Chapter 15: Harvesting the hearts and minds of the people
"Cousin, Concubine Rong is the third sister of my third aunt..."
"You're my cousin..."
"Your Highness, Your Highness, you can't do this..."
Wang Weining was dumbfounded, and the next moment he began to beg hysterically and kowtowed.
How can there be a reason for relatives to tie up relatives?
The rest of the royal relatives are much more excessive than themselves.
Robbing people's daughters, forcibly grabbing, and filling their pockets are all trivial.
The annexation of land and the abuse of power are also well-known things.
I was just managing the Yamen of Fang City, and I was tied up by my cousin.
Isn't that a great injustice?
"Shut up!" Guo Tianyi scolded, "You tell this king, what is the commercial tax rate of Dafeng?" ”
"Yes..."
"Yes..."
"It's one percent."
Wang Weining knelt on the ground, not daring to raise his head, his voice trembling.
Guo Tianyi snorted, looked at the vendor who had just been detained, and said, "This big brother, how much tax did you say this guy wanted to collect from you just now?" ”
"Your Highness." The swarthy man from Jiangsu and Zhejiang knelt down and said, "These servants have to levy thirty percent of the tax, and we have never encountered such a thing before..."
"Your Highness, this matter is absolutely true, our tax rates have been ridiculously high this year.."
"Your Highness, I have an eighty-year-old mother in my family, and a young son who is waiting to be fed, and it is difficult for us to make ends meet after paying taxes..."
"That's it, the Yamen of this city forcibly increased the tax rate, and if you don't agree with each other, you will start beating people..."
"I hope Your Highness will see clearly..."
“.....。”
The surrounding people knelt down to accuse Wang Weining of his evil deeds, and everyone was angry.
"Cousin, this group of Diao people is talking nonsense, I only happen occasionally, and there are accounts in the household department, and there are accounts in the yamen..."
"Dog, do you still have the face to be related to this king?"
Guo Tianyi said angrily, "You are an official just to oppress the people? Is this skin giving you confidence, or is the identity of this royal relative giving you confidence? ”
"This king told you."
"I Dafeng leads the people to fight the country, guard the country, and guard the hearts of the people!"
"You are a moth, it's rat droppings!" Guo Tianyi waved his sleeves, "Take this group of garbage away quickly to this king, and tell the officials of the criminal department that everything is strict, if you dare to shield this king, you will be asked by the criminal department." ”
"Well, well said!"
"His Royal Highness the King of Han Chitose, Chitose, Chitose..."
"His Royal Highness the King of Han, you are the Ming Monarch..."
"Han King Chitose..."
“.....。”
The surrounding people were enthusiastic by Guo Tianyi's words.
In terms of gaining the hearts of the people, Guo Tianyi from later generations has routines.
This set has long been played to perfection.
"No, cousin, we're relatives..."
Without saying a word, the guards pressed down Wang Weining's henchmen, and Wang Weining was still begging when he was dragged away.
Guo Tianyi looked at the people kneeling and kowtowing around him, and he couldn't help but feel a little more sad in his heart, and stretched out his hand to press the void, and all the sounds stopped abruptly.
"Whoever you have been wronged, tell this king."
"This king will definitely call the shots for you."
As Guo Tianyi's majestic voice echoed on the dock, all the traders and people were so excited that they were about to cry.
The emperors of all dynasties said that Aiming was like a son.
But there is very little that ordinary people can really feel.
Guo Tianyi's words made these people eager to shed their blood for him.
In the distance, in the crowd, there was a cloth dressed in a long shirt looking at Guo Tianyi with an extremely satisfied smile.
"Your Highness, there are palace guards here."
Xiao Anzi noticed the movement in the distance and attached an ear canal next to Guo Tianyi's ear.
"Huh?"
Guo Tianyi squinted his eyes, looked back, and his eagle-like eyes locked on a figure in a python robe.
King Wei?
It's coming so fast.
Guo Tianyi only felt a cold sweat on his body.
Fortunately, he had foresight and dealt with Wang Weining.
In every way, I did a very beautiful job.
not only did the righteous killing of relatives give the people justice, but also gained the hearts of the people.
If you let King Wei take the lead, you will be extremely passive.
Even this guy will unite with that group of old ministers to participate in his own book.
The prestige he has just built up will also be swept away.
Political struggles are already dangerous.
Not to mention royal?
"Third brother, what are you doing here?"
After King Wei arrived with thousands of armor soldiers, he looked at Guo Tianyi and frowned.
"Second brother, this king found out that a relative was corrupt and perverted the law in Fang City, and he filled his pockets..."
"This king has already solved it with his own hands and handed it over to the Criminal Department, so I won't bother the second brother."
Guo Tianyi smiled faintly, his playful eyes seemed to see through King Wei's thoughts, and he seemed to smile rather than smile.
"Bold!" Seeing Guo Tianyi's attitude, the little eunuch beside King Wei immediately pulled the male duck and said, "King Han, do you know that His Royal Highness my family is here by the will of the Queen Mother..."
"What are you?"
"This king is talking to the second brother, and you are a slave to intervene?"
"Come on, give this king a palm!"
"Yes, Your Highness."
Immediately, several silver-armored guards beside Guo Tianyi stepped forward with an arrow and slapped their faces.
"Ahh
"Ahh
King Wei's personal eunuch kept screaming, and a few slaps flew out of his front teeth.
Xiao Anzi and the others were greatly refreshed, and the people around them were stunned.
"His Royal Highness the King of Han Chitose, we support you..."
"His Royal Highness the King of Han is good, this slave has no royal authority under the offense, so he should be beaten..."
"But isn't it, His Royal Highness the King of Han has even cleaned up his own relatives, what is this minion?"
"If I were this little eunuch, I would kill myself.."
"That's it, His Royal Highness the King of Han loves the people so much, what kind of thing is he..."
"His Royal Highness the King of Han Chitose..."
“......。”
The surrounding people shouted "Thousand Years Old Han", which made King Wei angry.
He is neither left nor right now, if he accuses Guo Tianyi, it will represent his support for this kind of thing that has no royal authority.
In ancient times, the king was the heavens.
A eunuch is just a minion.
What's even more terrifying is that Guo Tianyi's words have won the hearts of countless people.
This is extremely detrimental to him.
"Dog stuff."
"There is not enough success, and there is more than failure."
King Wei was angry, and immediately glanced at his henchmen.
Seeing this, a strong man beside him made a move, and with a "click", he directly twisted the little eunuch's neck.
Seeing this scene, Guo Tianyi's brows furrowed deeply.
He knew that King Wei was demonstrating to himself.
And this guy's ruthlessness is also well deserved.
"Third brother."
"You're good, you're doing a great job."
King Wei looked at Guo Tianyi, and his tone was extremely low.
Immediately, the king of Wei turned the horse's head, and the rest of the armor soldiers also turned their horse's head and left the dock.
After this battle, the hatred between King Wei and Guo Tianyi has reached the point where it cannot be resolved.
He was frequently deflated, and today he even pinched his personal little eunuch to death in front of everyone, which was a shame for him.
"Heh~"
"What the hell~"
Guo Tianyi looked at King Wei's expression as if he had eaten, and he was also about to leave.
As soon as he left the dock, a man dressed in cedar bent down and said, "Qiu Yu, the grass people, see His Royal Highness the King of Han." ”
"Huh?"
"Qiu Yu?"
"Isn't it Qiu Yu, the right-hand man who later helped the four princes successfully defeat the King of Wei?"
Guo Tianyi didn't want to take care of this cloth clothes, but a look of ecstasy suddenly appeared in his heart.
It's really hard to find nowhere to step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there!
