Chun Jianli bit her lip and hummed, "It's just to abuse you."

Ning Jiang was taking a shower in the bucket, letting her rub her back behind her back. The fatigue accumulated over the daytime quickly dissipated. Anyway, he had nothing to do, so he simply pulled Chun Jianli from behind and smiled and said, "Didn't you learn a lot of new postures from Xiao Ya'er? Show it for me!"

Chun Jianli stood in front of the bucket and looked at the side with a red face. At this position, just lower her head, you can see something you shouldn't see. When she heard him ask her to show him the "position" she learned with Xiao Ya'er, her face turned even more red, but she glanced at him with spring in her eyes: "What do you want to see?"

Ning Jiang smiled and said, "Let's look at the one you placed last time."

Chun Jianli slowly took a few steps back. She was originally a relatively bold girl. Although she was too embarrassed to be dismissed, she didn't plan to refuse from the beginning. What's more, the purpose of learning bone shrinkage with Xiao Ya'er was to be able to look good in the future...or to say, she was embarrassed to show her sweetheart.

He bent forward, supported a low stool with both hands, kicked his feet, and slowly bent his straight legs to the back of his head, which was raised under the support of his hands, until his legs were bent on his back shoulders, and the whole person formed a round of backwards. His head was sandwiched between his legs, and the back of his head was almost in contact with the backwards. He looked up at the man in the bathtub, as if asking him if he was powerful.

Ning Jiang has to admit that this is a very interesting... and it is actually very attractive. In fact, in the life before he traveled through time, when he was a middle school student, when he saw a sports meeting on TV, he thought that it would be very interesting to marry a female athlete who can gymnastics when he grew up.

He couldn't help himself, and slowly stood up, walked out of the bathtub, and walked towards the girl who was in a strange position. Chun Jianli opened her eyes wide and watched him get closer and closer to him, and something was approaching her sandal lips. She subconsciously opened her mouth and then was blocked.

A strange sound came from the room, and there were a few breaths from time to time. At some point, the girl, who had taken off her jacket and pants, gradually straightened her waist, her legs hooked on the back of the young man's neck, supported the stool with both hands, and her chest was supported by the young man with both hands that were around her waist, forming a crescent-like arc in front of the young man. The young man felt the fullness of his hands, and the torrent in his body continued to surge under the stimulation of the girl.

Seeing that the last moment, at this moment, he felt a sense of his heart and looked up suddenly. He saw that a corner of the window was opened at some point. A pair of eyes full of surprise and at a loss were looking at them. The pale faces, like a flash of flowers in the rain outside the window, fleeing in panic at the moment when he looked.

And the torrent flowed out at this moment...

Xiao Meng, who escaped back to her attic, changed into clean clothes, got on the bed, and tossed and turned and couldn't fall asleep.

The scene just now was... Brother, Jianli and the others...

She lay on her back, her eyes passing through the tent, looking at the sea of ​​algae above.

At that moment just now, Jianli seemed to be eating her brother's... her brother was also kissing her...

She felt a little confused...it was as if she had suddenly opened the door to a new world.

The showers outside were clamoring. The sound of the showers slowly diminished, and the candlelight on the lampstand gradually ignited to the bottom, and then it disappeared in a flash.

In the middle of the night, the door of the room was opened, and someone walked in gently, sat beside her, calling softly: "Xiaomeng?Xiaomeng?"

Xiao Meng closed her eyes tightly... pretended to be asleep.

The man sitting next to her changed his previous calmness and confidence, scratched his head at a loss, and felt speechless ashamed of his sister.

They were two people who were dependent on each other, but they carried their sister to do something bad, and they were seen by their sister. At this moment, he had no idea how to explain to his sister.

In desperation, I could only lie next to my sister, accompanying her obviously pretending to be asleep.

That night, neither brother nor sister fell asleep...

***

The next morning, in the court.

"Fighting for profit with the people is fighting for profit with the people!" Han Xi, the right servant, took the memorial and waved it vigorously.

Under his leadership, many court officials also wrote letters. They did not dare to look for the emperor who gradually became stronger over the past few days, so they all looked towards Ningjiang, who was only a scholar of Longtu, but in the process of reform, they obviously had become the emperor's right-hand man. Among them, there were also a small number of people standing on the side of Ningjiang and arguing loudly with these people. However, when Han Xi waved the big stick of "competing for profit with the people", they didn't know how to argue for a while.

Ning Jiang did not go directly to fight Han Xi and others in a verbal battle, but bowed to the emperor on the stairs: "Your Majesty, 'Striving for profit with the people' has always been despised by saints, but what are the people? Over the years, the tax on the people has become increasingly serious, and you have never thought that this is competing for profit with the people. Your Majesty, why is the seventh road in the southwest in chaos? Isn't the main reason that the tenant rent is too heavy, and the people have worked hard to produce it. It is lucky to be able to leave one or two of the ten bulls. Once you encounter a natural disaster,

He was immediately unable to make ends meet and was poor and had to sell his children until he could not survive even selling his children. He died on the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the verge of the invasion of the barbarians."

He continued: "As wars begin, the court will have to increase taxes and taxes, either on the merchants or on the poor. When adding rent and taxes to the poor, the adults never thought of the four words "competing for profit with the people". When it comes to increasing commercial tax and levying salt tax, we will immediately be labeled as competing for profit with the people. You are punished!"

Han Xi pointed at Ning Jiang: "You are talking nonsense, you are talking nonsense."

Ning Jiang sneered: "Salt and iron should have been sold exclusively by the court, but in fact, the franchise system was ineffective two hundred years ago. Han Xiang, you are so opposed to the levy of salt tax. After all, it is just because Fengle and Changzhou have already occupied the two salt mines by your Han family. Isn't it the same for you to oppose the levy of commercial tax? My Zhou Dynasty always valued literature and neglected business, and everyone was ashamed to say the word "shang", but which big business company has no support from the officials behind them? Lord Han, the owner of the Defeng Business Company in Yanhai is your nephew? Lord Lu, who is the boss behind the Tonghui Business Company connected to Juan, Jing, Wu, and Pingzhou? Do you need the official to say it? Lord Zhao..."

"Your Majesty." Han Xi said loudly, "Ningjiang is talking nonsense. Even if the leader of the Defeng Business Club is his nephew, my Han clan is great and has great achievements and has a scattered family. Occasionally, if an unworthy son goes on a business trip, how can he be involved in the old minister casually? Ningjiang is catching up on the wind and shadows, and nothing can cause trouble. Your Majesty, now that the people are unstable, all miscellaneous taxes should be reduced, and the land tax should be reduced, and commercial taxes must not be increased..."

"The land tax should be reduced, but the commercial tax should not be increased. Where does the money come from because of the increasing war?" Ning Jiang sneered, "Besides, the land tax should be reduced, but the current land annexation is extremely serious. The court increased the land tax, and all the taxes were added to the tenants and tenants who were farming in the fields, and the people were suffering. The court reduced the land tax, but it was reduced to the land occupiers. The gentry and landlords took the opportunity to increase the land rent and enjoyed the benefits of reducing the land tax. The people at the bottom did not actually reduce the burden. In our practice of the Great Zhou Dynasty, only those local gentry were the "citizens" in the past dynasties. As for the ordinary people at the bottom, they were not as "unfaithful". How could they exist in the hearts of the adults?"

As soon as these officials said this, all the officials blushed. Although he was talking about the facts, revealing this fact bloodyly made everyone angry.

However, these court officials were also good at fighting against the court. Soon, all kinds of ridicule, protest, and attacks cited by classics were poured from all directions, and the entire court began to fall into meaningless arguments.

In the Eastern Palace, Prince Song Qian held the book in his hand and sat upright reading the book. After a long time, he put down the book and said, "The dispute over the court has not ended yet?"

Opposite him, the young master of the prince Zhan Tongshan sat. Zhan Tongshan said, "I'm afraid it won't end so easily. Han Xiang and all the lords are so angry at this moment."

The prince said: "Super Han was a great scholar of the times. He was an official in the court for many years and has always been noble and honest. His father always respected him very much. I wonder who was angry with him?"

Zhan Tongshan said: "It is Ningjiang, which Your Majesty has relied heavily on recently. The cause of this dynasty struggle is due to the tax burden. Han Xiang said that the people have been poor and unstable recently. In terms of taxes, the policy of light taxes should be adopted to provide people with care. The land tax should be reduced and commercial tax should not be increased."

The prince said: "This is a theory of old-fashioned planning for the country. Will the father oppose it?"

Zhan Tongshan said: "But Ningjiang said that the people at the bottom are worse than those of the people. The land tax is useless and commercial tax must be levied. His Majesty has been bewitched by him recently and refused to listen to Han Xiang's words of reducing taxes and levying taxes. He also wanted to increase taxes. All the greats are arguing with Na Ningjiang."

The prince Song Qian looked angry: "Ningjiang is indeed a scholar. Doesn't he know the truth about the people's favor and call the people a pariah? This person is actually a treacherous villain, who talks about barbarians and Hu, threatens his father, and makes his father have to use it more seriously. He relies on his merits in defeating the barbarians this time, speaks about military affairs, modifys class laws, and causes the morale of the army to fluctuate, and deceives his father to perform the Baojia method. He is a short-sighted act and does not make a hundred-year plan for our Great Zhou Dynasty. The various taxes of our Great Zhou Dynasty were already extremely heavy, and it is just a justification for being underestimated and underestimated. However, he advised his father to increase taxes and act in such a way that he was a traitor."

Zhan Tongshan sighed: "Fortunately, your highness understands the truth..."

The vigorous dynasty finally dispersed. In the Golden Palace, the emperor Song Shao sat on the throne and coughed anxiously.

At the foot of the road, Ning Jiang said: "Your Majesty becomes sick due to overwork, so it is better to take more rest..."

Song Shao waved his hand and said, "You have seen what happened today. I forcibly issued an order to refute the people. According to the court rules, after I issued the order three times and were refuted three times, I will hand over the matter to the court for discussion. This matter may be difficult to pass the court for discussion." After pondering for a while, he said, "Your Mass and those officials' last words? The land tax will be reduced first, and the commercial tax can be discussed. Perhaps I should reduce the land tax first as he wishes..."

Ning Jiang bowed at the steps and said, "Han Xiang's strategy is just a trick to counterattack the empress. Now that the war in the southwest has not yet been settled, the Bashu Miaoyi invaded, and the north has just ceded the four states, and it needs to build a large amount of fortifications, and it has also paid off a lot of wealth for the barbarians. Even with the wealth of our dynasty, it is gradually ineffective in this period of trouble. Even if we want to reduce the land tax and give people a livelihood, we must wait until the commercial tax is imposed, and we can do it with more investment. As the head of all officials, how can we not know about this? What's more, the land tax is reduced and exempted.

There are many things to pay attention to how to reduce the land tax. After the land tax is reduced, the local gentry and landlords do not take the opportunity to increase the rent, which has caused the court to lose the input and the large number of tenants cannot make profits, which makes the landlords and gentry rich? That is, the landlords and gentry reduce the rent, and that is, it is an enemy of the gentry all over the world, so it is naturally not feasible. But at least it is necessary to ensure that while the tax is reduced, the landlords and gentry do not increase the rent. However, Han Xiang only said that tax cuts and does not increase the rent. Why is this? In the final analysis, he is just framed the weak ministers."

Song Shao said: "How do you say this?"

Ning Jiang said: "Secret Han naturally knew that unless the commercial tax was really imposed, there would be no need to reduce the land tax. He kept saying that he wanted to reduce the land tax, but he was just a good reputation. Today's incident came outside. Shanxi repeatedly advised Your Majesty to reduce the tax. The ministers not only forcibly opposed the tax cuts, but advised Your Majesty to increase the tax. In this way, Hanxi naturally had a clean and honest loyal minister who was a loyal official and a people, and gained a good reputation for his innocence. In the future, history books might have to be recorded for him, but the ministers became treacherous ministers who refused to compassion with the people. Even His Majesty, he might have become a foolish monarch who was bewitched by the ministers."

Song Shao said with a headache: "What should I do now?"

Ning Jiang said: "This matter is a careless matter. When the Korean Prime Minister links the salt tax with the four words "competing for profit with the people", the Wei Minister should temporarily retreat. The Wei Minister shows off his temporary benefits, but let the Korean Prime Minister forcefully bind the land reduction tax with the commercial tax. If the land tax is reduced and exempted, it would be fine if it can really be levied. However, if the land tax is really reduced and commercial tax is levied, there will still be disputes. Even if it is fought for two or three years, the court will not make ends meet and have to raise the land tax that the party has reduced and exempted. This repetition will only damage the face and prestige of Your Majesty, and other new laws will be affected by this. At this point, it is impossible to impose commercial tax."

He sighed in his heart. This time he did make a mistake. Han Xi's "reducing land tax" move can be said to have completely blocked the possibility of levying commercial tax. "reducing land tax" has become a big stick waving by Han Xi. For the sake of the overall situation, Ning Jiang had to take this stick. If he and the emperor forcefully raised the levy of commercial tax, it would not only fail, but would not only kill the tyrant and treacherous ministers.

He bowed down at the steps and said, "Tomorrow, the court meeting will be held publicly and the matter of collecting commercial tax will be abandoned."
