Song Qingming hurriedly raised his foot and walked in. Guo Shitong followed him unyieldingly. Not far behind him, Huang Tang and Zheng Xiao were walking side by side. There were no one around them. Looking at the place where Song Luo and Bai Beitang passed in front, there were crowds of people, and they couldn't help but bow their heads.

After the great waves washed away the sand, it seems that the Song family has become the biggest winner, while the Bai family escaped. The encounter with the Bai family caused many officials to discuss privately. After all, it is surprising that the position of deputy prime minister was retained without being affected by the affairs of the prime minister of Tang.

Zheng Xiaoxiong groaned from his nostrils: "The Bai family is obviously unable to bear the great responsibility. If he studied the old things deeply, how could he escape cleanly?"

"Because of the rumors, Your Majesty did not want the people to think that he was an ungrateful person, so he let the Bai family escape unscathed. I really don't know who was disrupting the situation. It was possible that the two families could have taken it together." Huang Tang had no objection to Song Luo, and only sighed that Bai Beitang was still in power.

Where did this plan come from? He had learned from Princess Jinhua that he was happy to know that His Highness had not died. He was also amazed that Qin Feng played the trick of beating the cow from a distance. A picture of Tianji left Prince Tang imprisoned, but it was a pity that there was a fish that missed the net.

No, Huang Tang shook his head slightly in his heart. If His Majesty was really willing to clear up and investigate the old case of the Tang family, he could find out how many borers in the court, but this time he watched the opportunity missed!

If you don't blame the person who released the rumors for being false, Huang Tang also knew in his heart that His Majesty had always thought too much and was unwilling to be enemies of the aristocratic families to avoid overturning the footsteps of the previous dynasty, so he decided to stop.

Although this happened to Qin Feng’s wish, it was not as good as those of those of them who wished to be as clear as the court officials. It was a pity, it was a pity!

When all officials arrive, they enter the court after standing for many years. When they go in, they know that the civil and military are on the right side. As the saying goes, a gentleman is more important than the left side, and a military is more important than the right side; auspicious things are more important than the left side, and bad things are more important than the right side.

From this we can see that Dongyue now emphasizes literature and over military affairs, and it is obvious that he is in the court standing at a glance. Huang Tang returns to his position slowly, with the queue at the back of the left, with prominent official positions in front, and Song Luo and Bai Beitang are now leading all officials, which is very imposing.

From Huang Tang's perspective, Song Luo still looked calm, while Bai Beitang's eyebrows were filled with joy and pride.

Let's be proud. Huang Tang rushed into his heart with a breath of blood. The blood in the court remains unchanged. Where is the future of Dongyue?

It was supposed to focus on agriculture and strengthen national strength, but His Majesty spent most of his thoughts on fighting wits and courage with the clans. He had the intention of resisting, but there was no intention of change. All the previous ones were illusions. Huang Tang lowered his eyes and did not see the worried look that Zheng Xiaoxiong swept over.

The fifth rank and above of this dynasty can go to court. Therefore, all civil and military officials kneeled in a large area, and there was no need to ask for small matters. There were only a few major matters recently. The Minister of War took the lead in listing: "Your Majesty, I also ask the two countries to discuss the matter of trade tax."

The ministers were uproared. Since the talks started, in order to avoid leaking rumors, only the officials who participated in the talks knew the details and had never discussed them in public. They only knew that the talks were lengthy and not smooth, and they were going to be announced to the public today. This is to be a good idea.

The Minister of Revenue was outstanding later, and the matter reported was also ordinary: "I am not talented, and the talks have not reached an agreement on maritime trade so far, which has led to the talks being in turmoil. The envoys of Nanying always insisted on increasing taxes. I couldn't convince you and asked Your Majesty to atone for your sins."

It turns out that this is the case. Thinking of the goods that Dongyue sent to Nanying crazily, the ministers calculated it in their minds, and it was really a robbery!

"If taxes are increased, the current total production volume of Dongyue will inevitably lead to an increase in the export price of goods, and the increase in sales prices is inevitable. Even if it is exported to Nanying, it will be difficult to open up sales. In the long run, the loss will inevitably be Dongyue maritime trade."

The Minister of Revenue was about to sweat on his back. How did the two countries reach an agreement on the sea garrison and the sea areas? The Minister of War’s burden was lighter, and the remaining pressure was all else. How could he not be anxious?

"All my dear friends have heard of it. There is a good way to convince Nanying to give up the tax increase, just present it." Emperor Yuan glanced at the ministers, and when he touched his gaze, he lowered his head one by one, fearing that he would be pointed.

There was silence in Zichen Hall, Emperor Yuan's heart sank slightly. Looking at the dark heads below, he smiled bitterly. Can't Nuo's ministers come up with a good way?

"I have a plan, and I'll ask Your Majesty to report." Finally, a calm voice sounded. Emperor Yuan saw the people who came out of the list and asked him to report his name. Zheng Xiao looked over and couldn't help but feel a little suffocated. Why is it Huang Tang?

Huang Tang, who has always been unknown in the court, ate Xiongxin and leopard courage today, but he dared to get into such a bad temper?

Huang Tang said slowly: "I am Huang Tang, the new director of the Supervisory Department. Regarding maritime trade tax, on the surface, the country of Nanying has the upper hand. After all, Dongyue exports are much greater than imports, and Nanying is a big buyer for Dongyue."

"Now that the tax increases allow Dongyue goods to enter the country is tantamount to slaughtering cattle and sheep, and forcibly blackmailing Dongyue." Huang Tang said in anger, and his tone became much heavier: "As a minister of Dongyue, I feel that the other party is not ashamed, but if I want to counterattack, it is not the same tax increase."

The Minister of Revenue glanced at Huang Tang, feeling a little unhappy, just because he had proposed the same method of countering the tax increase in Nanying, but it just didn't work. Now that he heard Huang Tang say this, he felt like he was stepping on him.

In fact, if you think deeply, you will know that Huang Tang did not participate in the talks. How could you know this detail? The discomfort of the Minister of Revenue comes from himself, and you are just taking your anger on Huang Tang now.

Huang Tang knew nothing about this. Seeing that Emperor Yuan was quite interested and did not stop him, he continued: "The import and export trade between the two countries is not equal, and the export of Dongyue is greater than that of imports. Using the same tax on Nanying cannot offset the losses of Dongyue."

"However, the huge number of products produced in Dongyue is enough to show one thing-Nanying's demand for Dongyue's products is a fact that they have to admit. I also like to study geography in my spare time. The land area of ​​Nanying is small, only in the southwest of Dongyue."

"There is a large population in Nanying, which is because of its small arable land area, but its population is large. Among them, crop imports have become the main import type of Nanying. Food is the most important thing for people. What if they lack food?"

When Huang Tang's words came out, it seemed like the court igniting. Zheng Xiao was both surprised and happy. Song Luo couldn't help but be rude and turned around and looked at Huang Tang, who was not astonishingly beautiful. He had no impression of this Huang before, but the man said something astonishingly!

Almost everyone focused on how to persuade the envoy to give up tax increases. Only this person thought of finding a breakthrough point from the types of goods exported. What is food, food and clothing are essential for daily life, and food is the foundation of survival!
