Chapter 22 Even Yingzheng did not dare to approve it (3/4)
“Meng Yi and Zhao Gao have always had enmity!”
“Use Meng Yi to scare Zhao Gao, this is a wonderful strategy!”
Hearing what the man in black said, Ying Zheng was immediately happy!
It seems that his ninth son is not only a waste of ignorance, on the contrary, he is quite strategic!
However, at this time, he just thought Ying Ziye was scaring Zhao Gao.
“Right, what happened later?”
The comfortable Ying Zheng continued to ask with interest.
“After Master Zhao took Master Chun out in a hurry to raise money!”
“His Royal Highness Nine appointed the Grand Prince in charge of the treasury, and ordered Zhisu Neishi to assist him!”
The man in black looked at the piece of silk cloth in his hand and continued on.
The things about Chaotang and Ying Ziye were all recorded on the silk cloth.
The dark guards of Heibingtai all use special silk cloth to transmit messages.
Although this material is expensive, it is convenient to carry and convey messages.
“Let Fusu take charge of the treasury?”
Ying Zheng squeezed his chin and thought.
But after thinking about it for a long time, I didn’t understand what Ying Ziye meant.
However, this kid did not reject dissidents and attacked his competitors. Instead, he arranged official posts for his competitors, which was beyond his expectation.
To know the final candidate of the prince, only one of the three of them will be chosen.
This kid seems quite unwise to help his competitors at this time!
“Later, His Royal Highness the Nine issued several tax reform decrees in succession…”
The man in black took the piece of silk cloth, and read all the detailed decree including how Ying Ziye in the court levied taxes from the nobles and the tycoons, how to divide the land for the poor people, and so on!
These are all the contents recorded by the dark guards of the Black Ice Terrace, because they are to be presented to the emperor, so I strive to be true to the word!
“Yes, Not Bad!”
“If the tax can be collected according to this method, let alone a treasury, even if it is ten, it can be full!”
What Ying Zheng listened to was repeated nodding.
In the past, the land rent tax was levied on a household basis. A household of 100,000 mu was also levied on a hundred mu.
Even if there is no acre of land in the family, the tax is levied on a household basis of 100 acres.
This kind of collection method makes the rich people cheaper and the people suffer. It’s only strange that the treasury can have money!
Because the rich do not pay taxes, the poor do!
The poor are already poor, so how can they have any money to pay taxes?
But how easy is it to collect taxes from the rich?
An official is one of the rich!
The relationship between North Korean and Chinese officials and those nobles and gentry is intertwined, either accepting bribes or even married!
Even the concubines in his harem are from all the nobles!
Thinking of this, his face gradually became serious again.
What he can do nothing about himself, I wonder if his son can do it?
“What is puzzling is that after His Royal Highness the Nine announced the tax reform decree, no official actually stood up to oppose it!”
“Seeing that no one was speaking, His Highness the Ninth Lord broke up!”
“However, according to the news just received by his subordinates, His Highness Nine ordered Wang Ben and Zhang Han to lead soldiers and horses from outside the city into the city!”
“All the residences of the officials who opposed the tax collection were surrounded, and they were ordered to only enter and not to leave!”
“His Royal Highness also asked Wang and General Zhang Er to give talks to the officials. If they fail to complete the task after two months, they will all be copied!”
Seeing that Ying Zheng was only pacing back and forth without speaking, the man in black continued to report.
“Oh?”
“Is there anything else?”
Hearing what he said, Ying Zheng twitched the corners of his mouth, it seemed that he did not know whether to laugh or cry.
But soon, he lighted his head with satisfaction, “This is a good way to deter, eh! It seems that this kid is a bit brainy, and he did better than I expected!”
“Your Majesty Qizou, a hundred officials from civil and military come to see you!”
At this moment, a little eunuch hurried in.
“Oh?”
“Come so fast?”
Ying Zheng twitched his mouth and smiled, and he didn’t need to guess that he knew that these people were here to sue the imperial court.
His own son surrounded their mansion and had to copy them all over the house. It’s not a rush!
“Let them in!”
Ying Zheng waved his hand, and then ordered the man in black, “Go down. If you have any news, report it immediately!”
“According to the purpose!”
The man in black flashed out of the imperial study room, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
As soon as he disappeared, the little eunuch led a large number of officials into the imperial study room.
“His Majesty!”
“Your Majesty wants to be the masters of the ministers!”
Before the first emperor could ask a question, a large group of people knelt down in the imperial study room.
“what happened?”
Ying Zheng suppressed his smile, pretending to be surprised and asked.
The monarch and ministers did not kneel and worship when they met, unless they were wronged or forced to go to a dead end, they would kneel down and beg each other.
Obviously, his son scared them a lot!
“Your Majesty is going to be the master of the ministers!”
“Wang Ben and Zhang Han privately transferred soldiers and horses from outside the city into Xianyang City, and they also surrounded the residences of ministers and others!”
“Without the will of your majesty, to transfer soldiers and horses from outside the city into the city is a capital crime of treason!”
“Please also your Majesty arrest the king and Zhang, and rectify them in order to behave like you!”
“After they surrounded the mansion of the minister, they threatened to copy the full gate of the minister. The old father of the minister was so frightened that he…he passed away, woooo…!”
“Your Majesty, please be fair to his courtiers!”
“The death of Chen’s old father is so wrong…!”
All the ministers told the imperial court with one word and one word, and some even cried.
For a while, the royal study room was very lively.
Ying Zheng, who couldn’t speak at all, simply put his chin on his hands and watched a joke at the desk.
“Your Majesty, Your Majesty…?”
The ministers complained for a long time, and found that Ying Zheng had no response, so he quieted down quickly.
Finally, someone called out twice, seeming to want to see if he fell asleep?
“what?”
“Have you finished?”
I heard some sleepy Ying Zheng, and then I came back to my senses.
“Chen wait… finished!”
Shaofu Sima Xin, who was kneeling on the ground, bit his head and nodded.
After co-authoring them for a long time, the first emperor didn’t hear a word?
“Oh, that’s it…?”
Ying Zheng rubbed his sour eyes, so he pretended to say seriously: “Wang Ben and Zhang Han are loyal to me. It is absolutely impossible to transfer troops into the city without authorization. There must be other reasons for this!”
“Yes!”
“According to the two of them, it was the order of His Royal Highness Nine that only then moved their troops into the city!”
“The Nine Young Master also gave an order. If he doesn’t complete the task he handed in two months later, he will copy all the courtiers!”
“The taxation standards set by the Nine Young Masters are like ransacking their homes from aristocratic gentry!”
“Will those aristocrats and gentry sit and wait to die?”
“Therefore, it is difficult to collect taxes from the rich, and it will be impossible to complete it in two months!”
“Please also your Majesty let the Ninth Young Master let his ministers go!”
“It really doesn’t work… It really doesn’t work, I’ll wait for the collective resignation, let’s quit the head office!”
One of the elderly civil servants stood up, and he said sadly.
In the end, he even threatened to resign collectively.
This trick, but they came up with it on the way.
If all of them resigned and quit, the court would not function, and Daqin would be in chaos!
Even Yingzheng did not dare to approve it!
