Ouyang Lun stood on the spot.

Syllable!

The folding fan in his hand fell to the ground.

Many officials in the rear were even more dumbfounded.

"See His Royal Highness Taisun."

Ouyang Lun and a group of officials hurriedly saluted.

"Uncle is so Yaxing, I actually have time to come to this dock cargo ship to play."

Zhu Yunxi's gaze, a smile swept over him, and then looked at the officials behind him and said, "You are all very leisurely, you have all come here to play." ”

Ouyang Lun was stunned for a moment, and then nodded again and again: "The weather is good today, so let's come to this dock for a walk." ”

"Ah...... Yeah! ”

All the officials responded in unison.

"Oh!"

Zhu Yunxi replied and said, "Lone heard someone complaining that my uncle colluded with court officials to not apply for tax certificates, smuggle goods, and evade taxes. ”

"I think that my uncle must not be such a person, there must be someone who maliciously slanders, spreads rumors, and slanders my uncle's reputation."

Ouyang Lun hurriedly continued: "Yes, those people are rumors." ”

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said, "Uncle, don't worry, Gu will definitely return your innocence." As long as the uncle presents the tax certificate of the goods and a tax payable certificate, they are all presented. Innocence is self-evident. ”

Ouyang Lun was stunned, stayed there, and didn't move for a long time.

Zhu Yunxi asked, "What?" Does my uncle think that Lone is not qualified to look at your old man's tax certificate and tax payment voucher? ”

"His Royal Highness Taisun is serious." Ouyang Lun smiled and said, "Come on, go and get the tax certificate and tax payment voucher." ”

After a while, a man who looked like a servant took a few pieces of paper and handed them over.

Ouyang Lun walked over nervously, bent down and whispered: "Your Royal Highness, your aunt is talking about you every day, saying that you were naughty before, and when you see her, you beg for a hug, and the family is happy." ”

"Now that you are the grandson, you are busy with state affairs, but you don't have time to reunite with your family, she always thinks that she can enter the palace to visit His Royal Highness."

"Lone also misses Aunt Anqing, if you are free, you must go to visit your aunt."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and reached out to take the paper in his hand.

Sweeping his eyes, it was indeed a tax certificate issued by the Ministry of Households.

However, the tax paid on the tax payment voucher is a penny.

Zhu Yunxi suspected that he had seen it wrong.

Blink your eyes to make your gaze clearer.

That's right.

It really is a penny.

This is a naked insult to the tax law that he has made.

His face sank suddenly.

"Do you pay a penny tax on so many goods?"

"It was approved by the Ministry of Households." Ouyang Lun said: "Since ancient times, I have never heard of a royal family doing some business and paying taxes. ”

"It's just His Royal Highness Taisun's new policy, and it treats everyone equally."

"I am also a law-abiding person, I apply for certificates in accordance with the law, pay taxes in accordance with the law, and I dare not be slack."

Zhu Yunxi looked at him.

Ouyang Lun arched his hands and stood there, not moving.

Zhu Yunxi's gaze moved to the officials behind him and asked, "You are all shareholders in the cargo business on the ship, right?" ”

The expressions of all the officials changed again and again in an instant.

In front of Ouyang Lun, they didn't dare to deny it.

At this time, how could Ouyang Lun let go?

Not only will you not be able to get out, but you will also be bitten to death.

I had to bow my head one by one and bend down, silent.

"I paid a penny in tax." Zhu Yunxi groaned: "That is to say, the total value of these dozen ships of goods is only five wen. ”

"It's not easy for my uncle to do business, so the imperial court spent ten cents to buy all these goods."

"Someone comes, the goods are seized, and they are filled into the treasury."

The brocade guards who were guarding around had already appeared.

Listen to the order and immediately step forward.

"Isn't it slow." Ouyang Lun stopped him, looked at Zhu Yunxi and said, "Does His Royal Highness really not care about the face of the Heavenly Family, the affection of flesh and blood?" ”

Zhu Yunxi snorted coldly and said: "The inspection of the City Department is just an eight-grade petty official, and he still knows that law enforcement is like a mountain, and he is selfless. ”

"Being alone as a grandson and supervising national affairs, isn't he as good as him?"

"Of course, the family affection of the flesh and blood is taken into account, but the law of the country is in front, how can personal feelings be tolerated?"

Ouyang Lun said: "Your Royal Highness, the imperial court collects business taxes from the princess's family, which has not been heard of since ancient times!" ”

"Even if the people in cloth are ordered, as long as they have achieved meritorious fame, they can be exempted from the land tax and forced labor of the family."

"If farming is like that, so should business."

"The princess's house, you still have to pay business taxes? It's ridiculous! ”

He spoke louder and louder, as if he were straight.

Zhu Yunxi just looked at him coldly and said, "So, you're not convinced?" ”

"Yes!" Ouyang Lun said: "I don't accept it!" ”

His eyes were red and he looked at Zhu Yunxi.

"What about you?" Zhu Yunxi ignored him, but asked the officials beside him.

"His Royal Highness the Imperial Sun, the taxation of the emperor's relatives has never been done for eternity, and it should be abolished."

"His Royal Highness Taisun, the conquest is tyrannical, although it is a long-term strategy, I hope that His Royal Highness will be as good as the stream."

"His Royal Highness the Taisun wants to increase the commercial tax and solve the financial problems of the imperial court, which is also the right thing to do. However, this matter should be compared with the field tax, and all the emperor's relatives, noble ministers, court officials, and scholars with meritorious names should be exempted from all taxes. ”

……

Officials exited one after another.

"Good! Very good! Zhu Yunxi nodded, and asked Ouyang Lun again: "You just said that the inspection of the city department sank the Yangtze River?" ”

"It's the inspector who is looking for his own death......" Ouyang Lun defended himself, and then said a lot.

Zhu Yunxi listened to him quietly and spit out four words.

"Murder pays for life!"

Ouyang Lun was stunned for a moment, his eyes widened, and his face was full of disbelief.

"You...... You...... You can't kill me! He exclaimed, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty will never agree, have you considered the consequences?" ”

"I ...... I want to see the princess, I ...... I want to see Your Majesty. ”

He shouted in horror.

Princess Anqing also knows about business.

With the affection of their husband and wife, if the princess knew about it, she would definitely plead for him.

Although Zhu Yunxi is the grandson and supervises the country, how can he dare to recite a reputation of disregard for humanity and family affection?

Not to mention His Majesty.

Your Majesty will definitely widow her own daughter.

Zhu Yunxi sighed: "It's late! ”

"Aren't you unconvinced?"

"Lone can give you a chance to tell Lord Yama about Lonely."

He said loudly: "Ouyang Lun, the concubine, evaded huge taxes, killed court officials without permission, and regarded the law of the country as nothing. ”

"Execution!"

"No!" Ouyang Lun screamed.

He always felt that what he did, even if he was stabbed in the court, was not a big deal.

The imperial court also has an eight-council system, where relatives and nobles are discussed, and they have the privilege of mitigating punishment.

And the princess is here, and he must be safe and sound.

But he never thought that Zhu Yunxi would not give him the opportunity to hand it over to the court for public discussion.

Immediately to be put to death.

Ouyang Lun was in a hurry.

Before the voice fell, it was caught by two brocade guards.

"Nian is your aunt's husband, leave the whole body."

Zhu Yunxi pronounced Ouyang Lun's ending with a word.

Thump!

But it was in response to Tianfu's sentence that Liu Zhixiang knelt down.

"Your Royal Highness, by all means, he is the husband of Princess Anqing after all, and His Majesty will be furious if he executes the Captain of the Horse."

Liu Zhixiang said almost with a handful of snot and tears: "Even if it is to be punished, it should be handed over to Your Majesty, and your Majesty should be asked to make a decree to punish you." ”

"Ah, yes, yes, yes!"

The officials chimed in.

Next to him, Xu Miaojin whispered in his ear: "Don't listen to them." If Ouyang Lun is handed over to His Majesty to deal with, it will be embarrassing for His Majesty. ”

"On one side is his son-in-law, and on the other side is the law of the Ming Dynasty, how should Your Majesty deal with himself?"

Zhu Yunxi nodded lightly.

This may be what these officials are trying to achieve.

With Lao Zhu's character, most of them will not let Ouyang Lun go.

But if he kicks all the difficult things to Lao Zhu to deal with, the impression in his heart will deteriorate greatly.

Although killing Ouyang Lun may also leave the impression that Lao Zhu does not miss family affection, the lesser of two evils.

What's more, the current implementation of commercial taxes also requires killing chickens and respecting monkeys.

Severely punish Ouyang Lun in order to collect commercial taxes from the imperial court and clear the obstacles.

Even the horses have been put to death, and who dares not to pay taxes?

"No need!" Zhu Yunxi ordered: "Kill yourself in the Yangtze River." ”

He waved his hand, and the two brocade-clothed guards escorted Ouyang Lun, dragged him to the water's edge, and pressed his head into the river.

Ouyang Lun struggled desperately, but it was only in vain.

Gradually, there was no movement.

The officials were terrified when they saw it.

The dignified captain of the horse was executed like this?

"Now, it's your turn."

Zhu Yunxi saw Jinyiwei inspecting and confirmed that Ouyang Lun was no longer breathless, and turned his gaze to the other officials on the scene.

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

A group of officials fell to their knees one after another.

"His Royal Highness the Taisun spares his life!"
