Liu Chen glanced at the two people who were singing along, and said coldly:"Zhang stole people's property by clever means. He committed a heinous crime. He ransacked his house and abandoned the market. He will be executed immediately!"

Abandoning the market is the death penalty!

After hearing this penalty, Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then howled with disbelief on his face:

"Your Highness, the laws of the Han Dynasty do not have such heavy penalties. I only corrupted twenty acres of land, which cost tens of thousands of dollars. I can pay double the fine! Yuan Fu, the Prime Minister on the side, was even more stunned. He had some bad premonitions in his heart and said hurriedly:"Your Highness, this sentence is inconsistent with the law. I am afraid that people will criticize you. All the officials in the court may report the impeachment to Your Highness!""

"I am the King of Changshan, and this is the Kingdom of Changshan. Here, I am the heaven, the law, and the judge! Liu Chen said in a cold voice with disdain.

If it were before, Liu Chen would not have dared to be so blatant.

After all, after experiencing the Seven Kingdoms Rebellion, the centralization of power in the Han Dynasty was consolidated and strengthened. Later, there were even more favor orders to weaken the rights of the vassal states.

Even Yuan Fu, the prime minister, was appointed by the central court.

However, after the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the court decentralized general power, and local warlords separated themselves and monopolized power.

Now in the center of the Luoyang court, the fight between relatives and eunuchs has become increasingly fierce. It's intense, and there will be tragedies like Dong Zhuo's entry into Beijing in the future, which can be described as chaos.

Will Liu Chen still care about the impeachment of hundreds of officials in the court? It's a joke!

"Pull it down and chop it down to serve as a warning to others! Liu Chen said coldly and ruthlessly

"yes."

Zhao Yun and other soldiers, only Liu Chen followed his lead and naturally carried out his orders without hesitation.

The powerful Zhang was dragged down directly:"Your Highness! Your Highness, please spare your life! Your Highness! Seeing that Liu

Chen was indifferent, just after Zhang was dragged out of the door, he howled:"Your Highness!" I said! I said! I do have some financial dealings with Yuan Guoxiang!"

"slander! This thief is disgusting! Drag him down immediately and interrogate him!"Yuan Fu jumped up like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and roared angrily.

However, although Yuan Fu was the prime minister, he could not move Zhao Yun and other soldiers. Liu Chen said coldly:"Bring them up!"

Zhang, who was dragged out a long way, was dragged back to the lobby again.

This scene made the people marvel. Sure enough, they would tell the truth only when they were about to die.

Guo Jia, Jushou and Tian Feng, three wise men, were there. For a moment, my mind was like lightning, and I finally figured out Liu Chen's countermeasures and method of attack!

"What a plan! Guo

Jia thought with a chuckle:

"Sure enough, the city was breached from the inside. Zhang thought that he only needed to drink three glasses of wine as a fine to solve the problem. Who would have thought that King Changshan would just ransack his house and behead him.

As the saying goes, a dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist. Since he is about to die, naturally he still knows everything and talks about it."

Although Ju Shou and Tian Feng were not as gloating as Guo Jia, their thoughts were almost the same.

Yuan Fu, the Prime Minister of the State, turned pale for a moment. He thought about it and felt that he had not left any clues. He felt at ease. Come down.

But looking at Zhang's eyes, I just wanted to eat him alive.

After Zhang was dragged up, his body shook, he knelt down and lowered his head directly, not daring to look at Yuan Fu's face, and directly told the story one by one. Shi said it.

The thing was very simple. He failed in the transaction and bribed Yuan Fu to steal the old farmer's land.

This kind of thing happened again and again. It was not the first time that they had done it. Even many powerful and noble people in Changshan Kingdom had done it. , have all had this experience.

Zhang finally said:"……This time, Yuan Guoxiang accepted 20,000 yuan from the grassroots, so he agreed to this matter."

"Twenty thousand dollars is more than enough to buy twenty acres of land, why would you add any unnecessary extravagance? Liu Chen asked in confusion.

Zhang said with a sad face:"Your Highness, Changshan's grain output has tripled this year, and land prices have risen sharply." Local household registration is already priceless!

"The common people were only temporarily blinded by greed, causing such disasters. Please spare your life, Your Highness!"Zhang kowtowed and begged for mercy.

Liu Chen did not expect that he was indirectly promoting this matter, because his vigorous development led to a bumper harvest of food, increased land prices, and even made thieves take risks.

Liu Chen's mind was like lightning, and he immediately looked at the Prime Minister Yuan Fu asked coldly:"Prime Minister, do you have anything to say in defense?"

"There is no need for my subordinates to defend themselves. Those who are clean will be cleansed themselves. Even if the thieves slander you out of thin air, I believe that Your Highness will return your innocence! After all, everything depends on evidence!"

Yuan Fu said with an angry look on his face. He was going to hold on and say nothing. There was no evidence anyway, and Liu Chen couldn't do anything to him.

Liu Chen looked at Zhang and asked,"Do you have any evidence? If not, slandering the Prime Minister would be a serious crime against the nine tribes!"

"Yes, yes!"

That Zhang nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and said, which made Yuan Fu feel a little bit in his heart, and he had an unpleasant feeling:

"The 20,000 yuan was personally delivered to the Prime Minister's Mansion by the Cao Min. The Cao Min and Cao Min had sent people to keep an eye on the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister had not been transferred yet and should still be in the Mansion."

"joke! Yuan Fu said disdainfully:

"A certain person is the prime minister of the country, with a salary of two thousand dan. What's so strange about having a family with tens of thousands of dollars? Just use this as evidence?

Your Highness, this thief has slandered an official of Changshan State, please make the decision for me! Please order me to kill this thief as a warning to others!"

That Zhang raised his head and looked at Yuan Fu, and said with a risk-taking look:"The common people have marked the 20,000 yuan, and His Highness will find out if he sends someone to investigate! As for the money from last time, the common people also know exactly where the Prime Minister transferred it.……"

This dog-eat-dog dialogue opened the eyes of the people around him. After hearing Zhang's words, an uproar broke out.

Yuan Fu's face turned pale instantly. He thought about it a lot, but he never thought that Zhang still had one hand!

"Did you leave a mark? Liu Chen was surprised and asked,"What marks were left?""

Zhang said calmly.

He personally ordered people to leave money on most of the five-baht coins."X"He also sent people to follow him for a long time and discovered the secret treasure location of the Prime Minister.

He knew that there was no airtight wall in the world, so he prepared early just for this day.

"Zilong, search the Prime Minister's Mansion and send people to search the treasure spot!"

"yes!"

Zhao Yun quickly led the soldiers to leave, and the people were looking forward to it one by one. At the same time, they pointed at Yuan Fu.

They had no good impression of this corrupt and bribed Prime Minister at all. In the eyes of the people, being an official Not making decisions for the people is a corrupt official.

Zhao Yun came back soon, carrying thirteen big boxes

"Your Highness, it is exactly the same as what Zhang said. Zhao

Yun cupped his hands and said,"And other gold and silver treasures were also found in the Prime Minister's Mansion and other places. The salary of the Prime Minister seems to be a bit excessive.""

"open to take a look."Liu Chen waved his hand and said.

When the box was opened, the gold and silver jewelry almost blinded everyone's eyes. There was also a box inside that was specially used to store house deeds and land deeds.

"The Prime Minister's salary of two thousand stone can actually make money to this extent. Why don't you teach me how to manage money?"

Liu Chen said with a sneer. Yuan Fu felt as if he were mourning for his heir. He didn't even have the strength to refute his sophistry.

Liu Chen immediately looked at the gold and silver treasures. At this moment, he saw an account and picked it up to look through. Look, his eyes narrowed.
