As soon as the tax law came out, it also affected the interests of many people, and Kong Gongjian, the prince of Yansheng, was the first to come to complain. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

At this time, Yan Shenggong had long since lost the style of Confucius, and was already a big landowner and a big businessman. This means that industry and commerce cannot be farmed, and Shi farmers are not allowed to do business, both of which were committed by Kong Gongjian's family.

After Ji Yang became Emperor Shengwu, Yan Shenggong helped to say a lot of good things and justified Ji Yang's name. Kong Gongjian said that I have no merit and hard work, if I didn't help the emperor correct his name, how could he pass the level of a scholar in the world so easily.

So Kong Gongjian came to Ji Yang, hoping that he could make an exception and let the Kong family go.

Ji Yang comforted him and said, "Yan Shenggong, I don't know how many people are staring at your family, if you make an exception, there will be no need to implement the tax sharing law in the future." ”

Because of the lack of information, most of the people did not know about the dirty deeds of the Kong family, but the people at the top of the pyramid knew very well. These people are watching how Yan Shenggong copes with the innovation, if Yan Shenggong cooperates, most people will cooperate, if Yan Shenggong flips the table, those people will definitely follow the table.

There is no way, Confucius's influence in the Central Plains is too strong, and the strength is outrageous.

However, this does not mean that Ji Yang must give him face, just like when the Qing Dynasty ruled the Central Plains in later generations, when he shaved his hair and changed clothes, Yan Shenggong also went to ask the Qing Dynasty emperor to make an exception.

As a result, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty not only did not make an exception, but also coerced and enticed, and asked Yan Shenggong to take the lead in shaving his hair and making it easy to obey. Yan Shenggong openly shaved his hair and changed his clothes, which dealt a heavy blow to the minds of the people of the Central Plains.

The money rattail pigtail is too ugly, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty shouted the Manchu and Han families in his mouth, calling for people to shave their heads, and the emperor himself was unwilling to shave his head, so he wore a hat to cover it when he went to court.

Ji Yang, who knows history, knows very well what kind of virtue Yan Shenggong is.

"The law of the country cannot be an exception." Ji Yang said.

Yan Shenggong lowered his head when he heard this, and did not dare to intercede with Ji Yang again.

Not only did Ji Yang not make an exception for him, but also asked Yan Shenggong to split up the family with great fanfare.

The Confucian family's commerce and agriculture were separated, and when the Confucian family was recreated, some of the descendants of the Confucian family were listed as Shinong, and some were listed as industry and commerce, inheriting commerce and agriculture respectively.

Although they are still in touch after they separate, Ji Yang believes that people are selfish. With the passage of time, one day the Kong family will be far apart, because there is no concubine who does not want to stand on his own.

Originally, the eldest son of the Confucian family inherited the position of Yan Shenggong, inherited the position of the head of the family, and controlled the family's land and commercial houses. Now divided into two families, the eldest son must be jealous of Ji Yang, but the concubine must be very grateful to Ji Yang.

If Ji Yang does not promulgate a tax sharing law, how can a concubine have the opportunity to inherit half of the family property. The Confucian family is extremely large in both agriculture and commerce, with millions of acres of tuntian, and the commercial bank is developing rapidly with the support of the Xingzhu Chamber of Commerce, and now has an annual income of tens of millions of taels of silver.

Yan Shenggong must be very difficult, whether to divide heaven and earth to the concubine, or to distribute the business house to the concubine. No matter how it is divided, it can be expected that the concubine has obtained such a large amount of family property, and will never be willing to be controlled by the eldest son, the next Yan Shenggong.

"Yan Shenggong, if the tax division law is to be implemented, your Confucian family must take the lead. I am not an unsympathetic person, as long as you do what I tell me, I can use the supreme magic to prolong your life. Ji Yang said.

"Seriously!" Yan Shenggong raised his head suddenly, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.

He is already in his seventies, and he has few years to live, and he will soon pass on the throne of duke. Because of this, Kong Gongjian succumbed so easily, and he couldn't use this old life to fight Ji Yang.

As the saying goes, when I die, he will flood the world.

Yan Shenggong has recognized the reality clearly, no matter what means he uses, he will not be able to disobey the eternal emperor in front of him. In this case, simply behave better, maybe Emperor Shengwu will give him some benefits.

Sure enough, as soon as Kong Gongjian bowed his head, Ji Yang said a promise that lifted his spirits.

Some people want to die early when they get old, and some people try to live longer when they get old. Kong Gongjian belongs to the latter, and he often embezzles the resources of the Confucian family to invite masters to alchemy, in order to live for more than ten years.

There are no wonders in the world, and it is not difficult to prolong your life for ten years by practicing the elixir with heavenly materials and earth treasures. However, longevity pills can usually only be taken once, and the effect cannot be superimposed, unless a better herb is found.

It is easy to prolong life for ten years, but the elixir that prolongs life for a hundred years is priceless and marketable, and few people in the world can practice it. Obviously, Yan Shenggong doesn't have the ability to invite such a worldly master.

"Don't believe me? I'll let you live 10 years longer! Ji Yang urged the Five Qi Dynasty Yuan, injected all the Yuan Qi into Kong Gongjian's body through the air, and refined it for him.

Kong Gongjian was shrouded by Ji Yang's true yuan, and the whole person couldn't move, as if he had returned to the fetal period.

He often takes pills to maintain his spirit, and although he gets some benefits, the medicine is poisonous. Especially if you eat pills with similar effects, eating too much will have no effect at all, but will accumulate some toxins. Therefore, Kong Gongjian seems to be old and strong, but in fact, his health is not good, and he can feel that his spirit is getting weaker and weaker.

Kong Gongjian, who is in his seventies, has to take a pill of Yangshen Pill before going out every time he goes out, such as this time when he comes to Beijing to meet the emperor. After taking the Nourishing Pill, Kong Gongjian was able to maintain his spirits for a day, but as soon as the effect of the medicine passed, he immediately withered.

Ji Yang's wisp of vitality contains his essence, and this wisp of vitality is a panacea. During the refining process, Kong Gongjian showed a baby's sleepy, comfortable expression, and fell asleep.

However, soon, after this wisp of vitality was completely refined, Kong Gongjian came to his senses again. When he opened his eyes, he felt refreshed and rejuvenated, as if he had been a teenager younger.

"Look at your own changes to know if I have cheated on you." Ji Yang seemed to have done a trivial thing, losing a wisp of vitality had little effect on him, and he could cultivate back in one day.

A guard came up with a mirror in his hand and handed it to Yan Shenggong, who took it and looked at it and was immediately pleasantly surprised. Kong Gongjian is really a few years younger, the crow's feet at the corners of his eyes are much less, and his hair is a little darker.

"Thank you for the emperor's reward, from now on, you will not hesitate to go to the soup and fire!" Yan Shenggong knelt down excitedly, and at this moment he no longer had the slightest resistance to Ji Yang's policy.

"Well, go back and do a good job of separating the family, and set an example for the world." Ji Yang said.

"Gongjian understands, I will gather all the Confucian people and take the lead in dividing the family." Yan Sheng Gongxin said that if you separate the family, you can prolong your life for ten years, and you must follow this lord to do things in the future.

After Kong Gongjian returned to the Confucian Mansion in Shandong, he immediately gathered all the Confucian disciples and carried out a vigorous division of the family to commemorate. In order to cooperate with Jiyang's promotion of the tax sharing law, Kong Gongjian also specially invited the royal newspaper official to follow up and report the whole process.

Many people in the Kong family oppose the separation, but Kong Gongjian has made up his mind, and with Ji Yang's support behind him, it is useless for the people below to oppose it. The point is that there are still many people who support it, especially those concubines who are not qualified to inherit the family property.

"The division of the family must be divided, and my Confucian family is blessed by the Holy Martial Emperor, and I should be an example for the world. The question is how to divide it, whether to let the descendants change their nationality to Shinong, or let the concubines change their nationality to industry and commerce. Kong Gongjian said that although the trading house was very profitable, the old thinking made him value the land more.

"Industrial and commercial lowly nationality, the descendants naturally have to inherit the household registration of Shinong." Kong Lingran said.

The rest of the clansmen also nodded slightly, agreeing with Kong Lingran's opinion.

The idea of valuing agriculture over business is not just lip service, in this agrarian society, land is the most important thing. No matter from the perspective of interests or dignity, there is no reason for the lineage to be changed to industrial and commercial household registration, so this issue was quickly settled.

In fact, the concubines also want to inherit the land, but they are not qualified to be picky. Being able to inherit the Confucian family firm has already been picked up for them, so the division of the family memorial went smoothly.

The next day, the Royal Newspaper and the other five newspapers published the news, and the headline was the sentence that Confucius said: My Confucian family was blessed by the Holy Martial Emperor, and I should be an example for the world.

As soon as the news came out, the Central Plains once again set off a heated discussion, and the tax sharing law was also successfully implemented under the example of the Confucian family. At least those at the top of the pyramid don't dare to resist, because they care more about reputation.

On the contrary, there are people at the bottom who don't eat Yan Shenggong's set, and still secretly resist. However, this is not a problem, Jin Yiwei and the Imperial Sword Pavilion have accumulated enough experience to deal with these people in the process of implementing the previous policy.

"Dad, it's too boring to stay in the Forbidden City every day, I want to go out and play." On this day, Ji Yang was guiding Ji Hongyu to practice subtraction in the back garden, and Ji Ling suddenly ran over to complain.

Ji Yang even has only two or three concubines, so naturally he doesn't take the palace rules to heart, so the family is very free. The children can find him at any time if they want, as long as there are no more outsiders messing around.

"I'm also bored, I want to go to my mother and big brother." Ji Hongyu echoed, he regretted staying now, he knew that the palace life was so empty, it was better to follow his mother to take risks.

There is a huge palace, just a few of them live, and then they are all maids and guards.

Ji Yang thought for a while and said, "There shouldn't be many people who know you, if you want to go out to play, dress up a little and pretend to be an ordinary child." It just so happens that I want to go out for a walk, so my dad will take you to play. ”

Ji Ling and Ji Hongyu were overjoyed when they heard this, said thank you father, and ran to change their clothes.

After a while, Ji Ling came out in men's clothes and dressed up as a handsome son. Ji Hongyu is fourteen years old this year, and because of his good physique, his height has reached one meter six. He changed into a blue cloth robe, tied his hair with strips of cloth, and dressed up as a simple scholar.

Ji Yang wants to go out to play, of course he won't pull down Li Qinglu and Li Qiushui, and let them change into plain clothes and leave together. As for the affairs in the palace, Ji Yang temporarily handed over the clone to Xuanyuan, anyway, this clone thinks the same as him, and is fully qualified for the position of emperor.

"You Tanzhi, you take care of the affairs in the palace, don't let the people know that we are leaving." Ji Yang ordered You Tanzhi to stay and cover, she is now a guard in the Ouchi, and she can temporarily mobilize all the guards and palace maids.

"Do you want to find a few people to protect you?" You Tanzhi is not at ease. Ji Yang is now the emperor, if something happens outside, the entire Central Plains will be in chaos, and he will be responsible for his death.

"Who are you looking for, and who else is my opponent down there?" Ji Yang said with a smile.

"Your Majesty's miraculous skills are world-renowned, naturally no one is your opponent, but it's okay to do it." You Tanzhi said, he thought to himself that no matter how high his martial arts were, there were negligence, and there were two innate martial artists who followed him.

"No, there are a lot of people." Ji Yang said.

The family walked out of the palace through the back door, and they didn't ride horses, just wandering around the capital.

Ji Yang's family is dressed very plainly, and the clothes are made of cotton, and they are not rich. Li Qinglu and Li Qiushui were on either side of him, and Ji Ling and Ji Hongyu were in front.

The main street of the capital has been transformed into a concrete road, but the houses on both sides have not changed. Because the buildings in the downtown area are very good, there is no need to push it to rebuild.

After walking two streets, I didn't find anything special, it was a common life for ordinary people.

After all, it is at the feet of the Son of Heaven, even if there are some things that are traitors, they will not show it in broad daylight. And Ji Yang didn't want to pursue those things, because the story behind it had already been presented by Jin Yiwei, and he had read it several times.

Ji Yang doesn't need to catch a dog official to brush up his reputation, and he is not in the mood for this. Some things are better left to the following, when the emperor has nothing to do, he runs out to catch corrupt officials, and he is not tired to death.

As for the oppression of the common people by the wealthy, it is almost inevitable in feudal society. If you encounter it, you don't care, if you don't meet Ji Yang, you won't go out of your way to find trouble, it's better to think about how to innovate if you have this spare time.

"Dad, people say that there is heaven above and Suzhou and Hangzhou below, how about we go to Suzhou and Hangzhou." Ji Ling is not very interested in the capital, she likes to go to places she has never been.

"It's a long way to Suzhou, and it takes us ten days and a half to ride a horse." Ji Yang said.

"What are you afraid of, didn't you leave a stand-in in the palace. Then again, where did you find that stand-in, it looks exactly like you. Ji Ling said curiously.

"Xianggong, I think it's better not to leave for too long, so as not to harbor misdeeds for your body and mind." Li Qinglu said that she was afraid that the stand-in would take advantage of Ji Yang's absence to fight for the throne.

"Don't worry, the primordial spirit in that stand-in is part of my primordial spirit, and it's actually me. Do you think I'm going to betray myself? Ji Yang said with a smile.

"What martial arts can separate the primordial spirits?" Li Qiushui said curiously. Since Ji Yang used Qilin blood to help her refine her body, her lifespan has been extended by about five hundred years, and the whole person is much younger, looking only in her twenties.

"It is a kind of martial art that specializes in cultivating the Yuan Shen, called Dayan Gong." Ji Yang said.

"Is it still you that the original gods are separated? Will he become self-aware. Li Qiushui asked.

"Yes, so every once in a while I get rid of his sense of self and he can't grow up. After the separation of the primordial spirit, there is still a connection in the underworld, and I can eliminate some of the consciousness in his primordial spirit with just one thought. Ji Yang said.

"Interesting, whose body is it, I look at the martial arts?" Li Qiushuidao.

"That body was found by me in the land guarded by the Fire Qilin, and it was originally a skeleton that I reborn with a special secret method. This skeleton must have been a master in front of him, so after the white bone was reborn, his skill was deeper than mine. However, after refining that person's true element, I have now surpassed him. Ji Yang said.

The person he said was the big master, Xiao Aoshi's skill was stronger than that of the boxing god, after Ji Yang refined all his true yuan and Xuanwu bloodline, not only did his lifespan exceed a thousand years, but his skill also increased a lot.

Ji Yang's family chatted and walked, hired a carriage at the post station, and went to Suzhou.
