The Record of Righteousness
Chapter 224 Tax Increase
After one night, the entire Li Mansion was filled with blood!
Except for Li Changshou's wife Lu, nearly a hundred other concubines, servants, and maids were brutally murdered, with rivers of blood flowing! In just one night, everyone was wiped out!
The county government sent several officers but they couldn't cope with it. Mrs. Lu was seeking death and survival. When she woke up, her whole family was dead. Even her four children were lying in a pool of blood. They were crying to death. Finally, The Jin Yiwei was alarmed, and the commander Long Shuo personally went to the Li Mansion to supervise the case, and issued an arrest warrant. People were arrested randomly all over the city, causing an uproar and panic.
As for the king who had just become the King of the Hundreds of Jinyiwei, he was new to the world, so he was heartbroken by such a blow. Although the four younger brothers and sisters were half-brothers, after years of getting along, blood was thicker than water, and the whole family was killed. Fortunately, his mother had escaped the disaster, so he asked Long Shuo for half a month's menstrual leave to attend to the funeral.
This funeral was held with great fanfare for more than half a month, but Wan Qing was not present. Wang Qiu didn't care in his heart. He was not familiar with his uncle, and besides being angry in his heart, he was very confused. In the past, this uncle He took care of himself in every possible way, so why did he not show up when such a big thing happened at home?
On the same day, he went to see Wan Qing, the admiral of Dongchang.
"Wang Qiu, what do you want to do with this governor? Are you used to living in the capital these days?"
As soon as Wan Qing heard that his nephew was coming, he knew his purpose very well, so he just showed him a seat and served him a cup of tea.
Seeing Wan Qing looking so carefree, Wang Chou felt a little dissatisfied and said in a deep voice:
"Thanks to my uncle's concern, my nephew invites you to come to my house to attend the funeral. My father and brothers and sisters will be buried in three days. You"
With that said, Wang Qiu took out a white invitation from his arms and placed it on Wan Qing's desk.
But before the invitation in his hand was placed on the table, Wan Qing moved his fingertips and the invitation exploded into pieces. His figure swooped in front of Wang Qiu, and a big skinny hand was already It's on Wang Qiu's neck!
"Cough cough"
"You just said, who is your father?!"
Wan Qing's face was cold, his voice was cold, his eyes were full of anger, and the strength in his hands increased. He could easily end Wang Qiu's life with just a slight squeeze.
At this time, Wang Qiu felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, his face was red from holding back, and in front of the fear of death, he squeezed out two words from his mouth in fear:
"Happy king!"
After hearing these two words, Wan Qing slowly released his strength and then suddenly withdrew his clutches. Wang Qiu was still a young man who had never seen much of the world. At this time, he was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground, covering his throat and retching. Wan Qing's figure In a flash, he returned to the tiger-headed chair just now, glaring at his good nephew with a hint of anger in his tone.
"It's really your job to accept a lowly man with slim legs as your father! I advise you to recognize your identity at all times and know your last name!"
"Also, from now on, we are only allowed to call our governor. I don't want to hear the word uncle again! Do you understand?!"
Wang Qiu said hurriedly:
"I understand the humble position! I understand the humble position!"
"Well, then let's go to the Governor's Mansion to get some money to use. Thousands and tens of thousands are not a big deal, so feel free to use it!"
Wang Qiu agreed, but still didn't leave. Wan Qing couldn't help but frowned and asked, "What else is there?"
Wang Qiu gritted his teeth and asked:
"Duke Gong, are you going to attend the funeral at the humble official's house? I think my mother will be somewhat relieved if you go."
Not knowing whether Wang Qiu was really stupid or pretending to be stupid, Wan Qing laughed angrily and slapped his palm on the table.
"Hahahaha! The Governor's majestic Marquis Jingzhong! The Crown Prince's Taibao, the Crown Prince's Grand Master! Participating in the funeral of a commoner?! Wang Qiu, did you get kicked in the head by a donkey?! Or are you here to make fun of the Governor!? "
"You underestimate me too much! Don't rely on your mother's relationship to be so self-righteous! Get out of here!"
Wang Qiu was not angry when the order to expel guests was issued, and said:
"Governor, I just want you to let me handle the thieves after I catch them!"
"Let's talk about it then. I have nothing to do with this matter. You have to take revenge yourself!"
. . .
But he said that Wanqing had been in seclusion for more than a month and took control of the government again. He had not forgotten the tasks assigned to him by the emperor!
In the next few days, Fan Qihong, the second assistant to the cabinet, asked the court to significantly increase commercial taxes and agricultural taxes to increase the revenue of the national treasury!
Wan Qing was wearing a python robe and sitting on the throne of the Supervisor of Ceremonies, holding a vermilion brush and sketching on the memorial. Judging from his serious appearance, he seemed to be a loyal minister serving the country and the people!
Seeing that the tax increase policy was unanimously approved by the cabinet, Xu Chunxian said worriedly:
"Duke, the imperial court has suddenly increased taxes hugely. I'm afraid the merchants and people can't bear it. What should we do if there is a rebellion?"
Wan Qing glanced at him disdainfully and chuckled:
"Haha, rebel? I'm not afraid of them rebelling! I have three million soldiers in the Kingdom. Anyone who rebels will be beheaded! I don't believe that these common people can defeat our Kingdom. Soldiers? They will never dare to rebel as long as they are hungry."
"What's more, this year there is another famine and flood in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. If they don't pay more taxes, where will the soldiers and generals get paid? Where will the people's disaster relief food come from?!"
Xu Chunxian flattered:
"The governor is wise! He is a great official of our great emperor by cutting off the rich and subsidizing the poor!"
Wan Qing laughed, then took out another notebook, opened it, and saw that it was full of neat names!
These people are prisoners sentenced to death from all over the country, gathered in the court, and there are many who are extremely evil. As long as the red pen in his hand makes a mark, the person marked will lose his head!
Wan Qing's eyes were erratic. He looked at the memorial again and again. In the end, only less than half of the names were marked. The rest of the people were not marked. Naturally, they were safe and sound and saved their lives!
As for why, it was naturally because these death row prisoners had a great relationship and spent a huge price to buy this life.
Xu Chunxian was surprised:
"Oh, Governor, you are so kind and compassionate, and you have let so many death row prisoners go. I really admire you! I admire you!"
"Hahaha! Bring the imperial seal and stamp it with the seal!"
Wan Qing took the imperial seal from Xu Chunxian. It was as big as a baby's head. He held it in his hand and touched it. His eyes were full of attachment to the seal. Then he stamped it on the memorial!
Soon, the national policy on this memorial will be distributed from the Imperial Household Department to the six ministries and the Dali Temple. After that, these government offices will distribute it to all parts of the country and implement it comprehensively!
