Grandpa, she can't be a woman

Chapter 522 Since this mess will be cleaned up sooner or later...

When we left the old woman's house, the sky had completely darkened.

Because of the cold weather, the people in the border towns also rested early one by one.

Along the way, it was extremely difficult to see even a few faint candlelights.

But because there are many people living here, the snow that has not yet melted on the ground has already been trampled into a solid layer of ice.
Walking in broad daylight is still very careful to prevent falls, let alone at night.

When Yun Xiao and Pei Yi were leading the horse on the road, they could even feel the horse behind them trying to tame their four hooves that were slipping crazily!

"I remember that when the first emperor was in power, it seemed that there was a regulation on compensation for the families of the casualties, right?"

The words of the old woman and her eldest grandson just now seemed to still be lingering in her ears.

Amidst the occasional sound of the horse's hooves stepping on the ice, Yun Xiao suddenly said in a deep voice:

"Anyone who sacrificed his life for the country will receive at least 20 taels of pension per person according to his rank in the military.

For those who are seriously injured and disabled for the country, at least ten taels of pension will be paid.

At the same time, the family tax reduction and exemption for three years,
For those who have no children, their widows can remarry after one year.

For those who have children and descendants, although their widows can remarry, they still have the obligation to raise their children..."

Yun Xiao has a good memory since she was a child, even if she overheard someone talking about something ten years ago, she can still state it fluently now.

It's a pity that these things have not been explicitly abolished,

But with the death of the first emperor, there are not many people like Yun Xiao who still remember these things.

Or to be more precise, some guys in high positions don't want anyone below to remember.

For example, the dog emperor.

"During the reign of the first emperor, the wars in various places have almost completely subsided.
The number of casualties in the army has been greatly reduced, and the annual expenditure in this area is not much.

After the current person ascended the throne, the income of the treasury has been greatly reduced. Every time the Ministry of Finance mentions the emptiness of the treasury, they will be scolded bloody. "

When Pei Yi was in Shengjing, although he was a down-and-out son who was neglected,
But You Yunxiao brought him various news from time to time,

Analyzing it now, it's not too difficult:
"Thinking about it, this expense was directly saved by them.

After the war broke out last year, the imperial court recruited soldiers everywhere. Because of lack of money, taxes everywhere have been raised again and again. It can be said that it has reached the point where it has completely ignored the lives of the people.

In this case, it is even more impossible to issue pensions.

Especially the king of Zhenbei turned against him later. Today's frontier army has become a rebel army, and it has nothing to do with the court at all. "

"The court will not give this pension, nor will the king of Zhenbei,

So now the Frontier Army does not belong to the imperial court, nor does it belong to King Zhenbei. "

Yun Xiao's eyes dimmed:

"The Frontier Army is mine now."

"Have you thought about it?"

Pei Yi is not surprised that she has such a plan, but it should be reminded, he still has to remind:
"It is true that you have a lot of money now, but there are also a lot of places where you need to use the money later.

If one day, you really sit in that position, the treasury that has been emptied now, and the people who are almost squeezed dry, will become a mess that you will clean up. "

"Since I will clean up sooner or later, why not start from the border town first?"
