Knowing that Yun Zheng and Shen Luoyan had something to say, everyone stopped disturbing them.
Mrs. Shen helped Yun Zheng put the child next to Shen Luoyan and asked everyone to leave the room.
Yun Zheng walked over to Shen Luoyan and sat down, holding Shen Luoyan's hand tightly, "Thank God, you and your child are safe."
"I told you not to worry."
Shen Luoyan showed a happy smile on her face, and turned her head to look at the child beside her, "It's amazing to think about it. Two years ago, I was still like a child who hadn't grown up, and in the blink of an eye, I'm a mother."
"yes!"
Yun Zheng nodded in agreement, "I didn't expect that I would become a father so soon."
"Tell me, does this child look like you or me?"
Chen Luoyan smiled and asked a question that almost all mothers would ask.
"this……"
...
...
Yun Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I can't tell with his wrinkled appearance!"
He thought all newborns should look similar.
It seems too early to say who he looks like now.
"Actually, I can't tell."
Chen Luoyan smiled innocently, "But mom and the others said that this child looks like you! To be honest, when I first saw this child, I was scared by his wrinkled appearance! Fortunately, mom and the others said that many newborn babies are like this, and it will be fine when they grow up."
"Yes, it will be fine once it grows out."
Yun Zheng glanced at the child beside him and said, "Don't keep the child by your side all the time. Let the nurse take care of him first. Rest well and wait until you are better."
There are two wet nurses in the palace, so there is no need to tire Shen Luoyan.
Shen Luoyan's face showed a maternal glow, "I am always uneasy when my child is not around."
Some things are really hard to explain.
Chen Luoyan knew that the child would be well taken care of, but as long as the child was not around, she was always worried that the child would be hungry or cold, and afraid that something might happen to the child.
It seems that all her thoughts now are on the child.
"It's okay, I'll just stay with you."
Yun Zheng smiled, "Now, the most important thing is to take care of your body. You don't need to worry about the child."
"How can I let you always accompany me?" Shen Luoyan refused without thinking, "You take care of your own business, I'm fine! Maybe I just feel that the child is a little rare at the beginning, it should be fine slowly."
"Yes, it will get better slowly." Yun Zheng nodded and smiled, and then kissed Shen Luoyan gently on the lips, "You should take good care of yourself. When your body recovers, I will take you to fight the war to destroy the country!"
A war to annihilate a nation?
Shen Luoyan's eyes suddenly lit up.
She had longed to put on armor and fight the enemy since she was a child. After coming to Shuobei, she finally got her wish.
But when the war was at its fiercest, she became pregnant.
She missed too many battles this year.
Now that Yun Zheng offered to take her to fight in the war to annihilate the country, the long-dormant fire in her heart started burning again.
A war to annihilate a nation!
This is the greatest honor!
But soon, the look in Shen Luoyan's eyes gradually softened, "If you let me go to the battlefield now, I might not be able to leave Cang'er..."
Now she is more than just a princess.
She is also a mother.
"Children are children, and you are you."
Yun Zheng raised his hand and gently stroked Shen Luoyan's cheek, "You and I can't just live for our children, we have to live for ourselves! Fighting the war to destroy the country can also be regarded as fulfilling one of your wishes. It won't be too late to slowly become a good wife and mother in the future."
Everyone has their own dream.
Yun Zheng respects Shen Luoyan's dream and supports her dream.
Not everyone has the opportunity to participate in such a grand event.
Shen Luoyan tilted his head and thought about it, and the fire in his heart burned again.
"Thank you, husband!"
Shen Luoyan raised her eyes and looked at Yun Zheng affectionately.
…
Yun Cang is Yun Zheng's first child and the eldest son, so he naturally became the Prince of Jingbei.
Yun Zheng did not pardon all criminals because of Yun Cang's arrival. He just planned to use Yun Cang's arrival to exempt the people of Shuobei from one year's taxes, and all the soldiers in the army would have a three-day banquet.
This has a bit of a flavor of universal celebration.
Anyway, he got a lot of money and food from the third brother. After taking Fuzhou, he could buy food from the interior more conveniently. Besides, there were many official fields in Shuobei, so he didn't need to rely on the taxes in Shuobei to make a living.
After learning Yun Zheng's idea, Ye Zi was a little worried and advised: "There is no need to exempt the commercial tax, right?"
Land tax, commercial tax and head tax are the main taxes in Shuobei.
Other taxes can be basically ignored.
Yun Zheng wanted to exempt land tax and head tax, and Ye Zi had no objection.
But if commercial taxes are also exempted, Shuobei will basically have no tax revenue for a year.
Shuobei's tax revenue was already insufficient to cover its expenditure, and with this incident, the financial pressure is even greater!
Although Yun Zheng can make money, the entire Shuobei region cannot be supported by Yun Zheng alone!
"waived!"
Yun Zheng thought without hesitation, "It's a good opportunity to attract more people to come to Shuobei to do business! In addition, before the spring ploughing begins, we need to implement the tax system of equalizing the land tax in Fuzhou!"
"Is the tax rate based on the land area?"
Ye Zi didn't understand.
Yun Zheng knew that Ye Zi didn’t understand, so he started to explain to her.
Simply put, it means abolishing the head tax and some inexplicable miscellaneous taxes, and unifying taxes based on land. In addition, relaxing control over household registration will allow more landless people to survive by working and other means.
Listening to Yun Zheng's explanation, Ye Zi suddenly realized.
"Can this be slowed down a bit?"
Ye Zi frowned and said, "You have just become the governor of Fuzhou. If you implement the tax-sharing system now, it will affect the interests of many people and may cause chaos! Besides, how can you, the governor of Fuzhou, have the power to change the tax system?"
This is a good thing that benefits the country and the people.
But no matter what, Yun Zheng was only the governor of Fuzhou in name.
His power in Fuzhou is definitely not as great as his power in Shuobei.
If he rashly changed the tax system without the court's permission, it would definitely attract a lot of criticism.
Even if Yun Zheng is not afraid of these criticisms, it will not be good for his reputation.
"Don't worry, I will definitely submit a petition to the court!"
Yun Zheng said with a smirk on his face.
Um?
Looking at the smirk on Yun Zheng's face, Ye Zi couldn't help but be slightly stunned.
Based on her understanding of Yun Zheng, Yun Zheng must be trying to trick someone by showing this smile.
But who can be cheated by this matter?
As she was thinking, Ye Zi suddenly asked in astonishment, "You don't want to trick Yun Li again, do you?"
What a huge hatred and resentment this is!
Yun Li had deceived him so much, and yet he was still thinking about Yun Li?
He wants to kill Yun Li, where can he find such a good God of Wealth?
"It's not entirely a trick on the third brother!"
Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled. "I will have to purge Fuzhou's officialdom sooner or later anyway, so why not push this forward? If we can force the imperial court to implement the land-based tax system, it will be a hassle for the third brother, and more landless people can move into Fuzhou and Shuobei..."
The distribution of tax based on land area will indeed affect the interests of many people.
Especially those corrupt officials who made money by embezzling poll taxes and the wealthy class who owned large amounts of land.
However, he had already put the knife at the ready.
If anyone dares to cause trouble, we can clean them up at the same time.
Seeing that Yun Zheng had made up his mind, Ye Zi stopped trying to persuade him, "In that case, then do as you wish!"
"Don't worry, nothing will go wrong."
Yun Zheng comforted Ye Zi and instructed, "Tell the people in the mansion to buy more brown sugar."
"brown sugar?"
Ye Zi was confused, "Why do you need so much brown sugar?"
Yun Zheng blinked, "Keep it a secret for now, you'll know in a few days!"
