Chapter 861

Seeing this, Xiao Yu was very relieved, and felt more and more that he had chosen the right person.

"Father, take a look at this book, how about it?"

As soon as Xiao Wenyu came over, he handed the books he had brought to Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu stretched out his hand to take them, and found that there were four large characters written on the cover, counting Zhou Xue.

Xiao Yu flipped through it a few times, and suddenly understood this book. It was the arithmetic that Lu Jiao taught Xiao Wenyu, using numbers created by himself, which involved addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, as well as ninety-nine multiplication. Xiao Yu read it before. When I saw the arithmetic used by Xiao Wenyu, I thought it was very good, but I didn't expect Xiao Wenyu to organize these into a book.

Xiao Yu was indescribably happy: "Are you planning to promote this book?"

"Yes, I think this method of arithmetic is more convenient and quicker than the original nine-chapter arithmetic and bead arithmetic. Children of all ages can learn it, and women can also learn it. It is very easy, but the original nine-chapter algorithm is opposite to the bead algorithm. It is more difficult, and Zhou Xue is easy to understand and easy to learn. Before I ordered to open Enke, the students will soon go to Beijing, and I plan to take advantage of the students from all over the world to go to Beijing to promote the Zhou Xue of Arithmetic to all parts of Dazhou."

After hearing this, Xiao Yu immediately nodded in agreement: "Yes, your idea is good."

Seeing that his father agreed, Xiao Wenyu smiled and talked about another thing: "Before I talked to my father about the remarriage of widows, I discussed it with several adults in the cabinet. If you want widows to remarry, there must be a new policy, otherwise it will be promoted. No, even if I issue a decree, the customs are different in different places, and in some places, it is still not easy for widows to remarry."

If Dazhou wanted to make the country rich and the people strong, it had to increase its population. When the population increased, it had to expand greatly from food and clothing to housing, so that the entire economy would be revitalized.

Xiao Wenyu talked about this topic with Xiao Yu before, and now that he heard that he was going to issue a new decree, he asked with concern: "How do you plan to issue a new decree?"

"If a widow remarries, the husband's family land tax will be exempted from twenty acres."

After hearing Xiao Wenyu's words, Xiao Yu immediately nodded in agreement, this is a good government order.

Originally, if a widow remarried, she would be treated harshly when she came to her husband's house, but with this decree, a widow who remarried to her husband's house would receive preferential treatment, exempting 20 acres of land tax, which is equivalent to giving the widow a guarantee.

"Yes, your decree is good."

"If the emperor agrees, I plan to issue these two decrees together."

"Can."

Xiao Yu looked at his son with a smile, the more he looked at him, the more satisfied he was. Not only did he have brains, but he did not lose his conscience, and he had enough respect for his old father.

Obviously he has inherited the throne of the Great Zhou Emperor, and he would still discuss important matters with him.

Xiao Yu couldn't help laughing, he was in a happy mood, God treated him preferentially, let him have such a son.

"Yu'er, you are doing very well."

Xiao Yu was completely relieved: "With an emperor like you, Great Zhou will become more and more prosperous. I see that you can stand alone, so I don't worry. Later, I will bring my concubine and your two younger brothers to live here. Go to the Royal Courtyard, and I will leave Da Zhou to you in the future."

Xiao Wenyu was stunned for a moment, actually Xiao Yu was in the palace with his concubine and two younger brothers, Xiao Wenyu thought it was very lively.

Unexpectedly, the father would leave the palace with his concubine and two younger brothers.

Xiao Wenyu felt a little lost, and also worried about Xiao Yu's body: "Father, you are not in good health, don't live in the palace, isn't it good?"

Xiao Yu immediately shook his head with a smile and said: "My body is just like this. I don't need to worry about court affairs. It's okay to take care of it slowly. Don't worry about me. As long as you take care of Da Zhou well, I'll be at ease."

Xiao Wenyu nodded, and said: "Why does the father live in the imperial palace? It's the same in the palace. If I have nothing to do, I can come and play chess with the father."

Xiao Yu said with a smile: "I live in the Royal Courtyard, you can come and play chess with me when you have time, as for living in the palace, there is no need, you forgot, your concubine will be living in the palace soon, It would be outrageous for me to bring Concubine Shu and the others to live in the palace again."

Hearing Xiao Yu's words, Xiao Wenyu couldn't help muttering: "If I knew it was such a trouble, I wouldn't have accepted the concubine."

Xiao Yu glared at Xiao Wenyu angrily: "Talking about children again, this is a state matter."

After Xiao Yu finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Wenyu, and said with loving eyes: "Yu'er, my father owes you a lot, and I haven't given you much fatherly love since I was a child, but you are a good boy, and I have never blamed my father in my heart. Thank you, my father." is you."

Xiao Yu didn't get much affection in his life. Although Xiao Wenyu returned to the palace not long ago, he got a lot of warmth from this son, so he was very grateful to this son.

Sometimes he was very grateful to Xie's family for raising his son, because only Xiao Wenyu who grew up in their parents would have a sunny heart, magnanimous and generous. If he grew up in the palace, he might have a gloomy and withdrawn temperament. Some of the children who grew up here were not careful.

Xiao Wenyu felt a little embarrassed when he heard Xiao Yu's words. In fact, he was able to accept Xiao Yu because his mother repeatedly mentioned it.

Mother told him that Xiao Yu, as the emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty, lacked nothing but family affection, and he wanted him to treat him sincerely.

He listened to his mother's words, got along with Xiao Yu sincerely, and found that his father was actually quite good, so he accepted him.

"Father, my son is not as good as you said."

Xiao Yu looked at Xiao Wenyu lovingly and said: "Father is leaving the palace now, there is no other request, only one request, I hope you can agree to it?"

"Father, what do you say?"

"Defend the Great Zhou Dynasty and be a good emperor."

"Father, I promise you."

Xiao Yu smiled with satisfaction, and said heartily: "In the future, you can make your own decisions about the government affairs of Da Zhou, and don't ask me about them anymore. This time, my father can understand that you have handled them very well. These days, father The emperor will tidy up and leave the palace, and you should also decree to be a concubine."

"Yes, father."

Xiao Wenyu quickly decreed that the concubine who was about to enter the palace would be given the title.

Daughters of Zhao Guogong's Mansion, Wu Guogong's Mansion, Nanyang Hou's Mansion, General Geng's Mansion, Qingning Hou's Mansion, Zhongyi Hou's Mansion, and Uncle An Yun's Mansion all received titles.

This time, the highest concubine who entered the palace was named concubine, and the lowest was beauty. There were nine in total.

However, these concubines who were about to enter the palace did not enter the palace together, but in batches. The first ones entered the palace were Zhao Guogong's mansion, Wu Guogong's mansion, and Nanyang Marquis' mansion, and the rest followed suit.

The Zhao family, the Nie family, and the Hua family were quite happy.

Once the emperor and the courtiers, the daughters of their families can enter the palace, and they will get closer to His Majesty. Later, if their own children are pregnant with the emperor's heir and covet the emperor's son, maybe their family's position will be more stable.

For a time, the entire capital was filled with lively atmosphere.
