For the children of the family who control a large amount of farmland, the exemption from taxes is comparable to digging their ancestral graves.

"Your Majesty! This move will surely chill the hearts of the people of the world and cause national turmoil!! ”

For a time, the ministers of the family wailed and admonished.

But now Duanmujie doesn't dare to play any dead advice, after all, he is facing Liang Xiao, who is more difficult to deal with.

On the other hand, ministers such as Higashino Hongji are a mountain calling for Shengming.

This kind of reform, of course, Liang Xiao informed the transfer department of the Shangshu Higashino Hongji.

In the past, except for the four great families and the farmland accumulated by the Higashino clan in the previous dynasties, other small and medium-sized families and officials did not dare to enclose land on a large scale, with thousands of acres at large and dozens or hundreds of acres at least.

The land tax is one thing, and the management of farmland and the price of land are not affordable for ordinary people.

The other is the farmland rewarded by the imperial court, for example, this time the soldiers who defeated Beihu with Liang Xiao were given a large amount of farmland, which was approved by the imperial court.

Even the Dongye clan, which controls more than 100,000 acres of farmland, is suppressed by the Duanmu family, and there are very few people in the clan who are exempt from taxes for officials.

Liang Xiao just smiled and looked at Duanmujie and the others who were crying and mourning, angry and funny.

No matter what era it is, moths are indispensable.

If the state wants to guarantee a certain amount of grain production, it must master a certain amount of official land.

His farmland can also help the country do this, first of all, it ensures the stability of the official grain in the north, and he can also buy it back at any time, but now it is imperative to buy back the land of other families, so he did not buy back his farmland immediately.

In the past, the four major families monopolized the imperial examination and a large number of official positions in the country, and the other families and the poor families had very few officials and high school personnel.

And now that the military power and the imperial power are quite stable, if they wait until the future to implement these policies, it will hurt more people who support the imperial power, and besides, it may be a hundred years after him and Duan Yunyi, the resistance will be greater and greater, and the couple must solve this worry for their children and grandchildren in advance.

These policies can also significantly reduce the tax pressure on the people, which is very conducive to population growth and the increase of the national treasury, and relieves the hidden danger of black households.

Only those who occupy an area of more than 60 acres will pay a noticeable increase in taxes compared with the original.

As for the existing people who support the imperial power, the Jinshi, and some officials who control a lot of farmland, taking advantage of the fact that there are not many people in this part, they only need to let the household department and the prime minister's office review it, and privately subsidize a little, which is enough to appease the people.

As for whether he will be like Emperor Yongzheng, so he will be smeared by the landlord class in later generations, Liang Xiao doesn't care at all.

"Higashino Shoshu! Don't you also have more than 100,000 acres of Yanzhou farmland? Say a few words!! ”

Duanmu Jie threw a look at Higashino Hongji for help, and the Higashino clan, who was severely suppressed by his own family in the past, has now become the lifesaver he longed for.

Higashino Hongji pouted and said: "The emperor's strategy is extremely wise, as an official of the imperial court, we should take the people of the world as our own responsibility!" What's wrong with paying more taxes? If you don't want to pay it, you can sell the farmland. ”

Higashino Hongji's mending knife made the Duanmu Festival angry.

After the household was taken back by Duan Yunyi, the imperial court was now not allowed to trade land on a large scale at will.

In this way, they can only disperse the farmland under their name to the names of the children of the family, which is quite troublesome.

"Recently, the imperial court has received hundreds of thousands of Beihu people, and it is necessary to buy back some farmland in the north, Duanmu Shangshu, you can consider it." Liang Xiao reminded.

Duanmujie glanced at Liang Xiao stupidly, wanting to cry without tears.

Once this policy spreads, the price of farmland across the country will inevitably fall, and they will not be able to sell it if they want to.

But based on past experience, he can be sure that there must be fraud in it, and Liang Xiao is likely to be laying some trap!

Now that the three major families have lost power and are under the control of the Son of Heaven everywhere, Duanmujie and others can only break their teeth and swallow blood.

Seeing this scene, Duan Yunyi couldn't hold back a smile, and said: "In addition, the imperial court will also carry out some personnel adjustments, those who have no military merits will be dismissed directly, and those who have both ability and political integrity or outstanding political achievements will be promoted, and I hope that the public family will work hard." ”

Hearing this, Duanmujie and others wanted to cry without tears.

They already had a vague guess of what was going to happen.

Now, the imperial court just doesn't have a high-sounding reason to change the Beijing officials on a large scale.

The addition of the Dongye clan and Guan Long's talents, as well as the children of the Hanmen led by Liang Xiao, the original Zhuge family, the Yang family and other families that supported the imperial power, were enough to replace their key positions!

In the future, the couple will be nitpicky at every turn, and if they do a little badly, they may face replacement.

Moreover, they are also controlled by Xuanwei in the capital, and they are not allowed to go out without permission, how is it different from house arrest?

Duanmujie and the others only felt that their chests were about to explode.

Once upon a time, as a family, they were indispensable, how could there be such a time of grievance!

The husband and wife of the Son of Heaven, plus the prime minister and other old ministers, Guan Long and Dongye clan talents, brought the power of the destruction of Beihu, so that they were powerless to parry.

Liang Xiao said again: "Historian, today's events are recorded truthfully, and after the dispersal of the dynasty, the Great Sunday Daily will truthfully state this matter to the people." ”

The historian in charge of the record agreed and wrote hard.

Duanmujie was unstable, almost fell on his back, was supported by the ram cloud, trembling with anger, and did not dare to squeak.

In the past, he must have fainted directly, but now he can't!

It's not good, Liang Xiao found another excuse and dismissed him like a dismiss Duanmu Cao.

Once the officials are lost, they really lose everything.

The court was finally dissolved.

In the marriage room, Duan Yunyi adhered to Liang Xiao with a look of adoration: "You are so amazing~ Before the change, people didn't dare to think of this kind of thing at all......

Liang Xiao hugged her tightly and said softly: "Don't take it lightly, there should be many landlords and gentry across the country who are fiercely opposed, and they should not dare to raise their heads north of the Yangtze River, we also need a large number of soldiers to guard the south of the Yangtze River and quell the rebellion at the same time." ”

Duan Yunyi agreed softly and said, "How about expanding the martial guards?" ”

Liang Xiao nodded solemnly: "It is necessary!" ”

"Our emperor and emperor announced to the world: the poll tax of the people of the whole country will be abolished, the poll tax will be apportioned into the field tax, and the tax will be calculated according to the number of fields! Abolition of tax exemption privileges for officials!! ”

When the news spread, the people of the capital were all ecstatic.

"My Emperor Shengming!!"

"The Emperor is wise!!"

As ordinary people, they personally feel the pressure of the poll tax, and as the people of the capital, they have limited land in their hands, and they are the first to benefit.

On this day, the streets and alleys of the capital can be heard everywhere in the ode to Liang Xiao and Duan Yunyi.

Only the children of the three major families hung their heads and gritted their teeth and hated it.

Duanmujie and others tried their best to stop the new deal, which was also truthfully recorded by the Great Sunday Daily, and now the people hate them even more than before.

The three families were not washed away, purely because this was at the feet of the Son of Heaven, and no one dared to mess around.

But the many rotten mud, rotten vegetable leaves and all kinds of livestock manure at the door of the children of the three great families are enough to explain everything!

Early the next morning, Xuanwei, who was entrusted by Gongsun Yue, finally returned to the capital to report Gongsun Yue's pregnancy.
