At the court meeting, Crocodile Clan Chief Crocodile Sha proposed that the mining and commercial taxes for the middle and high-level members of each tribe could be reduced, and the head tax and land tax that existed during the Snow Emperor's reign would be restored.

It was Shen Guang's policy to change the head tax and land tax into mining tax and commercial tax.

Since the seven parallel universes at this stage are no longer a farming society, those who have a farm at home are not rich people at all.

The real rich people are those who run big businesses and have mines at home.

Therefore, when Shen Guang was in power, he proposed to change the land tax and head tax into mining tax and commercial tax. This policy reduced the burden on the poor at the bottom, but it affected the aristocratic class.

For this reason, the aristocracy often protested against Shen Guang.

Shen Guang's solution was simple. Anyone who protested would be dragged out and killed, and his property would be given to other nobles who supported the reform.

The aristocratic class itself was directly divided and began to fight among themselves. In the end, it was unable to resist the reform at all.

But over time, even other nobles who were allocated property to protest against the nobles found something was wrong. The property they were allocated was only how much. After paying these taxes for thousands of years, all the property they got was handed over, and then they still had to pay Your own money?

But by the time they reacted, it was too late. After thousands of years, Shen Guang had already established his own new team, and they were unable to shake it.

Now that the new king has ascended the throne, there are rumors that she usurped the throne by killing her father. Whether this rumor is true or not, it at least shows that she has a bad relationship with her father, and there may be hope to abolish this policy.

Although Crocodile Sha also knew that Yanyue, like her father, liked to suppress powerful nobles like them and protect the interests of the lower class people.

But what Crocodile Sha understands better is that when a new emperor ascends the throne, he always has to clean up the old emperor's ruling team. The leadership team of this new law are all the confidants of the previous emperor. In order to consolidate power, even if it is against people or things, Yan Yue is very likely to Eighty-nine will also have to deal with them.

Crocodile Evil is gambling, and Yanyue's heart is betting that the people are not as important as the imperial power.

As a result, he never expected that Yanyue's face darkened after hearing his suggestion.

"Crocodile Sha, do you know your sin?"

Crocodile Sha looked confused: "Huh? What crime did this subordinate commit?"

Yanyue: "Huh, your ancestor's body is still cold, and you want me to abolish his policies. The Analects of Confucius says, "It is filial piety if you don't change your father's ambitions three years after his death." But now, it has only been two years since my father passed away. You By making this suggestion, do you want to trap me into being disloyal and unfilial? What is your intention?"

Crocodile Sha was so frightened that he knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I have absolutely no intention of doing this. It's just that these people who implement this policy rely on their power to commit lawlessness. Therefore, therefore..."

Crocodile Evil began to make crazy hints to Yanyue.

Yanyue also understood the implication of his words.

He sneered in his heart: "When a new emperor ascends the throne, he often has to clean up the old emperor's leadership team. This is true, but those who do such things are often mediocre kings who have no confidence in their own rule. But I, Yanyue, am not the one! Compared to Those officials, you nobles are more harmful to me."

Thinking of this, Yanyue yelled angrily.

"Shut up, come here, pull out this thief, Crocodile Sha, and kill him with a stick!"

The crocodile evil screamed like a slaughtering pig: "Lord, spare your life, spare your life!"

When he was pulled out of the temple by several soldiers, there was the sound of sticks hitting his flesh. Ten minutes later, he stopped screaming.

The ones in charge of the execution were the wolf soldiers. They were all poor people living at the bottom of the society. When the crocodile evil man said such words, could you not beat him to death?

Then Yanyue looked at the other clan leaders who were trembling with fear and said firmly.

"Today, I officially inform you that the law of the late emperor is not a law that cruelly punishes the people, but a law that calms and enriches the people. Yue, we must abide by it! If anyone dares to criticize again, Crocodile Sha will serve as a warning!"

All the clan leaders nodded in agreement.

Yanyue's eyes were full of perseverance and determination.
