Be a good mother-in-law

Chapter 156 The Daughter-in-Law Was Once a Brothel Girl 41
The new law is very different from the old law of the previous dynasty.

Pay more attention to life, and only a few are capital offenses.

Killing at will is prohibited, regardless of status.

Except for the death penalty, all other punishments were cancelled, leaving only one: paying for crimes with work.

Those who violated the law were sent to local yamen to work as coolies, responsible for building roads, dredging embankments, repairing houses for ordinary people, and harvesting crops every year...

How many years of coolie should be done according to the seriousness of the crime.

In addition, the new law added a lot of regulations to protect civilians, the elderly, the weak, women, children, and the sick.

Brothels have also been cancelled, and prostitutes who have nowhere to go will be taken in and resettled by women's schools in various places.

……

Among them are a few articles about the Royal Trading Company, which clearly stipulates that the goods of the trading company cannot be hoarded, and they cannot be resold at high prices, etc., which prevents some people from wanting to make money from the emperor.

The new law caused quite a commotion, causing some people to jump up and down and cause a lot of coolies in the local yamen.

Built a lot of houses for the local people, and recorded a sum in the achievements of the local officials.

The officials and the people have fun together.

Seeing such a result, those who were still dissatisfied all endured it and said nothing more.

The Royal Commercial Bank was very successful. Han Jianming checked the ledger handed over from the bottom and felt that if such a profit could be maintained, there would be no need to collect taxes at all.

But he did not issue such an order, and only wanted to wait for three years to pass before making plans.

At that time, regardless of whether the treasury is full or not, the tax will be collected for one year. If the treasury is full in the next year, it will be exempted for one year, and the next year will still be full, and then it will be exempted...

After that, if the national treasury is full, it will be exempted year after year, and only collected once in a while.

After calculating the money in his hand, Han Jianming started to do something that should have been done earlier.

Award meritorious officials.

Those who followed him through life and death and made great military exploits were not missed, and their titles were sealed without blinking an eye.

Rewarding land, rewarding money, and returning dividends to the royal firm are very generous.

Han Jianming wanted to make the old lady a prince for fun, but was rejected by Shi Suan. The new dynasty has just been established, so it is not suitable for so many things, and she doesn't care about these false names.

And, it's time for her to leave.

Looking across the family of three, "Jianming, Wanniang, Han Jiang, I have to go."

"Old lady!" The three said in unison, with expressions of shock and disbelief.

"Don't look at me like this. I've lived for so long. I should have left long ago. I've seen all the people in the village in the past few days. Hello everyone, I don't have anything to shake."

Tears welled up in the eyes of the three of them, and they kept shaking their heads, as if they could keep her in this way.

"take care."

Lycoris left this extremely old body and left this world.

The family of three burst into tears, guarding the lifeless body, weeping until they couldn't breathe.

After a long time, Han Jianming regained his composure, and made the old lady the Empress Dowager, and she will be buried in the next day.

Except for the people in Jiangtian Village, everyone thought that the dead was the emperor's grandmother, so they consciously hung up white lanterns and stopped all feasting and merrymaking.

No one outside knows about this old man's deeds.

Not many people pay attention.

This was caused by Han Jianming's deliberate concealment.

After all, the old lady's experience in this life is related to the past of her parents. Although they have let go of these pasts, it does not mean that everyone who is willing to make them know about them, and they will be used as chatter after dinner.

As a son, he must protect his parents.

And this matter can only be hidden for a while, he is just delaying time, looking for a more suitable time.
