Chapter 424 Gao Le

Qinhuang Palace, First Emperor Palace.

Qin Huang Ying'an sat opposite Dongfang Qingye, the saint of Black Ice Platform.

Although Ying'an was the supreme, he also brought some respect at this moment and sighed: "I didn't know that Qingyunzhai was a bandit, and when he traded it, he was trying to make a fuss with the tiger. However, the court was really short of food. Apart from those counties with sin and rebellion, the other counties almost all reached out to me, asking for food and silver. Not to mention the other counties, even in Xianyang, there were people who were starved to death. Even if Qi and Chu were better than Daqin, they were limited. It was also surprising that the three dynasties and the people under the rule were not as good as a nest of bandits. I forced me to ask for food with a group of traitors. I am ashamed of the heavens and earth, ashamed of my ancestors, and I wish I could destroy myself!"

At the end, Ying An slammed the dragon's desk in front of him with a palm, making a "bang", as if venting the anger in his heart.

Dongfang Qingye looked at all this indifferently, but even though he was the noble of the Martial Saint and one of the most expensive and heaviest people in the world, he could not think of a way at this moment.

Because no matter how high his martial arts are, he cannot produce food.

Seeing Dongfang Qingye like this, Ying An narrowed his eyes and was silent for a little while, and asked, "Sage, I heard that the reason why Qingyun Village produces countless grains in a year is that it is not only the construction of water conservancy to open up fertile fields, but the most important thing is that the masters and powerful people in Qingyun Village have abandoned swords and held agricultural tools, went to the fields to plow the fields and clear the land, sowing and harvesting. It is really shocking to cultivate millions of acres of fertile fields. I wonder if this matter is true or false?"

Looking at Ying Anxiji's eyes, Dongfang Qingye felt quite tired.

He didn't even know how to answer...

Dongfang Qingye also knew about this, but he could never do so if he wanted to imitate it.

If so, the Black Ice Platform must be disbanded in one go.

After a pause, Dongfang Qingye lowered his eyes and said slowly: "Your Majesty, this is the evil method of Qingyun without a king or a father, and forgetting his superiority."

Ying An's eyes darkened when he heard this. Even though he knew it was impossible, he had completely given up after hearing Dongfang Qingye's words.

Ying An was a rare talented emperor in the Qin royal family for thousands of years, but he couldn't figure out the need for the three holy places in the world.

The three holy lands have lived for thousands of years, and their only function seems to be that the three families will restrain each other.

But wouldn't it be better if it didn't exist anymore?

Just to restrain the three families, almost half of the treasury of the imperial court was exhausted by the three families in a year!

If we include the families behind the elders and disciples in the holy land...

Two-thirds of the national treasury are consumed by the Holy Land lineage, but it has no other effect except to defend against the other two holy lands.

What Ying An couldn't tolerate the most was Dongfang Qingye's indifferent attitude before him, the supreme emperor of Qin.

No king or father!!

He dared to come to question because the court bought grain from Qingyun Village.

I am the emperor, why should I explain to you when I act?!

As if feeling the disappointment and anger in Qin Emperor Ying An's heart, Dongfang Qingye raised his eyes and said, "Your Majesty, I have agreed with Master and Prince Huang to ambush Hou Wanqian within two years. If Hou Wanqian is eliminated, then everything in Qingyun Village will be owned by my Great Qin, including Shu."

Ying An was shocked when he heard this, but his face showed joy and said, "Oh? Are you sure?"

Dongfang Qingye said lightly: "As long as the Master is willing to take action, he will be eight or nine and ten."

Ying An smiled in his heart, but said happily: "If this is the best, it will be a blessing for the country!"

...

The atmosphere in the Qin Emperor Palace gradually calmed down, but on Confucius Mountain there was a solemn and evil wind.

Confucius Mountain, the Elders' Home.

The elders of the teachings looked angry and glared at Jiang Taixu, saying, "If we are also mud-legged farmers, then who will read the books of sages and preach the saints? Sweep the floor with politeness! Sweep the floor with politeness!"

The Supreme Elder reminded: "Ziyuan, in the past two years, you have been bewitched by Qingyun Village and have investigated the families behind the Academy's Elders' Court, forcing them to hand over the land and serve and pay silver. Imagine that you are the master of the Master and you will be the master of the Academy's Master in the future. None of us, the old bones, said nothing. As long as the Tao that is beneficial to you, you can become a saint as soon as possible, there is nothing to do. But you can't force me to put down the history of the Spring and Autumn Books and go to the fields to work as a cattle and do horse farming. Don't you think it's too much?"

Jiang Taixu said calmly: "Teacher Qi, the people of Qi support the school and support us. Now the country is in a difficult situation and the common people are hungry and suffering. If we have great strength, what's wrong with us? As far as our disciples know, Qingyun Village started from Tian Wuniang, the prestigious leader of Qingyun Village, went to the newly joined Vajra Temple, Xingyue Temple, and even the Dharma King and Saint of the Original Demon Sect, who were counted as one, they all personally went to the fields, thinking that the people had a way to live. Can't they do the many gentlemen who regard benevolence and etiquette as the heavens of our Jixia Academy?"

"They had evil magic at that time!!"

Another elder was even more angry when he saw Jiang Taixu's appearance and said sternly: "If even we have to surrender to the nobles and become a cattle, horses and do coolies, who will still study and practice martial arts in the future? Why not be a farmer? Why not suffer so much and suffer so much? In the long run, who will preach the saint's way? Even the children on the street should arrange for us to be inferior!"

"That's right! This fact is ridiculous!"

"It's inexplicable..."

"No, it's horrifying!"

“Have you ever heard of this practice in a thousand years?”

"Zi Yuan, scholars should establish their minds for the heaven and earth, establish their destiny for the living and the people, carry forward their unique knowledge for the past saints, and bring peace to the ages. We preach for the saints, even if we die, we will never regret it. But we can't run into the fields and stir up dung spoons, right?"

Complaints were heard everywhere, and hundreds of masters in the Jixia Academy were supported by hundreds of masters.

Even if he is a man who praises him as his next generation, he will never accept such vulgar and despicable things as going to the fields to farm.

Jiang Taixu was tired, his face became more and more indifferent, and he slowly said, "If there is still a lot of land in Qi next year, the difficulty of food will still be unsolvable, and the national fortune will be worrying."

The elder half complained and half suggested, "Ziyuan, after the Kuai Rebellion, my Great Qi vacated countless fertile fields. Why not sell these fertile fields? On the one hand, many aristocratic families had no place to buy land with money, while on the other hand, the vacant fertile fields could only grow grass. It's a pity and it's really ridiculous!"

Looking at the heartbroken elder, a hint of disgust flashed in Jiang Taixu's eyes and said, "Teacher Qiu, do you still need your disciples to say more about the disaster of the annexation of aristocratic families? Moreover, after the aristocratic families merged the fields in a large scale, they did not plow them carefully. After extensive planting, they harvested them all by replacing the fields to produce hair. It was extremely hateful. But..."

At this point, Jiang Taixu suddenly changed his mind and said, "Next year, I will indeed sell some of the fields."

As soon as these words were spoken, many masters' eyes lit up.

Many of them actually knew that their martial arts potential was exhausted and it was difficult to go further. They didn’t seek much for the rest of their lives. In addition to being free and comfortable, they could take care of the family behind them.

It is always good to make the family more land.

However, Jiang Taixu said lightly: "From next year, the court will no longer use the head of the people to discuss taxes, but will fill this part of the tax in the land. The more land you get, no matter how you plant it, it has nothing to do with the court. You can just pay taxes according to the land."

...

"It's New Year!!"

On the top of Qingyun Village, Tian Jiuniang, wearing a new flowery jacket, rode a big black dog behind her back and shouted loudly at the night sky with the smell of meat.

After Xiao Jiuniang shouted, Da Huihui was not willing to be outdone. She raised her head and roared a few times, which made Xiao Jiuniang laugh.

Not far from the two, a big girl with two big beetles pierced with two sky-sky bulges, rolling a big bluestone like a ball, making a "whim" sound!

If it’s not Ning Nannan, who is it?

Suddenly, the big bluestone "buzzed" and flew high towards the night sky. Then, Xiao Jiuniang and Xiao Huihui turned around and saw it. Ning Nannan stomped the ground suddenly, then bared his teeth and twisted his eyes, and roared into the sky like a little tiger!

"I~~Kill!!"

"Bang!"

A huge piece of hard bluestone was blown up by her in the air, and the gravel flew into the air.

Before the scared little Huihui, who was ignorant and fled with Xiao Jiuniang, she saw Ning Nannan laughing and blocking them. While waving his hand to hit the gravel that was coming from flying, she said ecstaticly: "Xiao Jiuer, come home quickly to prepare clothes and packages. I will become the master. I will take you and your aunt back to Linzi tomorrow. Let's go to Gaolegole!! Hahahaha!"
