Controlling mountains and rivers since the Warring States Period

Chapter 289: Nurturing
“So, raising a child is not an easy thing!”

On the snowy mountains of Qilian,
He Bo originally invited a bunch of dead guys to play snowball fight with him, but for some reason, the topic suddenly turned to having children.

Maybe it was because the dead ghosts were concerned about whether the Han Dynasty would perish in the second generation like the Qin Dynasty, so they often went to the human world to watch the ups and downs in Liu Bang's harem.

It is also possible that because of this snowball fight, Queen Dowager Xuan came with King Huiwen of Qin, Ying Si.

This couple has been struggling in the underworld for many years.
Loved, hated, done.

Now they are finally reconciled and are dating happily again.

As for Queen Wei of Qin who is also in the underworld, and Prince Yiqiu who volunteered to be used as a hammer by Queen Dowager Xuan?

Ugh……

He Bo felt so sad for them that he cried.

Fortunately, there was no major conflict within their family.

Ying Si would occasionally go to play with Wei.
Queen Dowager Xuan would occasionally go to other cities in the underworld with Prince Yiqiu to relax and have fun.

He Bo initially felt something was wrong and asked the strange couple, "Is this okay?"

The Queen Mother Xuan said confidently, "Ying Si has two women, and I have two men, isn't that right?"

Ying Si beside him didn't care, "Yes, that's fine!"

"Oh, yes, yes!"

He Bo was confused by their attitudes and returned to his palace nodding all the way.

When he sat on the throne, he looked at Ximen Bao on his right, and then at Lao Guixi on his left:
I was sandwiched between two old ghost officials who had very few hairs on their heads.

Then he realized, “This is not right!”

Who could have thought?
The underworld actually achieves gender equality in this way!

but,

This situation, after all, is someone else's private matter.

Since there is no problem with the parties involved,
He Bo didn't bother asking any more questions.

At most, he was curious about the reactions of King Wu of Qin, Ying Dang, and King Zhao of Qin, Ying Ji.

The latter was drinking and having fun with his two half brothers at the time, and just gave the ghost a look when he heard the words.

The former doesn't matter.

Because King Wu Yingdang was busy making an appointment to fight with the King of Western Chu.

Ever since the death of this amazingly brave man, Ying Dang has often wandered around hell, hoping that the first person he sees when he pokes his head out of hell will be himself.

And finally it came out after much anticipation.
Ying Dang stretched out his hand and pulled Xiang Yu up, wanting to form a "unparalleled" team with him.

"I don't care if you destroy the Qin Dynasty, so why are you unwilling to agree to my request?"

"Get out of here!"

Later, King Wu turned love into hate and extended the struggle between Qin and Chu to the underworld.

then,

He Bo gave up his curiosity.

When Ying Si took Xuan Taihou to play snowballs, he looked calm and unperturbed. He only panicked when he was beaten up by the couple.

“I don’t think it’s difficult to have children!”

When the game was over and everyone was sitting together chatting, Ying Si picked up what his concubine said and expressed the opposite opinion.

Including the two of Yiqiu Jun,

Queen Dowager Xuan gave birth to five children, and all of them grew up!
Such a probability,
It is rare in today's world.
In particular, she herself lived an extremely long life.

The Queen Dowager Xuan immediately elbowed him, hitting him accurately three inches below the navel.

"What do you know!"

"You left after you slept!"

"You haven't experienced the difficulties of raising children!"

Ying Si was elbowed and couldn't reply. He fell to the ground and rolled around in the snow.

Seeing this, He Bo frowned and retreated behind the ghosts.

Ying Quliang couldn't bear to watch it anymore and went over to help his son up.

Queen Dowager Xuan was still making a convincing argument, "You men are all focused on fighting for the throne. The women and children in the harem are just embellishments to your rule."

"When you have free time, you play a lot. When you have too many state affairs, how can you care about your wife and children's thoughts?"

"You are like that too..."

The weak Ying Si muttered softly.

Queen Dowager Xuan snorted, "That's why I know you so well!"

"It's just that there are few women like me in the world, but there are too many men like you!"

"Among the descendants of Qin Ying, I have only seen one person who is willing to take care of his wife and children's emotions, and that's Fusu."

"There is also a child named Liu Xin who was taught by ghosts and gods in the human world!"

Although Liu Jiao's talents are indeed more outstanding than Liu Xin's.

But the dead ghosts have been secretly spying on the world of the living in the underworld for a long time, and they don’t know how many talented people they have seen.

Eating too much delicacies from land and sea,

Naturally, I began to appreciate the light-tasting side dishes.

Perhaps influenced by his mother, Liu Xin acts prudently and considerately, and is more considerate of the feelings of those around him.

Many dead ghosts who were in high positions during their lifetime commented on him:
"Such a person can become an excellent minister in a peaceful world."

His wisdom and ability were not enough to suppress the chaos for the monarch.
But it is possible to reconcile the conflicts among those rebellious talents and ease the relationship among everyone.

Just like when Liu Bang deprived Han Xin of his military power and detained him in the temporary capital of Liyang, Liu Xin would visit him to prevent the country from being in turmoil due to discord between the monarch and his ministers.

right now,

He also loosened the invisible but suffocating shackles on Crown Prince Liu Ying, allowing the child to enjoy the praise that was difficult to obtain from his parents.

of course,

Liu Xin would not tell Crown Prince Liu Ying that Empress Lü Zhi's harsh demands on him were unreasonable.

Nor would he directly say that his overly strong and accomplished parents were the main reason why Liu Ying, who lacked talent, appeared timid and weak under the overshadowing of their brilliance.

Actually,
Liu Xin himself doesn't have the brain to think so deeply.

He just felt that:
Parents think about their children.

Children should also be considerate of their parents.

Why did Empress Lu fight so frantically for power?
Of course, part of this is due to his inner desire.

But part of it must have been for Liu Ying.

As the eldest son, Liu Ying
As the crown prince of the Han Dynasty,
The etiquette and morals he learned required him to be a gentle brother and take care of his younger brother.

But if you only focus on being a "good brother" and forget to be a "good son", this will not work either.

Put yourself in their shoes.

This way everyone can live a good life.

So as to avoid disunity and fratricide.

So now a year has passed,
Liu Ying has shown some changes.

He still maintains his kindness and compassion, but occasionally expresses his opinions and views to his parents.

Although still a little immature and naive,

But this is much better than the previous timidity, when I saw my parents' angry looks, I would be scared and cry and dare not speak!

He even went so far as to step forward with tears in his eyes, grab his mother's hand and say, "I will kill this stupid woman and her son" when Lu Zhi was provoked by Lady Qi and was emotional in private, threatening: "I will kill this stupid woman and her son."
"I know my mother is angry with her because of me."

"I will study hard in the future to improve my talents and alleviate your worries."

"If you are still angry and you damage your body, it will make me look even more stupid and unfilial."

Lu Zhi hugged her child and felt even more grateful to Liu Xin.

"As long as the world is not in turmoil again, I think Liu Ying will not follow Fusu's footsteps."

The Queen Dowager Xuan made the conclusion with great confidence.

He Bo clapped his hands and said, "Then Liu Laosan will have to be troubled!"

"Let's see if he's willing to work as a millstone for a little longer for his son's sake!"

The problems faced by the First Emperor were

The descendants of the six kingdoms are hiding and trying to survive with him. They can't even find a hole to burrow when playing whack-a-mole.

Moreover, the time of the fall of the six kingdoms was too short, and there were indeed many people who missed the Xuanniao flag that governed their own princes and rejected Qin.

Therefore,
It was not until the First Emperor's body was exhausted that the other side emerged in large numbers and disrupted the world.

But the problems Liu Bang faced were smaller.

The remaining nobles of the six kingdoms were almost wiped out during the Chu-Han Contention.

Ying Qin used his own life to lure out this group of gophers, and Xiang Yu and Liu Bang were responsible for sending them to heaven one by one.

In addition, after years of war, no one has the energy to miss their homeland anymore.

Let's unify.
Just don't interfere with your husband's farming and marrying a wife!
therefore,

The biggest worry for the Han Dynasty right now is,

They are that group of unruly kings of different surnames.

"…By the way, where are Fusu and his father?"

Talking about this,

He Bo only then realized that there were two missing ghosts around him.

To know,
He invited Ying Qin's entire family to this outing.

Except for King Wu who had challenged the king to a fight, all other Qin kings were present.

How to turn your eyes?
Two main characters are missing?

Ying Ji pointed to the western end of the Qilian Mountains and said, "They went there!"

"I just heard from Fusu that today is Ying Pijiang's birthday, and it is also the day he should be crowned."

"Although he couldn't see his son, he wanted to be closer to him, so he went west!"

"I see!"

"Then I'll also go over and take a look from afar and convey my blessings!"

He Bo waved his hand, and followed in a mighty procession with the many dead ghosts who had rested well.
