REBIRTH OF THE GENTLENESS PART 1

The winter of the thirty-fifth year of the Great Qi was especially cold. Outside, snowflakes were flying freely, and the rich people were hiding in their rooms, not wanting to go out. But the poor people were worried, wondering if they could endure the cold of this winter. In a farmer's courtyard, an old man was busy in the kitchen. While cooking, he was wiping away tears. His face was filled with endless sorrow. Wen Wan opened her eyes heavily, wanting to move, but found that her entire body was limp, without any strength. She looked around in a daze. The room was made of wooden planks and tiled roof. The light in the room was dim, but it was relatively spacious. Other than the bed she was sleeping on, there was a set of chairs inside that was slightly higher than the sofa, looking like a bed and like a toy.

The Emperor looked at King Zhao, indifferently and as if completely devoid of any emotion, he said: “Unrighteous, disloyal, unfilial, take him down and imprison him in the Zongren Mansion.” Who knew that when the Emperor said these words, his heart was also bleeding. A dignified Prince, in the blink of an eye, had become a prisoner. In that instant, King Zhao saw that the Emperor’s eyes were still calm, and a chill and a heavy despair suddenly welled up in his heart, spreading to the top of his head, until it spread throughout his entire body.

The emperor waved his hand, letting the minister follow Eunuch Sun down: “There’s no one now, you can speak!” Wen Wan still shook her head, showing that she really didn’t hear anything. The emperor remained silent: “Don’t pretend to be confused, speak up, is there anything wrong.” Wen Wan shook her head honestly: “Young Master Emperor, you’re really making things difficult for me. I’ve only heard about these policies, but I don’t understand them. But I feel that the yield per mu is too low. The best rice fields only yield six to seven hundred catties a year. At least it has to reach a thousand catties to barely pass the test.”

“Congratulations, Princess Gui, Congratulations, Princess Gui…” King Zheng said with a smiling face, rewarding each person with ten taels of silver. Everyone felt extremely happy when they heard this, being rewarded with money was naturally very good. “Wan'er, I received news that your grandfather has given you four fiefdoms. Your fiefdom is about two districts long. I guess it is near my fiefdom.” King Trinh looked at Wen Wan who was standing motionless, not knowing whether he was happy or upset. In the Great Qi court, there were about a dozen princesses and county lords who were appointed as county lords. However, only five were granted titles and lands. I don't know what the emperor was thinking when he granted Wen Wan the title of Noble and lands.

Yen Ky Hien returned to the palace and knew that On Uyen was bullied by Mao Tan Trach. He was angry and wanted to find someone to take revenge, but Mao Tan Trach was currently hiding in the house and did not dare to come out. Yen Ky Hien was furious and followed closely behind On Uyen, complaining: “Phất Khê, you were bullied and you didn’t tell me, do you still consider me as your brother? Such a big matter, you just let people bully you? Don’t worry, I will definitely find him to collect this debt, I will definitely let everyone know, daring to bully you will have to pay a heavy price.”

“Your Majesty, what happened?” The palace maid beside her hurriedly asked. The imperial concubine shook her head, thinking to herself, hoping that it wasn't what she thought. Right now, she could only do her best to entice Wen Wan. Even if she couldn't borrow her strength, she could at least make her stand firm, unable to lean to one side, only towards Prince Zheng. But in her heart, she also knew clearly that this was simply a distant hope. At the banquet, when Wen Wan revealed her identity, the two of them knew each other, so they were definitely on the same boat. Moreover, King Zheng was also an extremely ambitious person, he treated Wen Wan even better than he did his own daughter. How much sincerity was there inside, even smart people would know. Because he deliberately favored her, Wen Wan and him were as close as father and daughter, the two of them communicated four or five times a month, extremely often. Under such circumstances, wanting to pull her to his side was simply joking. The virtuous concubine would not do useless things.

Wen Wan stretched out her ten long and slender fingers, everyone stared at the diamond ring on her finger. Although the ring was very ordinary, Wen Wan liked it very much. Her tone was also very sweet: “This is a wedding gift from my husband (outside, I don’t usually call him husband). The ring doesn’t have any design, but this diamond ring is also called a diamond ring, which means never leaving or abandoning, the promise is eternal and unchanging, so I like it very much.” Wen Wan called him husband, not County Horse. Everyone could hear the joy and happiness in Wen Wan’s words. It was also because of Wen Wan’s words that the diamond of Da Qi was completely renamed diamond. It also made diamond rings instantly popular throughout the capital. Anyone who was about to get married would order a pair of good diamond rings, and give them to the bride on their wedding night. Of course, this was a story for later.

When the Imperial Concubine received the news, she immediately revealed a satisfied smile: “I didn’t expect this child to value wealth more than life. I was really too sentimental before. Loving money is good, as long as you have something you like, it’s good enough.” Guo Mama beside him laughed and said, “This servant has long said that Your Highness is too thoughtful. Such a child, why would Your Highness need to worry about him? Look, isn’t it just mud that can’t be applied to the wall? I wonder what His Majesty’s reaction will be when he receives the news. Concubine Su and Princess Fu Hui are both noble and pure people, how could they give birth to a child who loves money as much as life.”

Documents the rise and fall of a market economy in China from 1000–1500. Since the economic liberalization of the 1980s, the Chinese economy has boomed and is poised to become the world’s largest market economy, a position traditional China held a millennium ago. William Guanglin Liu’s bold and fascinating book is the first to rely on quantitative methods to investigate the early market economy that existed in China, making use of rare market and population data produced by the Song dynasty in the eleventh century. A counterexample comes from the century around 1400 when the early Ming court deliberately turned agrarian society into a command economy system. This radical change not only shrank markets, but also caused a sharp decline in the living standards of common people. Liu’s landmark study of the rise and fall of a market economy highlights important issues for contemporary China at both the empirical and theoretical levels.
