The Princess' Rebirth and Revenge

Chapter 171 The Talented Woman Shows Her Talent

Lin Wanqing smiled slightly and said softly: "It is a blessing for Yunhan Country that Your Highness can think this through. Wanqing believes that Your Highness will be able to lead Yunhan Country to a more prosperous future."

After a series of ideological struggles and careful consideration, Haoyu finally made a decision. He decided to put aside his personal feelings and keep this deep affection deep in his heart. He knew that it was extremely difficult for him to do so, but for the benefit of the country and the people, he had to do so.

Haoyu told Wei An about this decision. After hearing this, Wei An's eyes flashed with mixed emotions, but he quickly regained his composure. He knew what Haoyu's decision meant and understood Haoyu's painstaking efforts.

"Your Highness, I am surprised by your decision, but I understand it." Wei An's voice was low and firm. "No matter when and where, I will be loyal to you and to the Yunhan Kingdom."

Haoyu looked at Wei An, his heart filled with gratitude and guilt: "Wei An, thank you. Your understanding and support are my greatest motivation. Let us fight side by side and work together for the future of Yunhan Country."

The two smiled at each other. There was no need for words, as they understood each other's intentions.

In the spring of Yunhan Kingdom, the sun is shining, everything is reviving, and the imperial city is full of vitality. In this season full of hope, an unknown talented woman is quietly changing the fate of the country with her outstanding political talent. She is Wei An, the general's daughter who occupies a special place in Haoyu's heart, and is now gradually emerging on the political stage.

One morning, the sky was full of morning glow. In the magnificent court, civil and military officials lined up in a solemn and serious atmosphere. Haoyu sat on the dragon throne, his eyes sharp as a torch, examining the officials below. Recently, the state affairs were busy, and the border wars had ups and downs. Haoyu felt the pressure doubled, and urgently needed a capable assistant to share the heavy responsibility. And Wei An was the best candidate in his mind.

"My dear ministers, I have heard recently that there are many complaints from the people. It is because the tax laws are onerous and the people cannot bear the heavy burden. I want to reform the tax laws to reduce the burden on the people. I wonder if you have any good ideas?" Haoyu's voice echoed in the court, sounding particularly solemn.

The ministers looked at each other and discussed the matter. Tax reform affects the whole body, so they need to act with caution. Just when everyone was hesitating, a clear voice broke the silence: "Your Majesty, I have a plan that may solve your worries."

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw Wei An stepping forward, looking heroic and with wisdom in his eyes. Seeing this, Haoyu's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise and motioned Wei An to continue.

Wei An stepped forward, bowed, and then slowly said: "Your Majesty, the heavy tax laws are indeed the accumulated problems of the past dynasties. I think that if we want to reform the tax laws, we must start from the root, that is, to reduce the burden on the people and increase the country's fiscal revenue at the same time."

"Oh? My dear, what specific strategy do you have?" Haoyu asked with interest.

Wei An smiled slightly and said confidently: "Your Majesty, I suggest implementing a progressive tax system, that is, levying taxes in different levels according to the income of the people. Those with low incomes will be taxed less, and those with high incomes will be taxed more. This will not only reduce the burden on the poor, but also ensure that the country's tax revenue will not be affected."

As soon as this was said, the court was in an uproar. The ministers discussed it, some agreed that this method was feasible, while others opposed it, thinking that it was too complicated and difficult to operate. Haoyu pondered for a moment and felt that this method was quite innovative and worth a try.

"My dear, your idea does make some sense. But it may not be easy to implement. Do you have a detailed plan?" Haoyu asked.

Wei An was well prepared. He took out a bamboo scroll from his sleeve and presented it to Haoyu: "Your Majesty, this is the progressive tax system plan I drafted. It lists the tax rates and calculation methods for each level in detail for your review."

Haoyu took the bamboo slips and read them carefully. The plan was clear and well-organized, with precise calculations, which fully demonstrated Wei An's profound political foundation and rigorous attitude. The more he read, the more satisfied he was, and he kept nodding in praise.

"Good! Good! My dear, this idea of ​​yours is indeed a good policy that benefits both the country and the people. I will immediately issue an edict, ordering the Ministry of Revenue to pilot the tax reform according to this plan." Haoyu announced loudly, his voice full of firmness and determination.

Upon hearing this, all the officials looked at Wei An with admiration. They knew that if this tax reform could succeed, it would have a far-reaching impact on the country, and Wei An's name would go down in history.

After the tax reform was decided, Wei An did not slack off. She knew that the road to reform was thorny and that she needed to proceed step by step to ensure success. Therefore, she personally supervised the implementation of the tax reform plan, had in-depth discussions with officials from the Ministry of Revenue, and continuously improved the details of the plan.

A few months later, the progressive tax system was fully implemented in Yunhan Country. The people were pleasantly surprised to find that their tax burden was significantly reduced, and the state's fiscal revenue did not decrease but increased. This change quickly spread throughout the country and caused a great sensation.

The court and the public praised Wei An for her great contribution to the country. However, Wei An did not get complacent because she knew that she was able to succeed because of the support of Haoyu and the cooperation of the ministers.
