Su Chen felt sorry for the ancients. How many people were killed by close relatives and early marriage! He sighed:

"In fact, early marriage is more serious than close relatives. In many cases, it will lead to the death of the mother."

As a woman, Empress Changsun was very concerned when she heard that early marriage would lead to the death of the mother.

"Su Chen, what is early marriage?"

Su Chen thought for a while, glanced at Changle next to him, and raised his mouth slightly:

"Early marriage means that a woman gets married and gives birth before the age of 18, when her body is still in the growth stage.

If you give birth before the age of 18, there is a high probability that the fetus will die prematurely, and in severe cases, it may lead to the death of the mother.

Or after giving birth, the mother will be weak and sick in the future, and men should also get married after the age of 18."

After Su Chen explained patiently, everyone began to slowly look for cases around them after listening.

They also found relevant cases, but they always thought it was just accidental.

As the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty, Fang Xuanling quickly thought of something. The tax revenue of the Tang Dynasty mainly came from farmers, which was closely related to the population.

"Su Chen, if the marriage age is set after 18, wouldn't the population of the Tang Dynasty grow very slowly?"

Su Chen smiled and shook his head:

"Uncle Fang, you are wrong. The speed of population growth has little to do with the marriage age.

The speed of population growth mainly depends on food and resources. If the people themselves can't eat enough, how dare they have children and how can they raise them?

On the contrary, if there is enough food to eat and wear warm clothes, and there is nothing to do, just have children at home, so the population will increase."

Li Shimin and others looked at each other, and Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and others nodded silently.

Fang Xuanling laughed with a hint of meaning: "Hahaha! Su Chen, Uncle Fang is short-sighted. The prime minister of the Tang Dynasty is not as good as you!"

"Uncle Fang is too kind. I just said it casually!"

"Even if I am right, the Tang Dynasty does not have high-yield grain now."

Wei Zheng couldn't bear it. He thought Su Chen had unique insights and was outstanding in all aspects. He was a good talent for governing the country.

"Su Chen, I see if you are interested in entering the court as an official with your talent?"

Li Shimin wanted to clean up Su Chen and let him enter the court as an official immediately. He was worried that he had no culture before, but now he is not worried.

"Su Chen, don't worry, I still have some face in Chang'an, I can recommend you." Li Shimin immediately expressed his attitude.

Su Chen shook his head: "No, it's too tiring to be a national teacher. Let's talk about it in two years."

"The grain seeds are not in hand yet. Besides, what official can you recommend?"

Li Shimin opened his mouth and couldn't speak. He looked at everyone with a confused face.

‘When did I tell you to be the Imperial Master?’

Everyone below was also stunned. How could this kid talk like that?

After hearing this, Empress Changsun’s wrinkles on her smooth face burst out with laughter.

‘How dare he? At the age of 16, it’s too tiring to be an Imperial Master? Look at what this kid can do.’

Li Shimin immediately stopped eating, picked up the teacup and glanced at Su Chen:

“I really can’t recommend this Imperial Master.”

Su Chen didn’t care and nodded lightly.

“Su kid, do you think it’s possible that His Majesty didn’t want to marry Princess Changle to Changsun Wuji’s son? I think you should stop calling him Li Er in the future. This is not good.”

Li Shimin looked at Su Chen with expectation, hoping that he could change the way he addressed himself.

Su Chen shook his head firmly and laughed:

“He will, probably in about this month, you will know.”

At this time, Empress Changsun looked at her brother and signaled with her eyes.

"Impossible, I heard some time ago that Changsun Chong married a wife, how could he marry a princess?"

Changsun Wuji immediately chimed in, not to mention that he already knew the consequences of inbreeding.

Looking at Changle's attitude towards Su Chen, he knew that Changle would not marry anyone else. His Majesty loved the princess so much, how could he force her to marry?

Su Chen frowned and thought: Could it be that my appearance caused a butterfly effect?

Waved his hand and smiled nonchalantly:

"Maybe I remembered it wrong, I didn't call him Er to his face, you will report me, it's no big deal."

Changle glanced at Li Shimin and then at Su Chen, and glanced back and forth between the two.

She was surprised to find that Aye didn't seem to be too disgusted with Su Chen calling him Li Er.

"Where is her majestic and domineering father? How can he tolerate this?"

Li Shimin sighed helplessly: "That's right, call me whatever you want."

Empress Changsun gave Li Shimin a comforting look: Erlang, I'm sorry for wronging you!

Then she glanced at Changle and then at Su Chen, nodding from time to time.

Su Chen was a little flustered by her look like this, and turned to look at Changle, who also looked at him with a confused face.He.

"Su Chen, have you ever married a woman you like?" He looked at Su Chen with an aunt's smile.

Empress Changsun didn't want such an excellent man to be taken away by someone else.

Changle immediately lowered her head, and Su Chen scratched his head awkwardly, but soon calmed down.

He grabbed Changle's hand, stood up, and looked at Empress Changsun seriously:

"To be honest, I plan to marry a beautiful woman. Do you agree?"

His handsome face, with a faint smile, looked at Empress Changsun, waiting for her answer.

Only then did Li Shimin react that the two had secretly hooked up.

He instantly felt that a cabbage and a basin had been taken away by someone, but he was also happy to see it happen.

Empress Changsun finally kept her aunt's smile, nodded and didn't say anything.

Seeing that Empress Changsun seemed to have agreed, Su Chen glanced at Princess Changle who was bowing her head:

"However, I heard from Li Zhi that she already has an engagement, then..." Su Chen didn't finish his words.

Empress Changsun waved her hand and said: "No, she didn't agree and canceled it long ago."

"Okay, Su Xiaozi and your niece are a perfect match made in heaven. Su Xiaozi will give me two jars of wine and a few kilograms of tea later to celebrate, hehehe..."

Cheng Yaojin came out to congratulate just for the good tea and wine.

Li Shimin glared at Cheng Yaojin, who immediately sat down honestly, but Fang Xuanling also stroked his beard:

"A talented man and a beautiful woman, they are indeed a perfect match!"

The others also flattered him without asking for money.

Su Chen smiled at them politely:

"If you like, uncles, take a few jars of Yuye wine and Tieguanyin when you leave. What we produce is not worth much."

Changsun Wuji secretly glanced at Li Shimin who was sitting in the main seat, and smiled at Su Chen:

"Thank you very much, Su kid, hahaha!"

Changsun Wuji knew Li Shimin too well. That man was stingy and loved to show off. He didn't even mention giving them some wine and tea.

Look, Li Shimin stared at the six people with his eagle eyes, "That's all my money!"

Su Chen didn't know their twists and turns, and pulled Changle back to his original seat.

Changle didn't say a word from beginning to end. She felt that her presence was so low.
