I watched Er Chuang’s short video, and everything went numb!

【After this battle, Long Chuliang became famous in one battle】

【The four major international grain merchants knew how powerful Long Guo was. From then until now, the four major international grain merchants have never dared to short the Long Guo grain market.】

【Moreover, after this battle, our country has also paid more attention to the issue of food security.】

【A few years later, Longguo successfully developed a new generation of rice varieties, which nearly tripled the average grain yield and directly released 40 million acres of staple grain arable land for growing soybeans, further reducing soybean import dependence.】

【At the same time, in 2016, foreign capital’s control of the oil processing industry in Longguo was regained by domestic capital. Foreign capital was diluted from 85% absolute control to only 30% of the shares. Longguo regained control of the grain and oil processing industry. right】

【Food security is extremely important. Currently, the staple foods of Dragon Kingdom are wheat, corn, and rice. These are key foods for people to have full stomachs.】

【With the population and cultivated land area of ​​the Dragon Kingdom, it is impossible for the Dragon Kingdom to be self-sufficient in staple food and soybeans at the same time. Therefore, Longguo’s strategy is: the staple food must be self-sufficient, and soybeans can be imported to a certain extent.】

"Even for imports, since 2013, it has got rid of its dependence on soybeans from the Eagle Country. Samba Country has surpassed the Eagle Country to become my country's largest source of soybean imports."

"Reply - Well done, Yingjiang Country is so ambitious that we must not rely on Yingjiang Country"

"Food security is so important, we must ensure the absolute safety of staple food"

"The Eagle Sauce Country is so bad, it actually came up with such a vicious method of food war."

"Reply - Trivia: Playing food war, we China are the ancestors"

"Reply - Indeed, our ancestors played it thousands of years ago. Have Qi Wan and Lu Jin ever heard of it?"

"…………"

Great Ming Dynasty Chengzu Plane

"Yes, Qi Wan Lu Jin"

"This method has been used by some of us in China a long time ago."

Zhu Gaochi suddenly realized when he saw the four words"Qi Wan Lu Zhen" in the giant screen high in the sky.

He just felt that this method of controlling or destroying other countries through food was a bit familiar.

He just didn't think of it for a moment.

At this time, he was barraged. Reminder, I remembered it

"Dad, what does Qi Wan Lu Jin mean? Zhu

Zhanji asked curiously.

Zhu Gaochi replied:

"This was a strategy used by Qi Prime Minister Guan Zhong to conquer the State of Lu during the Spring and Autumn Period."

"Guan Zhong asked the people of Qi to change their clothes from Qi's cotton cloth to Lu's silk cloth, which caused the price of silk cloth to rise. He also banned the people of Qi from weaving silk cloth, but opened it to Lu."

"Therefore, all the people of Lu State produced this kind of silk cloth, and all other production was stopped. The food had to be bought from Qi State, but Lu State did not care, because producing these silk cloths can make more money, and if you have money, you can Buy grain from Qi State"

"A year later, Guan Zhong issued an order: No one in Qi was allowed to wear silk clothes from Lu."

"At this time, Lu State had nothing to grow except a large amount of silk. They originally thought that as long as they had money, they could buy grain, but Qi State would not sell it to them if they had grain."

"As a result, Lu was forced to sign a treaty to obey Qi."

After the words fell, Zhu Di on the side said:

"Guan Zhong not only used this method against Lu, he also bought elk from Chu, fox skins from Dai, and firewood from Lai and Ju. He used this method of controlling other countries with food many times. Tried and tested"

"Qi's ability to become the hegemon in the Spring and Autumn Period was largely due to Guan Zhong's planning."

Zhu Di is also a person who likes to read. He has also read the life story of Guan Zhong, who is known as the first Prime Minister of the Spring and Autumn Period.

After listening to the words of the two people, Zhu Zhanji also understood

……

The plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin, Zhang Sun Wuji and others also thought about Qi Wan and Lu Jin.

However, they did not talk about this matter at the moment. Instead, they stared at a barrage on the giant screen in the sky:

"I also read about the method of food war in a time-traveling online article. A man traveled to the Tang Dynasty and used food war to control Tubo. He taught the Tubo people to use highland barley to make wine, and then purchased large quantities of highland barley wine and raised the price, inducing the Tubo people to use highland barley to make wine. They could only import grain from the Tang Dynasty."

After thinking for a moment, Li Shimin asked:

"Dear friends, is this plan feasible?"

"Your Majesty, I think it's worth a try. Human nature tends to be profitable. If selling highland barley wine can make huge profits and at the same time buy low-priced grain, the Tibetan people will definitely use all their highland barley to make wine."

"For a long time, the Tang Dynasty was able to control Tubo through food. Changsun

Wuji was the first to ask.

Then

Fang Xuanling also said:

"Your Majesty, I also think this plan is feasible. As long as the Tang Dynasty continues to buy highland barley wine, the Tubo people will plant highland barley on their own land to make wine in order to make money. In this way, they will be short of food and can only buy from us. Datang obtained"

"Your Majesty, you can indeed give it a try. You can first convince the princes and nobles of Tubo to take the lead in using highland barley to make wine. As long as the benefits are sufficient, they will be willing. Once the trend is established, even if Tubo Zanpu wants to stop it, there will be nothing he can do."

"Your Majesty, I agree with the opinions of the great lords.……"

Others also expressed their opinions.

Almost everyone agreed to give it a try and put forward their own strategic suggestions.

"Okay, if that's the case, let's give it a try"

"Xuanling, I will leave this matter to you."

Li Shimin finally made a decisive decision.

If this plan is successful, the Tang Dynasty will be able to control Tubo without a single blow.

If this plan fails, it will not cause too much loss to the Tang Dynasty.

"Obey the decree."

Fang Xuanling replied respectfully.

…………

In the giant screen high in the sky.

Video refreshes.

A new video title appears:

【The reason why the Eastern Han emperor was short-lived revealed】

【As we all know, among the ancient Chinese dynasties, the average life span of the Eastern Han Dynasty emperors was the shortest, only 26.71 years old.】

【And except for the first emperor and the last emperor, the rest of the emperors who lived to be forty years old were already burning incense.】

【Although the average life span of ancient Chinese people is generally not as high as modern people, this average life span is too low.】

【What's even more ironic is that during the peaceful period of the Eastern Han Dynasty, many emperors lived longer than the common people of the Eastern Han Dynasty.】

【So as an emperor, enjoying the best medical conditions in a country and living in a peaceful era, it is obviously unreasonable to have such a short lifespan.】

【So, what was the reason why the Emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty was so short-lived?】

【Let’s talk about this issue today. 】

After listening to this preface.

Except for a few underage and ignorant emperors, all the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty were shocked and looked intently at the giant screen high in the sky.

This is a matter of life and death for them.

In addition to the Eastern Han Dynasty, the other emperors in the other outer planes were also very concerned about this topic.

They were also curious, why were the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty so short-lived?

【The emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty was short-lived. I think there are four reasons.】

【Let me first talk about one of the most important reasons in my opinion, which is the marriage of close relatives.】

【As we all know, the so-called consanguineous marriage refers to the marriage between direct blood relatives or collateral blood relatives within three generations. For example, a cousin marrying a cousin, which was popular in ancient times, is a typical consanguineous marriage.】

【The vast majority of the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty had parents who were married to close relatives, and their relatives were not related for more than five generations. This directly led to the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty being prone to genetic diseases.】

【From the perspective of modern medicine, couples who are married to consanguineous relatives are too closely related, and both parties have too many similar genetic factors, so that their offspring cannot produce mutations from them, and they are likely to acquire disease-carrying genes from their common ancestors. sex gene】

【If this gene carries diseases that are difficult to treat, it will easily cause the offspring to suffer from dementia, mental retardation, malformation, schizophrenia, congenital heart disease, hypertension and other genetic diseases.】

【And the closer the relatives are, the greater the probability of genetic diseases.】

"I’m curious. In ancient times, incestuous marriages, such as cousins ​​marrying cousins, were very popular. Why are there so few records of deformed children? Is it possible that marriage between close relatives is actually not a big problem?"

"Reply - Is it possible that under the conditions in ancient times, deformed babies would not even survive to be born and would be stillborn?"

"Reply - Indeed, the miscarriage rate in consanguineous marriages is already high."

"Reply - There is another possibility. People in ancient times valued face. If a deformed child was born, they would probably cover up the news or deal with it directly."

"Reply - Don't be suspicious. I've seen a statistic. I don't talk about the high probability of deformed children, but just talk about those born normally. The mortality rate of offspring of consanguineous marriages before the age of 20 is as high as 13.9.%"

"Reply - The country's laws expressly prohibit the marriage of close relatives, so don't doubt this."

"Reply - That is, if there is no scientific basis, will the country issue a law to ban it? Don't doubt everything all day long." (To read exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

"Reply – Isn’t it a well-known fact that if close relatives marry, fools will appear within three generations?"

"…………"

The ancient people of all dynasties were all stunned when they looked at the giant screen in the sky.

Both the content of the video and the content of the comments shocked them.

This information had a huge impact on them.

In ancient China,"kiss-to-cousin" was popular, and it was too common for a cousin to marry his cousin.

In their minds, there is nothing wrong with this and it is a good thing.

But people in later generations say that the marriage of direct blood relatives or collateral blood relatives within three generations is called consanguineous marriage in later generations, and children born from consanguineous marriages will be disabled, become stupid, get sick, and die early?

"This is impossible, right?"

Many ancient people are not willing to believe this.

This concept of close relatives has been circulated in ancient China for a long time, and it is too difficult for them to suddenly change their minds.

However, some ancient people believed this statement.

Because they have grown from giants to The screen saw all kinds of miraculous things about future generations, and they were convinced by the information revealed by the giant screen.

And these people considered rejecting close relatives' marriages in the future.

Not only ordinary people in the past dynasties were surprised[]

The emperors from all realms in the past dynasties were even more shocked.

In ancient China, due to various reasons such as maintaining the purity of blood and consolidating imperial power, the ancient royal family was the hardest hit area by incest marriages.

Therefore, this information has an even stronger impact on them.

……

The plane of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty.

Liu Che's face was filled with surprise and uncertainty.

According to the classification of consanguineous marriages by later generations.

The Han royal family did this kind of thing a lot.

For example, Zhang, the queen of Emperor Hui, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, was the niece of Emperor Hui.

There is also his own queen, the daughter of his biological aunt Liu Piao.

All in all, they are all marriages between close relatives.

"Is there really a problem?"

Liu Che was thinking in his mind.

He even thought of it.

His queen Chen Ajiao has been unable to have children. Even after searching all the famous doctors in the world, they couldn't solve it. Could it be related to the fact that they were married to incest?

…………

The plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty.

Li Shimin was also shocked at this moment.

Because according to the theory of consanguineous marriage in later generations.

He also did the marriage of close relatives.

His biological grandmother, Dugu Yuanzhen, is a biological sister to his concubine Yang Fei's biological grandmother, Dugu Jialuo.

And among the sons he gave birth to to Concubine Yang, there was really a silly son named Li Min who was not very smart.

"Auxiliary machine, is it true what you said about this future generation?"

Li Shimin asked Chang Sun Wuji:

"Return to Your Majesty, I am not sure"

"However, people from later generations said that the Dragon Kingdom in later generations issued laws prohibiting the marriage of close relatives. There must be some truth to this."

Changsun Wuji replied after considering it.

Li Shimin didn't speak anymore, but continued to look at the giant screen high in the sky.

……

In addition to the plane of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty and the plane of Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty, many emperors in other dynasty planes were shocked by this.

The problem of consanguineous marriage existed widely in many dynasties in ancient China.

Therefore, many emperors, like Li Shimin, are very concerned about the content of the next video.

They want to know whether marriage between close relatives is really that harmful?

High-altitude giant screen.

The video continues to play

【In order to explain the problem of incest marriage among the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty, let me take a detailed inventory of the genetic problems of these emperors during the peaceful period of the Eastern Han Dynasty.】

【The first one is Emperor Ming of Han Dynasty】

【Emperor Ming's father was Liu Xiu and his mother was Yin Lihua. ]

720 [Liu Xiu and Yin Lihua are definitely not close relatives, so in the generation of Emperor Ming of the Han Dynasty, the problem of consanguineous marriage did not exist yet】

【The second one is Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty. His father is Emperor Han Ming and his mother is Queen Ma. There is no problem of incest marriage in this generation.】

【But after this, the problems begin】

【The third one is Emperor He of the Han Dynasty. His father, Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty, is the grandson of Liu Xiu. His biological mother, the Liang family, is from the Liang family.】

【Liang's eldest aunt was Liu Xiu's eldest daughter, so later historians speculated that Liang's mother, the grandmother of Emperor He of the Han Dynasty, was most likely a royal relative of the Liu family.】

【Although it is unlikely that she is Liu Xiu's daughter, she is likely to be a descendant of Liu Yan or another Liu family in Chongling.】

【Therefore, from this point on, the problem of consanguineous marriage may exist】

【Later, Liu Long, the son of Emperor He of the Han Dynasty,】

【There is no record of Liu Long's biological mother in the history books, but the harems of the Eastern Han emperors basically came from those big families.】

【For example, Yin, the first queen of Emperor He of the Han Dynasty, was the great-granddaughter of the brother of the great-grandmother of the Emperor He of the Han Dynasty.】

【Therefore, Liu Long's mother was most likely in the same situation, because at that time, the Eastern Han Dynasty could only choose concubines from those big families.】

【As for the following emperors, except for Emperor Han'an, all the other emperors had more or less incest marriages.】

【It was not until the generation of Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty that the Yellow Turban Uprising broke out in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the power of several high-level families was weakened.】

【Therefore, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty did not choose concubines from the top families, but chose commoner women.】

【For example, the mother of Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty came from a commoner family, and there was no record of intermarriage with the royal family of the Eastern Han Dynasty.】

【Therefore, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty was not the product of an incestuous marriage. He was not likely to suffer from genetic diseases, so he lived longer.】

"Good guy, although we all know that incest marriage is very harmful, UP Master, this is all speculation. There is no clear evidence that the emperors of the Eastern Han Dynasty were all the product of incest marriage."

"Reply - Although it is a guess, it is still reliable. During the Eastern Han Dynasty, those groups of foreign relatives had been intermarrying with the Liu royal family for a long time. It would be strange if there were no close relatives getting married."

"Reply - There should be incest marriages in the Eastern Han Dynasty royal family. For example, the Queen Dou of Emperor Zhang of the Han Dynasty was the granddaughter of his uncle, so she was more or less related by blood. However, the Dou family had never had children, so she adopted Emperor He of the Han Dynasty as her son."

"Reply - There is no doubt that it was not the marriage of close relatives that would have prevented so many emperors from being so short-lived. For example, there is another example, the Constitution of the Tang DynastyMarried to his cousin's aunt, the two gave birth to Mu Zong, who was born with poor health and died before the age of thirty. The following Mu Zong's descendants, Jingzong, Wenzong, and Wuzong, did not live long."

"Reply - There is no doubt about the consequences of incest marriage. There is a country in the West where the royal family has been marrying incest for the sake of pure blood, and in the end all their descendants have died."

"…………"

Many ancient people in the past dynasties were horrified when they saw this place. in.

The royal families of various dynasties, which are hardest hit by incest marriages, are particularly frightened.

They realized that the problem was serious..
