Traveling through the divine eagle: the first sword of Quanzhen

Chapter 648
Li Qingwei looked Duan Siying's new clothes up and down, and said, "Your new clothes are not bad."

Duan Siying leaned on Li Qingwei's shoulder at this time, and then said: "It's natural, we have taken so much money, so naturally we have to make up for you, a "poor" emperor. After all, the previous internal expenses were basically all It's Su Yatou's dowry. The whole country owes her."

"Now that we got a windfall, we naturally have to return it to her. Therefore, after the discussion between the prime minister and the regent, 50 taels of the money was used to build the Daming Palace. The rest of the money went to the Ministry of Internal Affairs. .”

"Now that we have money, we concubines naturally have to improve our lives."

Li Qingwei said: "Why, Siying won't go back to Vulture Palace, Dali?"

Duan Siying said at this time: "Then you expect me to go back?"

Li Qingwei hugged her at this time and said: "Of course I don't want to, I want all of you to stay by my side, and we will be together for the rest of our lives."

Duan Siying cuddled a little tighter at this time, and now she has thought clearly, now that she is not too young, it is time for her to abdicate.

Although Li Yuhan and Duan Yunxian are not ready to take over, she can delegate the power of Vulture Palace's affairs.

Now she is waiting for Li Qingwei to destroy the Southern Song Dynasty and surrender to Dali. At that time, she will move to Dali Jiufan to live with her son and defend the south for Li Qingwei's country.

Duan Siying is now also in love with this "little boy" who is ten years younger than herself.He is a true hero.

Li Qingwei asked at this time: "Where is Longer?"

Duan Siying replied: "She is resting in the cabin, and the maidservants of Vulture Palace are taking care of her."

About half an hour later, the dragon boat crossed the Han River and docked on the shore.

And a team of soldiers was already there to greet them, and then everyone set foot on the road to Kaifeng again.

The road was very lively, and the people of the Tang Dynasty all looked up to the princess of the Song Dynasty.

It's just that after a hundred years of evolution, the Han people in the north no longer have much sense of identity with the Great Song Dynasty, and now they are citizens of the Great Tang Dynasty.

They didn't have much respect for the princess who came to marry her, and even regarded her as a "trophy", a "trophy" of Tang Dynasty's victory over Southern Song Dynasty.

It was their "glory" of the Tang Dynasty's victory over the Southern Song Dynasty, and now they just worship their emperor even more.

In today's folk, Li Qingwei has been passed down as "god descending to earth".Some people even worship him as a "god".

However, this behavior also caused dissatisfaction among other people, that is, monks from all over the Tang Dynasty.

Because the imperial court began to implement the "new law".

After Li Qingwei asked Li Guo to bring this "new law" back, Song Ci and others started to implement it.

The content of this "new law" is very simple, it is the "Yongzheng New Law" hundreds of years later.

It's just that Li Qingwei made some changes. The "new law" only implements "dividing into mu" and "attributing credit to fire consumption".

As for the gentry, the gentry, the errands, and the food, that would offend the scholars of the world. Although it benefits the country and the people, Li Qingwei does not have the courage of Yongzheng.

Although this article was not implemented, Li Qingwei thought of other alternatives, which was to cut off the fame of those gentry who had never been officials in the Tang Dynasty.

Now Datang has not opened a department to recruit scholars, and the bureaucrats hired are basically the original old bureaucrats.

Their gentry status, Li Qingwei, the emperor, gave them "guarantee".

However, those who have never been officials in the Tang Dynasty and have the "fame" of the previous dynasty are all invalidated.

Those things that were promoted once and concealed for generations do not exist in Datang now.Some only those smart people who took refuge in Datang and worked for Datang in the early Tang Dynasty could retain their fame. fame".

Officials of the ninth rank confer honors for scholars, while officials of the seventh and eighth ranks confer honors for juren, and officials of the sixth rank and above confer honors for Jinshi.

Those who originally had fame and fame were promoted to a higher level until Jinshi.

Although this aroused the dissatisfaction of many scholars who did not take refuge in Datang immediately, the opinions of these powerless rotten Confucians are not important.

Although they will write some articles to pretend to be "nonsense", it doesn't matter, after all, their necks are not as hard as ghost swords.

In this way, after Zhuge Qingyun hooked up a group of literati who talked nonsense all day long, the world became quiet.

And with the support of these "vested interests" who took refuge in Datang in the early days, they are not afraid of the chaos of the world.

However, Li Qingwei's new law offended not only these literati, but also those rich farmers.

Because today's land tax is no longer collected according to the head, but according to the amount of all land.

This made many landlords very toothache, which caused their strong dissatisfaction.Although they were dissatisfied, the people who had a lot of people in the fields were all cheering, and they also started to have children with confidence and boldness.

Because the land tax of this "new imperial court" is collected according to all the land, not according to the head.

Many farmers without land, even if their family has seven or eight members, do not have to pay the land tax of one tael of silver, which greatly reduces their burden.

These poor people, before working every day, "worship" the emperor in the direction of Kaifeng City as soon as they go out.After all, this Son of Heaven is simply a "savior" to them.

The world is not unified yet, and Li Qingwei's "turf" is not very large, and there are not so many "interest group" entanglements.

As long as the interests of these government officials are guaranteed, and both kindness and power are applied, the implementation of the new law will be relatively smooth.

As for those landlords and rich peasants, it doesn't matter if they object, after all, their necks are not as hard as ghosts.

Zhuge Qingyun hooked up another group of people, and after killing them as an example, these people became completely honest, knowing that there would be no good end for going against the court.

Moreover, this new law has the support of the courtiers and officials, and the support of the common people.These middlemen have no room for bargaining.It can only be passively integrated.

Now, the only resistance to "spreading into the mu" is "temples", "Taoist temples" and some small Jianghu sects.

Compared with those rich landowners in the countryside, these people are the real big landlords.

These people occupy a town and collect the business tax of a town. If the merchants pay the imperial court a share of the tax, then they will have no profit and can only go bankrupt. to collect taxes.

As for these small gangs, Zhuge Qingyun is not too worried, after all, there are more "ruthless" characters in Datang today than them.

Vulture Palace is full of masters, if these small gangs don't give "face", then Vulture Palace can completely "fight" with them and eradicate them.

The only ones that make Zhuge Qingyun scratch his head are the religious groups such as "temples" and "Taoist temples", because these people are not only "jianghu sects" but also thought controllers, with a large number of believers.
