Chapter 269: Lord Ye has the first performance in taxes, the emperor is not happy and angry, and Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife step on the territory of the Yuan Dynasty!
Chapter 269 Lord Ye has the first tax performance, the emperor is not happy and angry, Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife step on the territory of the Yuan Dynasty!
"Girl, we know what you mean."
"But you have to know that if it's just Ye Qing alone, there is only one Yanmen County behind him, even if he is the king and hegemon in Yanmen County, we won't lose."
"But if these two people are mixed together, then behind him Ye Qing is Yanmen County and the entire Mobei Prairie!"
"As a gambler with brains, you must not gamble with all your belongings, you can only gamble under the condition of ensuring that you will not lose all your money!"
Under the coiling dragon dome, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Queen Ma who was sitting on the dragon chair, and preached solemnly.
Before Zhu Yuanzhang finished speaking, Queen Ma was just a wife who listened carefully, but after Zhu Yuanzhang's preaching ended, Queen Ma suddenly sat up straight.
Immediately afterwards, she smiled softly and lightly: "Chongba, do you mean that I have no brains?" β
"You, you here."
Without waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to come up with a rebuttal, Queen Ma suddenly stood up.
At the moment when her ass left the dragon chair, her whole temperament changed instantly.
Queen Ma bypassed the dragon case, came straight to Zhu Yuanzhang, held his arm with one hand, and took his big hand with the other, and began to drag it to the dragon chair.
At the same time, he also seemed to smile playfully: "Your Majesty, hurry up and sit back, the concubine will pinch your shoulders." β
Queen Ma stood behind the dragon chair and got started directly, and Zhu Yuanzhang began to show enjoyment in three or two times.
If you want to talk about the technique of pinching your shoulders and pressing your back, in Zhu Yuanzhang's opinion, even the people who eat professional meals in the hospital are not as good as her sisters.
The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang feels this way is because they have already reached the point where you have me, and I have you.
Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang's understanding of Queen Ma must not be as good as Queen Ma's understanding of Zhu Yuanzhang!
It can be said that Queen Ma has already studied Zhu Yuanzhang thoroughly from the inside out, what kind of character he is, what thoughts he has under his small eyes, and even what is wrong with him, where she needs to be strong, and where she can't be too strong, she is a wife is all clear.
Because of this, there is the trust that Queen Ma can sit on the dragon chair casually, and Zhu Yuanzhang can also sleep with peace of mind!
Obviously, Zhu Yuanzhang has absolutely no such trust in Ye Qing, not even one in 10,000!
While Zhu Yuanzhang was enjoying it, he closed his eyes and said, "That's right!" β
"Don't take care of everything, don't do everything with us, you are the queen and take care of our harem, just take care of our life."
"As for Ye Qing's matter, we can let him keep his head for the time being, after all, it is also the merit of defending the city and the merit of finding the jade seal of the country, even if we want to kill someone, it must be justified and evidenced, and the evidence of the crime is conclusive, isn't it?"
"But then Wang Baobao can't live, as long as he mentions this condition in front of us, we will cut off his head."
"Wang Baobao is dead, Ye Qing can live!"
"Wang Bao will not die, Ye Qing can also live, provided that he can't mention that condition, we can give any reward, but we can't let the ministers rob it, this is the bottom line!"
β.β
Queen Ma listened to Zhu Yuanzhang's words, and also laughed secretly in her heart, isn't this relieved?
She just needs to let her family take a breath of relief now!
Queen Ma pinched Zhu Yuanzhang's shoulders and said: "Your Majesty, you don't have to cut off his head, as long as you don't agree to his conditions, he will commit suicide on the spot, he can do it!" β
Zhu Yuanzhang, who was enjoying with his eyes closed, just raised his eyebrows slightly, then nodded and said: "This is convenient, then bite your tongue and hit the column and let him be." β
But just as his words fell, Queen Ma said in a worried tone: "It's a pity that the Beiyuan Ranch in hand is going to become an enemy again!" β
"It's a pity that the ancient miraculous feats of annexing Mobei, which Qin, Han and Tang didn't do, were thrown out by you in vain!"
"It's a pity that the purpose of letting their soldiers become your sharp knives, helping you expand your territory and helping you expand indefinitely, is far away!"
"If this matter is far away, it will be even more impossible to throw my son out to achieve the goal of 'the sub-sealing system will continue to be good'!"
"If you can't do this, and you still have to keep the feudal system, in less than two hundred years, your tens of thousands of descendants will be able to eat down the Ming Dynasty, and then cause public indignation, and all of them will become rats crossing the street!"
"Of course, it can also be used by future generations to cut the domain, and if you are not careful, it will be another 'Eight Kings Rebellion' and 'Five Hu Chaos'!"
β.β
Listening to Queen Ma's worries and reminders, Zhu Yuanzhang looked embarrassed at the beginning, and finally turned into a constipated face.
Queen Ma combined with Ye Qing's 'method of using infinite expansion to eliminate the drawbacks of the sub-sealing system', and what she said can be said to be poking Zhu Yuanzhang's heart with every word.
This also made Zhu Yuanzhang instantly remember the scene when Ye Qing was teaching this class.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang also frowned again!
"My sister is right, this Wang Baobao is really fucking dead!"
"Although he was defeated, he defended the Yuan court when the lord of the Northern Yuan Dynasty (εε Zhili Tala) fled, and even if he surrendered, it was to find a way to survive for his people and subordinates."
"His prestige has long surpassed that of the Lord of the Northern Yuan, and it can also be said that his prestige has long surpassed that of the Golden Family, and he Wang Baobao is the de facto Lord of the Northern Yuan."
"As long as he sincerely surrenders, the Northern Yuan will belong to us, the fierce cavalry will fight for us, and countless war horses will be used by us!"
"Not to mention conquering the whole world for us, even if it is for us to bring down the territory of Mengyuan's peak again, it is also very good!"
"How wide was the territory of the peak of the Mengyuan Dynasty?"
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't know how wide the territory of Mengyuan was at its peak, he only knew that it was very large, much larger than the current Ming Dynasty.
Thinking of this, he was immediately interested.
In Queen Ma's eyes, Zhu Yuanzhang sat up straight all of a sudden, and said loudly: "Come on, bring the map of Mengyuan, the map of the largest territory, and call the historian to us by the way." β
As soon as the words fell, Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Queen Ma again and said, "Sister, don't talk about it, let's think about it." β
At this moment, Queen Ma naturally nodded and smiled, and stopped talking, because this is what she wanted.
After a while, the historian ran quickly in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, and there were two little eunuchs behind him to help hold the map.
This brown paper map with a pale yellow background is one zhang in length and width, and is almost eleven square meters in size, and it takes several cows to make this brown paper alone.
That is, Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial study is large enough to have a place to spread out completely.
Beneath the golden roof of the five-clawed golden dragon,
Zhu Yuanzhang, Queen Ma and the historians all took off their shoes and stepped on this unique map of the territory of the heyday of the Mengyuan Dynasty in socks.
"Master Zhao, you can follow this picture and tell us how big Mengyuan was at its peak."
This historian, whose hair was already gray and was respectfully called 'master' by Zhu Yuanzhang, began to explain seriously.
Through Zhao Fuzi's explanation, Zhu Yuanzhang seems to have roughly gone through the history of Meng Yuan's fortune.
In 1206, Temujin unified the Mengyuan Plateau, called 'Genghis Khan', and established the Mengyuan Empire!
In 1218, Genghis Khan destroyed Western Liao!
From 1219 to 1225, Genghis Khan's first expedition to the west eliminated the Western Regions power Harazm, and then crossed the Caspian Sea, north of the Black Sea, Iraq, Iran, India and other places, and further fought Russia!
In 1227, Genghis Khan died, and Ogedai succeeded to the throne and eliminated Western Xia!
In 1234, Wokotai conquered the Jin Kingdom!
From 1235 to 1242, Γgedei began their second expedition to the west, during which they broke through the city of Moscow and began to attack Europe, defeating the Polish and Germanic armies, and commanding Batu into Hungary and Venice!
In 1247, Tibet surrendered!
In 1253, Dali was destroyed!
From 1253 to 1260, the Mongol Yuan launched the third expedition to the west, and the army entered West and South Asia, all the way to Cyprus in the Mediterranean!
In 1271, Kublai Khan changed the name of the country to Dayuan!
In 1276, Kublai Khan destroyed the Southern Song Dynasty!
In 1280, the Great Yuan Empire reached its peak, and at one point it covered 45 million square kilometers during its period of stability.
But at the same time, the Mongol Yuan Empire was divided into the Kipchak Khanate, the Chagatai Khanate, the Ilkhanate, and the Mongol Yuan Empire, but even so, the Mongol Yuan also had an area of 22 million square kilometers, reaching the Arctic Ocean in the north, Indonesia in the south, Korea in the east, and Nepal in the west! (In order to describe the map more three-dimensionally, some place names are not the place names of the time, the area unit is square kilometers, and the year number is 'AD')
After the historian Zhao Fuzi said so much in one breath, he was also a little breathless.
After a while, he bowed and said, "Your Majesty, can the old man be detailed?" β
Zhu Yuanzhang just nodded and said: "It's very detailed, let's let you tell you how big Mengyuan was when it was at its peak, and you told all about how you got such a large territory." β
"Let's go down!"
After the retirement of Zhao Fuzi, only the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty was left, standing on this map representing 45 million square kilometers.
In the eyes of Queen Ma, her family's eyes overlooking this map are like eagle vision!
"Sister, if we heard me right, it took Meng Yuan a total of seventy-four years from his inception to his heyday, right?"
Queen Ma nodded and said, "Your Majesty, you heard it right, and you didn't calculate it wrong!" β
Zhu Yuanzhang just frowned and said: "We think that the method of using infinite expansion to eliminate the drawbacks of the sub-feudal system is a century-old plan and a future that we can't see." β
"A generation does a generation's thing, and we don't ask for our lifetime, we can turn this territory map into the land of the Ming Dynasty."
With that, he walked into the territory of the Yuan Empire, which represented 22 million square kilometers.
At the same time, he smiled at Queen Ma again: "Let's fight for us to make this place the land of my Ming Dynasty before we lose our breath, and the Mengyuan people will only fight and not be governed, so we will throw our sons all to these places to govern." β
"As for the rest of the matter, it's up to Biao'er and our children and grandchildren!"
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to Queen Ma and said, "Sister, are you willing to accompany us to see the arrival of this day?" β
Queen Ma was very relieved and felt very lucky to be able to stand on this map of the territory and conspire with his family.
"I do!"
Empress Ma also walked into the territory of the Yuan Empire, which represented 22 million square kilometers, and hugged Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang just patted her on the back and said, "Then you have to take care of your body, but don't walk in front of us." β
Queen Ma didn't agree, just smiled and closed her eyes and nodded, and at the same time, a hot tear fell on Zhu Yuanzhang's strong shoulder.
Outside the gate of the imperial study,
The two little eunuchs who were waiting to return the map were upset, and they really wanted to scold, it was a bit too immoral to let a crippled person see this kind of scene!
A moment later, the two little eunuchs quickly fled the place with the map in their arms.
At the same time, Queen Ma continued: "Since this is the case, you can't kill Wang Baobao and Ye Qing, one will help you fight, and the other will help you heal!" β
"Although you don't want to admit it, his Ye Qing's ability to govern the local area and deal with ethnic affairs is better than anyone above the court."
"Also, do you think that your sons can really become talents, and after throwing them out, they can really hold up a piece of the sky?"
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't want to admit that Ye Qing's ability in this area was better than anyone above the court, but this was an indisputable fact.
Everything that can be seen with the naked eye in Yanmen County is the best proof of this.
Take the Yanmen Industrial Park founded by Ye Qing and the Yingtian Industrial Park he created, which is enough to prove that he is far inferior to Ye Qing in this regard.
Not only that, although he Ye Qing is powerless, he is a general who can play Wang Baobao around.
The so-called all-round talent in civil and military affairs is nothing more than that!
But when he thought of Ye Qing's life-threatening eloquence, he had a headache again!
Not to mention whether he has a hard mouth and soft knees, just let this kind of person stay by his side, he is afraid that he will be so angry that he will not see the day come!
As for his sons, he also knew that it was impossible for them to all become talents, and the nine sons of Long Sheng were still different!
As soon as he thought of this, he was conflicted again.
Queen Ma just looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's expression and eyes, and knew that he had been shaken.
"Heavy Eight,"
"Although you are not as good as Ye Qing in business, you are the number one master of my Ming Dynasty!"
"It's enough for the emperor to do a good job of controlling people!"
"Aren't you just worried that they will come together and threaten you?"
"In my opinion, it's not that hard at all!"
"Ye Qing is a local snake in Yanmen County, this is a hard mouth every day, you let him move a nest, move to this capital full of brocade guards, he is such a powerless person, he is not a chick cub in your hand, if you want to pinch it to death, you will pinch it to death?"
"I can guarantee that when he comes, he will have to kneel down and admit his mistakes, and you can not only use him as an official, but also let him teach your sons the way to rule the world."
"Your sons learn from him, and then throw it outside, and it won't be up to the sky?"
"Wang Baobao just said reuse, but isn't it up to you to decide how to reuse?"
"Let him do things in the yamen, let him go to educate the prince after he releases the yamen, and he will not leave him any free time except for eating and sleeping time, which is enough to reuse!"
"As for him, Wang Baobao, just hand him over to Tiande (Xu Da)!"
β.β
When Queen Ma said this, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became enlightened.
He Wang Baobao surrendered because of Ye Qing, then he Zhu Yuanzhang just held Ye Qing firmly in his hand, as long as he managed Ye Qing well, it would naturally be equivalent to managing Wang Baobao!
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang held Queen Ma's hand and said: "Sister, you are too smart, as long as he Ye Qing's tax on the spring of the next year is satisfactory to us, then we will do it!" β
When Queen Ma heard this, she remembered that there was such a thing as a tax in the spring.
Taxation is the foundation of the country, no matter how much tax evasion is, there is only a dead end, there is no room for negotiation at all, and she can only hope that Ye Qing can honestly pay taxes.
But he also believes that Ye Qing, a person who is greedy for money, will never do such an unreliable stupid thing!
Thinking of this, the corners of Queen Ma's mouth raised a faint smile again!
Soon after, Xu Da and the others returned to the court.
early morning
Outside the Jinchuan Gate of Yingtian City,
All the court officials lined up on both sides of the formal dress, and Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao also put on their formal dresses and stood there in anticipation.
Xu Da has won this honor for the second time, and the first time was when he returned from the victory of the Northern Expedition.
But compared with the last pomp, this time it was even more grand, because it was necessary to welcome the heirloom jade seal home.
Finally, Xu Da, Li Wenzhong and Wang Baobao led a group of personal soldiers to appear at the end of the road.
A moment later, Xu Da came to Zhu Yuanzhang.
The moment he saw Zhu Yuanzhang, he quickly turned over and dismounted, and ran all the way to Zhu Yuanzhang.
"Minister Xu Da, please meet Your Majesty."
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Xu Da, who was kneeling on one knee, and directly supported his arms with both hands to help him up, and at the same time reprimanded: "If you call our old brother at this time, we are even happier." β
After Xu Da still bowed, he stood up, clasped Zhu Yuanzhang's hand and said, "So many people are watching, you have to be a monarch and a minister before a brother." β
Zhu Yuanzhang was relieved because of Xu Da's sense of proportion, but there was also a touch of sadness in his eyes.
The friendship of the year, after all, there is no way to completely go back!
Immediately afterwards, Tang He, Li Wenzhong and others also walked in front of Zhu Yuanzhang to salute.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Brother Tang and his nephew who knelt in front of him, and the feeling that the friendship back then could not be completely returned was even better than before.
But it also makes sense, who told him to wear this imperial skin!
But he didn't know that when they passed through Yanmen on the way to the class teacher, they found the friendship of the year in Ye Qing!
Xu Da hurriedly took out the heirloom jade seal, and said at the same time as opening the box: "Your Majesty, this is the heirloom jade seal." β
Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but be excited, and interrupted: "You found it back, and you will take it to the main hall and give it to us." β
Xu Da hesitated for a moment, and then took back the heirloom jade seal.
At the same time, he also said in an emphatic tone: "Your Majesty, the jade seal of the country can come back, the minister is just a hands-on person, and it is not a credit, it is all the work of Lord Ye, the magistrate of Yanmen County." β
Zhu Yuanzhang just held his mouth and nodded: "We know, I don't need you to say it." β
As soon as the words fell, he walked in front of Wang Baobao and said, "The brother of our second daughter-in-law, apart from Your Majesty, what should you call us?" β
Wang Baobao looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's smug face and wanted to scold him for being shameless.
In the eyes of the civil and military officials, Wang Baobao was indeed saluting, but he was also saying to Zhu Yuanzhang in a volume that they couldn't hear: "I was defeated by Lord Ye, not by you, you agreed to my conditions, and we will talk about relatives again." β
"When the time comes, if you want me to be called Your Majesty, I will call me Your Majesty, whatever elder you want me to call, I will call you any elder, and I will call you Dad!"
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Wang Baobao who was kneeling on the ground, and only felt that the strange man in the world was not fragrant!
This Wang Baobao is even more shameless than him, in order to help Ye Qing seek a future, he can actually say such things as 'calling Dad Ducheng'?
But this is enough to prove that his loyalty to Ye Qing has exceeded his imagination.
But when I think about it, I don't think it's a big deal!
Because of his 'female Zhuge ', he has come up with a perfect plan for him!
In the eyes of everyone, Zhu Yuanzhang is very generous and makes Wang Baobao flat, very like the king of the Heavenly Empire!
After welcoming them into the city, there was no morning pilgrimage today.
But Xu Da and Wang Baobao were called to the imperial study alone.
Xu Da called the box of heirloom jade seals to Zhu Yuanzhang's hands, but Zhu Yuanzhang did not put them in his jade seal box after identification.
Xu Da was puzzled: "Your Majesty, don't you start using it?" β
Zhu Yuanzhang just looked in the direction of Xi'an Mansion and said: "You rest for a few days, and then we will go to worship the First Emperor, and then start to use it as a national seal after we come back!" β
Xu Da heard Zhu Yuanzhang say this, and then nodded thoughtfully.
Immediately afterwards, Wang Baobao began to put forward conditions: "Your Majesty, Lord Ye is an all-round talent in civil and military affairs, as long as Your Majesty reuses him, the ministers will swear allegiance." β
As soon as the words fell, Wang Baobao performed the most solemn bow among the nine bows of the Han family, and the action was very standard.
But at the same time, he was ready to commit suicide.
Seeing this scene, Xu Da was also ready to help persuade him.
"I promised you!"
As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang's voice fell, Xu Da and Wang Baobao were stunned at first, and their eyes were full of disbelief.
So easy to say yes?
Without waiting for the two to react, Zhu Yuanzhang picked up Wang Baobao and said: "He is our minister, we know him better than you, even if you don't mention it, we have plans to reuse him." β
"But you have such a mind, it is enough to prove that we are not wrong, the world's strange man Wang Baobao!"
"Wang Baobao listens to the seal!"
Wang Baobao was stunned for a moment, and then immediately knelt down on one knee and bowed to the ground, ready to listen to the blessing.
At this moment, the standard official uniforms, standard armor, and standard jade wat that had been prepared long ago were brought in and stood on the side in turn.
At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang said loudly: "I have appointed you as the commander of the Jingwei Command, the commander of the four products, and the subordinate general of the Metropolitan Governor of the Five Armies, Xu Dajiao, the Governor of the Five Armies, and the Marquis of Guiyi!" β
"The minister and the king are protective, thank you for Your Majesty's Longen!"
Xu Da looked at this surprisingly smooth scene, and only felt that something was wrong.
He looked at the official uniform and armor that had been prepared long ago, as well as the jade wat that symbolized his identity, and thought about it again.
"No, with his brother's temper, it's polite not to jump up and cut people."
"It must have been my secret performance seen by the queen's sister-in-law, which is why I have today."
"The Jingwei commands the envoys, and it is the yamen guarding the capital, so that the king of Northern Yuan Qi, who once wanted to enter the Central Plains every day, enters here, which is enough to show his strength in employing people without suspicion and suspicion."
"But in fact, the Beijing army is all in the Xuanwu Lake camp, all in the hands of me, the governor of the capital, and he Wang Baobao has no military power at all, and he is completely a position that looks beautiful and sounds loud, but is completely useless."
"Something like him Zhu Chongba did!"
Thinking of this, Xu Da only smiled secretly, and then looked at Zhu Yuanzhang and said secretly in his heart: "Old brother, it's good for you to symbolically give a little military power!" β
"Wang Baobao is not stupid, after he reacts, he will get closer and closer to Ye Qing."
β.β
Although Xu Da was aware of this, he was not ready to give a warning.
Because in his opinion, it is not a bad thing for Wang Baobao and Ye Qing to get close!
Besides, he really can't remind him of this kind of thing, lest he be accused of saying good things for Wang Baobao!
Three days later, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao took a huge team and walked on the way to Xi'an.
the northern foot of Lishan Mountain,
On the main square in front of the mausoleum of the First Emperor of the Great Qin, the civil and military officials who came here were all dressed in the highest standard sacrificial dresses.
Zhu Yuanzhang also wore the highest specification, a twelve-chapter uniform with a black background, and wore a twelve-gilt crown!
Zhu Biao beside him was wearing a nine-chapter uniform on a black background and a nine-gilt crown on his head!
"Kneel!"
With the order of the official of the Ministry of Rites, Zhu Biao and the ministers faced the mausoleum of the first emperor, knelt on the ground, and bowed three times and bowed nine times in parallel.
"Greetings from the Emperor!"
As soon as the official of the Ministry of Rites fell, Zhu Yuanzhang held the tray in both hands, climbed the stairs step by step, and finally came to the tombstone of the first emperor.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the heirloom jade seal on the tray, and then looked at the tombstone of the first emperor and said, "The heirloom jade seal is back." β
"The people from the Ministry of Rites have prepared three drafts for us, but we don't need any of them."
"We just want to say a few words to the First Emperor, we are just a peasant, but we drove away the Northern Barbarians who insulted me for a hundred years."
"Our experience is really ordered by heaven!"
"Next, let's use this jade seal to let me live forever!"
β.β
After saying these heartfelt words, Zhu Yuanzhang faced the hundred officials and held high the jade seal in his hand.
"Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity!"
"Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity!!"
"Ordered by the sky, both longevity and eternal prosperity!!"
At this moment, everyone's blood was boiling, even Hu Weiyong was red-eyed and teary-eyed.
After returning to Yingtianfu, the jade seal of the country officially became the national seal of the Ming Dynasty.
And the first holy decree stamped with the jade seal of the country is the edict that taxes are begun in various places.
In the seventh year of Hongwu, the spring was in March.
At this time, the official road entering Yingtianfu was full of horse-drawn carts, and the waterway wharves were also full of official cargo ships from all over the country.
In the Imperial Study,
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the account books handed in by the household department, listened to the summary of the household department, and also smiled at the corner of his mouth.
Because this year's taxes in various places are much more than last year, which means that the six years of Hongwu are much better than the five years of Hongwu.
While Zhu Yuanzhang was happy, he still reminded solemnly: "You must strictly investigate all local officials, and you can't let those local officials who wantonly loot the people for the sake of political achievements to get by." β
"If these taxes are collected according to the tax points we set, then let the officials deal with them according to their political performance."
"But if they dare to bully the world and abuse the people, then they will be handed over to the Criminal Department for disposal."
"You must remember that it is better for the officials to cry than for the people to cry!"
Hubu Shangshu saluted respectfully and said, "The minister must carefully and strictly investigate." β
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the account book that was thicker than the palm of his hand, and he was too lazy to find the data of Yanmen County.
He asked directly: "How is Yanmen County's tax this year?" β
As soon as Hubu Shangshu heard about Yanmen County, he laughed directly.
Hubu Shangshu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, Yanmen County is far away, and their taxes only arrived yesterday, so they have not made a record of them." β
"Danchen went to the dock yesterday to take a look, Lord Ye is really worthy of being a genius in governing the world!"
"There are too many taxes on them, whether it is cloth manufacturing, salt and iron mining, industrial and commercial trade, whether it is treasure money or kind, at least more than ten times that of the second place."
"It's amazing that a county can pay more taxes than a prefecture."
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this, he also nodded with satisfaction.
He would definitely not be as shocked as Tobe Shangshu, in his opinion, Ye Qing was just honest.
Immediately afterwards, Hubu Shangshu immediately added: "By the way, Your Majesty, because their taxes came late and were much higher, they alarmed Hu Xiang, and Hu Xiang went to the dock." β
"It won't be long before Hu Xiang will submit the most accurate amount to His Majesty!"
Hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang immediately frowned slightly.
He knew what Hu Weiyong's idea was, but judging from what Hubu Shangshu said, Hu Weiyong should not be able to find anything wrong with Ye Qing.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang looked in the direction of Yanmen County, and smiled faintly with satisfaction.
A moment later, as soon as Hubu Shangshu left, Hu Weiyong ran over.
"Your Majesty, all the taxes paid by Ye Qing, the magistrate of Yanmen County, are the first in political performance!"
"Except for agricultural taxes, they are more than ten times that of the second place!"
Zhu Yuanzhang listened to these two sentences, and the expression on his face directly came to 'sunny to cloudy'!
I ask for the support of the officials, and ask for the support of recommended tickets, monthly passes, and rewards, thank you!
