Chapter 388: He Deserves to Be Remembered
"But because there is too much Su Mu out at once, there is no need for so many dyes in the dye rooms in the capital, and many officials can't sell it when they get it, so they can't exchange it for money at all!" In the palace, the imperial concubine said eloquently.
Seeing that the emperor didn't say anything, she said again: "And as far as the concubines know, because of the trouble made by the Marquis of Anning, she sued the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother should not have made such a big fuss about Shen Tianlan, and the majesty of the court was lost, so those princes' families still received silver, and only the civil officials were still sending Su Mu!"
Saintly, most of the officials do not rely on salaries to eat, this kind of people must be well-connected, their sumu can't be sold, but some people will charge their sumu at a higher price than the market price in order to get a kup.
On the contrary, those officials who really rely on Yulu to eat, no one bother Su Mu can't be sold, there is a family surnamed Tong The first month of Su Mu has not been sold, and the second month is Su Mu, his family of four, except for the boss who is taking the exam in his hometown, the rest of the people are starving to death, so this still seems to be useful, in fact, it is to transfer the contradiction to others, Taicang's silver still has not been changed, but people have died! ”
Emperor Wan Hong nodded!
Shen family, Shen Tianlan thought of the Tong adults he had hurt deeply, and he said gloomily: "Second brother, you don't know, but I don't feel that I am at fault at all, I just sacrificed a few people to let the court get through the difficulties, but in fact, I was wrong, the crisis of the court is that the rich are not benevolent to the rich, I have not changed this status quo, and I have added firewood for them!" ”
Shen Xiuwen's heart cooled, in this way, Li Guangchen was right.
They claim to have made a lot of contributions to the people of the country, but they are only sacrificing the interests of one part of the people to achieve the other part.
It's just a matter of how many people are sacrificed.
If there are fewer people, it is merit, and if there are more people, it is passing, but all beings are equal!
I originally hoped that my father's exploits would move God, but it didn't work?
Shen Xiuwen asked tentatively, "Dad, are you still tidying up?" ”
Shen Tianlan's eyes showed that he was not admitting defeat, and shouted: "I don't believe it, it can't be wrong to measure the land and implement a whip law, right?!" ”
Shen Xiuwen cried a little, it won't be wrong, it won't be wrong.
In the palace, Zhao Jinshui presented two bows of different sizes to the emperor, who played with them in his hand and asked puzzledly: "What's the mystery of this?!" ”
The reason why the imperial concubine didn't say good things about Shen Tianlan was because he had been in power for so long, and the matter of establishing the crown prince had not been resolved, if Shen Tianlan went down, this matter would be on the agenda, and she couldn't wait for her son.
She smiled: "One big and one small, the measurement is not accurate, but the money is collected according to the number of bows, it must be the method that the officials below came up with, to use a big bow when they go to their own homes, and to use a small bow when they go to their own homes, or use a big bow on their own land, so that the land is not enough, and they use small bows when they are apportioned to the poor people's homes, so in fact, the tax is more, but the original people who don't have to pay it still pay less, but the silver is distributed to the people who shouldn't pay so much, and something will happen in the long run!" ”
Emperor Wan Hong's face instantly darkened, touched his knees and said: "It turns out that he is not as invincible as I thought, it seems that the matter of measuring the land should be put on hold!" ”
Shen family, the more Shen Tianlan thought about himself, the more incompetent he became, he lay on the bed dejectedly, and the next moment, his ass seemed to be unstoppable!
"It's providence!" Shen Tianlan felt a little dizzy, he waved his hand and said: "Second child, don't struggle, my whole life is for Taicang, Taicang, not for the people at all, no wonder a little girl doesn't care about me!"
That's it! Find a way to get your eldest brother and your mother back, and I'll try to see them one last time. ”
……
……
The street in front of Shen Tianlan's house is called Mao'er Hutong, and it is already late at night, but there are still several houses on the street whose doors are open.
An old man stood at the door and looked at the door, Qi Zhao happened to see it when he passed by, he asked people to stop the sedan chair and asked, "Old man, why haven't you slept so late?" ”
The old man pointed in the direction of the Shen Mansion and said: "Childe doesn't know, Lord Shen is not in good health these days, I have heard about the old man, and the old man is very worried about him!" ”
Shen Tianlan can still make people worry, Qi Zhao asked curiously, "Why are you so worried about Lord Shen?" ”
The old man said: "One year, the first emperor chose boys and girls in alchemy, and my daughter was almost arrested by the government, and my son resisted because he offended the people in the yamen and was locked up.
Those black-hearted soap officials, they come to the door every day and lie to me that they can save my son, today they want me five taels of silver, tomorrow they want me ten taels of silver, within half a month, all the ancestral property in my family has been sold, and this has not rescued people, of course, seeing that I have no money, they will not come to the door.
I almost couldn't survive because I was empty, but fortunately, Lord Shen knew what was going on, let my son go, and helped me return to my ancestral business, giving me twenty taels of silver to live.
Lord Shen is the great benefactor of our family, he can't have an accident, if he has an accident, there will be no such good officials in the world! ”
The old man began to cry as he spoke, and the big tree walked to the sedan chair and looked at Qi Zhao.
Qi Zhao sighed in his heart, Shen Tianlan has eliminated the shortcomings in his life, has the courage to explore new policies, and has made so many efforts to fill the treasury, but he is sick, and no one except a few of his friends misses him.
His friend may just be a family affection, but he can't help an old man with a show of his hands, this is the real goodness, or the things he sees are different depending on his position, so he is remembered unforgettable.
Qi Zhao suddenly said to the old man: "Thank you, old man!" ”
The old man was stunned for a moment and asked, "Why do you thank me?" Who are you? ”
Qi Zhao said: "It doesn't matter who I am, but I thank you for being so late, and I am still thinking about Lord Shen, Lord Shen has worked hard all his life and has merits, but his mistakes must not erase his merits, a talent like him needs to be cared about by others, and he is worth worrying about him." ”
The old man asked excitedly: "Listening to what Gongzi said, you know that Gongzi is not an ordinary person, do you also care about Lord Shen very much, how is he now, will he get better?" ”
Qi Zhao pointed in the direction of the city gate and said, "It depends on whether his wife is willing to forgive him!" ”
As he was talking, the guards who had gone to hear the news came back and said, "Your Highness, the city gate has been opened, and it was Feng Jin who asked someone to open it, and he went to the palace to ask for a holy decree!" ”
Qi Zhao nodded and said, "It's still his old partner who cares about him." ”
The auspicious class was singing in the hall, Bai Zhanchen had been standing at the door staring at the charming people on the stage, and suddenly his subordinates came over and said: "All the vicinity of the Shen family has been searched, except for the third prince, there are no suspicious people, the auspicious class is cleaner, they are all old drama fans, and there are no new arrivals." ”
Then there is no search in Huangjue Temple.
