I am Da Song

Chapter 205 The emperor was furious, laying down millions of corpses
Zhao Huan's anger still stemmed from the blood-sucking and corruption of the country by the scholar-bureaucrats.

The reform of equal taxation for square fields and tax collection per mu has been implemented for more than half a year until December.The end of the year is the time to check and accept the results and collect taxes.

Zhao Huan had always thought that the reform would go smoothly according to the imperial court's plan, and the people of the Song Dynasty would be prosperous and the country strong.

But Zhao Huan still underestimated the shamelessness of the scholar-bureaucrats, the corruption of the bureaucracy and the resistance to reform!
As the emperor of the Song Dynasty, he was within sight, so he naturally had the constitution in his mouth, and he followed the law when he said it.

The ministers of the imperial court and the important ministers of the prime minister must move forward according to his will.

The policy was formulated, perfectly in line with his ideas, and went very smoothly.

His authority is fierce, and none of the chief executives dare to oppose his opinions.Therefore, the reform of the new law passed easily.

Because it has borrowed from various advanced tax systems of later generations, the new national tax collection plan is very concise and clear, and it reduces disturbance to the people and reduces the tax pressure on the people.

However, the perfection of this reform was only presented in front of Zhao Huan.When it was introduced to the local area, it encountered a lot of resistance.

Out of Zhao Huan's sight, where Zhao Huan couldn't influence, those scholar-bureaucrats who were used to domineering didn't care about Zhao Huan's will at all.

National tax?

When did our noble literati pay taxes!

All we want are privileges and tax exemptions.

At the end of the year, each state and county reported the land area measured in the past year, facing Zhao Huan's scrutiny, and finally exposed the darkness behind it.

Ji Xiang Yang Shi and Zhao Huan estimated that there is not even two-thirds of the one billion mu of land in the country!

The Great Song Dynasty managed to keep the more than 5 million mu of fertile land that the country had counted before, and it did not fall but rose.

There are only 3000 million mu of land that has been cleared across the country.

The literati still hid most of the land, at least [-] million mu!

How arrogant are these scholar-bureaucrats?

Jiangnan East Road, the land of fish and rice in the country, the granary of the Song Dynasty, actually has less land in Cetian than Guangnan East Road.

The land of Suzhou, an economically important city, is no match for Lingnan!
It was the data borrowed from Guangnan East Road that completely exposed the corruption of other officials from all walks of life.

The literati and bureaucrats in the Lingnan area were not very powerful, and the government was able to record most of the land in detail.

Jiangnan officials and scholar-bureaucrats who colluded and colluded with data ignored, or did not care about this wild land at all.

No one thought that that piece of land could count so many fertile fields.

As a result, something happened.

The most despicable and ugly faces of the literati and bureaucrats were completely exposed in front of the emperor.

This was a scandal that discredited the officials and scholar-officials of the entire Song Dynasty.

In the south of the Yangtze River, a large number of officials wrote letters, asking for their resignation.It belongs to taking the blame and resigning, losing face.We intend to end this matter here, and we return to our hometown in desperation, enjoying peace and luxury.Old emperor, you should choose someone else to appoint someone else!
However, Zhao Huan gave all instructions that no one is allowed to leave his post without authorization, and all officials who dare to leave the territory without authorization will be punished as the crime of abandoning the soil.

Corruption, bending the law for personal gain, ignoring national discipline, colluding with the gentry to embezzle and divide up the national wealth, just want to pat your ass and walk away?
Da Song's connivance with officials and scholar-bureaucrats without a bottom line ends here!

As the news got out, officials finally felt the storm was coming.This time, the emperor of Song Dynasty will never let go as lightly as usual.

The scholar-bureaucrats finally panicked, and the imperial court is determined to liquidate those who secretly obstructed and corrupted the country during the reform, and it is bound to set off a bloodbath.

If you don't kill a bloody river, you will never withdraw the knife.

Except for the Jin Dynasty, there is no dynasty where someone who opposes the emperor can get a good end.

And the aristocratic families of the two Jin Dynasties dared to challenge the emperor because they actually controlled a powerful army in their hands.

The premise of "the king and the horse share the world" is that Wang Dun's army can indeed beat the Sima family emperor to tears, saying that if Wang Dun wants to be emperor, just say it directly, and you can give him the throne, why bother to go to war ?
But how could the scholar-bureaucrats of the Song Dynasty have such confidence?
Besides, even if they have an army, how can they defeat the current officials?

It took only three months for Yue Fei to level the southeast completely just now. All the scholar-bureaucrats who wanted to take advantage of the national crisis to wrestle with the emperor were all dead, and now the grass on the grave is three feet high.

These scholar-bureaucrats have some tricks to make trouble secretly, and if they really want to fight the court with real swords and guns, no one dares to jump out.

Everyone guessed that when the deputy envoy of the Song Dynasty and the commander of the Shenwu Youjun returned to Tokyo from the front line, it was the time of liquidation for the government.

However, in the fear of countless people, Yue Fei still handed over Yan Yun's defense to Zong Ze, and he hurried back to Tokyo before the end of the year.

Looking at the schedule of the court meeting, Tokyo officials can also feel the thunderous anger brewing above their heads.

Yue Xianggong arrived in Tokyo on the night of December 26. On the 27th, the court immediately held a court meeting.

After all the court officials arrived at Wende Hall, it didn't take long for Zhao Huan to walk into the hall with vigorous steps.

All the most important officials and generals in the imperial court stood up at the same time, bowed and said: "I pay my respects to the official family, and I wish you all blessings."

"Excuse me, get up." Zhao Huan sat on the dragon chair, immediately looked at Privy Councilor Zhang Shuye, and asked, "Private Minister, how many troops can the court mobilize now?"

Everyone's heart tightened, and the emperor asked the number of troops when he came up, obviously he was not ready, and was ready to kill.

Zhang Shuye looked serious and spoke in a deep voice, and replied: "The Empress Shenwu's army has expanded to more than 35 people, and they are stationed in the city of Tokyo. The Imperial City Division's army has expanded to [-]. In addition, all places in the south are checking their household registrations and recruiting troops. Not counting the elite in Hebei, the number of new troops recruited successively in the South, the number registered by the Privy Council is [-]."

"Good!" Zhao Huan praised: "Under the leadership of the Privy Council, the Privy Council has a clean and honest atmosphere, capable and efficient, and it is really my waist."

"The minister just fulfilled his duties, and dare not be so praised by an official."

"Sit down, Prime Minister." Zhao Huan looked at Yue Fei and said, "Mr. Yue, the country's nearly 40 troops can be mobilized to ensure the stability of the court and suppress all disturbances and rebellions?"

Yue Fei was well aware of the important task of being transferred back from the front line at the time of the war. He immediately got up and said solemnly: "I think that the 35 new troops are scattered and stationed in various places, which is suitable for calming the riots in Tsoer. If there is a rebellion spreading, the scourge will be destroyed." In the prefectures and counties, the ministers must dispatch the army of the Empress Shenwu to wipe out all rebellious ministers."

With this guarantee, Zhao Huan has confidence in his heart.

Taking a deep breath, Zhao Huan looked at Qin Hui who had been sitting silently on the edge, and it was time to show his long-sharpened sharp edge.Let the lazy, corrupt, and pampered scholar-officials of Song Dynasty see what it means to have millions of dead bodies when the emperor is angry!

"Qin Zhongcheng!"
