Reborn Nongmen's little lucky wife

Chapter 1186 See You Again

"Grandpa, you can't let the emperor do this, or the Great Chu will bleed like a river." Ouyang Ming said the same thing as Gu Jinli: "Although Jianghuai, Jiangnan, and Zhili are rich, the rich are only the families of powerful and wealthy merchants, ordinary farmers Life is still hard. You also said that if it weren’t for that kind of soybean oil, most of the people in Jianghuai would live a life of eating boiled vegetables, and they would not be willing to put oil all the time.”

"I can't even bear to eat oil. Where is the money left to pay double the grain tax and anti-army tax?"

Ouyang Ming was very angry. She learned riding and archery since she was a child, read military books, and has a chivalrous temper.

Hearing this, Mr. Ouyang frowned and looked at her, his face turned a little cold, and he taught him a lesson: "Girl Ming, how did the old man teach you? You may have a chivalrous heart, but it is stupid to speak out such things as disobeying the emperor's orders. "

Ouyang Ming was startled, and immediately admitted his mistake: "Grandpa forgive me, it's my granddaughter who was impulsive."

As a daughter of an aristocratic family, even if she knew that what the emperor did was wrong, even if she sympathized with the people, she shouldn't be so impulsive.

It should be noted that one word can harm the whole family.

"It's good if you know your mistake." Mr. Ouyang looked at the sun outside and was about to speak when he heard the neighing of a horse. He sighed and came impulsively again: "You go to the back room to take shelter first. Meet the guests."

Ouyang Ming also heard the neighing sound, he saluted and went into the back room of the study to take refuge temporarily.

Not long after, Ah Song brought Gu Jin'an over.

When Gu Jinan saw Mr. Ouyang, he immediately knelt down: "Please, sir, save the people of Dachu!"

Mr. Ouyang was very helpless, looked at him and said: "Before you came, the granddaughter of the old man also came to beg the old man, do you know what the old man told her?"

Miss Ouyang?She also came to beg Mr. Ouyang because of the tax increase, and she really is a high-minded girl.

"Students don't know." Gu Jinan let go of Miss Ouyang, looked at the expression on Mr. Ouyang's face, and felt that Mr. Ouyang didn't want to go into this muddy water.

Mr. Ouyang repeated what he said to Ouyang Ming, and said: "This is an order issued by the emperor himself. Before the emperor's order was issued, many adults in the capital had already spoken out, and some even died, but in the end it was only the emperor's order. The emperor's order was changed, but it did not allow the emperor to take back his order."

Looking at Gu Jin'an again, he asked, "Do you know what the emperor's previous imperial order was?"

Gu Jinan frowned, shook his head and said, "Students don't know."

Mr. Ouyang: "It is the people of the whole Chu who have to increase the money, grain tax and anti-military tax. Even the barren and disaster-stricken places in the Northwest are not spared. Finally, under the advice of the officials, the Northwest, The anti-military tax in Northeast China and Zhongzhou has increased the taxes in Jianghuai, Jiangnan, Zhili and other places."

"Do you think it is right or wrong for the emperor to do this? Do you think the anti-army tax should be collected? The Rong people broke through the Longshan Mansion, ransacked a city, and countless people died tragically. The emperor said that this anti-army tax It is military funds, and it is used to fight against the army."

It can be said that the emperor's reasons for increasing taxes and collecting anti-military taxes are very reasonable, the only unreasonable thing is...

"But if the people in Jianghuai, Jiangnan, Zhili and other places pay twice as much tax, it will directly turn the prosperous town into a place of abject poverty!" Gu Jin'an said: "The Rong people broke through the Longshan Mansion, the court should really Sending troops to fight against the army can also increase taxes, but the premise is that the increase is reasonable, and the anti-army tax of one tael per person, except for the wealthy family, which household can afford it?!"

Gu Jinan wanted to become an official, but he didn't want to be a dog official who eats the flesh and blood of the people, so he was very excited and begged: "The student wants to ask Mr. Ouyang Hong to face him, and persuade the emperor to take back his life, so as to save the people and save the people. An Sheji, otherwise, if something happens, the consequences will be unbearable for the entire Great Chu!"

Mr. Ouyang did not interrupt Gu Jinan, but after listening to what he said, he said: "My brother has met the Holy One, but the Holy One insists on this, and my brother can't help it."

A few days ago, he received a letter from his eldest brother, in which he was told about the tax increase and the admonition of the ministers, and finally told him not to get angry or sad, just let nature take its course.

The eldest brother said it very cryptically, but in fact, he is not optimistic about the current emperor of Chu, and he is left to make troubles. If the dragon spirit of Da Chu is still there, there will naturally be a new emperor to turn the tide. If not, then it is fate.

There is a big difference in age between him and his eldest brother. When he was born, his eldest brother had already grown up and had experienced wars, so his eldest brother has always seen things clearly.

This time I will write to him specifically to tell him these things, in fact, I am telling him not to take too much care.

"What do you mean, sir?" Gu Jinan looked at Mr. Ouyang in shock, did he not want to care about it and wanted to give up?

Mr. Ouyang looked at Gu Jin'an and said, "Let's let nature take its course, good or bad, it's all destiny."

"Mr. actually believes in fate?" Gu Jinan smiled, with a half-cold smile and a third-point sarcasm: "Students think that, with Mr.'s personality, they disdain the theory of fate. It seems that the students are wrong."

These words are very disrespectful, but Ouyang Hu was not angry, but looked at Gu Jinan with a bit of sympathy and distress in his eyes, and sighed: "I know you have great ambitions and want to do things for the people of Li, but the world is like this. If you're on it, we're all on it, so what can we do? Can we still fight against the sky?"

This day, Mr. Ouyang refers to the Emperor Chu.

The emperor is such an emperor, no matter how powerful they are, if the emperor wants to die, there is nothing they can do.

Is it possible to take the lives of the nine clans to fight against the emperor?How many people in your family are enough to die?
"Why can't we fight?!"

"Why can't we fight?!"

The two voices sounded at the same time. Gu Jinan and Ouyang Ming were stunned for a while, and looked in the direction of the voice, and it was each other that caught their eyes.

Mr. Ouyang had a headache, but seemed relieved, and asked them, "Then how do you want to fight?"

Ouyang Ming came to the outer room of the study and said to Mr. Ouyang: "Grandpa, we don't have to fight the emperor face to face, we can go roundabout, there are many ways, we can't give up at the beginning."

If you give up without fighting, what are you doing alive?
"Young lady's words are very true!" Gu Jin'an's heart that had fallen into the bottom of the valley returned to its place again, and looked at Mr. Ouyang: "Sir, there are thousands of difficult things in the world, and there are thousands of solutions. There must be a way. Please also, sir." Help, don't give up."

Mr. Ouyang glanced at him, and said: "If you say this, it means you didn't say it. Don't you have nothing to do now? Well, this old man is not the kind of heartless person. As long as you can think of a way, I will help you It's still possible."

"Thank you sir for letting go!" Mr. Ouyang was still willing to help the people of Liming, which made Gu Jinan's eyes light up again.

"Thank you, Grandpa." Ouyang Ming saluted Ouyang Hu solemnly.

Ouyang Hu said angrily: "You guys did it on purpose, you insisted on forcing this old man... This old man is getting old, and I really don't want to pay attention to these crap things that can kill the whole family."
