Chapter 381: Head to Head (1)

"What method? Why don't you tell us about it? The captain encouraged him to speak out. Flash Dance.

Regardless of whether Songqi's proposal can help him solve the problem, he is very happy about Songqi's recent changes in his heart, and he is worried that this change is only temporary, and he can't help but feel a little uneasy.

"Father, don't be impatient, Rong Erchen said slowly."

Gasuo nodded at him, and said unhurriedly: "After nearly two months of investigation by Erchen, it was found that the gap between the rich and the poor in Weitou is much higher than that of other countries, take our neighbor Loulan as an example, their country has changed a lot in recent years, especially after the king of Loulan ascended the throne, several laws introduced vigorously support the poor people and help them get out of poverty, and our poor Weitou occupy one-third of the population, and if we let it continue, it will cause an uncontrollable situation!" The reduction of taxes is urgent, but this regulation is only for those who are poor and poor, and the rest of those who can afford it are to be handed over to the treasury on time in accordance with the laws of the state. ”

"Your Highness means to reduce the taxes of the poor people, and we and ordinary families have to pay a lot of money truthfully? We are all the people of the captain, and such a treaty is too unfair! ”

As soon as Cassel's suggestion was made, it immediately aroused strong resentment from the ministers.

In fact, the income of the officials is not very high, but the money they collect privately is far more than a year's salary, and no dynasty in the past dynasties can completely avoid a corrupt official, appropriate greed, the king will turn a blind eye and let them go, but the insatiable greed affects the operation of the country, so you can no longer pretend not to see!

The money in the purses of these ministers could not be spent for several lifetimes, and they actually counted dozens of taels with poor people who couldn't even afford to eat. Flash Dance.

King Weitou wanted to punish these powerful people a long time ago, but it was inconvenient for them to speak because of their power in the court, and now the fifth prince pointed out the harm they did to Weitou, and he agreed with Songqi's idea.

"Songqi is right, the gap between the rich and the poor is getting bigger and bigger year by year, the rich and powerful are getting richer and richer, and the poor are still poor and can't eat, the rich are not short of dozens of taels of silver, but these dozens of taels are like a fantasy for the poor, and subtracting the taxes of the poor is a good way to win the hearts of the people."

King Weitou agreed with the fifth prince's suggestion, and some of the ministers continued to refute when they heard that their faces were completely darkened: "Looking at the overall situation, the prince's proposal is reasonable, but please think about it carefully, if the imperial court only exempts some people from taxes, how will the rest of the people react when they hear it?" They will definitely feel that the current Holy Lord is extremely confused, and the same captain's people are treated differently, I am afraid that it will arouse the dissatisfaction in the hearts of the people, and the contradictions will increase and be harmful and useless! ”

It sounds good to think about the people, it is nothing more than to consider their own interests, a few dozen taels in their eyes is just money for ordering two dishes, but they are not convinced, why do others have to pay taxes if they don't give them?

Of course, this kind of selfish people only account for some of them, and some people also agree with the proposal of the fifth prince: "The left squire is wrong, who said that the imperial court did not treat everyone equally?" Of course, different groups of people should be treated differently, otherwise why divide the poor into the rich? The prince is merciful, for the sake of the poor people, give them a way to live, and the rich people are not short of that bit of silver, why bother with the poor? Don't say dozens of taels, which of the people present is not generous and generous, how did they come here to argue about the long and the short? By the way, if the minister didn't recognize the wrong person, a few days ago, you went to Xiangyun Tower, and did not hesitate to reprimand three hundred taels to invite a dancing girl to dance, why did you take out three hundred taels yesterday, but you can't take out dozens of taels today? ”

The person on the left is serious on the surface, but he is extremely frivolous behind his back, and it is still not enough to ask for more than a dozen concubines at home.

In fact, it is normal for men to go to fireworks places, and they usually talk about these taboo topics, but everyone is not used to seeing his hypocritical face, so they deliberately say it to make him embarrassed.

It's one thing to say it in private, but it's another thing to say it in public, the left waiter felt that his cheeks were burning hot, and the eyes of the people around him looked at him with disdain.

I wanted to oppose it to the end, but I was pinched in the underbelly, and the left squire had to be unwilling to brush up his sleeves and return to his original position, and the king of the captain took the opportunity to say when he saw this: "The prince's proposal has been considered for a long time before, and these ideas he put forward have solved many problems faced by the captain. ”

Today's prince, tomorrow is the king of a country, looking at the harem, there are fewer threats such as the eldest prince and the third prince, and the remaining young and underage princes are not a threat to the prince for the time being, except for him, there is no more suitable person to take on this important task, and the ministers want to persuade them, but they can't find a reasonable excuse.

And recently the prince of Songqi has changed a lot, pacifying the rebellion of the third prince, and coming up with a good way to govern the country to solve the problems that have plagued everyone for a long time, the ministers who originally questioned him, can't help but change their bad impression of Songqi, and began to look forward to his change.

The pine flag that Gasuo pretended to be won over many people's hearts in just one day, and when the early dynasty ended, Gasuo went to the Imperial History Mansion to find Daxian on the pretext of preparing to ascend the throne tomorrow.

He pretended to be Songqi to bring down the situation, and he only needed the enthronement ceremony to truly grasp the royal power, and at that time, he Gasuo would have the ability to seek revenge on the king of Loulan.

As for the matter of seeking revenge on the king of Loulan, Gasuo wanted to take advantage of the people in the captain's head to find an appropriate time to capture him alive, although he knew that it would be difficult, but he could not do it if he wanted to let the enemy go.

Even if King Loulan has three heads and six arms, he is always at a disadvantage when he is in the head of the captain, otherwise it will be almost impossible to do it again when he returns in a few days.

Gasuo was going out of the palace to discuss with Daxian about this matter, but as soon as the carriage left the palace gate, he was stopped by a group of people.

"The Holy Lord has prepared a table, good wine and good food at the post station, and I want to invite His Highness to come over and catch up with the past, if Your Highness is free, you might as well go over with your humble position?"

Although it was an inquiring tone, in fact, he had no intention of asking for his opinion at all, and Aji and his party rode horses to block the way out of the palace, forcing him to agree if he did not agree.

About the unhappiness of the prince of Songqi and the king of Loulan, Gasuo understands most of it, this time the king of Loulan made a special trip to find Songqi to get together, it is by no means as simple as saying that he said about the past, he failed to kill people last time, this time, the king of Loulan is likely to do it by talking about the past!

If you change to a real pine flag, you don't dare to go to this Hongmen banquet with no return, but for Gasuo, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to get close to King Loulan, and there may be the possibility of avenging her mother.

"The Holy Lord of Loulan personally invited, Songqi is honored, of course I want to go."

Gassel nodded and motioned for his retinue to follow in Aji's footsteps!
