"As those holding the titles of Prince, Commandery Prince, and Duke, we ought to set the standard for the entire realm,"
"As for the other members of the Imperial family and Prominent Families, they may begin by conducting internal audits. If they discover any oversights, they should proceed to their local Government Office, Prefecture Mansion, or Three Talents Section to make up the tax payments."
Once Prince Dede uttered these words, every member present, except for those from the Zhao Clan and the lineage of Prince De Xin, secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although internal auditing and repayments of taxes could potentially hit hard, it was much better than having one's misconduct exposed nakedly to the entire realm after an investigation. Moreover, since it was a self-audit, how much tax to make up would be at their discretion, which left considerable room for maneuver.
Instinctively, the audience felt a bit of fondness for Prince Dede.
