In Fu Suibo's heart, Ning Shuo has become his best friend. This man does things simply, is righteous, and is noble, but he does not look at the master and the low, nor does he look down on the low, I heard that he also has a friend who is a merchant, and occasionally goes with him to sell goods - such a person is the pride of the sky, but he has the heart of a child, in fact, he should not be in the treacherous court.

Spring flowers and autumn moons, summer wind and winter snow to live a life, is the best destination for a person like him.

But how can a husband be without great ambitions, and how can an official not have a benevolent heart? So in the end, it is those of them who still care for the people who suffer. Thinking of this, he felt sorry for himself, and when he saw the old man of Buyuchuan, he knelt on the ground and resolutely did not get up, and said all the grievances and choices he had suffered these days, and said with tears in his eyes: "Boss, I'm afraid that I will go to Yuzhou soon, and before I go, I still want to discuss the scriptures with you." ”

He didn't get up, and Buyuchuan didn't help him, but waited until he cried and finished talking about his grievances before getting up and solemnly helping him up, saying, "You are indeed a disaster." ”

Fu Suibo didn't dare to hide treachery in front of him, so he said dutifully: "Xiaguan was born poor, if there was no support from Yuzhou Academy, it would be impossible to get to this point." But it was the Yuzhou Academy that provided for me, not these old monks—I was grateful to the land south of the Yangtze River, but I didn't want to be a captive retainer. ”

This is not hidden at all, and his state of mind is completely revealed. Buyuchuan nodded understandingly, and then looked at Ning Shuo, "I heard that Miss Sheng has been watching taxes recently......

Ning Shuo nodded, "Yes, I read the Di newspaper before, and when I looked at it, I went to check my taxes in recent years." ”

He laughed when he thought of the banquet bell, "It's a pity that I can't be an official in the court, otherwise she will be a marquis." ”

Buyukawa smiled and said, "The talent is excellent. ”

He picked up a cup of tea and drank, "Then what can she see?" ”

Ning Shuo nodded, "Yes, she has noticed something recently...... She secretly told me that in recent years, His Majesty's military salary has increased more and more, but the harvest in Jiangnan is not good, so His Majesty has passed on all the silver taels needed to the states and counties in the northwest and increased the taxes in the northwest. ”

Fu Suibo had already heard of this matter, and said: "This is also a matter of no choice, the harvest in the south of the Yangtze River was not good in the past few years, but the northwest is a bumper harvest, there is difficulty in the south, the top in the north, there is difficulty in the north, and the south has been topping, so that you come and go, in order to prosper Yong'an." ”

Ning Shuo looked at him and smiled, "What if the south wants to take advantage of this to reduce taxes for a long time and continue the taxes that have risen in the northwest in recent years?" ”

Fu Sui Bo didn't take this matter seriously, but Ning Shuo asked so solemnly, he also thought about it, and said, "The Northwest will ...... Will it be overwhelming? ”

Ning Shuo nodded, "The northwest area is connected with the Xiongnu and Dajin, the sky is not beautiful over there, and it is a problem for the people to eat enough, and it is not comparable to the wealth in the south of the Yangtze River. ”

A reverse word, so that Fu Suibo didn't dare to sit.

He stood up in horror, "Why is this so. ”

Ning Shuo said, "Brother, do you know why this is happening? ”

Fu Suibo was taken aback, his mind was like paste, and he shook his head, "I don't know." ”

Ning Shuo stood up and paced inside the room, "Because, the treasury is empty. ”

Fu Suibo didn't think about it and said, "I know about this-"

But before the words could be spoken, his heart was pricked by a needle, and the pain made his brain a lot clearer, and slowly, a terrible thought came out, "You mean...... Is the treasury already empty? ”

Ning Shuo nodded, "Yes." ”

Fu Suibo gasped, "In this way, if the land south of the Yangtze River reduces taxes and the northwest places increase taxes - but we all know that half of the country's taxes are used in the northwest, and the troops there will be natural and man-made disasters......

He couldn't imagine it anymore.

If the treasury had bottomed out, and the natural disasters in the northwest came, and the taxes could not be paid, Jiangnan would have reduced its taxes, so the entire treasury would have decreased.

What will happen to the end of the year when the treasury decreases?

Ning Shuo sat down, "This is not a disadvantage of His Majesty, this is a disadvantage of decades, even a hundred years. It has piled up on my body like a pus-filled wound, what if I don't remove it? ”

Fu Suibo sat on the ground with a puff and muttered: "The ministers are richer than the king, and the people are not happy, and in the end, the royal family is broken, and the rich ministers choose the new lord to live." ”

Ning Shuo sighed, "Xing, the people are bitter." Death, the people suffer. It's just that we have a heartache for the people. ”

Bu Yuchuan had been sitting quietly on the top and listening, and looked at Ning Shuo when he heard the words, "Is this what you came up with, or did Yan Ling come up with it?" ”

Ning Shuo: "It's me." Yan Ling didn't dare to think about this. ”

Bu Yuchuan laughed, "It's the same, you have to be bold to have such a thought." ”

"Ah Shuo, you are very bold."

Then he sighed, "You're right, so Your Majesty has always wanted to reform Jiangnan taxation." ”

Fu Suibo's brain is no longer enough. It's not that I don't understand. Rather—

"If His Majesty wants to reform taxes, according to his nature, he must do it."

"And the richest person in the world is none other than Yuzhou, if I go to Yuzhou......"

The head on his neck was cold, and it felt like it was no longer his, but he was being pressed against the guillotine, and the executioner was sharpening his neck with a knife.

Fu Suibo immediately sweated profusely, and his whole body was like falling into the abyss, and he couldn't stand up. If the fall just now was too shocking, now it's scared.

Pure fear.

In the next moment, he didn't say anything or even dared to say it, but Ning Shuo said it for him, and said contemplatively: "Yes, when you go to Yuzhou, you must be to help do things, then when Your Majesty clears Yuzhou, I am afraid that your life will not be guaranteed." ”

Fu Suibo is now even eager to kowtow to Ning Shuo three times, this is not for him to come to Buyuchuan to listen to the guidance, this is to let him escape from life.

He immediately knelt on the ground, "Boss, help me, please save me." ”

Buyuchuan helped him up, "You don't fall deep, as long as you don't seek glory and wealth, you can still stay in Kyoto smoothly." ”

Fu Suibo just wants to save his life now, where do he dare to ask for wealth, so he promised: "As long as I can live, it's good." ”

Bu Yuchuan said: "I still have some face in the Criminal Department, if you are willing, I will come forward to tell Your Majesty, how about getting you a governor of the Criminal Department?" ”

Fu Suibo's face welled up with gratitude, "It's already a blessing in misfortune." ”

Bu Yuchuan patted him on the back, "It's just like this, I'm afraid you're going to sit on a cold bench." ”

Fu Suibo knew that what he said was that Master Wu would target him, but at this moment, where was he afraid of targeting: "If you offend, you will be offended, it's good to be able to save your life." ”

People's requirements are getting lower and lower.
