Chapter 436 Wrongful

During the Three Kingdoms period, the court always existed, but no one took the court seriously. The princes from all over the country held tax power and military power in their hands, so naturally there was no need to look at the weak court's expression.

These two powers are the powerful tools of the imperial court to control the world and the country. The fundamental reason for the country is absolutely impossible to get involved in the local area.

Zheng Baorong is not at the level of the situation and can’t see clearly, but Li Chen will not tolerate it.

Mr. Mirror also understands this.

He frowned slightly and said nothing.

After setting up Guanhai Academy in Weihaiwei for so many years, Mr. Jingzhi has also had a lot of dealings with Zheng Baorong. He knew that Zheng Baorong was not a corrupt official, but was a good official who was devoted to local construction and development. Therefore, he lived in seclusion in the academy three times, and Mr. Jingzhi set up one here.

But he can't speak out in the current situation.

For those in power, they often don’t care whether their subordinates are treacherous or loyal ministers, but rather whether they are capable ministers who are useful to them.

"I am a good minister, I am a good minister..."

Zheng Baorong stayed in the empress for a long time, but he could not say the following words.

He felt that he was begging for mercy, and he was even more afraid. He felt anxious and afraid. A layer of fine beads of sweat oozing out of his already fat face in this cold winter, which looked even more greasy.

Li Chen frowned and his impression of Zheng Baorong was 10% higher.

Even if this person has some management skills, he is definitely not a qualified politician and cannot say anything at any time or in any occasion.

However, Li Chen didn't expect anyone who had been a local prefect to have any political experience by spending money to buy an official position since he became a local prefect.

If you climb up from the grassroots level, it will be different. If you can get up from the vast grassroots level, you will inevitably have the ability to talk to others and speak to ghosts.

Even Su Jinpa next to him couldn't see this scene.

"Why don't you admit your mistake to Your Highness?" Su Jinpa said.

Zheng Baorong suddenly realized that His Highness did not order punishment as soon as possible, that was that there was still room for trouble. If he didn't speak, the daylily would be cold.

"Your Highness, I am aware of the crime, please punish me."

Seeing Zheng Baorong kowtowing like pounding garlic, Li Chen's tense face was a little relieved, but Li Chen did not say anything about punishment, but instead asked: "Since you have a hard work to manage Weihaiwei, why do the local people complain about you? Can't you hear these?"

"The most fundamental purpose of managing local and urban construction is to serve the people. Otherwise, what's the point of building a clean and beautiful Weihai Acropolis?"

Zheng Baorong looked miserable and said, "Your Highness, the people's eyes are always limited. They only know what the Wei ministers have taken from them, but few people see clearly what they have obtained."

"To be honest, Weichen's family is one of the most wealthy families in Weihaiwei, and he has some money. However, Weichen collects taxes. The most ordinary people only bear a small part, and the rich people bear more. In Weichen's family, Weichen is the largest taxpayer in Weihaiwei every year, and the commercial taxes collected account for 10% of the entire Weihaiwei tax."
