"Your Majesty has said to pardon me, then pardon me. I will now announce Your Majesty's decree to the entire city."
"Your Majesty is kind and benevolent. I believe the people of Shangjing will definitely remember your kindness."
Hearing this, Ying Yuan waved his hand and said, "Alright, I'm tired after all this journey. You all can go down."
He doesn't care whether the people remember what he did.
He only cared about whether such an approach could undermine the national strength of the Qin Dynasty.
Even if it fails, it will add some burden to the Qin treasury.
After all, taxes do not become the government's money just because they are put into the government's pocket.
Instead, once natural disasters, man-made disasters, etc. occur in various places, the court needs to provide timely relief with money.
If one day, the capital city encounters some disaster and no taxes are collected here.
Then the court would have to pay for it out of its own pocket.
After Xu Chu and Dian Wei left, Ying Yuan sat on a chair and thought to himself:
"While I am failing the country, I can also improve the living conditions of the people. This way, I will feel less guilty."
"As long as we work hard to deplete the treasury, I believe that one day, the Qin Dynasty will be completely destroyed."
If there is no prior agreement with the system, the country cannot be defeated unconventionally.
Otherwise, Ying Yuan would have directly issued an order to exempt all taxes in Jin and even Qin.
However, if you do this, the system will definitely judge it as using unconventional means.
Just then.
Zhao Gao came to report that Jinyiwei Ding Baiying wanted to see him.
Upon hearing this, Ying Yuan immediately said, "Announce."
Afterwards, Ding Baiying, who was dressed in women's clothes, slowly walked up to him. Just as she was about to kneel, he stopped her. Then she heard him say:
"You come to see me, and there are no outsiders here, so why do you need to go through such a common etiquette?"
Afterwards, Ding Baiying couldn't hide her longing for him, she hugged Ying Yuan directly and said softly:
"Your Majesty, I really miss you. After hearing the news that Your Majesty was assassinated in Wu State, I was really worried. I wanted to go find you, but I was afraid that Your Majesty would find me too annoying."
Ying Yuan touched her head and said with a smile, "How could that be? I wish you were by my side every day."
"Speaking of which, I have never given you a proper status over the years, which has really made things difficult for you."
Ding Baiying raised his head slightly, looked into Ying Yuan's eyes, shook his head, and said:
"As long as I can follow His Majesty, I don't need any status. Besides, for me, a free and unrestrained life is more suitable for me."
She no longer calls herself "I", but "concubine".
Even though I just changed my name.
It can be seen that she is not a woman who is greedy for fame and fortune, but is willing to submit to Ying Yuan.
"I heard that you participated in the dispute between the martial arts world in Mingtai Prefecture? Let me take a good look and see if you are injured."
Ying Yuan sat on a chair and pulled Ding Baiying over and let her sit on his lap.
Then, his hands started to become restless.
After a while, Ding Baiying's face turned red.
Inside the palace, many guards and eunuchs turned around quickly when they saw this situation.
Because there were many people in the hall, Ding Baiying couldn't help feeling a little ashamed. She wanted to resist Ying Yuan, but she didn't dare to.
With this mentality, he became even more unable to stop.
He had no choice but to lower his head and said softly: "Your Majesty, so many people are watching..."
Ying Yuan suddenly glared, "Who dares to look at me?"
The sound was neither loud nor soft, but there was a slight echo in the hall.
In an instant, the eunuchs and guards who heard these words fell to their knees.
I didn't even dare to raise my head.
Seeing this, Ding Baiying had no choice but to follow Ying Yuan's wishes and let him play with her.
After a while, she asked curiously, "After the Jianghu forces in Jin learned that Your Majesty had arrived here, they all wanted to assassinate Your Majesty."
"Your Majesty, knowing this place is already a dangerous place, why did you come here? Is it just to show it to the people of Jin?"
She was worried about Ying Yuan's safety.
The latter smiled and said, "There's been nothing going on in the court recently, and I have a rare moment of leisure. Couldn't I have come to see you?"
Ding Baiying became even more shy, her face as red as an apple. She gently pounded Ying Yuan's chest and whispered in his ear:
"Your Majesty...I am speaking to you seriously."
Ying Yuan smiled and said shamelessly: "I am also very serious."
Then.
He carried Ding Baiying to the bed in the hall.
At the same time, the guards and eunuchs retreated on their own accord.

After Xu Chu promulgated Ying Yuan's decree.
It immediately caused a sensation in Shangjing City.
duty free!
For many ordinary people, this is a matter that is bigger than anything else.
Don't underestimate those tax exemptions.
This is enough to bring about a qualitative improvement in the quality of life of many people.
Now, every corner of the city is discussing what Ying Yuan did:
"Yesterday, the Qin Emperor distributed money, but I didn't get any. I felt really bad. But I didn't expect that today, he would exempt me from paying taxes to go to the capital. It shows that the Qin Emperor is a good emperor!"
"Why are you still calling him Emperor Qin? He's the Emperor, don't you understand?"
"Yes, yes, the old gentleman is right, it is His Majesty the Emperor!"
"Your Majesty is a good emperor. How many years have we been in the capital since we were exempted from taxes?"
