God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty
Chapter 1114 Surprises Are Everywhere
Chapter 1114 Surprises Are Everywhere
Just when everyone worked together and finally replaced Du He's nine major achievements with a small county baronet, after Du He accepted the order willingly, he suddenly called out.
This scares everyone.
Everyone's thoughts are the same as Changsun Wuji's.
Could it be that this prodigal will go back on his word?
"Du He, you are also a son-in-law. How can you do such a shameless thing."
"That's right, just now you made it clear with your red mouth and white teeth, what's the reason for regretting it now?"
Many people reprimanded.
Du He smiled: "Who said I'm going to go back on my word?"
He carefully put away the edict.
Then he asked: "Master Changsun, just now you said personally that from now on, I will not be bound by the original will of the Supreme Emperor, and I can exchange for the title with merit, right?"
Changsun Wuji had no doubts about him: "Of course, everyone can witness what the old man said."
Du He chuckled: "Since that's the case, I suddenly remembered that I seem to have another credit."
"What credit?" Changsun Wuji's right eyelid twitched wildly.
It's time to come.
The old man said, Du He, why did he agree so simply.
clap clap.
Du He clapped his hands.
Outside the imperial study room, Ximen Qing brought in five large boxes with several forbidden soldiers.
Li Er couldn't help asking: "What is this?"
Du He waved his hand.
Ximenqing asked people to open the five boxes at the same time.
Each box contains slow booklets.
Du He introduced: "Father, this is Youzhou, all the yellow books of 36 counties in one state."
The yellow book is the household registration book.
Changsun Wuji looked at those yellow books, and couldn't help but said: "Du He, you want to make meritorious deeds, don't you? The Ministry of Civil Affairs has plenty of yellow books in Youzhou. What's the use of these yellow books you looted."
"Hahaha……"
Everyone laughed.
Du He sneered at the corner of his mouth and said: "Master Changsun, don't rush to obliterate my credit, take a look, what's different about this yellow book?"
Different?
Changsun Wuji and the others stared wide-eyed, but they didn't see any difference.
Du He said contemptuously: "Could it be that all of you are presbyopic, and you can't tell such an obvious difference. This is not the yellow book of the government, but the yellow book of the gentry!"
Swish.
In the imperial study room, there was a sudden silence.
Everyone was dumbfounded and dared not speak.
The Tang Dynasty paid taxes according to the population, but the gentry did not have to pay taxes.
In this way, a group of common people were sheltered under the hands of the big and small gentry all over the country. These people have turned to the gentry one after another, and they are not on the yellow book of the government, so they don't have to pay taxes.
Since many years ago, His Majesty Li Er and the bigwigs in the court have noticed this problem, but unfortunately there has been no solution.
In other words, the government's yellow book population is far lower than the real population.
The most authentic population data is in the yellow books of the gentry.
However, if you want to get the yellow book held by the gentry, it is hard to reach the sky.
Unexpectedly, Du He actually got the yellow book of the entire Youzhou gentry?
Some people didn't believe it, and ran up to read it in person, and finally returned it silently.
All yellow books are true.
Li Er was also shocked: "Du He... tell me, how did you do it?"
Du He smiled lightly: "Royal father, it's easy to say, the Lu family is destroyed, and the nobles in Youzhou are more or less related to the Lu family. I will give them three days to obediently enshrine the yellow book. Unexpectedly, everyone took the initiative and sent the yellow book."
Everyone: "..."
It's that simple?
This is too much trouble.
Du He turned around and looked at Changsun Wuji with a smile: "Master Changsun, look, this is a credit."
Changsun Wuji was speechless.
In the entire Youzhou, if you have mastered the yellow books of the gentry, there will be at least 10 more people.
This is not a small sum, and it also seized the lifeblood of the gentry. In the future, the imperial court will send officials to Youzhou, but it will be unimpeded.
Isn't this a great contribution?
Others can't do it at all.
Others didn't dare to say anything.
Seeing Changsun Wuji in a daze, Du He smiled and said, "Please trouble Mrs. Changsun to record it clearly for me in the credit book."
Changsun Wuji shook his head, but took a pen to write down the credit for Du He.
"Then what should be rewarded?" Du He touched his chin and reminded.
Changsun Wuji rolled his eyes.
I have never seen such a shameless person.
I only heard Li Er say: "It is of great significance for Du He to get the yellow book. He will be granted the first-class title, and he will be named the son of Huyi County. There are five hundred households in Shiyi, and he is on the fifth rank. Dear friends, do you have any objections?"
Everyone bowed their heads.
This reward is reasonable.
Impeccable.
Du He turned to look at Wang Gui: "Lord Wang, please excuse me."
Reluctantly, Wang Gui stepped forward and drafted another edict.
Wang Gui is worthy of being a veteran minister in the court. In less than a stick of incense, he even wrote two edicts without repeating the same, and he was still full of literary talent.
Changsun Wuji said: "Du He, accept the order."
Du He was very respectful: "I accept the order!"
Du He picked up the two edicts, compared them left and right, was very satisfied, and then carefully put them away.
Since ancient times, has anyone changed his title from county man to county son in one day?
No!
But Duhe sat down.
Duhe is No.1 throughout the ages.
Everyone thought, it's time to end.
Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty, I will tell you..."
Retire two words did not finish.
"Wait a minute!"
Du He's voice sounded again.
thump.
Changsun Wuji felt as if he had been hit with a sledgehammer.
The whole person stood there in a daze, and it took a long time to turn around leisurely: "Du He...you, what do you want to do?"
Du He scratched his head, with a shy expression on his face: "My lord, grandson, I'm sorry, I seem to have another credit."
What?
Another credit?
God, why don't you kill the bastard.
Changsun Wuji said angrily, "Du He, did you do it on purpose?"
Du He smiled and said: "I'm sorry, I'm really tired. You see, I fell asleep just now. I just remembered it. My eldest grandson, you are tired, so you should record it in the credit book?"
"Humph!"
Changsun Wuji picked up the credit book and looked at Du He viciously.
Du He bowed to Li Eryi, and said, "Father, I suddenly remembered that this time I went to Youzhou, I seized a total of [-] stones of grain, [-] horses, [-] swords, [-] armors, and countless bows and arrows." ...Father, this is a handover document signed by General Qin himself."
silence!
The Royal Study Room, which was just a little energetic, suddenly fell into dead silence.
On average, [-] shi of grain is enough for everyone in Chang'an City to eat for several months.
The amount of grain stored in the national treasury is almost the same for a year.
Not to mention food, but horses, swords, armor, bows and arrows... are enough to arm an army.
Big money!
If someone made such a great contribution, there will be countless people applauding.
But this person is Du He, and everyone doesn't know what to say.
How is this killer so lucky!
For a moment, everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one dared to speak.
