Chapter 560: Preparing for funeral arrangements and finding a way out of desperate situations
At this time, a handsome young man wearing a white robe walked in. This man was Fulin'an's eldest son Fu Tianchen. He was appointed as the Minister of Rites, responsible for the diplomatic affairs of the Daduan Dynasty and receiving envoys from various countries.

He looked at the mess on the ground, patted Fuquan's shoulder lightly, and said with a smile: "Fuquan, it's not your fault this time. My father is not targeting you! Let's take everyone down first!"

Fuquan was granted amnesty, and he quickly kowtowed to Futianchen three times before leading the others to retreat.

Fulin'an's expression softened slightly and he asked, "Has the investigation into that matter been clear?"

"Dad, the child has been found out! The man named Zheng Lili under Lin Yun left Beijing secretly and returned to Haocheng, Fengyang County to search for the autographed letter that dad originally wrote to the Great Khan of the Panda Tribe!"

Fulin'an hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stood up and cursed: "Damn Sun Xing, you are so brave, you dare to hide the letter secretly behind my back! I will cut you to death with a thousand knives!"

Fu Tianchen sighed: "Dad, please calm down! At this moment, we can't make any mistakes! It seems that the emperor is serious this time! On the contrary, Lin Yun is just an agent promoted by the emperor. ! Don’t worry, I have sent people to intercept and kill me on the way. Regardless of whether the letter still exists or not, Zheng Lili will definitely die!"

Fulin'an had a serious look on his face, looked at him suddenly, and said, "Tianchen, you should leave Beijing immediately and wait for dad's next arrangement!"

Fu Tianchen smiled bitterly and said: "Is it possible that the whole world is not the king's land? Even if the child escapes, where can he escape? I'm afraid that if the child makes any move, the emperor will know it immediately!"

"It doesn't matter! Dad plans to go directly to the palace to face the saint at dawn and have a complete showdown! Even if it takes his life, he will try his best to gain political capital for you! As long as nothing happens to you, there is still hope for our Fu family to rise again!"

Fu Tianchen knelt on the ground with a pop and said, "Dad, things are far from the worst yet. We can go talk to Lin Yun. Maybe everything can turn around!"

Fulin'an sneered: "Looking for him? This guy is very cruel and ruthless, don't expect him to be merciful!"

"Okay, be obedient! You must leave Beijing before dawn! Go!"

At this moment, Fulin'an had already prepared for the worst. He knew very well what kind of character the emperor was. If he had not made up his mind, the assassination of the fifth prince would never have passed lightly.

There must be a huge crisis hidden behind this matter.

Moreover, he had already learned that Lin Yun had obtained a list of his party members from the Fifth Prince, and what awaited him next would be a violent blow.

Since he can't stand up, he can only retain his strength as much as possible.

He can be sacrificed, but the Fuji family must not be buried with him.

Fu Tianchen let out a long sigh and kowtowed three times to Fulin'an before reluctantly leaving.

He wasn't sure if their father and son would have a chance to meet again after this separation.

But Fu Tianchen already hated Lin Yun deeply.

If Lin Yun hadn't been clinging to the Fu family, his father wouldn't have prepared for the worst.

He knew very well the weight of the secret letter written to the Great Khan of the Panda tribe. Once it was publicly exposed, the Fuji family would be completely ruined.

In the early morning court, Ye Ruhui used the list given by Lin Yun to include ten officials under Fulin'an.

The reason was corruption and bribery, and collusion with local officials.

Once upon a time, Ye Ruhui was regarded as a joke by civil and military officials because the emperor never really punished any official.

But this time it's different.

Major events have occurred one after another in the past few days, and all civil and military officials have noticed an unusual atmosphere.

Especially Lin Yun targeted Fulin'an everywhere, and the struggle between them had become public. And Ye Ruhui is Lin Yun's father-in-law, and the people involved are all members of Fulin'an's gang, which can't help but make everyone imagine.

Sure enough, in order to cooperate with Lin Yun's actions, the emperor directly ordered the arrest of the nine officials. Only the missing Cui Mingchong escaped.

However, Fulin'an, as the person involved, was indifferent. He no longer had the mind to care about outsiders, and his mind was full of the next showdown with the emperor.

As for the Eight Sage Kings and Meng Yuan, they are just bystanders now, and what happened has little to do with them.

After retreating from the court, in the imperial study.

The emperor was reviewing the memorial when the eunuch in charge suddenly came over and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Fulin'an Fuzhong Hall is here to see you!"

The emperor raised his eyebrows, put down the zhezi in his hand, and said, "He wants to see you? What's the matter?"

"I don't know, but I see that Fu Zhongtang doesn't look good, so there must be something urgent!"

The emperor smiled contemptuously, nodded and said: "Xuan!"

"Yes!"

The eunuch in charge then trotted out of the palace and whispered: "Please invite me to Fuzhong Hall, the emperor is waiting for you inside!"

Fulin'an nodded, then stood up and walked into the hall.

"Long live my emperor! Long live!"

The emperor nodded and said: "There is no need to be polite in Fuzhongtang, get up and talk!"

Fulin'an stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty, I take the initiative to plead guilty to you this time!"

The emperor was playful: "Please forgive me? Why should Fuzhongtang apologize? If you have any unspeakable secrets, you can just say it! Maybe I can help you solve it!"

He was very proud of himself. Since he came to the throne, he has been suppressed by these powerful ministers. In name, he is the king of a country, but in fact, these powerful ministers have been secretly controlling the government by relying on the merits of supporting him. Not happy.

Fulin'an took a deep breath and said: "I have understood the emperor's determination to rectify the government. The old minister is the number one criminal in the Daduan Dynasty! Therefore, the emperor does not need to worry about the old minister. The old minister is willing to plead guilty and obey the law! He will die without death. blame!"

The emperor stood up and walked down the stage, and said with a smile: "Where do you start talking about Fuzhongtang? I do intend to rectify the government, but it is not the right thing to do. If Fuzhongtang has not made any mistakes, what is there to worry about?" "

Fulin'an knelt on the ground with a bang and said: "I am guilty! Not only did I form a party for personal gain, but I also secretly colluded with a foreign country. It is an unpardonable crime! I hope the emperor will grant me death! In this way, I can feel better!"

The emperor said with great interest: "Fu Zhongtang took the initiative to plead guilty. Can you provide evidence?"

What he wanted was solid evidence, not just letting Fulinan talk nonsense.

Otherwise, if his name is not justified and his words are not justified, he will leave an excuse for the officials in the court to say that he harmed the court officials.

And this is what Fulinan wants to see most.

At this time, Fulin'an said meaningfully: "Didn't the emperor already assign Lin Yun to investigate? I believe the emperor already knew it! It is not a pity for the old minister to die, but I hope the emperor can keep my Fu family and let the dog take the old minister's place!"

"Haha!!" The emperor raised his head and laughed: "I said Fulin'an, you really have a good plan! Knowing that you are going to fall, you want to arrange your funeral in advance? But I ask you, why? Your son is indeed very good. Excellent, but how do I know if he was involved in those dirty deals of yours, Fulin'an?"
