Everyone's suspicion is not without reason, after living a lifetime, I have never heard of such an absurd thing, those who farm and harvest more grain are rewarded, those who have more children are rewarded, and those who cultivate more land are also rewarded...... The emperor's treasury is broken, and there is too much money to put down?

You know, half of a family's money is used to pay taxes, after the exemption of the tax is equivalent to a reduction of 30% of the tax, after the spring of each year, the days no longer have to be so tight, you can put an extra handful of rice in the porridge, you can eat a full meal during the New Year's holidays, and the child born does not have to drown with tears in her eyes......

Some family members who have joined the army are more concerned about awarding titles for military merits, in case their men or sons, when they return home after the end of their service, they can get a big title, which is simply a glorious ancestor, and the family does not have to worry about it for several lifetimes.

Just, is all this true?

"Master Guan, how could the government issue such a notice, isn't it entertaining us?" Someone was a little bolder, full of suspicion and longing.

"It's an edict! Remember, this is an edict from His Majesty the Emperor, not an official proclamation! The little official made a serious correction and said: "His Majesty the Emperor is sympathetic to the feelings of the people and cares about the vast number of toiling civilians, this is the grace of heaven, but it is not something that the government can do!" ”

His Majesty the Emperor?

With the reminder of the little official, everyone looked at each other, it was the new emperor who was favored by the gods and led the army to repel the army of Zheng Guo?

For a while, everyone didn't care about any etiquette, and they all asked nonsense, for this emperor who had just ascended the throne and was full of mystery, there were all kinds of folk legends in the past few days, and the more they spread, the more miraculous, if it was really the decree implemented by the new emperor, it was probably true.

After the heated discussion, accompanied by the little official's patient explanation over and over again, the scene suddenly became quiet.

Then, there was a burst of cheers.

"There is salvation, we are saved!"

"The sky has eyes! Get through today! ”

"Quick! Go and tell the old lady on the hospital bed to let her have a good meal before leaving! ”

The crowd was excited, like a rooster crowing in the morning, excited, some crying to the sky, some kneeling wildly, some hugging and laughing, and some lost their souls for a long time and couldn't return to their senses, no matter what their actions and demeanor were, everyone was expressing their joy in different ways.

After all, this kind of moral politics has been unheard of for thousands of years, and for the common people, each of them is closely related, which is a real and visible benefit!

"Your Majesty! We should all thank Your Majesty for saving us from fire and water! In the crowd, someone suddenly howled and shouted.

Everyone reacted, and heard that it was His Majesty the Emperor who overrode public opinion and broke the obstruction of the family's gate valves, so that these decrees could be successfully introduced, which was true and genuine, and wholeheartedly thought about the people.

"Long live Your Majesty, long live the country!"

"Long live Your Majesty, long live the country!"

"Long live Your Majesty, long live the country!"

Everyone knelt down, the mountain roared and the tsunami roared, the momentum was continuous, and the air rushed into the sky, and then, from another alley on the east side of the imperial city, the same shout came again, echoing it.

At the same time, such a scene also happened all over the imperial city, people were full of passion, running to tell each other, one to ten, ten to hundred, and finally at a speed that the government was surprised, the three major decrees quickly spread throughout the city, so that those little officials who were about to preach were dumbfounded.

But think about it, what the three major decrees really damage is the interests of the clan lords, ordinary nobles and small officials all rely on the gate lords to survive, and even they all benefit because of these decrees, not to mention the commoners who are struggling on the death line.

The day does not understand the darkness of the night, and the nobles do not understand the suffering of the commoners.

Cangguo is boiling, at night, the whole imperial city is brightly lit, like a city that never sleeps, the common people who are immersed in cheers, have taken to the streets, every household opens the door, prays to the heavens, worships the ancestors, puts down vegetables and fruits to eat, the neighbors gather together, light bonfires, sing and dance, more lively than any festival.

Even the slaves, who had long been numb from torture, slowed down their work when they heard the news, and listened to the cheers from everywhere, with a look of longing on their faces.

The promulgation of the three decrees not only benefited the common people, but also their slaves, who were even more inferior than the common people, also found a way out in despair.

Because the meritorious lord system also includes the lowly slave class, although it is at the lowest level, it can also be redeemed by money, or join the army to make meritorious contributions, and get the opportunity to get rid of slavery and become a normal civilian.

In short, life is promising, and both commoners and lowly slaves are full of hope for the future.

For the bustle in the imperial city, the government is also quite a headache, under normal circumstances, the whole city is subject to curfew, except for the husband, everyone is not allowed to walk outdoors, but tonight is an exception, as the so-called law does not blame the public, so it can only be resigned, send more manpower, to prevent people from fishing in troubled waters, taking the opportunity to disturb the peace, stealing and robbing.

Unexpectedly, the security tonight was so good that the officials on duty in the Yamen Torture Room were all dozing off, and no one had come to report the case.

At the time of the third watch, I don't know who initiated it, but the people unexpectedly agreed, beating gongs and drums, playing flutes and music, dancing the fire dragon to the outside of the palace, kneeling on the ground and bowing to the inner court, as if completing the ceremony, shouting for a while, and then dispersed.

So much so that the next morning, when Yang Mu woke up, he couldn't stop yawning, and the two dark circles under his eyes were particularly conspicuous.

Ji Ling'er pursed her lips and snickered while serving him to dress.

"If you laugh again, believe it or not, I will correct you on the spot now!" Yang Mu showed a fierce appearance, in fact, he was quite helpless in his heart, it is estimated that there were not many people in the palace who fell asleep last night, and the cries outside the palace shook the sky, blowing down and beating drums, and anyone could lose sleep.

When Ji Ling'er heard this, she hurriedly lowered her head, her cheeks were flushed, like a fire burning on fire, of course she knew what Yang Mu meant by the in-situ Fa-rectification, and she hadn't heard much of it in the past few days.

"By the way, the people outside the city are really so excited?" Yang Mu washed his face and asked suddenly.

Ji Ling'er nodded: "Your Majesty is benevolent, save the people of Li from fire and water, the people are naturally ecstatic, there are still a lot of thankful people kneeling outside the palace, do you want to go to the observation deck to have a look?" ”

Observation deck? What to see? Look at them kneeling and kowtowing, or teach everyone to sing Dongfang Hong, the sun rises, and there is a savior in Cangguo?

Yang Mu thought for a moment and shook his head, in his opinion, the three major decrees in feudal civilization are actually just an insignificant wave, the foundation of the foundation.

It's just that for the people who have been oppressed and devastated in this world, it is indeed like rain in a great drought, and it is normal for those people to be ecstatic, but if even he, a person who understands, thinks so, it is pride and complacency, and the pace of reform is basically over.

As a feudal ruler, you must keep a clear head, and you must not indulge in singing praises!

"Oh, by the way, the three feudal princes arrived in the imperial city yesterday, and this is almost a day, you immediately pass the decree, summon the three kings, the six important ministers, the right minister, Wei Zhongquan and Sima Hong, and after an hour, go to the Zichen Palace to discuss the matter."
