Start with the emperor system and build an immortal dynasty

Chapter 46 Determination

Looking at the beautiful woman who was close at hand, Xia Tian stretched out his hand to hold her in his arms, with a mean smile on his face.

"From now on, you will dance alone for me, understand?"

Man Xue's heart was pounding, she was both surprised and apprehensive.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"I named you a beauty, and I will concentrate on serving me from now on."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

The concubines in the harem are also divided into ranks, for example, the queen is a super first-rank existence.

Xianfei belongs to the first-rank concubines, and there are also Liangfei, Shufei, and Defei.

The fourth concubine is a virtuous and virtuous concubine, and one step further up is the throne of the queen.

A beauty is a fourth-rank concubine, and her status and status can be considered very high in the harem.

The status of beauty is already the highest level of reward for Fei'er, Ran'er and Man Xue in front of them.

After all, their backgrounds are relatively low, and it is almost impossible for them to become one of the first-rank four concubines.

If he can give birth to an heir for His Majesty, his status may go a step further.

"Don't be so tense and restrained, just relax like you dance."

Xia Tian felt that she was a little nervous, and guided her step by step.

As expected of a dancing girl, Man Xue has unlocked more knowledge than ordinary people.

Both were very comfortable.

After tossing until midnight, the two embraced each other and fell asleep.

Before dawn the next day, Xiao Xuanzi woke him up outside on time.

Xia Tian woke up, although he tossed until midnight, but he didn't feel tired at all.

It may have something to do with the realm, he can be regarded as a master now.

Man Xue's eyes were sleepy, she moved slightly, and frowned in pain.

Seeing her appearance, Xia Tian smiled softly: "Don't get up, take a good rest."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your mercy."

Xia Tian took her in his arms and bowed his head and kissed her.

A few minutes later, Xia Tian got up and walked out of the bedroom, and went to morning court after breakfast.

In addition to saying that the northern wolf country is about to move, this morning is about the literary and martial arts examinations.

The court meeting was over, and Xia Tian returned to the imperial study to start handling government affairs.

"Your Majesty, the disciples from the Sword King Pavilion are here."

Gu Xingchang has already left the capital, and the more than 20 disciples he brought this time have stayed.

Xia Tian got up and walked out of the imperial study room, and saw Gu Chenxi, Shangguan Chen and other disciples of the Sword King Pavilion.

"I have seen Your Majesty."

Shangguan Chen, Gu Chenxi and others bowed to salute.

Xia Tian looked at the crowd and said indifferently: "From now on, you will be the members of the Dragon Shadow Guard. Commander Xie will tell you what the Dragon Shadow Guard's responsibilities are."

"Commander Xie led them down and told them their responsibilities."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Xie An left here with the disciples from the Sword King Pavilion.

Xia Tian looked at Gu Chenxi's heroic figure and thought that such a wild beauty would be very cool.

Cough cough, why am I becoming a bit dirty now?

Returning to the Imperial Study Room, Xia Tian continued to process the memorial.

Half an hour later, Xiao Xuanzi walked in: "Your Majesty, Shangguan Shangshu is asking to see you."

"come in."

Xiao Xuanzi walked in with Shangguan Chengye.

"Your Majesty, this is the new tax we formulated according to your plan."

Xiao Xuanzi took the memorial and handed it to Xia Tian.

Xia Tian opened it and looked at it, the memorial was very long, and the various taxes were written very clearly.

All miscellaneous taxes for ordinary people were exempted, and commercial taxes were increased by grades.

Merchants with higher incomes need to pay more taxes, and the taxes that need to be paid vary according to different incomes.

"Yes, this new tax system is not bad. The Ministry of Household Affairs needs to set up a new department to manage tax supervision."

Shangguan Chengye: "Your Majesty, I don't know whether I should say something or not."

"Shangguan loves you, but it's okay to say."

"The new taxation system will touch the interests of most princes and nobles. It will be very difficult to implement it, and it will even arouse their fierce resistance."

Xia Tian: "Whoever dares to resist me will kill him."

"If most of the people, Your Majesty, unite together, what should we do? Are they going to be killed? Eighty-ninety percent of the court officials are princes, nobles and family members. Kill them all and the court will be over."

Xia Tian smiled slightly: "Shangguan Aiqing is right, but I believe that most people in the world are afraid of death."

Shangguan Chengye's heart trembled when he heard this.

Yes, who is not afraid of death.

If blood flows like a river, how many people can resist the fear of death?

Your Majesty is already ready to kill.

It's really scary to have such means and heart at such an age.

The problem that Shangguan Chengye said, Xia Tian had already thought about it.

In severe cases, strong drugs are required.

The Great Xia Dynasty was already on the verge of collapse, and if they wanted long-term stability and stability, they had to do this.

"Shangguan Aiqing knows that you have many friends, I hope you can remind them not to run into my knife."

Shangguan Chengye: "I understand."

"Tomorrow I will announce tax reform, let's go."

When Shangguan Chengye went out, Xia Tian continued to process the memorial.

At noon, Xia Tian had almost finished handling the memorial.

"Little Xuanzi is going to the Palace of Compassion, where I will have lunch at noon."

"It's Your Majesty."

Mercy Palace.

When Xia Tian walked into the palace, Chai Jing was teasing the pet in her arms.

This is a fox cat, a famous pet among nobles.

"Heaven has come."

Chai Jing saw a smile on his face.

Xia Tian: "Where did this fox cat come from?"

"Princess Jingle sent it to the queen mother. She just left for a while,"

Women are more careful.

Chai Jing lives alone. She is in her thirties, just like a wolf... No, she is at the prime of her life.

Having a pet can also pass the time and divert attention.

If Chai Jing couldn't help raising her face, Xia Tian couldn't bear it.

Leaving aside the royal face, he alone cannot accept it.

"This fox cat is quite beautiful. Sister Jingyan probably spent a lot of effort to get it."

Chai Jing smiled: "This child often comes to see me, and she is also a hard-working child."

When Xia Jingyan was a few years old, her mother died of dystocia, and later she was also raised by Chai Jing.

"Sister Jingyan is quite a nice person, and she has strong business skills. The business of Princess Jingle's Mansion is not small."

"Why does this girl do these things? Can't our royal family afford her a princess?"

"It's not disgraceful for a queen mother to do business. Commerce is very important to a dynasty. If land cultivation is the foundation of the dynasty, then business operations are the ladder for the dynasty's progress."

"But the ancients said that businessmen value profits and only seek profits."

"Under the strict laws, they don't have that opportunity. It's bluffing people to say that businessmen are mercenary. Many court officials and ordinary people are also mercenary. It can only be said that there are such people everywhere."

Chai Jing smiled on her mature and charming face: "Tian'er is right."

"Queen Mother, Uncle Chai Guo is asking to see you."

Xia Tian was taken aback, could it be the mother's younger brother?

What is he doing here?

Chapter 47

Chai An, who died at the time, was Chai Jing's eldest brother, and Chai Jing also had a younger brother named Chai Boyuan.

This person did not enter the official career, but was in business.

Although Xia Tian copied Chai Anman's family, Chai Boyuan was not involved in it, so he was allowed to inherit the title of Duke.

Chai Jing said lightly, "Let him in."

Soon, a middle-aged man walked into the palace.

When he saw Xia Tian next to Chai Jing, Chai Boyuan froze for a moment.

"I pay respects to Your Majesty."

"Uncle Guo is free."

Chai Jing asked, "Boyuan, what do you want from me?"

Chai Boyuan glanced at Xia Tian with hesitation.

"Is it inconvenient for uncle Guo to be here? Then you talk to the queen mother, and I will go out first."

Chai Jing's face darkened: "Speak up if you have something to say, don't be silly, why can't you listen to me?"

Chai Boyuan was also taken aback by Xia Tian's words, he is the emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty, who would dare to let him avoid it.

This nephew of mine was too cruel, and he fell into a passive position with just one sentence.

Chai Boyuan knelt on the ground with a thud, and burst into tears: "Sister, you have to save me, I am only a younger brother like you."

Chai Jing frowned: "What happened?"

Xia Tian sat there looking at him indifferently, wondering what this guy did.

Chai Boyuan: "Sister, I...a business I run was discovered by Li Chengze from Chengtian Mansion."

"what business?"

"It's a business similar to a flower house."

"Why did Mr. Li investigate your business? What did you do?"
