Chapter Four Rehabilitation

"Should I have informed you before?"

With that said, Leng Yixuan came to the prime minister and looked at him condescendingly.

Liu Fan was already short, but when he saw Leng Yixuan standing in front of him with such a strong aura, he was like the prey in his mouth, unable to break free.

But Liu Fan has been in the court for decades and has become a very experienced and cunning fox.

After Liu Fan's expression changed a bit, he finally showed a smile.

Unfortunately, before he could say a few words, he was suddenly interrupted.

"Prime Minister, don't you still want to delay the time? Wait until those Xuanwu Sect soldiers arrive here and then kill me. Do you have such a plan in your heart?"

The prime minister's face turned pale again. How could he know his plan? It was impossible.

Liu Fan may have never told anyone else, not even these ministers, that he had ever spoken about this matter to them.

Suddenly, his bodyguard Ye Kai came to Leng Yixuan's side.

Leng Yixuan smiled slightly, "Prime Minister, now that you have finished saying what you want to say, it will be my turn next."

After saying that, the guard threw an account book in his hand in front of Liu Fan.

Liu Fan looked at this policy in a daze, wondering what it meant and wanted to know what was in this account book.

Just when he bent down to take the account book into his hands, the guard next to him, Ye Kai, began to read for him.

"The prime minister has embezzled 8,810,000 taels from the imperial treasury over the past ten years. He has also sought official positions for members of his family, forced away loyal and good ministers, and harmed the people. It is too many to write down. Please deal with it, your Majesty!"

After hearing Ye Kai read these words, Leng Yixuan smiled coldly, looked at Liu Fan, and deepened his smile.

"Prime Minister, did you hear this? These are things that I have spent decades investigating. I can finally settle this account with the Prime Minister."

"The Prime Minister said that I am a bastard, but seeing that the Prime Minister has embezzled so much money from the imperial court, you are just like me, nothing more than a coward."

What is the concept of embezzling 8.81 million taels?

According to the current level of the Shang Dynasty, a few taels of silver were enough for a family of five to live for a month.

Even the prime minister's annual salary is not enough to reach one thousand taels.

He embezzled so much money that he will never be able to spend it in a few lifetimes.

He had clearly embezzled so much money, yet he still had the nerve to accuse himself of being a fool. Now it sounds like a big joke.

Even Leng Yixuan couldn't help laughing.

When the ministers nearby heard this, they all blushed.

Not all of these officials were recruited by Liu Fan, but some of them believed what he said, thinking that what he said was very reasonable, and wanted to overthrow Leng Yixuan's rule.

That's why I joined him to plan this matter.

They didn't expect that the prime minister who looked so upright would be like this behind his back, which made them very angry.

They were actually deceived by him like this, and even almost did something to hurt the emperor.

If you think about it carefully, they are really like fools being played by the prime minister.

They all stared at him angrily. Seeing that the situation was not good, the prime minister hurriedly explained to them, but no one would listen to him.

Seeing the angry expressions on the faces of these ministers, Leng Yixuan smiled lightly and then said to them.

"Are you still planning to help the prime minister now? You should know whose side you should stand by, right?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the ministers looked at each other and then walked up behind Leng Yixuan in unison.

He immediately drew a clear line with the prime minister.

When he saw them, they all suddenly betrayed him and wanted to leave.

Liu Fan looked at them in surprise. There was no one behind him. Did they betray him like this?

"What the hell is going on with you? You clearly said that we would share joys and sorrows, and we also wanted to overthrow this foolish king, and yet you betrayed me like this?"

"How brave you are!"

Although this emperor is not a good person, they are not willing to die in his hands. After all, the consequences will be very serious.

The crime of treason would require the execution of the nine tribes, and they did not want to risk so much to do this.

As for how to choose, they finally had some ideas in mind.

Seeing that they all betrayed him, Liu Fan's face gradually became distorted.

Seeing that they were all very understanding, Leng Yixuan smiled with satisfaction.

"I know that you ministers are very sensible. As for what decisions to make, I think you all should know better than me."

Now that Su Qiluo's momentum has gone, no one is willing to help him anymore.

Leng Yixuan let out a hearty laugh and looked at him with contempt.

Now that no one is standing behind him, where should he go?

"Prime Minister, now that the situation is over, you still surrender without mercy. I know that you are not the only one who is planning this matter."

"If you can tell me who is behind this, I might be able to spare your life."

A trace of fear gradually appeared on Liu Fan's face. He didn't want to die in Leng Yixuan's hands.

But letting himself reveal the person behind it like this, he felt a little unhappy in his heart.

Liu Fan struggled in his heart, and then sneered.

Pretending to be calm, he said, "Hunjun, do you think you can control me like this? Don't be too happy too soon."

But Leng Yixuan didn't care at all about what Liu Fan said. Now that he had fallen into his hands, no matter how hard he struggled, it would be of no avail.

"Someone, pull the prime minister down."

But before Leng Yixuan finished speaking, Liu Fan suddenly waved his hand and shouted, "Here comes someone!"

Suddenly, many soldiers appeared from behind the palace and surrounded Leng Yixuan's soldiers.

"I didn't expect it. I had already hidden the soldiers here, so I was afraid that any accident would happen. But I didn't expect that I actually guessed it."

As he said this, a trace of loneliness suddenly flashed across Liu Fan's face.

It was obviously well planned, but how could it end up like this now?

Now that things have come to a point, I can only bite the bullet.

They are well-equipped, and there are quite a few of them, and they seem to be on par with Leng Yixuan's.

Liu Fan put his hands behind his back and said in a calm voice, "This foolish king is foolish and has harmed the country. We must attack him today. We cannot destroy our great Shang Dynasty like this."
