I, Ding Xiu, am the number one killer of Gu Long Martial Arts!

Chapter 215 The emperor can judge the earth, but the sword can break the sky!
  In the middle of the night, in the Qianqing Palace, there was a discussion about the world, and a huge gamble involving life and death.

The young emperor, the Crown Prince of Nan Wang, two people with exactly the same body shape and appearance, like two people reflected in a mirror, under the plans of Ye Gucheng and Ding Xiu, faced each other tonight, discussing swords, Tao, and the world.

"Since ancient times, dynasties have risen and fallen, and powers have changed. They appear to be different, but in fact they are the same."

Facing the emperor's question, the Crown Prince of Nanwang responded proudly: "Qin: It prospered due to reforms and died due to the establishment of a prince; Han: The Western Han Dynasty was disrupted by relatives, the Eastern Han Dynasty was disrupted by eunuchs; Wei and Jin: Cao Wei was destroyed by powerful ministers, and the Jin Dynasty was destroyed by powerful officials; Sui and Tang Dynasties: The Sui Dynasty rose and fell due to the nobility, the Tang Dynasty rose and fell due to Jiedu envoys; the Song Dynasty: died due to emphasizing culture and neglecting military affairs; as for our dynasty: it started with hard work, but in the future it will surely fall due to party and government!"

"Um?!"

Hearing these words, the young emperor couldn't help but frown: "Under my rule, the Ming Dynasty was not only prosperous, but also a well-connected government and people. How could it be destroyed by party politics? The prince's words are too alarmist."

"is it?"

Prince Nan Wang said: "You are high above the temple, sitting and watching the civil and military officials, forming cliques and fighting each other. You think you have all the power under your control, but do you know how much land there is in this great world? These lands, the vassal officials and officials , How many are occupied by the aristocratic families, and how many are occupied by ordinary people?"

"This"

While the emperor was hesitating, Prince Nan Wang had already asked and answered his own question: "If the land in the world were divided into ten parts, the officials of the vassal and the aristocratic families would occupy [-]% of the land, while the common people could barely occupy less than [-]%."

"how can that be?!"

The emperor said solemnly: "Have I ever seen the treasury taxation? If ordinary people only occupy [-]% of the world's land, how can they pay such an amount of taxation? What the prince said is a big mistake."

"You are the one who is wrong!"

Prince Nan sneered: "Do you know where those taxes come from?"

The emperor was silent when he heard this.

But Prince Nan Wang continued: "It seems that you don't know that Ming Dynasty's taxes all come from the common people's [-]% harvest. There are all kinds of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, which are beyond your imagination. However, because of the fame of the aristocratic family, they obviously Sitting on tens of millions of acres of fertile land, we don’t have to pay a penny in taxes.”

The emperor said solemnly: "Taxes cannot be paid to the scholar-bureaucrats. This is the law of the ancestors, and the law of the ancestors cannot be changed!"

"Why immutable?"

Prince Nan sneered: "Is it immutable, dare not change, or are you unwilling to change? Maybe it's all three. But if things go on like this, people's income will be less and less, but the taxes they have to pay will be more and more. The more there are, it only takes a small opportunity, such as a natural disaster, to completely collapse the entire Ming Dynasty."

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

The emperor seemed a little angry. He shouted loudly: "They are just a group of unarmed mud-legged people. Our Ming Dynasty has countless loyal ministers and good generals. How can they be shaken?"

"is it?"

Prince Nan Wang sarcastically said: "You seem to have forgotten that before Emperor Taizu became emperor, he was just an unarmed mud-legged man. The people are water, and the king is the boat. Water can carry a boat, but it can also overturn it."

In this room, the emperor talks about the world!

On the other side, the swordsmen compete!
