Chapter 284 I am a layman who wants to leave my name in history
"Shall we find a place to talk?"
Bao Keke saw that he was thin and tall, with the same slender phoenix eyes as Yan Di. Although he was not as cold as Yan Di, he was also noble and cold.
I feel like I might have done something wrong and that I’m not worthy of him!
But she didn't want to miss it, so she nodded obediently and followed him.
The two sat down in the hall. After a few years of hard work, Xie Yong was no longer the young man who was poor at academics in Kyoto. He followed his sister's footsteps closely, studied hard and learned comprehensively, and learned 70% of Su Moqing and Xu Wenrong's knowledge.
Bao Keke felt a little nervous. She didn't know what happened to the courage she had just now. It slowly disappeared and she felt a little frustrated.
Seeing that she was suddenly discouraged, Xie Yong asked, "Why did you think of asking about marriage?"
Bao Keke said dejectedly, "On the grassland, although women don't get married as soon as they reach the age of 15 like women in the Central Plains, they still have to get married after the age of 17. I have been learning martial arts in the sect for fifteen years and have never left the mountain. There are many brothers and sisters in the mountain. If they like each other, they can go down the mountain to report to their parents and get married. I understand."
She just returned home to find that her family had been destroyed, so she had not considered marriage. Now that she has avenged her great hatred, her worries are at ease, and she has been conferred the title of a prince, she feels that it is time for her to get married and comfort the spirits of her relatives in heaven.
She liked Xie Yong the first time she saw him, and now she wanted to say it out loud.
"I'm a girl from the grassland, but I like people from the Central Plains, because men from the Central Plains are kind, clean, and like immortals." Bao Keke said, "I like people like you in my heart."
Xie Yong said: "But we don't understand each other."
"I'll wait. What do you want to know about me? I'll tell you everything. I won't lie." Bao Keke's hope was rekindled. She was happy for a moment, then lowered her voice and muttered, "There's not much people left in my family. Everything I have will be yours, and I'm yours too. I look OK. My sister said I'm the prettiest in the whole sect. I'm not cunning, and I won't hurt you."
Xie Yong didn't look at her completely, his thoughts ran to the grassland outside and to Xie Yanyan.
The grassland is difficult to manage and is the most troublesome problem for the entire Central Plains. It has been a problem that has troubled people for hundreds or even thousands of years and has not been solved.
The emperors of the Central Plains once sent many princesses to the grasslands to marry for the sake of peace in the inland, but it was of no use in the end.
If he married Bao Keke, unlike the grassland men who treated the princess poorly, Bao Keke loved him wholeheartedly and he would probably be able to sincerely lead the grassland herdsmen to submit to the Kyushu Empire.
If we take the opportunity to plant crops on the grassland and change nomadic life to settled life, then everyone will have enough food and water, and even the nomadic people will not be willing to fight.
The most important thing is that Bao Ke Ke also looks like a cute girl.
She is alone, the only one in the entire family. If she wants to rule the grassland tribe, she also needs a backer.
He and she were united, and within 10 years, they could plant crops on most of the grassland.
After thinking about this, he turned to look at Bao Keke, whose eyes rolled around. When she saw him looking at her, she immediately grinned and smiled flatteringly, "King Xiping, I do like you. Can you think about it again?"
Xie Yong said: "Okay, let me think about it."
When Bao Keke heard him say this, she jumped up, but suddenly realized that this was not a good thing to do. She slowly put her feet down and quietly left the hall like a thief.
After he went out, he ran faster than a rabbit. He led his horse over, mounted it, and "giggle" the horse and galloped away.
“Ah~”
"I will definitely make you like me~ As long as you like me, I will give you everything~"
Xie Yong couldn't help but laugh. Everyone in his family was too dull. He didn't know whether having someone like this was a good thing or a bad thing.
On this day, the whole family ate together.
After the meal, Xie Anfeng said solemnly: "Yong'er, I have something to discuss with you."
Xie Yong: "Father, do you want to talk about my marriage?"
"You know?"
"Yes, Prince Mingzhu has told me about this." Xie Yong said, "I am willing to be with her forever."
Xie Yanyan: "Second brother, if you don't like her, don't force it. Don't worry, the Jiuzhou Empire doesn't need a marriage to resolve conflicts."
Xie Yong shook his head: "Emperor Yan, I prefer her frankness, agility, and her ability."
He had previously thought about finding a good wife and mother, a woman who could be thrifty and manage the household like his elder sister-in-law, but Bao Keke is not bad either!
Sometimes people tend to be self-PUA. He thought about Bao Keke's advantages for a while and found that this woman was quite cute.
"I want to give it a try," Xie Yong said. "She is one year older than me, has better martial arts skills, and is more lively than me. But I have read more books than she does. We complement each other, one is good at literature and the other is good at martial arts. I am sure we can turn Lingxi and the entire grassland into a Jiangnan outside the Great Wall."
He smiled and said, "I am a layman who wants to leave my name in history!"
Zhou Shaoyu was also satisfied and said, "I thought about it a long time ago, but I didn't want to force you. Now that I think about it, it's best for you to be together. Bao is straightforward and selfless. It's easier to get along with such a person."
Xie Anfeng saw that his children had no objections. He was an open-minded person and would not stop them as long as they thought it was good. Besides, since Yan'er and Emperor Chen thought it was good, it must be a good idea.
The family settled down and it was time to light the lamps, so Xie Anfeng, Xie Yong and Xie Lingyu left.
Zhou Shaoyu looked at Xie Yanyan and just smiled.
"why are you laughing?"
"If Prince Xiping and Prince Mingzhu get married, we won't have to worry about the entire northwest for at least 30 years." Zhou Shaoyu gently traced her eyebrows with his fingers, "What about the two of us? Didn't you say that we would get married after you reach the age of 15?"
"Isn't this just because plans can't keep up with changes? Who knew we would actually establish the Kyushu Empire?" Xie Yanyan sighed, "Now we are both busy with our wedding and have no time."
"If you want to get married, then there will definitely be time. We can still handle state affairs side by side after we get married."
"I was just about to say this. In fact, it is best for women to get married after the age of 18. This way, they will be physically and mentally healthy, and their life span will not be affected by childbearing."
“.”
"If you give birth after the age of 18, and if you have enough food and clothing, and receive timely medical treatment when you are sick, it is not a dream for men and women to live to over 100 years old."
In the 22nd century, people over 100 years old are everywhere, and even people over 120 years old are not uncommon.
But nowadays, 50 is the age of knowing the destiny, 60 is the age of being obedient to others, and 70 is a rare age!
It would be a blessing for a normal person to live to 70 years old, not to mention that most of those who died in the war were young men in their teens and twenties.
Zhou Shaoyu was indeed taken away: "Can you live to 100 years old if you give birth after the age of 18?"
“If they are well taken care of, they can still farm and carry hoes even when they are over 120 years old,” Xie Yanyan said affirmatively.
“Then, let’s have another baby after we turn 18.” Zhou Shaoyu clenched his fists, feeling like crying.
At the age of 18, I still have to spend 2 more years practicing with my hair untied.
The two were discussing when a guard outside the door reported: "Your Majesty, someone said that he is a relative of Emperor Chen and wants to see Emperor Chen."
