Chapter 83

His butt is even crooked; what kind of person can he possibly be?

Isn't it better to be a beast?

And next, Ying Su will order Huang Chao to implement this matter nationwide!

Let him take Yu Yu Huatian and the three thousand garrison troops to collect taxes across the entire country!

As for the method, just follow what was done in Xianyang City!

Those who pay taxes, stay!

Those who do not pay taxes! Kill!

Whether you are a descendant of Bai Qi or Shang Yang, whether you are a descendant of Zhang Yi or Fan Ju!

As long as you do not pay taxes, kill them all!

As for Wang Jian?

This old fox Wang Jian is still very obedient!

Before Huang Chao even reached the Huangchaojin Sect's gate, he went up to welcome him himself.

Not only did he pull him into the mansion and treat him in every way, but he also handed over all the grain harvested this year!

Yes!

Not fifty percent!

But all of it handed over!

Moreover, he also said some very beautiful words!

"Attacking the Xiongnu is something every person in our Great Qin should do; it is just that I am old. If I were a few years younger, I would want to lead the expedition myself!"

With this demeanor, even Ying Su could not help but exclaim "old fox!"

057. Nobles Paying Taxes? Seeing Xiang Yu: A Good Time to Rebel!

The Interior Minister's Office!

Xiao He was truly exhausted today.

After all, that was a full 1.2 million shi of grain to be stored in the granary!

And looking at the fully replenished state treasury, Xiao He, while excited, could not help but feel some worry.

The taxes have been collected, but will the nobles really pay them willingly?

Nobles! They are not common people; they are not the type to suffer a loss and remain silent.

Will they really not cause trouble?

Xiao He is worrying!

However, this worry became reality just two days later!

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty!"

In the study, Ying Su was reviewing memorials to the throne from various regions.

Just then, Yu Yu Huatian rushed in in a panic!

"What is the matter?"

Ying Su asked a question!

Cold sweat streamed down Yu Yu Huatian's head: "The First Emperor... the First Emperor has left the palace!"

"Left the palace?"

As soon as the words were spoken, Ying Su's eyebrows raised slightly.

But even so, it terrified Yu Yu Huatian half to death!

"I... I am incompetent. I clearly arranged for one hundred garrison troops to watch the First Emperor day and night, yet he still managed to escape!"

"He left the palace without anyone noticing, and not a single person under my command was able to detect it beforehand!"

"I... I deserve to die!"

He bowed heavily to Ying Su!

And Ying Su helped him up, smiling and saying: "It is fine, it is fine!"

While speaking, he brushed the dust off Yu Yu Huatian's knees and said to Yu Yu Huatian:

"We can punish those garrison troops on guard, but the punishment must not be too severe!"

"After all, he is the First Emperor; his power is deeply rooted!"

"And your men have only been formed for less than two months!"

"Failing to keep an eye on him is normal!"

Ying Su said this with a smile!

And this sentence moved Yu Yu Huatian to tears; he bowed heavily to Ying Su: "Your subject... is incompetent!"

He spoke out calling.

And Ying Su sent him away.

At this moment, his eyes gazed into the distance.

At this very moment, his gaze was profound, his expression solemn, and he did not know what he was thinking!

Outside the suburbs of Xianyang City.

Inside a large mansion!

Here, the guards visible on the surface alone numbered nearly five hundred!

And the guards hidden in the shadows were even more numerous, beyond counting!

And the two figures responsible for guarding the main gate were characters familiar to all fans of Qin's Moon!

Xuan Jian!

Cover the Sun!

Beyond that, countless experts are stationed within a fifty-li radius of the great mansion!

Within a fifty-li radius!

Let alone a person entering.

Even a fly cannot fly in.

And within the courtyard!

Did Ying Zheng leave the palace?

Yes!

He left the palace!

As for rebellion, he still cannot make up his mind!

The reason he left Outside Xianyanggong was mainly to seek quiet!

Just the day before yesterday, countless people knelt outside the garden, begging to see him!

Especially the descendants of Bai Qi from years past!

An old steward, holding a child of no more than five or six years, knelt on the ground weeping.

Weeping and crying out, the blood of the Great Qin's Wuan Marquis was shed in vain.

The lives of countless Great Qin soldiers were lost in vain!

They fought desperately so that their descendants could enjoy prosperity.

But now, they have not enjoyed prosperity; instead, they have brought death upon themselves!

Others cried out that their ancestors once sold their family assets to support the Qin state in unifying the world!

Yet now, after the world was unified, they have brought death upon themselves!

Still others kowtowed until they wept blood, declaring the injustice!

Upon learning all this, Ying Zheng felt his heart wrung as if by a knife.

In that moment, he very much wanted to meet these descendants of the Great Qin's heroes who unified the world.

But... time and again he wished to meet them, yet time and again he stopped short!

No face to show!

Truly, no face to show!

Helpless, he could only leave Outside Xianyanggong!

And after leaving the palace, he had Zhao Gao gather all reports in Xianyang City concerning Facing Ying Su's tax collection!

In just one day, they were all collected!
