In ancient times, acne was the existence of making people smell and discolor, because it was extremely harmful and there was no cure, so it was generally solved by isolation and killing. This method is too simple and crude, so it is rarely recorded in the history books. This time, Wang Haoran made an unprecedented method to prevent cowpox, which is a trivial matter to solve a major problem in medicine, and it is a great achievement to save hundreds of people. The reward must be wanted, Li Shimin once wanted to crown Wang Haoran as a king with a different surname, after all, Wang Haoran's exploits to the Tang Dynasty are well known, but many ministers of the DPRK and China have expressed opposition, Wang Haoran's merits are too great, the popularity is high, and there is also the momentum of high merit to cover the master, and he has the leading technology in various fields, if he is crowned king, it will do more harm than good to anyone, including Wang Haoran himself. After some discussion with the courtiers, Li Shimin decided to change the title of Wang Haoran to the protector of the country, and the hereditary replacement.

Wang Haoran didn't care about these names, and after coming to the Tang Dynasty, he felt that the so-called status and prestige were so illusory, and only by doing something meaningful could life become meaningful.

When Li Shimin and Wang Haoran talked about the acne in Shezhou, Wang Haoran suggested that the imperial court charity should call on the people to donate for relief, and the imperial court had been allocating relief materials to Shezhou before, so that it could be stopped, and only need to make up for it when the people's donations were not enough.

"It's okay, the people of the Tang Dynasty have been paying taxes and taxes to the imperial court, and now the people of the Tang Dynasty are in difficulty, and it is natural for the imperial court to allocate material relief, how can the people of the Tang Dynasty pay out of their own pockets? Moreover, now that the treasury is sufficient, this little money is not a big problem. "Li Shimin is strange, Wang Haoran has always loved the people like a son, why is he suddenly standing on the side of the court and worrying about this money for the court?

"Brother Huang, charities call on people to donate is not forced, donate or not, or donate more or less, it is all voluntary, and the people will also measure their own family background, and people who are not well fed and clothed will naturally not donate. The problem is that the gap between the rich and the poor has always been wide throughout the ages, and it does not hurt for the rich to pay a 10% tax, while the poor may have to worry about food and clothing if they pay a 10% tax. Compared with the abundance of the Datang treasury, the prosperity of the common people can better reflect the strength of the Tang Dynasty. Therefore, the younger brother felt that it was very important to solve the problem of the disparity between the rich and the poor. In this case, the imperial court can set an example and let those wealthy people give love, whether they are famous or accumulating, they can always save some expenses for the imperial court. These savings can be subsidized on top of the taxes of the poor, so as to slightly narrow the gap between the rich and the poor. ”

"You mean abolishing taxes on grain?" Li Shimin understood Wang Haoran's intentions, the previous peasants' taxes were reduced again and again, and if they were reduced again, it would only be to cancel this kind of tax.

"That's right, now that the Tang Dynasty is prosperous, the main source of tax revenue of the imperial court has gradually shifted to commercial taxation, not to mention that the various industries of the imperial court have made a lot of profits, and in comparison, the taxes on agriculture are not worth mentioning."

"Hmm...... This can be discussed. Li Shimin was a little moved, but the proportion of taxes in agriculture was not really as worthless as Wang Haoran said, so this still needs to be summed up with the courtiers.

After Wang Haoran returned home, a few days later, there was no news about the cancellation of agricultural taxes, Fang Xuanling first asked someone to send an invitation, saying that he had obtained some new tea, and I heard that Wang Haoran was also good at tasting tea, so he asked him to taste it.

Wang Haoran didn't know why, he had no contact with Fang Xuanling in private, so it was impossible to really just let him go to taste tea, right? As for what happened, I only knew if I went.

Wang Haoran came as promised, Fang Xuanling really took out the new tea, and the tea brewed out was green and clear, with a sweet and mellow taste, but Wang Haoran only knew that this was green tea, and it tasted a little sweet, where did he know what tea art was?

"Good tea! The color and flavor are complete, and it can be described as a good tea! Wang Haoran liked the taste very much, so he praised it.

"Huh...... This tea is planted by a distant nephew of the old man, if the protector likes it, the old man asks him to give you more. ”

Wang Haoran thanked him, didn't go into much research, started some gossip, and waited for Fang Xuanling to flop.

After chatting for a long time, Fang Xuanling changed the topic to the topic and said: "A few days ago, the Emperor Taishang mentioned the abolition of agricultural taxes, and I heard that you also mentioned it to the Emperor Taishang, right?" ”

"Yes, I did." Wang Haoran wondered, could it be that someone had already made this suggestion before him? Who could that be? What is Fang Xuanling's intention when he mentions this matter? In the face of uncertain things, Wang Haoran could only speak less and wait and see what became better.

"The protector of the country can serve the country and the people at a young age, which makes the old man admire! In fact, before this, His Majesty had also mentioned this matter, but it was still under discussion, so it was not mentioned to the outside world. ”

"Oh...... And this matter, Your Majesty is benevolent and righteous, it is really a blessing for the people of the Tang Dynasty! Wang Haoran wondered even more, did Li Zhi make this suggestion? So why did Li Shimin react exactly like he heard this proposal for the first time when he mentioned it to Li Shimin a few days ago?

"Yes! Your Majesty is kind-hearted, and if the courtiers can assist him wholeheartedly, he will definitely be a generation of virtuous emperors in the future. Fang Xuanling saw that Wang Haoran had gone to explore what he was saying, and smiled, feeling that with Wang Haoran's intelligence, he could understand it without having to point out too much, so after saying this, he no longer took the initiative to talk about it.

After Wang Haoran left the house, he was still thinking about what Fang Xuanling was trying to express today, except for irrelevant small talk, what Fang Xuanling mentioned was only taxes and Li Zhi, what is the connection between the two? Wang Haoran suddenly had a flash of inspiration, he thought of a possibility, and then recalled Fang Xuanling's words, it can be said that Fang Xuanling wanted him to give up!

Li Zhi is only ten years old, and if he talks about fame, I am afraid that he is not as good as Wang Haoran. How can you be like this as an emperor? Li Shimin gave favor to Li Zhi, and many courtiers in the court were promoted in the name of Li Zhi. For the people of the Tang Dynasty, Li Zhi still has to have some favors and merits, so it is only appropriate that Li Zhi initiated the abolition of agricultural taxes. As for whether Li Zhi was the first to mention this matter, the truth does not matter, what the court and Wang Haoran said is the truth!

Wang Haoran felt that there was nothing wrong with this, if the history of later generations had not cheated him, Li Zhi would still be regarded as a virtuous emperor, and now that Wu Ruyi has not entered the palace as a concubine, the court will not cause any turmoil. So after that, Wang Haoran never mentioned the abolition of agricultural taxes, Li Shimin wanted Li Zhi to establish some popularity, then this matter was basically completed, and Wang Haoran did not need to say much at all.
