Yes?

Standing there with his mouth wide open and blinking his eyes, Jia Yu was speechless. If someone else were replaced, maybe they would complain that he was already full of chrysanthemums and was still selling cute, but in fact, Liang Zheng only had full sympathy for Jia Yu, but he didn't look down on him at all.

As the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, Liang Zheng knows the meaning of this will better than anyone else. The power of heaven is unpredictable, and the royal family used the blood of half of the courtiers and their families to show the world what royal majesty is. That touch of blood is a heavy stroke in the history books, and it is also a knife hanging on the heads of the courtiers all the time, warning the courtiers of what the Son of Heaven is angry and floating for thousands of miles, and also telling the courtiers what to do and what not to touch. Maybe someone like the Jia family, who has been marginalized and may fall behind from the ranks of the eunuchs at any time, will think that this sword is far away from them, but which one is not afraid of officials like Liang Zheng who can really reach the core of power?

The less you know, the more bold you are, and those who know more are always walking on thin ice.

That's the reality.

The problem is that occasionally there are people who know the law and break the law even if they know the law by heart, and there are even more people who play the side game, and even those who dare to calculate the emperor are not one or two. But even the most frustrated madman is also pious when facing the gods and Buddhas. Buddhism is like this, and so is Taoism, Buddhism has only a history of more than 1,000 years, and it has been rumored to be notorious several times, and even starved the emperor to death, so that the later dynasties are very protective of him. And the Taoist gate, because it has always been freewheeling, is much better than the reputation of Buddhism.

Door. A behemoth with a history of at least 2,000 years, the human, financial, powerful, and popular will of the people should not be underestimated. Even Liang Zheng himself admitted that no one in the entire court could say how strong the Daomen was. Liang Zheng brought this will. In fact, the Jia family was roasted on the fire between the royal family and the Daomen.

Jia Jiu, who was standing behind the door, saw that there was no movement inside for a long time, and he was secretly anxious, but he didn't dare to lean out. Let the father and the guests find themselves eavesdropping, if it is a trivial matter, it is just a trivial matter, when it comes to such a big thing, then one is not careful, it will be a catastrophe. Unlike other crossing girls, Jia Jiu is a little similar to the original Jia Yingchun's personality. He never thought he was great, nor did he think that he was more noble than others because of his experience in two lifetimes. He had always believed that he was just an ordinary child, without his father's protection. He couldn't do anything.

Therefore, no matter what, he has to find a way to let Jia Yu pass this hurdle smoothly.

Seeing the girl in charge of delivering the tea coming, he grabbed it as soon as possible, then took a deep breath, and then walked into the study. In the study, Liang Zheng was trying to find a way to wake up Jia Yu, when he saw Jia Jiu coming in with tea, and hurriedly withdrew his hand that patted Jia Yu on the shoulder.

"The daughter has seen her father."

Jia Jiu's crisp voice recalled Jia Yu, Jia Yu ignored the tray in his daughter's hand, hugged his daughter and said, "The ancestor is right. The Wang family is looking for their own death, and it will drag down our family. Unexpectedly, we couldn't escape this hurdle after all. Girl, you go to Zixia Temple now. Take your brother and go right away. We can escape one by one. ”

The teapot and cups on the tray had long since rolled to the ground. If Jia Jiu hadn't reacted fast enough, he was afraid that the father and daughter would have been burned by Yan Zhan.

Jia Jiu gently patted Jia Yu's arm—his hand was not long enough to reach Jia Yu's back—and said, "Father." Maybe it's not that hard, please calm down. Hooray just let us lobby. But he didn't say that he had to succeed. ”

Only then did Jia Yu calm down.

Jia Jiu straightened his clothes slightly, and then saluted Liang Zheng: "I've seen my cousin." ”

Liang Zheng said: "Cousin is polite. How. Didn't my cousin apply medicine when she came back that day? Your face is full of pus. ”

Jia Jiu smiled bitterly: "It seems that I can't hide this idea from the palace." My mother was lying in the house, and I was a little girl, so I vaguely felt that the big sister's attitude towards Sister Bao was a little wrong, and I couldn't react in time. I thought that I would be able to take care of the mistake of negligence without applying medicine, but I forgot about it, and this kind of thinking is the most important. ”

Liang Zheng also sighed when he heard this.

As the Shaoqing of Dali Temple, as the real leader of Dali Temple, Liang Zheng knows better than anyone what is called one crime and no two punishments. The people who calculated the emperor were not Jia Yu and Jia Jiu, and Jia Yuanchun, who fought a field war with the emperor in the end, was not from Jia Yu's side, at most she was only the granddaughter of Jia's mother, because of Jia's mother's face, she was just a guest here in Jia Yu.

Because Jia Yu had already come out of the sect, the emperor was not good at punishing him, so he asked Liang Zheng to bring such a will. One is to scare Jia Yu, and the other is to probe the bottom.

Silver foil stickers. The Jia family obviously didn't have the qualifications to get the post, who would have thought that this year, there would be two shots! The emperor knew better than anyone how rare this apricot yellow flower sticker was, and even his cousins could not get it. As for the distance between the Jia family and celebrities, it is a distance that I can't dream of.

The Emperor wondered how much power the silver slip was.

Liang Zheng can't open his mouth even if he guesses these things, if he really leaks his mouth, then the next unlucky person may be their Liang family.

Of course, the Jia family's money is really attractive, that is, the servants in the family copy it casually for three or four million taels of silver, not to mention others, even the emperor is very interested in the property of the Jia family, not to mention that there are still a group of people who hate the rich in this world, including some officials, a considerable number of people are waiting for "the Jia family falls, and the court is full".

Liang Zheng could guess the thing, but Jia Yu and Jia Jiu couldn't guess, at least Jia Jiu really thought about this matter as a very important task.

He asked, "Cousin, my little sister has the courage to ask my cousin." The little sister is a boudoir woman, and she doesn't know what is going on outside, and she knows six tricks about taxation. Dare to ask my cousin, how many kinds of taxes do ordinary people need to pay in my dynasty, each geometry? How many taxes were actually paid, and each geometry was paid? ”

Liang Zheng's eyes widened and said, "Little cousin, do you know what you're talking about?" ”

Jia Jiu smiled: "Although the details are not clear, but when I was in the palace at the beginning of the year, I already knew that the imperial court was short of money. I heard that the money for disaster relief was still borrowed from a patchwork of money. On the one hand, there is a bad account book, on the other hand, there are taxes that cannot be collected at all, and the court has to post money below, and then see the rich and generous appearance of the Daomen and Buddhism, I am afraid that even if the emperor can sit still, he will not be able to sit still today. Fortunately, if the court is forced to be in a hurry, I am afraid that it will be the court and the Taoist sect-for-tat, then it is time to pick up the cheap, but it is not the country, nor can it be a family and a high-ranking family, but a foreign domain. As the people of Daqi, the country is in trouble, how much better can we be. ”

Liang Zheng listened and said, "Did you just see it from the money for disaster relief?" ”

Jia Jiu said: "I don't know anything else, I only know that no matter how much silver there is in the library, there will be a day when there is no income." If nothing else, let's just say that this year is good, I heard that this year's disaster is particularly severe. During the spring planting, I heard that there was a drought in various places, and in May and June, there was a major flood, and I heard that there was a storm in the south, so I felt that there was no good place. In the event of a disaster, the imperial court will reduce or reduce taxes, and will also take out silver money to make up for the following. It's fine for a year or two, but what if it's like this every year? If the imperial court really intends to take money and food out of the Daomen and Buddhism, I am afraid that the people below will change their ways to show their ability. In this way, I am afraid that there will be more from this matter. Therefore, since you have to do it, first, the action should not be too big, and second, you can't smash the Yellow Dragon directly, you must take your time from the corners and corners little by little. ”

Liang Zheng looked at Jia Jiu and said, "In previous years, I only heard that the wives and grandmothers in the house were capable, but now it seems that what I said is true." Go on, how do you think you should start. ”

Jia Jiu said: "My cousin asked me like this, but it was difficult for me. Xiaomei really doesn't even know what types of taxes are paid in the imperial court, and when she grows so big, she has heard of a poll tax and a field tax. It's just the detailed details, and I don't know about it. What the little sister means is, can you ask your cousin for a few kind words, so that the little sister can understand the relevant laws and then ask her cousin for advice? ”

Liang Zheng looked at Jia Jiu and said, "It's a little interesting to hear my cousin say this." Even I was a little moved. Little cousin, aren't you afraid that I will rob you of your credit? ”

Jia Jiu smiled: "Since my cousin said so, naturally he wouldn't do such a thing." The little sister is shallow, and she can only use the examples around her as an analogy. The court is like my father, although he occupies orthodoxy, the Daomen is on the side of the second uncle, although he has no name, he holds the actual power of the family. As a result, the old lady originally wanted her father and uncle to work together, but under the instigation of well-intentioned people, the two families were only peaceful on the surface, and in fact, they both wanted you to eat me and I ate you. It's just that this idea of our family still has the court and the adults outside to uphold justice, but who will uphold justice between the court and the Taoist gate? If one is not careful, both sides will lose, and the foreign feudal clan may take advantage of the situation. ”

Liang Zheng was taken aback. He thought that as long as the imperial court surrendered to Daomen, everything would go smoothly in the future, but he forgot that Daomen was not a vegetarian in the first place. If it's not big, it's okay, but if it gets bigger, it's likely to damage the foundation.

Thinking about it like this, Liang Zheng couldn't sit still. He got up and said, "Uncle, this matter is very important, and my nephew wants to go to the palace first." The nephew took the lead and took his leave. ”
