At the gate of the Li family, Uncle Biao heard the voice of a woman inside, just on the other side of the door, he frowned and stopped, and after a while, it was Wu and Li Chengcai who came out.

The two of them were stunned when they saw him, and then Wu immediately crossed his waist and said: "I am a foreign surname, I ......."

Uncle Biao covered his ears and said, "If you don't listen, don't listen, Wang Ba recites the scriptures." ”

In the end, Wu and Li Chengcai left angrily.

When the others left, Uncle Biao walked into the courtyard: "Brother Chengyu, where are you?" ”

Li Chengyu heard the voice and hurriedly came out of the west chamber: "Big brother, why are you here today?" ”

There is a pattern for Biao Shu to take jade pieces, and he will bring someone to help, so it is very strange today.

Uncle Biao said: "Let me ask you something first, your mother and your eldest brother came to ask you for money again?" It's been more than a year, and you still haven't given up. ”

Li Chengyu said with a smile: "I can't get money here, but my mother wants to be titled, so she always comes to ask the queen when she will save her relatives." ”

Li Zhao would send someone to contact his family on weekdays, and the imperial court would also come to give gifts during the New Year's holidays, but Li Zhao didn't take care of anything else.

According to the usual practice, the queen's mother's family can be sealed, of course, whether it is allowed or not is another matter, but as a married daughter, how much do you have to contribute to the family?

Uncle Biao knew that Li Zhao was filial, and he said: "Ah Zhao didn't mention it, there must be a reason, don't be sad." ”

Li Chengyu took Uncle Biao's hand and let him into the house, and after entering the house, Li Chengyu talked in detail.

"Big brother, I didn't let Ah Zhao ask me to be sealed, Ah Zhao has nothing in the palace except the emperor's love, and everyone else is excluded, I am a craftsman, what title do I want?

The identities don't match, and it's hard to be a person if you really want to ask for a seal.

The emperor disagrees, you say that the girl is angry?

If the emperor agrees, how will the ministers criticize my daughter?

I can be confused about other things, this matter must not be confused, I can't have it without a title, so she and my eldest brother always come, but I won't compromise. ”

Uncle Biao nodded.

They all know what kind of people are like over there, so they would rather listen to Wang Ba's chanting than listen to Wu's words.

Li Chengyu asked Uncle Biao again: "Big brother, is there something wrong with you coming?" ”

Uncle Biao said: "Dali Temple tried the case, gave birth to a son to sell the nerd, said that it seemed to see the mother, but there were many people, he was crowded, he came back to take a look, it turned out that he didn't come back." ”

Speaking of this, Li Chengyu's face changed slightly, and then he said in a low voice: "If you don't come back, you won't come back, I was terrified when I heard about the impeachment in the last two days, and if I come back and be discovered, it will be another matter."

Ah Zhao has had ideas since she was a child, more than anyone else, and I think the things that others impeached her are true with my eyes closed, and I am really worried, and I don't know what to do. ”

As soon as they entered the palace gate, they were as deep as the sea, and they couldn't do it anymore.

Uncle Biao thought about it, patted Li Chengyu on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, isn't it about tax reform?" I believe that as long as it is Ah Zhao's ghost idea, there is nothing that cannot be done, let's just wait for the news. ”

Li Chengyu nodded helplessly, and that was the only way.

***

The emperor and queen left the palace for a short time, and then hurried back to the palace to get down to business.

Yang Houzhao wants to reform the tax, and he has to deal with Yang Ning before that, Yang Ning's reputation has been stinky, and let the imperial history be broken, Yang Ning was greedy when he was doing the imperial history.

Under careful investigation, it was found that the benefits of personnel entering Beijing had also been accepted this year, and the crime of corruption and bribery was confirmed.

Because his reputation was bad before, everyone else was afraid of being affected by him, and of course no one pleaded for mercy.

Jin Yiwei immediately came to the door and arrested Yang Ning.

After the case is brought in, it is an interrogation, and because there is evidence of corruption and bribery, all family property can be confiscated and beheaded.

However, Yang Ning's life can still be summed up in those two words, it's over.

In the cabinet, Yang Tinghe pushed open Li Yangdong's door: "My lord, you are busy." ”

Li Yangdong was writing something in front of the desk, he didn't look up, he just hummed, Yang Tinghe walked over and saw that it was still the small blue ledger, and Liu Jin added the name of Yang Ning's family behind it.

“……”

Yang Tinghe was looking at Master Li's complexion, his face was ruddy, and although he was writing slowly, he was strong and powerful.

What does it mean? The bad smile was held in my heart, and I was indifferent to it, and I was in a good mood.

Yang Tinghe looked at it for a while and smiled: "My lord, do you know how Lu Hong sentenced Yang Ning?" ”

Li Yangdong finished writing, raised his head and said with a smile: "Confiscated property and imprisoned." ”

Yang Tinghe found a chair opposite Li Yangdong and sat down, and then said: "Just say that this confiscated property, I just went to count it, and the little official told me that everything else was collected, and only ten acres of land were left, what do you mean by this?" ”

Li Yangdong stood up straight and thought about it, then looked at Yang Tinghe.

Yang Tinghe said: "No, the tax reform said, more than ten acres of tax, Yang Ning's family has 100 hectares of fertile land, all of which have been confiscated and distributed to tenants, leaving ten acres of land to tell us that tax reform is imperative." ”

Then if anyone opposes it and thinks that he has more land at home, then the excess will be confiscated first, and then the rest will be taxed.

Thinking about it, after this means of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger, even if someone opposes it, he doesn't dare to get it on the surface, right?

Li Yangdong raised his eyebrows, and then showed a meaningful smile: "Our saint is really getting more and more saintly." ”

Yang Tinghe's main concern is tax reform, whether Li Yangdong will help the emperor in the end.

He asked: "My lord, the emperor is true, but such a rash tax reform, everyone is holding back the bad and not saying anything, once it is implemented, there will be a lot of mistakes, we are auxiliary ministers, we can't help but guard against it." ”

If this is a suggestion made by political enemies, they are eager to implement it immediately, and then the world will be in chaos, and it will be difficult to see who ends badly.

But it is the little emperor's own idea, when the courtiers have to weigh the point, with Yang Ning's experience, everyone will not say it, but when it is implemented, it is lazy and perfunctory, and no matter how good the system is, it can only make trouble.

It's not that they haven't promulgated good policies, but they don't have good people who implement them.

Li Yangdong still had such a leisurely smile on his face, and said with the account book in his hand: "You didn't listen to me carefully, I said that the saint is becoming more and more holy, why?" ”

Pointing directly to the account book and said: "I believe that the emperor still has a trick, wait, you and I understand that it is not reasonable to be fast, and the emperor obviously understands it now, such an emperor who dares to forge ahead and innovate, even if there are difficulties in the middle, you and I will help him, right?" ”

Therefore, Li Yangdong is determined to follow the emperor to reform.

Yang Tinghe didn't make a special statement, nodded and smiled: "Then let's wait and see how the emperor subdues those people who don't say it on their faces, but have their own little Jiujiu in their hearts." ”

Li Yangdong raised his eyebrows: "Okay, I think you will be able to see it soon." ”
