Chapter 2437： I praised you for looking good

When Yun Dai entered, she saw Zhao Yuanjing holding the medicine bowl in one hand, and still flipping through a stack of books such as account books.

Liu Dequan reminded him softly: "Father, my mother is here."

Zhao Yuanjing looked up, saw Yun Dai, and suddenly felt bright, and the room seemed to be a little brighter.

"It looks good." Zhao Yuanjing's eyes were full of admiration and surprise. "Until now, I really understand the meaning of that brilliance."

Yun Dai walked over with a smile, and said, "The emperor is neither a horrible place nor a cheap place. Where is the pungent man?"

"Master praised you for your good looks."

"Is it good-looking, or is this peacock feather cloak good-looking?"

"Naturally, Dai'er looks good. If there is no beauty, this dress is just a dead thing, what's the point."

"The emperor is now more able to talk to make people happy." Yun Dai squatted in front of him, tilted her head to look at the booklet in front of him, and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Zhao Yuanjing smiled and said, "It's the end of the year. Look at the tax items submitted by various places."

The bulk of the revenue of the national treasury depends on the annual corvee tax.

Naturally, it is important.

In the first few years, in order to reduce the burden on the people, Zhao Yuanjing ordered various tax reductions and exemptions. Especially in the Northern Qi Dynasty, almost no taxes are collected, but the court has to allocate a lot of money.

This is why the revenue of the treasury is always stretched.

Zhao Yuanjing clicked on the account book and said, "Reducing taxes in recent years has made life easier for the people. But the pressure on the court is great. The palace has always been inspected. You mother and son have followed me, and you haven't had any rich days. "

He looked at the peacock hair cloak on her and sighed, "You are the Queen of the Six Palaces, giving you such a dress, you think it is too luxurious. If it was in the first emperor period, let alone the queen, it would be the lowest-ranked lady. Concubine, the emperor said that he would be rewarded, and he never cared about the price."

The room was warm with a charcoal basin, and Yun Dai took off the cloak and handed it to Liu Dequan to hang it up.

Yun Dai smiled and said, "Do you have to live a life of extravagance to be a queen? If that's the case, why is there such a surprise that you gave me a peacock feather cloak? Even if you are the emperor, I am a queen, and after all, I am just an ordinary person. It takes three meals a day to live an ordinary life."

What she said was plain, but it was moved.

Zhao Yuanjing smiled and said: "In the past few years, the people’s life has also eased. I think, after the new year, the taxation of Northern Qi will gradually resume. In this way, you don’t have to take money from your Yunji to fill the hole. ."

"For me, if money is of no practical use, it is just a number." Yundai said, "I value Yunji not only because it can make money, but also because Yunji can improve our technological level and productivity in Dazhou. Zhou developed from an agricultural society to an industrial society."

Zhao Yuanjing sometimes did not understand the words that popped out of her mouth, but he rarely asked.

Sometimes, the questions that he knew so much about her would occasionally flash in his mind.

But it was just a passing thought.

He never wanted to question or ask anything in the past.

No matter how she knows so much, it doesn't matter to him.

No matter what kind of her, he accepts it all.

Seeing that he hadn't spoken, Yundai also realized that she had forgotten for a while and said too much.

She sat next to him and smiled: "Is the medicine finished?"

"It's finished." Zhao Yuanjing handed the medicine bowl to the maidservant who stood by.
