Hu really couldn't understand why his father Li Changhao was so Dalian Cai valued him in Bianjing.

"Your father likes gold and stone, studies ancient scriptures, and vigorously promotes the system of etiquette, especially in the study of the Book of Changes." Li Qingzhao said, "Anyone who practices the Book of Changes is generally proficient in astronomy and divination, and your father is the best among them. Your father does not make predictions easily, but once the prediction is predicted, it will definitely be amazingly accurate, so he is very famous."

You can gain a reputation by telling fortunes to others? No way? My father is a liar in the world? Li Hu's embarrassing expression made Li Qingzhao laugh, "Your father is a genius and a versatile talent. There is nothing he doesn't know about in the world, and there is nothing he can't solve. However, he is indifferent by nature and likes to travel around famous mountains and rivers and make friends with heroes in the world. Although he is famous all over the world, he never manages a career. He often just gives ideas for your grandfather."

Li Qingzhao's thoughts returned to the innocent and romantic girl season. At that time, Li Changhao often took her among the green waters and green mountains, lingering... Sometimes she hated him very much, hated him for leaving her, hated him for allowing the world to be turned upside down, and hated him for leaving regardless of the life and death of his relatives and friends.

In her heart, Li Changhao was a mystery, a fog that could not be seen through. He had extraordinary abilities, but allowed the treacherous to perpetuate and poison the people; he could predict the future, but he was heartless and never tried to save it; but everyone thought that when he died, he was calling the wind and rain in Liaodong; but when the Han people in the north gathered under a large banner, he disappeared and handed over all the important tasks to his son.

Li Changhao, what are you doing? Do you want this world to be destroyed?

Li Hu began to describe the terrible scene of the destruction of the Song Dynasty.

The three women were focused on each other, while Li Hu talked endlessly.

The more the three of them listened, the more scared they became. Li Hu waved his hands. Although he had the heroic momentum of waving and giving advice to the country, there was only one theme, that is, the Song Dynasty was about to overthrow, and now he was the only one who could turn the tide.

Li has the right to say this.

When Li Qingzhao was discussing with a group of friends in Bianjing, he thought that Li Hu had the strength to save the Song Dynasty; when Princess Maode agreed to marry far away from home, the third brother of the emperor solemnly told her that if she did not negotiate peace with the Jin Dynasty, the Song Dynasty would definitely be Li Hu; and when Prince Roufu married Li Hu, the emperor's brother had only one sentence. If you marry him, the brother could protect the country.

"I am willing to fight for the Song Dynasty. But Da dragged my back and made me unable to move forward." Li Hu changed his mind and scolded the emperor and Bian Jing so hard that he was very angry.

I don’t give me money, food, and weapons. I don’t believe in my loyalty. Then I also want me to guard Shaanxi. I want me to defend Datong to the death. I want me to join the war in Hebei. What kind of war should I use? My army has no money, food, and weapons. When I go to the battlefield, I will die. The entire Tiger and Lieutenant Army was wiped out. What should I use to save the Song Dynasty?

"I will go back to Bianjing to help you ask for money and food from the emperor's brother." Xiao Gongji was filled with anger and blushing with a little face. She now knew that she had misunderstood Li Hu. Li Hu was under tremendous pressure. He worked day and night for the Song Dynasty, working hard and worked hard. But the emperor's brother and the shameless ministers of Bianjing were worried that raising tigers would be a problem. Without giving Hu Lie Army money, food and weapons, he forced the Hu Lie Army to fight on several battlefields. This is not equivalent to dying. The emperor's brother was lying to me to go back and settle the score with him.

"Even if you go back, you won't get any money or food." Li Hu smiled bitterly and said, "The financial crisis in the court began a few years ago. It is now even more collapsed."

"Will I have no money and food in the Song Dynasty?" The little princess didn't believe it at all. "Do you think I really don't understand at all? Ninety percent of my Song Dynasty's taxes come from south of the Yellow River, including Jianghuai, Liangzhe, and Jinghu, which account for more than 60% of them. What is the Grand Canal used for? It is used to transport the southeast's money and food to the north. Now wars are fought in the north, and the taxes there are originally little money and can't affect the tax revenue of my Song Dynasty."

"You know why, but not why," Li Hu smiled. "The finances of the Song Dynasty were mainly used for the expenses of the army, officials, government and royal family. The army was large in number. The Emperor of the Supreme People's Republic of China has been unable to make ends meet in recent years. With the beginning of the Northern Expedition, military investment expenditure was even more amazing. After several years of war, the national treasury has been seriously deficit. Although the court imposed heavy taxes, it could not solve the problem of shortage of money at all."

"Why did the rebellion break out in Jiangnan, Hebei and Shandong? It's very simple. The reason why the people can't survive is that they are forced by the government's heavy taxes and cannot rebel. There are more people who rebel, more wars are fought, and the local area is seriously damaged. The court needs more money to suppress the rebellion and stabilize the local area, so it further imposes intensive taxes. Such a vicious cycle has turned out to be a mess and there is no way to save it."

These words were simple and clear, and all three women understood them, and they were in a very heavy mood, especially the two princesses, who were even more worried. This was related to their own country, so how could they not be in a hurry?

"Brother Emperor has no money and food, and you have no money and food,

Do it? Can we not defeat the enemy? Are we going to destroy the country?" Tears were pouring out.

"There is a way," said Li Hu. "The national treasury has no money and grain, and the army has no money and grain, but local prefectures and counties have money and grain, local corrupt officials have money and grain, and local rich landlords have money and grain. We can't grab money and grain from the people, but we can grab it from local prefectures and counties and local bureaucrats and wealthy people, and every one is right."

"Role?" The three women were shocked. This man started to rob him from raising the flag to rebel, and began to burn, kill and plunder, and began to slaughter the city bloody slaughter, robbed Liaoxi from Liaoxi, robbed Youyan from Liaoxi, and robbed Daibei from Youyan and then robbed Daibei. Now he is finally going to rob him from Daibei to the northwest, robbed the Central Plains, and even the southeast.

"You want to burn, kill, kill, and plunder?" The little princess stared at Li Hu, her tone suddenly increased, and she almost screamed, "It's this time, do you want to burn, kill, and plunder? Are you trying to destroy my Song Dynasty?"

"Don't be excited, listen to me first." Li Hu said calmly and smiled, "You will know if you should rob it after listening to me."

The Song Dynasty was richest in the world. After the signing of the Song-Liao-Zhenyuan Alliance, the border was peaceful and the opportunity for rapid development was won. But soon, its fiscal crisis occurred, and the reason for the fiscal crisis was the national policy of the Song Dynasty.

The biggest feature of the Song Dynasty's official system is to try every means to weaken and divide local power in order to centralize power. Local military, political and financial supervision are each in a series, resulting in excessive dispersion of power, which forces local governments to rely too much on the central government and lose the autonomy and flexibility necessary due to regional differences, which leads to serious rigid system, extremely high administrative costs and extremely low efficiency, and corruption is becoming more and more intense.

This situation became more and more serious in the later period of the Song Dynasty. The disadvantages of the three redundant (redundant soldiers, redundant officials, and redundant expenses) were particularly prominent, and the finances were in crisis, and the financial crisis was the cause and driving force for the reform of the Song Dynasty. The Qingli New Deal and the Xining Reform came into being, but the reforms would inevitably touch the interests of vested interest groups. Therefore, the Song Dynasty repeatedly struggled between reforms and unchanging laws, and the new policy was implemented and abolished the new policy, and the struggle between the new party and the old party, and the power struggle with party struggles as the appearance.

The sway and repetition of the court's policies, the bloody struggle between the new and old parties in power, led to the reduction of the central authority and weakened the central power, and the corresponding one was that the local government obtained more power. The reason why the local government obtained more power was because the central government changed its orders every day, and the two parties took turns to rule in a row, resulting in the replacement of local bureaucrats like a lantern, which led to serious damage to the interests of scholars in both parties. Therefore, these vested interest groups began to blatantly and plundered national wealth intensified.

Wealth is the lifeline of the country. If interest groups want to plunder national wealth, they must first weaken the central financial power and strengthen local financial power. Turning the central money into local money and then turning local money into their own money is the best way to legally plunder national wealth.

The principle of the centralized fiscal system is "one in the world", that is, the financial resources of all regions must be compatible and evenly prosperous. In the early Song Dynasty, local finances were relatively abundant, and the central government could also achieve compatible and evenly prosperous and to a certain extent.

After the fiscal crisis emerged, the first thing the reformers thought of was to strengthen the central financial power, carry out state monopoly in the economy, increase revenue and reduce expenditure, and increase central financial resources. However, those who oppose reforms adhere to inherent policies, enhance local financial power, and be more laissez-free in the economy to increase financial resources. These two theories are attributed to specific policies, which is to redistribute the central and local financial powers.

The result of the fierce clash between the old and the new was that from around the middle of the Song Dynasty, the central government's management principles for local finances had obviously changed. Each transformation of the road began to rely basically on local fiscal revenue and implement a financial management policy of ** accounting.

Within each transfer commander, the implementation of "using the power of one state and one county to provide the expenses of one state and one county". Under the financial management structure of various types and counties, the fiscal revenue and expenditure of each region will appear lightly and seriously. Correspondingly, in order to cope with their own unique financial situation, the prefectures and counties will also create their own affairs in terms of financial revenue and expenditure, so that the fiscal system that is integrated into the world will be in a world-wide manner. This fiscal policy directly leads to the creation of financial resources and the formation of the root cause of corruption and abuse of power in various places for local interests.

The creation of financial management by all parties and their own affairs is reflected in the localization of the national financial system, that is, the compromise between the central and local governments, and the central government adjusts the national fiscal system to adapt to local needs.
