The old monk was like a god stick, frightening the atheist Qin Wei into a daze.

The tormented lecture finally passed, and the old monk looked at him with a little meaning when he left, and taught Qin Wei to feel the hairs on his back stand on end.

The old monk left, Zhao Yunrang and Qin Wei also stood up, Zhao Zhen was in front of them, they couldn't do it, this is the treatment of being an emperor.

Zhao Zhen seems to be in a good mood today, and his temper is much better.

"Today, I will go out of the palace, everyone can act cheaply, and there is no need to be restrained."

Looking at Zhao Zhen and then looking at the Buddhist scriptures, Qin Wei quietly approached Zhao Yunrang and whispered: "Your Majesty, why did you remember to listen to the scriptures in Daxiangguo Temple today?" ”

Zhao Yunrang sighed helplessly, "Isn't it forced by the Queen Mother?" You didn't go to the court in the past two days, but you didn't know that a good child made the queen mother stunned. ”

Qin Wei suddenly became interested, "What do you say?" ”

"Yesterday, Wang Yaochen of the Third Division submitted a report, saying that the disaster situation in various places this year was serious, and he wrote to the Queen Mother to request tax reduction......"

Qin Wei didn't think much about it, just glanced at Zhao Zhen approvingly, "This is a good thing!" ”

Zhao Yunrang smiled helplessly: "I didn't say that this is not a good thing, but the problem is, the third division has no money!" ”

The third secretary made Wang Yaochen in charge of the finance of the Great Song Dynasty, if he said that there was no money, then he really had no money......

No wonder Zhao Zhen came out to relax, it seemed that he was angry in the court.

Seeing the two of them muttering non-stop, Zhao Zhen snorted unhappily, "If you have anything to say, don't you be afraid that I will hear it?" ”

Zhao Zhen's face was a bit like a true dragon emperor, but the little emperor still lacked a bit of majesty.

Zhao Yunrang laughed twice: "Your Majesty, although this is outside, we are all your courtiers, and some words are naturally not good to say in front of you." ”

There were only three teenagers in the room, and the atmosphere was a lot more lively, and Zhao Yunrang's half-joking words made the three of them slowly forget each other's status and identity.

"Okay, then I ......" Zhao Zhen smiled angrily, and said: "Then I am Zhao Zhen, you are Zhao Yunrang, and you Qin Wei, now we are all the same identity, everyone can speak freely!" ”

Is this to make Corporal Lixian a friend?

Qin Wei looked around cautiously, worried that if he said something rebellious for a while, he would be strung into a hedgehog by the cold arrows in the dark.

Zhao Zhen couldn't help but be amused by his appearance, "Less of these foreign appearances, from the first time you entered the palace to teach me how to cook, I knew that you were not the kind of character who broke your eyebrows and bent your waist to do things powerful." ”

Qin Wei smiled embarrassedly, and Zhao Yunrang also hurriedly made a round: "The two of us are just talking about tax reduction......

"Ah......h

Zhao Zhen's smile disappeared from his face in an instant when he heard this.

This year, there was little rain in various parts of the Central Plains, except for Bianliang, the foot of the Son of Heaven, and the capital of the Great Song Dynasty, large or small disasters broke out in various places.

What should the people do if they have no food to eat?

The most direct way is to reduce taxes, and if you meet a better emperor, then directly issue an edict to open a warehouse in the local area, so that the people can survive this disaster year without worrying about food and clothing.

Of course, this kind of emperor is rare, and it is impossible for Emperor Qin and Han Wu to be generous to this extent.

However, the Great Song Dynasty is different, although the military force is weak, it is true that there is money.

Especially in recent years, after the Central Plains War was all pacified, the Great Song Dynasty recuperated and vigorously developed the people's livelihood economy, and the economy has not only leapt to a new level.

Therefore, Zhao Zhen, who had just touched the tail of power, was ambitious, and immediately made a decision to let the people of the world have enough to eat.

But he ignored a serious problem.

The Great Song is very rich, but there are more places to spend money.

Redundant soldiers, redundant officials, and redundant expenses are the three major drawbacks that have always existed since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty until its demise.

This is also the fundamental reason for the final destruction of the Great Song Dynasty.

Therefore, Wang Yaochen, the third envoy, taught Zhao Zhen, a young emperor who was not deeply involved in the world, a lesson in front of the Manchu Dynasty civil and military forces and the queen mother.

Don't you want to be tax-free?

Simple! Coax those magnates and officials first, as long as they can not reach out to the court to ask for money, let alone tax exemption for one year, even five years the court can hold on.

Do you still want the people of the world to be free from disasters and have enough to eat?

It's simpler! Go and remove those box soldiers and forbidden troops by one-third, and the people of the world will be able to eat enough.

Wang Yaochen 'didn't let you in the court', and Zhao Zhen was so embarrassed that even the courtiers below couldn't help but turn their heads away, for fear that Zhao Zhen wouldn't be able to hold back his crying.

In the end, it was Zai Fu Lu Yijian who stood up for the round and suppressed the matter.

The matter has been pressed, but the work that should be done still has to be done, and Wang Yaochen on the third side has no choice, and all over the country are crying about how difficult they are, and they all want to deduct a few pennies from him, the third envoy, with their claws.

Zhao Zhen was helpless, so he had to pretend to ignore Wang Yaochen and ran to the Great Xiangguo Temple alone to hide in Qingjing.

"This Wang Yaochen is really hateful! But I ...... And I cannot chastise him. ”

Again, that's the same sentence.

People do a good job, why punish people?

The lack of money in the court is not the fault of Wang Yaochen alone.

Zhao Yurang hugged him and said: "But this Wang Yaochen is too presumptuous, he disregards the courtesy of the monarch and the minister, and embarrasses you in public!" ”

Zhao Zhen opened his mouth and sighed helplessly: "It's not his fault, after all, I am the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty, isn't it just to do things for the people of the world, but I can only hate the Qiao woman for cooking without rice......"

Qin Wei understood the general meaning.

Roughly speaking, Zhao Zhen wanted to do something practical to brush up on his sense of existence as an emperor, but because he had no money, his sense of existence was not only not completed, but he was also despised by the Manchu Dynasty civil and military.

Qin Wei was amused in his heart and said casually. "It's not that it can't be ......"

Well?

Zhao Zhen immediately set his eyes on Qin Wei.

As a waiter in the Hanlin Academy, the most vocal official around the emperor, Qin Wei felt that he was still necessary, and occasionally helped the emperor solve problems.

Just as Zhao Zhen thought, Qin Wei also needs to brush his presence once in a while, so that he will not be looked down upon......

Seeing that he drooped his head and didn't speak, Zhao Yunrang couldn't help but say: "I'm really in a hurry, what's the best way, you say it!" ”

Qin Wei pursed his lips, looking relaxed, "Isn't it just that there is no money, let's just make money, as long as we earn enough money, the waist will be hard, and no matter if he is the third or fourth division, he will not be birded with him!" ”

"It's lightweight, how do you earn it? Is it possible to let Your Majesty open a restaurant like you? ”

Zhao Yunrang glared at him angrily.

Qin Wei was not happy when he heard it, "What's wrong with opening a restaurant, I make money openly and honestly, and I spend it reasonably!" ”

Zhao Yunrang argued: "According to what you say, how many years will it take to open the restaurant before it can make up for the hole in the imperial court's taxes."

Above? ”

The more the two talked, the more energetic they became, completely ignoring Zhao Zhen, the emperor.
