"Fang Chen, what else do you have to say now?" Wu Xuan sneered.
Everything has been proven that Fang Chen took 400,000 taels and misappropriated public funds, which is definitely a capital crime!
No one can protect him now.
At this time, officials jumped out one after another.
"Master Fang, I really didn't expect that you would do such a thing. Everyone thought that everything you did was for the country and the people. They didn't expect that you were doing good deeds with other people's money and giving yourself face."
Top it off with gold!”
"Fortunately, our Mr. Wu was selfless and investigated this matter. He also launched an investigation into the matter in front of His Majesty, and then the true face of Mr. Fang was revealed. He is simply extremely ugly!"
"Master Fang, the matter has come to this, what else do you have to say? Your misappropriation of public funds has become a fact. Are you still not pleading guilty?"
"It's true that you know people but don't know their hearts. Now the truth is revealed. Everything Mr. Fang did was to put himself in a position of power and want to have higher and stronger power!"
At this moment, what Fang Chen had done had aroused public outrage. Almost all the officials from the Ministry of Revenue jumped out to accuse Fang Chen, and even cursed him. All of a sudden, Fang Chen was described as a heinous person.
Officials from other departments in the hall did not speak, and they all acted as if the matter had nothing to do with them.
Wu Xuan sneered on the side, and Zhang Fengwu also had a victorious smile on his lips.
It seems that Fang Chen can be captured today without his father executing the terrible plague plan.
When Wu Xuan saw that the time had come, he immediately knelt in the center of the hall: "Your Majesty, now that the evidence is irrefutable, I beg your Majesty to convict Fang Chen! According to our country's legislation, Fang Chen will be sentenced to death!"
Zhang Fengwu's face was full of grief: "I thought Fang Chen was a great hero and a model for our generation to learn from. Now I know how disgusting everything Fang Chen did is. He will do whatever it takes to achieve his goal, and he should be punished for his crimes."
!”
Other officials also knelt on the ground one after another.
"I beg your Majesty to convict Fang Chen and punish him on the spot!"
"I second the motion!"
"I also agree!"
Fang Chen felt very ridiculous when he saw the ugly faces of all the officials in the court.
But he was still as steady as a rock: "My lords, have you forgotten how the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue ended up last time? It was because of slander that I paid a heavy price. Do you also want to go to the Imperial Hospital to accompany the Minister?"
An official cursed: "Fang Chen, you are a hypocrite and a heinous villain. You are still talking shamelessly even when you are about to die!"
Another official also said angrily: "Fang Chen, you are dead today! If you commit such a serious crime, let's see who can save you!"
When Luo Ningxin saw the ugly faces of these officials, murderous intent arose in her heart. She really wanted to order all these bastards to be killed.
"Everyone, be silent!" A stream of cold breath burst out from Luo Ningxin's body, suppressing it and going forward.
The emperor is angry!
The surrounding air suddenly dropped!
Suddenly, everyone became quiet.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report!"
At this time, Zhou Kang, Minister of Industry, stood up.
"Your Majesty, Master Fang sent over this morning a contract and a million taels of silver. The contract is the black powder contract signed by Master Fang and Hu Yanzhuo!"
As soon as this was said, many people were shocked!
"Master Zhou, you...what did you say? You said that Master Fang sent one million taels of silver notes to the Ministry of Industry? How is this possible?"
"Mr. Zhou, are you talking nonsense? Where is the one million taels of silver note? Where is the contract? Take it out now!"
"Master Zhou, are you trying to protect Fang Chen?"
Several people glared at Zhou Kang and asked.
Zhou Kang looked at Angry and the others as if he were watching a few monkeys jumping around.
"Your Majesty is here, and all the civil and military officials are here. How could I lie? How could I lie?"
"If you don't believe it, I will immediately arrange for someone to bring over the one million taels of silver notes and the contract!"
As soon as these words were spoken, there was complete silence, and the stiffness of the neck could be heard!
Those who attacked Fang Chen all had stiff expressions, and some of them swallowed their words.
Zhou Kang continued: "As for the black powder business, Hu Yanzhuo only agrees with Mr. Fang and is only willing to sign a contract with Mr. Fang. Our Ministry of Industry knows about this matter. Mr. Fang will give away the money and things after signing the contract.
Come, so Mr. Fang did not use the one million silver."
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly became very depressing.
Wu Xuan and Zhang Fengwu couldn't believe it. They thought they had won, and now suddenly the Minister of Industry appeared.
The one million taels of silver were all sent to the Ministry of Industry, and Fang Chen did not misappropriate them.
Now the problem comes again.
If Fang Chen hadn't embezzled public funds, where did the four hundred thousand taels of silver come from?
Wu Xuan was covered in cold sweat. He still couldn't believe it. He rushed to Zhou Kang, grabbed Zhou Kang's arm, and shouted in shock: "Master Zhou, what on earth is going on? Fang Chen really gave away one million
Is there still a contract for two taels of silver to be sent to the Ministry of Industry? Is all this true?"
Zhou Kang nodded lightly: "Yes, Mr. Fang sent a young eunuch named Qiunian to deliver the money and contract to our Ministry of Industry."
After receiving Zhou Kang's affirmation again, Wu Xuan's feet went weak, he could no longer stand still, and he staggered.
How could such a careful plan go so wrong!
All the officials from the Household Department at the scene were livid, some were covered in cold sweat, and their hearts were extremely frightened.
Zhang Fengwu was very angry, glared at Zhou Kang, and shouted: "Master Zhou, since this happened, why didn't you tell me earlier?"
Wu Xuan and Zhang Fengwu thought that they could put Fang Chen to death this time, but now it seems that they are the clowns.
Of course Zhou Kang didn't want to say it, he wanted to watch these clowns perform slowly, enjoy the show slowly, and then talk about it when the time is right.
He had a mocking look on his face.
"I'm really sorry. Your voices were too loud just now. You kept attacking Mr. Fang. I want to say that you couldn't hear me either."
"I asked you all to stop talking just now, but no one listened to me. This has nothing to do with me."
Wu Xuan and Zhang Fengwu were about to explode with anger.
Zhou Kang was really trying to persuade him not to attack Fang Chen just now, but no one listened. They were all eager to kill Fang Chen immediately.
At this time, Zhang Fengwu roared at Fang Chen: "Master Fang, since your 400,000 taels are not Hu Yanzhuo's money, then where did this money come from? Why don't you get it from the real thing!"
Fang Chen stared at Zhang Fengwu with cold eyes and mocked: "Who do you think you are? What qualifications do you have to interrogate me? If you ask me to recruit you from the truth, what should I recruit?"
