Chapter 166: Heart-wrenching Things

In fact, Yang Yu had asked Sima Xun'er before, so many people died in the assassination more than three years ago! Did he find a way to check the clues after he came back, and who was the mastermind?

Sima Xun'er told Yang Yu that he had informed Prime Minister Yu of the incident when he returned to the capital, because that assassination involved his daughter, Yu Shi Niang, and he was not sure who the assassination was aimed at at at that time.

And Princess Yunhua is likely to be implicated, and it is not so easy to investigate this matter thoroughly, the imperial court sent a special person to investigate this matter, and the corpses that were brought back at this moment were also specially screened, but there was no result, and there was no clue who was behind the scenes.

In fact, everyone knows in their hearts that among Yu Guozhong's political enemies, who is the person who wants to deal with him the most? Everyone knows that after this incident, Yu Shiniang was asked to avoid showing her head, and Princess Yunhua Sima Xun'er, for unnecessary trouble, even Hua Wuyang was talked to by his boss alone, and asked him to take people to the Zhongnan Fortress on the western border to go to the southern fortress for training.

Yang Yu considered that Sima Yu was young after all, obviously immature politically, in addition to pretending to be stupid, he also needed to build his own strength, and politically he also needed the support of strong allies, so Yu Guozhong was the best candidate!

On the one hand, Yu Guozhong's blocking in front has relatively reduced his own danger, but for the sake of long-term consideration, Sima Yu still needs to do everything possible to save Yu Guozhong! At present, both of these aspects are very difficult!

Why did Sima Lie can't help jumping directly to the front in the back to directly target Yu Guozhong? Sima Yu told Yang Yu that it was because Yu Guozhong was going to continue to implement the new law in Dajin next!

The purpose of this new law is mainly to reduce taxes! Of course, this is also a blessing for the people of the Great Jin Dynasty, but in order to balance revenue and expenditure, Yu Guozhong's new law has a very important decree, that is, the law of equalizing land!

What is the "land equalization law" is actually that all the fertile fields that can produce two seasons of grain registered in the system of the Dajin Kingdom need to be registered and the identity of the land must be registered, and the identity of the land must be confirmed, and when the tax is paid, the tax is paid directly by the owner according to the ownership of each mu of land, rather than by the current cultivator as before.

To say that the land of the Great Jin Dynasty is vast, and there are basically a lot of good fields, but these lands are basically taken over by some wealthy and big families! Only a small number of rich peasant strata own a small amount of land.

In the past, when rents were paid, all the current cultivators of the land had to bear the taxes due to the land, but the wealthy families themselves did not have to pay taxes at all because they did not cultivate the land themselves!

Although the land equalization law in the new law seems to have reduced the taxes of the tenants who rent and raise land, it has been collected from the names of the wealthy and large households, and according to the calculation, the taxes will not only not decrease, but will probably increase!

However, this will undoubtedly touch the fundamental interests of those big landlords, big tycoons, princes and nobles, and ministers of power in the court, and it is inevitable that they will be resisted by the other side! However, Yu Guozhong did not listen to the dissuasion and insisted on carrying it out, and Sima Lie, as the representative of these opposition forces, naturally couldn't help jumping up first. 100 Literature

At the beginning of this matter, Yu Guozhong also received the support of the Empress Dowager Xie, but the development of the matter made the Xie Group also begin to suffer huge loss of interests, and the Empress Dowager Xie began to be under pressure!

Of course, the little emperor Sima Yu doesn't know too much about these things, and the pressure involved in his mother naturally can't fall on him, but the Sima family still has a large line in the royal family, and these people are also vested interests, so they undoubtedly have to stand on Sima Lie's side at this time!

Everything Yang Yu has learned is naturally shallower, everything is what Sima Yu told him, and as a cultivator, he should not have participated in the struggle for secular imperial power, what he only thinks about now is how to avenge these people in Huaishu Village, Ximen Urn City and Storm Seaside Fishing Village!

The small venue where the Peony Flower Festival is held in the Imperial Palace is naturally different from the natural harmony of the people, but it is more grand and gorgeous.

First of all, it is the program of flower appreciation, this simple, all kinds of different varieties of peony flowers, these nobles have already seen it, just go through the motions, and then there are banquets, singing and dancing performances, the emperor toasts, hundreds of officials congratulate, and then foreign envoys meet, offer gifts, and the emperor on behalf of the Jin Dynasty court to thank and return gifts.

The song and dance performance is naturally the court song and dance of the royal family of the Great Jin Dynasty, and most of the dancers have been trained to rehearse! The majestic dance music, the pleasing dance of the hundred people and the flowers and gods! It is carried out on the temporary stage on the square, surrounded by blooming peony flowers, and the banquet table of the ministers of the big banquet.

Juggling is selected by the prefectures, counties and counties in various places, stilts, colored balls, aerial rope climbing, stool skills, top bowls, etc., these skills are far away in the folk inheritance, it is said that there are also artists in the Han Dynasty and other places.

Then there is the emperor's toast, although the little emperor is still a puppet, but he is still the emperor after all, stand up and pretend to raise a glass to the heavens and the earth, and respect the ministers! This still needs to read some sacrifices and toasts that have been written a long time ago! Then the hundred officials leave the table and kneel down to worship the mountain and shout long live!

Sima Yu's performance at this time was very eye-catching, because he had always been very interested in the singing, dancing and vaudeville performances just now, and then dumped those miscellaneous artists into his dormitory, and specially found someone to arrange a place for them to live, so that they could perform for themselves in the palace, so that the joke would not spread out of the palace.

But now he has to sit on the dragon chair and wait, and the envoys of the Han and the Great Zhou will meet him below, and also offer gifts, he needs to say a few words of encouragement and return the gift! Of course, all this was arranged by the Empress Dowager Xie beside him.

The envoy of the Han Dynasty is an old man, the corners of this person's eyes are full of wrinkles, and the smile on his face knows that he is an old fritter at a glance, but the envoy of the Great Zhou Dynasty is the servant of the Ministry of Rites of their court, and he is a big official from Sanpin!

In terms of the official system, the most advanced at present is the Great Zhou Dynasty! Of course, this is also despised by the Great Han and the Great Jin, because they are both the system of three princes and nine secretaries, while the Great Zhou Dynasty is the system of six ministries.

After these two people stepped forward to offer gifts, they handed over their respective credentials, and finally explained that they came this time to propose marriage to the eldest princess of the Great Jin Dynasty! This is something that makes Sima Xun'er worry, when she sat on the chair, her face immediately turned white!
