Chapter 1002 Happy Events and Considerations

"Your Highness..."

Yang Susu leaned on Zhao Xu with a happy face. She had only reacted in the past two days. Read М

But because she was not sure, she did not tell Zhao Xu.

But she also guessed roughly.

"I just don't know whether it is a boy or a girl?" Yang Susu said softly.

Zhao Xu laughed, "It's okay, at worst, I will continue to have more children."

Yang Susu couldn't help laughing when she heard it.

At this time, Zhao Xu helped Yang Susu sit down and said seriously, "Next, you have to rest and take care of your body. Don't be too tired."

He was naturally happy about Yang Susu's pregnancy.

In the past, because Dasong was not settled in the country, he and Yang Susu took the method of avoiding children, not that there was a problem between the two.

Now that the civil strife in Dasong has been quelled, Dasong's steam industry has transformed into the power industry.

Everything is thriving, so he followed Queen Mi's wishes.

Moreover, in this era, his age is really not young.

If he continues to drag it out, outsiders will really talk about him and suspect that he has problems.

"Well, I know." Yang Susu was a new mother and was a little nervous. She was excited and nervous.

The two talked about some intimate things, and Zhao Xu thought of Liu Fu again, and asked, "Liu Fu, this kid, asked the Duke to find you to be a matchmaker. Whose girl did he take a fancy to? I don't know, I will personally be a matchmaker for him."

"If so, it's even better, because this girl is exactly your royal girl. He has taken a fancy to Princess Xiangcheng." Yang Susu said.

Zhao Xu was stunned for a moment and laughed dumbly, "This kid has a big appetite. He has set his sights on the princess."

Although Zhao Heng came to Yancheng with three princesses.

These three princesses are all his sisters.

Among them, Princess Xiangcheng is the oldest, 19 years old this year.

Logically speaking, a 19-year-old princess is not young anymore and should have married long ago.

Before the civil strife in Dasong, Zhao Heng was indeed planning to marry Princess Xiangcheng to a powerful family.

Unexpectedly, a disaster came and the whole Dasong was in chaos, and Princess Xiangcheng was delayed.

As far as he knew, when Princess Xiangcheng was in Jinling, she had a good personal relationship with Nian Yujiao, who was then the Princess of Changle, and she once sympathized with him, the ninth brother of the King of Yan.

Because of the same suffering, her mother also had a low status in the palace and was not from a powerful family.

Therefore, after she came to Yanzhou, Zhao Xu also took good care of this sister and gave her a house as a princess's mansion. According to the royal system, monthly silver was allocated on a monthly basis.

"It can't be blamed on Prime Minister Liu. There are many young talents in Yancheng who want to marry Princess Xiangcheng. It's just that Your Highness is busy with government affairs and doesn't know. I have had many contacts with the wives and concubines of various ministers and have heard a lot of gossip." Yang Susu said.

Zhao Xu nodded.

In addition to Princess Xiangcheng, his two younger sisters, Princess Ningguo and Princess Changtai, are fourteen and fifteen years old, respectively.

In two years, they will all be old enough to get married.

In the past, Zhao Heng was responsible for this matter, but now the task falls on him.

Because sometimes the princesses of the royal family are very pathetic, just tools for the royal family to win over the ministers.

If Zhao Heng does this, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of Yanzhou generals such as Liu Fu and Chang Wei.

They think he has the ambition to seize power.

As an emperor, Zhao Heng also has this awareness, so he also tactfully asked him to consider Princess Xiangcheng's marriage.

After all, if he does it, no one will say anything.

However, he thinks he does not need to use Princess Xiangcheng to win over his subordinates.

He is not a mascot emperor like Zhao Heng who grew up in the deep palace since childhood and has no civil and military skills.

He can only rely on important ministers to assist him in order to maintain his rule.

On the contrary, the rise of Dasong today is shaped by him.

Whether in the court or in the army, his prestige is irreplaceable.

Liu Fu Changwei, dare they glare at him?

So, he said, "We have to ask Princess Xiangcheng. If she is willing, I will naturally help her. If she is not willing, I will not force her."

"I am waiting for this sentence." Yang Susu breathed a sigh of relief, "Your Highness allowed women from all over the world to enroll in school, and asked me to run a women's college. Princess Xiangcheng also made a lot of efforts in this matter. If Your Highness forces Xiangcheng to marry Liu Fu, I am afraid she will not be able to get over it."

Zhao Xu almost forgot about this, and he nodded frequently, "Then please ask the princess to go, it would be best if this good thing can be accomplished."

He allowed women to enroll in school and participate in the tide of industrial construction in order to liberate more labor.

Since he did so, he naturally had to move forward firmly.

However, he would not change the tradition of three wives and four concubines.

Because he needed Dasong to increase the population base.

Even if there were not enough women in Dasong, it would be good to let Dasong people marry women from Goryeo and Japan as concubines.

At the same time, he wanted to make this happen for another reason.

Now that Dasong is unified, he must employ talented people within Dasong, not just in Yanzhou.

Officials from Yanzhou, such as Liu Fu, tend to stick together and exclude officials from Jinling and other places.

This is what he doesn't want to see.

If Liu Fu and Princess Xiangcheng get married, this barrier can be broken, and if he continues to guide them, they can develop in the direction he hopes.
