Chapter 920: Yanying Hall Fights
It's August 15 of another year, the Mid-Autumn Festival.
This year's Mid-Autumn Festival, Luoyang City is particularly lively and festive.
After years of war, I finally saw hope for the end. Although there are still three feudatories in the south of the Yangtze River, at least the north has been completely pacified.
With the pacification of the war in the north, the emperor also issued an edict to exempt Hebei Hedong, Huainan, Guanzhong, Longyoushuo, and Fang Dingxiang from two taxes a year.
At the same time, with the pacification of the north, the imperial court also began to send officials to the northern provinces, evaluate the officials, comprehensively survey the household registration of the population, and count the fields, and then comprehensively implement the two tax laws on this basis.
The imperial court also formally abolished the tax system of rent adjustment and fully implemented the two-tax law. The two taxation laws are divided into two taxes: household tax and land tax, and households are divided into nine grades according to the rich and poor, and the land is levied on grain per acre.
Although the land is still granted on a uniform basis, it is no longer adjusted according to the rent of the Ding, but the household tax and field rent are paid according to the number of acres of land and so on. In addition, all miscellaneous taxes are also included in the two taxes and are not subject to additional taxes. For example, the common people will no longer need to serve for free in the future, because the two taxes they pay already include a sum of money for substitute service.
If the people are called up for service, they no longer serve for free, but on the contrary, they still have money.
In the past, Yiding had to serve 20 days of free service a year, and if he didn't finish it, he had to pay for the service called replacing Yong with silk.
Under the new two-tax system, both the gentry, nobles, and commoners all paid their grain and taxes in one piece. In the past, officials did not pay taxes and did not serve, but now the same is to pay taxes according to the mu, and the same is to pay money for service, the only difference is that officials can reduce their corresponding tax deductions according to their grades, but their children, brothers, relatives, etc., except for themselves, cannot be exempted.
The new tax system is simpler, divided into summer and autumn, and more fair and reasonable.
Those who occupy more land and those whose families are wealthy pay more taxes, and those who occupy less land pay less taxes, and if they have no land, they have no land tax, and there is no property and no household tax.
At the same time, there are industrial and commercial taxes, and there are special taxes on tea, salt, wine, and mines, which were unprecedented in the Sui Dynasty in the past.
There is no indication that there will be a big war ahead, and although it is clear to everyone that the Three Kings of the South will definitely be wiped out, at least not now.
Ziwei Palace.
The emperor set up a palace banquet today to entertain the heroes.
Luo Siye, Yin Kaishan, Duan Zhixuan, Hou Junji, etc. in Pingding Guanlong, Luo Cunxiao, Feng Xiaoci, Zhao Gui, etc. in Hebei, as well as Qu Tutong, Pei Renji, and Wei Chigong in Pingding Hedong, and Song Laosheng, Luo Shixin, and Xu Shiji outside Pingding Guan.
And there are Qin Qiong, Su Dingfang, Du Fuwei, Fu Gonghu, Kan Ling, Wang Xiongdan and so on in Huainan.
Pingding Shannan Han in Shan Xiongxin, Huang Jun, Han Zhai Rang, etc.
Luo Yi, Li Xizhi, Feng An, Li Jing and so on in Pingding Lingnan.
There are also prime ministers of the court, Hou Mochen, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Zhang Xutuo, Du Yan, etc. to accompany them.
But the most striking thing is actually another group of people.
When Li Mi, Wang Shichong, Dou Jiande, Li Liang, Chen Ling, Murong Shun, Liang Shiluo, Li Shimin and others entered the palace, the eyes of all the prime ministers and heroes became very interesting.
"Pushan County Prince, please come here!"
An attendant came over to summon Li Mi, who was a little distracted, and asked him to take a seat.
Chi Gong, the Duke of Eguo, saw that Li Mi actually sat on top of him, and his black face became even darker, he split his head and covered his face, and slapped the table directly at Li Mi.
"How old are you, a defeated general, dare to sit on top of me?"
Li Mi was taken aback, he was already small, and he also had a black face, but his people sat with Yu Chi Lao Hei, and he looked very small, Yu Chi was almost twice as big as him, and at this palace banquet, he roared at him in front of the ministers and prime ministers of the palace, which made Li Mi very embarrassed.
Originally, after the surrender of Qin, it was not allowed to be reused, although he was awarded the post of Jiuqing, and there was a county duke, but in fact, he has always sat on a cold bench, and even the ministry in the temple has always been held by Shaoqing, and it is the same whether he goes to the yamen to sit on duty.
But no matter how aggrieved he is, no one has ever insulted him in public like today.
Li Mi is also a temperamental person, thinking that he was also the leader of the Central Plains Alliance back then, with an army of 400,000. And at that time, Yu Chi Lao Hei was still striking iron on behalf of the north.
"This seat is all lined up, and I am only seated in the right seat, why is it above you, you shouldn't ask me!" He also replied directly.
"What do you mean, do you want to say that you have more credit than me?" Wei Chi originally thought that he was very brave and able to fight, but there was no him among the twenty-four heroes of the founding of Lingyan Gong, and there was no one among the Yuan Cong heroes of Liaodong.
Although he was awarded the title of Duke of Hubei, he was still very unhappy.
Now that Li Mi is such a subordinate, he still has to sit in front of him, which is even more unpleasant, Li Mi still dares to be so non-yin and yang, and his violent temper comes up all of a sudden.
Without saying a word, punch and fight.
Li Mi is good at strategy, and in terms of bravery alone, he can't beat one Wei Chigong out of ten. Even if Wei Chi didn't have a horse lance in his hand, he was still a master.
One punch knocked Li Mi into the air.
Li Zhongwen, who was also a descendant over there and was able to attend today, was not far from Li Mi, and when he saw his nephew being beaten away, he was also annoyed and pounced.
The two of them fought back and forth.
Li Shimin looked at this scene coldly and said nothing. However, his cousin Li Daozong next to him stepped forward to persuade him very actively.
"Don't fight, what kind of system."
It's okay if he doesn't persuade him, Wei Chigong looked at it, Li Zhongwen pulled one of his hands, Li Shentong came to pull him again, and he was even more annoyed at the moment, "You are a bird again, get out!" ”
As he spoke, he smashed a punch over, hitting Li Shentong's left eye, and Li Shentong turned dazzlingly, and even his eyes were bleeding.
Li Shimin was drinking cold wine from his own care, but when he saw the supernatural powers, his eyes were almost blind, and he was also furious, so he jumped up and smashed Wei Chigong's head hard when he picked up the few cases in front of him.
Wei Chigong shook his head and saw that it was the one-eyed Li Er.
"Look for death!"
He swung his arm and swung his fist, Li Shimin had already taken precautions and dodged, but Wei Chi's ferocity was not ordinary, and he immediately swung his arm to smash it, although Li Shimin raised his arm to block it, he also felt that a pair of arms were extremely painful.
"Don't hurt my second brother!"
Xuanba rushed over, and he swung his fists and smashed them down like meteors.
Over there, Li Mi also got up from the ground, turned around to join the battle group, and also took the opportunity to besiege Wei Chigong, and for a while, the battle was lively.
The emperor had just come in from outside the palace when he saw such a thing.
I couldn't help but be annoyed at the moment, "What's going on?" ”
Wei Zheng stepped forward with a smile and briefly said the matter, "This Wei Chi Laohei is a little confused!" ”
Luo Cheng stepped forward and yelled, "Enough, stop!" ”
Wei Chi originally wanted to refute, which onion are you, but when he turned his head and found that it was the emperor, he quickly put down his raised fist.
