Father Han Gaozu

Chapter 649 The cultural baptism from Mr. An

Outside Houde Hall, Liu An frowned.

Thick snow covered the entire city of Chang'an, which was not a bad thing. The farmer pointed out that this was Chang Ruixue, and it would be another bumper harvest year.

The climate seems to be undergoing some kind of change. The officials who observed the astronomy said that compared with previous years, the temperature in various places has dropped significantly, and the number of snow disasters has decreased significantly. Even in Yan and Xia, where the climate is the worst, the situation is gradually improving.

This made Liu An overjoyed, and several ministers struck while the iron was hot, and wrote a letter stating that His Highness is good at governing the country today, so the heavens have blessed and should start offering sacrifices.

Liu An felt that what they said was very reasonable, and specially rewarded them to go to Tingwei to report the matter to Xuan Moru seriously.

Liu An felt puzzled, why these people still fooled him like a child after he had been in power for so long?My father is not here, I can make meritorious deeds, but I must not take credit. My father is very happy to see that I have done a lot of things, but if I follow him to steal credit, saying that I am in the top position, and the sky is blessed, my father will be very unhappy. Well, father's being unhappy is not the most serious thing, the most serious thing is that the group of people under his command will be very unhappy.

After Liu Chang left, Liu An obviously became a lot more mature.

He has a lot of things to be busy with, but he is different from Liu Chang. Liu Chang likes to start and let the officials do the work, but Liu An likes to do everything by himself. He is busy all day long, from morning to night, basically He doesn't have much free time to go hunting. Fortunately, he doesn't like to go hunting, and he is already very content to read and write something occasionally.

He finally understood that he was far behind his father in dealing with politics.

He also thought about sharing important matters with the ministers like his father, and enjoying the benefits for himself, but this is not something that ordinary people can do. How much subjective initiative the ministers can exert depends on the king's opinion. If there is no king To point out the direction to the ministers, the policies formulated by the ministers in the end according to the king's thinking often have nothing to do with the king's expectations.

And he also thought about relying on Zhang Xiang to achieve his goals through Zhang Xiang.

If the prime minister was Zhou Chang, it might still be possible, but Zhang Cang, even Liu Chang couldn't let him devote himself to his work, let alone Liu An?
It also requires skill to sit back and enjoy the success. Liu An found that he couldn't play this game, so he didn't force it, and immediately started the next mode, doing it himself.

Although it would be very exhausting to do so, Liu An is young and strong, full of energy, and he has a high level of education, so there is no problem reading the memorial in person, so everything has been going smoothly so far.

Liu An has established enough prestige, and the officials no longer dare to underestimate him. By weighing the relationship between the local princes and the officials, he has reached a certain balance between the temple and the local area. After Liu An has the means to sanction the officials, he hopes To achieve a balance in the temple, Zhang Xiang does not care about the affairs of the court, he can only win over Chao Cuo, and use Chao Cuo to confront the officials to achieve a balance within the temple.

Liu An is becoming more and more like a king, and his methods are becoming more and more sophisticated. When he pouts, even Liu Chang's arrogant soldiers dare not be too presumptuous.

Liu An stood outside Houde Hall, looking at the heavy snow, with deep sadness in his eyes.

Xia Wuqi stood aside, wearing thick clothes, but still shivering.

On the other side, is a heroic young man who is gradually growing.

The young man looked like a gentleman, with piercing eyes and a slightly pointed face, which seemed to be inexplicably cold. He tilted his head to look at Xia Wuqi, and then spoke.

"Old dog!"

"This doctor was recommended by you. If something happens to my sister-in-law and Youzi, I will cook you!"

Xia Wuqi's face was filled with sorrow, he knew that he would not return to Chang'an.

The big one left, but the little one was still there.

During Liu Chang's departure, Tiying was pregnant and was about to give birth. To be on the safe side, Liu An asked Xia Wuqiu to recommend several famous midwife doctors for him. Xia Wang Liu Ci, who was visiting Chang'an, learned of this. , returned in a hurry, and did not forget to scare Xia Wuqi.

Liu An said displeasedly: "Ci must not be rude to Duke Xia!"

"Duke Xia has worked so hard all these years, how can you, a junior, humiliate you?! Apologize and admit your mistake!"

Liu Ci curled his lips, but he didn't dare to refute in front of his elder brother. After Liu Chang went out to fight, Liu An actually played the role of a kind of father. He wanted to govern not only the world, but also his own family.

Liu Ci was the first to bear the brunt, and I don't know how many tons of beatings he has received from his elder brother in these years. Anyway, he has improved compared to before. Now he is beaten every four days, not once every three days in the past. This is the iron proof that the prodigal son has turned back!

Liu Ci grumbled reluctantly: "Duke Xia, forgive me for being rude"

Xia Wuqi shook his head hastily, he didn't dare to offend this guy, Liu Ci was young, but he had already inherited the lintel, carried forward the family philosophy, through unremitting efforts, he finally succeeded in becoming a well-known playboy, notorious, There are many evil deeds, which can be called a major evil in Chang'an.

There are not many people who dare to provoke him.

The princes and kings all over the country also liked him very much.

Over the years, several princes and kings successively came to the temple to meet Liu An and express their positions.

And the first thing they did after they came to Chang'an was to find a way to beat Liu Ci.

按着赵王的说法，这有种揍老七的快感，让人爱不释手，想要揍刘赐的诸侯王请排队，一个一个来！

Liu Ci was not beaten in vain, his middle fathers gave him money and things after beating him up.

Since Liu Chang developed a new concept of begging-style governance, Liu Ci carried it forward and developed his own concept of sandbag-style governance. Thinking of his hard work for the Great Xia, Liu Ci burst into tears.

"You can't be an old minister. Your Majesty has a straightforward temperament, like a high emperor!"

Liu Ci couldn't help laughing when he heard his praise.

But Liu An gave Xia Wuju a weird look, why do you feel that you are secretly smearing my family tradition?

While they were waiting, a few more people appeared in the distance.

"How's it going?? How's it going??"

Cao Shu's voice was very hasty, Liu An hurried forward, his face full of worry, "Mum, it's windy outside, why do you go out? You don't have to worry."

Cao Shu scolded her head and face, "You are grown up now, how dare you hide such things from me?!"

Liu Liang supported Cao Shu. From the appearance point of view, he was exactly the same as Liu Ci, with the same height and appearance, but Liu Liang's banner was completely different from Liu Ci's. It was hard to imagine that the same face, a Alone and cold, the other one looks so sunny.

Liu Ci looked at his younger brother (brother) displeased, and scolded: "You can't even do this if you tell me to look at my mother?"

Liu Liang explained helplessly: "Mother asked Chengyang King directly. How can I stop it?"

"You won't shut up King Chengyang's mouth?"

"To shut up!"

Liu An reprimanded, and then looked at Cao Shu, "Mother, I just don't want to make you worry too much, it's nothing, you can ask Xia Wuqie. Besides, Ti Ying's medical skills are very good, and she said Maybe they are still teaching those midwives how to deliver babies."

Liu An did not lie.

Because Liu Chang has achieved the ultimate in agricultural business, Liu An can only win through culture.

While strengthening the ideological propaganda of the great unification and establishing the national consciousness of the great Han, he has also carried out many innovations in the medical field, among which the delivery doctor is the one he cares about the most. Liu An has done a thing that has caused countless controversies .

He set up midwifery doctors in the local area mainly made up of women, and Tiying was responsible for sorting out midwifery knowledge and related medical content, and the princess was pulled out to do things.

Liu An noticed the difficulties in delivering babies in the local area. The dystocia rate of pregnant women was extremely high. However, after my father promoted the medical center, the situation did not improve. After investigation, Liu An discovered several reasons. The first reason That is, the medical center cannot come to the door on its own initiative. If a pregnant woman gives birth suddenly, the family members dare not let her go on the way, and there is no time to find a doctor. The old people who have given birth at home or the old people who have given birth in the neighbors will simply carry out the delivery work.

The second reason is that the doctors in the clinic are all men.

The ethos of the big man is not as restrained as it was later, but the men who are in charge of the family still seem to be a little reluctant to let the male doctor do the work of midwifery.

Liu An began to think of a way to solve this problem.

He set up a special school, began to consciously train female doctors, and was willing to give them official positions and titles in the medical hall, hoping to use them to solve difficult problems and save as many lives as possible.

Let women learn new technologies, and let them hold official positions and give them titles? ?
Your Highness, what are you doing here? ?
The women of the big man can have titles, but their titles come from their father or beloved. Or they are directly rewarded by the emperor, such as doing something that makes the emperor very happy, directly naming and rewarding high-ranking titles, but the titles are available to women Not common in groups, usually just a man thing.

Liu An's idea caused a stir in the temple.

The ministers discussed whether women should receive a complete education, whether women should be officials, and whether women should have titles. In the end, the discussion even turned into whether women should have titles. The qualifications for taking the imperial examination, should they be allowed to learn knowledge and so on.

Most of the ministers were against it. Qin State’s attitude towards women was protective and disrespectful. Qin State protected women and did not allow their lovers to beat them, and also allowed them to divorce. The Han Dynasty inherited the Qin State’s system. Divorce is supported only in public opinion, but if you rely on these to say that Qin and Han respected women very much, that would not be right. Women are still treated as accessories. Except for formal wives, the rest of the concubines are personal belongings and can be Donate or buy, even if she is a formal wife, she rarely has a say in front of her beloved, even if she is the emperor's daughter.

Why does the old Liu family always have a son?Because the daughter is not recorded, did not leave a name in the history books.

The princesses we know all left their names because of some great things they did or who they married. For example, if the daughter of Emperor Hanwen hadn't married Zhou Shengzhi and there were records, then there would really be no one. I know he has a daughter.
The debate is still going on, but Liu An has already opened a school to support women to come to study.

Originally, Liu An thought that it would not be easy for women to take the initiative to receive considerable education, but the reality was different from what he thought. On the day the school opened, thousands of women came here, hoping to learn the knowledge of midwifery. able to hold official positions.

Liu An felt that he still underestimated them.

There are almost not enough teachers in charge of teaching.

And they also put forward other requirements. They hope that the Enlightenment Institute can recruit girls to enroll, and even hope to give women the right to participate in the temple assessment, and treat them equally.

The cultural bombing from Liu An made the ministers quarrel.

Cao Shu obviously knew about these things, she still seemed a little worried, she didn't say anything, she stood aside and waited, Liu An hurriedly put her coat on Grandma's body, and waited together.

"How's it going? How's it going??"

Fan Qing's hurried voice could be heard from far away. Fan Qing, Yong'e, Liu Jie, and Cao Shu's three daughters rushed to the scene.

As soon as they came, they started chatting endlessly.

Liu Ci tugged at Liu An's sleeve.

"Brother, didn't you say you want to use women as officials? I think it is feasible. Let them be censors. As soon as the court starts, let them start discussing. Guaranteed that the officials will feel dizzy and agree to everything."

With sharp ears, Liu Ji heard Liu Ci's ridicule.

She raised her head and said displeasedly: "Then why not let us become the King of Xia, since we don't need to know anything to be the King of Xia anyway."

Liu Ci smiled and rubbed her head.

At this moment, the female doctor in charge of delivering the baby came out excitedly.

"Your Highness! Your Highness! Congratulations! Congratulations!!"

Hearing the female doctor's words, Liu An breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves immediately relaxed.

"Boy. It's a boy!"

Liu An trembled all over, and he couldn't tell what it was like, he walked into the hall dully, completely ignoring the people behind him, everyone laughed happily, Liu Ci even hugged Liu Ying, and cheered loudly with.

Holding the little life in his arms, Liu An excitedly sat beside Tiying.

The little guy was wrinkled and sweating profusely, but he still looked at his own child, then looked at Liu An, and said with a smile, "Why do you feel more like Father?"

Liu An looked at the child again, but didn't pay attention just now. What Ti Ying said, it seemed that he really looked like Father.

"It's good to be like Father, as long as you don't look like Ci"

"Tiying, it really is."

Liu An pursed his lips, but didn't know what to say, Ti Ying replied with a smile: "Your Highness, there is no need to thank you."

"How's the situation at the hospital? Nothing major happened, right?"

Liu An shook his head, "Just rest at ease and don't worry about those female doctors. I will solve it as soon as possible."

Ti Ying let out a long sigh, and said with some fear: "Give birth is really a terrible thing. Your Highness was right in what you thought at the beginning. The delivery doctor must pay attention to me. After personally experiencing it, I have more ideas. "

Liu An listened to his wife talking about these things with a smile. How nice it is to have a wife with excellent medical skills.

As Tiying was talking, she suddenly stared at Liu An, "His Royal Highness has this complexion, and the skirt is slightly down. Have you been drinking? Didn't I say it? You can't drink alcohol, your body is especially prone to ringworm .Also, come on, breathe out on me!"

Liu An pursed his lips, okay, there are also bad points.

Holding the child in his arms, he looked at his wife tenderly, "Don't worry, I'll take care of it. It's actually easy to solve. In fact, I haven't used it yet."

The cultural shock caused by Liu An spread to various fields, especially in Taixue, which caused huge repercussions.

On the midfielder in Taixue, the two students put forward their own opinions according to their own ideas.

"If a female title is given, whose title should the child inherit?"

"Both parents have titles, isn't this a mess?"

"What should I do with the rewarded cultivated land?"

"If all the women become officials, then who will run the house? Since ancient times, the male ruled the outside and the female ruled the inside. Doing so will make the inside and the outside uneasy, and the yin and yang will be reversed. It is really not the way to govern the country!"

"Besides, women have always been stupid, short-sighted, chaotic when in danger, and extravagant when in safety. I have never heard of a wise man who has a daughter."

Some students offered their opinions.

And the person sitting in front of him, tall and burly, powerful, looks scary, but actually very gentle, it is Liu Bo.

Liu Bo said calmly: "In these years, the territory of the big man has become very large, and there is obviously a shortage of manpower in all walks of life. It is very necessary for women to participate in all walks of life. This is possible. The act of increasing manpower. Only when there are more people who can do things can a big man prosper. In a family, if both parties can earn money, will the family become richer? The country is prosperous and the people are rich. Why is it not? Appropriate?"

"As for housekeeping, we're not trying to force all women to work as officials. We just don't object. How do they want to run a house? Do they still ask your opinion?"

"As for your saying that women are stupid. May I ask what kind of person your mother is?"

The face of the student on the opposite side suddenly changed. In a big man who governs the country with filial piety, speaking ill of his mother will not only ruin his political life, but his life in the physical sense may also be ruined.

"I'm not being disrespectful to women, it's just that I don't think it's suitable to be an official."

The court meeting started again, and the ministers entered the arena one after another.

The recent big man is not peaceful, because of the issue of women, the officials are arguing fiercely, and the dignitaries seem to be opposed. His Highness has always wanted those mud-legged people to take up official positions like us and divide up our interests. , This is fine at first, but now you even want women to ride on our heads? ?Another one to share the benefits, how can this work? ?They made up their minds that no matter what method His Highness uses this time, they will absolutely disagree.

This court meeting is completely different from the past.

An old woman holding a dragon head and a cane slowly walked into the Hall of Houde, and the officials stood up in horror.

The old woman walked slowly towards the superior position, still muttering.

"I've heard people say. Do you think women don't know how to govern the country and are not worthy of office, and are not worthy of titles?"

ps: There is really no way to update today. I used up the saved part yesterday. I didn’t save the draft at all today. I will get up early and update early tomorrow! !
