The Land Equalization Order did indeed enrich the country and the people at the beginning, and stabilize the people's hearts.
But in reality, the imperial court has no land to grant, acres of land are freely bought and sold, and powerful people have accumulated a large amount of land, so this order exists in name only.
In addition, there were various exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes, which made the people miserable and the national treasury was empty.
What Gu Fenglin wanted to do was to change the land tax to be levied on a per-acre basis, change the household tax to be levied on a property basis, and abolish all exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes.
In this way, tax revenue can be guaranteed to be stable, and local officials cannot allocate it at will.
Secondly, it is relatively fair. Poor people will not be forced to become homeless due to excessive taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and they can also collect more taxes from wealthy households.
Mu Yunhan had heard Gu Fenglin mention it earlier and had given him advice.
Listening to him talk about it now, I still enjoy listening to it.
Emperor Leng Buding called her name: "Mrs. Anguo, I still need you to take the lead in this matter."
She is now a well-known big businessman in the country, with many acres of land in her hands, and the Mu family is actually under her control, so she must take the lead in paying taxes.
Mu Yunhan agreed without hesitation: "Serving the country is what you should do. Not to mention paying taxes, if the Zhao needs it and your Majesty needs it, I will be happy to let my wife hand over all her family property."
The emperor's eyes were filled with relief: "I really saw you right. Let's put it this way, if the life and death of the country is not at stake, I can still do it to keep you and your wife wealthy."
He turned his head and talked about the details with Gu Fenglin.
After talking for a while, the eldest son of the emperor started crying again.
The emperor was a little anxious, frowned and sighed: "Mrs. An Guo, why don't you go check on Yan'er for me?"
The eldest son of the emperor has not been very well-behaved since he left the middle palace. He was first brought to the Queen Mother for education, but he cried very much.
The emperor was convinced that the queen was causing trouble, so he had the eldest son brought to him and let him keep an eye on it himself.
I didn’t cry so much at the Queen Mother’s place, but children always cry.
He is a grown man who has a lot of things to do all day long, and he is also an only son who was hard-earned, so when the child cries, he becomes upset.
Mu Yunhan and Gu Fenglin looked at each other and stood up to leave.
When she reached the door, she looked back and saw Gu Fenglin and the emperor sitting under the lamp. One was white and fat, the other was thin, both frowned slightly and looked solemn.
Gu Fenglin took a bamboo stick, wrote on the sand tray and then erased it.
The emperor's eyes followed the bamboo sticks, his expression sincere and pious.
She suddenly felt relieved.
Regardless of whether the fatal potion was in the emperor's hands, it was impossible for him to use it against her at this time.
It is even very possible that that matter has nothing to do with the emperor.
The quarrel he had with Zhonggong was definitely not for them to watch, because it was unnecessary.
The eldest son of the emperor was placed in the side hall, surrounded by more than a dozen experienced wet nurses and nuns.
There were also cute little palace maids and little eunuchs jumping around with all kinds of toys, trying to make the eldest son of the emperor happy.
The eldest son of the emperor ignored him and cried until his face turned purple and his voice became hoarse.
The wet nurse and the nanny are like mourning their heirs.
Seeing Mu Yunhan come in, he immediately went to greet him and begged: "Mrs. Anguo, come and coax your highness."
Mu Yunhan picked up the eldest son of the emperor, put his head against her heart, patted her a few times, walked back and forth, and said softly: "Yan'er, be good, don't cry, sleep well, I'll show you
