Come to Daming with military supplies

If it is said that no one was offended, why so many censors came out at the same time? This is clearly because someone made a connection in advance. Otherwise, how could there be such momentum?

In the court hall, there are three parties.

On one side are the censors who impeached Yang Chendong, on the other side are the affected ministers, and on the other side are the ministers who are not of high grade and not involved in it.

The minister's counterattack, the impeachment censor, also retorted, saying that they were clearly taking advantage of it and speaking for Yang Chendong.Until one person walked out of the class, everyone's eyes fell on him in unison.

Chapter 1 Yu Qian disrupts the situation

"Your Majesty, let me report in detail." As soon as this person appeared, he didn't even look at the censors, but knelt down on the ground and spoke to the saint.

"Here comes Yu Aiqing." Seeing Yu Qian, the left servant of the Ministry of War who was rarely impeached by the imperial censor and heard that his life was very poor, Zhu Qizhen nodded and wanted to hear what he had to say.

It was Yu Qian who came.Perhaps it was because of his incorruptibility that it was extremely difficult for the censor to find fault with him, but now he took the initiative to stand up and immediately attracted everyone's attention.

Ignoring all the gazes of his colleagues, Yu Qian said in a deep voice: "My Majesty, I was fortunate enough to go to Shenxianju yesterday and saw the luxury there. At the same time, I also received a membership card for Shenxianju. And I also took the initiative to check it, which proved that it was just a card, and there was no one tael of silver in it."

These words were said by Qianzhi, and considering him as a person, if he said that he had investigated, then he must have investigated, and no one has any doubts about this at the moment.

Seeing that no one refuted it, Yu Qian continued: "Later, I found out that with this card, you can enjoy a discount when you spend in Shenxianju. Presumably this is the only function of this card."

As soon as he said this, Sun Qing, the supervisory censor, immediately said: "Yes, this is the function of this card. If someone uses this card to spend, they can save a lot of silver at one time. If things go on like this, the amount Isn't it going to reach tens of thousands or even 10,000 + several 10 taels of silver? So this is clearly Yang Chendong"

Before Sun Qing, who was clamoring, could finish speaking, Yu Qian rushed to say, "Your Majesty, I don't think things can be calculated like this. I said before that this is just a card, and only consumption can work. And like It’s a minister like this, whose monthly salary is only enough to support his family, so where does he get spare money to spend in luxurious places like Shenxianju? Therefore, this card exists like waste paper, meaningless at all. The minister thinks, The emperor can ignore what the censors said, but instead encourage the development of fairy dwellings, like this can enrich the people's entertainment, the country should encourage it, only if there are more such immortals, then the country's tax revenue will be reduced More abundant, in the long run, the national treasury will be full, which is a great thing that benefits the country and the people."

Yu Qian changed his normal routine and took the initiative to speak for Yang Chendong.At the beginning, everyone was still a little puzzled, did this person also take advantage of Yang Xima?Otherwise, why do you work so hard, and you don’t hesitate to go straight to the inspectors, but it wasn’t until the last few words were finished that everyone came to their senses. This person is Xiang Zhuang’s sword-wielding intention for Peigong, and he is looking for Shenxianju After the prosperous tax one piece.

Originally, when Yingzong heard Yu Qian's previous words, he was also suspicious. Could it be that this civil servant who named himself Wen Tianxiang really wanted to follow the trend, and was picking himself up like other ministers?But it wasn't until I heard what was said later that I suddenly realized it, nodded and said: "Yu Aiqing is right. The so-called country is strong so that the people can live and work in peace and contentment. That's the case, sir. Please trouble you to ask someone to check the income of Shenxianju. , then go to the national treasury at a rate of thirty to one."

During the reign of Renxuan, the national power of the Ming Dynasty was prosperous and the national treasury was full.But after more than ten years, there has been a tendency to decline in Yingzong's hands. For this reason, Zhu Qizhen has been looking for a way to fill the treasury.Business tax became his goal.

After seeing the prosperity of Shenxianju yesterday, when he returned to the palace, Yingzong came up with the idea of ​​extracting business tax.Not for anything else, but because, as the emperor of Ming Dynasty, he wanted to replace all the windows in the palace with glass, but he couldn't do it, which made him feel a strong sense of defeat.

In the bottom of Yingzong's heart, there is actually another psychological thing that has not been said, that is, as the emperor of a country, he is not as capable as a courtier who is not as old as himself.Yang Chendong was able to make the Immortal Residence be covered with glass, but he really couldn't be the emperor of a country. Doesn't this mean that he is not even as good as a courtier?This is what makes him unacceptable.

Today coincided with Yu Qian's talk of raising the commercial tax of Shenxianju. How could Yingzong be polite, and he agreed in person, and asked his most trusted husband, Wang Zhen, to do it.

In Zhu Qizhen's heart, Wang Zhen is completely his own, and if he does such a thing, he will definitely not treat himself badly.

Wang Zhen on the side never expected such a result.Wang Wen also found himself last night and reported this matter, but he didn't take it seriously. Although with his ability and power, he has the ability to kill everything in the cradle, he didn't do it like this Do.He also saw the prosperity of the Immortal Residence, saw its potential, and was afraid that Yang Chendong would become bigger because of it, threatening himself, so he meant to use Yushi to remind the sixth young master.

Wang Zhen had thought a long time ago that such an impeachment would not have any effect. It involved all the officials of the third rank and above in Beijing, but he didn't need to do anything himself. Only these people could block the mouth of the censor.What Wan didn't expect was that Yu Qian jumped out on his own initiative and said that he would collect the commercial tax of Shenxianju, which caught him by surprise.

But fortunately, this matter still has to be handled by himself in the end, which has become a law for him to negotiate with Yang Chendong.After seeing the prosperity of Shenxianju, Wang Zhen at this moment is no longer satisfied with the [-]% shares negotiated before.

Yu Qian's sudden intervention made Yu Shi's impeachment a failure.But it seems that there is no winner, because Shenxianju has to pay taxes and pay for it.

The court meeting finally dispersed, and the censors left the court under the warning eyes of the ministers. Wang Zhen also left the palace shortly thereafter, heading straight for Yangjiazhuang, fifteen miles south of the city.Prior to this, Xu Youzhen had already made a secret report to the Security Bureau about the situation in the morning court today.

At this time, Yang Chendong was in the study looking at the information about today's early court sent by Hu Mang, seeing that because of Yu Qian's appearance, what was originally just a muddled lawsuit turned out to be unfavorable to him, and he couldn't help being angry With a smile, "This Yu Qian is not funny at all, far less cute than the one who burns his head with smoking and drinking."

"Master, what head?" Qiaoyin who was serving him accidentally heard a mouthful, and couldn't help asking curiously.

"Hehe, it's okay, the young master just thought of something and talked to himself." Yang Chendong laughed uncontrollably, and his face soon became calm.

Yu Qian is a capable, talented and upright official, and what is even more rare is that such a person has more people in his eyes than the king.Otherwise, Zhu Qizhen would not have been captured in history, and he would not have said loudly: "We are completely thinking about the country, not for individuals." Instead, Zhu Qiyu, the emperor of the generation, would have been promoted.

It's not that they are stupid, loyal, and talented. If such a person arrives in Chixian City, it will definitely be of great benefit to the establishment and development of Xinjun New City.

He is a talent, Yang Chendong likes it, he knows what he wants to do.But for Qian, although he loves him, he also knows that now is not the time to solicit, and even using solicitation is afraid that it will never be useful to such a person. If he wants to use it for him, he can only use force.

How to use strong?When to use strong?This is what Yang Chendong needs to consider.

"Forget it, since you don't want to be your servant well, then I will help you." With a smile on the corner of his mouth, he had already thought of how to solve Yu Qian's problem, once and for all.After having a general idea about this matter, Yang Chendong began to think about taxation.

To talk about doing business and paying taxes, this is a matter of course.But it was not the case in the Ming Dynasty. They did not collect three things: no tax from ministers, no tax from eunuchs, no tax from Jinshi and Juren.

These three non-collections refer not only to commercial taxes, but also to agricultural taxes. This makes the powerful and wealthy richer and richer, and the people have worked hard for a year but they can't even solve the basic food and clothing problems.Such a general trend directly caused the Ming Dynasty's treasury to become poorer and poorer.

Knowing this truth, Yang Chendong took advantage of his status to open such a fairy house, which can save a lot of money in a year just for tax avoidance.

But unexpectedly, Yingzong suddenly made such a move through Yu Qian's mouth, which caught him off guard and made him wonder in his heart, could it be that his appearance caused Yingzong's thoughts to change?If so, that's not a good thing.

What kind of psychological changes Yingzong will have, whether Yang Chendong is a man or a god, naturally cannot be known.But there is one thing that must be resolved at present, and that is the tax payment of Shenxianju.Now that the emperor raised it above the court, it would be a bit troublesome to avoid it. How to pay less is what needs to be considered.

Fortunately, this matter is left to Wang Zhen. If it is left to Yuqian, it will be a headache.But even Wang Zhen is a master who cannibalize people without spit out bones. How to deal with him needs to be carefully considered.

Outside Yangjiazhuang.

Wang Zhen is here.He has his own carriage, but there are no fans of Jinyiwei and Dongchang who he doesn't know. From afar, when the carriage approaches, people kneel down on the ground.

Wang Zhen, who had long been accustomed to this situation, drove straight to the gate of Yangjiazhuang's inner courtyard without even getting out of the carriage.

Now, when the potatoes are about to be harvested, anyone who enters Yangjiazhuang needs to be strictly investigated. Only Wang Zhen with an identity like this can be so unscrupulous.

The carriage kept moving forward until it came to the front of the Yangjiazhuang compound.When Yang Chendong was not seen here, the commander of Jin Yiwei who was in charge of guarding safety outside the car, Wang Lin, who is also Wang Zhen's nephew, said arrogantly, "What? It's just a horse wash, why is it such a big air? Don't you know how to come out to greet him?"

Yang Wuhe and Yang Liu, who were secretly watching the movement in front of the courtyard gate, looked sullen. They gradually clenched their fists and moved towards the place where the pistol was placed by their waist. It was only twenty steps away. One tick and one shot can take the life of the one who screams.

Chapter 1 Convincing Wang Zhen

"Hahaha, I don't know that the prince is here, so forgive Yang for being late." The loud laughter sounded, and Yang Chendong appeared at the gate of the compound with big strides.

"Hehe, Yang Xianma is too polite, how can you make me feel ashamed." The curtain of the carriage opened, and Wang Zhen, dressed in eunuch uniform, appeared from the carriage, and then got out of the carriage and came in front of Yang Chendong.

Yang Chendong's smile belongs to the kind that hides a knife in his sleeve, but the same Wang Zhen's smile belongs to the kind of superficial smile.In the final analysis, the two of them came together only temporarily because of their interests, not even counting as allies, so how could they sincerely reveal their sincerity?

"My lord, please!" Yang Chendong bent his body and said politely.

"Sixth Young Master, please." After Wang Zhen laughed politely for a while, he walked forward and pulled Yang Chendong back by two full positions, as if to say that this is his mansion. , rather than some general Yangjiazhuang.

In the main hall, the host and guest were seated, and a very ordinary servant bowed and left after serving two cups of tea.Whenever Yang Chendong's guests come, they will be served tea by Qiaoyin, but Wang Zhen doesn't even enjoy such treatment, so it can be seen that in the eyes of the sixth young master, this person is not even as good as an ordinary guest.

Naturally, Wang Zhen had no way of knowing about Yangjiazhuang.Dongchang and Jinyiwei have countless eyeliners, and many important officials in the capital are being watched, but this does not include Yang Chendong.It's one thing to say that it's not qualified, and it's already surrounded by fans, so there's no need to monitor anything.

"The tea is not bad. It's much better than last time. It seems that the sixth young master has earned a lot of money." Wang Zhen just dipped his lips in some tea, then said with a smirk.

"Where is it, this is still thanks to the father-in-law's blessing, and the income of Shenxianju will naturally be shared by the father-in-law." Yang Chendong knew that this was the other party reminding him, so he immediately smiled and said naturally.

"Hey." Wang Zhen let out a long sigh at this time, as if he was very depressed, then he glanced at Yang Chendong from the corner of his eye, and then fell silent.That look seems to be saying, just ask me why I sigh.

Wang Zhen pretended to be depressed, but Yang Chendong didn't know what it meant.Now that he was going to act, of course he had to play a full set, and immediately he followed the other party's wishes and asked with a curious look, "Why is your father-in-law sighing?"

He didn't answer right away, first he looked sad, and after a few breaths, he opened his mouth and said, "Sixth young master, the lineup you made for the opening ceremony yesterday was too strong, you didn't know, so someone was jealous, and when I went to court this morning , Several censors jointly impeached you for bribing ministers above the third rank and giving them membership cards of Shenxianju."

"Is there such a thing? What bastard is this who doesn't want to see other people's kindness, and has such a bad idea, I curse him to death." The furious Yang Chendong changed his normal gentleman appearance, stood up from the chair, and then jumped Start scolding.

The scolding made Wang Zhen frown, thinking in his heart, there is no such thing as a person who has read poetry and books, it is clearly those unreasonable shrews.
