Lin Chen raised his sword eyebrows, his eyes full of contempt, "Stubborn fool, you have completely angered me, and you will have to pay a heavy price!" ”

With that, he raised his hand and threw the letter to Wang Xizhi.

Wang Xizhi tore open the envelope, glanced at Lin Chen with a complicated expression, and then lowered her head to read the letter. Xu Lao Liu was very curious, what kind of famous name Lin Chen's fierce god had made, and he also came up to see it.

"This letter is written by Mr. Er himself, if you dare to question that it is fake, then Lin admires you for being a man! The gentleman originally told me not to rush to take it out, but hum, it's all your own fault! ”

Lin Chen's face was as cold as morning frost, as the personal disciple of the Lord of Langya Pavilion, it was the first time that he was confronted by others when he walked outside.

Gradually, Wang Xizhi's hand holding the letter paper began to tremble. With the twitching of the muscles at the corners of his mouth, the sparse whiskers on his chin also trembled slightly.

Clearly, his emotions were taking a violent hit.

Lin Chen looked at these details in his eyes and sneered, "Your Majesty intends to eliminate differences and unify the decrees of all parts of the world, so I gave the old Qin clan a step down in advance, but I didn't expect you to be so confused that the situation will become more and more dead." You've all seen the next punishment? ”

On the other side, Liu Chuanfeng watched coldly, and he couldn't figure out in his heart how the famous Second Mr. would clean up these stubborn gentlemen.

"Before I leave Beijing, Mr. Yuan will give you a face-to-face lecture, as long as you are willing to obey mediation, he will ask Your Majesty to keep your two official titles unchanged. Based on what Miyagi said just now, don't want me to speak for you in front of my husband! ”

"Written in black and white, written clearly. Either the entire Xiangbei will confiscate 30% of the land and return it to the imperial court, or 30% of the tax and grain will be levied every year in the future, you can choose for yourself! ”

Wang Xizhi's face was pale, and the court's tough attitude this time far exceeded his expectations.

Prior to this, he had always thought that the so-called pacification of party disputes was nothing more than a show, a false and wrongful affair. If there was no revenge for killing his son, he should reluctantly tolerate Liu Chuanfeng and slowly figure it out in the future.

It wasn't until he read the letter tonight and saw the thunderous means of degrading officials, seizing land, and collecting taxes that he realized that Her Majesty the Empress was going to be serious.

His lips twitched, and he was about to say his choice, when Lin Chen spoke coldly, as if he had seen through his thoughts.

"I advise you, don't count on the old guards and thieves! Your Majesty has worked hard, and now there is no room for sand in his eyes, and the thirty percent of the land I just said is not aimed at those poor peasants, but all the landlords in northern Hunan are counted! As for the 30% tax grain, no one dares to cheat, and not a single grain of grain you should pay is missing! ”

Wang Xizhi's heart trembled suddenly, and Lin Chen broke his luck thoughts, which made his last retreat gone.

"Too much deception!" His face turned pale, he slapped the table hard, and forced a palm print on the table, "Who has been sleeping in the open all these years, planting land and collecting grain for the pampered officials and nobles in the capital!" They eat us, use us, and have the face to cut us! ”

He stared at Lin Chen, his eyes were extremely cold. The confiscation of land touched his bottom line, which was tantamount to tearing his face and forcing him to show his hideous face.

"When the imperial court crosses the river and demolishes the bridge, isn't it afraid that the people's resentment will boil and the entire Tang Dynasty will be famine? I don't know if we should settle the party struggle or not, but I know that if we want to fill everyone's jobs, we have to rely on us! I put my words here, as long as the court moves its mind again, there will be chaos in Xiangbei in the coming year! ”

The weight of thirty percent weighs, and as a taishou, he knows very well. Now, he's really angry. This statement just now is not only for himself, but also on behalf of the entire Xiangbei landlord group.

If they swallow their anger any longer, they will be completely finished.

Lin Chen was silent for a while and asked, "I understand, Lord Wang is going to take grain to threaten the imperial court to change course?" ”

Wang Xizhi sneered and was silent, as if she was watching a clown performance.

Lin Chen said tentatively: "Lord Wang, openly resisting the imperial decree is no different from rebellion, this is a big crime of the Nine Clans, do you really have the courage to do this?" ”

Wang Xizhi said: "Don't play boring word games in front of the old man!" If the granary is on fire, it will shake the country's foundation, you just have to convey this sentence back, how to decide, it's not your turn to decide! ”

When Lin Chen heard this, his eyes paused, and he said lightly: "There is no need to convey it." There is a secret, I shouldn't have leaked it, but since Lord Wang is full of confidence, then I have to say it to see if you dare to continue to be tough. ”

Wang Xizhi was indifferent.

"Equalizing the party struggle, this is the national policy of His Majesty, and it involves the foundation of the government, and it is absolutely impossible to rely on brute force alone. Whether it is Donglin or Xiling, after fighting for so many years, it is actually nothing more than a competition for interests around the word 'agricultural business'. ”

"The former Qin is fertile and suitable for farming. The lakes of Soochow are dense, and commerce and trade are thriving. Your Majesty was unwilling to generalize, so I left it to your own devices. But now, she has decided to sweep away the old evils, reward ploughing battles, and raise troops to the fields! ”

"Tuntian?" Hearing this unfamiliar word, Wang Xizhi's heart suddenly froze, and she had a bad premonition.

Lin Chen said: "Tuntian, this is a big deal from Mr. Er. To put it simply, it was to take advantage of the armistice between the north and the south to send the main force of the army to all parts of the country, so that the soldiers could open up the wasteland and farm, hoard military salaries and tax grain, so as to enrich the country and strengthen the army! ”

"Specifically, different states and counties will have different tuning laws. For example, your nemesis, the nine counties of Eastern Wu, where the imperial court will fill in lakes and make fields, and at the same time encourage local merchants to go to the tun area to sell grain, circulate it to all parts of the country, and slowly ban your transportation in northern Hunan Province! ”

Speaking of this, the corners of Lin Chen's mouth were raised, and his smile was full of sarcasm.

"As for Qianqin, Lord Wang was worried that there would be turmoil and affect the supply of grain, so he was too worried. Soon a powerful army will be stationed in northern Hunan to receive the fertile land confiscated from you, are you sure that there are still people who dare to take the lead in rebellion? Even if it's really messy, my Datang won't be short of food in the future! ”

He leaned slightly, admiring the horror on Wang Xizhi's face, and said playfully: "Do you think that you are watching the fire from across the shore and know the situation in the capital well?" Hmph, in the eyes of the big men in the court, you dirt buns sitting in the well and watching the sky are a big joke! ”

In the past, the former Qin Wang clan was a rat in the granary of the world, choking the throat of the Tang Dynasty's eating, and the emperor did not want to have more riots, so he chose to appease and raise adultery.

As long as the tuntian system is implemented, the production area of Datang will increase sharply in the future, scattered throughout the country, and will no longer be constrained by a corner of northern Hunan, and the former Cao Yun will gradually decline.

In this way, how could the emperor tolerate these self-styled outdated old clans.

Unwilling to settle down? Then get rid of you all!

Who can stop the emperor's army!
