Furthermore, the current head of the Yang family was only capable of maintaining the status quo and failed to keep up with the changes. For two consecutive years, they had not allowed their younger generation to take the imperial examinations and enter the government, essentially disconnecting them from the officialdom.

The era when aristocratic families prosper and suffer together is over. Now it is a time of great change and only the fittest will survive!

Find the direction of your efforts and follow King Xiao to create a prosperous Great Xia Dynasty!

Three years later, the military reform was complete. Beiyi was the largest military district, with the rest stationed across Daxia territory according to the eight trigrams! The Northern Military District retained a garrison of 200,000 troops, commanded by Shen Mu. The other military districts each had a garrison ranging from 30,000 to 80,000! The remaining elderly, weak, sick, and disabled veterans willing to return to their hometowns to farm were given pensions, with ten acres of land, five acres of fertile farmland, and five acres of barren land. Those unwilling to return home were assigned to oversee the construction of the canal, and those with exceptional abilities were hired as instructors at the Military Academy!

Every year, soldiers from the eight military regions are selected to train young people for military service! If they find a promising candidate, they can recommend him to a military academy or take the military examination to join the army.

It took seven years to complete the national reform, and most government affairs were handed over to the prince. Qiuqiu worked hard to practice and find a way back.

Before he recovered his strength, he did not go to the Wuwei old monk of Leiyin Temple and the enemy who provided the soul weapon to take over his body! Qiuqiu, who had integrated the heavenly soul, felt that he had to fulfill Xu Jin's wish and complete the reform of the Great Xia Dynasty before he could further integrate!

What she didn't know was that only in this way could she completely integrate the Heavenly Soul, gain merit, and completely use the True Dragon's energy for herself!

With pirates invading the southeastern coast, the Southeastern and Eastern Military Regions have begun full-scale maritime training, embarking on a maritime expedition! Qiuqiu provides advanced shipbuilding technology, maritime trade routes, and the search for new territories to be opened up, all for the Crown Prince to implement.

Prince Xiao's shop has new items, this time with a plethora of rare and exotic goods. The Empress's orphanage is now fully operational, and she even visits it in person from time to time. Now that she's cooped up in the palace, it's all sorts of fun!

After Qiuqiu finished his training, he was bored when he saw the Queen's state: "You can summon a few ladies who are easy to talk to, let them bring their sons, and you can take the Crown Prince on a secret tour to go shopping in person. This is called stimulating domestic demand and promoting commercial development. Let Yan'er also see the benefits of commercial development!"

The queen was naturally moved, and there was such a high-sounding reason!

The Queen summoned eight wives of important officials, who brought their sons with them. They were dressed in casual clothes and each was assigned a phoenix guard to ensure their safety. They went shopping together!

The ladies were unaware of the situation and just followed the queen. As long as the queen wanted to buy something, they would buy it as long as she recommended it to them!

Empress Xu: "This bracelet is very suitable for Madam Wang."

Mrs. Wang: "Thank you, Mrs. Xu. I like it too. I will pack it up right away." The son paid and carried the things!

Queen - Madam Xu: "This dress is specially made for the wife of Marquis Jingyuan. Would you like to try it on?"

The wife of Marquis Jingyuan: "The prince paid for it. The queen has good taste and saw at first glance that she was suitable for me!"

……

This is not crazy, there are these:

The prince said: "Mother, you must be tired. Let's go to the teahouse in front and rest for a while."

"Mom, you must be thirsty. I'll buy you a can of pear juice. Let's drink while we go shopping!"

"Mom, these two look great on you. I'll use my own savings to buy them for you. I'll ask Dad to reimburse me when I get home!"

When he encountered something interesting, he would not forget to tell various stories, and the eight sons he brought with him had no room to perform!

You two, not only are you taking us to spend money, you're also showing off your affection for your son right in front of us! You're the Queen, and we can't afford to offend the Crown Prince, so we can only endure it!

Finally, they entered the beauty salon and freshened up the ladies. The accompanying teenagers also changed into matching hairstyles and clothing. The group went to the Imagination Hall, where, as the name suggests, they could speak freely and realize their dreams. Nine teenagers formed groups and competed against ten others. They competed in the arts of music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, etiquette, the six arts of a gentleman, horseback riding, archery, and finally, the debate. Each of the fifteen events involved three participants, with each winner earning one point. The debate involved five participants, with the winner receiving five points!

Prince Edward was on the yellow team and finished with a final score of 32 points, with a perfect individual score of 16 points! This set a new record.

The young traveling companion: What on earth are they doing here? It’s really physically and mentally torturous!

Moms: What are other people’s children? Thoughtful, thoughtful and capable!

Everyone in the Red Group: What kind of devilish boy is this? Is he here to cause trouble? We are one of the top ten Hebei players, famous for a long time, but we lost so badly today, how can we face people in the future!

Beautiful tourist group: The leader is handsome and talented, I want to marry him and give birth to his children!

This was the seventh year of his reign as emperor. A shocking event occurred in the State of Qi, and the status of women became increasingly higher with a series of policies.

Although there was a rule that children born to women who had not served in the military had no inheritance rights, this deeply resented the noble ladies of the aristocratic families who valued etiquette more than their lives. However, the current emperor was powerful, and the noble families were suffering terribly. Everyone had to keep their tails down and behave themselves, and other families were chosen. The outstanding ones would even be favored by the empress and become female officials. In places like orphanages, simply managing them well could increase their reputation, and with a good reputation, they could marry well. This kind of sugar with sand in it could only be swallowed reluctantly.

Dingyuan Hou was a founding hero, stationed in the southwest for a long time. He was considered a capable official, and he married a noblewoman from an aristocratic family. The couple had a good relationship, which is also a good story! Dingyuan Hou's wife, Lin, gave birth to a son and a daughter. The Lin family, a first-class aristocratic family, was also greatly affected. The grandfather was killed, the grandmother could not bear the shock and died, the father was imprisoned, and the mother took her meager dowry and exiled her brothers, sisters and brothers to Siyang in northern Hunan. Although Dingyuan Hou was not affected, his status in the family plummeted!

The household items were taken away, and the mother-in-law teamed up with the concubine of Marquis Dingyuan, a distant cousin, to push the ten-year-old son, the Marquis Dingyuan's son, into the ice pond and drown him. When he fainted after hearing the bad news, he found out that he had been poisoned and completely injured!

The aristocratic family looked down on the nobles because they were born into the peasant family. The mother-in-law had long been dissatisfied with the daughter-in-law of the noble family, and she also disliked their own children. Once something went wrong, at the instigation of her niece from her mother's family, she not only poisoned her daughter-in-law but also directly killed her own grandson, supporting her niece to take the throne and let her two-year-old grandson be the crown prince. The concubine also claimed that the wife of Marquis Dingyuan had not served in the military, but she herself had served in the military, and her son had more inheritance rights. She was just restoring order to comply with the court's policy!

After a thorough investigation, the Imperial Guards discovered that this Dingyuan Marquis was not the wife's biological son. To maintain his position as the principal wife, he had exchanged his own daughter for a son born at the same time as his concubine. Dingyuan Marquis, who had been neglected by his mother and unloved by his father since childhood, had worked hard to get to where he was today! Now that he knew about the situation at home, he immediately rushed back.
