Chapter 106: New Dynasty and New Deal
Zhang Wuji said: "It's almost time to do it, although they have all been canonized now, but if there is no serious ceremony, it is always not very solemn." Originally, I was going to hold it in the imperial city of Bianliang. But since Min Min mentioned it, it's nothing to hold it here. ”
At this time, Zhang Wuji seemed to think of something, and he continued: "But Zhiruo is an exception. ”
"Oh? Why is that? Zhao Min muttered.
"Zhiruo mentioned to me before that she plans to find an elder to marry her. I originally wanted to persuade the extinction to serve as this elder, but the extinction of the old nun is not good at eating the ancients, even if she dies, she is not willing to turn the war into a jade silk. Zhang Wuji explained.
Xiao Zhao thought for a while and said, "What about Sister Su?" Isn't Sister Su Sister Zhiruo's senior sister? Since it's a senior sister, is she okay? ”
Zhang Wuji looked at Xiao Zhao and smiled and said, "Sister Su's words are a good choice. However, I plan to marry Zhiruo on Wudang Mountain, and after returning to Bianzhou, I will hold a canonization ceremony for her as the queen. Although Zhiruo has been in the rivers and lakes for so many years, there are not many people she knows. When she was in the Emei faction, she always lived in seclusion, so she has no other relatives and friends besides you. ”
"I think about it, the only ones who can be regarded as our elders are Brother Chang and Shigong. When we were in Hanshui, Zhiruo's father died under the arrows of Yuan Bing, and Uncle Zhou fled to carry Chang's eldest brother. It's just that Brother Chang is in Zhu Yuanzhang's camp, and because of that incident, Brother Chang has always been ashamed of Zhiruo, and he is afraid that he will not be able to invite him. ”
Zhang Wuji didn't lie, although he started from the Kunlun Deep Valley at that time, but the original memory of this body would not lie to him, when he was healing in Butterfly Valley, Zhang Wuji once asked Chang Yuchun, who left, to go to Wudang Mountain to inform Zhou Zhiruo that he was fine, so that she didn't have to worry.
But Brother Chang, who has always been righteous, rejected Zhang Wuji's request, for a very simple reason, that is, Zhou Zhiruo's father died because of Chang Yuchun. If it weren't for that, the father and daughter would have been safe.
Because of this incident, Chang Yuchun has no face to see Zhou Zhiruo in his life.
But Zhang Wuji's feeling is the opposite, but it is Chang Yuchun who has made Zhou Zhiruo. If there was no such adventure, Zhou Zhiruo's life might have been fishing on the banks of the Hanshui River and being a fisherwoman. It will not stand at the peak of today.
And Zhou Zhiruo's appearance is not bad, if she doesn't have the power and martial arts, maybe someone will snatch her away when she is fifteen or sixteen years old. In the end, their father and daughter still did not die well. Compared with that kind of ending, the current Zhou Zhiruo can be said to be very happy.
Zhang Wuji continued: "Since Brother Chang can't be invited, then he can only go to Wudang Mountain to visit Shigong. ”
Zhao Min put his finger against Zhang Wuji's forehead and said, "Eccentric guy! When I married you, why didn't you think about it for me. If your favorite sister Zhou marries you, ask Zhang Zhenren to give you a marriage certificate. With that, Zhao Min snorted.
Zhang Wuji hurriedly hugged her in his arms and comforted: "Otherwise, Minmin, you will marry me again?" I'm going to make it fun for you. ”
Zhao Min snuggled in Zhang Wuji's arms at this time and said, "Come on." I'm not a vulgar person. What's more, it's the luck of my life to be able to marry you. How could I care about those little things? And you're out of money. ”
"Huh?" Zhang Wuji couldn't help but be surprised. The first half of the sentence Zhang Wuji is understandable.
Zhao Min herself is not an eventful woman, all she wants is Zhang Wuji's love. For these, she can abandon her status, her father and brother, and the glory and wealth of her life.
But this second half of the sentence
"Minmin, I am now the Emperor. Although it has not yet unified the Central Plains, counting Jingxiang, Bashu, the Western Regions, Persia and other places, its territory is not as large as that of Mongolia. But it is also the most of all dynasties. What do you mean I run out of money? Zhang Wuji muttered.
Zhao Min chuckled at this time and said, "Don't doubt it, it's literal, let's not say that the money you owe Sister Su for the purchase of grain has not been settled for her." With these three soldiers, the treasury is a little stretched. ”
Zhang Wuji asked strangely: "We all came back today, and it was not mentioned in the previous recital, how did you know, Minmin?" ”
Zhao Min replied, "Of course, the 'female emperor' Jiuzhen sister told me." Tonight you will feast in the front, and we will feast in the back. Before you leave, let Sister Jiuzhen help supervise the country, and she told me about these situations. At present, the treasury has less than 300,000 taels of silver, and the treasury of the palace is only tens of thousands of taels of silver. But you're to blame! Saying that, Zhao Min used his fingers with a naughty expression to poke Zhang Wuji's chest mischievously.
"Huh?" Zhang Wuji didn't know why, he then said: "What does this matter to me? I didn't build a lot of buildings, and I didn't have extravagance. The treasury is out of money, what does it matter to me? ”
Zhao Min said: "It's not our tomorrow, it's the trouble caused by leniency and love for the people." Your previous decision to 'divide the land into the acre' has made it impossible for us to collect taxes from the people. And those families who have a lot of land are used to squandering it. He did not have much cash under his hands, so more than half of this year's tax money was not collected. ”
Zhang Wuji suddenly realized and said: "This matter, this is not a big deal. If you can't harvest it this year, you will harvest it next year. If they dare to resist taxes, then behead them for public display! In short, the policy of apportioning the land into the mu and returning the fire consumption to the public must be resolutely implemented! ”
Originally, Zhao Min wanted to persuade him, but seeing Zhang Wuji's resolute attitude, Zhao Min shut up directly.
But she still asked a little strangely: "Brother Wuji, why do you have to implement these two policies?" ”
Zhang Wuji said: "Naturally, it is beneficial to the country and the people. Minmin, you're not an unreasonable person. You should be able to understand what these two policies are. ”
Zhao Min nodded and said, "In the long run, it's really good. But at the moment, the implementation seems to be a bit of a quick success. After all, the consumption of silver by fire is the input of many officials, and most of the fields are in the hands of rich squires. Without their support, we may lose a lot of hearts and minds in the future. After all, we entered the customs from the dragon back then, and Dingding Central Plains relied on cooperation with your Han family. With their support, we were able to live here in peace. ”
Zhang Wuji sneered, and then said, "Then you are still sitting safely?" ”
Zhao Min was choked by these words and was silent.
Zhang Wuji continued: "Why did so many people follow Liu Futong and Han Shantong rebelled? There is only one reason, they can't eat enough, and they can't live anymore. But as long as there is a full bite to eat, there will be no one to rebel at risk! ”
