Chapter III Article 1 Decree

Oriental Palace, in a large hall!

In three days, Wang Xiong had already learned what had happened in the Eastern Fiefdom during this time. Whether it is Wang Tiance's report or Wang Zhongquan's report, Wang Xiong has carefully combed it through.

At this moment, in the main hall, Wang Xiong was sitting on a golden dragon chair, and a group of important subordinates stood in front of him.

In the main hall, there were twenty-six people standing, all of whom were the most powerful group of officials in Zhendong City.

"Lord Wang, this is the case!" Wang Tiance's respectful report.

Wang Xiong's eyes narrowed slightly and stared at the twenty-six people. Twenty-two of them are all children of the Wang family. The rest include Wang Zhongquan and four people.

Wang Xiong was slightly silent. It's not that I can't see the children of the Wang family in power, after all, the children of the Wang family have the ability and can win Wang Xiong's trust. Mainly, there are too many children of the Wang family. Twenty-six people, twenty-two are all children of the Wang family? This is undesirable in any regime.

It's like the Great Qin court, there are many relatives of the Ying family, but most of them are excluded from the court. Why?

Because, the emperor has only one person, and he wants to use the Manchu Dynasty to govern the world. The emperor needed to have absolute control over the Manchu civil and military forces.

This kind of control is not to let the hundred officials be united, on the contrary, the emperor needs the hundred officials to be unified, so that they can check and balance each other, throw each other into the trap, and the emperor can deal with it in the middle, so that he can follow the law.

For example, some emperors know that a certain courtier is a corrupt official, but the emperor is protecting him, for what? Isn't it just to use corrupt officials to check and balance clean officials? It's not bad to be a clean official, but sometimes there is a conflict with the emperor's ideas.

The interests of the emperor and the interests of the officials are sometimes not the same.

Therefore, Wang Xiong hopes that there is not only one voice among his subordinates.

Not to mention unloading the mill and killing the donkey, but the most basic power technique.

However, the Dongfang Royal Mansion has just stabilized, and Wang Xiong also has to rely on the cooperation of the children of the Wang family. It's just that as a king, Wang Xiong has to guard against the scene of hundreds of officials forcing the palace. You can not deal with the children of the Wang family, but you can't let them sit too big.

"What do you mean, during this time, Captain Pang has made a big move in the Eastern Fiefdom?" Wang Xiong squinted at everyone.

"Yes, the remaining thirty-five cities, the control of my palace was weak, and some important official positions were replaced by Pang Taiwei, and during the period when the prince left, Pang Taiwei took all the financial and tax powers, and now, our people, in those cities, are like walking on thin ice!" Wang Tiance said bitterly.

"Yes, my lord, that Captain Pang is holding on to his power, and I heard that he is now beginning to infiltrate the defenders of various cities."

"Captain Pang himself has a certain right to appoint personnel, and he has seized the power of finance and taxation, and now he wants to snatch military power, once he completes it, it will be difficult to take back the thirty-five cities!"

…………………………

………………

……

A group of officials said anxiously.

"Lord Wang, do you want to go to the Emperor of the Book and ask the Emperor to remove Captain Pang?" Wang Tiance said anxiously.

"Yes, Lord Wang, go to the emperor!"

"Lord Wang, go to the emperor!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

……………………

………………

……

A group of Wang family disciples spoke one after another.

Wang Xiong looked at the children of the Wang family and made sure of one thing, above this court meeting, when the officials had only one voice, they really disliked it, and they seemed to be giving advice to Wang Xiong, but the voices of their ministers were the same, but there was a feeling of teaching Wang Xiong to do things.

Do things on your own and need you to teach?

"No need! It's just to deal with Captain Pang, and this king is not going to ask the emperor! Wang Xiong said lightly.

"Oh?" The faces of the officials were happy.

Everyone looked at Wang Xiong expectantly.

Wang Xiong had a lot of thoughts in his mind, his fingers lightly tapped on the desk in front of him, and everyone waited quietly.

"Taiwei Pang holds the power of finance and taxation, and uses Yulu to control hundreds of officials? Coerce and lure the defenders again? Wang Xiong showed a sneer.

"yes!" The crowd nodded.

"In this case, this king can cut off his finances and taxes with one step!" Wang Xiong said in a deep voice.

"Cut off the power of Captain Pang's finances and taxes? Lord, how can this be broken? Those tax officials are all Captain Pang's people! Wang Tiance said worriedly.

"Decree the thirty-six cities of the Eastern fiefdom, this king inherits the title of his father, and is recognized by the true god and the human emperor, as the new king of the East, from today on, the gift of the world, within one year, the Oriental fiefdom, thirty-six cities, all the people, tax exemption for one year!" Wang Xiong said lightly.

"Huh?" Everyone's faces changed.

"Tax exemption for a year? Lord, how do the major cities operate like this? An official worried.

"Didn't this king take away 200,000 spirit stones before leaving?" Wang Xiong said lightly.

"Yes, Lord Wang, those 200,000 spirit stones are all the money that can be obtained from the Dongfang Palace's mansion and the thirty-six cities, and the 200,000 spirit stones are not enough for a year's consumption!" Wang Tiance said worriedly.

"Now, and it has become 10 million spirit stones, is it enough to consume the cities in a year?" Wang Xiong said with a smile.

"Ten million spirit stones?" The faces of the people changed, and then they showed ecstasy and doubt.

"This king gambled in the god capital, and 200,000 spirit stones became 10 million spirit stones!" Wang Xiong explained.

"Really? That's great, hahahaha, that's really good, Captain Pang is going to be miserable this time! An official excitedly said.

"Yes, the power of finance and taxation, in this way, I will cut off the food for Captain Pang!"

"Lord Wang, high! In this way, there is no need to contact with Pang Taiwei's people, as long as this policy is promulgated, the people will definitely respond, and if you don't pay taxes, who doesn't want to? ”

"The prince has put the people and Pang Taiwei on the opposite side, and for a moment Pang Taiwei has nothing to do!"

"Yes, those officials who collect taxes, even if they are arrogant, it is useless, the prince is the rightful master of the Eastern fiefdom, and the people will definitely ignore them if they occupy morality!"

"Killing two birds with one stone, not only cut off Captain Pang's financial resources, but also gave Captain Pang no money to lure the defenders. The prince's tens of millions of spirit stones are the key to the reshuffle of the fiefdom officialdom, the officials who listen to my palace's words have a lot to take, and the officials who listen to Pang Taiwei's words let them find Pang Taiwei to go. Captain Pang's subordinates don't have a fortune, and they will definitely force Captain Pang. Pang Taiwei has no money to use, and his rights must have plummeted. Wang Tiance said excitedly.

"No, killing three birds with one stone. The prince once had a good governance, and the people were naturally grateful to the prince, and if they lost their faith in the palace in four years, they could all come back in one day. The prestige of the Oriental Mansion can be erected in an instant! The influence of the Oriental Mansion can be enhanced countless times in an instant! Wang Zhongquan said with a smile.

Wang Xiong smiled slightly, not three birds with one stone, but four birds with one stone, in this way, the people's feelings will turn into wisps of luck, luck can make the eyes of heaven more powerful, and their power will be greater.

"Lord Wang, anyway, we have money now, or do we want to allow the people to ask the government for the tax paid this year? In this way, all the money in Captain Pang's hands can be emptied in an instant, so that he will immediately run out of money! Wang Tiance said with a smile.

"Yes, there is still some surplus money in the coffers of various cities, and this surplus money is also emptied, so that Captain Pang can't have a chance to breathe!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

"The minister seconded the proposal!"

……………………

………………

……

A group of officials played one after another, excited.

Wang Xiong looked at the unanimous tone of the group of officials, and felt a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't show it, he just smiled slightly and shook his head: "No need, it's too late, you have to deal with Captain Pang step by step, don't force him to jump off the wall in a hurry!" ”

"Huh? But! ”

"Yes, Lord Wang!"

The group officials roared worriedly, and they all nodded.

"Lord Wang, you just said that this is the first step? Don't......! Wang Tiance's eyes lit up.

"Dealing with Captain Pang is not an overnight thing, there is a first step, naturally there is a second step, let's implement this first step first!" Wang Xiong said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Everyone responded.

Wang Xiong gave an order, and the children of the Wang family moved quickly, and the first decree of the King of the East quickly spread towards the thirty-six cities at an extremely terrifying speed.

----------

East Heart City. Castle Lord's Mansion. A large hall.

Captain Pang sat on the main seat, and in front of him sat a group of Pang Taiwei's henchmen and officials.

"Wang Xiong'er is back. I heard that the children of the Wang family have been gearing up to deal with the Taiwei during this time! An official laughed.

"Heh, a group of ignorant juniors, how can they be the opponents of the captain!" Another official laughed.

"However, Wang Xiong has been canonized by the Emperor of the People, and he is already the rightful King of the East, in case he reaches the decree, he will deal with us ......!" The official worried.

"Hahaha, the king of the East, a stinky boy who has not dried up, giving a decree? What is the use of a decree? We don't respect it, right? ”

"Yes, if you give a decree, all our cities will unite and disrespect the decree, then the words of the king of the east are farting, who will listen? If you don't listen once, you don't listen twice, and in the future, who will take the words of the king of the east seriously? Let him entertain himself in Zhendong City! ”

"Hahaha!"

The surrounding officials burst into laughter. All the officials are Pang Taiwei's henchmen, and they hold the power of the Eastern Fiefdom, and they don't respect Wang Xiong's orders, so Wang Xiong is not a fart, and they are all laughing arrogantly.

Captain Pang was drinking tea, and he was also smiling. Yes, political struggle, are you Wang Xiong my opponent? Decree? Any decree that is not carried out is farting.

"Report!" One of the guards quickly rushed into the main hall.

"Captain Qi, the Eastern Palace's first decree has been issued, and now it has been conveyed to the cities of the Eastern Fiefdom!" The guard grabbed a scroll and stepped forward.

"Hahaha, the decree is coming? What jokes do I read written? The officials burst out laughing.

Isn't it a joke that a decree that cannot be implemented is promulgated?

"Wang Xiong promulgated the first decree, the thirty-six cities of the Eastern Fiefdom are exempt from tax for one year, and the people do not need to pay taxes!" The guard handed the scroll to Captain Pang.

The moment Captain Pang took the scroll, his face froze.

"What?" The faces of all the officials changed.

Captain Pang also quickly unfolded the scroll, and his face also changed greatly.

Tax exemption for a year? Do you want the government to supervise the implementation? No, you don't. When the people saw the decree, they spontaneously implemented it, and they also tried their best to implement it, and who wouldn't want to pick it up for nothing? Who doesn't?

In an instant, Captain Pang seemed to see all the people in the Eastern Fiefdom, and suddenly stood on the opposite side of him. One by one, they stood on Wang Xiong's side.

"Impossible, impossible, Wang Xiong, he's crazy?" Captain Pang's face changed wildly.

The decree has not yet been implemented, and everyone can feel that it is unimpeded. How can this be blocked, how can this be made fun of?

"I understand, in that gamble in Shendu, Wang Xiong won 10 million spirit stones!" An official's face changed.

"What?"

"This, this is the way to cut off our finances and taxes!"

Cutting off people's financial routes, such as killing their parents, all officials instantly became angry.

"Wang Xiong, you are looking for death!" Captain Pang's eyes widened.

"Boom!"

The coffee table in front of him was instantly shattered by Captain Pang's angry palm.
