Daqin: You were allowed to supervise the country, but not enthroned!

Chapter 243

The Ming Dynasty originally had a commercial tax, and there were many various commercial taxes, but the collection was still relatively small.

Now Yingjing is just giving some details about the commercial tax, increasing the items that can be taxed, and reducing the proportion of commercial tax.

As a result, although these merchants in the capital felt a lot of trouble, in general, the commercial taxes they had to pay were less than in the Ming Dynasty.

It is indeed a great thing for profit-seeking businessmen to pay less tax.

So now businessmen and ordinary people have begun to support Dasheng's national policy, and there are still some high-ranking officials who are very dissatisfied with these policies of Yingjing, but their feelings are not within the scope of Yingjing's consideration!

It's just that these things are still temporary. When Yingjing truly unifies the entire Daming, there will definitely be some changes in all of this.

But as far as the current situation is concerned, these actions of Yingjing have stabilized Ming's people's hearts on a large basis.

And now these capitals have also begun to regain their vitality after going through the turmoil caused by these thieves.

After Yingjing ordered Xia Houyuan and Qi Jiguang to march eastward, and after a new decree was issued in the capital, Yingjing waited in the capital for officials from Dasheng to come.

Although now, he has also exchanged some talents for emergency to become officials, but Ying Jing also understands very well that these officials are just a drop in the bucket for Daming!

And he has developed in Dasheng for four years, and he has trained a group of officials who are absolutely trustworthy, who can completely manage all the current affairs of Dasheng.

Compared with Dasheng, the affairs of Daming must be more troublesome.

All the people in Dasheng are easier to manage, because these people are absolutely loyal to Yingjing, but these people in Daming are completely different. One, only some powerful officials can be sent over to stabilize the people here.

So Yingjing directly transferred some old officials and generals from Dasheng.

When Dasheng's people are together, they will start to occupy the front of Daming.

While waiting here, Yingjing wandered around the streets and alleys of the capital with nothing to do, to see how the common people reacted to these new policies.

Let's see how the anger in the capital has recovered, and what things need further improvement.

Now Yingjing is in normal clothes and under the protection of a few guards in casual clothes, wandering around in the capital.

Feeling a little tired from swimming, Yingjing found a restaurant to sit down, drink tea, and listen to some books.

But at this moment, there was a sound of pipa in this wine shop.

Then an ancient pipa song lingered in the whole restaurant, and everyone in the restaurant was attracted by this pipa song.

All eyes turned to a veiled woman in the wine shop, holding a pipa and playing.

Yingjing is no exception, even as the emperor of Dasheng, Yingjing has heard a lot of music, and the court musicians of Dasheng are not bad, but the pipa played by this woman makes people have a very strong sense of substitution. Feeling, as if it can bounce into people's hearts.

In this song, Yingjing heard a lot of emotions, sadness, heartache, and deep sadness.

It seems to be telling the listeners that everyone living in this world feels that all beings are suffering.

Although it is a sad and tragic song, in Ying Jing's eyes, the person who plays the music must have the style of everyone.

Just when Yingjing was now replaced by this song, suddenly an angry voice shouted: "Stop it for me, don't play it, it's annoying!"

In this anger, the sound of the pipa stopped abruptly, and the woman playing the pipa looked towards the angry sound, and saw a man in brocade clothes in the wine shop, looking at the woman playing the pipa with her face covered , sneered and said: "Don't think I don't know who you are! You are the concubine of the traitor Wu Sangui, Chen Yuanyuan! Am I right?"

"Wu Sangui surrendered to Houjin because of you. Now everyone inside and outside the capital doesn't know. Who would have thought that a woman like you has the face to come out and sing!"

"You woman is really a beauty, a disaster for the country and the people! Shameless!"

Suddenly, all the guests in the restaurant looked at the masked woman in astonishment and shock.

Even Yingjing was a little surprised, he didn't expect that this woman would be Chen Yuanyuan, one of the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai.

And even though Chen Yuanyuan's face is covered with a veil, it can be seen that her face has turned pale all of a sudden, and there are still tears in her eyes.

She didn't continue playing, but silently picked up the pipa and turned to leave.

But no one could have imagined that just when she was about to leave, someone stood in front of her and blocked her way. It was the brocade-clothed guest just now.

The brocade-clothed guest sneered and said, "Why are you running? Why? Don't you dare to show your true colors?"

"Let everyone see what kind of troublesome beauty you are, and you can actually bring disaster to the country and the people!"

"Do you know, if it wasn't for you, Daming would definitely not be where he is today!"

"If it wasn't for you, why would Wu Sangui surrender to Houjin again!"

"You said that a person like you has no right to live in the world!"

"Everyone said, what qualifications does such a person have to live in this world?"

The words of the brocade-clothed guest immediately won the approval of countless people in the restaurant.

"Yes, such a confidante deserves to die, she should be immersed in a pig cage!"

"It would be better if this beauty's disaster sinks into the river, otherwise, we don't know what harm it will do to the country and the people in the future!"

"Damn it, this beauty is a disaster, and the people of our capital have been harmed by you!"

"..."

Faced with everyone's verbal criticism, Chen Yuanyuan's face became even paler, "I'm not, I'm not, I'm not! I'm not! I'm not!"

She could only defend herself in such a helpless and useless manner, with a bit of despair in her eyes.

She is just Wu Sangui's concubine. When Wu Sangui took refuge in Houjin, she was already in danger, but why now, all the mistakes are hers alone!Damn it's her again?

Chen Yuanyuan didn't know how this happened, she tried her best to keep herself alive, could it be that all she got in return was the world's scolding?If she had known this was the case, she should have died at the hands of the bandits!
But those who scolded her could not see the despair in her eyes at all, and no one would have any sympathy and pity for Chen Yuanyuan. It seemed that Wu Sangui's defection to Houjin was caused by Chen Yuanyuan. Seeing that, it was like taking Wu Sangui to surrender, but she had never done anything like that! !
