Chapter 123 Wu Ning's "Awakening World"

The beginning of a dynasty is already doomed to its end.

In other words, an era is reborn because of a founder, but the genes of the founder are also deeply imprinted in this era until it leads to the demise of an era.

For example, Liu Bang Lihan reused his relatives, while the Han Dynasty died from his relatives.

For example, Zhao Kuangyin emphasized literature and suppressed martial arts, and the tragic Song Dynasty also fell due to weak military equipment.

For another example, Li Shimin Shenwu I fought in the south and the north, and the Tang Dynasty turned from prosperity to decline, precisely because the territory was too wide and the defense was difficult, so the feudal towns were restructured.

The policy of benefiting the people with a light salt tax made the government want to increase the fiscal tax from the salt service, which created countless illegal salt dealers.

In the chaotic times at the end of the Tang Dynasty, it was such a large number of salt dealers who completely tore apart the Tang Dynasty.

Wu Ning doesn't understand history, but he still has some understanding of this most splendid era in China.

......

But the root of the curse has been buried, and it will inevitably come to decline!

However, from an economic point of view, at least Wu Ning feels that Datang is not hopeless. On the contrary, with the current territory, social composition, power structure, international status, and national centripetal force, as long as the opportunity is found, Datang can move towards another new ending.

And now, there is an opportunity in front of Wu Ning, an opportunity that may be able to turn history around.

Should he have caught? Should I give it a go?

Not for myself, just for an era, for the voice that I have been longing for in my heart.

Give it a fight, it's worth it!

......

"What is Jiuro going to write?"

The stakes of Taiping's heartbeat, because Wu Ning's momentum at this time had completely changed, and there seemed to be a manic aura in her eyes that made her a little scared.

Kind words advise: "Don't be impulsive. ”

"......" Wu Ning was speechless for a while.

Impulsive? Impulse.

Once Mrs. Wu is also a utilitarian person who doesn't care about the people's suffering and just wants to be the emperor, then Wu Ning's life experience plus what he wants to write now is enough for him to die 10,000 times.

However, what does it matter if you are impulsive in two lives?

......

"Your Majesty the Queen of Heaven of the Holy Martial Divine Skill!"

Wu Ning solemnly put down the pen.

"Caomin, Fangzhou Wu's, Ning Ye, Xingchang Pingshengshi, Meng'en Gou'an."

"Less is not more, unsolved poetry books, only a few words and a little enlightenment. However, if you don't know Confucius and Mencius, how can you know reason, and if you don't know the etiquette, how can you be upright? ”

"Besides, Yan sat in front of the hall, and he was far-sighted, and he was not Ning's ambition. The Holy Empress Long really didn't dare to bear it, and he was guilty. ”

"The grass people are terrified, and they are sincere in their deaths, and they hope that the saint will be compassionate."

"The government of the country is not evil. However, the holy queen did not dare to refrain from love, and offered a strategy to fulfill her filial piety. ”

Here, Wu Ning used the word "filial piety" instead of "loyalty", presumably if Wu Zetian really knew Wu Ning's life experience, he would also feel it.

Below, is Wu Ning's strategy, but it is a bit long.

Princess Taiping was originally standing by and watching him write, but from morning to noon, Wu Ning hadn't finished writing, and Her Royal Highness the princess couldn't stand it a little and went back to the room to rest.

After waiting for more than an hour, Taiping returned to Wu Ning's house to see that he was still writing.

Taiping didn't want to go in and disturb him, but when it came to dinner, Wu Ning didn't stop.

At night, still writing......

The next morning, Her Royal Highness the princess woke up, had breakfast, and looked over, still writing!!!

Princess Taiping is not calm, what is this written? It is estimated that looking at the Tang Dynasty, the founding of the People's Republic of China has not had such a long recital, right?

......

Hehe, look at Datang?

Looking at the thousands of years of dynastic history in China, it is not as long as Wu Ning's performance.

What kind of books of ten thousand words did they follow, long plays and the like, in front of Wu Ning's performance, it is estimated that they are not even a fraction.

This article was written for three days and three nights, with 719 sheets of hemp paper, a total of 136,822 crosses, and later generations called this piece that changed the fate of the Tang Dynasty "Tang Ce: Awakening the World".

When the eunuch came to the Wu family's courtyard again and was about to connect Wu Ning to the capital, no one answered, but took a large box.

The old eunuchs are stupid, what's the situation?

However, Wu Ning didn't leave, and he had no choice but to return to Beijing with a suitcase.

I am still praying in my heart, I hope that I will not anger the Holy Queen and take the life of your boy.

And as soon as he arrived in Luoyang, the eastern capital, the old eunuch moved the box to Wu Ze, and the old lady Wu was also shocked.

"He's not coming?"

"After returning to the saint, Wu Ning was not gracious, and only let the slave and maid bring back this box, saying that it was a replay with the holy queen."

“......”

Wu Zetian smiled, "Since you don't come, what echo will you send?" ”

"Open it!"

When the eunuch heard the order, he promised to open the box, only to see that the box was full of paper.

The old eunuch couldn't hold it alone, so he had to pick up a few of them and hand them to Wu Zetian.

Mrs. Wu took it lazily and flipped it open:

Less or more, unsolved poetry books, only a little enlightenment in mathematics?

......

I don't know how Confucius and Mencius know reason, and I don't know etiquette......

......

The grass people are terrified, and they are sincere in their deaths, and they hope that the saints will be compassionate.

Seeing this, Wu Zetian smiled, "Sure enough, it's a smart child!" ”

But take a closer look:

Offer a strategy to fulfill filial piety......

The old lady was stunned again, he actually guessed?

Straighten up and look down.

The Tang Dynasty, with the military to establish the country, with the prestige of the world, the majestic dwelling in the four seas, the king of the five mountains.

The first sentence made Wu Zetian frown, this is completely condescending, and it is not at all the tone that a minister should have for the people.

Further down, Wu Zetian's expression became more and more gloomy.

Because below, Wu Ning stood from the perspective of a person in power, a condescending perspective, and thoroughly analyzed the Tang Dynasty from the inside out, from the military to the government, from the advantages to the disadvantages.

With a long-term vision and profound thinking, even Wu Zetian, the real ruler of the Tang Dynasty for decades, sighed to himself, which also completely touched the murderous intent in Wu Zetian's heart.

I really don't know whether to live or die!

Old Lady Wu gritted her teeth secretly, "Who gave you such guts!?" ”

If it was in the past, Mrs. Wu would not say a word, and directly ordered Wu Ning to be captured.

But this time, Wu Zetian felt that he had to take a while.

Because, Wu Ning really got to the point.

In particular, the analysis of the current court's finances and taxes in one of the paragraphs is simply three points, so that Mrs. Wu can't even take her eyes off.

I saw Wu Ning write in the notebook:

At present, the tax of the Tang Dynasty has an annual income of 30 million.

Break down the categories:

Rent and money, half out of ten (about 50%)

Household Tax: 1/10 (5%)

Government Tax: 1 in 10 (10%)

Qualifications: 1/10 (5%)

Envoy Money: 1 in 10 (10%)

Official Fields: 1/10 (5%)

Lease (government usury): 1/10 (5%)

The above items have accounted for nine out of ten, and the rest are: tax grass, foot money, warehouse kiln, additional consumption, account number, soil tribute, gou, regular liquidation, salt class, copper and iron less than one.

Wu Zetian is naturally familiar with these numbers.

It's just that to the old lady's surprise, Wu Ning used a form she had never seen before to show these numbers-

Pie comparison chart.

I saw that all the finances and taxes of the Tang Dynasty were drawn by Wu Ning in a circle, and each tax was divided into several sectors by the proportion of the circle, which was clear at a glance.

It's just plain sight!

Of course, the largest share is the agricultural tax represented by the "rent adjustment", which accounts for 50 percent, which is half a circle.

And like the salt class, copper and iron, the warehouse kiln, and the consumption of these, there is only a filament that is almost indistinguishable on the whole circle.

Wu Laojiu used an unprecedented way to let Mrs. Wu see her country so intuitively for the first time.
