After the Queen Mother proposed a tax increase, although not all the owners agreed, they finally reached a "mutual understanding" because they opposed some "small arms" that could not twist the "thighs" at all.

But even in the case of a discount, the overall tax burden of the people of the Central Empire has increased by as much as one percent.

And the merchants are even more miserable, because they have been added a full thirty percent of the main tax, and after all kinds of overt taxes and fees are added, it can be said that they can not even keep half of the money they earn with interest.

This is still a decision of the high-level, after layers of exploitation, the people have almost reached the point where they can no longer save surplus grain, and countless businessmen have to choose to close their doors in order to survive.

There are even some big businessmen who have active minds and have business in the three countries, and they have begun to secretly transfer their property.

There are not many such people, and the target is also big, and as soon as they moved, the top of the Central Empire quickly received the news.

Watching a large amount of gold and silver flow to other countries, they must be unwilling, in line with the principle that fat water does not flow into the fields of outsiders, they really committed such a big businessman for treason, not only killed the whole family of this big businessman, but also confiscated all their family wealth.

This thing is actually normal, and the people of the Central Empire even support it, but the bad thing is that the Fox Queen Mother's maiden family jumped out at this time.

Their family not only took over all the business and inventory under the big businessman, but also took advantage of the convenience of having a backstage to raise the price of some daily necessities.

Under such a commotion, there were slowly people in the Central Empire who could not eat, and within two months, it was a complete mess, and all kinds of rebels raised the banner of rebellion, and the war spread rapidly to half of the Central Empire.

At this moment, even the Snow Wolf Country and the Yu Kingdom were taken by surprise, from the first wave of displaced people from the Central Empire who fled the war in the border city, to the continuous flow of displaced people in large bags and small bags to the territory of the two countries, it only took a short month.

"Alas, pitiful!" the old woman with inconvenient legs and feet, who was carried by Anthony, sighed after seeing a little orc in ragged clothes who was shivering from the cold in this late autumn, and took out the last loaf of bread in the basket, handed it to the little orc, and saw that he had gobbled it up, and then walked towards the still quiet and tidy aristocratic residential area with Anthony's support.

"Mother-in-law, there have been more and more people like this recently, and you can't control it like this. Looking at her mother-in-law, who was becoming more and more unsteady in her steps, Anthony sighed and persuaded.

"Can you take care of one of them, didn't my brother and the lonely old woman make you hungry?" the old woman gave Anthony a strange look.

In front of Raphael's mansion.

"Mother-in-law is delivering food again?" asked Luna, who had jumped out of the car awkwardly, as she looked at Anthony, who was hobbling the old woman as she staggered along.

I tried to persuade her, but she didn't listen. Anthony shook his head helplessly.

"I'm getting old, do I want to listen to you a little bit? Oh, the princess has been strong again lately, it's so good, it's good, it's good, I'm going to eat more when I'm about to transform. The old woman smiled at Luna, whose smile froze on her face.

Anthony hurriedly turned his head when he heard this, and his shoulders shook with a smile.

"Ang, I listen to my mother-in-law. Luna stepped forward and wagged her tail, rubbed her mother-in-law's hand with her head, and glared at Anthony with a smiling smile.

"Aren't you supposed to be staying at the castle lately, why did you run out again?" Anthony looked at Luna with some concern after laughing, the shapeshifter was no joke.

"The teacher checked on me and said it was fine, and I didn't feel any different. Knowing that my mother-in-law had been away for most of the city recently, I called the teacher and made some ointment for my mother-in-law. You think about putting a hot handkerchief on your mother-in-law's legs every night. ”

With that, Luna motioned for Ria to take the basket of medicine from the car, picked up a few small jars from it, and handed them to Anthony.

The group of four walked into the mansion, and the old marquis, who was basking in the sun in the courtyard, was very happy to see Luna, and detained the person directly halfway, but Anthony did not say a word, and walked into the mansion with the sigh of his mother-in-law.

"Give him some more time!" Luna persuaded the old marquis, who looked at Anthony as he walked through the door, his eyes slightly lost.

The old marquis waved his hand, "Since Dara came, Anthony has been a lot more cheerful, I'm not in a hurry, I'm not in a hurry." You don't know, I had a stomach ache two days ago, and he poured me a cup of hot milk to drink!"

Looking at the old man smiling contentedly at the mention of this, Luna pursed her lips and sighed in her heart.

Although Anthony seems to be really blending into his surroundings little by little, whether it is with a few Fleming family cubs or classmates at school, the relationship has eased a lot, but he and the old marquis have always been awkward.

Sometimes, Luna would take the initiative to talk to Anthony about the old marquis, and Anthony's admiration for the old marquis could be heard between the words, but it didn't stop there, and if he said more, he would be silent.

"By the way, why hasn't Vera's little guy come lately? and has been locked up in the house?" the old Marquis of Casa's eyes lit up when he thought of the little guy who had beaten all his grandsons.

"Well, I just ran out to breathe by bringing medicine to Granny Dala and you, otherwise, my queen mother wouldn't let me come out. You don't know, ever since Jack's bones started to ache, there were at least three people staring behind him all the time, and there were people standing guard by the bedside when he slept. ”

Speaking of which, Luna herself couldn't help but tremble, her humble brother was going crazy!

"Your queen mother is also nervous about you, and when the transformation is successful, the world is so big, you can go wherever you want!" said the old marquis, nodding the tip of Luna's nose and smiling.

"You really have the best relationship with the teacher, and you say exactly the same thing!This is the teacher's new medicine for you, you should take it on time!" said Luna, pointing to the small wooden box that had been placed on the table by Lia a long time ago.

When the old Marquis of Casa heard this, he had a bitter face, and looked at the small wooden box very resistantly, he had never thought about anything in the first few decades of his life, but at this age, he began to be afraid of taking medicine, mainly because Gote's medicine was too unpalatable.

It's bitter and astringent, not to mention, after eating, it's like eating a handful of soil, and I can't go down for half a day.

Looking at the old marquis's sad look, Luna hooked her lips and smiled, and jumped off the chair, "Okay, the medicine has been delivered, and I should go back too!You remember to eat on time~I will ask Anthony to help me supervise~~"

"You're a little guy who's learned from Gout too. Go, go, go directly to the castle, it's chaotic outside, don't worry about your mother. The old marquis snorted dissatisfied, and after admonishing Luna, he asked the butler to send her and Lia away.

It wasn't until he watched the beast cart go away that the housekeeper of the Raphael family turned back.
