Time flies by in the busyness, and soon the Spring Festival is coming. Amidst the cheers and steaming, the whole country is celebrating. Even the non-stop road construction team of the Ministry of Industry has been on holiday for the past two days. All the workers of the road construction team

They all went home to celebrate the New Year.

Spring Festival, a festival that foreigners cannot understand!

Naturally, the emperor could not rest in front of such an important festival. Although there was no need to hold court meetings at this time, other things still had to be held, such as worshiping the Ancestral Temple, worshiping heaven and earth, and after that, more etiquette

There are ceremonies to be held, such as spring plowing, silkworm kissing, etc.

Fortunately, now that he has married the queen, he has someone to share the responsibility for many things. Even if he doesn't, his brother Zhu Youjian can handle it. Just this year during the Spring Festival, he named Zhu Youjian the King of Xin, just like the title in history.

The other three sisters have also been given the title of princess, and they can get married only when they are older.

In the midst of the hustle and bustle, the festival has passed and the Lantern Festival arrives unexpectedly. The next day, every family rolls and eats glutinous rice balls and puts out lanterns. Although the Ming Dynasty is no longer prosperous at this time, it is still very lively during the festival, especially this year.

, because people in the capital have jobs every day and have saved some money at home, they can afford a large number of lanterns, which makes the Lantern Festival night as bright as day.

The night was deep and starry. Standing on the tower of Daming Gate, Zhu Youxiao held Zhang Yan's hand and looked at the colorful and colorful lanterns on Qipan Street outside, feeling happy in his heart.

At this moment, there were only two people, Zhu Youxiao, on the entire city tower. The intimate and romantic atmosphere made the other two concubines want to go crazy with jealousy. However, there was no way, the emperor loved the queen who was somewhat rigid and strict.

Zhang Yan was also a little confused. In fact, she disobeyed the emperor's wishes in many places, and often tried to persuade the emperor to make him angry, which was not what she wanted. However, the emperor loved her very much, and she didn't know what was going on.

However, Zhang Yan is a smart and virtuous woman. She will not be arrogant because of this. Instead, she will abide by her duties in the harem and fulfill her duties as a queen. She will do everything she should do and will not interfere at all when she should not do it.

Even his father, Zhang Guoji, asked someone to come over with a message a few days ago and ignored him.

Zhu Youxiao held his weak and boneless little hand and took Zhang Yan for a walk at the top of the city. Looking at the prosperous scenery that seemed like a prosperous age, he really felt like he was in heaven.

However, it is not enough, far from enough. The people of Ming Dynasty are still too poor. Apart from farming, they have no additional income. Many people, including Qiandi, do not understand his idea of ​​exempting agricultural taxes.

The reason why Zhu Youxiao did this was actually for one reason.

Farmers are so poor!

If a country wants to develop and its economy wants to transform, its citizens must have purchasing power. Now that the great voyages are underway, there are overseas markets, and the Maritime Silk Road is also extremely prosperous, but these are of no benefit to the farmers at the bottom, because all

All the money flowed into the hands of those wealthy families.

They occupy the most fields and control the smuggling channels. The only ones that are really affected are some weavers or tea farmers. Others, in this era, cannot enjoy any dividends.

This situation was absolutely intolerable to Zhu Youxiao. Even if he did not hesitate to smash the entire Ming Dynasty, he would reverse this situation.

Tax exemption is a must, as for the nationalization of land...

Thinking of this, Zhu Youxiao was very hesitant. Because of the special circumstances, special education, and special experience, he really could not accept the results of land privatization. This phenomenon was like a fish bone stuck in his throat.

Like a lump in the throat!

"Baozhu, do you want all the land in the world to become our family's?" Zhu Youxiao asked softly, looking at Keren'er next to him.

"Ah! Long Live Lord, this... how is this possible? If the land has been turned into an imperial village, what will others be planting?" Zhang Yan covered her mouth in surprise, widened her eyes, and looked at the emperor in disbelief. How could he do this?

Do you have such a wonderful idea?

"But you also know about my imperial estate. I have given it to farmers for planting, and I don't charge rent!" Zhu Youxiao explained with a smile.

If all land is not nationalized, the land cannot be redivided. Landless peasants are still landless peasants, landlords are still landlords, and they can still collect rent. Many landlords do not have to pay taxes, even if they are exempted from rent.

The benefit is not great either.

"But...but..." Zhang Yan didn't know what to say. She pouted and looked at the emperor in confusion, "But long live my lord, throughout the ages, there is no dynasty in the world where the land is all Huangzhuang.

!" In this scene with no one around, she also became charming and cute.

"Haha, it didn't happen before, but it doesn't mean it doesn't happen now. I want to let everyone in the world who wants to farm land have land to farm. I want to make sure that there is land for the tiller!" Zhu Youxiao pinched Zhang Yan's little mouth, proudly.

Wan Qian said.

The old Zhu family has been passed down for more than ten generations. The wives chosen from generation to generation are not beautiful, but they are all upright and dignified. After such a long period of genetic improvement, there is really no ugly one in the royal family. This is especially true for Zhu Youxiao, who is 1.8 meters tall.

With a well-proportioned and slender figure, Zhang Yan's heart was intoxicated when she spoke her bold words at this moment. She was really graceful and graceful.

She is only sixteen years old this year, which is when she first started to fall in love. Before meeting the emperor, she had imagined that Tian Qi, who was sent to the world to become a holy king, was a great hero. Unfortunately, the Ming Dynasty war happened after she entered the palace.

It was almost over. Zhu Youxiao was tired from running and rested in the palace, not letting her see the great side.

Now, Zhang Yan was immediately fascinated by Zhu Youxiao's great words. She looked at the tall figure in front of her with fascination. This is a man who stands upright and has the ambition to change the world!

"Long live Lord, I support you. Everyone has land. Long live Lord will definitely become a holy king in the future. People in every household will worship Long live Lord as the living Buddha of thousands of families!" Zhang Yan said shyly with a blush on her face.

.

"Yes! It's enough for the people to get benefits. What else do they care about? Divide the fields and equalize the land. With the support of the farmers, even if the landlords object, it doesn't matter." Zhu Youxiao was stunned and murmured.

Talking to himself, his eyes became brighter and brighter. Soon, he seemed to have figured something out, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He lowered his head and saw that the lovely girl who had inspired him was almost under his armpit. He smiled, lowered his head and kissed her.

Well!

With a soft groan, Zhang Yan was suddenly intoxicated, her whole body felt soft, and she felt that the man she was leaning on was so majestic and warm.

The brightly lit streets are full of pedestrians, and countless beautiful girls wearing white silk jackets are walking around the streets and temples, admiring the lanterns and guessing riddles. Even in the cold winter, they cannot hide their moving figures.

In the first year of Tianqi, the people of the entire capital had saved a lot of money. After a good year, even the Lantern Festival was three times more lively than before. Countless students from other places were dazzled by the bustling scene, and even

Many people were so moved that they vowed to protect this moving scenery for the rest of their lives.

"Father, have you ever seen this beautiful scenery before?" Li Yuyu led his old parents around the streets with a smile on his face. After all, he is just a young man, and he is only 21 or 20 years old now.

It seems that at this age in later generations, he had just graduated from college, and when he was curious and impulsive, he showed his true nature like this.

"Okay, okay, such a grand scene in the capital, we haven't seen it in ten years!" Mr. Li looked at the splendid and brilliant scenery around him with a smile, and Mr. Li next to him also smiled with his teeth exposed.

Next to them, Li Yuyu's eldest brother and sister-in-law, as well as his little nephew, were also playing happily as a family. His five-year-old nephew was holding an arowana lantern in his hand and kept shaking his head.

"My dear fellows, please keep an eye on your baby. Don't let anyone kidnap you." Seeing her little grandson slipping out a few steps, Mrs. Li quickly reminded her. If she hadn't been so weak now, she would have been eager to hug her.

Follow your grandson away.

Li Yuyu was smiling next to him, happily watching his eldest brother and his family hurriedly getting his nephew back. He turned his head and said to his father, "Dad, just stay in the capital for a while. Why are you in such a hurry to go back?"

, I don’t have much time to live in this house anyway, it would be a waste to leave it empty.”

"No, I have to take care of those lands when I get back tomorrow. Mine, your mother's, your nephew's, your brother's, your sister-in-law's, five people's land, your brother alone can't finish the work. We must start from now on.

Let's start fertilizing, otherwise the farming season will be delayed." Father Li took a puff of dry tobacco. He came to have a son at an old age, and he was in a place like a guard house, so he had to deal with some errands. At this age, he couldn't be busy with anything.

Now, the land allocated for farming in the family can only be managed by the boss alone.

"Old man, what are you smoking? Don't you think you're going to choke my dear grandson!" Mrs. Li next to her was dissatisfied and slapped the cigarette bag away. Father Li smiled and put away the cigarette.

"Dad, why are you going back to farm? I have given you so many rewards this year, at least four to five thousand taels, and there is a big house. I can't let you live like a farmer!" Li Yuyu

He said with a smile that in order to let his father enter the city, he ignored his usual steady and dignified demeanor and showed off his wealth like a nouveau riche.

This tone and demeanor made the few guards following him look over with strange expressions. As if they felt their gazes, Li Yuyu glared over and warned them not to leak what happened today, otherwise the military law enforcement agency

.

Several guards were stunned for a moment, then nodded with smiles in their eyes.

Li Yuyu's father hadn't answered Li Yuyu's words yet. His eldest brother looked happy when he arrived and couldn't help but wanted to agree. However, he was worried about his father, so he forced himself to shut up. His wife saw him as a loser.

He looked so angry that he pinched his waist bitterly, and he grimaced in pain.

His mother, on the other hand, watched the actions of the two of them, holding her grandson in her arms and snickering next to her. Her daughter-in-law wanted to take advantage of her brother-in-law, so she did not object. After all, in the past, when her youngest son practiced martial arts all year round, her daughter-in-law also helped a lot. Now,
Chapter completed!
