Yuan Ziyan hit the end.

The Candle Yin Division arranged a lot of manpower around Song Yuzheng, and Song Yuzheng's words and deeds every day were even clearly recorded.

She found out the reason as soon as she checked, and reported it to Li Chengkong carefully.

Song Yuzheng made two private visits to Weifu.

I went into a few restaurants, listened to a few plays, and chatted with some people, so I listened to the voices of the people.

Ordinary people are still very resistant to a female emperor, and when they sit together, they talk about the government and the world, and they complain a few words.

Of course, they also talked about how Song Yuzheng became the emperor, and he must have forced the emperor to commit it, otherwise, no matter how confused the emperor was, he would not let a woman be the emperor.

Not to mention the crown prince.

The throne was not allowed to be done by the crown prince but was handed over to a princess, and the emperor was not an old fool, how could it be?

Song Yuzheng must have hooked up with Li Chengkong, the king of the south, and had the Candle Yin Division as the backstage, so he was so unscrupulous to force the emperor to abdicate.

This is simply a great rebellion, and the position is not right!

These remarks spread everywhere, and people were very dismissive of Song Yuzheng, the empress, and paid no attention to her tax cuts since she came to power.

Yuan Ziyan began to analyze Li Chengkong.

Song Yuzheng was already exhausted and exhausted from fighting with his ministers, and when he heard the words of these people, he was disappointed and disheartened.

After she became the emperor, she didn't worry about going to war because of Li Chengkong, so she cut her military spending, which saved a lot of expenses, and the imperial court budget was also greatly reduced, so she didn't have to burden the people anymore.

She even started cutting taxes, cutting them by a third at once.

She originally thought that the people would be grateful to her and praise Shengming, even if he was not the first emperor of ancient and modern times, he was also a wise lord.

But I never expected that just because she was a woman, the people were not only not grateful, but still disagreed.

This devastated her, and she felt that she had worked in vain, endured so much hardship for the benefit of the people, and ended up like this.

So there is the meaning of abdication.

Li Chengkong listened? With a smile, he patted Song Yuzheng on the back: "Are you really planning to abdicate?"

"Well, it's really boring to sit on this throne. ”

"Don't want to do something?"

"I finally understand now? It's useless. Song Yuzheng sighed: "I'm different from Sister Dugu." ”

Can Dugu Shuming do it steadily? Is it because of Li Chengkong's strong support? spare no effort to help, so its status is unshakable.

And it is not justifiable for him to want Li Chengkong to help, not to mention that he also wants to sit firmly on his own.

And those ministers are also cunning? Take advantage of Li Chengkong's inability to help each other justifiably and make a big fuss? Try all the tricks, but not hard.

Can these old thieves gain a firm foothold in the court, and all of them are masters of fighting? Pool the wisdom and efforts of everyone? How can you fight yourself?

No matter how powerful your means are, you can only be constrained everywhere? Constrained at every turn? Suffocating? It was so suffocating that it was about to explode.

Li Chengkong said: "I'll help you?"

"No need. Song Yuzheng shook his head and sighed: "Don't waste your efforts? I've seen it through. ”

"It's okay to retreat. Li Chengkong nodded and said, "It's really boring for you to sit on the throne, why bother to find guilt for yourself." ”

"Sister Dugu is different, do a good job!" Song Yuzheng said.

Li Chengkong said: "The environment of the two of you is different, not to mention, those ministers of yours are a little more powerful." ”

"That's right. Song Yuzheng smiled.

Li Chengkong said: "Do you want to help you breathe?"

"How?"

"Beat them up?"

“...... Good idea. Song Yuzheng pursed his lips and smiled.

Thinking of the embarrassed appearance of these ministers' blue noses and swollen faces, she was inexplicably refreshed? It's time to cure them!

Nothing to look at? It's time to fight!

"Jade Zheng? Actually, you're a little too anxious. Li Chengkong muttered: "It takes a process to change people's hearts. ”

Song Yuzheng was silent.

She also knows that she is in a hurry? If you want to change people's minds, I am afraid that it will not be possible to do it in one or two years.

Even if they cut their taxes by one-third, they still need to slowly change their attitudes.

Li Chengkong said: "If you do it for ten or twenty years? The people will get used to it, and they will accept it, and when everyone's life is better, they will remember your good ,...... The human heart is made of flesh. ”

"Hmph, they should know about the reduction of taxes by now!" Song Yuzheng pouted: "All of them are ungrateful, and they don't know kindness!"

Li Chengkong said: "I don't feel it deeply in a year or two, and I will worry that it will be just a moment, and it will be re-assigned in a year." ”

"How is that possible!" Song Yuzheng snorted.

She is not a person who changes her orders overnight, and once she reduces her taxes, she will never add them lightly, unless there is another war.

Now that there is no war, the consumption of the army is reduced, and the income of the treasury is enough to sustain it, and there is no need to increase it.

Li Chengkong said with a smile: "The people are still wary of the emperor, your prestige as the emperor has not yet been erected, the so-called time to see the hearts of the people, they have to carefully observe you for a few years before they can trust." ”

"A few years......" Song Yuzheng hummed in his arms.

Li Chengkong said: "How long are you going to be the emperor?"

"Didn't think about it. ”

"If nothing else, there have been decades. ”

"Now I've done enough. ”

Li Chengkong smiled, she didn't take it seriously, it was just her momentary frustration, and she was still unwilling after all.

As long as you persuade yourself, you can change your mind.

He didn't want to deprive Song Yuzheng of the fun, she still liked to be the emperor, but now she cares too much about the gains and losses.

"These ministers are already old, and they will leave after all, and they can't consume you. ”

"That's for sure!" Song Yuzheng said with a smile.

Qualifications are required for the promotion of court officials, and these first-class masterpieces in the court are all survived from the ninth grade.

One test a year, one transfer every three years.

From the ninth grade, the ninth grade, to the eighth grade, you have to go through three turns, and nine years have passed.

Eight grades go down to the top, and then go down to the seventh, and then another six years, and then go down, if there are no twists and turns in the middle, it will take fifty-one years.

At the age of twenty, he served and could not step into a product until he was seventy-one years old, but the sea is dangerous, how can it be smooth sailing without twists and turns?

Often stepping into a product has to be about 80 years old.

Even if they have a long lifespan, they should be a member when they reach the age of 100, and there are five of them who are about to reach the hurdle.

Thinking of this, she perked up.

After these five old scourges, the pressure on yourself will be much lighter.

Li Chengkong said: "What you have to do now is to absorb henchmen, divide and balance, and you are not weaker than me in the art of power and scheming." ”

"But they're more scheming. ”

"No matter how good they are at power, but their status determines that they have to be restrained, how can they compare to you?"

“...... Let the Holy Maiden help me. Song Yuzheng said slowly: "I can also find a group of loyal ones." ”

"The heart of man changes, and if he is faithful today, he may not be tomorrow. ”

"Don't you want to help?" Song Yuzheng sneered and stared back at him.

Li Chengkong smiled and said, "Do you really want to let the holy woman go?"

"I'm going to fight these old thieves well, and this time I'm going to stop being angry and deal with them. Song Yuzheng reflected on herself, and her emotions were too easily stimulated.

"Good. Li Chengkong said: "The two holy women are going to help you." ”

Song Yuzheng suddenly smiled.

"Jade Zheng," Li Chengkong said with a smile, "It turns out that you came here to find a helper, not to see me." ”

Song Yuzheng glanced at him: "That's right!"
