Chapter 173: At the Great Court Meeting, Chen Wujiu shows off his evil ways



"To oppose the land tax is to go against the historical trend and will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history!"

"To oppose the land tax is to oppose the people of the world, and you will be scolded to death!"

"I'm done! Who's for? Who's against?!"

"Those who object, stand up now!"

Under the threat of the long knife in Chen Wujiu's hand, no one was stupid enough to stand up now.

"Look, no one objects."

“That’s enough!”

Yan Jiaoran finally slammed the table in anger.

I don't know whether to applaud or to stop.

"Who gave you the courage to roar before the Emperor? Jinwu Guards, drag him out to the Meridian Gate and beat him to death!"

"Each provincial government office is to be led by a censor to conduct inspections. In principle, the origin of the inspection team members should be at least 3,000 miles away from the provincial government office being inspected."

"The Jingzhou Imperial City Administration, along with the other local Imperial City Administrations and the Plum Blossom Internal Guards, will follow His Majesty's orders and conduct random inspections of the implementation of the land tax system."

"According to the 'Great Zhou Ancestor's Instructions', this year's land survey will be conducted again. Officials at all levels must actively cooperate and not shirk responsibility or delay.
