Great Han Arrow God

Chapter 444 Knowledge Changes Destiny
Under the expectant eyes of everyone, Liu Ling stepped onto the lecture hall gracefully, bowed to the guests from all over the world, said a few words of welcome, and quickly got to the point.

"You may have realized that more than half of today's guests are the lords of Xiangguo. The reason for this choice is that compared with ordinary people, excellent heirs are more important to you. Without an heir, the future of the family is nothing. If you give birth to a stupid person, it will not be much better, and sometimes it is even worse than having no heir..."

Liu Ling successfully attracted the audience's attention with just a few words.Who doesn't want the family to prosper and have a full house of children and grandchildren?If there are no heirs to inherit, the hard-earned family business and the credits earned will be in vain.It won't be much better if you give birth to a stupid and stupid prodigal son.

The fate of the family affects the nerves of every prince.

So is the Son of Heaven.Although he is very sensitive to the influence of foreign relatives, so far, guarding against Empress Chen has not been put on the agenda.After the death of the Empress Dowager, Princess Guantao had no backbone and could not play a big role.As for the Chen family, there was no threat at all.The relatives he has to be wary of are the queen mother's family: the Wang family and the Tian family, especially the Tian family.

Otherwise, he wouldn't give Empress Chen such face when she had no children.

The queen has no children, and the harm to him is far greater than the queen's family arrogating power.

For a while, the emperor temporarily put down the unhappiness in his heart, pricked up his ears, and listened attentively.

After a few opening remarks, Liu Ling began to explain the starting point and method of this research project.She took the trouble to introduce the process of the research, and even named those powerful teenagers who participated in the project one by one, which strongly proved that the data she obtained was true and reliable, and there was no suspicion of falsification, and at the same time, it further aroused the interest of the audience.

"This knowledge is a bit big." The emperor turned his body slightly and whispered to Empress Chen. "With so many people involved, it is worthy of a war."

"What Your Majesty said is true. Although Liu Ling is a woman, she has the air of a general. In this regard, I think Liang Xiao is not as good as her."

The emperor frowned. "Did Liu Ling have any opinion on Liang Xiao's award?"

"Yes." Empress Chen said without hesitation: "She said that His Majesty's reward is too generous, and she is worried that it will be disadvantageous to Liang Xiao."

"Really?" The emperor was surprised, but also somewhat disbelieving.He knew that although Empress Chen was not stupid, compared with Liu Ling, she was not far from being stupid.How do you know that Liu Ling didn't say these words on purpose to Empress Chen, or wanted Empress Chen to pass them on to him?

"It's absolutely true." Empress Chen said: "She said that Liang Xiao was born in a reckless family, that he didn't study much, and that he didn't have enough cultivation. If he suddenly gets rich, he might get carried away and become proud of his favor, which is not beautiful. Besides, this time, Li Guang's reward is too generous. It is easy to be hated by others. Liang Xiao's food town is similar to that of Li Guang, although it is an imperial court system, it is easy to attract criticism."

The emperor raised his brows and smiled without saying a word.

On stage, Liu Ling finished introducing the project and finally began to release various data.As soon as the data came out, there was an uproar and discussions.

The emperor looked at the patterns painted on the silk, the corners of his eyes twitched involuntarily, and subconsciously stood up.

"Is there such a big danger in re-introduction?"

Empress Chen was also stunned, looking pale at the shocking pictures and data.The emperor saw her expression out of the corner of his eye, and felt relieved.Empress Chen's expression is enough to prove that she has nothing to do with this matter.Otherwise, it would be difficult to pretend to be so real with her personality.

Liu Ling's conclusion is very simple, it can be summed up in only two sentences.

First, heavy relatives are extremely harmful to offspring, not only prone to a series of problems such as premature birth, dystocia, and miscarriage, but also infertility in severe cases.

Second, the closer the blood relationship, the greater the harm. The proportion of birth abnormalities in cousin marriages is [-] times higher than that of unrelated couples, and the proportion of second cousins ​​is about ten times lower.

When talking about the second point, Liu Ling interjected: why there are often records of brother-sister marriage in ancient books, but in modern times, brother-sister marriage is a sexual act forbidden by saints.It is speculated from this data that the possibility of birth abnormalities in brother-sister marriage is as high as [-] times.Therefore, the sage's prohibition of intermarriage between brothers and sisters is a true insight into the way of heaven, not casual talk, let alone unfounded far-fetched conclusions.

In other words, many seemingly unreasonable things actually have a reason to hide in them, but the price is the blood and tears of an unknown number of people.From this point of view, learning has never been empty talk, but a major event that is beneficial to the national economy and the people's livelihood, and is closely related to everyone.

"Thank you for your patience in listening." Liu Ling laughed: "I would like to invite you to present what you have seen. If you have any questions, please speak freely. I know everything and I can say everything."

Before the words fell, countless people stood up, ready to speak in a hurry.

Liu Ling glanced and saw the emperor in the private room.She smiled and said: "Everyone, Your Majesty has something to ask, why don't you first ask the emperor what questions you have?"

Who dares to rob the emperor?Those outstretched arms immediately retracted, and they all turned their gazes to the private room.

The emperor was startled, and panicked for a moment.He was just surprised by the result, but there was nothing wrong with it.Suddenly being watched by so many people, I was somewhat nervous.However, he is the Son of Heaven after all, and he often faces the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty, and he quickly calms down, even showing a bit of concern for the country and the country in his eyes.

He coughed: "If this conclusion is true, how much impact will it have on the country?"

Liu Ling laughed: "Your Majesty is indeed Your Majesty. We only pay attention to our own little family. Your Majesty's first thought is the people of the world."

Everyone laughed in agreement, and someone immediately thought of the fact that the emperor and the empress had no children.However, at this time, no one is going to make fun of themselves, and will only praise the emperor with the world in one voice.

"Your Majesty, the king regards the people as his heaven. Would Your Majesty want his people to be smart and strong, or stupid and stupid, or would their household registration decline and the people become rarer?"

The emperor was speechless, a little embarrassed.

"I think what Your Majesty wants to ask is the specific impact." Liu Ling said with a smile, "I'm sorry I can't answer this point. With my personal strength and limited time, I can only investigate the inside and outside of Chang'an City. Don’t dare to generalize to the whole world easily. The inference must be restrained, otherwise there will be very large errors. After all, outside of Chang’an, there is no place in the world where so many close relatives are concentrated.”

Everyone nodded.Not only did Liu Ling's caution not make them feel that Liu Ling was unreliable, but they felt that Liu Ling's conclusion was credible and well-founded.

"However, one thing is certain. For ordinary people, it doesn't matter if they are a little stupid. As long as they have the strength to farm, it will have little impact. But for everyone here, it is different. You Your children have the opportunity to become officials in school, the gap between a talented person and a fool, I believe everyone knows it without me saying it."

Everyone nodded in unanimous agreement, who doesn't want to produce a few talents, the value of one talent is worth ten or a hundred mediocre ones.

Liu Ling waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet.She bowed to the emperor to salute. "Your Majesty is worried about state affairs, and we are far behind. If Your Majesty intends to conduct research in the world, the Huainan Palace is willing to fully support, send people and efforts, and do our best."

The emperor's heart moved, he said a few words of comfort, and sat down.Liu Ling could express his allegiance, but he couldn't easily accept her suggestion. Hukou is the lifeblood of the imperial court, so how could he let the King of Huainan get involved easily.Furthermore, to carry out investigations in the world, it is necessary to send envoys to patrol the four directions. Huainan King cannot be allowed to participate in such matters, and can only be handled by the court itself.

Of course, it is possible to have someone from the Huainan Palace send out training.

After the emperor was seated, everyone began to ask questions frequently, and the topics became more and more extensive. Liu Ling responded calmly and calmly, neither exaggerating nor covering up, showing a simple and simple demeanor.

In the private room, Empress Chen's complexion became more and more ugly, and her expression became more and more depressed.The emperor looked at it, frowned slightly, and couldn't bear it, but he didn't know how to comfort him, and his heart was a little confused.

In the past, what he was most worried about was that he would not be able to have children. After Wei Zifu gave birth to a daughter for him, he was relieved, thinking that childlessness was the problem of Empress Chen and had nothing to do with him.If the queen is to be abolished in the future, the reason of having no children is justified.Now I know that it's not that Empress Chen can't give birth, it's just that Empress Chen has no chance to find someone else to live like him.If it is abolished later, it will be unreasonable.

Night, Guantao Princess Palace.

Princess Guantao sat behind the table, with a silk book spread out in front of her, which was the copy of Liu Ling's lecture.Although there is no list of those specific visitors, the data is very detailed, and it is accompanied by a picture, which is clear at a glance. The curve that goes straight to the sky is like an arrow, which made her feel confused.

She regretted and rejoiced.

What I regret is that I thought my daughter was childless because she was sick, spent countless money, took countless medicines, and even went to a witch doctor, but nothing came of it.

Fortunately, Liu Ling's research proved that this is not a problem of the queen, but a problem of both the emperor and the empress. In this case, the emperor cannot abolish the empress on the grounds of childlessness.Even if the queen has no children, the Chen family doesn't have to worry about it, and of course they don't need to spend those wronged money.

Liu Ling did the Chen family a big favor.

Now, she also understood why Liu Ling was determined not to cooperate with her.If you don't cooperate, this matter will not arouse the suspicion of the emperor, thinking that they have ulterior motives.Cooperation, this matter is unclear, who can guarantee that these data are not forged by you?

She believed that Liu Ling was fully prepared, and maybe there was a detailed list for the emperor to check to ensure that the conclusion was reliable.

"It would be great if I had such a capable daughter." Princess Guantao sighed and put away the silk scroll.Said to the two sons sitting opposite: "You have also seen how useful learning is. It can not only make money and get rich, but also solve problems. In the future, you should also spend some time and do some business, so as to save you from idleness all day long. .”

The Chen Xu brothers glanced at each other and bowed to accept the order.
