Comprehensive martial arts: Summon the thunder and lightning general, I will rule the world

Chapter 245 Damn it, I’m going to take the blame again!

Ah Ching!

Although Feiyan did not directly tell the other party's identity, Zhu Houzhao knew the other party's identity instantly.

It seems that Ah Qing does exist, and she is an old woman who is hundreds of years old.

If possible, Zhu Houzhao really wanted to fight Ah Qing.

But, having said that, what on earth is that guy Dugu Qiubei so arrogant about?

Look at Mr. Qing, and then look at yourself!
What do you have to lose?
At this time, Zhu Houzhao was actually still looking forward to Ah Qing coming to the Ming Dynasty. It might be interesting if he had a chance to fight Ah Qing and later be witnessed by Dugu Qiubai.

"It sounds very interesting. If there is a chance, I wouldn't mind joining him in a battle!" Zhu Houzhao said with a smile on his lips: "However, since Donghuang Taiyi and that person are friends, Lian is becoming more and more curious. The other party's share will be taken

Ah Qing obviously doesn't have many friends, Fan Li?
This is not impossible. After all, this guy may really be able to establish a Yin and Yang family.

But there is another possibility in Zhu Houzhao's heart. Could it be that one?
"In addition to our Yin Yang family, there are also many land gods among other forces, just like Xunzi of Confucianism among the hundreds of scholars. He is an out-and-out land god." At this point, Fei Yan Yan's expression became a little subtle: "

Your Majesty seems not to take the literati seriously in many cases, but in fact Confucianism is a very terrifying force. Although the literati in the Ming Dynasty are generally not recognized by real Confucianists, your Majesty still has to be careful. .

Donghuang Taiyi once suspected that Mencius might still be alive. "

"Mencius?" Zhu Houzhao also felt melancholy for a while after hearing this. Sure enough, they are all a bunch of old cunts!

However, he also thought of Confucius. In this world, could the true meaning of the Analects of Confucius be "Swinging Confucius"?
"Lian Dui doesn't care much about these scholars. In my country, no one in the Ming Dynasty can transcend things except me, not Buddhism, Taoism, and Confucianism!" Zhu Houzhao said confidently: "If they dare Come on, I don't mind killing them all.

Seeing Zhu Houzhao like this, Feiyan was also in a trance for a while. It seemed that such a man was really domineering!

Except perhaps among all the emperors, only Yingzheng can compare with Zhu Houzhao in terms of courage.

"By the way, I'll give this to you!" Xiangzi thought, and Zhu Houzhao took out another secret book and handed it to Feiyan.

"Is this?" Feiyan took the secret book, and after seeing Yu clearly on it, her pupils couldn't help but shrink: "Is this the Secret of Immortality?"

"Well, after talking with you, I found that this thing should be helpful to you. Just treat it as a betrothal gift!" Zhu Houzhao was not worried that the Immortality Secret would increase the strength of the Yin Yang family and eventually become his enemy.

After all, the longevity formula he gave Feiyan was the most primitive Oracle version. Unless he had his own teachings, it would be difficult for normal people to learn the longevity reading.

Even an old antique who has lived for thousands of years cannot understand the oracle bone inscriptions on it.

Because the oracle bone inscriptions of Guangchengzi's time are different from the later oracle bone inscriptions.

This is not so much an oracle bone inscription as a picture.

If Donghuang Taiyi could really cultivate the longevity formula, Zhu Houzhao would recognize it directly!
Anyway, I have better ones on hand!The Secret of Immortality is just a foundation!
But these words had a different meaning in Feiyan's ears.

Although she couldn't understand the secret of longevity, Feiyan didn't think that Zhu Houzhao would deceive her in this regard. The land gods still wanted to have face, and Zhu Houzhao couldn't deceive others in this regard.

But a betrothal gift?It seems good. If Donghuang Taiyi received the longevity pill, he would definitely agree to this, right?
"Furthermore, considering the fact that Zhu Houzhao has many land gods on hand, Donghuang Taiyi doesn't dare to mess around.

"I need to send someone to discuss this matter with Lord Donghuang." Feiyan paused and continued to add: "He is my master. Without him, I might have died long ago."

These words actually showed that Feiyan had agreed to Zhu Houzhao's request.

This also makes Zhu Houzhao very satisfied. Wen people like Feiyan are very trustworthy. After getting along with each other for this period of time, Zhu Houzhao also confirmed that the other party is a love brain. Zhu Houzhao said that he just likes to be in love. brain.

However, what Feiyan said made Zhu Houzhao think of a lot of things. Did dragons not exist 5000 years ago?

As far as we know, the Temple of War first appeared 5000 years ago, and the first person to enter the Temple of War was Guangchengzi.And at that time, were there any existences that surpassed the land gods?If possible, Zhu Houzhao really wanted to meet those people.

What is the reason for these beings that transcend land gods to disappear?
It can't be because of the Conferred God War, right?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

"By the way, Da Qin seems to want to plant spies into His Majesty's harem. I hope you will be careful." Feiyan then continued to remind Dong Houzhao.

"Spy?" Zhu Houzhao's mouth twitched: "Is it possible that Liansha can't do it? However, ordinary people, even if they enter my harem, they will not play any role!"

There is no doubt about Xu Yeyue's ability, and with Bai Fangka assisting him, Zhu Houzhao is not worried about spies at all.

But who is this conspiracy?

By the way, Ying Zheng seems to have quite a lot of beautiful girls under his command. How about asking Brother Zheng for more girls?
"Your Majesty, this is last year's treasury revenue and expenditure!" During the rare morning time, Zhang Juzheng handed over a memorial and said to Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao asked someone to bring the memorial up and glanced at the information on it: "Last year's normal treasury revenue was only 7000 million taels? But the expenditure exceeded 3000 million taels?"

"Your Majesty, because there were many wars last year, military expenditures increased, and post-war repairs also consumed a lot of money." Zhang Juzheng also knew what Zhu Houzhao meant, and quickly explained.

Of course, this is just a play.

"However, isn't the normal revenue of the treasury too small?" Zhu Houzhao snorted: "There are more than 1000 million taels in this, and they are all taxes paid by my imperial estate and royal properties!
But why are there so few other taxes?I am already paying taxes to Ming Dynasty!Don’t these businessmen know how to pay taxes? "

"Your Majesty! Our Ming Dynasty's taxation on business has always been low..."

Zhang Juzheng said hesitantly.

"Well, since it's too small, let's start collecting taxes! Zhang Juzheng, please come up with a charter. Lian doesn't want to see these businessmen living a life of fine clothes and fine food, and enjoying the protection of my Ming Dynasty, but they don't need to bear any responsibility. Duty to pay taxes!

Paying taxes is every taxpayer’s obligation!I'm all paying taxes, but those scumbags don't want to pay taxes. Anyone who doesn't pay taxes should all die!
Later, the Ming Dynasty established a tax bureau, which had the same status as the six ministries and was responsible for tax matters!Directly under the jurisdiction of the Cabinet. "Zhu Houzhao snorted coldly, looked at Zhu Wuwu who was not far away and said: "Uncle Emperor, when the time comes, you should cooperate with the cabinet more!
At that time, if someone refuses to cooperate and obstructs the tax system.Those who should confiscate their homes, and those who should exterminate their clans.

You should understand what the couplet means! "

Zhu Wuwu took a deep breath, damn, he was going to take the blame again!
But it’s good to take the blame!

Taking the blame proved that he could contribute to the Ming Dynasty. Last year, he killed so many people, but Zhu Mingwu didn't feel any guilt at all. Instead, he felt excited.

Thinking about those businessmen, they always boasted that they were rich and could rival the country. This really made Zhu Wuli, who was a member of the royal family, dissatisfied.

Damn it, these all belong to their old Zhu family!

These guys deserve to be killed!

"Yes, but the tax collection also needs to be judged based on the amount of personal income! The federation will give some detailed instructions later!" Zhu Houzhao decided to come up with the concept of staged tax collection.

In the second year of Zhengde, Zhu Houzhao had no intention of fighting. It was inevitable that the war with Dayuan would continue.

Although this will also affect the national power of Ming Dynasty, it is the best situation for the current Ming Dynasty.

This can also continue to weaken Dayuan's heritage.

If a country like Dayuan cannot obtain a large amount of resources through war, they will gradually have internal problems.

After all, this is a country that developed by plundering resources. If they cannot plunder resources, where will they get food and money?
Almost all prairie people have this problem.
