was stopped by this self-proclaimed Di 'girl' named Ye Na to give away a horse, and Wei Changying and Shen Zangfeng failed to take Shen Shuyan out of the city to play that day. It's not that they were entangled by this Di 'girl', but without saying a word or two, the sweaty Diecui guard actually galloped over in person, and before he could salute, he handed over the eight-hundred-mile urgent document and looked at Shen Zangfeng.

Shen Zangfeng knew that the matter was not small and should not be opened in front of everyone, so he got off the horse and boarded the car before opening a list.

At this look, Shen Zangfeng's face was instantly blue!

Because of the limited space in the carriage, Wei Changying was hiding Shen Shuyan's eyes to prevent her from peeking at the contents of the documents, lest this niece and daughter, who could never forget ten lines at a glance, see the secret, but she was young, and rashly leaked her 'exposed' and mistaken business. Only then did he coax Shen Shuyan to close his eyes, turned his head and saw that her husband's expression was wrong, and seeing that he didn't mean to avoid himself, he glanced sideways and upward...... At this look, she was also taken aback, and raised her sleeves to cover her mouth in time, so as not to exclaim.

Until Shen Zangfeng ordered someone to accept the red horse "Chiyan" that Ye Na rode over, and ordered the carriage and horse to return to the other courtyard, Wei Changying hugged Shen Shuyan tightly, and was a little in a dream: although he had known that it was not peaceful today, Shen Zangfeng also clearly said in his 'private' that Wei Zuo had declined...... can be used as a famous "door" noble "girl", and married to the "door" of the family, raised in the splendid bush all her life, this sign of the death of the country appeared, and she couldn't help but be frightened.

- Yanzhou people's uprising!

Before the first emperor, because Emperor Xizong liked to work hard and indulged in "obsession" with beauty and "sex", in order to settle the harem beauties of tens of thousands at that time, he built several large buildings to increase the palace and excavate forest ponds. Officials at all levels who were ordered to pay tribute to build palaces, forests, ponds, and money seized the opportunity to enrich their 'private' pockets, and even though ordinary rich families were looted several times, they fell into poverty and disease...... The world of Dawei is gradually becoming a little 'chaotic'.

Later, when Emperor Yizong was the first emperor, there were several years of political clarity, and the situation was slightly reversed.

That's because Yizong was young when he succeeded to the throne, and his mother, the Empress Dowager Gongmin, was born in a poor family, and had a deep understanding of the sufferings of the Shu people. However, although Empress Dowager Gongmin sympathized with Li Min, she was very fond of this only son because she only had one son under her knees.

Yizong has followed in his father's footsteps since he was twelve or thirteen years old, and likes to have fun but hates politics. Empress Dowager Gongmin persuaded a few words, and Yizong deduced that the royal body was not safe, and the Empress Dowager was distressed, so she let him go. When Yizong grew up, he threw himself into the pleasure of frolicking and enjoying himself, and he had no intention of taking care of the world at all.

At the beginning, there was the Empress Dowager Gongmin who took care of him, but the Empress Dowager was not from a high background, although she sharpened her 'shrewdness' in the palace, but when it comes to the means of governance, how can she compare with the profound scholars? In addition, the queen mother promoted and reused many commoners at that time, and many concubines from low backgrounds were also included in the harem, which aroused the vigilance of the scholars. After some secret fighting, the queen mother finally retreated to the harem because she did not get the support of Yizong at a critical time, and the scholars took over the country.

In order to consolidate the authority in their hands, the scholars changed their methods to coax Yizong to have fun. How can the Son of Heaven have the same fun as ordinary people? There is not a single one who does not want silver! Originally, the Xizong Association had already emptied the treasury, and when it came to Yizong, it was even worse, and even many of the border troops had to be dismissed if they could not pay the money. Even though the nobles were wealthy, it was impossible for them to move their own treasury for the pleasures of the saints.

Then you can only play the idea of taxation.

The taxes are heavy again and again, such as today, you can see a nest of bandits of all sizes in ten miles and dozens of miles, including Caojiabao in Xiliang, who will be 'forced' to be cornered, so they have to do business without capital.

At that time, Emperor Yizong was playing with many beauties in the harem and got carried away, and the scholars tacitly bought the palace people to keep them from knowing. After a few days, the Empress Dowager Gongmin knew and hurried over to remind her son, but ...... Where did Emperor Yizong, who was bent on pleasure, have the heart to investigate to the end?

He casually called a minister to the harem and asked: "I heard that you have repeatedly increased taxes, such as today, the people are already struggling to make a living?" ”

The minister is also a member of the scholar clan, and he knows that the Queen Mother is here, and it is easy to seize the power of the prison country from the hands of the Queen Mother, and he must not let the Empress Dowager Gongmin make a comeback. He replied without hesitation: "This is impossible, although the ministers dare not compare themselves with many virtuous ministers since ancient times, but they have always been a model for the demeanor of their predecessors, admiring the sages every day, and willing to bow down for the saints and die!" How could you do something to shake the community? Who did the Holy One listen to that the taxes are heavy now? ”

Yizong was not stupid enough to betray his mother, and said, "I just heard about it by chance, you don't have to care who it is." Let's talk about why some people say that? ”

The minister said, "If you want the minister, please ask the Holy Lord for forgiveness: it is not surprising that the minister thinks this." Because since the Shang Dynasty cast Lutai and favored Daji and the Shang Dynasty, as long as the mortal lord proposed to build a beautiful palace or a tall building, or a Na'vi people, there will always be some people who will resolutely oppose it, thinking that this can show that their virtue can be comparable to that of Bigan and others. In fact, many courtiers and wealthy families often build and replace the forest pond pavilions, but few people will say that this is because the lord is extremely noble, so he is jealous! ”

Speaking of this, the minister sighed, "Speaking of which, most of the palaces and pavilions that the Holy Lord lives and enjoys now are left behind by the previous emperor. And the first emperor only saw that the palace left by Taizu and Taizong was dilapidated, so he built it on a large scale, but it attracted countless people to oppose it! So much so that if you live here now, there are always some people who can't see it...... Tell you that the purpose of paying heavy taxes and making the people miserable is not to hope that the Holy Lord will enjoy less and spend more money to comfort the people? But as far as the minister knows, if the wind and rain are smooth year after year, the harvest is full of hoarding, and the taxes are merely paid, the people can afford it very easily. It is impossible not to supply the Holy Majesty's current offerings! ”

Yizong enjoys it and hates suffering, and the minister's words can be regarded as speaking to his heart-if he follows the words of the Empress Dowager Gongmin, wouldn't he, the master, want to reduce his treatment? Yi Zongda is unwilling in his heart! After waiting for the minister to leave, he invited the queen mother Empress Gongmin to come to her, and politely rejected her suggestion to let herself come to the court in person and see the situation, and said: "The ministers of the former dynasty are all capable and loyal people, and the queen mother has been 'worried' for her sons all these years, and now it is time to take a break, don't always listen to the rumors of the palace people, and blame the loyalty." ”

Such a foolish son! Empress Dowager Gongmin almost didn't faint!

Yizong is like this, Empress Dowager Gongmin knew that her son had no hope, just like the previous Queen Gu, she put her hopes on her grandson. Today's saint is not the eldest among the princes of Yizong, and the reason why he can inherit the throne is that his biological mother Deng's status in the palace is not very high, and his background is not as good as the queen of Yizong and the four concubines of Guishu and virtuous.

The Empress Dowager Gongmin, who lost to the Shi clan when she seized power, because Yizong did not have only one son of Yizong like Yizong, even if she was born poor, she became the queen mother, and had to choose the prince born of the 'daughter' of the Shi clan as the prince, but she also chose a biological mother who was born and favored the Deng family who was relatively the worst, and personally raised the current saint.

Under the influence of the Empress Dowager Gongmin, before the ascendation of the throne and in the first few years of his accession to the throne, he was ambitious to cleanse the 'dang' Yu Nei and revitalize the Great Wei. However, it was easy to go from Concubine Deng to the Empress Dowager Deng's Queen Mother, but she didn't think so!

There were tens of thousands of people in the palace during the reign of the Emperor, and there were thousands of concubines with titles and positions, and many of them had never seen the Emperor in their lives, or they were left out in the cold to death after only serving once. Although the harem at the time of Yizong was not as overcrowded as that of his father, there were hundreds of formal concubines. Empress Dowager Deng is nothing in terms of birth, position, and favor, so she gave birth to a prince, and she is the 'daughter' of the scholar family, and she lives a salty and indifferent life in the palace.

Once Yizong died, her mother became the queen mother, but she held her breath to enjoy the days when no one suppressed her and she didn't need to be careful!

Empress Dowager Deng is not very interested in controlling the government, the key is that the Empress Dowager does not have the ability to listen to the government. But the Queen Mother is very interested in Garn's mother's family.

This world is so big, the six valves in the sea, the major families, and each other's spheres of influence are tacitly understood. If the Empress Dowager Deng wants to promote the Deng family, she has to test, compromise, and make an agreement with the Valves and the families...... The key is that the Empress Dowager's maiden family is also a scholar family, and the Holy Lord's 'desire' to emulate her grandmother Empress Dowager Gongmin suppresses the power of the scholar clan by vigorously promoting the common people and recruiting the 'daughters' of the common people, and she can't pass the test here in the Empress Dowager Deng!

When the saint reached the age of marriage, Empress Dowager Deng immediately made her niece 'daughter' a concubine - if it weren't for the consideration of the Deng family, if she wanted to get the attitude of the Deng family to develop and grow, the first queen of this dynasty would definitely be Empress Deng instead of Empress Liu!

…… All in all, counting from today's saints, Dawei has not been a Ming monarch for three generations in a row. Don't explain Jun, there is a difference of 108,000 miles between him and Mingjun!

Since the beginning of the Sect, the Holy One is considered the best one. At least he didn't build a palace, didn't build a forest pond, and didn't recruit people on a large scale...... The three generations of monarchs can be called mediocre, and the foundation of the Great Wei has long been decayed.

But what is Yanzhou?

It is bordered by Beirong in the north, Donghu in the east, and Hanhai in the west. The grain and grass in the three places are all from Yanzhou.

The location of the base camp of the previous dynasties has been garrisoned by 200,000 'elite' soldiers all year round!

How can such a place be democratically unstable? How will the people revolt? How did the people come out again???

Because the land of Youyan has produced chivalrous and brave men since ancient times, in addition to the Donghu Liu family army and the Xiliang Shen family army, which have been in constant fire for many years, it is recognized that the most fierce and 'elite' are the soldiers recruited here. There are many military households in Yanzhou, and it is inevitable that the villagers will take care of some of them, which can be regarded as one of the places where the taxes in the Great Wei are relatively light.

It is said that this civil uprising, why should it not happen from Yanzhou!

Even if Yanzhou was looted and the people's resentment boiled, there are now 200,000 'elite' soldiers, who dare to toss under the noses of the 200,000 army, what is this not looking for death? Even if it is a common person who is hungry and stupid and angry, he is guilty of this confusion, but how can the people become up? Isn't it extinguished as soon as it happens?

The 'chaotic' people and the army are two different things, not to mention the 'elite' soldiers stationed in Yanzhou!

Wei Changying couldn't understand how the bandits of the Great Wei Dynasty were plagued, and there had not yet been a popular uprising on a scale that was enough for the imperial capital to send a message in an urgent manner of 800 li, how could it ...... Yanzhou, which is considered the most unlikely by the potential, at least the last, will have a problem, is the first to have a problem?

It's a pity that it is not written in detail in the document, looking at Shen Zangfeng's blue face, his eyebrows are contemplative, Wei Changying bit his 'lip' and swallowed the words that he wanted to ask carefully.
