For a while, Zhao Dongting couldn't stop secretly being surprised in his heart, this trip was really not in vain.

Then he asked, "What do you think the senior should do with this matter?" ”

At this time, Hong Wutian washed the fruit and came in, quietly put it next to him, took an apple and stuffed it into his mouth, and did not speak.

Xiang Dongyang spread out the tax reduction and exemption regulations in his hand again, and said slowly: "The old decay view of these regulations is for the sake of the people and for the benefit of the people. It's just that no matter the nobles, the gentry, the military families, and the common people, they all treat them equally, which is a bit inappropriate. The people can share the land, it is already a great grace of the emperor, and the exemption of farmland tax for another two years is nothing more than the icing on the cake after sending charcoal in the snow, and it will also cause great pressure on the finances of the imperial court. The rest of the tax reduction and exemption policies are also similar, and although they are beneficial to the people, they cannot fundamentally solve the problem that the system of dividing land is difficult to implement. ”

Zhao Dongting personally handed a pear to Xiang Dongyang's hand and listened carefully.

Xiang Dongyang took the pear, glanced at Zhao Dongting deeply, and continued: "If it is according to the old man's thoughts, it is better to treat this tax reduction and exemption policy differently." For ordinary people, after dividing the land according to people, the court can give them some silver money to buy seeds, and there is no need to be exempt from taxes. Military dependents, gentry, and nobles can reduce taxes and taxes respectively, and even the imperial court will pay them some compensation for good land. In this way, they can still distinguish themselves from ordinary people, and the damage to their interests can also be minimized, and after the court distributes the land, the silver taels that are compensated to them can not only make up for the taxes obtained from the people, but also greatly surplus, so that the finances of the court will not have any burden. ”

Zhao Dongting nodded, happy to come, and said: "Moreover, the tax reduction for military families can also improve the enthusiasm of the people to join the army." ”

Xiang Dongyang looked at Zhao Dongting with appreciation, "The emperor is really talented. ”

Zhao Dongting was happy, "I will discuss this matter with the military commander after the morning of tomorrow morning." The words of the predecessors are really like an enlightenment! ”

Saying that, he said deeply: "My Great Song Dynasty is in danger, can I ask my predecessors to come out of the mountain to help?" ”

Staying at home, but being able to have this kind of insight, if Zhao Dongting can't think of Xiang Dongyang's ability anymore, he will be a fool.

Such meritocracy naturally cannot be let go.

Xiang Dongyang didn't hold the shelf anymore, knelt on the ground again, and said, "Old man, thank the emperor Longen." ”

He was full of wealth, and deliberately played chess with Hong Wutian in this house every night, so he didn't have the idea of observing the court and attracting the attention of the court?

Hong Wutian bit the apple in his mouth, and was happy to see his old friend find a good master.

Li Yuanxiu was also overjoyed at this time.

Zhao Dongting helped Xiang Dongyang up again, and said happily: "Then I will come tomorrow to pick up my predecessors and go to the early dynasty." ”

Xiang Dongyang was even more grateful, "The old man is waiting at home." ”

It's not that he is manipulating, but if he dares to go to the early dynasty, the ministers of the court and the central government are afraid that they will not think highly of him.

Zhao Dongting personally came to invite him, naturally it was different, and those ministers naturally had to weigh what ability he had to make the emperor think so highly of him?

will not ignore his words and deeds too much.

After saying that, Zhao Dongting didn't plan to stay any longer, so he took Li Yuanxiu to say goodbye and leave.

When he arrived at the door, Hong Wutian suddenly said: "By the way, the old man also has a gift that he wants to give to the emperor." ”

He bit the apple in his mouth, took out a crumpled piece of paper from his sleeve, and handed it to Zhao Dongting.

The paper wasn't very clean, and there were a lot of grease stains on it, as if there was some snot.

Rao is Zhao Dongting, and he couldn't help but be slightly stunned, and then took the paper. Spread it out, his face changed slightly.

Then he put the paper in his sleeve and said to Hong Wutian, "Thank you senior." ”

After saying that, he hurriedly took Li Yuanxiu to the Zhizhou Mansion.

Li Yuanxiu was puzzled: "Your Majesty, why are you so anxious?" ”

Zhao Dongting handed the note in his sleeve to Li Yuanxiu, and said happily: "Hurry up and gather the army and horses, let the catcher lead the way, and follow me to Liucun outside the city to capture Sha Wanli." ”

Li Yuanxiu pinched the note, opened it with endurance, and his eyes widened suddenly.

The note read, "Sha Wanli is hidden in the Liucun Mountain Temple, and he is the only one." ”

"The old slave will do it."

After the surprise, Li Yuanxiu pinched the note and ran to the yamen of the guards on the side of the Zhizhou Mansion.

After waiting for a while, Yue Peng took Jiang Cunzhong, the official minister of the guard Ma Army, and Zhang Hongwei, the commander of the Left Wing Army, and carried hundreds of soldiers to gallop outside the Zhizhou Mansion.

After a while, Li Yuanxiu arrived with Cheng Xiyi of Haikang County and more than ten catchers.

Zhao Dongting sat on Li Yuanxiu's horse and led the army to Liucun at a rapid pace.

There is a stream outside the village, which is named after the willow trees next to the stream. The mountain temple is somewhere in the middle of nowhere.

The catchers brought by Xiyi were all old catchers in Haikang County, and they were clear of the local areas of Haikang County, and led the army to kill directly to the mountain temple.

Hundreds of horse troops, galloping naturally the sound of horses' hooves. Even if the soldiers did not shout, the movement was quite large.

As soon as he arrived outside the mountain temple, a person inside jumped out, and the eight-ring knife on his shoulder flickered brightly in the moonlight. It's Shawanli.

Seeing the neatly looked Ma Jun with hundreds of troops, his face suddenly changed.

When the enemies saw each other, they were very red-eyed. Zhao Dongting didn't say anything, and shouted directly: "Shoot!" ”

More than 200 archers of the left wing army of the Dragon Guard drew their bows and arrows and shot towards Shawanli. Among them, Zhang Hongwei's arrow is the fastest and the fastest.

His archery skills are extraordinary, and he has cultivated internal skills since he was a child, and his strength is infinite, so he is really a rare archer.

"Dog Emperor!"

Sha Wanli shouted, waved his knife and swept away a few arrows, knowing that he was invincible, he hurriedly retreated towards the mountain temple.

Even though his kung fu is very good, it is tantamount to a fool's dream to resist the hundreds of guards and soldiers who are waiting for him.

Of course, it was not so easy for the guards to destroy him.

As soon as he ran into the mountain temple, hundreds of horse troops galloped out and surrounded the mountain temple.

Zhao Dongting shouted: "Sha Wanli, you have nowhere to escape, hurry up and arrest you!" ”

Inside, Sha Wanli scolded: "Let go of your mother's fart, Lao Tzu will be caught, and you will be able to let Lao Tzu go?" ”

Zhao Dongting said: "It's impossible to let you go, but if you tell who instructed you to assassinate the Queen Mother, I can leave you a whole corpse." ”

The door of the mountain temple suddenly opened.

The guards were surprised, but Shawanli did not come out to surrender.

In his hand, he was holding an elderly beggar in rags, squinting his eyes and saying viciously: "Dog Emperor, if you dare to shoot Lao Tzu with an arrow again, Lao Tzu will let him bury Lao Tzu!" There are six more in it, try it if you don't believe it! ”

Zhao Dongting was stunned, he didn't expect that the ancients would also take hostages.

Although the person who was held hostage was just a beggar, it was a living life after all.

His hands were half-raised in the air, unable to put them down. These beggars are innocent.

Seeing this, Sha Wanli laughed wildly, "Haha, Dog Emperor, quickly tell the army to give way, give Lao Tzu a fast horse, and let Lao Tzu leave." ”

Zhao Dongting scolded his mother in his heart, "Your uncle, why don't you let Lao Tzu give you a plane?" ”

But he had no choice, and after several hesitations, he finally said coldly: "Give way, give him a horse, let him go." ”

Next to him, Li Yuanxiu hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, just let him go?" ”

finally caught Sha Wanli, and he was really unwilling in his heart.

Zhao Dongting's face was not good-looking, and he said: "The beggars are also my people, and besides, father-in-law, have you forgotten who gave me this letter?" ”

The letter was given by Hong Wutian, who was the beggar emperor and the leader of the beggar gang. With this relationship, Zhao Dongting is even more difficult to implicate the beggars in these temples for this matter.

"Alas......"

Li Yuanxiu sighed heavily.

Yue Peng waved his hand, and the guards all moved to both sides.

A horse soldier jumped off his horse and slapped his horse's ass with indignation. And the horse ran toward Shawanli.

Shawan laughed, and when the horse came near, he was about to take the old beggar on the horse.

But at this moment, the old beggar who was pressed by his neck with the eight-ring knife suddenly slid to the side like a loach.

His speed was extremely fast, his body twisted, and as soon as he broke away from the eight-ring knife, he turned around and slapped Sha Wanli's waist and abdomen with a palm.

How could Sha Wanli be so skilled as this old beggar?

He was defenseless at all, and was slapped on the waist and abdomen by the old beggar with a palm, and snorted in pain.

But he also calculated it, did not entangle, jumped to the horse with the strength of this palm, slapped the horse's buttocks with one palm, and ran straight to the path blocked by the guards in front of him.

A group of archers shoot with arrows.

It's just that although Sha Wanli has a heavy palm, he seems to be fine, and he wields his big sword vigorously, knocking down all the arrows that come near.

Even Li Yuanxiu couldn't help but exclaim in a low voice, "It's so powerful to practice kung fu." ”

He could see that the old beggar's palm was strong and heavy, and even if he received that palm, it would not be easy for him to receive it.

However, at this time, the arrows were raining down, and it was inconvenient for him to take Nasha Wanli.

"Hmmm......"

"Hmm......"

After that, Sha Wanli fought with two arrows in his body, and was able to rush in front of the guards.

He swung his eight-ring knife continuously, and the copper ring sounded, and the two guards in front of him resisted with horizontal guns, but they were split in half by the people with their guns.

In the midst of the dumbfounded crowd, Sha Wanli relied on his martial arts and rushed out of the encirclement in a daze.

The archers of the left wing of the dragon guard shot another wave of arrows.

Sha Wanli turned around to resist, but after all, it was a little inconvenient, and he was hit by two arrows.

But even so, he was not dead, and fled in panic along the path on horseback.

"Chase!"

Zhao Dongting naturally didn't want to let him go, and led a group of guards and horses to chase after him.

The sound of horses' hooves like a storm exploded again in the night.
