"Well done! These corrupt officials deserve to die!"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Oh wise ruler! Cousin, your spirit in heaven can rest in peace!”
……
The surrounding commoners praised Zhao Zheng's treatment.
Many people directly became Emperor Zhao Zheng's diehard fans!
This emperor was really too powerful. When it came to killing corrupt officials, he did not show any mercy at all. He had the style of a great ancestor!
In the crowd, there was someone who had been silently watching Zhao Zheng solve the case.
This person was the Taoist priest from before.
In fact, the Taoist priest did not leave.
At this moment, he had changed his clothes and hid in the crowd, wanting to see how Zhao Zheng would solve the case.
Seeing how popular Zhao Zheng was, the Daoist priest's expression was uncertain.
Suddenly.
The Daoist priest smiled.
"Interesting, truly wonderful!"
Throwing down this mindless sentence, the Taoist priest disappeared into the crowd and floated away.
Other than the Daoist priest, there were also many servants sent by other officials.
After all, it was impossible for the officials not to pay attention to the Emperor's actions.
When the matter here was almost over, the servants also left one after another, anxious to go back and report...
Finally, Zhao Zheng announced the punishment for Qi Jiguang. Cut off his original military status and join the Royal Guards!
Hearing the Emperor's " punishment ", Qi Jiguang was stunned!
How was this a punishment? It was clearly Gao Sheng!
The royal guards were the emperor's personal army and had the heavy responsibility of guarding the imperial city. In the entire military system, their status had always been the highest. Only elites could take up this position.
In the past, although Qi Jiguang was a lieutenant, in terms of treatment and status, he might not even be comparable to a small soldier in the Royal Guards.
"Qi Jiguang, thank the emperor for his kindness. I'm willing to sacrifice my life for the emperor!”
Looking at Qi Jiguang kneeling in front of him, Zhao Zheng used the Emperor's Eye without batting an eyelid.
[Target Loyalty: 95%]
Seeing this, Zhao Zheng immediately smiled in satisfaction!
"Ji Guang, get up quickly…You don't have to rush to go on a mission. I'll give you a period of leave. It won't be too late to go after you're done with your family matters.”
Actually…
Zhao Zheng still wanted to pursue the title of Qi Jiguang's mother, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that it was unnecessary.
Qi Jiguang hadn't made any contributions yet, so Zhao Zheng's courtesy towards him was already enough.
When Qi Jiguang made a contribution, he would consider giving his mother the title.
"Thank you for the emperor's grace!"
Looking at Qi Jiguang's touched expression, Zhao Zheng smiled and said to Feng Zhong,""Return to the palace!"
"Let's go!" Feng Zhong immediately shouted.”
Hence, the Imperial Guards and Imperial Guards who came with Zhao Zheng immediately moved.
When Zhao Zheng left, countless commoners knelt down to send him off, shouting,"My Emperor is wise!"
Some of the commoners were even discussing setting up a memorial tablet for Zhao Zheng…
……
It was already noon when he returned to the palace.
The imperial food was already prepared.
Zhao Zheng began to think as he ate lunch.
Today, on a whim, he shouted that he would never increase his taxes. He had shouted to his heart's content, and his harvest was also huge.
Not only did he gain the hearts of the people, but he also received a reward from the system!
However!
A new problem arose.
That was, without taxes in the future, what would the palace treasury rely on for income?
He couldn't possibly create an empty mountain, right?
In fact, as a transmigrator, Zhao Zheng naturally had many ideas to earn money.
However, in the current situation, some things should not be taken out too early.
After thinking for a moment, Zhao Zheng's eyes suddenly turned cold!
Since there were so many corrupt officials, then the first sum of start-up funds should be cut off from the corrupt officials first!
A plan slowly formed in Zhao Zheng's mind!
Just as Zhao Zheng was thinking, Feng Zhong suddenly came to report,"
"Emperor, there's news about the person you sent this old servant to Xiangyang!”
"Oh?"
Zhao Zheng's eyes lit up!
