In the Hanlin Courtyard, a corner of the table.

Li Daguan moved his chair to Han Che: "You came so soon?" Can't heal well? ”

Han Che said: "It's not a big deal. ”

Li Daguan rolled his eyes, and then said in a low voice: "I heard that the emperor wants to issue a decree to increase the salaries of officials, is it true?" ”

He said with an expectant smile on his face, hoping for an affirmative answer.

Yes, the income is too low, and sometimes it is difficult to support the family.

However, this decree involved too much, and Han Che felt that such a bold thing must have been done by Li Zhao.

Wasn't the tax reform also proposed by Li Zhao?

If it was Ah Zhao's proposal, it would definitely not be as simple as thinking about the officials.

Han Che asked, "Pay taxes or raise money, which one do you choose?" ”

Li Daguan smiled: "Of course it's a big deal, work to get money, it should be, just what tax reform is needed, my family's land is barren, and there is not much land in the first place, I would rather not have those lands." ”

That's right, Ah Zhao just wants to win over this kind of people who don't have much land and have dedication to work with her for tax reform.

That's why it's a big deal.

Han Che looked at Li Daguan and smiled: "If you support the emperor in doing things, you will definitely be able to make your wishes come true." ”

Li Daguan's eyes lit up: "You are the emperor's cousin, I believe you ......"

***

Maybe every corner of the yamen is full of such conversations, is it true?

Should it be implemented together with the tax reform?

To support or not to support?

Because Yang Houzhao only issued an order to discuss with the cabinet, and did not implement it immediately.

However, because of the impact of rising salaries, everyone knows that it must be linked to the tax reform, and some people no longer want to resist the tax reform so much as before.

But the people who planned this "conspiracy" could not hear it.

Li Zhao came out of the main hall, shook the arm that was hit by the Queen Mother, and then let out a long breath.

Aunt Qin was waiting outside the hall, and seeing that she was listless, she walked over and whispered, "The Queen Mother is embarrassing you again?" What are you looking for? ”

Li Zhao said: "I must have been looking for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, but I lost my temper because of the heir, and I didn't say anything serious." ”

When it comes to the emperor's heir, Aunt Qin is more anxious than the emperor and queen.

The queen mother will not mention the child by herself if she is fine, and the emperor feels that she has not played enough, and she did not force the queen to talk about the child.

But not mentioning it doesn't mean the problem doesn't exist.

Can the emperor still have children?

Aunt Qin said: "Niangniang, the slave has never dared to ask you, because I don't like it, it's been almost two years...... If you really don't have a baby, will the emperor ......?"

Will you go to another woman to have a baby?

She knew that Yang Houzhao was infertile, but others didn't know.

Besides, in this dynasty, no man is willing to admit that he can't have children.

Those who can't give birth and think about the Fa find a woman to give birth to until they die.

Li Zhao looked at Aunt Qin and smiled, and then said, "Auntie, do you think I mentioned this matter?" ”

Aunt Qin looked very apologetic.

Li Zhao said: "It's okay, I don't mention it's not that I don't dare to face it, but I don't think about it, we all like to say a word, so that everything is fate."

In fact, the translation of this sentence is that life should not look at the past, the past made people depressed, and do not look at the future, the future makes people anxious, live in the present.

It's hard to say, but I've done it now, and I'll talk about it later, I'm very good and happy with Banzai now, that's it. ”

Can a man live like this?

Aunt Qin was puzzled: "Didn't you say to take precautions? ”

Li Zhao's index finger pointed to the sky: "Isn't there still someone who is not as good as the sky?" You can plan for other things, and I think it's best to live and live in the moment. ”

*****

Watching the queen's figure walk away, the queen mother looked back from the window, and then called Wang Yun: "Did you hear the queen and the palace maid muttering something?" ”

Wang Yun shook his head and said: "I didn't hear it too clearly, it seems that the palace maid persuaded the queen to take precautions." ”

The Queen Mother snorted: "What precautions? How to prepare for a rainy day? The mourning family sees that she just can't have children, if she is really so broad-minded and has the world in mind, she should arrange for the emperor to sleep, and the country can be stable after giving birth to the prince, which is the most basic requirement. ”

This kind of thing Wang Yun is not easy to mix, so he lowered his head.

The Queen Mother said again: "I really regret it, I knew that she was still this virtue, and the last time the hundred officials impeached her mourning family, she shouldn't have come forward." ”

After all, at that time, she could find a few chamberlains to give Li Zhao some eye medicine, even if she still couldn't defeat Li Zhao in the end, it would make her restrain herself.

But when he was hugged by his son, he was all gone.

Now because Yang Ning has learned from the past, and no one dares to say that the queen is doing politics, the opportunity cannot be lost, so she missed it.

Regret regret.

"Wang Yun, do you think the mourning family can make up for it?"

Wang Yun thought for a while and said: "Niangniang, in fact, this matter is easy to solve, the queen's mistakes are grasped, it's just, it's just ......"

"Just what? It's just that the emperor is protecting it, so it's not easy to catch? ”

Wang Yun actually didn't want to offend the queen too much, but he wanted to see the queen mother's face to eat.

Because of the queen's affairs, the queen mother now often dislikes him for not doing things well, and he is also very embarrassed.

Shen sighed and said softly: "Niangniang, you are the queen mother, the queen mother has to listen to you no matter what, you are still an elder, really, really...... Aren't you going to be ruthless? ”

The Queen Mother was slightly stunned.

Looking at her scrutinizing sharp eyes, Wang Yun lowered his head suddenly.

The Queen Mother looked at the void in front of her but nodded: "Yes, for the sake of the emperor, the mourning family endures again and again, in fact, the mourning family is the real master of the harem, right?" ”

So to deal with the queen, doesn't the queen mother have many ways?

The queen mother put her hand on the small table, and then stood up vigorously: "This time, the mourning family must not be soft, we must find a way to let the emperor have a queen, if the queen just doesn't know how to lift, then simply abolish her." ”

****

It was already the dead of night, and Yang Houzhao was still reading the classics.

It is rare for him to be so serious, and his heroic youthful temperament is a lot more stable because of this seriousness.

The star-like eyes are sometimes worried, sometimes happy, sometimes regretful, in short, full of emotion.

For the sake of tax reform and the road ahead, the little emperor is studying the lessons of the past and looking at historical materials.

It's not enough to just throw down the three words and ask for directions.

Li Zhao held his hands and looked at him, kept looking at him, looked at him quietly, and a smile subconsciously appeared on the corner of his mouth.

I don't know how long it took for Aunt Qin and Qian Ning to walk in one after the other.

Aunt Qin said: "Long live the lord, Niangniang, use some ginseng soup." ”

Because I use my head too much, I have to make up for my body.

The quiet atmosphere was broken, Yang Houzhao subconsciously twisted his eyebrows, looked up and saw Li Zhao looking at him with appreciation, he suddenly smiled again, and said, "What time is it?" ”

Aunt Qin said: "It's been the third watch, long live the Lord who has been reading every day for the past few days, and he has forgotten the time, what is that idiom?" Then look at Li Zhao.
