Wei Kingdom strong and prosperous."

The emperor was very pleased to see that Li Yao was so concerned about people's livelihood issues.His eyes swept around Li Yao's body, looking at his son, the more he looked at him, the more satisfied he became.On the contrary, when I thought about the prince and Li Ji, the more I thought about it, the more disappointed I became.

After the emperor and Li Yao finished talking about business, he suddenly remembered that his son had never had a concubine and was still alone.I mentioned before that I wanted to choose a concubine for him so that he would have someone to take care of him, but he always said that he was not in good health and didn't want to delay others.Because the doctors and doctors at the imperial hospital said that Li Yao would not live to be 25 years old, and no daughter of a wealthy family was really willing to be a widow, the emperor never chose a concubine for Li Yao.

Now that his health has improved, he naturally has to choose several famous ladies to be his side concubines, and he also has to choose a main concubine.The emperor thought about this and said: "Ah Yao, you were not in good health before, so you never chose the crown prince or accepted a concubine. Now that you are in good health, I asked the Ministry of Rites to send a portrait of a marriageable lady from a noble family in Shangjing. In your house. You choose first, and if you choose, I will marry you. You choose a few more, first choose a main concubine, and also choose a few side concubines. You are not young, hurry up and give birth to me. Some fat little grandsons.”

When Li Yao heard this, he immediately said: "Father, I don't want to choose a concubine for the time being."

If you choose a concubine, it can only be Rong Yue.If it weren't for Rong Yue, he would never marry a concubine.

As soon as this thought came to his mind, Li Yao was stunned by himself!It turns out that he already has an obsession with Rong Yue and refuses to marry anyone other than Qing?But Rong Yue didn't seem to be like this towards him.The little girl only regarded him as a patient, and at most he had a contractual status.Now, this little girl has even canceled the contract and given him his freedom.

When the emperor heard Li Yao say that he didn't want to choose a concubine, his expression was really unhappy: "You are 21 years old, and you still don't want to choose a concubine? Even if your brothers are younger than you, they all have princesses. In the past, it was because of your poor health. Well, I can't help but force you. Now that you are in good health, how can you delay your heir?"

After the emperor finished speaking, he suddenly seemed to think of something. He glanced at Li Yao again and asked: "Is there something wrong with your body? I have heard rumors before that you are inhumane and so on, and there are also rumors that you have a mental illness. I didn’t believe it at that time.”

Li Yao immediately shook his head and said with a smile: "Father, I don't want to delay the heir, and I don't have any bad habits as you think. In fact, I already have a three-year-old son. He is smart and smart. I went to study in the academy.”

"Ah?" The emperor was really surprised now, "You have a three-year-old son? And you went to the academy to study? That means I have a three-year-old grandson? Then why didn't you bring me with you? Come back and show me? Who is her mother? What is her background? Which famous family is she from?"

Li Yao knew that if he said it, his father would be alarmed, but he had to say it because he wanted Rong Bao to recognize his ancestor and return to the clan, and he also wanted to help Rong Bao get a title. He couldn't let Rong Bao be so unclear: "Father, , there was some misunderstanding between Erchen and her, which has not been forgiven yet, so she took care of the child for the time being. Before, Erchen did not know that there was such a son, and he had been living with his mother. Neither mother nor son knew about it. The identity of a son-in-law."

The emperor was stunned for a moment: "What misunderstanding? We already have children, so what misunderstanding can there be? If she has a good background, as long as she is innocent, for the sake of giving birth to your eldest son, You can make her a princess. If she comes from a bad background, and you have children, you can also make her a concubine."
