Chapter 112 Tax Increase
"I... how could I do such a thing." Bai Yuanyuan scratched her hair. "Xiaoyi, why don't you stop me from ordering."

"Stopped it, didn't stop it." Xiaoyi spread her hands.

Bai Yuanyuan was even more confused, she couldn't feel any hope, it's no wonder that Su Huan had a good impression of her after passing by the lotus pond and mid-autumn festival, she was so ashamed.

"It's over, it's over, what will Brother Su think of me now?" Bai Yuanyuan carefully looked at Xiaoyi's eyes, hoping to get some comfort from her.

Xiaoyi can't lie, but she can't answer directly, which will hurt Bai Yuanyuan's heart, so she can only laugh awkwardly.

"I'm dead." Bai Yuanyuan turned to look for something. "Is there any Bai Ling?"

It really made Bai Yuanyuan find a rope. She looked left and right to find the beam. "I am a big girl with yellow flowers, but I have ended up in such a poor land. How can I show face to others?"

Bai Yuanyuan moved a chair, then stood on it, threw the rope on the beam and tied it in a knot.

Xiaoyi didn't stop her, she was already used to Bai Yuanyuan's character, she just said lightly. "Miss, this death is too ugly."

Bai Yuanyuan stood on the chair, pouted. "Then tell me, what is Brother Su's impression of me?"

"Miss, uncle must have a good impression of you, so don't worry."

"You must be lying to me. It doesn't look good to hang yourself. I'll jump into the well. There is a well outside." Bai Yuanyuan jumped off the chair.

"Miss, it's even uglier to be soaked to death. If my uncle sees it, wouldn't death be disgusting to him?" Xiaoyi said.

Bai Yuanyuan was in a dilemma. "Then what can I do?"

"Miss, I am old and dead."

Bai Yuanyuan pouted. "I'm ashamed to see anyone."

"can."

"No."

"I'm going back." Bai Yuanyuan said.

"Aren't you going to tell my aunt?" Xiaoyi asked.

"What are you talking about, I don't dare to see him anymore." After Bai Yuanyuan finished speaking, she opened the door, and there was a person standing at the door.

Su Huan...it's Su Huan.

How long has he been standing here?Did he hear what I said?It's over, the image collapsed again...

However, things have always backfired.

"Su...ah~~~" Bai Yuanyuan covered her face with her hands and rushed out of the room, running fast with her bare feet, which felt very funny.

Xiaoyi came out. "Uncle, how long have you been standing here?"

"Ahem!" Su Huan felt ashamed of being caught. "I just arrived."

"Really?" Xiaoyi looked at Su Huan suspiciously.

"Yeah, go and chase after your lady." Su Huan said.

"Oh, that's right!" Xiaoyi quickly caught up with him and disappeared.

After the two of them left, the corners of Su Huan's mouth curled up unconsciously, he is really cute.

Capital.

Yang Xingchang's memorial was submitted, and was sent to the imperial case smoothly all the way.

The criminals fled and became bandits. This is a provocation to an empire and a blasphemy against the imperial court, which is absolutely intolerable.

Xu Shiping and others have offended the entire imperial court. If you are allowed to live in peace and everyone follows suit, what order does the empire have, and what face does the imperial court have to control everyone.

Not only to fight, but also to detain Xu Shiping and others to the capital for copying and beheading, so as to set an example for the subjects of the world.

The imperial court naturally supported this matter, but the household department did not cooperate much, and kept saying that there was no money. It was suggested that the emperor send a small amount of troops. Small bandits, a group of mobs, and a thousand soldiers are enough to suppress them.

After some discussion, but because the treasury was empty, they could only order a thousand soldiers to exterminate these bandits.

The thieves are nothing more than a mere thousand, and Liu Xuanyi's young father-in-law volunteered on his own initiative. Even if the old man is not willing, he can only let the young father-in-law try to be a real leader.

Grandpa Liu Xuanyi was very happy when he went to Lin'an County. There was his life-saving benefactor there. Up to now, his life-saving grace has not been repaid.

At this time, there happened to be wars on the border, and those barbarians invaded the border towns on a large scale, burning, killing and looting everywhere, and the people in the border towns were really in dire straits.

The main force of the imperial court will devote great efforts to the struggle with these nomads.

Lin'an County.

Su Huan rode a little donkey to all parts of the county in person.

Today is the fifth time the reservoir has released water. According to records, in the fourth year of Hongtai, the air in the south of the Yangtze River has been very dry since autumn. Until now, it has not rained for four months.

Fortunately, Lin'an County has just completed the construction of water conservancy, and I don't know what will happen to other places.

It was really difficult to survive in ancient times, and being able to eat enough was considered a lucky person.

"Thanks to Mr. Su, otherwise I'm afraid there will be no harvest this year." An old man chatted with another young man in Lintian in the field.

The rice seedlings in August have grown 50.00% before harvesting. If there is no water, a large area may die.

"Yes, this reservoir is really life-saving. God doesn't give you food. I don't know how many people will starve to death in other places this year." The young man sighed.

He has lived here since he was a child. Although he has encountered drought, he has never encountered a drought that lasted for several months like Hongtai's four years.

If it was replaced by the previous water control, I am afraid that we will also face the situation of no water at this time.

"Huh? Master Su." The old man saw a little donkey, and the people on it were wearing simple plain clothes, but the old man still recognized the people on it at a glance.

"Hello, Mr. Su." The young man also waved his hand happily.

Su Huan bowed his hands to the two of them and rode over on the donkey.

After returning to the county government office, Su Huan received an official document from the imperial court to increase taxes, and there was a war on the border.

The Tatars gathered [-] cavalry and attacked the city.

The above statement is that Lin'an County received an additional [-] shi, which is a lot.

Su Huan just posted the official document, and heard a lot of complaints from the people, but there was no way, the payment should be paid.

Collect enough [-] stones and send them to Hangzhou Mansion.

Naturally, the report was submitted to the capital very quickly. Too many counties did not get the full amount of food money. The land of fish and rice in the south was fine, but the northern counties did not pay in full.

"Is this how you work for the imperial court?" Emperor Hong Tai was furious.

"Once the frontier is broken and the Tartars go south, who will bear the consequences?"

"Your Majesty, even Jiangnan has not rained for several months." A red-robed official stood up. "The people everywhere are miserable. I suggest reducing the tax for the people and restarting the business tax."

The red-robed official's words immediately attracted the attention of many pairs of eyes.

"Your Majesty, it is absolutely impossible. How many talents are there in the world? It is only a drop in the bucket, but the people are all over the world. There has never been such a reason in ancient times. Your Majesty, think twice." A red-robed official knelt down.

"Think twice, Your Majesty." A group of red-robed officials knelt down.

"I think that the current issue is to solve the problem of drought. If the world is dry, there will be no grain harvest in all places. If the problem of drought can be solved, the problem of taxation can be easily solved."

A servant of the Ministry of Rites stood up. "I heard that Lin'an County was not affected by the drought. The local people all praised Su Huansu's contribution, and did not mention the county magistrate Yang Xingchang at all. I think that Master Su can be ordered to solve the drought problem."

"Your Majesty please decree."
