Chapter 102 - How Can Corrupt Officials Cover the Sky

"Ninth Prince, please sit down!"

The Minister of Justice reached out to signal.

Aside from Pineapple Flower, an empty chair was already added.

"Lu Chen, it's still time to regret it now. Don't hit the south wall, but you realize that you regret turning back. At that time, no one will give you a chance!" The Eighth Princess said in a deep voice.

Due to the large number of people who were judging the outside world, she did not dare to say it too clearly, which would inevitably arouse public discussion, and thus would be remarks that she colluded with the Ministry of Justice and deliberately concealed the truth.

After all, ordinary people do not know the details of the imperial power struggle, and they are not clear about who the major forces will choose to support and engage in open and secret struggles.

When Lu Chen heard this, he glanced at her faintly, and after sitting down with a blank expression, he said indifferently: "If I hit the south wall, I will knock the south wall over. If someone hit the south wall, all I get is bloody."

"you!"

The Eighth Princess's pretty face was immediately ugly, and she gritted her silver teeth and sneered: "Don't blame me for not being missed with old love. This is what you messed with me first!"

"Mr. Gou, if the prince is guilty of slander or forge evidence, how should he be punished?" the third prince asked lightly.

"The prince commits a crime, and the crime is even higher!"

The Minister of Justice nodded and responded, not saying how to punish him, but the words of adding more crimes to one's first level already represent everything.

"Haha, since that's the case, then let's start the party."

The third prince nodded and smiled with satisfaction, glanced at Lu Chen with contempt, and said no more.

"It is rumored that the Minister of Revenue Pan Hong embezzled the resources of the treasury and squandered excessively. In order to make up for the losses of the treasury, he plundered the people's wealth and misfortune, causing the civilians to suffer in all parts of the Wuhuang Realm. Can you recognize this crime?"

Bang!

The Minister of Justice questioned in a deep voice, then slapped the arbor and looked down at Pan Hong, who was kneeling down.

"Mr. Gou, you said it too. That's just a rumor. How can you believe the unruly people's words? If the court ordered officials to be punished, will the lives of all officials in the future be determined by rumors?"

The Minister of Revenue Pan Hong sneered and looked calm and composed.

"Fuck! If there is no such thing, why would there be rumors?"

"Yes, before the rumors appeared, I heard that many places are in dire straits. On the contrary, at this moment, the Ministry of Revenue has also increased taxes. How do you explain this?"

"Hmph, corrupt officials, can you really cover up the sky with one hand?"

"Kill such corrupt officials! Eliminate the cancer!"

In an instant, many people who were observing all shouted loudly and loudly, one wave higher than another, which was amazing.

"quiet!"

Bang!

The Minister of Justice frowned and slapped the agglomeration. After everyone stopped talking, he looked at Pan Yu, the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and said in a deep voice: "The rumors cannot be fully believed in the public. However, Pan Yu, you threatened to have the evidence of Pan Hong's corruption. Since that's the case, take it out!"

"Pan Yu, you..."

Pan Hong's expression changed slightly, and he looked at Pan Yu with a cold look.

I never thought that my nephew would really kill his relatives for justice!

The faces of the Eighth Princess and other princesses are also not good-looking.

They knew very well that Pan Yu, as the Minister of Revenue and the cashier of the treasury, was recorded and reviewed by him.

"Of course, a year ago, before I took office, I received an order from His Highness Ninth to sneak into the Ministry of Revenue and investigate the corruption of the Ministry of Revenue. At first, I didn't believe it, but after taking office, everything I saw was extremely disgusting!"

"I believe Lord Gou knows very well that Pan Hong is my second uncle. Therefore, I have advised him many times to surrender and confess his guilt. However, he didn't listen at all. As a member of the Wuhuang Realm and an official, how could I watch the people and be deeply trapped in the land of water and fire?"

"So, I will write down the corruption regulations of the Ministry of Revenue one by one. Please take a look at this treasury account book!"

After Pan Yu's expression went from sadness to angry words, he took out the treasury account book from his arms and handed it over to the officers and soldiers of the Ministry of Justice, and presented it to the court.

"For the sake of the people of the world, we will kill our relatives for the sake of justice. Pan Yuzhen is a good official!"

"Yes, what people in the world need is such a good official who cares about the people!"

Many people who were observing, led by Yun Bufan, shouted loudly.

"When did you persuade me?"

However, Pan Hong was stunned for a moment, and then glared at Pan Yu in a panic. Don’t say that he had never been persuaded, every time he divided the spoils, Pan Yu took more!

Now he actually stood up and punished himself in the way of killing his relatives for the sake of justice?

It's really damn!

"I'm wronged! I'm wronged!"

Pan Hong clasped his fists and shouted loudly, and finally looked at the Eighth Princess and said sadly: "Princess Eighth Princess is also asked to avenge me!"

"Damn it, I actually arranged for Pan Yu to sneak into the Ministry of Revenue. In this way, you designed it early and wanted to deal with me? I really misread you!"

The Eighth Princess was sad and looked at Lu Chen with disappointment. Seeing that he was still expressionless and indifferent to everything, the grief and disappointment completely turned into anger.

"Mr. Gou, the treasury account book should be fake, right? This person was also bought by the ninth prince with a lot of money to slander Lord Pan, right?"

The third prince asked lightly.

"Hehe, this crime of bribing officials and slandering important officials is not a minor matter, especially the prince's crime, which is more than the crime!" The eighth princess gritted her silver teeth and sneered coldly.

However, no matter how they spoke or said, Lu Chen always ignored it, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

Such calmness made several princes and princesses secretly resentful.

Bang!

Suddenly, the Minister of Justice closed the treasury account book, picked up the gavel, slapped it suddenly, and scolded it loudly: "Pan Hong, you are arrogant! As the Minister of Revenue, you have done such a serious crime. So far, the treasury still owes a full 90 million taels of gold. Now all the certified physical evidence is here, do you have anything else to say?"

"What!"

As soon as these words came out, the third prince's expression suddenly changed. He turned his head mechanically and looked at the Minister of Justice in disbelief. He never expected that this would be the result?

The eldest prince, the fourth prince, the seventh prince and the eighth princess were even more stunned.

"I, I, I am wronged! I am wronged!"

After Pan Hong was stunned, he suddenly yelled wildly.

The arrogant look with disheveled hair was really dazzling.

"Injustice? All the certified physical evidence is there, how dare you shout for injustice?"

The Minister of Justice laughed angrily, then slapped the agglomeration, stood up and ordered: "Pan Hong, the Minister of Revenue, embezzled the national treasury, plundered the people's wealth and ointment, did not listen to the persuasion, and finally did not repent. It was a serious sin. At noon today, I asked for the beheading!"

"Get out!"
