Three days later, Mu Yunhan took over, and more than ten families, including the Guhou Mansion, the Muhou Mansion, the Shenhou Mansion, the Wuhou Mansion, and the Zhou family, took the initiative to pay the tax.
When the money was put into the treasury, it was like a stone breaking through the dead middle of the lake, causing a great shock.
Many ministers from aristocratic families who were originally waiting and watching were panicked. No one paid taxes, and no one stood out.
Even if the emperor is unhappy, there's nothing he can do about it. The law doesn't punish everyone.
Now that a group of unlucky bad guys suddenly came here and took the lead in becoming good guys, it seemed that these people had ulterior motives and were bold enough to go against the emperor.
So the timid ones also hurriedly paid the tax.
The deadlock was broken, more and more people paid taxes, and Emperor Long Yan was so happy that he had to praise Mu Yunhan and others.
The first is that the Jin Dynasty granted the title of concubine to the concubine of Zhou Dynasty.
The fact that Princess Zhou was promoted to the concubine was not obvious, but the Zhou family knew that it was because his family took the initiative to pay taxes and was specially given by the emperor as a favor.
Then, the bad influence caused by the Princess Huaichang incident has been basically eliminated. Not only will the Zhou family be fine, but as long as they don't commit suicide, they will be better off.
However, the decree regarding the marriage of Princess Huaichang to Gu Fengyuan has not yet been issued.
Mu Yunhan was a little uneasy, always worried that the long nights and dreams would cause misfortune, and Princess Huaichang would continue to hide in the palace and cause trouble.
Gu Fenglin was not in a hurry and analyzed it slowly for her: "This is your majesty's safety point.
Except for us, outsiders who don't know the reason will inevitably cause a disturbance in the court.
Prime Minister Meng will definitely stand up and object, he will not sit back and watch the Gu family become powerful again.
There are three reasons. First, since the founding of the Zhao Dynasty, there has never been a precedent for a princess to be a descendant of the Gu family.
Second, the children of the Gu family have special bloodlines and short lifespans, so they are not suitable as masters. This is a consensus that has been formed over the years.
Third, in the eyes of outsiders, Ayuan is my successor and a candidate for future priests, and he should marry Mu's daughter according to tradition.
A marriage between a princess and a priest would not be beneficial to the country, but would easily lead to political interference.
As long as Prime Minister Meng takes the initiative, not only the Meng Party will agree, but the courtiers who support the tax reform will also oppose it.
At that time, will His Majesty insist on going his own way and disappoint the courtiers, or will he withdraw his orders and succumb to Meng Xiang and others?
Ah Yuan can't let his boss's affairs be small. If it affects the collection of summer taxes, it will become a big deal.
Therefore, at this critical moment, we must strive to be safe in everything and leave no loopholes.
You have acted too hastily. You will continue to make progress in the future. Many things cannot be rushed.
What your Majesty promised will come true sooner or later, and even if you regret it, I can still make it come true."
Mu Yunhan accepted the instruction and thanked him with a smile: "Thank you, Mr. Gu, for teaching the students another lesson."
Gu Fenglin rubbed her forehead and said in a deep voice: "The deadlock has been broken. The new tax policy has won the first battle. These people will not admit defeat. Just wait, they will take action again soon."
Mu Yunhan also felt this way, but the enemy hadn't made a move yet, so he couldn't fight randomly and could only wait.
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, good tax reports from various places are coming one after another, money is being put into the treasury, the household department is very busy, and Gu Fenglin is also busy.
The business of the Medicinal Food Hall was gradually improving again, but Mu Yunhan was frightened and could not sit still.
She didn't go out either, she just sat at home all day long, waiting for that moment to come.
It happened that Zhou Yifu came to the door every now and then to read a book. Although he always followed the rules, he always happened to meet Mu Ying once or twice.
