His Royal Highness Taisun came up with only one word, tax.

The taxes of the imperial court are mainly three major blocks, the first is the land tax, which was only levied according to the amount of land in the past, and then because the land annexation was too strong, the imperial court continued to improve this tax, and now it is a combined taxation of land, household and Ding tax; The second is the excise tax, which mainly collects taxes on salt, iron, tea, wine, porcelain and other goods; The third block is the commercial tax, which is divided into customs duties and municipal taxes.

Taxation is the main source of national fiscal revenue, and taxation is closely related to people's livelihood. Therefore, the candidates present have an understanding of taxation, and the difference lies in the depth of understanding.

Fu Jingene has a very good understanding of taxation, and he now weighs in his heart what His Royal Highness Taisun will have towards this tax. After thinking about it for a while, he put pen to paper.

Time passed minute by minute, and Feng Xiaoyu fidgeted and kept walking around the room.

Old Madam Gu was dizzy when she saw it, but it was hard to say, so she could only endure it.

Qing Shu saw her reluctance and found an excuse to bring Feng Xiaoyu back to his own courtyard.

"The test will pass, and the probability of the temple test is almost zero, what are you worried about?"

Feng Xiaoyu shook his head and said, "Aren't you afraid of whatever?" ”

"As long as there is no loss of honor or misconduct in front of the temple, it is impossible to be brushed off. You look like this, there must be something else? ”

Feng Xiaoyu glanced at her and said, "I actually bet not one thousand taels, but three thousand taels." ”

Qing Shu was puzzled: "You can't afford to lose three thousand taels?" As for what it looks like? ”

"The point is that there are fifteen hundred silver seals in here!"

Qing Shu smiled and said: "Before the results come out, no one can be sure who the top three are, maybe you will win the bet?" ”

Feng Xiaoyu wanted to cry: "I bet on Zheng Mingdai, Zhou Peiye, and Lan Jin." ”

"But I now think that Lan Jin is likely to be the champion, so all the three bets will be lost." Feng Xiaoyu said with a sad face: "Feng asked me to bet on Lan Jin, but I didn't." If he had known, he would have hunted me down. ”

Qing Shu glanced at her and said, "It's really Lan Jin who won the exam, wouldn't it be good if you compensated him for your losses." ”

Feng Xiaoyu just didn't want to lose, so she was depressed.

Qingshu covered his mouth and smiled: "Then you can tell him the truth, and then tell him that your wedding gift is okay or not." ”

Feng Xiaoyu didn't agree: "How can this be?" One yard to one yard. ”

Qingshu didn't want to tell her anymore.

After lunch, the two went back to the house for a nap. Qingshu only slept for two hours in the afternoon, and when she woke up, she went to lean on the soft couch to read.

Suddenly, Feng Xiaoyu sat up from the bed, looked at Qingshu and said happily: "Qingshu, Qingshu, Guan Zhenqi was appointed by the emperor as the champion." ”

Qingshu put the study on his knees and said with a smile: "Congratulations on having a sweet dream, you can lie down and continue." ”

Feng Xiaoyu shook her head and said with a smile: "Maybe it's a dream come true!" ”

"If Guan Zhenqi is within ten, it is still possible, and there are more than fifty, no matter how the champion is, it will not be his turn."

Feng Xiaoyu was unhappy, and muttered: "You won't follow me and make me happy!" ”

Qingshu ignored her, got up and went to the study to practice calligraphy.

was practicing calligraphy, Feng Xiaoyu suddenly ran in and said, "Qingshu, great joy, great joy!" ”

Qingshu asked a little puzzled, "What kind of joy?" ”

Fu Jingene was pointed out as an example by His Royal Highness Taisun. Qingshu, Fu Jingene is the eye of the list. ”

The brush in Qingshu's hand fell on the table, but at this time she couldn't care about it: "Really?" You didn't lie to me. ”

When Feng Xiaoyu heard this, she said with a smile: "Of course I lied to you." ”

Qing Shu was so angry that he pinched her neck and scolded: "Feng Xiaoyu, you actually made such a joke with me." ”

Feng Xiaoyu laughed loudly, and when she saw that Qing Shu was really anxious, she said: "What coaxed you is true, Fu Jingene has hit the list." ”

Qingshu didn't believe her, looked at Chunlan who came in and asked, "Fu Jingene was hit by the list, is this true?" ”

Chunlan said with a smile on her face: "It's true, the eldest princess sent the news just now." ”

Qing Shu couldn't help but be happy.

Although the fifth place is also very good, it can't compare to the first one.

Qingshu said happily: "Reward, everyone will be rewarded with three months' monthly money." ”

Feng Xiaoyu stretched out his hand and said, "I want it too." ”

Qingshu smiled and asked, "What about Guan Zhenqi?" How many names is he this time? ”

"Forty-three."

It's better than the ranking when I was going to try, but it's too bad compared to Fu Jingen, so there's nothing to be happy about.

When Mrs. Gu heard the good news, she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth, and she said three good words in a row.

In this test, the champion Lan Jin, Bangyan Fu Jingene, and Tanhualang Zheng Daiming.

After getting this list, Feng Xiaoyu really cried, and she lost it all: "Three thousand taels, it's gone, my mother knows that she will scold me to death." ”

Qingshu smiled and said: "Don't cry, when the money I win is in hand, I will go to Fuyun Building for you to eat bear's paws and drink peach blossom stuff." ”

Feng Xiaoyu glanced at her and said, "How much money can you win on that bet?" ”

Qingshu bet on Lan Jin as the champion, but she only placed a hundred taels of silver, and the odds of Lan Jin being a big favorite are definitely not high.

"I placed two bets on Jing Lene, betting on him to win the list and Tanhua respectively, each bet was five hundred taels of silver."

With Lan Jin in front of him, he felt that Fu Jingene's champion was hopeless, but Bangyan and Tanhua could still fight for it. It's just that she wasn't sure, so she didn't tell Feng Xiaoyu.

Feng Xiaoyu shouted twice: "Why didn't you tell me about this?" ”

If she followed Qingshu to place a bet, she would definitely win.

"He's my fiancé, and I didn't think about winning money just to support him."

Feng Xiaoyu had nothing to say. She didn't bet on Guan Zhenqi, if she let him know, she didn't know if he would have an idea.

After saying two words, Feng Xiaoyu went back.

She didn't go back to the princess's mansion, but went directly to the princess's mansion. Seeing the eldest princess, Feng Xiaoyu asked, "Grandmother, isn't Fu Jingene the fifth?" Why he was named a role model. ”

The eldest princess smiled and said: "He wrote very well in the article of this palace examination, and he also answered questions freely when His Royal Highness the eldest grandson asked him, so he was named an example by His Royal Highness the eldest grandson." ”

Feng Xiaoyu said with some regret: "Why is it not the champion?" If it's the champion, how good it is. ”

The eldest princess chuckled and said, "That can't be helped, Lan Jin's performance in His Royal Highness the Taisun and the articles he writes are even better than him." ”

Feng Xiaoyu couldn't help muttering: "Grandmother, you said that Zhen Qi and Lan Jin have both been talented since childhood, why are the two so different?" ”

The eldest princess poked her forehead and said, "Lan Jin has ten lines at a glance, and she will never forget it, and her understanding is also extremely high. If you compare Guan Zhenqi with him, won't you feel uncomfortable for yourself. ”

"Fu Jingene, like Lan Jin, is also a person with a high level of understanding. It's just that he has a low starting point, and he has distracted some of his energy from practicing martial arts and business, otherwise it's really hard to say which of the two is higher. ”

Feng Xiaoyu said: "Then I still think Fu Jingene is more powerful." There are many people who can read, but there are very few who are both civil and military. ”

The eldest princess smiled.
