"My dear, what do you mean?"
"Did the same person write all of this?"
When Wei Yunyi walked into the bedroom and saw the hundreds of memorials on the table, he was also shocked.
Too many, too many!
And he glanced through it.
Each one has thousands of words, it's simply terrifying!
"That's right. This is all because of Wang Shouyuan, the prefect of Longyang. He reported to the emperor that Song Gongwen ignored the actual situation and forcibly implemented the land tax system, abusing the national law. This caused chaos in the Longyang officialdom, the gentry suffered unjust treatment, and the people complained!" Zhao Lingying continued helplessly.
"Also, there is a joint memorial from officials at all levels of Longyang Prefecture, which also criticizes Song Gongwen. I really don't know how to deal with it. Your Majesty, please make your decision."
One memorial contained thousands of words, and one hundred memorials contained a hundred thousand words.
Especially the contents inside are different.
Almost changing the pattern.
He used various remarks to report Song Gongwen.
This Wang Shouyuan is too strong.
He is simply the keyboard warrior of the Wei Dynasty!
Wei Yunyi looked at the memorial on the table and was speechless.
They are truly a family that has offended the emperor for three generations in a row.
Although, he believed what this person said, that Song Gongwen forcibly distributed the tax on land, causing chaos in the Longyang officialdom.
But if we say that the people are complaining, this sentence can be ignored.
It is obvious that Wang Shouyuan deliberately framed him.
But about this.
Wei Yunyi was very happy.
As expected, Wang Shouyuan and his father-in-law had a fight in Longyang Prefecture, which was a good thing.
Under such circumstances, it is almost impossible to implement the land-based tax system smoothly.
only.
There was another point mentioned in the memorial.
It is intriguing to say that Song Gongwen abused the state law and caused the gentry to suffer unjust accusations.
Could it be that the other party would dare to use criminal penalties privately in order to implement the land-based tax system?
etc!
Suddenly.
Wei Yunyi thought of something.
That’s my father-in-law, who served as Shaoqing of Dali Temple for more than ten years.
What did the Dali Temple do? It tried cases, judged cases, and imposed punishments, etc.
If you say.
When Song Gongwen was implementing the land-based tax system, he encountered many obstacles and was harassed by the gentry. It seems not impossible that he became angry and chose to use punishment.
Wei Yunyi couldn't help but lean back in his chair, raising his eyebrows.
I didn’t expect that. I didn’t expect that.
Father-in-law, you are actually a cruel official!
certainly.
Wei Yunyi thinks so.
There is certainly some exaggeration in this.
After all, Wang Shouyuan is a member of a faction of the aristocratic family known to all the world.
This person wants to protect the interests of the gentry.
It must be an exaggeration.
Therefore, it would be good if you could believe 50% of what was said in the memorial.
but...
Even if his father-in-law really took action against the gentry and used punishment, he would not care much.
Those people, out of their own selfish desires, annexed people's land and raised the rent for no reason.
Not worthy of sympathy at all.
As long as Song Gongwen doesn't oppress the people, let him be.
"His Majesty?"
At this time, Zhao Lingying, who was standing aside, asked, "I don't know how to deal with these memorials. Your Majesty, please make your decision!"
The wording in the memorial was too sharp and full of resentment.
It's not just Wang Shouyuan.
There is also a joint memorial from officials at all levels in Longyang Prefecture. If any one of them is not handled properly, problems will arise.
"How to deal with it?" Wei Yunyi waved his hand and asked directly.
"Don't worry about it, just keep it here and don't send it out!"
"ah?"
Zhao Lingying was stunned when she heard this.
She had read many history books during this period and knew that the gentry were indeed not a good thing.
But these people are not only deeply involved with court officials.
And it has great influence in the local area...
If we ignore it and allow this situation to continue...
Zhao Lingying couldn't help but ask, "But Your Majesty, will this make the Longyang nobles dissatisfied?"
Just kidding, this is exactly the effect Wei Yunyi wants.
He was also afraid that those people had no resentment.
Otherwise, how can you ruin your luck?
and.
Wei Yunyi thought of another point.
At this critical moment, we must encourage our father-in-law.
Let the other party do it with confidence and boldness, and you can be more ruthless.
Then it completely aroused the rebellious psychology of those nobles.
Finally let them start a quarrel.
in this way.
There will definitely be more bad luck.
Thinking about this, Wei Yunyi said, "The land tax is distributed according to the land area. It is a national policy that I have established. It is meant to benefit the people. How can I compromise just because of the opposition of a few officials and nobles?"
"Therefore, not only must these memorials be kept in the palace, but you must also write a handwritten letter for me to inform Lord Song."
"Behind the scenes, I have your support. You are in charge of the land tax distribution. I feel at ease!"
All support except practical help!
Who doesn’t know that?
If my father-in-law could be a little bolder, without endangering the people.
This caused chaos among the Longyang gentry and officialdom, making it impossible to control the situation.
This kind of support is available in whatever amounts is needed.
"this..."
When Zhao Lingying heard this, she was completely confused.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems that this is the case.
Implement the policy of distributing land tax according to land area.
To put it bluntly, it is a reform, and any reform will always encounter various resistances and be opposed by many people.
But if we don't continue, the country will not be strong and the people will not be prosperous.
It's impossible that they would cause trouble just because of some officials and gentry.
