Jia Ping'an analyzed: "With a population of 100 million, there are so many new babies every year. Ten years later, the population of 200 million will double if there are no accidents. Your Majesty, where is the field?"

You only thought of collecting taxes according to the land and head, but have you ever thought that the lack of land will cause the people to live in poverty and lead to financial collapse?

Jia Pingan sighed, feeling that this matter was really bad, "There are only so many fields in Datang, and the rich and powerful temples do not pay taxes, and their fields will increase, which means that Datang's tax sources will increase. less...

In the end, their brains were full of fat, but the common people were in dire straits.The most important thing is that they keep annexing the land. Once the land is not enough to use, Your Majesty, finance is only one of them. How can the military system be maintained? "

Is this stick strong enough?

But this matter is not easy to handle, if it is not done well, it will be broken.

Let the emperor hit a wall.

Jia Pingan resigned.

Li Zhi sat there for a long time.

"Queen, Your Majesty has been in a daze for more than an hour."

Wu Mei rushed over after hearing the news, saw Li Zhi sitting there kneeling, staring blankly at the table, and asked closely, "Your Majesty, have you encountered a difficult problem?"

Li Zhi raised his head and saw that Wu Mei's eyes were stern, so he held her hand and said with a wry smile: "I have been thinking about how to make the Tang Dynasty prosperous for a long time, and I have gained a lot in recent years, and I am quite satisfied, but What Jia Pingan said today made my heart flutter."

"Safety……"

Wu Mei gritted her teeth and said: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, when I turn back, my concubine will clean him up and hang him outside the palace gate to dry."

Li Zhi smiled and shook his head, "What Hao Mi said yesterday made me a little puzzled, and I asked Jia Pingan to say something earlier..."

He frowned, looking quite distressed, "The population will grow faster and faster, but the fields will become less and less..."

"Merger?" Wu Mei became more and more familiar with the entire Tang Dynasty through participating in political discussions these days.

"Yes! Annexation." Li Zhi said sarcastically: "The powerful monks control a lot of people and land, and they don't need to pay taxes. The more they control, the harder the life of the people will be, and the life of the Tang Dynasty will be even worse. stretched."

"With less land, the common people have no land to divide. They either go into business, or they can only..."

Li Zhi clenched his fist with his right hand and beat the case a few times, "At that time, how will the government soldiers survive? Without the fields, what will the government soldiers do for a living?"

He closed his eyes, "I seem to see those soldiers roaring, unwilling, and then they can only recruit troops. But recruiting troops is expensive, how can the government support this expenditure? In this way, either excessive taxation is required, or the army can only be allowed to go. make money yourself...

Mei Niang, do you know what will happen once you let go of the shackles of the army? "

"Those arrogant soldiers will roar at Chang'an, and the Tang Dynasty will...be full of flames." Wu Mei obviously also thought of this result.

Li Zhi nodded, "The advantage of the mansion army system is that generals can't specialize troops. On weekdays, the soldiers practice in Zhechong Mansion and farm in their spare time... As long as the military achievements are rich and better than farming, the mansion army system will last for a long time. But Jia Ping'an's The description makes me shudder."

"The fields... will definitely not be enough."

Li Zhi murmured: "How to do it?"

He got up suddenly, and said with piercing eyes: "We must restrain the land annexation. If I can't do it, the prince and the others will have a harder time, and they won't even be able to move!"

Wu Mei looked at him with admiration in her eyes, "Your Majesty is decisive."

Who doesn't know the disadvantages of land annexation?

The former Han Dynasty fell down on this, but Mao didn't use it.

Li Zhi strode out, and said loudly: "This is the root of my Tang Dynasty's troubles, Mei Niang, in my lifetime, I must solve this matter, so that the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty... will last forever!"

……

The emperor summoned his important ministers, and they didn't know what they said, and there was an uproar in the court.

Later, Li Zhi lay on the bed, clutching his forehead, feeling that his head was going to burst.

"His Majesty is ill."

The medical officer came to a conclusion with ease.

Wu Mei stood outside with her hands behind her back, "Those people... are extremely bold!"

Wang Zhongliang came out, "Today, His Majesty said that he wanted to suppress the land annexation, but most of the prime ministers opposed it, saying that it would arouse the anger of the people of the world."

Wu Mei said coldly: "Is it to arouse the anger of the rich and powerful?"

The queen is so sharp, she is harder to serve than your majesty... Wang Zhongliang nodded, "Your Majesty mentioned the plight of population growth and insufficient land, but..."

"Those people don't involve their own interests, so they talk freely and eloquently. Once they want to cut their own flesh, they will change in an instant, with hideous faces, shameful! Despicable! Ridiculous!"

Wu Mei turned around and went in.

"Mei Niang."

Li Zhi's face was pale, "I just wanted to test it out, but just as soon as I opened my mouth, the ministers objected and became aggressive...I'm afraid I won't be able to manage the council these days, so you should be optimistic about the court."

Wang Zhongliang was shocked.

This is... Is this letting the queen be the director?

Wu Mei held his hand, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, this concubine will find a way."

"It's just a test." Li Zhi smiled wryly. "I can't sing alone, you..."

Wu Mei went back, and immediately summoned Li Yifu, Xu Jingzong and others.

"Your Majesty is sick with anger, what can you do about this matter?"

……

good night!

Chapter 630

The emperor is ill.

Gao Yang hastily entered the palace to inquire.

"Princess, Your Majesty is mad at the ministers."

Wang Zhongliang secretly talked about it.

Gao Yang stomped his feet, "How can such things be done? The emperor is Meng Lang."

Wang Zhongliang coughed dryly.

Princess, this is wrong!
