"I, Xiang Ji, plead for the people. Even if I die today under the power of a foolish king like you, I will leave my name in history! I deserve to die!

And you Ying Zigao, the name of a faint king will be recorded in the history books, and it will be infamous for thousands of years! "

Xiang Ji said loudly with impassioned face!

"Bold!" Dongfang Bubai couldn't bear it any longer after hearing this!

With a cold drink, he jumped, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Xiang Ji!
Xiang Ji was taken aback and was about to draw out his sword!

Before I started, I felt light in my hand.

Taking a closer look, the saber was already in Dongfang Bubai's hands.

"Dare to talk to His Majesty like that, I will kill you!"

Dongfang Bubai shouted in a cold voice.Then he drew out his sword and was about to stab Xiang Ji down!

"Stop!" Ying Zigao immediately shouted.

Dongfang Bubai Liu frowned and stopped.

"Dongfang, step back!"

Ying Zigao scolded bluntly.

Dongfang Bubai felt aggrieved when he heard this, and looked at Ying Zigao unwillingly!
Ying Zigao's eyes immediately became serious.

Seeing Ying Zigao's serious eyes, Dongfang Bubai couldn't help but secretly sighed.

He had no choice but to hand the sword to Xiang Ji with both hands, and backed away.

Only then did Xiang Ji take over the saber and hung it on his waist, then he looked at Ying Zigao angrily and said, "Ying Zigao, what exactly do you want to do?"

"I have decided that the policy of reducing taxes and corvee for the common people will be implemented immediately!"

Ying Zigao said with a serious face: "This year's tax is exempted, and from next year, all kinds of taxes will be collected as a regular tax. No one can use any excuses to charge any more fees in any form!"

Hearing this, Xiang Yu couldn't help but his face tightened!
He really didn't expect that Ying Zigao would actually agree to this condition!

It is impossible for any king to readily agree to these conditions he proposed.

After all, every court needs taxes to support its operations!

A substantial tax reduction in a short period of time will definitely affect the court's finances and normal operation!
"Corvés, we must stop the collection immediately!"

Seeing Xiang Ji's expression of astonishment, Ying Zigao then said loudly: "From today onwards, Great Qin will permanently stop collecting any corvee from the common people!"

Hearing this, Xiang Ji was even more surprised!

Zhao Yun and Dongfang Bubai became even more anxious secretly.

Not only did Ying Zigao immediately reduce the tax rate to 50 per cent.Also stop all corvee collection!
Doesn't this mean that fiscal revenue will be greatly reduced, so that the court and government at all levels can still operate normally?

Stop confiscating labor, what about the construction of the Great Wall, straight roads, galloping roads, and the construction of the Mausoleum for the First Emperor?
In the future, if the government and the imperial court want to start new projects, what should they do?
"Ying Zigao, is what you said true?"

Xiang Ji still said in disbelief.

"I have already said it, I am the son of heaven with golden words!"

Ying Zigao said with a straight face!

"Then do you dare to issue an edict in front of me?"

Xiang Ji said hurriedly!
"What's the matter? I will issue an official edict right now!"

Ying Zigao said without hesitation.Immediately afterwards, he asked Xiang Ji seriously: "Xiang Ji, if I officially issue an edict and implement it, then what should you do?"

"Ying Zigao, if you officially issue the order and send people to various counties and counties immediately to implement it, I, Xiang Ji, will apologize to you!"

Xiang Ji still didn't believe that Ying Zi Gao could do what he said, and said with a serious face: "In order to express my apology, after making an apology, I, Xiang Ji, will retire to the mountains and forests, and never care about world affairs!"

"What you say is what you say?" Ying Zigao asked.

"It's hard to follow a gentleman's words!" Xiang Ji said with a straight face!

"Okay! It's refreshing enough, it's worthy of being a strong man in Jiangdong!"

Ying Zi said loudly.

As soon as he spoke, he gave an order and called the bachelor who was with him over.

"Give me a decree!" Ying Zigao ordered solemnly: "From next year, all kinds of tax burdens in Daqin will be unified into a regular tax, which will be collected at a tax rate of 50%! The common people collect any other fees!"

Hearing the knowledge that he carried with him, he couldn't help being surprised.

"Hurry up and write!" Ying Zigao said seriously!
The bachelor quickly agreed, and recorded Ying Zigao's words.

"From now on, Daqin will permanently stop collecting any corvee from the people!"

Ying Zigao then said loudly!

"Your Majesty, this..." the accompanying bachelor asked hesitantly.

"Did you hear what I said? Write it quickly!" Ying Zigao gave the bachelor a serious look.

"My minister obeys the decree!" The bachelor hurriedly agreed, and hastily drew up two decrees.

Ying Zi is tall.After carefully looking at the two decrees, he couldn't help but nodded, and then asked his followers to bring the emperor's jade seal, and stamped the imperial decree with a big seal!

Seeing that Ying Zigao actually stamped the big seal on these two edicts, Xiang Yu couldn't help but feel his heart pounding.

Ying Zigao used the great seal, and the imperial decree has legal effect, so it must be implemented immediately!
"Send imperial envoys to immediately send these two imperial edicts to all counties and counties across the country, and implement them immediately!"

Ying Zigao said with a straight face: "It must be implemented in place!"

"I understand!" The accompanying bachelor hurriedly agreed.

After dismissing the accompanying bachelor, Ying Zigao took a look at Xiang Ji.

Seeing Xiang Ji's shocked expression, Ying Zigao couldn't help but secretly smiled triumphantly.

Then he asked seriously, "Xiang Ji, do you think I'm still a fool?"

"Your Majesty, I am the Xiang Ji Menglang! I misunderstood you before."

Xiang Ji had no choice but to sigh helplessly, and said, "I sincerely apologize to Your Majesty for my previous words and deeds! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"Xiang Zhuangshi is indeed a gentleman, and he keeps his word! He is worthy of being the queen of the general, Jiangdong's strong man!"

Ying Zi laughed loudly.While talking, he picked up the wine glass and said seriously: "Xiang Zhuangshi, come, I will toast you!"

Forced to apologize to Ying Zigao, his enemy, he had to keep his promise to withdraw from the rivers and lakes and retreat into the mountains and forests.

Xiang Yu's mood at this time can be said to be extremely depressed.

I have no intention of staying any longer!
But looking at Ying Zigao's hearty smile, and Zhao Yun and Dongfang Bubai who had been looking at him beside him.

Maid servants around.

Xiang Ji had no choice but to maintain his demeanor as much as possible, picked up the wine glass, and drank it down in one gulp.

Immediately put down the wine glass, stood up, cupped his hands and saluted: "Thank you Your Majesty for your grand hospitality, I will take my leave!"

As she spoke, she turned and left without waiting for Ying Zigao to keep her.

Seeing Xiang Ji leaving just like that, both Dongfang Bubai and Zhao Yun couldn't help being secretly surprised.

Dongfang Bubai was even more worried and asked: "Your Majesty, will he really retire to the mountains and forests?"
