Chapter 1570: To the Capitol



As for the other dishes, Xue Yan only picked out a few simple ones to taste — it was passable. As expected of the largest restaurant in Dianhe County. After that, he also picked up some for Jiang Yue to eat.

Just eat a little, don’t eat too much.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan ate unhurriedly while listening to the officers in the private room next door. The officers didn’t control their voices, so they could hear everything. Other rooms might not hear it, but they could hear it clearly in this private room.

“Drink, drink, drink.” The officers were either drinking or talking about trivial matters.

No matter what, they were all officers. Even if it was a small matter, many of them were about government affairs.

However, there was nothing related to heavy taxes.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were not in a hurry either, still listening quietly.

After a while…

“I heard that the Emperor is going to move the capital. Is that true?” An officer said.

“Really?” The officers who hadn’t heard of it all asked excitedly.

“It should be true,” another officer replied. “It’s been more than two years since we unified the world. It’s time to move the capital. Otherwise, people who need to report things to the Emperor would have to travel far and wide to reach him.”

“That’s right, that’s right.” The other officers agreed.

“Lu, why do you only care about drinking? Tell us and remind our brothers. Usually, among us, you’re the one who’s working the hardest.” An officer laughed.

“Yes, yes.” They all agreed.

There was an officer surnamed Lu in the private room next door. He had more balls than the other officers in the private room.

The lord and registrar they were talking about were the county magistrate and registrar of the county government.

“Not really.” Lu took another sip of wine and another big mouthful of food. He slowly lowered his voice. “But I can tell you what I know. I heard it when the Registrar was talking to the Lord.”

“What?” The other officers also lowered their voices, but they were all excited.

The sound next door was muffled. It was very soft, so Xue Yan couldn’t hear it clearly. However, Jiang Yue had good hearing and could hear everything.

The person called Lu whispered, “The Emperor is moving the capital. The location has been confirmed and construction is already underway. According to the Lord and the Registrar, the Emperor will be moving out of the capital in three years at most and to the new capital.”

“That’s great!” An officer immediately put down his wine cup. “When the capital is moved, we will get to live an even better life!” Even though he was extremely excited, he kept his voice very low.

The other officers also whispered excitedly.

Lu laughed. “We’re outside. We have to control ourselves.” He was obviously in a good mood.

“Yes, yes, yes.” The other officers also hushed their voices.

Then, these officers started to talk about other things.

After a while, these officers finished eating and left.

When she heard that there was no movement in the private room next door, Jiang Yue told Xue Yan, “When Lu lowered his voice just now, he said that the Emperor is moving the capital. He has already confirmed the location and started building his palace. In at most three years, he will move from the capital to the new capital. The other officers all agreed, and they even said that they would get to live a more lavish lifestyle.”

In other words, there was a higher possibility that there was something fishy about this heavy tax.
