Chapter 3491 Kill Them

Tang Lingfeng sighed inwardly, looked at each other with Mo Sang and the other family heads, lifted up his robe and knelt down.

"I request your Majesty to exempt the people of the world from paying taxes for three years to relieve the suffering of the people!"

They also admitted it.

I was forced to do nothing.

If you don't agree, you will be thrown into the private sector for three months.

They have been so pampered all their lives and feel uncomfortable even if they eat less than a bowl of bird's nest every day. How can they live the miserable life of the poor without food or water?

One day, maybe ten days can be tolerated, three months?

It's going to kill them!

Yun Dai said seriously: "Including the fields owned by each of your families?"

"Yes, everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the country, not to mention the officials who are worshiped by the people and receive salary from the court. This is even more true. They are also sharing the worries and hardships for Your Majesty."

Now that the decision has been made, of course you still have to say nice things.

Yun Dai was very satisfied: "I know that you are all good officials who love the country and the people, and the people will remember your kindness. Chuochuan, do you hear that? You go and ask the Zhongshu Province to draft the decree, and the Menxia Province to review the specific details. , Shangshu Province will implement it. Who is that?"

Only Zhao Yuanjing could understand the meaning of her rambling words and answered directly: "Han Yu has been feeling unwell recently and has not been in the palace for three days."

Yun Dai frowned.

She didn't come back for a few days, and she became sick and injured.

what's the situation?

"Chuochuan, please make arrangements first. This is a big and important matter."

"I'll go right away." Xiao Chuanchuan also breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, infinite admiration for Her Majesty the Queen surged in his heart.

Tax exemption is not a trivial matter. It is closely related to the interests of the princes and nobles, and will inevitably lead to strong opposition from them.

If His Majesty continues to enforce it, he will also encounter backlash from his subordinates.

After all, a country is so big, and it is up to these officials, large and small, to implement the arrangements. If they violate the rules publicly and secretly, they will make mistakes.

Her Majesty the Queen, who was sitting high on the dragon throne, really had no choice at all.

After all, she is just a human being, not a god.

Now His Majesty is just using a little trick to get the eight major families to take the initiative to accept this matter.

If the tax reduction cannot be implemented and there are so many people who have no food to eat, Yun Dai will have reason to throw these fat-headed nobles into the poor again and let them fend for themselves.

But Yun Dai also knew in her heart that if they agreed verbally, they would inevitably find some way to trick Chen Cang secretly.

The various families are intertwined and there are too many people underneath them.

Even the family heads cannot fully control and know.

Therefore, she must be cautious. If necessary, kill a few chickens to show the monkeys to let them know that she is serious about providing disaster relief!

After everyone dispersed, as soon as Yun Dai returned to Green Garden, six ministers came to her door one after another. Although their reasons were different, their purposes were mostly the same——

Want money.

The state treasury is empty, and salaries have not been paid yet.

Not to mention other aspects.

Those officials who have big families to rely on can do without relying on this salary. But there are still many officials who rely on this salary to support their families.

This cannot be avoided.

Yun Dai also knew that some money had to be spent.

She asked someone to call Xiao Ran.

Xiao Ran is the Minister of Household Affairs and is in charge of money.

But Xiao Ran was lying in bed so sick that he couldn't get up, so he really couldn't come.

Yun Dai herself didn't want to look at the account book.

She has suffered too much in the past few days. She seems to be in good condition on the outside, but in fact she is seriously overdrafted. She urgently needs a good rest and cannot do delicate work.
