Chapter 599 When Princess Heqin Becomes the Supreme Empress (25)
Gu Mo is the most terrifying.
This Emperor Roujia is the invisible boss.
"You, how dare you do this to me..." Qin Wanyue said through gritted teeth with all her strength.
"You have always said that you want to contribute to the people of the world, but you have no chance. Now I give you a chance. You see, I have won so much money at the expense of you. Now I want to donate all the money.
Give it to the treasury, so that the emperor can reduce the tax burden on the people of the world. If the people of the world know about it, they will definitely be grateful to you, Concubine Qin."
Those fateful women, "..."
Why do you want to donate to the national treasury? You don’t even give them the chance to default on their debts?
Gu Mo stood up and looked at the people who didn't dare to show their anger.
"I am actually a person who is very easy to get along with. You all know this. From now on, when you have nothing to do, you can come to me often to play. My door will always be open to you."
Everyone, "..."
Who dares to say that Roujia Diji is easy to bully in the future?
This damn thing is killing people without showing any blood.
When Gu Mo ran to find Emperor Lin, Emperor Lin happened to ask the ministers to kneel at the door of the study.
As soon as Gu Mo entered, he found that the atmosphere inside was quite solemn, and everyone looked at Gu Mo a little uncomfortable.
When Emperor Lin saw her coming, he stood up with red eyes.
"Roujia, why did you come to see me?"
Gu Mo thought for a moment and asked, "Brother Huang, who bullied you?"
Emperor Lin was speechless for a moment, and Gu Mo said: "If someone bullies you, please tell me. Although I am not as powerful as the emperor brother, I have been in Donghu for many years and my fists are always harder than the emperor brother. I can help him beat someone to death."
Two disobedient things are still okay."
Emperor Lin was originally very depressed, but now he was immediately amused by Gu Mo.
"No one bullies the emperor brother, why do you want to ask the emperor brother for anything?"
Gu Mo said: "Today the ladies and ladies from your lord's residence came to play with Rou Jia. Rou Jia saw their brows were furrowed, and after asking carefully, she found out that the emperor brother and your lords were worried about tax exemptions and reductions."
"I heard that the emperor wants to reduce taxes, and I think it makes sense. There have been natural and man-made disasters in recent years. If the tax policy of previous years continues to be adopted, the people will indeed be miserable. But the adults do not agree to reduce taxes. I think some adults
Based on the consideration, if taxes are rashly reduced or reduced, the national treasury will be empty, which will indeed be detrimental to the important affairs of the court."
Although several ministers had just heard about Gu Mo's deeds and were moved, it was wrong for Gu Mo to come here to discuss the government affairs. They were about to say something to Gu Mo, but they didn't want Gu Mo to say:
"Rou Jia has never understood any major affairs of the government. However, your lord's wife, your daughter, has the foresight and understands the righteousness deeply. She is deeply aware of the difficulties of the people in the world and told Rou Jia that since the people of the world are not easy, it is better to put the people of the world first.
After supporting the emperor and reducing taxes, aren’t there still meritorious nobles on the treasury side?”
Everyone was confused after hearing this, and Gu Mo took out the IOU, the money and jewelry he had won from the wives.
"Brother, you see, all this money is donated to the national treasury."
One minister couldn't help but said, "Emperor Roujia, you don't think this money can fill the national treasury, do you?"
Another minister also said: "It is true that women have long hair but short knowledge. If the treasury only needs this money, why should the emperor be worried about it?"
Gu Moxiao said, "Of course this money is not enough, but what about these IOUs?"
Gu Mo pushed Lao Gao's pile of IOUs to Emperor Lin.
"Brother Imperial, the ladies in your family also want to share your worries, but they didn't bring that much money today, so they signed an IOU to Roujia, saying that the money will be delivered another day. You see, with this money to support
The treasury and the people can temporarily breathe a sigh of relief. Roujia feels that the ladies are so righteous and should be greatly commended. Brother Huang, what do you think?"
The ministers were stunned and stared at the IOU on the desk.
"Impossible, how could my wife..."
Gu Mo glanced over.
"Do you think your wife can't understand the suffering of the people around the world? Or do you think your wife can't donate money?"
The minister choked.
When he returned to the house and asked about it, he was even more angry when he learned what happened in Gu Mo Palace today.
You can even lose half of your possessions in a horse-drawing game. Are you devils?
Those ladies and ladies, "..." Emperor Roujia is the devil!
The IOU is already an ironclad fact. Saying that I donated it is like saying that I was defeated by the horse.
In the end, the ministers had no choice but to accept the IOUs.
Moreover, Gu Mo was not low-key at all and asked the emperor to commend these ladies.
So the chamberlains in the palace went to each house the next day, beating gongs and drums to announce the imperial edict, letting everyone know that these houses had paid IOUs to the treasury and strongly supported the reduction of taxes.
Moreover, after the edict was announced, the money still had to be taken away.
It would be better if the families of these ministers made excuses not to give it to them. It would be better if the officers and soldiers just go in and move it away, and they will move away anything valuable they see, just like bandits.
Those ministers, "..."
Mader and the others feel like they are being avenged by Roujia Diji!
However, no evidence was found.
The situation at the homes of several important officials in the DPRK undoubtedly sent a signal to other courtiers: they all agreed to reduce their taxes.
In this case, can other courtiers still be dissatisfied?
So in the end, Emperor Lin's tax reduction policy was finally implemented, and the people were all happy and dancing.
Emperor Lin didn't expect that such a matter, which the courtiers had discussed and discussed, would be settled like this.
As for the fact that Qin Wanyue was beaten, no one cared about it at all, given the good news that his salary had been reduced.
Until Qin Wanyue's injury healed, this incident did not cause any waves.
King Yi went into the palace to ask Gu Mo for an explanation, but Gu Mo had a gentle look on his face.
"King Yi, do you think my aunt can bear to do this to her nephew-in-law? In fact, my aunt doesn't want to. Your father is worried about political affairs all day long. You don't feel bad, but your aunt does. She just wants to share your father's worries.
"
So if you don’t share your father’s worries, what’s wrong with me sharing his worries?
In the life before Qin Wanqiu was reborn, because there were several brothers and uncles eyeing the throne, Gu Qijin worked hard to govern and was self-disciplined and steady.
But in this life, the woman in the book and the reborn woman thought they were planning for Gu Qijin and cleared all obstacles for Gu Qijin. They had given Gu Qijin the illusion that he could sit in that position even if he didn't need to do anything.
They thought they were helping Gu Qijin, but they didn't know that it was their attack that destroyed the ambitious Gu Qijin.
Especially when Emperor Lin now only had him as an adult prince, Gu Qijin didn't think that Emperor Lin could find a more suitable heir than him, so he let himself go even more, obsessed with the book girl and the reborn girl.
He enjoys a comfortable life in the gentle countryside built for him.
Now let alone the major affairs of the court, he doesn't even bother to take care of the affairs in his own house.
