How smart Han Denian is. After Zheng Ying told him the content of the note, he immediately understood why he was the only one in this study. Jiang Shangshu is going to poke a hole in the sky! After many ups and downs, Han Denian boasted that he had already seen through life and death, but on this day, he couldn't help but sigh that he was not as good as Jiang Wenbin.

This new Shangshu was also bold, and he dared to offend the officials and nobles of the entire Great Zhou in one go.

How could Xie Xiang and Gu Daxue agree to Jiang Wenbin doing such a thing, that is, he Han Denian, this poor man with no home or property can easily accept it. Although he has now mixed into the six-rank official, according to the law of the Great Zhou, he can also enjoy some tax exemption treatment, but he has no shop and no land, a house, which was bought by King Xin, and those subordinates in the house are actually not ordinary servants, some are from the Wang's Mansion, some are from the Princess Pingyang Mansion, and some are selected by his niece and the fourth princess from Yiling and sent to Beijing for him.

In short, the person is not his, how did Ding Fu accept it, Han Denian really didn't think about it, anyway, he didn't have to pay for it, so he didn't know.

He, a poor ghost, even drilled the camp in Beijing to give gifts, relying on the inheritance of his eldest sister, where did he care about the tax problem in the family.

"Mr. Han," Zheng Ying asked, "what do you think of Jiang Shangshu's recital?" ”

Han Denian didn't answer, but asked rhetorically: "What does the prince think of what he said in the song?" ”

"Hit the nail on the head." Zheng Ying sighed: "But ......"

"But, it's difficult!" Han Denian replied for Zheng Ying: "The current tax law loophole is like a huge abscess, no matter what it is, it will continue to fester, and when it is terminally ill, our Great Zhou will also reach the end of the road." But if it is to be treated, it is necessary to dig up the flesh to take out the sores, and hurt the muscles and bones. This is not to touch the interests of some people, but to touch the interests of all the courtiers, nobles, and royal families up and down the entire Great Zhou, and it is not difficult to imagine how much resistance will be encountered. ”

Zheng Ying closed her eyes. He understands what Han Denian said. Let him blindfold and pretend to be confused, he can't do it. But the consequences of this letter are sparse, and Zheng Ying is not sure whether she has enough ability to help Jiang Wenbin shelter from the wind and rain.

Now he was thinking about more than just raising money for the war in the North. Zheng Ying knows that Jiang Wenbin's performance is not only related to the war situation in the north, but also related to the livelihood of the society.

"This king entered the palace overnight, and my father must be prepared for this matter." Zheng Ying took a deep breath and stood up: "Mr. Han, you ......"

He hesitated for a moment, and then ordered: "Don't go back yet, and write two notes for this king." ”

"Publicly support Jiang Shangshu's recital?" Han Denian immediately frowned: "Think twice, Lord Wang!" The stakes are high, and we must not act recklessly. ”

"Nope." Zheng Ying shook her head: "Sir, please draft a two-point impeachment note on behalf of the king." One impeachment of Uncle Wei for tax evasion, the other impeachment of Lin Xiang for illegally buying and selling land near Songcheng, the evidence is that the king is called Ji Ling Na to you, write it out first, and wait for the king to come back from the palace. ”

"Good!" Han Denian immediately nodded happily, he rolled up his sleeves, sat down unceremoniously in front of Zheng Ying's desk, and began to lay paper and polish ink: "Don't worry, the prince, leave this matter to me." ”

Zheng Ying entered the palace overnight, of course, this can't hide from Queen Wei and Zheng Jin, it won't take half an hour, everyone who should know will know. Therefore, Zheng Ying instructed Han Denian to write these two notes, which were the "reasons" to prepare for herself.

Moreover, Zheng Ying was originally thinking about copying the Wei family and the Lin family in the near future and getting some military expenses for the north, but now it is just right now, it is easy to get together.

Zheng Ying entered the palace very late, the palace gate had been keyed, and the emperor had already changed his bed clothes and was ready to sleep. When the inner eunuch hurriedly came to deliver the message, Chen Quanli on duty was startled, and the king of Xin entered the palace at this time, if he said that there was no big deal, Chen Quanli himself would not believe it. He immediately sent the little inner eunuch back to deliver the message, and asked King Xin to wait in the imperial study first, and then hurriedly turned around to invite the emperor.

Fortunately, the emperor didn't go to the queen's mother today. Chen Quanli remembered the events of a few days ago, and couldn't help but pat his chest happily.

"The fifth is here?" The emperor immediately lifted the quilt and sat up, pulled his sleeping shoes and walked out. Chen Quanli hurriedly picked up the cloak and hurriedly covered the emperor.

When Zheng Ying arrived at the imperial study, the emperor was already waiting for him. Before Zheng Ying could salute, the emperor hurriedly asked, "Tell me quickly, what's the matter, is it an emergency military situation in the north?" ”

"Not this time." Zheng Ying shook her head: "But Erchen has something important to play immediately, so he entered the palace overnight." ”

"You say." The emperor was still frowning, but his face was slightly lighter than before. He was really startled just now, and thought that Shuozhou was lost.

"Father." Zheng Ying raised her head and looked at the emperor. The emperor looked at his son's face, waved his hand very understandingly, sent away the inner eunuchs and palace maids who were with him, and specially told Chen Quanli to stay outside the door and not allow anyone to approach.

When everyone was gone, Zheng Ying spoke, he didn't wait for the emperor to ask again, he came to a bamboo tube and poured beans, and told Jiang Wenbin what Jiang Wenbin came to the door today. Zheng Ying has a good memory, and she recounted Jiang Wenbin's letter clearly and without omission.

During his narration, the emperor did not interrupt or ask questions, just frowned all the time, sat in a chair and listened quietly. waited until Zheng Ying closed his mouth before he asked, "It's over?" ”

"It's over." Zheng Ying nodded.

"Let's talk about what you're going to do." The emperor was still frowning, looking at his son's eyes with a hint of scrutiny.

"Since the son has entered the palace overnight, the father should be clear about the attitude of the son." Zheng Ying replied.

"I didn't ask you what you thought of Jiang Wenbin's performance," the emperor shook his head: "I asked you what you plan to do." I know that Jiang Wenbin's performance is beneficial and harmless, but the matter cannot be solved by a single letter, and you know how much resistance there will be. ”

"Erchen has made up his mind to stand up and support Jiang Shangshu." Zheng Ying replied in a deep voice: "It's just that Erchen doesn't know if he has enough ability to shelter Jiang Shangshu from the wind and rain......"

"You don't!" The emperor slapped the bookcase: "Don't doubt it at all!" Even I don't have the ability to protect him. ”

"Father." Zheng Ying raised her head, her eyes slightly surprised.

"Huh...... Do you think that if you become an emperor, you can command the world? The emperor sneered: "Innocent! Don't underestimate the energy of the courtiers. On the surface, I sit on this throne and accept the worship of the courtiers, but in fact, the power of the emperor and the rights of the courtiers are checking and balancing each other, and I do not have the ability to command the world, and no emperor has the ability to command the world. ”
