"fart!"
Before Zhang Dayuan could finish speaking, someone from the new guard shouted, "He's talking nonsense! I was at the harbor docks yesterday and saw the Zhao and Qian families loading grain onto the ships..."
Their two families possess at least several thousand bushels of grain!
"Yes! I saw them too! Those ships are still in the harbor today!"
"Yes, Zhang Dayuan is a corrupt official! His family alone has more grain than this..."
...
The refugees in the new guard were chattering and making noise all at once.
Hearing these words, Zhang Dayuan was stunned.
Unexpectedly, it even involved me.
As soon as he looked up, he saw Li Xin's gloomy face.
"Your Highness, please forgive me! This...this humble servant..."
Zhang Dayuan suddenly knelt down on the ground.

I, the king, cannot tolerate corrupt officials!

The people deeply resented it.
Unfortunately, these people were unarmed and could only be slaughtered at the mercy of others.
Now that someone is standing up for them, they are cheering and supporting them.
Liu Jingxuan, standing to the side, had a drastic change in expression.
He stepped forward, leaned close to Li Xin, and whispered, "Your Highness, please be careful!"
The Zhao and Qian families are powerful, deeply rooted, and intricately connected in Dongning City!
As the saying goes, even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake!
Your Highness should proceed with caution…
"Even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake? Bullshit!"
Li Xin roared, "I'm going to suppress them!"
