Girl, there's something wrong with you

Before you know it, another year has passed.

Last year, three major things happened:

First, the Northern Expedition was successful. The Central Plains, Guanzhong, Hebei, and Jinzhong were all recovered, and the former territory of the Jin Empire was restored. The puppet clusters originally entrenched in the north were all expelled to Yanshan, Yinshan, Hetao, and Longyou areas.

The second is that the Jin Dynasty is gone. Cheng Jinyang took the Sima family and replaced him. Since the Cheng family's hometown was Luoyang, the country's name was changed to "Zhou".

The third is to move the capital to Luoyang, with Jiankang as the companion capital, and the north and south will echo each other.

Today, due to the long-term demon raging, both the economy and the population of the north have been in dire straits.

Abandoning Jiankang and moving the capital to the north, the wave of opposition from both the court and the people has always been relatively large.

However, Cheng Jinyang knew that Emperor Qingxu of the Western Regions and Emperor Dongyin of the Northern Desert would be the great enemies of the Zhou Empire in the future.

The combined strength of his harem team is considered to be one super-grade level, and Xie Guyan is considered to be another super-grade level. The total is two, and they have a great advantage whether they face the Western Region or the Northern Desert alone.

But if we concentrate our efforts to eliminate one party, we will inevitably be attacked by the other party.

Therefore, the Zhou Empire must develop the north as soon as possible to form strategic depth.

The economic and population centers remain in the south, but the political and military centers must move north.

At the same time, high-end power also needs to be expanded as soon as possible.

The simplest way is to recruit more concubines from aristocratic families, and then continue to do what they did to Ah Zhi and the others on these concubines, and create dozens more first-grade ones.

Even without the Fire of the Heavenly Emperor, if there are a sufficient number of first-level superpowers, they can still crush the demons.

However, another problem is that behind the concubines of aristocratic families is often a family - the so-called "political entity".

Increasing the number of concubines from aristocratic families is equivalent to increasing the number of foreign relatives, and these aristocratic families will naturally stick together, thus paving the way for the future division of the empire.

Therefore, for at least the next ten to twenty years, the Zhou Empire will remain on the defensive for the time being, while internally it will work hard to readjust its political structure and restore its economic vitality.

Considering Cheng Jinyang's age, there is really no need to rush in the next few years.

The war in Longyou is still going on, but the intensity has decreased. Both sides tacitly exchange damage with each other on a regular basis. Anyway, the people who die are puppets.

In the Central Plains, major cities have begun to fill up their populations one after another, including spontaneous migration and promotion from capital or government orders.

Among them, Luoyang, the northern capital, was unparalleled among many cities. Relying on its natural position as the political center, a large number of aristocratic families, companies, factories, etc. began to settle in the imperial capital.

Relying on the massive infusion of population and capital, Luoyang is rapidly prospering.

"Luoyang is in danger of being conquered by mountains and rivers." In Taichu Palace, Cheng Weixin replied, "Controlling Guanzhong to the west, connecting Hebei to the north, and controlling Jianghuai to the south, it is the center of the dragon spirit in the world. Therefore, my father moved the capital to Luoyang with this in mind."

Cheng Jinyang curled his lips and called him a monster in his heart.

When a normal child is one and a half years old, shouldn't he only be called "Dad" and "Mom"?

Why is my son so precocious?

However, Cheng Jinyang felt somewhat relieved when he thought that it was his own seed after all.

Well, first of all, he inherited a good genetic foundation, and secondly, Ashu stayed at home all day long to teach him, so it was normal for his son to know a little more.

"Pfft." Cheng Yining laughed beside him.

"Why is my sister laughing?" Cheng Weixin asked with a frown.

"Brother missed something." Cheng Yining added, "I, the Cheng family, consider Luoyang, the sacred capital, as my hometown. Moving the capital to Luoyang is not only a sacred declaration that 'Zhou Zuo is in Cheng', but also a sign of support for the northern survivors."

"That's true." Cheng Weixin was silent for a moment and said, "I only considered the geographical factors but did not analyze it from the political level. It was my lack of thinking."

Cheng Jinyang:………………

"Father, don't be angry." Probably mistaking his father's silence as dissatisfaction, Cheng Weixin's childish face showed an expression of shame, "I will definitely study hard with Aunt Wanrou in the next tutoring class. "

"No, I'm not disappointed in you." Cheng Jinyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Am I not even qualified to disappoint my father?" Cheng Weixin murmured.

Cheng Jinyang was slightly speechless, feeling that there seemed to be something wrong with Murong Shu's education.

Cheng Yining spread his hands beside him and sighed.

After checking the homework of his son and daughter, Cheng Jinyang went to the harem to check on the other pair of children.

Lu Qingyun gave birth to a daughter at the beginning of the year, named "Cheng Manman" and named Princess Fan Yang;

A few months later, Li Qingwan also gave birth to a son, named "Cheng Dezhen".

As the eldest son recognized by the outside world, it stands to reason that in the absence of a legitimate son, Cheng Dezhen should have some of the prestige of a legitimate eldest son. However, according to the results of genetic pedigree identification, his supernatural bloodline seems to have a higher probability of awakening and "physical activation".

With Cheng Jinyang's current power, Li naturally did not have the guts to ask Cheng Jinyang's eldest son to change his surname.

But who knows what His Majesty thinks? Therefore, many ministers in the DPRK and China also maintained a neutral attitude and were not in a hurry to show their support to Concubine De.

Li Qingwan didn't express anything about this, and even comforted Cheng Jinyang in turn, saying that he had no obsession with the position of the eldest son.

As for Xiao Dezhen, it doesn't matter whether his surname is Cheng or Li.

This answer made Cheng Jinyang quite satisfied: Even if my son's surname is Li, wouldn't he be my son?

joke!

The people of Deze and the common people, this is the emperor's measure, okay!

No matter what their surname is, all half-demon in this world are descendants of my blood.

Arriving at Concubine De's palace and entering the room, Cheng Jinyang saw Li Qingwan and Xing Yunzhi sitting and chatting. Xiao Dezhen was lying quietly in Li Qingwan's arms, his cheeks trembling slightly, and he was slowly drinking something.

Hmm, a bit astringent.

"Oh, your Majesty is here." Seeing the maids around him saluting, Li Qingwan quickly stood up with Xiao Dezhen in his arms, and tightened his clothes to avoid being indecent.

"Your Majesty." Xing Yunzhi also stood up and said with a smile.

"Hurry up and stop saluting." Cheng Jinyang waved his hand and said to Li Qingwan, "In the future, you don't need to salute when you have children."

He turned to look at Xing Yunzhi and lectured:

"You too, you're still carrying a child in your belly, what are you doing?"

"I was wrong." Xing Yunzhi admitted her mistake with a smile.

After talking for a while, Xing Yunzhi stood up and said:

"I was a little sleepy, so I went back first."

Now that she was pregnant, it was naturally impossible for her to accompany Li Qingwan and Cheng Jinyang to practice martial arts, so she wisely found a reason to run away.

Concubine Lan drove back to the palace, and the accompanying maids also left.

The maid on Concubine De's side saw Li Qingwan winking, so she came over to take the already-fed little Dezhen away, and then quickly left.

So there were only two people left in the room. Li Qingwan wiped the drool left by Xiao Dezhen with a piece of paper, and then pulled up his clothes shyly.

"Don't pull it yet." Cheng Jinyang smiled gently, "Let me see."

"How come your Majesty is so shameless?" Li Qingwan blushed and said angrily.

"This is the beauty of a mother, how can it be considered shameful?" Cheng Jinyang said sternly.
