Chapitre 240: My Admiration

Nianzu analyzed whatever Crown Princess put forward. Indeed, they did not want them to turn into their enemies, instead; they needed to make sure that the appointed officials themselves understood their responsibility towards the Empire. 

"What does the Crown Princess think we should do?" Nianzu queried her. 

"We can reduce their salaries and increase the taxes for them, as they are the ones who exploited our people. The severity of this punishment will be decided based on their ranks, and a close check will be kept on them by a special group of officers," Ying Lili pronounced. 

"That special group will be directly responsible to the Governor, that's the First Prince and the Crown Prince," Ying Lili affirmed. 

Sheng Li and Jian Guozhi looked at each other. "Then, we two will be responsible directly to the Emperor and the Advisor," Sheng Li proclaimed.
