Chapter 157
"Only gentle methods can be used to collect taxes, so the time is much slower; this is also the philosophy of Confucianism!"
Chunyu Yue spoke unhurriedly, seemingly not taking the tax reform matter to heart.
Ying Ying Zi Ye looked at the two and slowly retracted his smile.
Originally, even if they didn't complete the task, they wouldn't be beheaded.
At most, they would be demoted, and at worst, they would be reduced to commoners.
But unfortunately, they dared to have obscure dealings with the remnants of the Six States.
This forced him to reconsider their punishment.
His assassination might have something to do with these two.
Since a sign has been found, it must be suppressed as soon as possible.
"Do you remember, the tax reform is for one month, and today is the deadline."
"Everyone has collected the taxes, but you two are acting in defiance; the crime is one degree heavier!"
"Since that is the case, then execute the whole family!"
Lin Zhichong, hearing this, was so scared that his legs went weak and he knelt down directly.
"Ninth Prince, I am wronged! Give me another chance; this subordinate will immediately go to collect taxes!"
Lin Zhichong kowtowed heavily, and the sound of his kowtowing echoed in the hall.
And Chunyu Yue was also stunned, and then he shouted loudly.
"Ninth Prince, you have no right to deal with this old man!"
"This old man is the teacher of Prince Prince Fu Su; even if the taxes have not been collected, the crime is not enough to die!"
"I want to see His Majesty and let His Majesty decide!"
The ministers of the court looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye in shock.
Even Prince Prince Fu Su's teacher is to be killed?
Wouldn't that be too cruel?
Prince Prince Fu Su stood to the side, originally because he was exhausted from counting money last night, and was drowsy.
Hearing the Ninth Brother's words, he woke up with a start and hurriedly walked out.
"Ninth Brother, this matter must not be done!"
"No matter what, he is Prince Fu Su's teacher."
"Shouldn't we inform Father Emperor to deal with it lightly?"
Prince Fu Su naturally did not want his teacher to be killed like this.
Therefore, he had to plead for mercy.
Although not completing the tax reform task should be punished, beheading was a bit heavy.
"Deal with it lightly?"
Ying Ying Zi Ye looked at Prince Fu Su and shook his head with a smile.
"Imperial Brother, you may not know the good deeds your teacher has done."
"This is already dealing with it lightly, and it is also for your sake."
"If you knew his actions, you probably wouldn't plead for him either."
The ministers looked at Chunyu Yue curiously.
What exactly did he do to make the Ninth Prince want to kill him?
Prince Fu Su also didn't understand.
"What did the teacher do?"
Ying Ying Zi Ye did not answer Prince Fu Su's words but looked at Wang Li. ===== CHAPTER 159 ===== Exposing the Doctor, Colluding in Secret
