Reborn Pampered Queen

When the Xue family's affairs came to an end, it ushered in the most important spring ploughing season of the year.

Last year, according to the arrangement of King Jin's house, the farmers who reclaimed the barren mountain farmland were busy.

In order not to delay this year's harvest, Xiao Ruixuan decided to purchase seeds, farm tools and other things from the Jin palace, and distribute them to the farmers who newly reclaimed farmland for free.

And as the battle in the first line of Qiao an is with busy feet, three home but not into.

Xia Yi is bored at home alone, so she goes back to Yinzhou city to visit Jiang Wan.

Jiang Wan originally thought that it would be better to be busy with spring ploughing, but he never thought that in May and June, the crops in the field were heading, and Qiao an and them still could not rest.

"I didn't expect farming to be so frustrating." Jiang Wan couldn't help sighing.

"As soon as I hear that, I know you don't do farming." After hearing this, Xiao Ruixuan made fun of her and said, "how can it be overnight to grow crops? Irrigation, fertilization, weeding, catching insects which can be handled at will? That is to say, only after working hard for these three seasons can we really get a bumper harvest and let the farmers rest in peace. "

It was after listening to Xiao Ruixuan's words that Jiang Wan realized that she really knew nothing about farming, so she would often go out to see the growing crops outside the city.

Looking at the green connected with the sky, she thought it was the most beautiful scenery between heaven and earth.

However, when everyone was looking forward to the harvest this year, there was a plague of locusts in the suburbs of Beijing.

Large areas of farmland that locusts fly over have been gnawed away.

Xiao Ruixuan, who got the news, ordered people to send a message to alert everyone to the locust plague. Cheng Zixiu, however, was also studying whether there was any way to kill insects without harming crops.

Fortunately, the grasshoppers in the suburbs of Beijing did not fly to the northwest, but the imperial court used this as an excuse to increase their taxes in the northwest by nearly 50%.

When Xiao Ruixuan received the news, he almost fell a white jade tea cup.

"Are they really afraid that we'll have a good life?" Xiao Ruixuan said angrily in his study, "it's not easy to collect more than three or five dues, which gives the people some hope. If they increase the tax, the people will have to smash the pot and sell iron."

"If the country does not love the people, how can the people love their country?" Mr. Qi on one side can only sigh.

But Mr. Jin was more worried than the two of them: "but the imperial court must have made an order. Are we following or not?"

As soon as his voice fell, everyone in the room looked at Xiao Ruixuan.

Xiao Ruixuan hesitated for a long time, and then spewed out two words firmly: "no

Then they heard someone in the room take a breath. Then someone reminded Xiao Ruixuan, "if you don't hand it in, is it a blatant protest?"

"Of course it counts!" Mr. Jin replied, "and there is something else to be done

We can welcome the imperial court's attack on us. "

Everyone in the room looked dignified.

If there is a war with the imperial court, the losses and expenses will not be comparable to the taxes.

What's more, it may be accused of "rebellion" by the imperial court. They can't help thinking it over.

However, Xiao Ruixuan sneered: "this fight can't be fought. The National Treasury has been unable to make ends meet in recent years. Otherwise, the imperial court would not take the conservative Yin banner and replace minchong, who is famous for his radical reform."

"Min Chong has been making little trouble since he came to power because he didn't have a firm foothold," Xiao Ruixuan said with the crowd. "Now it's his second year in office, and the imperial court has thrown out a policy of tax hikes. First, min Chong needs political achievements. Second, the State Treasury really has no money, Don't forget that last year, Empress Dowager Jiang embezzled 5 million taels of military expenditure to rebuild and expand the palace in Xishan, and everyone complained about it. "

"If you want a horse to run and don't feed it, there's no such good thing in the world." Xiao Ruixuan said with a smile, "I really think everyone is a fool

？”

"But if there's something that's not afraid of ten thousand, it's just in case. If there's any one who wants to earn military merit, he'll be ordered to go to war?" Some people still asked uneasily.

"That's just right. At that time, we will publicize the people in the northwest and tell them that we are fighting for them!" Xiao Ruixuan said with a smile, "water has always been able to carry boats and overturn them. I'd like to see if they have the courage to risk the world's great injustice."

Listening to Xiao Ruixuan's talk, Mr. Qi always nodded with approval. When all the staff in the study were gone, he deliberately lagged behind a few steps. Then he and Xiao Ruixuan said with a meaningful smile: "shiziye, you are more determined than Wang Ye in those years. If he has half of your courage and insight, it's really not sure who is sitting on the top now."

After hearing this, Xiao Ruixuan said with a modest smile: "the strength of Jianwu emperor in that year was obvious to all. It was the wise man's decision not to rashly start because of the bad weather, the bad land and the discord between people."

After listening, Mr. Qi burst out laughing.

"Don't be greedy! Don't be rash! Good! Good! Good Mr. Qi clapped his hands and laughed. After finishing this sentence, he left with a big stride, looking very sad

Ruixuan was at a loss.

Mr. Qi was the most important staff of the king of Jin at that time, and according to his personality, he was not a person who would say such things to himself.

What does Mr. Qi want to do?

Xiao Ruixuan couldn't understand it for a moment.

Sure enough, after Xiao Ruixuan refused to pay taxes according to min GE's old and new tax rules, Jiang Xuan burst into a rage in the palace.

"What does he mean by Xiao Ruixuan? Do you want to fight against the court openly? " These two years in the harem, let ginger that originally not very slender waist increased a circle, the face of more than the horizontal meat is because she is angry and followed by shaking.

Since Prince Rong in Southwest China was brought down by Baiyue Kingdom, only prince Jin in Northwest China has become prince an's great trouble.

As a result, he went down the well and said to Jiang Yi, "but I'm just a yellow mouthed child. I just received the seal of the prince of Jin, so I don't know if I want to play a powerful role."

"But he is not the prince of Jin!" Jiang Yi said coldly, "fortunately, I didn't approve Jin Feng's fold at the beginning, otherwise I didn't know it

How crazy he will be

"That's right. If children don't understand, they have to be taught." Xiao Tongqing also said with a bad smile, "the key is that he also has a bad head. The prince of honor in the southwest heard that the taxes of the Jin palace in the northwest had not been paid. They also refused to pay taxes according to the new taxes on the pretext of fighting with the state of Bai Yue last year."
