Ye Yang has already roughly explained the future political system to Tang Jinyao and the others.
In other words, even if he is not in the palace in the future, if there are any major issues that they cannot solve alone, they can make decisions through voting.
Of course, the premise must not damage the foundation of the country, otherwise the Zhenguan Army can directly send troops to suppress it.
This move is actually a strategy of lifting and suppressing.
Even if you are given power, there are also ways to restrain your power so that you cannot do whatever you want.
Tang Jinyao and the others now have great respect for Ye Yang, so naturally they will not have any thoughts of rebellion.
But Ye Yang had to guard against this.
After all, under the influence of the general environment, people's hearts will gradually change.
It's like a poor person suddenly transformed into the richest man.
Do you think he will continue to uphold the virtue of frugality as before?
Only a fool would believe in this kind of virtue.
"Brother Yang, you are simply amazing."
Ye Wencheng's eyes flashed and he grinned with admiration:
"Such a novel policy system has never been used by any emperor across all the dynasties in Tianyu Continent."
"Wencheng, don't be rude!"
However, at this time, Tang Jinyao on the side suddenly had a straight face and said seriously: "The emperor has now ascended the throne and is the emperor of our Hualong Dynasty. It would be inappropriate to call him 'Brother Yang' as before."
Hearing this, Ye Wencheng was slightly startled. Faced with Tang Jinyao's accusation, he was not dissatisfied at all.
"In that case, let's call him Emperor Yang."
However, he and Ye Yang were so familiar that they couldn't help but joke.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a title."
Ye Yang smiled lightly and didn't care about it.
Besides, he has no intention of staying here and becoming emperor. He still has the thought of being able to go back to the earth in his previous life.
The way to seek it is undoubtedly to climb to the peak of martial arts and try to break the shackles of this world.
Because in Ye Yang's opinion, his soul can travel through time. If scientific theoretical analysis is used, it shows that there must be some kind of space channel similar to the black hole in the universe.
To find a breakthrough, you must have extremely strong martial arts skills.
Otherwise, it will be like now, completely helpless and powerless.
As for why he insists on returning to Earth, Ye Yang actually can't explain it.
Perhaps his roots have grown on the earth, and no matter where his soul goes, he still has a strong feeling of homesickness.
"Your Majesty, there is an emergency report from the imperial guards. Can you please send him to the palace?"
At this time, a Longmen warrior walked in and said respectfully.
"Can."
Following Ye Yang's promise, the imperial guard who had hurried from the imperial gate immediately walked into the hall.
"Your Majesty, the envoy from Qingyang Sect is here."
The guards were panting, and it could be seen that they were running with all their strength without stopping along the way.
Qingyang Sect?
Hearing this, Ye Yang asked curiously without knowing why: "Why are people from such a sect here?"
Tang Jinyao's expression changed slightly, and he obviously knew the hidden truth, and quickly explained the reason to Ye Yang.
"It turned out to be a protection fee collector."
After listening to Tang Jinyao's explanation, Ye Yang finally understood the intention of this so-called Qingyang Sect's visit this time.
"Qingyang Sect is a third-grade sect and has nine attached dynasties."
Tang Jinyao continued: "When the Chu Yan Dynasty was founded, it was only because of the protection of the Qingyang Sect that it was able to truly establish a stable national foundation."
He seemed to have become accustomed to this situation, and the expression on his face did not show any reaction.
Ye Yang asked aloud: "How much supplies did the previous Chu Yan Dynasty need to pay? How often did they pay tribute?"
He knew that Tang Jinyao was now the Minister of Household Affairs and was in charge of the financial affairs of the dynasty. He should have known about this aspect.
After Tang Jinyao pondered for a while, he said: "Once a year, the tribute materials are mainly yuan crystal stones, and they also come with a lot of rune materials."
"The total cost is approximately 40% of the national treasury's annual revenue."
Um?
Four percent?!
When he heard this amount, no matter how calm Ye Yang looked, he almost couldn't sit still at this moment.
40% of the national treasury revenue, what is the concept!
If it were truly converted, the supplies obtained by the Qingyang Sect would definitely be much more nutritious than those of the Dynasty.
After all, the wealth in the treasury is not just left unused. During this period, officials will also be provided with salaries, various military expenses, and disaster relief.
However, as for Qingyang Sect, the 40% taken away is a pure profit!
"Although the sect's martial arts world has express provisions that sect forces are not allowed to directly kill dynasties in the secular world, they can launch attacks by other dynasty forces."
Seemingly sensing Ye Yang's reaction, Tang Jinyao deliberately reminded him and said in a low voice: "If our Hualong Dynasty refuses to continue paying tribute, then the other eight dynasties under the Qingyang Sect will definitely attack together."
Ye Yang smiled calmly, "Don't be nervous, I have my own sense of proportion."
Although he was very repulsive and disgusted with such a huge tribute in his heart, with the background of the current dynasty, not to mention against the Qingyang Sect, even the group attacks of the eight dynasties were difficult to withstand.
Therefore, we can only choose to resolve this matter rationally for the time being, so as to gain more time for the obscene development.
"Your Majesty is wise."
Hearing what Ye Yang said, Tang Jinyao breathed a sigh of relief.
If you really fight against the Qingyang Sect, it will be like hitting an egg against a stone.
"Call the Qingyang Sect envoy to come in."
Ye Yang turned his eyes to the imperial guard and ordered.
However, the imperial guard did not leave immediately, and said tremblingly: "The Qingyang Sect envoy is in the square at the main entrance of the palace and said that he wants the emperor to go out and greet him in person."
Hearing this, Tang Jinyao and others couldn't help but darken their faces.
"What a big arrogance! He actually wants us, Emperor Yang, to go out to pick him up. What the hell!"
Ye Wencheng suddenly became unhappy and his words were quite angry.
The Qingyang Sect envoy sounds like a sect envoy, but in fact it is just a dog responsible for running errands.
But a dog messenger of this level comes here and wants to start such a big battle. How can he not make people angry?!
"Your Majesty, let me take him to the palace on your behalf."
In order to avoid conflicts, Tang Jinyao voluntarily sacrificed his dignity and compromised.
"Need not!"
However, just when he was about to turn around, Ye Yang suddenly gave a cold shout.
"If he wants to get tribute, he has to go to the palace to meet me in person, otherwise he won't even get a cent!"
Ye Yang's cold voice was decisive.
In this matter, he acted very strongly and did not give in at all.
I can give you protection money, but if you want to ride on my head and dominate me, that's another matter!
"As you command!"
Seeing Ye Yang's strong majesty, the imperial guards were startled and immediately turned and left.
Tang Jinyao sighed lightly, but did not insist on doing it.
Although he was worried about offending the Qingyang Sect, in his mind, he was obviously more biased towards Ye Yang's actions at the moment.
At least they didn't lower their dignity and let outsiders trample on them!
