Capítulo 177: Chapter 177

When Zhou Xizhong had come to power, he had differed from his predecessors. He viewed any favors for these rich clans as harm to the Dynasty and believed only evil would results from their close ties to the government. As such, he applied heavy burdens and strict rules to all the established families and dealt harshly with any overstep. All of the families were restricted and the commoners supported, and so the commoners loved Zhou Xizhong.
