MTL - Becoming the Empress: Golden Finger Set Under My Bed-Chapter 454 taxation
During this period of time, several major events occurred in the palace.
For one thing, Concubine Rong, who had been a favorite for a while, was once again favored by the emperor after a hooligan incident.
Secondly, Concubine Rong is pregnant.
In her stomach, the emperor's first baby, naturally received the envy and hatred of the entire palace.
And because of this baby, An Lingshan's identity rose instantly, and she became the popular Concubine Rong.
After the canonization of the imperial concubine, Shengdu also had several bad things one after another.
For one thing, the internal officer that Zhu Han sent out to invite only returned one or two.
Who are you asking?
Naturally the king of the Quartet.
However, the internal officials who were sent out were extremely embarrassed when they returned.
But there is not a vassal prince, following these internal officials into the Shengdu.
The emperor was instantly flustered.
These vassal kings are all powerful and powerful, and now he has issued an order, and even a vassal king has no support.
Moreover, those internal officials who can't come back just need to think with their toes, knowing that they must have encountered black hands!
Even his people dare to kill!
Zhu Han is angry, this is his world, he sees who dares to move this position!
"There is no one in the eyes of the Sifang princes. From now on, conscription and preparation!"
The Chancellor of the Exchequer hurriedly played: "The emperor, this year is drought and the treasury is tight. If a war is launched at this time, I am afraid that our food... will be difficult to support!"
Master Yu Shi also said: "The emperor, I still want to think carefully, the four vassals are the fortress of the country, and now the North Kingdom is still eyeing, if we go to war at this time, we may shake the country!"
The prime minister also bowed his body and asked the emperor: "I want to think twice about this, my lord!"
Hearing these words of opposition, Zhu Han became even more angry. He slapped the dragon chair with his big hand, and said sharply: "My words, now they don't look at them, don't you even look at them!"
The ministers threw themselves to the ground, yelling not dare.
Zhu Han sneered, stood up slowly, looked down at the courtiers, and then pointed straight at the chancellor.
"The treasury is tight, then increase taxes! I believe my subjects will understand!"
Then, he looked at Yushi and said loudly, "Slaying the rebellious vassal king, this is a matter of consolidating the national foundation, how can it shake the national foundation, you old man, go back and think about my words!"
After saying this, he glared at the prime minister who was kneeling in front of him.
In order to get the support of this person, he married the daughter who had no salt in his family. Now it seems that it is really useless!
Zhu Han suffocated his stomach, turned around and went to the palace of Concubine Rong.
An Lingshan's life now is very moist.
She was lying on her side on the couch, her lower abdomen was slightly raised, but her complexion was very ruddy, and she was eating fruit.
Seeing the emperor rushing in angrily, he couldn't help being surprised and hurriedly stood up to greet him.
"The concubine has seen the emperor!"
Zhu Han walked to her in three steps in two steps, reached out his hand to help her up, and said in a deep voice, "I didn't say it, I don't need to be courteous when I see me in the future."
An Lingshan said coquettishly: "That's the emperor's consideration for his concubines, but if his concubines are like this, if they are seen by others, they will definitely say that they are arrogant and arrogant!"
Zhu Han snorted coldly: "Who! Who dares to make irresponsible remarks on my order!"
There was a wave of resentment and anger in his heart. Seeing An Lingshan bowed her head slightly and did not speak, he counted.
"Is it the queen?! Hmph, this woman is really like her father, she is pedantic!"
Hearing this, An Lingshan couldn't help but moved slightly, and hurriedly smiled and said, "The emperor, did something happen when he went to court? Don't get angry... Eat something cold and calm down..."
With that said, An Lingshan reached out and picked up a lychee in her mouth, handed it to Zhu Han's lips with her mouth, and blinked the spring-wave flooding eyes.
With a move in Zhu Han's heart, he immediately wrapped the fruit in his mouth and picked up the beauty in front of him for a while.
At the critical moment, An Lingshan hurriedly called a stop. She still remembered how the last child was missing.
Even though the doctor said that the child is very healthy, she didn't dare to make a fuss freely.
She nestled in Zhu Han's arms, panting and sweating, playing with her hair and asked the emperor: "The emperor...what happened?"
When Zhu Han thought about the affairs of the court, he couldn't help but blackened his face again, and told her about the feudal king, and said: "A bunch of people are always stubborn! I dare not, I dare not, I have to wait for someone to hit the door. To stand out!"
An Lingshan raised her eyebrows and said with a smile: "Look at the concubine, they are really old, and they don't have the slightest momentum. If the emperor wants to do it, just do it."
Zhu Han still has some worries in his heart: "Now the treasury is tight, if they stand in front again..."
Although he put aside the big talk in the court, he thought about it in his heart, now that the drought is now in late autumn, there is very little harvest in the fields, and he wants to increase taxes, which will not have much effect.
An Lingshan stretched out her slender hand and patted him on the chest, and chuckled, "You are the emperor, the most noble person in this world, and they just can move their mouths. After all, they are not acting according to your intentions. ?"
With that said, she said again: "If it really doesn't work, it's not impossible to kill chickens and monkeys. Find a pedantic old guy and just cut it off. If you want to come to the rest, you won't dare to say a word of disobedience to the emperor."
Zhu Han's eyes lit up, and her heart suddenly became clear when she said a few words, and smiled and kissed An Lingshan on the cheek.
"Shan'er, you are really my treasure bag!"
An Lingshan also giggled, rolling on the bed with Zhu Han.
Then Zhu Han asked again: "You said, what if those foolish people resisted when I was taxing?"
When he came here, he had always been troubled by this, thinking about An Lingshan's many ideas, it didn't hurt to think about her.
"Foolish people resist?"
An Lingshan smiled lightly: "The emperor, then you first draft and then tax!"
Zhu Han frowned, lying on the bed sniffing An Lingshan's hair, and said solemnly: "What's the answer to this?"
"The emperor, you think, if you levy taxes first, those foolish people will naturally evade that it is a drought in the world, and there will be no crops, and they will probably not be able to collect much. But if you conscript first, each family will send a soldier, and then release the news, saying that it is on. On the front line, if there is not enough food and grass, these people will not be able to return."
An Lingshan raised her lips: "You said, would those foolish people watch their sons or fathers starve to death on the battlefield? They must take things out obediently!"
Qiuyue stood outside the door, looking blankly at the burning cloud on the horizon, feeling that the cloud was about to burn herself.
She lowered her head slowly, and sighed deeply.
