Qian Qianyi warmly invited him as a teacher, how could Qu Shiyun decline! So Qu Shiyun bowed his hand and said, "In this way, it will disturb the teacher." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ”

Soon, the two drank wine, the friendship between teachers and students can be described as harmonious, on the wine table, Qian Qianyi persuaded Qu Shiyun to drink from time to time, Qu Shiyun was a literati, the amount of wine was not large, and after a few glasses, he always excused himself, but Qian Qianyi was too enthusiastic, and Qu Shiyun could only sacrifice his life to accompany the gentleman.

was violently poured by Qian Qianyi, and soon Qu Shiyun was drunk and unconscious.

"Rise, Rise,"

Qian Qianyi called a few times, but Qu Shiyun couldn't hear it anymore, and threw himself on the table and fell asleep.

At this time, Liu Wenshan also walked in and said, "The proprietor has also drunk a lot of wine, you might as well take a rest first, and leave it to the students here." ”

Qian Qianyi touched his temples and rubbed them, and said, "So there is Mr. Lao." ”

After speaking, Qian Qianyi went to the backyard to rest with the support of the maid.

On the morning of the second day, hundreds of officials were waiting in the Fengtian Palace, and Bi Ziyan tried hard to find Qu Shiyun to no avail, and he couldn't help but say anxiously: Why hasn't this field come yet! This is about to hold a court meeting, and then how can the old man deal with this civil and military official!

Compared with Bi Ziyan's eagerness, Qian Qianyi stood there, as leisurely as an old monk entering the meditation, with a completely calm feeling.

"The Emperor has arrived"

A eunuch shouted.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

A group of civil and military officials shouted in unison.

Chongzhen walked up to the royal platform, sat on the dragon chair, and said, "Zhongqing's family is flat." ”

"Thank you, long live my emperor, long live, long live."

After the civil and military forces got up, Chongzhen said: "Regarding the reduction and exemption of tea tax in Jiangnan, do you still have something to say?" ”

At this time, Qian Qianyi first stood up and gave a salute, saying: "Back to the emperor, the reduction and exemption of Jiangnan tea tax is the trend of the times, and the people's livelihood is expected, and I also ask the emperor to send down grace so that the people of Jiangnan can recuperate." ”

At this time, several officials stood up and said: "The floods in the south of the Yangtze River are worse every day, and the people look forward to the grace of the imperial court and the emperor's favor." ”

"What Lord Qian said is extremely true, now there are tens of thousands of people in Jiangnan who are closed and closed, if they don't drop their grace, I am afraid that the people will not be able to continue! Please also ask the emperor to play. ”

，，，，，，

Bi Ziyan couldn't bear it, and stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the first emperor finally collected tea tax in Jiangnan, and after many difficulties, he had 600,000 taels of silver a year in the warehouse today. ”

Qian Qianyi immediately retorted: "What is the truth of what Master Bi said? The emperor is wise and martial, if he starts another expedition in the future, will the gentry in Jiangnan dare to disobey the will of heaven? Now that the floods in the south of the Yangtze River are getting worse and the people are getting harder, you have repeatedly obstructed the emperor from lowering the benevolent government, what are your intentions! ”

"Yes, since ancient times, benevolent government has benefited the country and the people, who has ever heard the truth that benevolent government is misleading the country, Lord Bi must have something unspeakable, otherwise how could he prevent the emperor from widely exercising benevolent government!"

"This is extremely true, all the civil and military officials in the court are in favor of the emperor's grace, and only Lord Bi does not allow it, isn't there an ulterior secret, so what?"

All of a sudden, many officials launched an attack on Bi Ziyan, but Bi Ziyan could not support him alone, and the situation in the court was already one-sided.

Chongzhen looked at it on the dragon chair that was true, most of the officials in the court agreed with the tax reduction and exemption in Jiangnan, and they all said it righteously and awe-inspiringly, and every sentence was reasonable, so he couldn't help but make a decision in his heart. Besides, the reduction and exemption of taxes in Jiangnan is only an expedient measure, if the treasury is tight in the future, and then the levy will be levied, and the royal brother can levy taxes in Jiangnan back then, can't I?

So Chongzhen motioned for everyone to be quiet, and then said: "Since the people of Jiangnan are looking forward to grace, just like looking forward to the rain after a long drought, then I will approve it, from today onwards, the Jiangnan tea tax will be exempted and the people of Jiangnan will be given recuperation." ”

After hearing this, Qian Qianyi and the other officials were overjoyed, and they all knelt down and cheered loudly: "My emperor is wise, long live my emperor, long live, long live." ”

Since Chongzhen has granted it, the matter of reducing and reducing the Jiangnan tea tax has been set in stone, and there is no change.

Bi Ziyan has a thousand unwillingness and ten thousand unwillingness in his heart, and he can only accept the reality, so he no longer argues, and stands there without speaking.

At this time, the civil and military officials who were looking at the imperial court were all satisfied, and without him, this reduction and exemption would bring a lot of money to these officials. And how can this not be exciting!

At this moment, I only heard Chongzhen say again: "The Jiangnan tea tax has been exempted, but the treasury is tight, so I have to ask, I want to transfer the difference of 600,000 taels to Shaanxi on behalf of the people, what do the Qing family think?" ”

After Chongzhen finished speaking, he looked at the civil and military officials with confidence, and the idea of being handed over by Shaanxi was the method that Chongzhen racked his brains to come up with yesterday. In this way, the tea tax can be exempted in Jiangnan without straining the national treasury. It's a win-win-win-win

As for why Shaanxi pays this difference? That naturally has the truth of Chongzhen. Chongzhen thinks so, Shaanxi is related to the Central Plain, from Baoji in the west, to Tongguan in the east, 350 kilometers long from east to west, with an area of 36,000 square kilometers, which is 800 miles of Qinchuan fertile field! How much food do you have to collect in a year? Paying 600,000 taels of silver is not yet hand-to-hand.

As soon as Chongzhen's words came out, the officials on the scene were all dumbfounded, now Shaanxi is thousands of miles away, and there are countless displaced people, if the tax of 600,000 taels of silver is added, wouldn't it force them to rebel!

Now the second king of Baishui is still making trouble there, and this chaos has not been calmed down until now, if this will continues, wouldn't it force out countless second kings? All these civil and military officials present were eager to ask the same question: Your Majesty, how did you come up with such an idea of "passing through heaven and earth"!

However, if you want to think like this, but you can't say this, wouldn't it be a slap in the face to say it at this time! Didn't you see the emperor's smug expression? The so-called companion is like a tiger, if you are not careful, you can attract the disaster of killing, this kind of thing abounds in all dynasties, and everyone has been an official for two or three years, can you still not see through this thing?

So immediately, an official patted his ass and said: "The emperor is wise, thinking that the fertile fields of Qinchuan in Shaanxi Province, which are 800 miles away, have the reputation of granaries since ancient times, and it is simply not a problem to pay 600,000 taels of silver on behalf of this area." My Emperor Shengming. ”

The so-called dead and poor Dao is not as good as a dead Dao friend, anyway, the money is handed over by others, what does it matter to me! Shaanxi's civil unrest is not one or two, one chaos is peaceful, and ten hundred chaos is also peaceful, anyway, I don't need to carry a knife to go into battle!
