As Zhao Feng shifted his gaze.
Everyone’s eyes simultaneously followed suit.
All focused on Wang Wan.
In an instant.
Wang Wan’s old face changed, a panic arose in his heart, and he instinctively turned his head away.
It seed that even if Zhao Feng were to initiate an impeachnt, he couldn’t have imagined it would be against him.
But Zhao Feng looked intently and smirked coldly: "Pri Minister Wang, what are you hiding from?"
"What do you an, General?"
"Could you possibly impeach this old man?"
"I have served as Pri Minister for many years, diligently and carefully, and I haven’t committed any mistakes." Wang Wan frowned and said loudly.
With the deanor of an upright and incorruptible official.
"Diligently and carefully, you say?"
"You haven’t committed mistakes?"
Zhao Feng laughed, a cold sneer appeared.
Then he turned around and shouted loudly: "The person I wish to impeach is none other than Wang Wan."
As soon as these words fell.
The entire court was in shock.
Everyone looked at Zhao Feng in disbelief.
Impeaching Wang Wan, the Left Minister of the current dynasty.
What audacity!
Moreover, historically, it has always been the civil officials who impeach, and rarely do military commanders make any impeachnt, yet Zhao Feng, a military official, dared to impeach the head of the civil officials.
This is indeed an eye-opener.
"What on earth is Zhao Feng trying to do?"
"Impeach Pri Minister Wang? What grounds could he have for impeachnt?"
"It seems that Zhao Feng knows Pri Minister Wang blocked his promotion to Grand Commandant, and now he’s using this impeachnt as revenge."
"However, impeachnt or not, this seems to be Zhao Feng venting his anger."
"Impeaching Pri Minister Wang, how difficult it is."
"Although Zhao Feng is skilled in commanding troops, he ultimately doesn’t understand the art of being an official, or the ways of the court."
...
Many ministers speculated, most with a mindset of watching a drama.
After all, as the Pri Minister of the current dynasty, if Wang Wan truly had any acts of corruption or lawlessness, he would have already covered his tracks long ago, so how could he possibly make a mistake?
Everyone in the court is a sly fox.
Naturally, they all understood this.
"General Zhao."
"In the court, with the Great King present, refrain from speaking recklessly."
"Baseless allegations, according to Qin Law, can lead to punishnt." Wang Wan shouted coldly at Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng completely ignored Wang Wan.
Instead, he turned again, facing Ying Zheng, and shouted loudly: "I wish to impeach Wang Wan on four counts of cris."
"Firstly, embezzlent of the state’s lands."
"Secondly, trafficking official slaves."
"Thirdly, nepotism."
"Fourthly, colluding with foreign states for smuggling."
Zhao Feng’s voice resonated through the great hall.
These four charges gathered the attention of all the civil and military officials present.
Moreover, these four charges were very specific.
Zhao Feng’s expression was also unusually serious, without any fear.
A panic arose in Wang Wan’s heart.
Concerning these four charges, Wang Wan’s heart naturally knew of them, and what he had done exceeded just these four.
But these four were the most severe.
"General Zhao."
"I reiterate."
"Framing the current Pri Minister is a grave cri."
"Even if you are the Protector-General of Qin, even if you are a ritorious official of Qin, you cannot speak recklessly." Wang Wan angrily pointed at Zhao Feng and shouted.
"Who says I have no evidence?"
"Wang Wan."
"Today, your good days are over."
Zhao Feng sneered.
Then.
"I have already prepared evidence for Wang Wan’s four charges, all of which are now under the custody of my trusted aides outside the hall. With just one command from the Great King, I can have the Imperial Censor examine this evidence." Zhao Feng shouted.
From a high position.
Seeing Zhao Feng so earnest, and having prepared evidence.
Ying Zheng also understood that this ti Zhao Feng was serious.
He was determined to deal with Wang Wan.
"Could he really have evidence?"
"Impossible."
"I entrusted those matters to the most trustworthy people, and many things I did personally. It couldn’t have been caught."
"Fake, it must be fake."
"Zhao Feng must be deliberately trying to intimidate , trying to make make a mistake."
At this mont.
Wang Wan still didn’t believe Zhao Feng had any evidence against him.
Imdiately.
Wang Wan also stood in the great hall and bowed to Ying Zheng: "Great King."
"I have been loyal to the country, without a hint of selfishness."
"Although General Zhao Feng has achieved great military rit, this baseless impeachnt deems guilty."
"I am wronged."
"I urge the Great King to judiciously discern the truth."
Saying this.
Wang Wan even put on a face full of grievance and indignation.
"I second the motion."
"Pri Minister Wang is devoted to Qin, exhaustively working for Qin, how can he be frad?"
"I also ask the Great King to uphold justice for Pri Minister Wang."
As Wang Wan stepped forward.
More than a dozen ministers stood out in agreent.
A display of clear support for Wang Wan.
"Rest assured."
"Many of you are involved."
"Once the evidence is revealed, all of you will be caught at once."
Zhao Feng turned his head and glanced at Wang Wan and the others, with the look of a cat toying with a mouse.
Then.
Zhao Feng no longer paid attention, just waiting for Ying Zheng to speak.
"Could the boy really have gotten Wang Wan’s evidence?" Nearby, Wang Jian was still watching the situation unfold.
Though Zhao Feng casually ntioned it the day before, when asked, Zhao Feng simply said to watch the drama tomorrow, Wang Jian was quite anxious.
Of course.
Not too worried.
Regardless of Zhao Feng being the King of Qin’s eldest son, just based on Zhao Feng’s military rits, even if the evidence didn’t exist, at most it would result in a re reprimand.
There wouldn’t be much impact.
Instead, Wang Wan and his ilk would be disgusted.
At this mont.
Both Zhao Feng and Wang Wan awaited the words of Ying Zheng from his throne.
And at that mont.
After pondering for a mont.
Ying Zheng looked towards Zhao Feng: "Do you truly have evidence?"
"I wouldn’t dare deceive the Great King."
"With just one command, my few trusted aides can bring the evidence into the hall."
"And at that mont, the Great King can order the Imperial Censor to verify its authenticity." Zhao Feng imdiately replied.
"Bring it in."
