? Sima Cuo and the others originally aimed their ideas at Wei Ran, but they overestimated Mi Bazi's ambition and underestimated Wei Ran's acumen.After meeting her sister, Wei Ran immediately understood their plan.Wei Ran almost obeyed Mi Yue, but Sima Cuo's idea fell through.

They were full of confidence, thinking that they could seize the opportunity, but they didn't want to, but they lost before exhausting their moves.After Miyue asked to bring son Ji into Yan, Wei Meiren first asked for an order, and after son Huan worshiped, she went to the fief with her parents and children.Although Mrs. Tang's parents and children have passed away, she also invited her out of the palace to choose a good place to clean up.As for the rest of the newcomers, there were not many opportunities to accompany them, so none of them had any heirs.A few bright-eyed people thought that the rest of their lives should be happier, and they each asked for a decree, wanting to find a place for self-cultivation.These people have all been treated favorably by Mi Shu, and they have all been raised in salary.Like Mrs. Tang, she also pointed out a special imperial physician to accompany her and take good care of her body. Suddenly, most of the harem, which was turbulent in the past, disappeared.

Xiao Wei walked with Mi Shu in white clothes, looked at the much deserted garden and said with emotion: "In the past, I always disliked the noise here, and I don't know whether to visit the garden to see flowers or people. Looking at it now, I feel that people walking alone cannot avoid sadness. Flowers are solitary and no one appreciates them, and no matter how prosperous they are, they still feel bleak to the eye."

Mi Shu said with a smile: "If the sky is high and the clouds are wide, even if it is left alone on the top of a cliff, the feeling of depression will disappear, and the nobleness and tenacity will be fully displayed."

Xiao Wei pondered for a moment, then smiled suddenly: "I am just a grass in the sand. The wind blows too much and it grows rough. It is difficult to bloom any flowers in this life."

"You don't have to be so pessimistic. Think about the more than ten years you have been outside the womb, and you have experienced the pain of being reborn. The new life has already begun. Thinking about it now, I feel sorry for you. You shouldn't let a mother leave her child."

"Your heart is much softer than before." Little Wei said indifferently: "Although I was forced to give up a lot, I got more. If it wasn't for alleviating the sadness of missing my son, I wouldn't have picked up the abacus and a writing brush. If I hadn’t picked up an abacus and a writing brush, I would have stayed in wearing the most expensive clothes and eating the finest rice. How can I know how hard life is, and how can I get the joy of helping others. Now that the volunteer school is built, a hundred years later I will also be included in the history books. I enjoy the admiration of the students and the common people when I am alive, and I will have the glory that others can't match when I die. I have nothing more to ask for."

Mi Shu smiled and stopped talking, and the two walked together in the garden for a long time.There are not many such leisurely moments, and even fewer when the mind can be equally tranquil, and any more moments are supreme enjoyment.

However, the road has an end.

Xiao Wei curtsied with the most standard demeanor: "Sister Shu, I hope I can call you that too. I thank you for forcing me to come into contact with the most real life in the world. You taught me, no one has ever taught me before. If it weren't for It's you, I can only be a bird with bright feathers in a cage, and I can't eat or fly. Even if I am lucky enough to understand the meaning of life, it will only increase my sorrow. I just said that people walk alone Walking alone is bound to be sad. But I know that there are you and eight sons on this road now, and there will be more people and more women in the future. I don’t have those profound ideas, but I hope that in my lifetime, Yixue can be opened all over Daqin everywhere."

"People value aspirations, and aspirations make things come true." Mi Shuxu raised her hands to help her up: "The meaning of righteousness is far more than that. What you do is the most important foundation for everything I want to do. You know that I have I intend to change the local monopoly of clans and surnames in various places, share the land with the people, and gather wealth for the country. If Yixue can successfully set up student land and Yanglian land, it will be of great help to the implementation of the new tax system in the future. What you do is not just in the The history books left a few strokes and a few figures."

Little Wei's eyes became clear and bright.When the mood calmed down, Xiao Wei suddenly blinked playfully: "Come again to trick me into working for you for nothing! My sister, just leave it to me. You just need to do what you want."

For the word reform, "reform" is the purpose, and "revolution" is the means.

The sons were about to gear up, but they were caught off guard by their own mothers; the officials were about to accumulate an offensive to seize the power of regent, but they were stunned by Mi Shu's snowflake-like new decree.

It is a trivial matter to spread free schools everywhere, or to rectify the pricing standards of merchants, or even to relocate them.The only way to help Xue Tian Yang Lian Tian to collect taxes is to point the sword at the clan and directly face the fundamental interests of the old and new nobles. Once it is proposed, it will cause an uproar in the court.

Those ministers are not easy people to be able to thrive in the upper echelon.It seems reasonable to collect taxes from the student farms and the Liantian farms, but once the momentum starts, they will be "unified" sooner or later.

All the fields for aiding students and raising money are owned by Yixue, and Yixue is directly under the state, not under the ministries.The aid field is used to increase income for free schools, and the money is only used to repair the library, buy pens and ink, and build more school buildings.And Yang Liantian is the free school to reward those students who have studied in the free school and gradually grown up.

This is the way of the world, all countries are exempt from taxation on the property under the names of the students who have achieved fame.After poor students leave office, it is normal for local wealthy families to put their property in the students’ names for tax exemption.This is also one of the reasons why the aristocratic clan's land annexation has become increasingly serious.Yangliantian is specially set up for this situation.

Students from poor families who have no money to buy books enter Yixue to study, and their names and addresses are registered.For those who have completed their studies and become an official, the school will donate a piece of medium-sized land as a low-income farm. In addition, students are not allowed to accept any form of property transfer.Because it is free to raise land, the state is not tax-free, but it is half cheaper than the normal tax.

It seems that the state will give you land for free to support your family, and taxation should be taken for granted, but in fact, once this move is gradually promoted, the assets under the name of the students who accept the students who raise the land will continue to be taxed after they become officials, and the common people will pay taxes on the "scholar's land". It will slowly form a pattern.At that time, the country can adjust the ratio of civilians and nobles to obtain scholars. Civilian officials have recorded their assets in the volunteer school in the past. Once the country conducts random inspections, the bribes they received will inevitably be exposed, which will reduce the possibility of accepting bribes in the future to a certain extent.

The sage said, don't worry about scarcity but inequality.When some officials have to pay taxes while others do not have to pay taxes, the two are bound to form conflicts.At that time, whether everyone pays taxes or everyone pays taxes depends on whether the country's attitude is strong enough and whether the timing is appropriate.

However, no matter whether it is successful or not, Yixue has always opened a way for the country to implement comprehensive taxation.Even if it fails this time, it will create better conditions for the future.

Mi Shu herself had the confidence to make it through this road, but those noble officials sensed danger.For a while, the memorials of opposition were endless like a blizzard, and fierce debates about this matter were launched at every court meeting.

However, Yang Liantian is reasonable after all. The students who have not yet completed their studies and are struggling in poverty account for more than half of all students. There are also many reasonable students who believe that free books for poor scholars are to spread enlightenment, so they vigorously support.Raising Liantian just means that they may be more restrained in the future, but if they don't learn righteousness, most of them will almost lose the chance of becoming an official in the future!Mi Shu cunningly used the method of participation by the whole people, and spread the matter around, gaining the advantage of public opinion.As for the old ministers and power ministers such as Lizi who are dedicated to the country, because this move is of great benefit to the country, they have to stop their efforts and stop holding on to the regent, giving Mi Shu a chance to accumulate strength.

Public opinion gradually tilted towards Mi Shu, and the old and new aristocrats also erupted an unprecedented backlash.Just when the debate reached a fever pitch, Queen Hui, who seemed to only know how to reason, suddenly showed her fangs and bit off several middle-level officials.A group of seven mid-level officials from various factions were searched and punished in the middle of the night.

The most astonishing thing is that the ones who did it turned out to be Sima Cuo, who had always opposed Mi Shu's regency, and other veteran officials for many years!If it was Mi Shu's faction who made the move, everyone could use the interface of public aid and private interests to criticize Mi Shu in turn, but the people who did it were 'our own people', the same old nobles, it seems that when they were at their most powerful, Suddenly he was pulled from the bottom of the pot!

Reform, how can it be enough to just 'reform' but not 'reform'?Reform is bloody!

The aristocratic forces were caught off guard, and their momentum gradually declined.In the end, the seven-month political struggle ended with Hui Hou's overall victory. ?
