"In addition, from now on, the collection method of the shelf tax (real estate tax) and the Momo Law (transaction stamp duty) proposed by Zhao Zan, the judge of the Yuandu Branch of the Ministry of Households, will be abolished, and the Momo Law will be restored to the previous state, and the Qianqian tax will be 20; In the future, if someone builds another house and sells or rents it, or rents out a house that has already been built, the government will levy the housing tax and the housing transaction tax at 1% of the market value or 10% of the rent! ”

As soon as Zhao Ziliang finished speaking, Yuan Zai asked: "Regent, if Zhao Zan's proposal of the intershelf tax and the law of removing strangers is abolished, then how to solve the huge military expenditure?" How to settle the salaries of court officials? ”

Zhao Ziliang said with a smile: "A few days ago, the king asked the Yushitai to check the accounts of the household department, there are big problems in the accounts, and when the property of these corrupt officials was searched, it was found that about fifteen million guan, these are only officials of the household department, if the investigation continues, the king does not know how many more can be found!" Hey, how many troops can fifteen hundred guru support? The court has no money? Is there no money in the treasury? Where does the money go? The people are getting poorer and poorer, and it can be seen that the money has gone into the pockets of these corrupt officials! If the treasury is not enough, at a critical moment, the king can call the shots, borrow 50 million guan from the Western Qin Kingdom, without interest, and repay it in installments after the imperial treasury is full, or offset it with silk, brocade, silkworm, porcelain, tea and other goods! ”

After these words came out, the court officials and princes and ministers had nothing to say, and it was not enough to borrow money between countries in these years, and it was already very telling that Zhao Ziliang could borrow the money from Western Qin to maintain the expenses of the imperial court, and he did not do this for himself.

Zhao Ziliang saw that everyone was silent, and turned his head to look at the emperor: "Your Majesty, what do you think?" ”

Dai Zong could only sigh: "The regent is loyal to the country, and I am very relieved!" I agree with the series of governance measures proposed by the regent just now, so let's do it! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

Zhao Ziliang then said: "Let's go on to talk about the rebellion of the Fengxiang Army, after careful consideration, this king decided to execute Sha Zali, his henchmen and all the more than 8,000 people in the Fengxiang Army・・・・・・

"Hum ・・・・・・" The ministers of the court and the princes and nobles all blew up.

As one of the defenders, Pei Zunqing was the first to object: "Regent, please forgive the old minister for not daring to agree with your decision, Sha Zhali's rebellion is not fake, and his henchmen really deserve to die, but you can't be angry with other generals and soldiers, they are all coerced, this is more than 8,000 lives, you can kill if you say a word, I'm afraid it's not appropriate, right?" ”

The crown prince also stood up and said: "Regent, this palace does not agree to execute everyone, and if you want to kill it, you can only kill Sha Chali and his henchmen, you are also too widely implicated, and it is unkind!" ”

Won Jae also stood up and said: "Regent, this official does not agree to kill everyone, you must know, if you kill everyone, who else will dare to surrender in the future?" This will undoubtedly bring great resistance to the counterinsurgency of the imperial court! ”

After these three bigwigs stood up and spoke, many other officials and princes and nobles all stood up to express their opposition, Zhao Ziliang understood that the Fengxiang army had long been responsible for guarding the safety of the west of Chang'an, so it was easy to make meritorious contributions in the Fengxiang army, and many court ministers and officials and princes and nobles had sent their children into the Fengxiang army. Therefore, most of the opposition is for this reason, and only a few apologists stand up against it for the sake of fame.

The emperor didn't expect Zhao Ziliang to dare to do this this time, and he actually wanted to execute all the Fengxiang army, which was greatly beyond his expectations, how many people would be offended?

Daizong asked, "Uncle, do you have to do this?" Is there no other solution? Many of the generals and colonels of the Fengxiang Army still have merit, so killing them like this is not a denial of all their previous merits, and the government and the opposition are only afraid that the meeting will be judged without virtue! ”

"It must be done!" Zhao Ziliang's tone was extremely resolute, "Your Majesty, Sha Zhali is indeed a bit brave, but he is not yet powerful to the point of being invincible in the world, and his prestige has not reached the point of being universally revered. Even if he is the deputy envoy of the Fengxiang Army, how much prestige does he have that can make the Fengxiang Army follow his court against him? The officers and men of the Fengxiang army rebelled under the threat or coercion of Sha Chali, did those generals and soldiers not consider the consequences of the rebellion? Everyone has a brain, they are not pigs! Obviously, they are more afraid of Shazhali than they are afraid of the court's investigation afterwards, they think that if they don't obey Shazali's orders, they will be killed immediately, and if they obey, they can live for a long time, maybe until they die of old age, the court can't do anything about them, so the vast majority of people are holding this mentality, from this point of view, the prestige of the court has been so weak that even a leading general is not as good! If the imperial court does not make heavy punches and is not ruthless, how can it make the princes of the feudal towns fearful? ”

"So far, not killing is not enough to deter the world, and not killing is enough to justify the punishment! This king wants to use this move to tell everyone that rebelling against the imperial court can only be a dead end, and there is absolutely no chance to get away with it. It is to tell all the soldiers that when their commander leads them to rebel, they must consider whether it is worth rebelling with him! The king also told all the generals and soldiers that when their generals led them to rebel, they could stand up against him, and kill him on the spot or capture him and hand him over to the court, and they could use this to make them prosperous and prosperous, even if it was not impossible to be crowned king! When all the soldiers and generals understand these truths, as long as there are no major mistakes in the administration of the imperial court and no loss of all the people's hearts, no one will dare to rebel casually! Because before rebelling, they had to consider whether there were soldiers to follow, and whether someone would secretly cut off his head and ask the court for merit and reward! Your Majesty, I wonder if that's what the minister said? ”

"Yes, yes, that's how it should be!" Dai Zong slapped his thigh, his face was hideous, obviously hating the rebel generals who had launched a rebellion and frightened him.

Zhao Ziliang continued: "The most important thing for the imperial court today is to regain its prestige, on the one hand, to eliminate maladministration in internal affairs and implement new policies that are beneficial to the people's livelihood, so that the people can see that the imperial court is working hard to make their lives better, and the people will have hope to come down and produce with peace of mind, so that they will not rebel with some people; On the other hand, militarily carry out severe military strikes against the feudal towns that do not obey the orders of the imperial court, eradicate their power, return the territory they occupy to the imperial court, and appoint meritocracy to govern and implement benevolent governance! In this process, as long as anyone dares to rebel against the imperial court, the imperial court will extinguish it with thunderous means, and kill all the rebels to prevent future troubles! Through this cruel and harsh means, it was declared to everyone that the imperial court would not tolerate, compromise, or condone rebellion! ”

Zhao Ziliang's words made Daizong feel like he had taken a reassuring pill, he gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, kill, kill all these traitors!" ”

Daizong's attitude made most of the civil and military ministers and princes and nobles change their faces greatly, and the young prince Pei Zunqing walked out tremblingly and knelt down to Daizong: "Your Majesty can't, it's against the name of Your Majesty's benevolence!" The old minister swears to the death, please take back your majesty's life! ”

Daizong saw Pei Zunqing, an old minister, come out to oppose it, and suddenly hesitated, he looked at Zhao Ziliang who was next, Zhao Ziliang saw Daizong's look and actions from the afterglow of his eyes, he raised his hand and slapped the table angrily, pointed at Pei Zunqing and shouted: "Pei Zunqing, you are a person who sells fame and reputation, do you think that if you stand up and intercede for the rebels of the Fengxiang Army, the people of the world will have to thank you?" They will only use straw to tie you into the appearance of a villain, prick you with needles every night, and curse you to be sent to the eighteenth layer of hell after death. Who suggested in the court that Li Huaixian, Tian Chenghe, Li Baochen and other remnants of the Anshi Rebellion be surrendered and let them continue to guard the three towns of Heshuo? It is you Pei Zunqing, Cui Jian and others, now that you look at it again, they are not much more respectful to the court than An Lushan and Shi Siming! You, the old immortal, are the culprits who caused the situation of the division of the Tang Domain! ”

"You ・・・・・・" Pei Zunqing pointed at Zhao Ziliang and couldn't speak, his lips were purple, his face was blue, his eyes rolled up, and his body fell backwards.

"Master Pei!" The ministers collectively let out an exclamation, and several people immediately ran to his side to check the situation.

Jia Zhi, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, got up and arched his hand: "Your Majesty, Lord Regent, Master Pei has gone!" ”

"Hahaha・・・・・・" Zhao Ziliang laughed: "Sure enough, he is a person who sells fame and reputation, he died in shame, died well, died well!" ”

Jia Zhi, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, immediately ran out and admonished: "Jia Zhi, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites of Weichen, risked his life to admonish, and asked the regent to withdraw his order, and only punish Sha Zali and his cronies, etc., and pardon the other soldiers of the Fengxiang Army!" Otherwise, the regent will leave the name of the butcher! ”

Zhao Ziliang was furious when he heard this, and pointed at Jia Zhi and scolded angrily: "Jia Zhi, Jia Zeng's son!" Jia Zeng was also quite famous back then, the official to advise the doctor to know the system, you Jia Zhi relied on the budding shade of his father, but he did not rank several times, and finally took the examination of the classics and the first, with your level and talent as an official, you can do the Ministry of Rites If no one pushes you in the back, this king will cut off his head and give you a stool to sit on! People like you, who rely on the budding shade of your parents and the help of your friends, also have the face to risk death to come out and admonish? Don't you feel ashamed? If your father Jia Zeng knew that you were so sanctimonious, but in fact he was secretly in the same league with some traitors in the court, he was afraid that he would crawl out of the grave and strangle you! ”

Jia Zhi's face turned blue and white for a while, his trembling fingers pointed at Zhao Ziliang, and his lips trembled: "You ・・・・・・ you ・・・・・ regent, how dare you insult me like this?" Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated! ”

Zhao Ziliang shouted: "Where is Wu Zheng? Let him die and understand! ”

"Yes, King!" In the imperial history, Cheng Wu Yan came out and took out a case file and read: "The four people of the new science and technology Jinshi Bai Shengde and the statement cheated in the answer sheet of this scientific examination, so as to get a high score, and the Jinshi and the first. Afterwards, he was found out in the selection examination of the Ministry of Officials, and through the interrogation of my Yushitai for several days, Bai Shengde, Shushu and others confessed to the fraud in the scientific examination, and confessed that Jia Zhi, the waiter of the Criminal Department, leaked the exam questions to them before the invigilation! By the way, Baek Seung-deok is the grandson of Bae Zunqing and the son of Prime Minister Wonjae's housekeeper・・・・・・"

Zhao Ziliang waited for Wu Zhi to finish reading, looked at Jia Zhi and said coldly: "Jia Zhi, what else do you have to say?" ”

Jia Zhi collapsed to the ground with a pale face.

Zhao Ziliang shouted to the left and right: "Come on, escort Jia Zhi to Dali Temple to ask for guilt!" ”
