At this moment, the Emperor turned his gaze to Lin Fu, who was standing to the side, his eyes fixed on his eldest son, his tenderness evident in his eyes.
He thought of the hardships Lin Yuze had endured in Jing'an County, and wanted to give Lin Fu enough time to recuperate his son and make up for the physical and mental damage he had suffered over the past six months.
After a moment's thought, he granted Lin Yuze permission to stay in the capital for another half month.
Upon receiving this imperial decree, a look of gratitude flashed in Lin Fu's eyes, and he immediately knelt down to express his thanks.
Below the court, the officials stood silently, witnessing Lin Yuze's tearful and overwhelmed emotions, and their hearts were filled with countless feelings.
The ministers secretly pondered what it would be like to be in Lin Yuze's position, facing such a difficult and perilous predicament.
Faced with such a complex and thorny problem, and having gone through countless hardships and tribulations, one would surely be as moved as Lin Yuze.
After all, the situation in Jing'an County is complicated and complex, like a tangled mess that is difficult to untangle. How easy is it to completely change this situation?
Ye Yunyao stood quietly in a corner of the court, her figure slender and dignified.
Ever since the Emperor mentioned the Ministry of Rites' cooperation, she has been deep in thought.
He secretly considered possible solutions, after all, the bad habits and deep-rooted problems in Jing'an County did not form overnight.
Rather, it has been refined over a long period of time and is deeply imprinted in the souls of the people, as unshakable as a stubborn rock.
Changing these bad habits cannot be achieved simply by issuing a few decrees; it requires long-term planning and careful consideration.
Only by deeply understanding the thoughts, concerns, and fears of the people, identifying the root causes of the problems, and then formulating targeted strategies can we gradually lead Jing'an County towards a brighter future.
After listening, 001 asked, "Luo Bao, how can we break this outdated custom? After all, it's difficult to change people's mindsets overnight."
After pondering for a moment, Qin Qianluo said, "Now that the bandits in Jing'an County have been completely defeated and the situation is gradually stabilizing, this is an opportunity."
We can systematically relocate some of the nearby residents there, allowing people from different regions to integrate with each other.
The collision of new ideas will, in a subtle way, gradually change some of the deep-rooted ideas of the local people.
Furthermore, capable soldiers should be dispatched to guard the baby girl towers in various places, and they must never again become places where demons devour the lives of innocent baby girls.
In addition, it should be strictly stipulated that any family with a pregnant woman must report the details to the government in advance so that the government can be aware of the situation and conduct subsequent verification and supervision.
If the number of children born in the future does not match the reported number, there must be something going on, and it must be dealt with seriously according to the law without any leniency.
Similarly, if there are several women with bound feet in the household, it must be truthfully reported to the government.
The government regularly dispatched personnel to inspect the area, and any newly discovered women with bound feet were severely punished according to the law.
They also had to vigorously promote the idea that women could serve as officials in the court, so that women's talents could be put to good use.
This can gradually improve the status of women in society and make people realize that girls and boys are equally important.
For those books filled with fallacies and heresies that are harmful to people's minds, we should keep samples for future research and examination, and destroy the rest to prevent them from continuing to harm the world.
At the same time, a large number of positive and truthful books were printed and distributed to guide people in establishing correct values.
Such inhumane and barbaric practices as funerary sacrifices, once verified, would result in the immediate and ruthless extermination of the entire family.
Only by enacting such severe punishments can we deter others and completely eradicate this problem.
And those chastity arches that symbolized the confinement of women were directly demolished or taken down by soldiers.
Then, the law that both men and women can remarry should be widely publicized so that the people can clearly understand the difference between Tianxuan and the country they lived in before, and that some of their previous ideas must be abandoned.
As for those aristocratic families, they no longer have real power; they merely rely on their land holdings and their long-standing monopoly on knowledge to try and maintain their former glory.
We could support some upright and quick-witted merchants and entrust them with the sale and business of novel and sought-after items such as glass.
It should be understood that the grains, cloths, and many other commodities produced by these aristocratic families could not compare to the resources of our dynasty today, in terms of both quality and variety.
Before long, their business will plummet and they will gradually be eliminated by the market.
Although the issue of land ownership is somewhat troublesome, Lin Yuze has already put in a lot of effort and come up with a proper solution, so let's follow his method.
When it comes to books, that's even less of a problem; we have a wealth of book resources.
Moreover, the movable type printing technique is now quite advanced, capable of continuous printing, so there is no need to worry about production volume.
Moreover, the writing implements we use today are a completely new generation compared to the past, and their quality has improved many times over.
Upon careful consideration, the biggest challenge at present lies in changing people's mindset.
This requires a lot of time and effort; it needs to be done step by step, guiding the child gradually.
001 I understand, that's true. Tianxuan has changed dramatically in the past year.
Significant progress has been made in all aspects, and the variety of products is now far superior to what it used to be.
With such a strong financial foundation, there's really no need to be hesitant or worried.
The ministers, who had been listening quietly, suddenly had a sudden realization, as if the clouds had parted and the sun had shone through. They had been so foolish.
