Chapter 66 Copying the Han Palace

Holding the official document of the Criminal Department approved by Zhu Di in his hand, Xu Jingchang is old god, this is equivalent to the two kings and four two in hand, why are you fighting with me?

I don't have that strength, you know!

He smiled and looked at the three important ministers of Jiuqing who came in a hurry, especially Zheng Ci who was walking in the front, Xu Jingchang smiled and blinked...... Just this time, he almost made Zheng Ci lie down.

He thought that relying on the trick of chasing taxes, he could force Zhu Gaoxu to increase his profits, so as to resolve the crisis.

But a copy of the official document was sent to Dali Temple, and after Wu Zhong saw it, his head buzzed.

I've seen stupid, I've never seen anything so stupid.

If the king of Han had to pay taxes, what would happen to the other wealthy merchants? Those local gentry, even the land endowment had to escape, when did they think about calling it an interest tax?

If the imperial court really has more of this tax, there will be endless troubles in the future...... What's more, when today's son made a bold move and entered Yingtian, he was not Zhu Yunwen's fool who was easy to deceive!

Wu Zhong hurriedly came to Zheng Ci, and then they found Guo Zi, the imperial history of Zuodu, and the three of them hurried to the palace, wanting to retrieve the official documents, no matter what, to avoid holding the Han King responsible.

It's a pity that no matter how fast they are, they are one step behind Xu Jingchang.

Zhu Di's imperial pen approved, the overall situation has been decided, you are late.

Faced with this situation, Wu Zhong, the secretary of Dali Temple, took a step forward and said boldly: "Your Majesty, this case involves the King of Han, and the stakes are very high. This is also the responsibility of Dali Temple, if the king of Han is guilty, he will naturally deal with it. But when it comes to the innocence of a prince, you must not be negligent, this is also the dignity of the heavenly family. ”

Without waiting for Zhu Di to answer, Xu Jingchang laughed, "If you want to say something else, Dali Temple is really going to ask." But taxation is not a heinous felony, not to mention that it is only the first time that the king of Han only needs to pay taxes, pay fines honestly, and even have no jail time. This happened in Yingtian, otherwise the local yamen could deal with it, and even the criminal department would be redundant, let alone Dali Temple? As for what heavenly decency is, it is even more nonsense. His Majesty does not show favoritism, and the King of Han abides by the law of the country, which is the best of both worlds, and it also lets the subjects of the world know the importance of the law of the country. All in all, I thought Wu Gong was too worried. ”

Xu Jingchang really didn't talk nonsense, he didn't know anything else, how to deal with tax evasion, he knew it well, after all, he had participated in all these laws.

At this time, Wu Zhong reasoned with him, isn't that crazy with Kada Zobi!

Not at all an order of magnitude opponent.

Seeing that Wu Zhong couldn't resist, Guo Zi, the imperial historian of Zuodu, said simply: "According to the knowledge of the Inspectorate, His Royal Highness the King of Han charges very low interest, which is convenient for the people, and everyone praises him. It was some people who had nothing to do, framing the King of Han, this time the Criminal Department was sloppy, framing the Xian King, and the ministers asked to punish the crime of Zheng Ci, the secretary of the Criminal Department! and ask Your Majesty to retract the order and retry the case. ”

There is no choice but to lose the pawn and protect the car.

Zheng Ci trembled, but he just lowered his head deeper.

This matter would rather shield the King of Han and dispose of a few large gentry than let this precedent fall, otherwise it would be equivalent to giving the court an extra big knife to cut the gentry, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Since it was the trouble that I caused myself, I can't avoid it now, so I can't take the initiative to ask for it, right?

It's just that it's easier said than done.

If you are wise in this life, you will also lose it!

Just when Zheng Ci was hesitating and hesitating, Xu Jingchang suddenly stood up.

"Your Majesty, regarding the case of King Han, the minister has also talked to Zheng Shangshu and knows some of his thoughts."

Zheng Ci was stunned, I told you, but what you told me was to let King Han retreat and increase the cost, I made it like this according to your meaning!

Zheng Ci wanted to say it but didn't dare to say it, so he could only open his eyes angrily.

Zhu Di asked, "How did you discuss with him?" ”

"Your Majesty, this matter is about taxes and the prince, and it is extraordinary. Therefore, this case must be cautious, and it must be handled as an iron case, Zheng Shangshu is also very attentive, and the conclusion he gave thought could stand the test. ”

Xu Jingchang said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to ask, does borrowing for profit belong to the category of commercial tax?" ”

Zhu Di was stunned for a moment, he still had to think about it.

Guo Zi immediately refuted: "Xu Tongzheng, commercial tax is the purchase and sale of goods, and only when there is a profit, you need to pay taxes. How can it be counted as a commercial tax if there are no goods in the loan, but only money exchanges? ”

Xu Jingchang said calmly: "What you get from selling goods is profit, and what you get from borrowing is interest." It can be said that profit is the interest of commodities, and interest is the profit of money...... These two are the same reason, I have to say that they are different, unless they are intentionally helping some people evade taxes, I don't think Zuodu Yushi will do this, right? ”

Guo Zi gasped, I really can't say it, Xu Jingchang, this kid is simply too demonic, I heard that he plays chess with Yao Guangxiao every day, could it be that this is what Young Master Yao told him?

Thinking of the old monk, Guo Zi also became panicked.

Xu Jingchang smiled and said: "Your Majesty, since the reason is reasonable, the King of Han really has the problem of tax evasion." But he is different from the blatant collision of Jing'anhou, so as long as he pays taxes and pays three times the fine on time, he will not be guilty of anything, as long as he is cautious in the future and obeys the law. ”

He turned his head and looked at the three law divisions with a smile, and said unhurriedly: "What problems do you three have in this case?" Your Majesty has issued a decree, you want Your Majesty to take back your life, but you need ironclad evidence! Otherwise, wouldn't it hurt my emperor Shengming? Are you going to refute the decree? ”

Xu Jingchang said, shaking the imperial batch in his hand at them.

These three faces are pale, the Son of Heaven has not put pen to paper, they are fighting according to reason, and there is still room for redemption. Now that it has become a final decision, it is the process of overturning the holy decree, and the trouble is ten thousand times greater!

Xu Jingchang, this rabbit cub is really bad!

Seeing that the three of them were speechless, Xu Jingchang's heart was overjoyed, and it was time to give a sweet date.

He smiled and said: "I think that this case should be used as a typical precedent to tell the world and let everyone know." Borrowing money for profit is to pay taxes, even if you are the king of Han and your majesty's son, it will not work. At the same time, it is also necessary to make it clear to the big guy that the commercial tax has not been levied for a long time, and there are many omissions, and the imperial court will open up the net and deal with it as appropriate. You won't just grab one and ask for it. The minister thought that this would alleviate the panic of the people and make it easier to implement the taxation matters. ”

Xu Jingchang sighed: "Your Majesty, the minister is really young, and he doesn't know anything about criminal names. I still told Zheng Shangshu about this, and the minister had the experience of writing, Zheng Shangshu is really a great talent in my dynasty. If Your Majesty wants to make great achievements, he must formulate laws and regulations, and he can't come at will, and he should reuse virtuous ministers in this regard, Zheng Shangshu is the greatest virtuous talent! ”

It's been so long, and I've never seen Xu Jingchang cross anyone?

Today, he worked so hard to praise Zheng Ci, and this Lord Shangshu can be regarded as earning it.

It's just that he is not stupid, Xu Jingchang, this kid has nothing to do, and he will not praise himself for no reason, things have come to this point, and there is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire in front of him, he is going to push himself!

Sure enough, Zhu Di had already heard a rough idea.

The real key is not how the second child is, but that from now on, the imperial court will have another source of tax.

It doesn't matter how much you can collect, something is better than nothing.

Zhu Di was excited, and he vaguely realized that this matter was definitely not simple, and the future articles would be big!

So he said decisively: "What Xu Jingchang said is very reasonable, Zheng Zheng, the secretary of the Criminal Department, gave the title of prince and gave flying fish clothes." In the future, the Criminal Department should pay more attention to taxation. When encountering tax evasion, he will never be spared, even if he is a prince, he will not be spared. Don't let a penny be missing! ”

Finished!

The last sentence is simply a death sentence, which is tantamount to forcing yourself to play with the doctor!

Xu Jingchang smiled at the stupid Zheng Ci and said, "Zheng Shangshu, thank you quickly, do you still want to resist and disobey?" ”

Zheng Ci was at a loss and thanked the emperor.

Zhu Di waved his hand and asked everyone to push it down.

Zheng Ci was promoted to one level, but he didn't have any joy at all.

Like a corpse, swaying, he came out of the Golden Palace, looked up, the sun was dazzling, and he thought that from now on, all the interest on loans would have to be taxed, and the gentry of the whole world would hate him, and he trembled and almost fell down.

A pair of arms, firmly supporting him.

"Zheng Shangshu, I want to congratulate you!"

Zheng Ci looked up, Wu Zhong and Guo Zi had long since disappeared, and only the disgusted Xu Jingchang was still by his side.

"You, you've hurt me!" Zheng Ci wanted to cry without tears.

Xu Jingchang laughed, "What is this that harms you?" Let's go, let's carry out the will. ”

"Carrying out the will?" Zheng Ci was puzzled.

Soon he knew that when he came out of the palace, Marquis Wang Zhong of Jing'an came over with a large number of tax collectors, and Xu Jingchang said loudly: "Go, go with me to copy the Han Wangfu and recover taxes and fines!" ”

Zheng Ci only felt trembling all over his body, and almost fell, I don't want to offend King Han!

Who can save me?
