Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

Crunch!

The coffin is wide open!

A white skeleton suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

At this time, Chen Mian's face was already filled with tears, and his pale expression was full of humiliation!

"Master Chen?"

Zhou Zheng didn't even look at the bones in the coffin. Instead, he stared at Chen Mian and continued to speak.

How could Chen Mian not hear what Zhou Zheng was saying? He was stunned for a moment and could only nod his head dully, then knelt down on his knees towards the bones in the coffin.

He wanted to refuse, even to resist.

But when the sound of Dai Mu's wailing and groaning on the verge of death came from not far away, Chen Mian finally suppressed the resentment in his heart.

Because he still wants to live!

"My son is not young, he is bothering his father."

Kneeling in front of the coffin, Chen Mian burst into tears, and immediately kowtowed three times in front of the coffin.

Every kowtow was clearly audible, making the surrounding ministers nervous.

Everyone involuntarily looked at Zhou Zheng, who had a calm face at this moment. In their eyes, Zhou Zheng was no longer graceful, let alone gentle, but a heinous devil in human skin!

Killing could only be done with a nod, but Zhou Zheng chose to use a method that made Chen Mian's life worse than death.

While everyone was shocked, Chen Mian had already taken out all the burial objects in the coffin one by one.

Although he was very careful, he still couldn't avoid touching the bones. Some fragile bones were broken into ashes directly in front of Chen Mian.

Finally, the funerary objects in the coffin were completely placed.

When he saw these things, Zhou Zheng, whose expression had not changed, had a rare tremor on his face.

Because there are so many funerary objects, they are so dazzling that they are too numerous to mention.

In addition to gold and silver jewelry, there are also some antiques, calligraphy and paintings, and foreign curiosities.

All in all, priceless.

As a prince, Zhou Zheng was also quite shocked by such a wealthy figure. He took a deep breath to suppress the fluctuations in his heart.

"He is just a governor, but he has such wealth."

"And this is just one of the many Chen family coffins. If this place is leveled, how many things will be inside?"

Thinking of this, the palms in Zhou Zheng's sleeves trembled involuntarily.

The Zhou Dynasty had seen for three hundred years that the domestic economy had developed extremely fast and the country was strong and the people were prosperous, but it was far from reaching this level.

"If one day I am short of money, this would be a good place to dig for treasure."

Thinking of this, Zhou Zheng glanced around with his peripheral vision.

There are at least as many tombs here as white ones, and they are all heads and important figures of the Chen family in the past.

Among the funerary objects...

A sense of greed quietly took root in Zhou Zheng's heart.

"Prince, please inspect!"

Just when Zhou Zheng was thinking about these burial objects, Chen Mian turned around and knelt in front of Zhou Zheng, biting his back teeth and solemnly urging him to come.

One more minute of delay and his father's bones will be exposed for one more minute!

"No need, I trust Mr. Chen."

However, Zhou Zheng's answer was beyond everyone's expectations.

Even Chen Mian himself had his eyes wide open with a look of disbelief!

what is this?

This is obviously playing with him!

Even Gong Tan's pretty eyebrows were tightly knitted together. Obviously, in Gong Tan's opinion, Zhou Zhen's kind of teasing was over the top!

Feeling the changes in the emotions of the people around her, Gong Tan took a deep breath and stared at the surroundings cautiously. If there was any change, she could react immediately.

"If Your Highness has any objections to your subordinates and is dissatisfied with them, you can order them to be beheaded, but there is no need to use this method to humiliate your subordinates and let them dig their graves and expose their bones!"

Sure enough, Chen Mian finally couldn't help the anger in his heart. He raised his head, his eyes already filled with bloodshot eyes.

As the prefect of Fancheng, he has a large number of troops and is a confidant of the second prince!

How could he bear this tone!

Even the officers and generals behind Chen Mian were ready to make a move, with angry expressions on their faces, obviously very dissatisfied with Zhou Zheng.

If Zhou Zheng does not give a reasonable explanation today, they will jointly file a letter to impeach Zhou Zheng!

"You want me to give you an explanation?!"

"Chen Mian, you are so brave!"

Seeing that Chen Mian finally couldn't contain his inner anger, Zhou Zheng sneered and shouted in a deep voice.

"I need to explain to you what I am doing?"

"Who do you think you are!?"

Zhou Zheng collapsed in his stride and kicked Chen Mian hard in the chest.

The huge force caught Chen Mian off guard and his entire body was kicked several feet away, and then his body rolled on the ground several times before stopping.

But before Chen Mian could recover, Zhou Zheng kicked out again, and this time, the tip of his toe landed on Chen Mian's face, slamming his entire head to the ground!

Hiss, hiss! ! !

The sudden change caught everyone by surprise.

Everyone took a breath of cold air, and some even turned pale, their eyes were dizzy, and they almost fainted!

This is the prince! ?

What a rude and riotous behavior! ?

"Do you believe it or not, I will kill you in public today!?"

"Even one sentence from me can completely wipe out the entire Chen family in Fancheng?!"

When Zhou Zheng lowered his head, his face had long lost the previous warmth and calmness, and instead had a gloomy and terrifying man-eating cold look on his face!

And this sharp shout made all the officials and generals around them tremble violently, and then they all knelt down and worshiped Zhou Zheng!

Because they know that what Zhou Zheng said is true!

Even if Chen Mian holds military power, even if this place is far away from the capital, even if Fancheng is Chen Mian's territory!

But so what?

Zhou Zheng is the prince of the current dynasty and the legitimate son of the Holy Emperor!

It is said that he is Chen Mian, so what if he makes the whole Fancheng bleed like a river?

"Your Highness... please forgive me!"

His face was severely stepped on by the soles of his feet, but what appeared on Chen Mian's face was not anger and resentment, but panic and panic!

He far underestimated Zhou Zheng's strength!

He didn't even expect that Zhou Zheng would dare to deny him face like this!

A dignified official was like an ant in Zhou Zheng's eyes!

At this moment, Chen Mian was finally afraid!

This kind of fear is not a temporary solution, but a fear that spreads from the depths of the soul!

"You want a reason, I will satisfy you today."

"How much is the annual salary for a mere prefect?"

"The value of the sacrifices taken out of the tomb coffins alone is not enough even if you add up to hundreds of years of salary!"

"Tell me, where do these things come from?"

Zhou Zheng's voice exploded on the scene like a thunderbolt from the blue, and everyone was stunned on the spot!

These funerary objects are worth millions of silver!

They all understand how to come here!

At this moment, the people who originally had some ideas just obeyed!

Once the investigation continues, who can escape unscathed?

Because this is no longer as simple as corruption and bribery!

Quiet!

Terribly quiet!

Even Chen Mian couldn't help but swallow his saliva, his pupils flashing in the depths of his eyes: "Did His Highness get the news?"

When this thought came to his mind, Chen Mian felt weak all over!

"I am not interested in money."

Just when Chen Mian was feeling extremely frightened, Zhou Zheng's conversation changed slightly.

"But in the mass graves in the north of the city, there are dozens of corpses lying in various directions. I want you to give an explanation!"

Mass graves in the north of the city? !

Corpse?

At this moment, Chen Mian suddenly woke up!

At this moment, he finally understood why Zhou Zheng would target him and humiliate him in this way!
