Zhao Yuan made this decision with a certain amount of courage.

Qingzhou Taxation Law, if not careful, will cause the entire country to be in turmoil.

Once implemented nationwide, it cannot be changed easily.

It is an expedient measure to take the lead in piloting Yangzhou.

The purpose was to let the civil and military ministers in the imperial court take a look at the pros and cons of Qingzhou's tax law.

With the strong support of Jia Rong, the Minister of Household Affairs, Zhao Yuan felt that this matter might really come true.

Thinking back then, a mere Qingzhou tax law could make the Supreme Emperor rich enough to rival the country. It can be seen how tempting the huge profits hidden behind it were.

Moreover, it allows the people to pay less taxes, which is enough to make their lives easier during the holidays.

If you don't compete with the people for profit, you will only pity those merchants or aristocratic families.

Once this is done, Zhao Yuan must also ensure that ordinary people's remuneration will not be affected.

This requires the introduction of some policies.

If you want everyone in the world to have enough food and clothing, this is the only way to achieve it.

After this incident passed, Zhao Yuan began to express condolences to those ministers who had made great contributions to the expedition against the monster clan.

The reward that deserves the reward, the title that deserves the title.

As for Zhao Hongji's reward, Zhao Yuan hesitated for a long time and could not think of a good idea.

He had no choice but to impose a series of honorary titles on Zhao Hongji.

He also issued an imperial edict that from now on, the title of King of Tang could be hereditary and not replaceable.

This means that the favor order implemented by Zhao Changqing can no longer affect Zhao Hongji's lineage.

Zhao Hongji treated this uncle with care.

Later, as the foundation of the Tang Dynasty Palace in Yunzhou became deeper and deeper, it had a profound influence on the court and temples.

Even many wild history novels and biographies have written about the Tang palace.

Of course, this is something.

A banquet was held in Taiji Palace to entertain the senior generals of the three armies.

For three days and three nights, women, wine, whatever they needed, Zhao Yuan would give them.

In short, just one sentence allowed them to open up and play.

Winning such a big victory deserves to be celebrated with the people, and it is worth all the efforts and everything we have.

Inside the Xuanzheng Hall.

Tang Wang Zhao Hongji and Zhao Yuan were sitting face to face.

"Uncle Huang, you have demonstrated the might of our great Wei Dynasty in this battle!"

Zhao Yuan was really happy to win this battle.

Even if my life is shortened by ten or twenty years, I won't hesitate.

Zhao Hongji heard the sound and sighed: "Although we won, this battle was also relatively difficult. Before this, I have been thinking that even if the demon clan has developed to a certain level after taking a breather over the years, it will still be difficult to fight."

Far from being a match for the human race.

But it wasn't until the first battle that I realized how ridiculous it was to have such an idea. In the first battle, the demon clan's 50,000-strong army almost annihilated at least 80,000 of our troops. If it hadn't been for the help of people in the end,

If the naval tactics are successful, the casualties will be even greater.

In other words, the current individual combat capability of the demon clan has far exceeded that of our human race. They are only small in number. If one day they have the same number as our human race, I am afraid that the only result our human race will face is failure.

"

The more Zhao Yuan listened, the more serious his heart became.

At this moment, he has deeply understood that in order to completely suppress the demon clan and win one or two so-called battles, it is simply not enough.

This requires reform from the inside out.

There is a long way to go.

"After this negotiation, the fertile land of thousands of miles outside the demon capital has been given to me, the Wei Dynasty, including the hills that must be fought for by military strategists. These places need to be guarded by you personally, uncle." Zhao Yuan is currently most concerned about this.

The most urgent thing is to consolidate the results.

Zhao Hongji thought about it again and again, clasping his fists to the emperor and saying: "Your Majesty, I have a suggestion, I don't know whether to say it or not."

Zhao Yuan smiled and said: "Uncle, we are all one family. If you talk like this, you are just being foreign."

Zhao Hongji nodded, "My suggestion is to give all the land outside the hills to the demon clan. We will only stick to the hills and the more than 5,000 miles of land after the hills. If we deploy the defense line outside the demon clan's capital, I'm afraid that

, the soldiers will be overwhelmed. After all, the supply line is too long, and building an additional 5,000 miles of Great Wall is also a huge project."

Zhao Yuan stood up and frowned: "Actually, I have thought about this matter a long time ago, but I have been reluctant to make a decision because I am afraid of regretting the soldiers who died on the territory of the Monster Clan. We have already done it for the Monster Clan.

You have made a huge concession. If you give in again and again, how will the world think?

They will say that even if the imperial court wins the battle, it will not dare to fight against the demon clan to the end. This is only one of the reasons, but the other... A new policy is about to be promulgated. At this juncture, if something like this happens again, I will

Afraid of bad impact."

Zhao Hongji said sadly: "If we guard the edge of the demon clan's capital, I'm afraid there will be conflicts all year round. There will be too many problems and the gains will not be worth the losses."

Zhao Yuan thought for a while and said: "Since the land outside the demon clan's capital city cannot be defended, we cannot hand it over to the demon clan for nothing.

You can send envoys to tell the demon clan, saying, I allow the demon clan members to survive in that five thousand miles of land, but they must accept the jurisdiction of our human clan. If we, the human clan, want to go to that place, they can travel freely.

If the demon clan comes in and out, it needs to be approved by the human clan yamen.

And we have to tell the Demon King sternly that if we find that a demon hurts people, we will definitely deal with it seriously. At the same time, we will also force the human race to actively seek trouble from the demon clan. Since those places cannot be defended, we can let the demons

The two ethnic groups jointly manage it.

After conflicts arise, all matters except for the death of people can be resolved through negotiation. In this way, people may die in the early stage, but as many people die, as many monsters will die. If they stay dead, those monsters will not dare to cause trouble.

Already."

Zhao Hongji beamed with joy, "According to my opinion, this method is feasible. Once war breaks out between the human and demon clans again, that area can be used as a buffer zone, and it can also save us a lot of trouble."

Zhao Yuandao: "Not only that, but we also need to tell our people that the reason why we do this is to show the magnanimity of a great nation and see if we can create a zone where humans and demons can coexist on the border between humans and demons.

.”

Zhao Hongji laughed loudly.

This move is brilliant.

Zhao Yuan's decree was sent to the capital of the demon clan.

The Demon King burst into tears of gratitude.

We specially united with the clan leaders of the Monster Clan to express our gratitude to the Human Emperor Zhao Yuan who was far away in Luoyang.

Moreover, he was also honored as His Majesty the Holy Emperor.

When the time comes in the future, they will go to Luoyang to pay homage to the Holy Emperor.

After Zhao Yuan heard the news, he felt extremely happy.

But there is more than just one happy event.

There is also the complete success of the Yangzhou pilot project.

This means that this tax plan is feasible.

Although private merchants and aristocratic families complained a lot, they could not compare with the conveniences provided by the imperial court to merchants and aristocratic families.

Accepting this new policy may be difficult at first.

But as time goes by, it doesn't matter anymore.

The big deal is just to pay more money.

As long as you can still make money, you are not afraid of paying more.
