Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 1345 Court trial confrontation ()

When Liu Yao questioned Fan Zhongqian, all the copied evidence was distributed to the people.

Holding a stack of evidence, the people were obviously in disbelief.

"How could Mr. Fan accept the benefits? Is there any misunderstanding?"

"Mrs. Fan has admitted it herself, so what misunderstanding can there be?"

"The evidence is conclusive and every detail is clear."

"I didn't expect Ye Qingqing to be such a pitiful person. Everyone has wronged her for so many years..."

"How could Fan Zhizhou be such a person? I still can't believe it."

"Oh, believe it or not, let's continue reading."

"This evidence is real and doesn't look like fraud."

"Yes, yes, let's read on."

The people were all talking and talking about it.

Fan Zhongqian in the audience, faced with overwhelming evidence, wanted to quibble, but he didn't know where to start.

Liu Yao did not give him a chance to quibble, and directly concluded: "The evidence shows that Ye Qingqing is not a prostitute, but was actually violated."

"And starting from Ye Qingqing's incident, all the tragedies that happened in Fu'an Salesian Bureau are inseparable from you, Fan Zhongqian!"

"If you hadn't engaged in favoritism and neglected your duties in the Ye Qingqing case, a series of subsequent events would not have happened!"

"So, you are the chief culprit in the case of Ye Qingqing and the Fu'an Salesian Bureau! The crimes involved are dereliction of duty and corruption!"

"The crime of dereliction of duty is a certainty and you can't argue with it! As for the crime of corruption, I will list it separately later and settle it with you!"

Fan Zhongqian opened his mouth, and blood dripped from his mouth down his chin.

Zhang Jingkun's voice was particularly stern, making people's hearts tremble: "Fan Zhongqian! The witnesses and physical evidence in Ye Qingqing's case are there. You are unforgivable!"

"Furthermore, the amount of money involved in the case involving the Fu'an Salesian Bureau is as high as hundreds of thousands of taels. You have committed a serious dereliction of duty. If you dare to make excuses, your crime will only be increased!"

When Fan Zhongqian heard this, he remained silent.

Regarding Ye Qingqing, he was indeed helpless.

But he still doesn't understand why he was only accused of dereliction of duty and not the mastermind?

Could it be that the Ninth Prince and the others had no evidence to prove that he was the mastermind, so they tried to convict him from the side?

That should be it, right?
After all, he has been cautious!
However, Liu Yao did not give him a chance to think for a long time and spoke again: "Now that the first matter is clear, let's talk about the second matter."

"You are the head of a state, but you didn't do anything to prevent or notice the corruption of your subordinates! Instead, you asked me to issue an order to arrest you!"

"Because of your negligence, thousands of refugees starved to death. Seven representatives of Silverfish have pleaded guilty to the crime of corruption they committed."

"In front of the evidence, I accuse you of neglecting your duties, which indirectly caused thousands of refugees to starve to death. Do you admit it?!"

Fan Zhizhou was still speechless.

The corruption case of seven officials has been thoroughly investigated by Zhang Jingkun.

The evidence was also solid, and he didn't want to argue again, lest he be slapped again.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Liu Yao assumed that he had given up on proving himself: "Since you have nothing to say, let me add one more charge to your crime of dereliction of duty!"

After the words fell, the evidence of the seven officials' confessions was distributed to the people.

Before the people could even count the numbers in the Fu'an Salesian Bureau's account books, one piece of evidence was being handed out one after another.

They were overwhelmed and couldn't accept it for a while.

Someone shouted: "These dog officials! They are greedy for so much!"

"Speaking of which, in the entire Jiangbei, only Licheng is relatively decent, but the entire Jiangbei is under the jurisdiction of Fan Zhizhou. Can I think that Fan Zhizhou has indeed neglected his duties and only cares about Licheng and not..."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other in shock.

There were whispers everywhere, which shows how much reaction this idea caused.

Bai Mingwei listened silently, with an almost undetectable arc on his lips. Everything that happens today has detailed regulations to follow.

According to the regulations, Fan Zhizhou will be pushed to a certain situation step by step.

He wants to get away with it, but there is no way!
At this time, Liu Yao was shocked: "Now, I will tell you about your third crime of dereliction of duty, which is also the most serious one!"

"Businessmen Jin Baocai, Xu Shouzhi, Lu Lifang, Jia Qing, Zhou Man, Li Cang, and Meng Cunshan took the lone refugees into a secluded courtyard of their residence and imprisoned them, leaving them to fend for themselves."

"The purpose is to make the refugees infected with the disease when they are extremely weak, thus causing a large-scale outbreak of the disease."

"In this way, they can sell the grain and medicinal materials they have hoarded at high prices and make huge profits."

"These people ignore the law and want to plunge Jiangbei into a plague disaster. Their intentions are to be punished! And they have always been in contact with you, but you did not take precautions and almost caused a disaster!"

Speaking of this, Liu Yao raised his voice: "Based on this matter, I accuse you of dereliction of duty. Do you admit it?!"

Fan Zhongqian shook the chain in his hand, and then handed over to Liu Yao to express his guilt.

"I have nothing to say!"

But his attitude is still very arrogant, as if a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

Now the merchant's conspiracy has been solved, and the epidemic has not occurred. This matter sounds terrible, but after all, it failed, and he will not bear too much responsibility for it.

His mouth was swollen, and it was obvious that he was unwilling to open his mouth to argue with Liu Yao on this matter.

Seeing this, Liu Yao leaned back and raised a cold arc at the corner of his lips: "You seem to recognize him easily."

At this time, a servant handed Fan Zhongqian the charges recorded by the scribe: "Master Fan, since you have no objection to the three counts of dereliction of duty accused by His Highness, please sign and seal it."

Fan Zhongqian's eyes fell on the black and white words on the paper and he quickly glanced at them.

The charges in the petition are no different from those in the Shicaitang trial, and there is no exaggeration or fiction.

But somehow, in a daze, he always felt that each stroke was like a cold sword, swiping at him mercilessly.

Cut his neck!

Break his bloodline!
Take his life!

"Master Fan, do you still have any objections to this?"

The officer spoke up, bringing him back from his thoughts.

Fan Zhongqian frowned and looked up at the three people in the hall.

An ominous premonition surged in his heart for no reason.

However, with his many years of experience as an official, he knew that the crimes on the paper would not kill him.

That alone was nothing more than a drizzle.

There is room for relaxation in everything, don't be in a hurry.

"No! I admit it!"

So, he no longer hesitated and confessed his crime in front of everyone.

Bai Ming moved his fingers slightly behind his back.

It was obvious that she was experiencing emotional turmoil.

Even Liu Yao, whose clenched hands hidden under his sleeves, also let go at this moment.

Just like his hanging heart, he finally calmed down a little.

Bai Yu's expression did not change, while Zhang Jingkun lowered his eyelids, with no discernible expression in the shadowed eyes.

Everyone has different thoughts, but the first step to capture Fan Zhongqian has been successful. This is an indisputable fact.

As long as he admits these crimes, he will not be able to escape!

Next, it's time to give him the fatal blow.
