"Yawning!"
"Alright, if you have something to report, then dismiss the court!”
Ying Ziye yawned and prepared to hastily end the morning court session so that he could go back and catch up on his sleep.
"This official will take his leave!"
"We will take our leave!"
The civil and military officials bowed to the Crown Prince and the First Emperor and left the court.
If Ying Zheng were to preside over the morning court, they would certainly speak freely.
However, this living King of Hell was presiding over the morning court, so they could not wait to leave!
Therefore, even if there was something he wanted to report, he did not dare to say it. If he angered this fiend, the lives of his entire family would be gone!
"It's over so quickly?"
Looking at the backs of the ministers as they left, Ying Zheng felt a little unsatisfied.
In the past, there were many things to discuss in the morning court, and the officials had to express their opinions. No matter what, it would take two hours.
Under normal circumstances, the morning court session would last for four hours!
However, his son only managed to preside over the morning court for the time it took to brew a cup of tea.
Wasn't this speed too fast?
"Yes, I am!"
"Your son thinks that as long as I deal with the matters that need to be dealt with, I can dismiss the court.”
"Also, your son feels that there's no point in attending morning court.”
"If you have time for morning court, why don't you let the ministers do more work!”
Ying Ziye yawned and gave a suggestion to his father!
He had to get up at three or four o'clock every day. How could he not stand it if it was too long?
"Yes!"
"That makes sense!"
"How about this? We'll discuss this matter later!”
Ying Zheng nodded slightly, seemingly quite interested in his suggestion.
"Then…can your son not come to the morning court tomorrow?”
Ying Ziye asked tentatively.
Now that the tax reform decree had been successfully implemented, he only needed to supervise the officials.
There was no need to get up before dawn every day to attend the morning court.
"Alright then!"
"Although court affairs are important, we can't overwork ourselves!”
"After you go back, have a good rest!”
Seeing him yawning non-stop, Ying Zheng thought that he had been too tired for the past two days.
Therefore, she didn't think much about it and agreed to his request.
After all, he had raised more than 20 million gold taels in two days, and he still had to command the ministers. Needless to say, he had worked hard!
"Thank you, Imperial Father!"
Ying Ziye felt a warmth in his heart and thanked him.
This cheapskate father of his still cared about him, and he did not seem to be faking it.
It seemed that he had not helped him in vain!
"Yes! Go back and rest!"
"Your son will take his leave!"
……
"I believe you already know that the Ninth Young Master has been appointed as the Crown Prince!”
In a warm room in the Drunken Fragrance Restaurant, Violet Lady swept her gaze across everyone and said.
This morning, she called all the core members of the Drunken Fragrance Brothel to her own warm pavilion and held another meeting.
Too many things had happened yesterday!
The entire Xianyang City was shaken, and the sky had completely changed!
"I told you that being loyal to the Ninth Young Master is the right choice!”
"How is it now?"
"After killing Zhao Gao, not only was the Ninth Young Master not punished, but he was also appointed as the Crown Prince by Emperor Shi Huang!”
"I don't remember you saying that yesterday.”
"You wretched girl, if you don't speak, no one will think you're mute.”
"Stop fooling around. If this Ninth Young Master becomes the Crown Prince, will our Drunken Fragrance Restaurant also soar in the future?”
"Is there a need to ask? In the future, when the Crown Prince inherits the throne, maybe Sister Zi will be conferred the title of a state preceptor or something. At the very least, it shouldn't be difficult for her to be conferred the title of a concubine, hehe…!”
"Sister Zi, if you become a concubine, remember to help us. We also want to marry the Ninth Prince!”
"Stop dreaming. The Ninth Young Master is handsome and extraordinary. Why would he like you?”
"What about me?"
"Other than not having a good figure like Sister Zi, I'm not bad in other aspects, okay?”
"By the way, what kind of woman do you think Nine Hall His Highness likes?”
"Is she the obedient and cute type? Or the bold and unrestrained type?"
"Alright, alright, stop talking nonsense!”
As soon as Purple Dress finished speaking, the girls started chattering and joking. She didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Although the Ninth Young Master is good, if you hear what happens next, you probably won't dare to marry him again!”
Purple Dress glared at her sisters and said unhappily.
"What's so scary?"
"Could it be that the Ninth Young Master is…incapable in that aspect?”
"I guess the Ninth Young Master is a woman. He is a woman dressed as a man. Otherwise, how could he be so handsome?”
"She's even more beautiful than us women!"
The girls started joking again.
"According to reliable sources, during yesterday morning's court session, the Ninth Prince spot-checked the progress of the tax reform and named ten ministers.”
"These ten ministers are all shirking their responsibilities and doing nothing about the taxation and land distribution.”
"In a fit of anger, the Ninth Hall His Highness ordered his entire clan to be executed!”
"The residences of ten ministers were completely massacred, and not a single person was left alive!”
"Kill ten of them!"
"Not only that, Ninth Hall His Highness plans to kill ten ministers every day!”
"Every morning, the court will conduct a spot check on the progress of the tax reform. If there are any officials who do not do their job well, their entire family will be executed!”
Purple Dress told her sisters the news she had received.
However, before she could finish speaking, the warm pavilion fell silent.
The girls looked at each other in shock.
They had never expected that the Ninth Young Master, who usually looked gentle and refined, would be so ruthless when he killed people.
"First, we issue a decree, then we send troops to surround the residences of the ministers in the court!”
"Finally, we'll exterminate their entire clan!"
"Our Ninth Highness is really good!”
Xiao Zhuang, who had been quiet and silent all this while, spoke expressionlessly.
"That's right. After killing ten ministers in the morning court yesterday, the remaining ministers in the court no longer dare to ignore the orders of the Ninth Prince. They only took one day to collect the taxes of Xianyang and the surrounding forty counties!”
"Not only that, but they also distributed the land of the aristocrats to the poor people!”
"His speed is unbelievable!”
"It is said that the civil and military officials didn't sleep last night and were busy until dawn before they deposited the taxes into the treasury.”
Purple Dress continued.
Then, he swept his gaze across the sisters with a playful expression." Do you still dare to marry such a Ninth Prince?”
