Chapter 143: New Law Experiment

"Governance experience, don't be afraid of the king's jokes when you say it."

Before he came, Ji Chang had done a lot of homework on Di Xin, and he knew that it was useless to prevaricate and not say it, and it was easy to annoy the other party, so after a little thought in his mind, he answered.

"The minister has no great wisdom, but can only start from the place where the people need it, encourage farming, trade with foreign countries, reduce taxes, and so on."

What Ji Chang said was very simple, word by word, without dragging mud and water, many of the people in this hall who were originally watching the drama were all upright.

For the princes who came to the court, they had done their homework beforehand. So far, what Ji Bohou said does not seem to have been implemented in Xiqi.

But the idea is very good. If so......

Thinking of this, everyone's eyes were all focused on King Xu. Then Gu shook his head quickly, the tax or something, the king will not increase it, even if it is good, it will be reduced.

It is estimated that this plan will not be implemented until a certain prince ascends the throne.

However, the king has two sons under his knees, and the character of the eldest prince and the second prince are relatively mild, so they may be able to give it a try when the time comes.

'Pop', 'pop', 'pop'

While everyone was thinking, Shang Rong, who was standing on the side, received the eyes of the king of Xu, and walked out with applause in his hands, attracting everyone's attention.

"What Xibohou said is very true,"

Shang Rong walked out, stood on the same level as Ji Chang, and bowed to the king sitting above.

"The king, the minister thinks that this move can greatly improve the lives of the people and enhance the people's sense of belonging to the dynasty, if it can be implemented in the country, the 'rumors' about the king outside will definitely be self-defeating."

The further Shang Rong said, the higher the pitch. Hearing this, all the courtiers, except for not daring, all lowered their heads.

The prime minister can be said to be the most fearless of the civil servants who are not afraid of death. Every day, they admonished the king, and they also admired Shang Rong's courage.

Every time the king hears it, his face is black and angry, I don't know what happened this time? I'm afraid that in a fit of anger, I will implicate the princes of the Quartet.

What the courtiers could think of, the princes in the palace naturally thought of it. It's just that they don't mix in the song every day, so it's not as serious as they think.

They who manage the county on a day-to-day basis are still clear about rumors. Moreover, the king of the Emperor gave orders, layer by layer, and naturally there may be many theories.

Yes, what should they be or what they should be, their demeanor has not changed, but their faces have become a little more serious.

"What the Prime Minister says is exactly what the widow thinks,"

The king took in the performance of everyone in the palace at a glance, and slowly spoke, "This move is beneficial to the people and strengthens the country, no wonder Ji Bohou has received so much love from his people." ”

The voice fell, and the hall was silent for a few seconds, always feeling that there was some auditory hallucination just now, and it was definitely not their king who could say such things.

As soon as this thought drifted through the minds of the ministers, the voice of the king of the Emperor sounded again in the hall.

"According to the Prime Minister, it is naturally good to implement this move in the country. But if the widow remembers correctly, what Ji Bohou thought didn't seem to be implemented in Xiqi, but what should not be pointed out? ”

The king changed his words and threw the question to Ji Chang.

"Back to the king's words, this move has actually been implemented in Xiqi, but because the taxes are too heavy, it is too difficult to achieve the goal."

Ji Chang was very helpless when he said this, his tone was heavy, his back was straightened, and his eyes were looking directly at the king of Xu. Just wait for him to say, 'Why are taxes heavy?' and then go back and answer.

"Oh? The taxes were heavy, so why didn't Xibohou reduce the taxes of his people? ”

The king looked down and asked.

“……”

Ji Chang was originally waiting for the king to speak, and then asked for advice on reducing taxes, but who knew that the king would come to such a sentence, and swallowed back silently when he came to his mouth.

The mouth is open there, closed is not, open is not, but it is a little embarrassing.

"The well-being of the people and the strength of the country are also the goal of the widows."

The king looked down and admired Ji Chang's old choked hand before he spoke slowly.

"However, the song is so big that the implementation must be heavier than that of the county, but at present, there has not been a successful implementation of the county and has a look, so this move cannot be used at will."

"This method, since it is Ji Bohou's law of governing the county, then it is most appropriate for Ji Bohou to implement it in Xiqi, if it works, then Chaoge Chao and the rest of the counties can follow suit."

This means that Xiqi should be used as a test subject for the implementation of the new law. Although I don't know how the king of Xuan suddenly approved Ji Bohou's plan, but the princes in the palace have no objection to the successful use of the plan.

At the same time, the impression of King Su in my heart has improved a lot. Rumors, sure enough, are still crowded. At most, the king is more violent.

Ji Chang had no objection to King Zhou's statement, that is, this tax, Chaoge's requirements were too high, and just as he was about to open his mouth to talk about this matter, King Zhou spoke again.

"Because the first to implement this plan must have consumed the most mind. Therefore, the people of Xiqi were pardoned and exempted from taxes for three years, and during these three years, the income of the people of Xiqi could be owned by themselves. ”

Speaking of this, many ministers of the court and the interior became agitated. Xiqi is not a small county, and three years of tax revenue is not a small amount!

The King had been paying attention to the reactions of the people below, taking in their performance. The exemption from taxes would cause the courtiers to be agitated, which he did not expect.

However, thinking about the amount that I collect every year, it can be said that it is a great exploitation of the county, and the sum of these three years is not ordinarily large.

In this way, the courtier's reaction is normal. Especially the rest of the county marquis, the emotions that flashed in their eyes were also taken into the eyes of the king.

Anyway, everyone's reaction really made him very satisfied.

said that he was reborn, but there were a few more curves in his mind. It is precisely because he has always advocated force that no one thought that he would cheat people here.

Thinking of this, the king shook his head invisibly, and instead of appeasing the ministers, he sat on the dragon chair and snorted coldly.

For a while, the soles of everyone's feet were cold, and a heavy evil aura came to their faces, and their hearts, which were still restless, were suddenly as quiet as chickens.

During this time, the king was a little gentle, and they unconsciously relaxed in the court. The nerves of everyone were tight, waiting for the king to write down.

The court was quiet all of a sudden, and there was only the occasional rumor of the wind.

The king sat on it, looked at the crowd for a while, and when he was sure that no one was agitated, he spoke.

"I don't know what Ji Bohou thinks?"

After being quiet, he was named, even after living for so many years, Ji Chang's little heart couldn't help but beat a little more.
