"However, in the past fifteen years, with the development of copper mines, iron mines and gold mines, the annual income of the Changsun Mansion has increased by more than ten times!"

"In other words, the annual income of the Changsun Mansion is about 100,000 gold. However, because Zhao Guogong is afraid that the emperor will deprive him of his mineral industry, he still pays 10,000 gold in taxes every year to confuse the emperor!"

"This is the treasonous crime of deceiving the emperor! It should be executed, so Zhao Guogong, you still don't admit it?"

After Li Chengfeng finished speaking, Changsun Wuji's hands were shaking.

He knew that he had indeed made a lot of money over the years.

Especially that gold mine, which produces more than tens of thousands of gold every year.

But who in the world doesn't like money? So Changsun Wuji concealed this matter and only paid 10,000 gold a year in taxes to confuse the emperor, making him think that his iron ore and gold mines were just abandoned mines.

Changsun Wuji wiped the sweat from his forehead, feeling a little dazed.

The annual income of the eldest grandson's mansion was actually known by the Eighth Prince?

This must be what the Supreme Emperor Li Yuan told himself.

Moreover, the emperor must have his reasons for cracking down on tax evasion officials this time.

If you don't obey, it is very likely that you will be killed?

Then, Changsun Wuji suddenly knelt down, kowtowed heavily to Li Chengfeng three times, and said, "The old minister, Changsun Wuji, pleaded guilty, and invite the Eighth Prince to punish the veteran!"

"Ding, surprise from Wei Zheng, naughty value +50!"

Seeing that the eldest grandson Wuji pleaded guilty and even kowtowed to the Eighth Prince?

Wei Zheng couldn't help being startled.

Changsun Wuji is the head of the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion, and he can be said to be the second person in power besides the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty.

Even he, did he admit to the Eighth Prince?

Li Chengfeng smiled and said: "Isn't it better to admit your mistakes early? If you know your mistakes, you should correct them. There is nothing good about it!"

"I did the math. Your tax evasion over the past ten years has reached 120,000 gold! When will you make it up?"

"Reporting to the Eighth Prince, the old minister will make it up for you! The old minister will immediately send his servants to repay all the gold owed to the Eighth Prince and the Emperor!"

"Okay, then I will send it later!"

"It's done, call it a day!"

After finishing the last eldest grandson Wuji, Lin Haochuan took Wei Zheng and left the eldest grandson's mansion together.

However, at this moment, Changsun Wuji suddenly stopped Li Chengfeng, clasped his fists in both hands, bowed and said: "The eighth prince, old minister, I have another merciless request!"

"Please say!"

Li Chengfeng narrowed his eyes slightly.

I saw beads of sweat beading from Changsun Wuji's forehead, and said: "Old minister, I am willing to give up two of the three iron mines in Changsun's mansion, and one gold mine, to the Tang Dynasty and to the emperor." !"

"Oh? Is it so generous? Okay, then I'll go back and talk to my father, just say, Zhao Guogong not only made up for the tax evasion, but also willingly donated two iron mines and a gold mine, okay?"

"Yes, the old minister thanked the Eighth Prince!"

After Li Chengfeng left, Changsun Wuji wiped off the sweat from his forehead. His whole body seemed to be exhausted, and he even trembled a little when he walked.

At this moment, Changsun Chong suddenly came in front of Changsun Wuji and said, "Father, haven't you already paid the tax? Why do you want to give up two iron mines and a gold mine to the Eighth Prince and the others? "

"Hmph, bastard! I don't do that, do you think the emperor is a vegetarian?"

Changsun Wuji took a deep breath and said, "Chong'er, don't think that the emperor sent the eight princes to collect taxes this time, but in fact, the emperor is also secretly observing how much the annual income of our ministers is! And we The annual income of the Changsun Mansion can be said to be the highest among the courtiers of the Tang Dynasty! If we still occupy so many minerals, sooner or later the emperor will take action against us?"

"But father, those are two iron mines!" the eldest grandson said anxiously.

Changsun Wuji waved his sleeves and shouted: "Hmph, not to mention the two iron mines, if the emperor steps in, it is very likely that all the mines will be taken back!"

Changsun Wuji looked up at the sky, clasped his fists with both hands, and said, "Your Majesty, that's because the old man has been with him for many years, and he is also the head of the state. There is hard work without credit! That's why the Majesty didn't come forward in person to make trouble with our Changsun's mansion." Flip! If after my death, or after my abdication, or when the new emperor ascends the throne, our Changsun's Mansion still occupies so much money, sooner or later it will be wiped out!"

"Chong'er, you have to know one thing. Companion to the emperor is like companion to the tiger! The world is so big, the imperial power is the highest! In the future, whoever you **** off, don't go to **** off the emperor, do you understand?"

"Yes, my son has been taught!"

…

"Haha, get back 120,000 gold in taxes, and get back two iron mines and a gold mine in an instant!"

"It seems that I have to ask my father to send me an iron mine!"

Li Chengfeng happily jumped up and down on the road.

Wei Zheng followed behind Li Chengfeng with a big head.

"Eighth Prince, run slowly, don't fall!"

"Understood! By the way, Zheng Guogong, when you go back, remember to ask my father to come to the Zhenwang Mansion to get the money, just say, I have already returned all the taxes owed by all the ministers!"

"Okay Eighth Prince~lightnovelpub.net~ I understand what to do!"

"Well, then I'll go back to the Prince Zhen's mansion first, bye!"

"Okay! Bye, bye?"

Wei Zheng was dumbfounded.

Bye-Bye? What does bye bye mean?

After returning to the Prince Zhen's Mansion again, Li Chengfeng's mood became much brighter.

When Wei Zheng went back to Li Shimin and told him about the Eighth Prince's collection of taxes at the Changsun's Mansion, Li Shimin was also very surprised.

Unexpectedly, Li Chengfeng really recovered the tax owed by the eldest grandson's family? Not only that, but he actually asked Changsun Wuji to take the initiative to give away the two iron mines and the most valuable gold mine in his hand?

Great, really great!

"Zheng Guogong, I would like to ask you, how did the Eighth Prince make the eldest grandson Wuji willingly spit out the money in his own pocket?"

Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng with a smile on his face.

Wei Zheng touched the back of his head and said, "This..."

"But it's okay to say, what else can you and I have to say?"

"Okay emperor, the old minister just said it! Yes, it is the eighth prince, who took out a book called "The Wicked Things Changsun Wuji Did in Those Years"! Then he started to read, read and read, Changsun Wuji Then I took the initiative to kneel down and kowtow to admit my mistake!"

"What? So that's what happened?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin finally figured it out.

It turned out to be Li Chengfeng's signed death notebook?

As long as Li Chengfeng took out that little book and read it out, I am afraid that there would be no one in the court who would not be afraid.

Even Li Shimin panicked in his heart.

Because in Li Chengfeng's hand, there is a small book called "The Wicked Things Li Shimin Did in Those Years"!
