However, this is just a rumor, the royal family said that after Emperor Jingyuan entered the hinterland of Darong, he was ambushed by the Rong people, lurked in Darong after being injured, and finally fled to Longshan after difficulties, and was rescued by the father and son of Weiguo Gong and sent back to the capital safely.

But I heard my father say that since then, Emperor Jingyuan's temperament has indeed begun to change, becoming suspicious, alarming, and even violent.

But Emperor Jingyuan can pretend, and he has a good father, and finally he successfully ascended to the throne.

But since he ascended the throne, he began to die, and as soon as he ascended the throne, he set his sights on the first line of Wei Guogong, and after planning for more than two years, he began to act against the first line of Wei Guogong. In the end, the entire Northwest Army's defense was completely disrupted, so that the current Northwest Army had no combat strength and was beaten by the Rong people without the power to fight back.

"Young Master, I'm home." Zezi shouted, stopped the mule cart, Erqing took the lead in jumping off the board of the front car, moved the stool and put it away, and retreated to the side to wait.

Gu Jinan got off the mule cart immediately, the atmosphere in the car was too lingering, his brother-in-law couldn't stay, and he was afraid that he would vomit blood in anger if he stayed any longer.

Qin Sanlang didn't stay long, but helped Gu Jinli get out of the car.

"Brother An, Xiaoyu, you can be regarded as coming back, if you don't come back, you will have to go to the town to find someone." Gu Dashan has been waiting at the door of the house, for fear that Gu Jin'an and them will have a bad deal: "San Lang is also back, then dare to be kind, go into the house quickly, dinner has already been prepared, and you can eat it immediately." ”

Gu Dashan was very happy to see Qin Sanlang, this future second son-in-law hadn't been home for a long time, and it hadn't been peaceful recently, so he was worried about him.

"Uncle Oyama." Qin Sanlang smiled, let go of Gu Jinli's hand with some reluctance, saluted Gu Dashan with a fist, and followed Gu Dashan into the house.

The third grandfather, the third grandmother, and the Cui family were all very happy to see Qin Sanlang, and immediately added dishes and chopsticks and beckoned him: "Sanlang hurry up and come over and sit, he must be hungry when he comes back so late, let's hurry up and start eating." ”

"Huh." After Qin Sanlang greeted a few elders, he looked at Qin Lao on the side and said, "Grandpa, my grandson is back, everything has been fine recently, grandpa rest assured." ”

After hearing this, Qin Lao's brows were obviously relaxed, and he nodded and said, "Let's sit down and eat." ”

The two families had a meal happily, and after the meal, the three grandmothers surrounded Qin Sanlang and asked: "San Lang, the emperor is going to raise taxes, if you can't pay it, will you be beheaded?" ”

Qin Sanlang nodded: "Yes, maybe even the whole clan." ”

The emperor has never been a soft-hearted person, but a master who is very good at killing people with the blade of power, and his self-esteem is still very strong, even if he does something wrong, he will not admit his mistake and correct it until he has to, but will suppress it strongly.

Therefore, when it comes to taxes, if anyone dares not to pay them, they must be prepared to behead the whole village.

When the soldiers' families can't afford to pay the taxes, and the soldiers turn back, the emperor will not admit his mistakes, but send troops to suppress them, and if he can suppress them, he will continue to make mistakes.

Therefore, the current situation is quite unfavorable to the peasants, they cannot rise up, and the emperor has never taken their resistance seriously. In the emperor's eyes, the miscellaneous soldiers gathered by the peasants were nothing more than a rabble, and only the rebellious soldiers could make the emperor afraid.

"Eh, what's going to happen here?" The third grandmother cried out loud: "Won't God give us farmers a way to live?" In the past few years, there have been disasters and military disasters, and I thought that life in the south would be better, but I didn't expect it to be so difficult. With such a high tax, I'm afraid that a lot of people will die this time. ”

The third grandmother cried very sadly, she was a person who had suffered a lot, and when she was old, she thought that she could live in peace, but when she encountered such a thing, she was really desperate.

I thought of the Fuya family again.

"I don't know where Fuya's family is settled now, what if I don't have the money to pay taxes and be pulled to cut off my head?" The third grandmother said, covering her face and crying bitterly.

Gu Jinan hurriedly said: "Third grandmother, don't cry, Aunt Fuya's family is blessed with a great life, and there will be no trouble." ”

He also said: "Mr. Ouyang's family has already made a move, and plans to unite several wealthy and powerful families to open a money bank and borrow silver to pay taxes to the farmers of Dachu. As long as the peasants can borrow money to pay their taxes, this calamity will pass. ”

"Really?" The third grandmother's eyes lit up and asked, "Can your Aunt Fuya's family also borrow silver to pay taxes?" ”

Gu Jinan nodded: "Naturally, it is possible, the power of the wealthy families is all over Dachu, as long as this money village is opened, the farmers of the entire Dachu can borrow money, and Aunt Fuya's family can borrow silver as long as they are still in Dachu." ”

Gu Jinan knew that Aunt Fuya was the hope of the third grandmother to live, and in order not to make the third grandmother desperate, he lied.

Mr. Ouyang and the Dou family do have money, but no amount of silver is enough to smash it, at most, it is for the people of He'an Mansion to borrow silver.

The third grandmother believed Gu Jin'an, and when she heard this, she grabbed his hand and said, "That's good, so that your Aunt Fuya's family will be saved." ”

I also asked Mr. Ouyang about opening a money bank and lending money to farmers.

Gu Jinan picked up something that could be said.

"You wait." After hearing this, the third grandmother ran back to the house, and when she came back, she had an extra box in her hand: "This is the silver that our two elders saved, you take it to Mr. Ouyang...... Maybe the money will end up in my Fuya's hands. ”

Gu Jinan didn't want it, but this was a sustenance from the third grandmother, so he had to accept it.

But only half of it was taken, and the remaining half was still in the box, and it was returned to the third grandmother: "These are enough, and you can keep the rest." ”

The third grandmother didn't insist anymore, but accepted it: "There are widows and orphans in several nearby villages, and they have no money, so if they come to ask, the old woman will lend them money." ”

"Brother Qin, you go back and rest first." Gu Jinli saw that Qin Sanlang's tiredness had worsened again, and he couldn't bear to let him stay here to talk to everyone any longer, so let him go back first.

The third grandmother looked at Qin Sanlang, said yes, and said, "San Lang is too tired, hurry back and rest." ”

Qin Sanlang said: "Then I'll go back first." ”

He added: "I have to leave before dawn, and I can't come to see the elders tomorrow." ”

This was said to Gu Jinli, Gu Jinli nodded at him, and said, "Little Brother Qin is also too particular about etiquette, we are all so familiar with each other, there is no need for this, you should go back and rest quickly." ”

I'll wait for you to come to see me, don't worry.

Qin Sanlang understood, smiled at her, and followed Qin Lao home.

……

Qin family, Qin Lao asked Qin Sanlang some things, and after listening to Qin Sanlang's words, he was silent.

After a long time, he said, "Da Chu, will it become like this?" ”

There was sadness in his voice, thinking about how high-spirited the old master was when they fought the world, and once vowed to establish a dynasty that would not be swayed by the wealthy family, so that all the children of the poor family could display their talents, and inherit it for thousands of years.

can look at today's Da Chu again, it's just a joke.
