Chapter 435: Is there a need for the imperial court to exist
much harder for a king of the clan to be emperor than for a county king without real power to be emperor.""the great kings of Daqin today are all uncles of you and the crown prince. Their elites have...Chapter 435 is it necessary for the court to exist
the highest official he has ever seen in his life is Su Zhenting.
when I went to the donation office, I knelt at his door all night before I saw him once.
in addition, the highest rank of the officials he came into contact with was no more than three grades, and his Royal Highness, the prince, was at least 108000 miles away from him.
Zheng Baorong trembled in fear that he might say the wrong thing and lose his head.
his Royal Highness, the prince, petrified the curious-looking bookboy beside him.
the little bookboy never thought that anyone who welcomed a guest at noon today could be the crown prince.
after thinking about it carefully, he felt as if he had not been disrespectful to the crown prince, and the little bookboy breathed a deep sigh of relief.
No one cared about the inner changes of the schoolboy.
Li Chen looked at Zheng Baorong, who was kneeling trembling in front of him. Instead of paying attention to him for the first time, Li Chen turned to Mr. Mirror and said, "would it be all right to borrow your hall"
Mr. Mirror stroked his beard and said with a smile, "your Highness can do as you please."
nodded, Li Chen looked at Zheng Baorong and said faintly, "do you know why I asked Dongchang to bring you here"
Zheng Baorong immediately replied, "the micro minister knew that it was because his Highness's chariot and horse met an official messenger fighting with the fishermen on the way. Later, after being reported by the fishermen, the micro minister was suspected of increasing taxes, and all kinds of exorbitant taxes and miscellaneous taxes made the fishermen miserable. His Highness was kind, could not bear the suffering of the people, and was angry with the micro minister boldly, so he asked the east factory to bring him."
Li Chen said: "Yes, you should have figured it out along the way. In that case, what else do you have to say"
Zheng Baorong's fat face trembled and said sadly, "your Highness, it is true that Wei Chen increases taxes, but it is absolutely impossible for fishermen to survive, and he dares to guarantee with himself and the heads of the whole family that over the years, none of the taxes levied by Wei Haiwei has been used for self-interest. They are all used for the operation and development of Wei Haiwei. If there is a lie, he is willing to take the death penalty."

"arrogance!"
Li Chen gave a calm reprimand, which made Zheng Baorong tremble.
"the power of taxation has always been in the center of the imperial court, and it has never been left to the place, that is, the tax collected by the local city gates, and it has to be reported at various levels for examination and approval before it can be changed and implemented. Who gave you so much power to collect taxes without authorization. It is also plausible to say that it is for the construction of Weihaiwei, that is, for the purpose of building Weihaiwei, so that you can defy the king's law and seize the power of the center "
"just by adding taxes without authorization, I will be able to take off the heads of the whole family of Zheng Baorong!"
"if the Qin Empire had jurisdiction over the state capitals, governors, governors, and envoys, they all followed your example of Zheng Baorong, would it be possible for the court to be dissolved"
Zheng Baorong was so pale that he dared not say a word on his knees.
Li Chen's words were so heavy that even when he came here, he felt that he was free of corruption and all his income was spent on local development, so Zheng Baorong, who was more or less confident, realized that he had really caused a terrible disaster.
No matter what Zheng Baorong's starting point is, whether or not Wei Haiwei has been well managed by him, standing in Li Chen's position, this kind of behavior can never be tolerated to continue.
because it damages the prestige of the center of the court.
as Li Chen said, if the court let such behavior go unchecked, would other local officials follow suit
if they have moved the tax power, will the military power also want to move
what will the world be like then
