Tian Fenggu's advice to Li was to let her elder brother come back to be the head of the family, and let Li Quanyi retire early... If this could be done, then the Li family would be very good to Li Quanyi. Otherwise, the consequences would be unpredictable. But if they could think like this, it does not mean that Li Quanyi would think like this. He felt that he was energetic, clear-minded, could completely control the Li family, and could also be a good family. He did not need his son to come back to help.

Li Yukun, the eldest son of the Li family, just returned, was kicked out of the house by Li Quanyi. Although he was the mayor of Longzhou City, he did not dare to have any temper in front of Li Quanyi. Li Quanyi told him to get out and could only return to Longzhou obediently.

"Father, have you asked your elder brother to return to Longzhou?" When Concubine Li received the news, his elder brother had already left Zhongdu Mansion.

"Yes, he is a parent official in Longzhou. How could he leave the jurisdiction for too long?" Li Quanyi said lightly. This time he was very dissatisfied with his daughter. Just let it go, but how could he still plot against his father?

"Where is the tax payment matter? Brother, can you discuss it with you?" Concubine Li was anxious. This was a major issue that concerns the life and death of the Li family. You can't be careless at all. Tian Fenggu's boss is likely to be Han Zhongwei. This person has always focused on the army and killing. If the Li family gets angry, will there be good results?

"You have your own plans for this matter, so you don't have to worry." Li Quanyi said lightly.

"No, my father, you must promise me and meticulously implement the imperial decrees, otherwise the Li family will be in trouble," Concubine Li said firmly.

"Rareless, when will it be your turn for the Li family? Although you are the imperial concubine, even the emperor is unable to protect yourself now, so there is no need to say that you, the imperial concubine. Don't worry, you are already from the Wanyan family. Even if the Li family is in trouble, you will not be able to implicate you." Li Quanyi sneered.

"Father, I don't mean that, but Tian Fenggu said that the court was serious this time and was about to kill the chicken for the monkey to see. We can't be this one who stands out." Concubine Li said impatiently. How can there be a finished egg when the nest is destroyed? The Li family is over, what's the point of her being alive?

"What do you mean is my Li family a chicken in the eyes of the court?" Li Quanyi snorted and sneered.

"Daughter dares," Concubine Li said in a hurry.

"Since the officials, the punishment was not as good as the literati and officials, and the tax was not as good as the literati. Now the Jin Dynasty may be over, but it is unprecedented to let the literati and officials pay the tax. Daughter, I think Tian Fenggu and his master are in trouble." Li Quanyi also walked around several families with a large amount of land in Zhongdu during this period. Everyone's meaning was similar. This matter cannot be compromised. This is a matter of the face of the court. They have decided to jointly write a letter to let the court take it back.

"Father, in ten days, it will be the tax payment date this year. The land in Zhongdu Prefecture is the earliest to measure. If the date is delayed, it will be terrible." Concubine Li advised.

"I'm going to fight anyway. This time we are not the first to be the leader. The property of the Su Mansion and the Wu Mansion are both Shangshu Master. The court must not refuse to give them a meeting, right?" Li Quanyi said.

"What you are talking about is Lord Su Ziren and Lord Wu Du?" Concubine Li said.

"Yes, although Lord Wu has been removed from his post and has also gone to Beijing, there is still the power to give memorials in the previous road, right?" Li Quanyi said with a smile.

"Okay, if things are not done, please pay the tax quickly." Concubine Li sighed.

"The prince, Su Ziren, Minister of Rites and Wu, the former household, both submitted official documents to Daogong. They said that their salary was meager and it was difficult to support the whole family, so they asked for a reduction in their land tax." After receiving these two documents, Tian Fenggu did not dare to be self-dedicated and hurried to find Han Zhongwei to make an idea.

"It's finally here. How many days are there before the deadline for paying taxes?" Han Zhongwei sneered.

"Nine Days."

"Okay, let's go for nine days first. Although it's good to kill one and warn a hundred, it can't be too much of a loss." Han Zhongwei said. Since they don't want to pay taxes, they should pay more taxes and give them a better memory.

"Yes, what about nine days later?" Tian Fenggu asked.

"Wu Du went to Shangjing, and his family also went. Why did he still have his own property in Zhongdu?" Han Zhongwei asked.

"Yes, as the Minister of Revenue, Wu Du spent tens of millions of yuan every year. It would be enough for him to eat and drink for several lifetimes. Now he still has more than 100,000 acres of fertile land in Zhongdu, and a housekeeper is also left at home to help him collect rent." Tian Fenggu said.

"Nine days later, let Su Ziren be dismissed, and then he will be convicted and the house will be searched." Han Zhongwei snorted coldly.

"Conviction, house search?" Tian Fenggu said in surprise.

"Yes, they said that their family has no money and books and newspapers cannot support their families. I want to see how much their wealth is. As for Wudu, as long as he doesn't come to pay taxes, you can urge him in three months and issue a tax recharge document. Then calculate how much his 100,000 acres of fertile land is worth. As long as his tax and fines are enough, he can confiscate the tens of thousands of acres of fertile land in a legitimate way." Han Zhongwei sneered.

Tian Fengye shivered. This was too cruel. The minister of the Ministry of Rites was going to be searched for his home because he resisted taxes. I wonder what other people who dared to resist taxes would look like when they heard the news.

Su Ziren is most concerned about his official document these days. Therefore, whenever he sees Tian Fenggu, he will ask himself for the reply to the official document, but Tian Fenggu only has four words for each reply: he is discussing. This made Su Ziren see a glimmer of light, but he did not notice that Tian Fenggu looked at him, which was a kind of pity and mockery.

Nine days later, Tian Fenggu called Su Ziren, "Mr. Su, you are the leader of the six ministries. I wonder if your family's taxes can be paid in full?"

"Mr. Tian, ​​aren't you kidding? Even the officials have difficulty making a living, so how can they have the extra money to pay taxes?" Su Ziren sighed, "Mr. I wonder if my official document requesting tax exemption has a reply?"

"I have it." Tian Fenggu said calmly.

"Please tell me, sir." Su Ziren said with a smile.

"The position of Su Ziren, the Minister of Rites, will take effect immediately." Tian Fenggu said coldly, "This is the reply to you."

"Mr. Tian, ​​what are you kidding? I just handed over the official document requesting tax exemption. Is it worth such a big fight?" Su Ziren shouted, "My sirs, you have to make the decision for me."

"Mr. Tian, ​​Lord Su has always been honest and dedicated, and he really has no spare money to pay taxes."

"Yes, Lord Tian, ​​isn't it just a document? There is no need to be such a serious dismissal."

"Mr. Tian, ​​if you want to remove Lord Su from his official position, please remove us. You can just do it alone in the court."

"Section"

"Section"

...

"Oh, no one wants to be an official?" Tian Fenggu didn't expect that if he just waived Su Ziren's position as Shangshu, he would have received support from so many people.

"Please take back your life"

"Please take back your life"

“…”

"If you don't want to be an official anymore, leave your official hats and uniforms, and you can leave now." How could Tian Fenggu surrender to them in this matter? Tax policy is related to Han Zhongwei's world. Will he definitely be disturbed? Who dares to make trouble? There is only one ending, miserable situation.

The officials who were still forcing their resignation just now, and when they saw Tian Fenggu being serious, some people started to give up, as if they didn’t have to give up their future for Su Ziren. Of course, some people were sincerely supporting Su Ziren. After hearing Tian Fenggu’s words, they took off their official hats and uniforms without hesitation.

"Can Mr. Niu be there in the Ministry of Personnel?" Tian Fenggu asked. The Lord Niu he called Niu Jinbao, who was the Minister of Personnel.

"The official is here." Niu Jinbao hurriedly stepped forward.

"You will record all those who resign today. At the same time, the Ministry of Personnel immediately issued a document. Those who have no Shangshu will be given the Left Minister, and those who have no servants will be given the Yuanwailang. And so on, it must be done today." Tian Fenggu said.

His move was too amazing. Originally, those officials just wanted to stretch Tian Fenggu. Someone in the court had to do things. More than a dozen of their officials resigned at once. What can you do when Tian Fenggu? As long as Tian Fenggu becomes soft, things will be easier. But I never expected that before they left, Tian Fenggu immediately arranged for someone to take over their positions. In other words, they would never be able to regain their positions.

"Sir, obey the order," Niu Jinbao said loudly. After he stepped down, he wiped his sweat quietly with his sleeve. He wanted to support Su Ziren just now, but he was still hesitant and did not make up his mind. After only a moment of slowing down, everything would be settled. If he had done a reckless move just now, I am afraid that the Shangshu has already been replaced by someone else.

Su Ziren's face looked like earth. He looked at Tian Fenggu angrily, "Mr. Tian, ​​is this too hasty?"

"I have the final say whether you are hasty or not. You are no longer the Minister of Rites, but just a civilian. People come and take all the dismissed people down and take good care of them." Tian Fenggu said.

"Sir, Lord Tian, ​​I was wrong. I was blinded by lard just now. I don't want to resign." An official who followed the trend suddenly ran to Tian Fenggu, crying with tears in his mouth.

"It's too late, the official uniforms are given to you by the court. How can you take them off easily? It's easy to take them off, but if you want to put them on again, hum, let's go for the next life," Tian Fenggu snorted coldly.

"I dare to ask Lord Tian, ​​since we have resigned, why do we still have to obey us and not let us go back?" Su Ziren was the leader of the six ministries just now, but in a blink of an eye he became a prisoner. He was also panicked. What taxes he was fighting for, but now he also knew that it was impossible to turn back.

"The house is raided" Tian Fenggu said these two words coldly, "Didn't you say that the family is so poor that even the family can't support it? I want to see how poor the Su family is."

"Sir, I'll just search the Su Mansion?" The official who had just knelt down at Tian Fenggu's feet had almost regretted it. He was not afraid of losing his official position now, and his family still had some assets, but once the house was searched, everything would be over.

"I really forgot if you don't say it. Since that's the case, let's copy and read it together. You have been an official for so many years. I want to know how much oil and water you have scraped." Tian Fenggu sneered.

The official under his feet turned pale and fainted on the spot. How could he say that he was so polite? At the beginning, Tian Fenggu must have only sent a copy of Su Ziren's home. Now, everyone is worried about him.

"From tomorrow, officials who cannot make up the taxes within ten days as scheduled will be appointed to search their homes." Tian Fenggu said murderously. His words made almost all officials' faces pale immediately. Although the date of paying the tax has passed, who would pay except for a few officials who paid the tax? Everyone was waiting to watch the show, but unexpectedly the show was too short and ended just at the beginning, and it made them feel frightened. Now they all want to do one thing, go back immediately to let their families pay taxes, and there will be thousands of officials in it. If these people have not paid the tax, then the fun of these ten days will be great. Being able to pay taxes will become a blessing.

The Su Mansion was the first to be confiscated. Su Ziren's wealth was certainly impossible for him to be unable to support his family. In fact, the property retrieved from the Su Mansion surprised Han Zhongwei who received the news. Gold, silver, jewelry, jewelry, copper coins, calligraphy and paintings, and antiques were filled with more than 300 cars. If so much wealth could not support Su Ziren's family, then unless his family had to eat gold every meal, and at least ten gold was needed for each meal.

There were a lot of things collected from the homes of more than a dozen other officials, and there were more than 300 cars in total. In just two days, seven hundred cars of property were added to the treasury. It is estimated that the value of these seven hundred cars of property was at least more than 10 million guan.

**, no wonder Yongzheng liked to search homes. It turned out that searching homes was much better than impressing. The money sent to the treasury was just cash, and the property, shops, and fields of these people in Zhongdu, if they added up, there were tens of millions of yuan. Among them, there were more than 500,000 acres of land alone. Among them, Su Ziren's family occupied more than 160,000 acres.

Su Ziren lost his official position and confiscated his house, which shocked Li Quanyi, who had been looking forward to it. Su Ziren is the leader of the six ministries. Compared with the outdated Li family, the people are much more tough. But even so tough, Tian Fenggu made Su Ziren become an official position and confiscated his house with just one word. Moreover, none of the officials who dared to support Su Ziren were left behind and were all dismissed from their posts and confiscated their houses.

The court's thunderous methods made Li Quanyi's eyes dark and he almost fainted on the spot. After he came to his senses, he immediately asked the housekeeper to pay taxes to the Ministry of Revenue. Now the tax payment period has passed, and every day he has to pay one cent more tax, which is one percent of the total tax. Li's house is a big taxpayer, and even one percent is a large amount.

The housekeeper went to pay taxes in the morning, but until dark and before he could see him come back, Li Quanyi was surprised. He was afraid that the headmaster would have an accident, so he hurriedly took a few servants to the Ministry of Revenue. There were two streets away from the Ministry of Revenue, and Li Quanyi's sedan chair could not pass by. Why? The entire street was blocked, and it was all people who squeezed him. It would be difficult for him to get through alone, let alone he was still a sedan chair.

"Go and ask, what happened before?" Li Quanyi lifted up the curtain of the car and glanced at it, and ordered the servants next to him.

"Master, these people are all here to pay taxes, because there are too many people, and they are already ranked here." The servant quickly found out and hurriedly came to report to Li Quanyi.

"Didn't it mean that few people come to pay taxes?" Li Quanyi was very confused. Ordinary farmers paid taxes in the village, and the principle of paying taxes was basically the principle of who was in charge of paying taxes to whom. Logically, Li Quanyi should pay taxes to Zhongdu City, but his identity was different, and the court also sympathized with them and asked them to pay taxes directly to the Ministry of Revenue. This was also a special treatment for them.

Two days ago, Li Quanyi passed by here and found that the household registration department was deserted. Could it be that it was because he was frightened by the dozen officials' house searches? Kill the chickens for the monkey to show them, and these chickens were really good choices.

"Because the court issued an order yesterday, if officials need to pay taxes, they must pay them within ten days, otherwise they will be the same as Lord Su and others, and they will be appointed as officials to search the house."

"Is this official a Beijing official or a local official?" Li Quanyi was anxious when he heard this. There were many officials in his Li family. If they were asked to be appointed as officials because they did not pay taxes on time, and even had their houses confiscated, it would be really unfair.

"I don't know, it should be all the officials."

"Hurry up, go and find General Manager Li." Li Quanyi's eyes were dark again. It was nothing if the tribe members were appointed as officials, but once their house was searched, my god, the Li family will be finished.

"Master." General Manager Li was soon called. He was actually on the street in front, hundreds of steps away from the Ministry of Revenue.

"Li You, have we paid our taxes?" Li Quanyi asked hurriedly.

"Master, have you seen it? Don't say that today, it's good to be able to pay taxes in three days." Li You sighed. When he came in the morning, he was shocked by the scene. He only heard that he was anxious to collect money, but he had never heard of paying money. Later, he heard about the new policy issued by the court, and then he knew why it was so popular today.

"How can this be done? It's easy to pay taxes in three days, but still not paying them? By the way, Li You, if we don't pay taxes, we won't implicate the young master and the others, right?" Li Quanyi's most worried about now is this.

"Master, I'm afraid it won't be as you wish. Today, the Ministry of Revenue has handed over the payment receipt to the young man, which clearly stated that if the Li family's mansion cannot pay the full tax within ten days, all the officials of the Li family will be removed from office, and the Li family will also... be searched." When Li You said the latter, his voice became smaller and smaller, but he had handed the notice to Li Quanyi.

Li Quanyi took advantage of the light outside and looked carefully at the Notice of Refund, which was sealed by the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of Revenue. It was clearly written on it, and even listed the names of all the officials of the Li family, as if the Ministry of Personnel would be dismissed from office as soon as the ten-day period arrived.

The more Li Quanyi looked, the more sweat it was on his forehead. No, there was no accident in this matter. "Li You, you can no longer pay taxes now, right? Go home with me."

"Master, I don't dare to do it. I'm all lined up there today. If I come again tomorrow, I might be lined up behind a few streets. I've called a few servants to guard there, and we won't go back tonight." Li You said.

"Okay, but it's cold tonight, you have to be careful." Li Quanyi reminded him that he must go back immediately and ask his daughter to find Tian Fenggu again. Last time he pleaded for tax exemption, and this time he paid tax quickly. There should be no problem now, right?

Think about it, I am really a shameful person. If I paid the tax a few days ago, would this happen?
