So it's nothing.
As for the coastal areas, they are now peaceful because of the last war.
As for the imperial court, the land-based tax system promoted by Song Gongwen has been completed in the Jiangnan area and is now being steadily implemented throughout the country. Judging from the time, it should not take too long.
The reason is very simple. The most difficult gentry in the Jiangnan area have already compromised. Other places may encounter resistance, but it will definitely not be a big deal.
So Zhao Lingying was also very happy, knowing that as long as the reform was successfully implemented, the court's finances would increase greatly next year.
As for Wei Yunyi, he was indifferent about it.
At the beginning, he did not want the implementation of the land-based tax system to be successful.
They even wanted to use this to destabilize the government.
Unfortunately, all the developments were beyond my expectations.
In the end, I simply chose to let nature take its course and let the reform succeed.
If it can reduce the burden on the people, why not do it?
After all, I now have more than one way to ruin the country's destiny.
Of course, Wei Yunyi still felt uncomfortable when he heard this. After all, this would increase the country's fortune.
But soon, when Zhao Lingying began to report that there seemed to be financial holes in the Grand Canal and Weizhidao projects, the haze in his heart was swept away.
He had high hopes for those two major projects. This month and next month, the country's destiny could be ruined depending on them.
Wei Yunyi knew very well that as long as the Grand Canal and Weizhi Road were not completed, the national strength would inevitably be depleted.
What does the fiscal revenue brought by the reform of equalizing the land tax count for?
It can be completely offset, don't panic!
"His Majesty!"
At this time, Zhao Lingying held up the memorial in her hand and said immediately, "Your Majesty, this is a memorial submitted by Usdu Hu, saying that the recent situation in Tiandu is a bit strange."
The Wusi Protectorate was established in the Wusi area of the Great Wei Dynasty. It was also the only protectorate of the Great Wei Dynasty before the establishment of the Gaoyang Protectorate.
The reason for this is that the situation in that place is complicated and the person in charge must have both military and political powers.
This Protector General took office three years ago. He was born in poverty but had outstanding talent.
Many years ago, following the late emperor, his loyalty was beyond doubt.
This is one of the important reasons why he was able to serve as the Protector of Usidu.
But it is precisely because of this person.
This made it easier for the imperial court to control the Wusi region.
Because the position of Protector-General had great military and political power, and its purpose was to defend the territory.
At this moment, Wei Yunyi heard the other party's memorial saying that the situation in Tiandu Kingdom had changed, and he immediately fell into deep thought.
If it was just an ordinary matter, the Protector of Usui would hardly submit a memorial and would handle it on his own. Only when it was a major matter would Xuan Cang report back to the court.
This made him somewhat suspicious. Could it be that the Tiandu Kingdom was preparing to send troops to take over the disputed area at this time?
However, Wei Yunyi just thought about it briefly in his mind. The key still depends on what the memorial says.
He immediately looked up and asked, "What's going on?"
"Reply to Your Majesty."
Zhao Lingying naturally didn't dare to hide anything. She picked up the memorial and began to explain directly, "Usdu Hu said that the situation in Tiandu has been extremely unstable recently. King Ali's cruel and brutal methods have caused great dissatisfaction among his ministers and the great clans."
"And just recently, King Aqin's lineage suddenly rebelled, declaring they would no longer obey King Ali's orders and preparing to govern themselves."
"This move has attracted the response of many major clans in Tiandu, and they all support King Aqin's lineage!"
After hearing this, Wei Yunyi was a little confused.
He knew about the lineage of King Aqin. This lineage's ancestor was on good terms with Emperor Gaozu of the Wei Dynasty, and they called each other brothers.
And it's not just what it seems on the surface. They support each other and have a very deep friendship.
However, their descendants gradually lost power and were later usurped by King Ali.
At first, King Ali wanted to kill all the descendants of King Aqin.
However, due to the high prestige of the latter in Tiandu Kingdom, if they were all killed, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction among various forces. In order to stabilize the power in his hands, King Ali directly gave the lineage of King Aqin a fiefdom and drove them out of the center of power.
In recent years, as his power has become increasingly stable, King Ali once again came up with the idea of wiping out the roots.
At the same time, he also wanted to suppress other big families in the country in order to seize the real power.
And in order to do this.
King Ali chose to provoke Wei and take back the disputed land.
The purpose is to increase one's own prestige and make the path to withdrawing all one's strength smoother.
But what was unexpected was that the lineage of King Aqin actually directly declared autonomy and openly opposed King Ali.
This situation made Wei Yunyi shudder with fear.
Because in his thoughts.
There will inevitably be some conflict between Tiandu Kingdom and Great Wei, and Great Wei will have to choose to compromise. In this way, the luck will definitely be greatly reduced. After all, this is also a war between two countries, which will definitely have an impact.
But now, at this most critical moment, such a thing actually happened in Tiandu.
Is it possible for the two countries to continue to clash? Absolutely not.
It should be noted that the lineage of King Aqin has great prestige in the Tiandu Kingdom.
Now, various major clans have responded.
King Ali must have been very troubled by this and would no longer have the energy to deal with Wei.
"This..." Wei Yunyi was completely confused, because in his memory, this kind of thing had never happened.
"Your Majesty." At this moment, Zhao Lingying put down the memorial in her hand, a smile appeared on her face, and then she continued, "Your Majesty, Tiandu is currently in civil strife, and King Ali is preoccupied with his own affairs. I believe that there will be no more conflicts and bloodshed in the Wusi region of our Great Wei."
