Du Yan opened a memo, which contained words of impeachment of Jingzhao Yin Li Chao. The charges were listed, with more than thirty items. Well, it was a little less than the one just now. The one just now listed more than 70 charges, and one more sensational, with more than 100 items.

If you only read these memorials, everyone would think that Li Chao was a very evil person.

However, since Du Yan was able to become the new censor of the Tang Dynasty and command the Censorate, it was not just because he gritted his teeth and did not say a word when he was captured by the emperor. He served in the Sui Dynasty, Wang Shichong and Li Tang, and Du Yan had a very rich resume in office.

When Yang Guang was under his command, Du Yan had already become the Chief Censor of the Censorate, and was the Assistant of the Censorate. In Wang Shichong's court, he was also appointed as the Minister of Personnel. In Li Tang, the military officers of the Tiance Prefecture joined the army, a bachelor of the Literature Museum, and a bachelor of Hanlin. Now, the King of Qin became the crown prince, and he also entered the Censorate, became the Censorate, and was also named Duke of Anji County.

Du Yan did dirty work in the Qin Palace, and now he came to the Censorate and was also responsible for impeachment. But he knew better that the prince asked him to come to the Eastern Palace not only to trust him, but also to manage the group of censors in the Censorate. He was definitely not to be led by this group of people, or even to impeach Li Wenyuan, whom the Censorate, whom the Censorate trusted the most.

If I listened to them, sent these memorials to the East Palace, and even followed the memorials to impeach Li Chao, it would be a ghost.

"Our Censorate is the supervisory body of the court, and all Censors also have the power to report the news. However, don't let the court give you the power to report the matter, and do whatever you want and over-exert. Do you believe in your own memorials?"

Du Yan threw the note aside, and the table was already full.

Sun Fujia, the chief censor, sat aside, and his face was not good-looking. He was the deputy chief of the Censorate. He was dismissed for impeachment of Li Yuan. Later, he filed a lawsuit for Li Chao, participated in the imperial examination, passed the Jinshi, and then became Li Chao's aide. Because he was an old person from the Qin Palace, he was also considered a reinstatement this time and was re-elected as the Chief Censor.

Sun Fujia knew Li Chao very well, and at the same time, he knew better about the censors in the censorate.

The Censorate is the chief official of the Censor and the Chief Censor as the deputy. There are a large group of Censors, including the Censors, the Censors in the Palace, and the Censors in the Supervisors.

The Censorate only has the right to report the news, but does not have the right to justice.

The censor has the right to report the news, but now all these censors impeach Li Chao and have listed so many charges, but this is no longer the duty of the censor.

He knew that the censor sometimes exaggerated to attract attention to what he reported.

But there is no such way to exaggerate.

Didn’t it just to borrow some food from the grain merchants in Chang’an? Under the writings of these censors, they almost became rebellious. How did they pass such a memorandum? They would not have signed it.

"If you think you can believe what you wrote, then you will send the memorandum on your own. We will not sign it, let alone agree."

Du Yan sat there, looking at the censors with contempt.

He knew very well that he had entered the Censorate and even became a Censor directly. These Censors were very dissatisfied, and some were dissatisfied. Some people impeached Li Chao, and so many big battles might not be aimed at Li Chao. Some people must have wanted to come for him.

He is a great censor. If he can't control the censors, then why should he be a censor? In the prince's mind, wouldn't he be incompetent? Can he sit in this position for a long time?

Someone impeached Li Chao, but Du Yan actually doesn't matter.

Anyway, he was a little jealous of Li San, and others would let him impeach him if he wanted to. But there must be a prerequisite that these people must be impeached with their permission and the intention of the prince.

"The court's right to report to everyone is not something you can use in this way. See what you wrote. You are the censors like this. You are the one who is the one who uses the power of supervision granted by the court? Take all the garbage back, roll it back and reflect on it, and then write such a memorial. Not only will you not sign, but you will also be the first to impeach you for dereliction of duty!"

Du Yan was furious and sprayed a group of censors with all their skin. He spitted on their faces, and no one dared to say a word.

Du Yan is a new high school or a direct boss.

Although Li Chao has a higher official position, he is not in the same system as them after all, but Du Yan is the boss. If he offended this immediate boss, he will definitely be sad in the future.

A group of censors retreated.

Du Yan snorted and said to Sun Fujia, "What do these bastards treat the Censorate as?"

Sun Fujia smiled, "Someone deliberately fanned the flames and wanted to keep the muddy waters."

"I know, these people are not convinced by us, especially as the censor."

Sun Fujia took out a note.

"I also wrote a memorial."

"You won't impeach Li Wenyuan too, right?" Du Yan asked with a smile.

"Of course not, but it has something to do with him. I want to impeach Li Yuan, Li Chonggao and his son. Their crimes are listed in detail here. I wonder if the dean is willing to sign a ensemble together?"

"Impeach Li Yuan again?"

"Aren't you afraid that others will say you will take revenge?"

Sun Fujia smiled. He wanted to avenge his personal revenge, but who made Li Yuan fall into his hands again? This time, if you don’t mess with Li Yuan and his son, it would be great if you don’t mention scholars. People have selfish desires. Sun Fujia was very miserable by Li Yuan last time, and of course he would get it back if he had the chance.

It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, but since he has the opportunity to avenge, he will certainly not let it go.

Li Chao is settled.

After reading the archives in Jingzhao Mansion, Li Chao was in a heavy mood.

The population of black households in Chang'an is much larger than he imagined, and the number of monks and Taoists alone is extremely amazing. According to the records of Jingzhao Prefecture, there are 81 Buddhist temples and 28 Nishi Temples in Chang'an, totaling 109. There are many Buddhist temples near Chang'an and on the Qinling Mountains. There are probably at least 150 Buddhist temples in Chang'an and nearby Buddhist temples. Even if one temple is calculated by 200 people, there will be at least 30,000 monks and nuns in the capital.

There are thirty Taoist temples in Chang'an City. One of them is a plan for fifty people, and there are about 5,000 Taoist women.

Of course, this is just the number of monks and Taoists. They also occupy a large amount of land and have many hidden tenants. The population of these black households and houses sent to the temples is at least ten times that of monks and Taoists. This means that there are 350,000 black households in the twenty-three counties in the capital.

In addition, the population of Chang'an City is nearly 300,000, of which more than half of the people rely on the food provided by the imperial court, reaching 150,000 or 100,000. It includes the royal family and palace personnel, the officials and officials of the Beijing government, and the permanent imperial guards, as well as the population who went to the capital to participate in the selection of officials and imperial examinations.

If you need one and a half stones per month, it will be eighteen stones a year. If you eat more than 100,000 yuan of official grain, you will need more than 2 million stones of grain.

The more than two million stones have to be paid by the court, that is, taxes and grains.

Of course, Guanzhong produced more than 2 million stones of grain, but Guanzhong also had more than one million people, and it had to supply the merchants of Guanzhong. Only the land rent paid by the people of Guanzhong was the food that the imperial court could obtain for the capital that more than 100,000 yuan of official food.

The arable land and grain household registration were the basis for the tax collection of the Tang Dynasty.

In contrast to Chang'an's huge consumer population, the production capacity of land in Guanzhong has declined, insufficient private land, reduced paddy fields, and reduced labor.

In the Tang Dynasty, not all land was collected for rent, just like not all people took classes.

The Tang Dynasty registered a population of 15 million, and the total number of students was more than 2.3 million.

The population of Gyeonggi has long exceeded one million, but there are very few people who receive the responsibilities, and even less people can collect taxes. A large amount of land is occupied by the royal family and bureaucrats, and many of the land are from the government soldiers. These lands are not paid without taxes.

Many of the remaining fields were occupied by those Buddhist temples and Taoist temples, and this was also not taxable.

The Guanzhong Plain is now small in land and has a large population, and the land is not so fertile, and even water conservancy is not sufficient.

The number of kings and princes increased greatly. These people either were actually nobles or bought a large amount of land, resulting in a decrease in the land of the people, a surplus of private families, and insufficient public families. Secondly, in the early Tang Dynasty, there were a large number of public lands, vocational land, and granted land, and of course these lands were not subject to rent and tax.

Especially after a large number of royal family owned the land, they began to build dams and mills, which greatly reduced the irrigation area of ​​water conservancy facilities in Guanzhong. During the Qin and Han Dynasties, the irrigation area of ​​Zhengbai Canal reached more than 40,000 hectares. Most powerful families in the Tang Dynasty set up water mills on both sides of the Jinghe Canal to make profits, reducing the water volume and reducing the irrigation area. In the past, Zhengbai Canal irrigated more than 40,000 hectares of fields, but now it is a wealthy monk and great merchants who compete to build irrigation, with only irrigation of about 10,000 hectares. The area of ​​water conservancy irrigation decreased, and the grain output naturally decreased greatly.

Another point is that the working population in Gyeonggi is decreasing.

The population decreased after the war.

In addition, a large number of hidden households escaped and were hiding under the powerful and temples, which greatly reduced the imperial court's class.

Those rich and numerous people also tried every means to avoid servitude, either as officials or as monks. Therefore, the more than 2 million students in the court are actually poor people and have no place to escape, so they are retained.

The country's imperial career was originally in the capital. But now the capital has become a place with a narrow land and a large number of people, but a partial but completely illegal food, and the court's taxes are even more serious.

The root of the problem is actually the nobles Li Chao and other nobles.

Just like Li Chao, who is in the twenty-three counties of the capital, owns tens of thousands of acres of land, but not counting the 100,000 mu of Li Yuanji. Just one bathing ditch is 20,000 mu. Apart from this, the fertile land is more than 3,000 mu.

He also owns thousands of acres of land in Longyou.

There are hundreds of slaves in the Li family now.

However, the Li family owns such a large industry but does not have to pay a grain of grain to the court for land production.

Bureaucrats and nobles, as well as landlords from aristocratic families, are sharing the world with the Li family.

After doing a few calculations, Li Chao threw the pen down.

For the sake of the interests of Li San's national court, it cannot harm Li San's personal family interests.
