Chapter 150: Developing People's Livelihood? The Spirit Emperor's doubts!

Although Ye Feng labeled the Spirit Emperor as a tool man in his heart.

But there is still to be etiquette!

When he learned that the Spirit Emperor had arrived, Ye Feng personally rushed to the city gate to greet him.

Looked at

Even the Spirit Emperor, who was a little lonely in his heart, still had a slight feeling of being valued.

The next moment,

Ma Teng and the others, who were still hugging him just now, directly knelt down on one knee and saluted Ye Feng:

"Wait, see my lord!"

"Get up!"

After waving his hand at Ma Teng and the others, signaling them to get up, Ye Feng looked at the Spirit Emperor with a complicated face, and said with a smile:

"Minister, Youzhou Thorn Shi Ye Feng, see Your Majesty!"

「……」

Looking at the young man in front of him, who was no more than thirty years old, the corners of Ling Emperor Liu Hong's mouth twitched slightly.

Speaking of which, this is the first time they've met?

Nothing special, huh?

There is no such majestic and majestic momentum as a military general.

Nor does it have the feeling of a scribe being in control of everything.

Just an ordinary young man?

But

Just such a guy who doesn't seem to be anything special, actually turned his big man upside down?

Although his heart was full of doubts and incomprehension, the Spirit Emperor's face did not show it, but showed a look of gratitude.

"Ye Aiqing, I am grateful that you can travel thousands of miles tirelessly to save me from danger!"

"So be it!"

"Originally, I decided to be a king with a different surname, but I felt that it was no longer enough to reflect Aiqing's merits."

"It's better to change to a word side by side king!"

"From now on, this big man will be yours and me!"

"I don't know what Aiqing thinks?"

"Hehe......"

Facing the sudden enthusiasm of the Spirit Emperor, the corners of Ye Feng's mouth floated a trace of arc.

"Your Majesty, it is up to you whether you will reward it or not, and the minister will not dare to call the shots!"

"But ......"

"Whether it is a king with a different surname or a king side by side, it can't change a fact!"

"Did you say yes?"

「……」

Listening to Ye Feng's headless words, the Spirit Emperor's face became a little stiff.

This kid is not funny!

Although it seems to say nothing, it directly points to a key problem.

Dahan is finished!

Yes!

Dahan is finished!

No matter what efforts he makes, he can't change the fact that Dahan is over.

Maybe......

The only difference is the way the curtain ends?

"Your Majesty~!"

Looking at Emperor Ling's changing face, Ye Feng chuckled and made a gesture of please.

"There's a banquet in the palace, why don't we go in and talk about it?"

"Huh?"

The Spirit Emperor, who came back to his senses, was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then nodded.

"So...... Very good!"

"Let's go, then!"

Seeing that Emperor Ling agreed to come down, Ye Feng did not delay, and signaled to the carriage behind him.

Well!

It's just a few ordinary four-wheeled carriages!

It stands to reason that

There are three modes of travel for the Son of Heaven of Dahan, namely big driving, small driving, and legal driving.

The name of the carriage is called the golden root car, driving six horses, there are five times the deputy car, all driving four horses, and the service is involved, and it belongs to the car 36 times.

In the Han Dynasty, there were clear regulations that the grand driver was guided by the minister, the general escorted by the car, and the servant in charge of the palace carriage and horse drove the car himself.

The rest of the cars are as many as 81 rides, and there are also 1,000 spare cars and more than 10,000 cavalry guards.

The law driving is guided by the governor of the capital, the attendant is with the car, the car is driven by the car, and the rest belongs to the car 36 times.

The small drivers were served by only the deacon Shangshu, and the number of chariots was even smaller.

But no matter how little it is, it's more than it is now!

That's the Son of Heaven!

Generally, there are no guards with hundreds or thousands of people, how dare he let him go out in person?

But now?

Although the guards don't seem to be small, isn't the carriage a little too ordinary?

This car, this car...... Dog...... Will still sit!

Recalling the hardships of escaping along the way, Emperor Ling sighed and stepped into the carriage.

What else is there to pick?

He even rode his horse all the way, let alone this mere carriage?

Besides,

With Ye Feng, the king of Youzhou with hundreds of thousands of soldiers, is not considered an insult to his imperial prestige?

Ye Feng didn't know what was going on in the Spirit Emperor's mind.

He doesn't pick at all!

Or rather,

He had never experienced the luxurious life of the ancient court, and he could not imagine the happiness of the emperors at all.

Costly?

Don't make a fuss!

It's not a word that comes to their minds at all.

All they care about is when the beautiful yard will be repaired.

They only care about whether there are good-looking girls in their palace.

even

For the sake of a dream they had yesterday, they would be able to order the conscription of tens of millions of people.

What are the people?

Ants!

As long as they are happy or unhappy, they can make hundreds of thousands of heads fall to the ground in an instant.

This is the Emperor!

This is the Son of Heaven!

This is the power that countless people yearn for and fight for!

But Ye Feng never felt this way!

After experiencing education in the 21st century, he positioned himself as a common man first and foremost.

Although he is the luckier one among the people and can be selected by the system to come to the Three Kingdoms at the end of the Han Dynasty, this does not change the fact that he is a small person.

therefore

He has a lot of concerns about certain things, and he doesn't have the courage to slaughter millions of corpses in a rage.

But that's him!

Just like the Spirit Emperor's previous evaluation of him.

Even if Ye Feng is invincible at the moment, he still doesn't have the momentum of a fierce general, let alone the chic of a strategist.

Very unproductive?

Yes!

According to some Shuangwen's standards, he should now command an army of one million to conquer cities everywhere, with the unification of the late Han Dynasty as the primary goal at present.

Commoners?

What is that?

A number that only deserves to appear in the post-war statistics!

Does it matter how many casualties there are?

anyway

In another hundred and eighty years, the number of the people will return.

Losses are losses!

But Ye Feng is different!

What does he think about every day now?

How to reduce the unnecessary casualties of the people, and how to let the people live a stable life.

Because he has developed a sense of belonging to this world!

In Ye Feng's view,

Every one of the people here is a living person and has their own life.

If they were displaced by the war he had started hastily, he would have felt a sense of unnecessary guilt.

For example, what is the most important strategic goal of the two major armies under his command this time?

It is not to kill the enemy, nor to occupy it, but to relocate the people who have been affected by the war.

Regardless of the war outside

How to burn, the local Ye Feng in Youzhou can guarantee that there is no war.

As long as the people are relocated, that is the greatest guarantee for them.

After all

War has always been the main theme of the late Han Dynasty, and it is not something he can do if he says he doesn't want it.

All he had to do was to minimize the losses as much as possible.

This time it's the same as always!

When Emperor Ling was welcomed into the palace city of Chang'an by him, the first thing Ye Feng talked about was to develop people's livelihood.

"Developing people's livelihood?"

When Emperor Ling heard this, he was stunned for a moment, with some doubts in his expression.

"Ye, Ye Aiqing, the situation is still undecided, and the Yellow Turban Thief doesn't know how to deal with it yet, is it useful to develop people's livelihood at this time?"

"Of course it works!"

Ye Feng took a sip of the wine bottle, and asked with a chuckle:

"Your Majesty, if you don't develop people's livelihood, how are you going to raise this army of more than 100,000?"

"Know ......"

"Since they were assigned to the imperial court, their food and salary have been the responsibility of the imperial court!"

"Forehead ......"

The Spirit Emperor, who had a lot of excuses in his mind, was directly speechless.

What a plan!

Truly!

If the 100,000 troops were to be assigned to the imperial court, it should have been supplied by the imperial court.

But the question is,

After these people get their salaries, will they really listen to him, the emperor?

Besides,

With his current appearance of being poor and white, where can he go to find food for an army of 100,000?

"Hehe~!"

Perhaps seeing the entanglement of the Spirit Emperor, Ye Feng reminded with a smile on the side:

"Your Majesty, today is the world of the Han family, and under the whole world, is it not the king's land?"

「???」

Listening to Ye Feng's point-in-the-point words, the Spirit Emperor nodded thoughtfully.

"Ye Aiqing, what do you mean...... Continue to raise taxes on the people?"

「……」

When Ye Feng heard this, the smile on his face stiffened, and the wine bottle in his hand was directly put away.

"Your Majesty, I forgot to inform you of one thing, Si Li, and even in the territory of the Han Dynasty, it is forbidden to continue to raise taxes on ordinary people!"

"What?!"

As Ye Feng's words fell, Spirit Emperor Liu Hong was directly stunned.

Does Dahan have this rule?

How did he not know?

Or rather,

When did he, the son of heaven, issue this rule?

No tax increase?

So how do they live!

You know,

The Chang'an Imperial Court is already poor and white, if this can't be taxed, wouldn't he and his civil and military officials starve to death?

"That's right~!"

Looking at the Spirit Emperor's incredible look, Ye Feng couldn't help but give him another critical blow.

"Your Majesty, if you need to recruit labor from now on, you can't just eat and drink, but you also need to pay according to the market price."

"What's that?!"

The Spirit Emperor, who had not yet woken up from the first bad news, almost didn't jump up when he heard the words.

To conscript those untouchables, do you have to pay?

Are you kidding?

he

LIU Hong,

The dignified emperor of the Han Dynasty, the current emperor, has to pay for letting his people do some work?

"Or else?"

Ye Feng shrugged his shoulders noncommittally, and continued to take a sip of the wine bottle.

"Although you are the Son of Heaven, you ask yourself, have you fulfilled your responsibilities as the Son of Heaven?"

"Are you letting your people live and work in peace? Or let the people under your command eat and drink enough?"

"Do you want your people to have medicine to cure their illness, or do you want your people to go to school?"

"Not a single one!

"Even now, you haven't considered the reason why the Yellow Turban Thief is so large!"

"Yes!"

"The reason why the Yellow Turban Thieves can rise is inseparable from those families!"

"But if everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and there is no need to worry about filling their stomachs, will there still be so many people who respond to those yellow turban thieves?"

"Your Majesty~!"

"If the Great Han is compared to a pond, then the people are the water in the pond!"

"As the Son of Heaven and as a parent official, you are like a lonely boat floating on the water, supported by thousands of people."

"But you need to understand one thing...... Water can carry a boat, and it can also capsize a boat."
