I am the censor, at the beginning I denounced the empress

Chapter 133 Gaochang's Strange Tradition

"Shut up, did I tell you to talk?"

When Long Qing opened his mouth, the others immediately shut up.

After all, if you don't shut up, you're beating until you shut up.

For the simple and rude Long Qing, his subordinates were almost instinctively afraid.

Long Qing glanced coldly across the crowd, and saw that his subordinates were all obediently bowing their heads, not daring to meet their eyes, so he nodded in satisfaction, and said in a cold voice, "What should be done is still to be done."

Hearing this, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

Just thinking about flattering, Long Qing went on to say, "But the King has to give you face."

"In the future, do things more quickly."

"If anyone is caught, figure out a way for yourself."

Everyone nodded and agreed.

But after several of his men left, Long Qing sneered and his eyes became much more sinister.

……

into the night.

Tang Can and Gao Yinliu sat opposite each other in the tent.

Tang Can is reading a book, Gao Yinliu is practicing,

It was only in the middle of the night that Gao Yinliu moved his ears and said softly, "My lord, someone is here."

After saying that, without waiting for Tang Can to speak, he stood up directly and stood at the door of the camp.

After a while, a voice came from outside the account: "Tang Yushi, are you asleep? I'm An Xu."

An Xu is Tang Can's eyeliner in Gaochang.

His father was from Gaochang and was a soldier under Longqing's tent, and his mother was a village woman who was robbed from Daliang by Longqing.

When giving birth to him, dystocia died.

Fortunately, he was destined to grow up safely.

A few years ago, I was lucky enough to be valued by a Gaochang businessman. I worked with him and worked as a waiter, and my life was pretty good.

A few days ago, Tang Can opened a kiln to bake bricks, and he came over to join in the fun.

Because of his diligent hands and feet, he was quite shrewd, but he was quite familiar in front of Tang Can.

"Yinliu, let him in." Tang Can ordered softly, Gao Yinliu naturally let the door open, let An Xu in and came in.

An Xu, who has a mischievous eyebrow, behaved a lot when he saw Tang Can.

Of course, it is also possible that Gao Yinliu was frightened by Gao Yinliu's indifferent breath.

"Tang Yushi, something happened to what you asked the villain to keep an eye on."

Tang Can's pupils shrank slightly.

Before, he was worried that Yan Rannu's affairs would not be easy to understand, so he specially asked An Xu to keep an eye on her.

Unexpectedly, there was movement so soon.

"Several people?"

An Xu looked distressed, and rubbed his thumb and index finger: "Tang Yushi, look..."

Tang Can smiled slightly and didn't take it seriously. He took out a few copper coins from his arms and gently folded them on the table.

The sound of copper coins is clear and sweet.

An Xu immediately beamed: "The seven people were all captured by Uncle Long's men."

"At this moment, it is estimated that I have left the capital and headed to the Dangxiang Desert."

"Okay, let's go."

Tang Can waved An Xu away with a wave of his hand.

Squinting his eyes, he pondered for a moment: "Yinliu, go there, kill everyone except Yan Rannu."

Gao Yinliu couldn't help being startled, and looked at Tang Can in surprise.

Tang Can frowned, and didn't explain too much his dislike for selling Yanran slaves, but said softly: "Don't worry, I'm here, no one can do anything to me."

"it is good."

Gao Yinliu was silent for a moment, and agreed.

The figure disappeared in a flash.

Tang Can's brows were still furrowed.

You can kill for a while, but you can't kill for a lifetime.

After all, they are all Gaochang people, and their death is also a loss for Gaochang.

This matter still needs to be solved.

The bottom line is that Longqing did this to make money and buy people to help Gaochang thrive.

Regardless of the means, the starting point is always good.

Tang Can doesn't have any particularly good ways to make money right now.

After all, Gaochang products are basically jewelry and jade.

This kind of thing is expensive if it is said to be expensive, and it is not worth money if it is said to be worthless.

As for the population issue... it is even more difficult to deal with.

It is impossible for anyone to conjure people out of thin air.

and many more……

A light flashed in Tang Can's head.

He can really conjure people out of thin air!
There are so many people in the Zhenbei Army, it will never be a display!
After all, in the town of Zhenbei Army, there are hundreds of thousands of men, women, old and children...

Of course, this matter cannot be robbed.

His idea is always to look at problems and solve them from another angle.

The population growth in Gaochang is slow, and one reason that cannot be ignored is that Gaochang women have an astonishingly high death rate during the process of giving birth!

Tang Can is not a gynecologist, and there is no gynecologist in the Zhenbei Army Camp.

However, there are quite a few experienced midwives in the Zhenbei Army camp.

With their help, at least half of the problem is solved.

At dawn the next day, Tang Can rushed to Tuoba's Wang Tent as usual.

As soon as they met, Tuoba frowned and said in a low voice, "Where did Gao Yinliu go last night?"

"I did something." Tang Can said casually, then changed the topic: "It's not important, I want to discuss something with the king."

Tuoba shook his head, and said angrily: "Killing people is not important, what matters?"

"Rescue!"

Ok?
save people?

Tuoba was stunned for a moment, and the scolding on his lips also turned into doubt: "Who are you saving?"

"Maternity."

Tang Can looked serious: "I asked someone specifically this morning, Gaochang women, after giving birth, more than [-]% of them died."

"If midwives are recruited from Great Liang, this problem may be alleviated to a large extent."

In fact, Tuoba had not thought about this matter.

But regarding Gaochang tradition, this matter is not so easy to explain to Gaochang men.

Simply put, Gaochang people believe that childbirth is a very sacred thing, a gift from heaven.

During the process of giving birth, the mother is communicating with God.

Anyone taking care of it will affect the connection between the mother and God.

In this case, the child born will not be blessed by the gods of Gaochang Kingdom.

Children who do not receive blessings are not worthy of becoming Gaochang warriors.

Therefore...

Maternal mothers in Gaochang are always alone when giving birth.

After giving birth, if you can hold your baby and walk out of the tent by yourself, you will be considered a hero!
Children can also benefit from this at an early age.

Like Tong Mingde, because of this, he was loved so much back then. When his peers didn’t even know there was a word, he was able to read and know how to read, and he has made it to today step by step...

This tradition is deeply rooted.

Whether it is superstitious or crazy.

This is the tradition of Gaochang.

Tang Can tried to persuade Tuoba, but Tuoba insisted: "It's easy to talk about other things, but this matter is not for discussion."

"In the future, if you give birth to a child, you will be alone, and if the child dies, you will die too, so what?"

"Besides, if no one cares about it and both mother and child die, what should I do?"

"Have you ever thought about how many women can live if there is a midwife?"
