A Clash of Gods Chapter 536: Swords and crossbows

Longtai handed the fold to the side, looked at Sima Changshen, and asked, "When Zhongyi waits, what Feng Ruohai said, do you know what happened?"

Sima Changshen went down on his knees and shouted: "The emperor, the minister is not in the household, and I don’t know what the taxation of the court is."

Long Tai Road: "Feng Ruohai, since Zhongyi Hou did not know, you tell everyone to know, why is this Yi'an tax reduced by half in two years?"

"The emperor, the minister noticed that the taxation was wrong. At first, he only thought there was a natural disaster there, so the tax bank was delayed, and he sent people to question, but he did not get an answer." Feng Ruohai said: "Household officials After checking the accounts in Yi'an, all the taxes paid by Yi'an are now paid, and there is no arrears. The curiosity in the heart was later learned that the original land delivery by Yi'an has been reduced by half in just two years. "

"Why is this?" Longtai frowned: "How can the land be reduced?"

Feng Ruohai said: "Because some land is occupied by people, and these lands have become private land that does not need to be paid." The account book was taken out of the sleeve again, "Emperor, here is a detailed land accounting, two Within the year, more than 1,400 hectares of land were occupied by people."

Chongzhong Chongchen was slightly surprised in his eyes, thinking that he would only be afraid of something big today. Feng Ruohai was obviously prepared with sufficient evidence. Impeaching Sima Changshen, Feng Ruohai has also done enough work.

In the battle between Huainan King and Zhenguo Gong, Qi Ning watched with cold eyes, but after seeing Feng Ruohai taking out the evidence piece by piece, he felt that this was the real tough battle. There was not enough evidence, and the matter involved in the rivers and lakes, Qi Ning did not take these people into the eye at the beginning.

Sima Lan and Huainan Wang Xiaozhang were calm and calm from beginning to end, and the waves weren’t alarming. Jin Dao waited for Taihuang Huang just to feel the atmosphere in Fengtian Temple, squinting, if not looking closely, I thought He has fallen asleep.

Long Tai took a closer look and looked dignified, and asked, "Feng Ruohai, who is occupying these lands, and does not have to pay taxes?"

"Emperor, among the more than 1,300 hectares of land, 800 of them are official fields, and 500 of them are civilian fields, all of which are rich fields with abundant soil." Feng Ruohailang said: " The harvest of Guantian has always been directly included in the official treasury, and the 500 hectares of Mintian have always been paid in full. Although Yi'an is not a big place, it is in good weather and the harvest is quite rich. Tian was blatantly occupied by the people, and the five hundred dumping fields were also used by others. They swallowed up a little bit, and the taxes originally belonged to the court. Because they were occupied and exempted from taxation, they could not be collected, so the taxation in the past two years was suddenly reduced. Half."

Kunchen is very clear in his heart, but there are three taxpayers who don’t have to pay taxes in the field, one is the land of the conferred food, the second is that the private land does not have to pay after obtaining the merits, but there are strict The number of acres is limited, and the court is a senior minister to the elderly, and there are naturally more fields that do not have to pay taxes. The lower the merit, the lower the number. As for the last category, it is for the court, and the court specifically exempted from taxation.

Besides, it was natural disasters, the emperor opened his favors, and he was exempted from paying taxes.

Feng Ruohai said that the six hundred dumping fields don’t need to be paid, and to look at the whole Yi'an, only the Sima family can be so patient.

Many people are secretly surprised, thinking that Sima Lan was granted the title of loyalty, and the eatable Fengyi was only five hundred bucks. Among the four marquises, it is already second to none. The 300-pound field is more than double the food that Sima Lan has received. If this is the case, the 1,300 hectares of good land will be swallowed by the Sima family. .

Qing Ning also knew that Feng Ruohai was not like Zhao Bangyao. Since he said that someone had swallowed 1,300 hectares of Liangtian, then this matter must be true, and the person who devoured Liangtian was of course the Sima family.

Since the King of Huainan sent a servant of the Hube to go out, and was well prepared, he was obviously preparing to tear off a piece of meat from the Sima family. It is naturally impossible to defeat the town and the country, but to pull down Sima Changshen, It is not impossible.

On top of the hall, there was a sudden silence.

Everyone knows that both Huainan King and Zhenguo Gong have been brewing for a long time, and they are all ready to find opportunities to shoot at each other, but no one thought that this group actually came so fast. Feng Ruohai participated in Sima Changshen, Of course, no one knows beforehand, so it seems unusually abrupt.

Under this splayed atmosphere, no one can say lightly.

"You are participating in the loyalty and loyalty today, and this person who dominates the good land, you naturally refer to him." After a while of silence, the little emperor finally said slowly.

Feng Ruohai righteously said: "The man who returned to the emperor and invaded 1,300 hectares of good land was the Sima family." He took out a wand of paper again, "The emperor, this is a sentiment sent by the officials to Yi'an The confession that came out included local officials and people who had invaded Liangtian. There were a large number of people. They had recorded 23 confessions, all of which were signed and painted. These people were also brought into the capital to testify at any time." Only after submitting, did he continue to say: "Senters surveyed and learned that as early as a few years ago, the Sima family had begun to enclose land in Yi'an under various names, and forced the local people to work freely and cultivate the fields. Two years is even more so. These taxes that were supposed to belong to the imperial court have now entered the hands of the Sima family."

The little emperor repeatedly read the confession, and then the confessions were rolled into a ball and thrown in front of Sima Changshen, saying: "Sima Changshen, look at it yourself, can these confessions be true?"

"The emperor, the prince of the country is loyal to the country, conscientious and devoted, is the important minister of the country." One of the ministers walked out, with a fat figure and a high voice: "Feng Ruohai's words are pure slander, and the emperor is asked to investigate !"

The group officials looked at it and immediately recognized that it was Chen Lianting, the servant of the local government. He was not surprised. This town official was also the official of the local government, and Chen Lanting was the number one celebrity of the government, standing at this time. It's really reasonable to speak out.

"Chen Lanting, you don't need to rush to refute." The little emperor said lightly: "Feng Ruohai did not participate in the Gongzheng Gong Gong, but in the Zhongyi Waiting. Although the Zhenguo Gong and Zhongyi Waiting were privately father and son, they faced up. But they are colleagues and don’t need to be involved indiscriminately."

Chen Lanting was stunned and said: "Chen reckless. It's just Feng Ruohai's left Sima's house and right Sima's house. That's intentionally slandering the Sima's house. The minister is in the officials' department, and he sees the old country's hard work every day. For the sake of our country, we now have to be vilified by the villain for their family.

The little emperor waved his hand and ignored it. Sima Changshen took the confession and quickly turned it over, looking ugly.

"Zhongyihou, among these confessions, it is very clear that encircling the land and occupying the fields were all commanded by your Zhongyihou." Feng Ruohai sneered: "But I don't know if it is true?"

Sima Changshen looked at Feng Ruohai, his eyes were fierce, and he was about to speak, but he heard an old voice saying: "Master Feng, these confessions are not false. According to the old man, Sima Changshen really told people Do this." Everyone was shocked when they said this. When they saw the speaker, they were even more shocked. But it turned out that the person who suddenly spoke was Ma Lan, the company of the town.

The group officials looked at each other, thinking that the Sima family would make every effort to refute, who knows that Sima Lan even voluntarily confessed as soon as he opened his mouth. Some people couldn’t help but think, Sima Lan is old and confused, Feng Ruohai tried his best. To deal with your Sima family, it’s better now. You didn’t say a word of rebuttal. The opening was to admit it. Isn’t that pushing Sima Changshen into the fire pit?

Feng Ruohai's eyes crossed with joy, but Huainan King's body shook, but his expression calmed down.

Sima Changshen opened his eyes and felt a little unbelievable, but he saw the town official stepped forward and bowed: "The emperor, the old minister implored Sima Changshen to be imprisoned immediately and dealt with in accordance with the rules of the court."

"Dad!" Sima Changshen was shocked and could not help but exclaim.

Sima Lan turned back and said coldly, "There are no fathers and sons above the court, only the princes and colleagues."

The courtiers were all stunned, thinking that this old man seemed to be really crazy, and he even took the initiative to send his son to prison.

Some people also thought that Sima Lan might have seen Dong Chuang and wanted to abandon the car to keep him handsome.

Many people know that Sima Lan has the supreme authority in the Sima family. Although Sima Changshen is over forty years, he is very afraid of Sima Lan. Many officials and eunuchs are quite arrogant in the capital, and the Sima family His children have always been very low-key. This is obviously because Sima Lan’s family education is extremely strict and disciplined, so as not to cause Sima’s children to cause trouble outside.

Yi'an encircled the land, although Feng Ruohai sued Sima Changshen, and there is conclusive evidence~IndoMTL.com~, but without Sima Lan's advice, Sima Changshen was afraid that he would not have such guts.

At the moment, Sima Lan feels that something is going to be bad, so let Sima Changshen first convict, as long as the fire has not burnt him for the time being and free up time, he can naturally find a countermeasure.

Many people know that the criminal department is closer to the Huainan king. If Sima Changshen is really imprisoned in the criminal department, he will be offended.

Long Tai apparently did not expect Sima Lan to come out like this, frowning: "Lao Guo Gong, you mean, everything that Feng Ruohai said in his twists is true?"

"Yes!" Sima Lan said: "Yi'an has occupied some fields, and the taxes in recent years have indeed not been paid into the national treasury." Sima Changshen looked back and said : "Sima Changshen did participate in this matter, and he also asked the emperor to come down."

Houshu Shangshu Dou Kui saw this scene and went out to say: "Sovereign Emperor Qi Yun, the minister has a few words to ask the old man and ask the emperor to answer."

Longtai looked at Sima Lan, and Sima Lan turned around and asked, "What does Master Dou want to ask?"

"Lao Guogong, the lower official is in charge of the household ministry, where his responsibilities are. Although a few words are quite offensive, he still does his job in his place and asks Lao Guogong to forgive me." Dou Kui asked with cold expression. : "Zhongyihou instructed people to encircle the fields in Yi'an. I don't know when Lao Guogong knew? Lao Guogong didn't look at these confessions, he admitted that Zhongyi Hou did have this act. Things."

Sima Lan nodded slightly and said, "The old man has known it for a long time."

The group officials were slightly upset, and Dou Kui took a step forward, with a strong momentum, and asked aggressively: "Then the officials dare to ask the old country official, this is clearly a violation of the state law, the old country official is the old official of the country, wholeheartedly For the sake of publicity, why did he not make it clear to the court, but instead helped Sima Changshen conceal the matter?"
