Chapter Seventy-Five: The Empress Dowager
Zhao Feng entered the impression space through the APP.
When I arrived, there was a hazy scene around me, but after I didn't take two steps, the scenery in front of me suddenly opened up.
A huge city stood before his eyes.
I saw neat rows of guards standing at the gate of the city, constantly checking the merchants coming and going.
The merchants were dressed differently, they all came from the other side of the space, and they didn't know which dynasty they came from.
took out the customs clearance document issued by his own monarch and entered Chang'an City safely.
Zhao Feng had never seen such a magical thing, and remembered that Liu Bang had said that the monarch had the right to make courtier tokens to facilitate the exchange of merchants and guests.
Merchants can go to the specially set up merchant yamen to go through the formalities.
With formal formalities and free travel through other spaces, some spaces have formed a business industry chain.
It provided a large number of economic benefits to the monarch and at the same time increased tax revenue.
The relics used for rent collection are derived from taxes.
Scholars, farmers, industrialists, and merchants could all generate taxes, which automatically went into the monarch's treasury and became relics.
That's why, although these spaces are self-contained, they can also pay enough rent.
Zhao Feng walked towards the gate of the city, and was stopped by the guards as soon as he reached the gate.
"What the hell! Go into the city and line up at the back!"
The guard pushed Zhao Feng rudely, Zhao Feng frowned slightly and didn't say anything, and took out the token of his rent collector.
"I have come to collect rent, to see your monarch. ”
Zhao Feng revealed his identity, thinking that the guards would let him in immediately.
The guards just glanced at his token and shouted.
"Where did the thief dare to pretend to be a rent collector, and someone came to take it for me!"
The situation changed suddenly, and Zhao Feng didn't know where he had offended these guards.
I saw that with the sound of the guards, all the surrounding merchants scattered and fled, and countless guards with guns surrounded Zhao Feng.
At this moment, a general with thick eyebrows and big eyes in silver armor walked over.
Looking at Zhao Feng's poor sourness, he snorted coldly and said.
"Hmph! Bold thieves, dare to pretend to be rent collectors, and don't surrender quickly!"
Listening to the general's roar, Zhao Feng stood coldly in the middle.
Is it true that these people have no temper when they pretend on the left and surrender on the right?
Zhao Feng didn't talk nonsense, raised the token in his hand high, and aimed at Chang'an City in front of him.
I saw that the token was flashing with golden brilliance, and it enveloped the entire Chang'an City in an instant.
There was a huge tremor in Chang'an City, and the entire city was slowly breaking away from the ground.
The general was taken aback when he saw this situation, and immediately yelled at Zhao Feng.
"Big thief, stop!"
"Huh?"
Zhao Feng's expression was indifferent, and he continued to urge the token, the rent collector was the administrator of the impression world.
Even if the monarch sees it, he has to be polite, these few nameless soldiers dare to shout at themselves, is my token really an ornament?
As the light of the token became stronger and stronger, the constantly floating Chang'an City was rapidly shrinking.
Although Chang'an City is very large, it is only a drop in the bucket in the face of the rent collection token that has the power to defy the sky.
Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse, the general knew that he had completely offended Zhao Feng, so he immediately lowered his head and apologized.
"That's enough, please stop the rent collector, I was rude just now. ”
The general finally recognized Zhao Feng's identity, and the surrounding soldiers also put away their spears and knelt down towards Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng waved the token, and Chang'an City finally stopped shrinking, and slowly changed back to its original size and returned to the position just now.
"Take me to your monarch. ”
Zhao Feng's words made the general sweat, and immediately got out of the way and personally led him to the palace.
With the previous farce, Zhao Feng's road to the palace was unimpeded, and no one stepped forward to interrogate his identity.
When they came to the main hall of the palace, there were many courtiers there at this time.
When they saw Zhao Feng coming in, they all chose to avoid it, and no one dared to come forward to talk.
After waiting for a long time, a eunuch walked directly in front of him and shouted to everyone.
"The Empress Dowager has arrived!"
"Chitose Chitose Chitose!"
As the courtiers called out for a thousand years old, a graceful and luxurious lady outside the main hall walked into the main hall step by step with slow steps.
Zhao Feng wondered in his heart, weren't all monarchs in the previous dynasty, why did even the empress dowager come out?
As the Empress Dowager got closer and closer, Zhao Feng found himself in front of her.
Seeing this situation, the little eunuch next to him went up and kicked Zhao Feng's knee and made him kneel.
Zhao Feng was suddenly furious, and a minion dared to kick me.
He picked up a kick and kicked the eunuch in the ass.
This scene completely fell into the eyes of the Empress Dowager, and she was silent, and the anger in her eyes continued to accumulate as if she was about to explode at any time.
"Is Aiqing the rent collector of this session? Why is it so rude, shouldn't you kneel when you see this palace?"
Kneel?
As a modern person, Zhao Feng is very resistant to kneeling.
Especially when I collected rent before, I didn't kneel down when I saw Qin Shi Huang, why did you, the queen mother, let me kneel?
"I'm just here to collect the rent, I'll leave after taking the rent, it doesn't matter if I kneel or not. ”
Zhao Feng thought that this task was too simple, thinking that he could leave when he saw the monarch take the rent.
But he didn't notice that the courtiers in the court at this time looked at him as if they were looking at fools.
The Empress Dowager is here, and a foreign minister dares to commit murder in the court without kneeling down or saluting, and the minister implores the Empress Dowager to put this thief in prison and interrogate him. ”
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister also seconded it!"
……
The courtiers expressed their loyalty one by one, and the Empress Dowager nodded with satisfaction.
But he ignored Zhao Feng and walked to the center of the main hall to sit on the dragon chair.
"Someone will put him in prison!"
With the Empress Dowager's order, Jin Wuwei on both sides walked towards Zhao Feng with spears.
Looking at the posture, as long as Zhao Feng dared to resist, he would be stabbed to death on the spot.
Zhao Feng is also a person who is used to seeing big scenes, but he has never seen such a routine.
didn't mention anything about the rent, and when he came up, he wanted to arrest him.
This empress dowager is too unreasonable.
As Jin Wuwei gradually approached, Zhao Feng didn't intend to endure it, and took out the token and showed it in front of everyone.
As the golden light of the token continued to flicker, the entire Chang'an City shook violently again.
"You dare!"
The Empress Dowager seemed to know what Zhao Feng wanted to do, and her eyes widened and glared at him.
But Zhao Feng ignored it at all, and continued to urge the token, preparing to collect the entire Chang'an City.
"If you don't pay rent, you will take the city, this is my rule, whether you are the queen mother or whatever, you must pay the rent obediently. ”
