Stop forcing me to marry

Chapter 13 Earn merit, earn merit!
I can finally practice martial arts.

Langye couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, and the real feeling of time travel suddenly became stronger.

What would real cultivation look like?

Will it be difficult?
Or, too tired to imagine?
"But no matter how hard it is, I must succeed!"

After only waking up for more than two hours, strength became Lin Ye's obsession.

Firm as ever.

In his childhood in his previous life, Lin Ye had a hard time.

So he is always chasing success, or in other words, always chasing the power to control his own destiny.

The goals of the previous life were wealth and power, but the goals of this life have become martial arts and Taoism.

Essentially there is no difference.

Many people choose to lie flat when facing the cruel reality.

Lin Ye does not.

He insists on fighting, struggles, and fights against the world. He has everything when he wins, and returns to his original shape when he loses.

Then get up and fight again.

Wandering in the void for so long, Lin Ye thought that his human desires had all been wiped out, but this was not the case.

After recovering, Lin Ye realized that his desire became stronger instead.

Desire for survival, desire for exploration, desire for victory, desire for food and drink... come swarming.

Lin Ye really likes the feeling of regaining his body now.

Fresh, free, happy.

That polishing did not "preserve the principles of nature and eliminate human desires", but instead tempered his true self more crystal clear, allowing him to know himself more clearly and clearly.

Lin Ye even felt that he had never been so sober.

Suddenly there was a thunder, and today I know that I am me.

……

When leaving the Hall of Mental Cultivation, Lin Ye was still sitting in a fully enclosed sedan chair.

The difference is that Eunuch Liu chatted with him very enthusiastically.

"Lin Shaojun, although our family has the name of a teacher, we are actually an old slave!
If Shaojun has orders, please speak up.

His Highness is currently hitting the Houtian Pass, but he is actually very busy. If there is something that is not well taken care of, Young Master must not misunderstand.

We have to feel sorry for the Holy Majesty and His Highness, if we can trouble them less, we will trouble them less.

As a courtier, isn't that the only duty?
If there is something, the old slave really can't do it, he will report it...

One more point, if it is not necessary, Shaojun should try not to trouble the Taoist sect.

They, after all, are not of one mind with us.

The servants will feel sorry for the young master's hard work, but they only think about how to share the benefits from the young master..."

Liu Dafu rambled all the way.

To be more precise, it's tea all the way.

Although Lin Ye was very uncomfortable with the "Old Slave", he finally changed his title to Young Master.

This is a good sign.

Evidence that the normalization of relations between the two parties is progressing well.

Moreover, what Chacha said was actually very useful.

Therefore, Lin Ye listened very carefully.

For example, the rules in the palace, various follow-up arrangements, and taboos that are best not to try...

Etc., etc.

Only now did Lin Ye truly understand how troublesome it is for a young man to live in the palace.

Once he ran around and ran into a certain noble concubine...

Oh, it's not a big problem. There is a high probability that Emperor Xia will give that imperial concubine directly to Lin Ye.

then……

Kill all the eunuchs, maids, and mothers to which they belong.

Anyway, that's what Liu Cha said in his tea talk, and Lin Ye felt that he didn't get it wrong.

After all, his own existence is always top secret.

And it will be kept more strictly confidential in the future.

Before the main soul was asleep, it was more convenient to control, so there was no need to teach those rules.

Now, Sister Liu Dafu, Broken Mouth, had to remind Lin Ye: You must be careful, don't make trouble for everyone.

The language is euphemistic, but the meaning is clear enough.

Lin Ye immediately realized that in a short period of time, it was impossible for him to get the chance to leave the palace.

Even, the living people that can be contacted are extremely limited.

Eunuch Liu, Tianxiang, red apricots and green plums, and the deaf-mute woman who takes care of her daily life are roughly the same.

If you can't reach people, you can't earn merit.

Without merit, Tianyan's maximum value cannot be brought into play.

Lin Ye's heart was very heavy, but he didn't complain about anything. He quietly listened to the old tea oil and thought about it all the way.

Finally at a certain moment, he took the initiative to ask about the only asset under control.

"Master Liu, what's the situation in my food town?"

"Food place?"

Liu Dafu was taken aback: "What aspect of the situation does Lin Shaojun want to know?"

Lin Ye asked straightforwardly: "Where are my food cities? How do I manage them? How much freedom and control do I have?"

Liu Dafu became more and more puzzled, and even turned his head to glance at the curtains of the sedan chair.

Strange, why do you care about Shiyi at this time?
Isn't the schoolwork that will start tomorrow much more important than that little salary?
Eunuch Liu couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it. Who knows what kind of atmosphere the heavens have...

Just observe slowly.

"Lin Shaojun wants to know, so this old slave will tell you.

Xia Fa said: Everyone who is an official or a noble has a salary.

There are two kinds of salaries in the title system, one is fiefdom, and the other is food town.

Neither issued money directly.

A fief is equivalent to a country within a state, and all property, taxation, and military and political power on the land belong to the fief.

Of course, it is no different than in the old Xia Dynasty. Counting miles, there are less than ten princes and grandsons with real territories, and most of them have made great achievements.

Those like Princess Tianxiang and Princess Muyang are special cases of extreme honor and favor.

Of course, sooner or later, their fiefdom and power will be handed over to their future husbands, which is a common practice.

Another special case is Zongmen... let's not mention it for now.

And Shiyi is probably equivalent to a fictitious territory.

Don't even think about military power and property, only taxes belong to the title.

For example, Lin Shaojun, Anping Bo, Shiyi [-] households, is allocated to you [-] households in Anping County.

Every year, the tax money they pay is collected and returned to the household department for a round, and then paid to Shaojun.

The amount is not fixed and is paid annually.

As for the jurisdiction and control of the closed household...

Of course it belongs to the local government.

Your authority, Shaojun, is limited to adjusting the tax burden, and it can only be lowered, not increased without reason.

The biggest advantage of the title system is that promotion is free, and the number of food towns only depends on the holy family.

Lin Shaojun's Jane is in the heart of the emperor, and in the eyes of the old slave, as long as he makes a little contribution, he will be granted the title of Marquis just around the corner.

When the time comes, don't forget about this old slave..."

"Master Liu, I've been taught."

Lin Ye thoroughly understood what he could do, and felt a little disappointed.

The authority is a little less...

If you can get the control of Tianxiang and Muyang fiefs, you can earn merit by lying in bed every day...

Ah bah bah!
What are you thinking?

Don't think about such hurtful things!
Today's start is good enough. Although it only has the ability to adjust taxes, as long as it is done properly, it can still help many people, right?

After deliberating for a moment, he ordered directly.

"Master Liu, for those [-] households, choose some impoverished households for me."

"what?!"

Liu Dafu didn't react at all, he was completely stunned.

There have been tens of thousands of knights in the past, and such a request has never been heard...

"Young Master, what does this mean?"

Lin Ye smiled, and said softly: "I intend to exempt the closed households from this year's tax, if they are all wealthy households, the money is of little significance.

If it is an extremely poor family, perhaps a little help can be provided. "

"Taxes for the whole year, that's not a small help..."

Liu Dafu was amazed, his expression suddenly changed, he lowered his voice, and asked mysteriously, "But... merit?"

Lin Ye had been vaccinated before, so he was naturally not afraid of the other party knowing at this moment.

However, he still did not directly admit it.

He just smiled and said: "I have dreamed for eighteen years, and today I finally wake up. I am full of joy and don't know how to vent it, so I celebrate with the people."

Liu Dafu obviously didn't believe it, but he didn't hesitate.

"This is a trivial matter, please wait for the good news, young master!"

Immediately afterwards, another flattery was offered.

"Shaojun's heart is kind. If the Holy One knows this, he will be very pleased. Maybe there will be other rewards, so it won't make Shaojun short of money."

Liu Dafu had a smile on his face, but he thought in his heart: I have to send a message to the county later, and then arrange the subordinates of the Supervision Department to keep an eye on it.

Who dares to obey the law, our family will cut off his head, and take it back to the palace to clean the toilet!

Lin Tianjun spoke to our family for the first time, and things had to be done properly.

Otherwise, the prestige will be wiped out, what face will you have to call yourself a half-master in the future?
