"Minister Qin's son, Qin Li, mined military mines without authorization, causing a large loss of Xinggong's wealth and resulting in serious consequences."
An inspector from the Ministry of Supervision raised a question that caused a huge sensation.
Then, various pieces of evidence were presented one after another in great detail.
Qin Zhong is not here. He is dealing with important matters in the department and has no time to argue in the Star Tower.
When he learned that he was attacked, he immediately communicated with Qin Li.
"What did you do behind my back?"
A dissolute voice came from the other end of the communicator: "Dad, what's wrong? I'm busy here. Let's talk tonight."
There was the sound of women laughing, and more than one.
Qin Zhong asked angrily, "Did you mine military ore?"
There are a lot of resources in the starry sky, but no matter how many there are, they cannot withstand the long-term use of the Star Palace, especially the legion's consumption is even greater.
Therefore, many resource stars are protected as military mines, and civilian mining is strictly prohibited.
Incidents of stealing military mines have occurred before, and all were severely punished.
Qin Li was a little flustered when he heard Qin Zhong's question.
"Dad, who told you that? How could that be possible? My company is mining legitimate planets."
"Humph, you've already been reported to the higher-ups, and you're still lying to me?"
Qin Zhong hung up the phone and thought about how to deal with the matter.
On the other side, Chen An learned more detailed information through Fu Yao.
Qin Li did more than just collect military minerals. He even traded slaves and sold military supplies, and his business was huge.
Because he was so rich, he bought himself a private planet where he ate, drank, and had fun, living a very comfortable life.
After thinking for a long time, Chen An decided to give the investigation materials to Zhou Yao, but not in his name.
"Qin Zhong is Yu Hong's right-hand man. If he is defeated, it will be a huge blow to Yu Hong."
The next day, an inspector from the Supervision Department submitted the information to Zhou Yao.
Zhou Yao was overjoyed and immediately began a comprehensive investigation of Qin Li.
Three days later, Qin Li was formally arrested, Qin Zhong was temporarily suspended for providing protection, and Deputy Minister Li Zhao became acting minister.
Li Zhao was still Yu Hong's man, so the military as a whole was not greatly affected.
Since then, the situation has continued to escalate, with impeachments against ministers coming one after another.
The fighting on Tianwu Continent spread to all directions, and each star region and even each planet began to fight openly and secretly.
The star pirates gradually became active and launched various assassinations against star leaders or governors.
Because they have the final vote!
At the same time, the Split Star Palace and the Mad Blood Star Palace took this opportunity to exert pressure and launched a large-scale invasion.
"This will cause big problems. We can't delay any longer." Chen An expressed his concern.
The Xing Palace is facing internal and external troubles, and it will collapse if he is not careful, and he will not be able to control the situation.
Just when Chen An was preparing to accelerate secretly, another major event suddenly broke out.
Early morning of January 11, 180 years of the Recovery Calendar.
The Star Tower Guards announced that Palace Master Jiang Li passed away at two o'clock and his soul returned to the sea of stars.
It was still dark, but everyone was awake.
The Tianwu Continent was in turmoil, and countless people were at a loss.
The Palace Master who has ruled the Star Palace for tens of thousands of years just died like that?
Did the fifth-level star-crosser die so easily and casually?
All parties expressed doubts about it, and countless officials took spacecraft to the Star Tower, but were stopped outside.
The Star Tower Guards have extremely high authority, and even the Deputy Palace Master cannot overstep his authority.
"The Palace Master was in good spirits, it's impossible for him to have died suddenly. Someone must have been causing trouble."
"Did the Palace Master leave any words? For example, who do you think is the new Palace Master?"
Although Jiang Li only has the right to nominate, his words can often have a revolutionary impact.
Zhou Yao, Yu Hong and others arrived one after another, followed closely by ministers from various departments.
Chen An also went to watch the fun and met Mu Lin on the way.
"Minister Xia, what do you think about this?" Mu Lin asked.
Chen An replied, "The Palace Master has toiled for the Tianwu Clan his entire life, and it's time for him to rest. Alas, it's a pity that he has no children."
In fact, according to Luo Yu's prophecy, Jiang Li was not dead at all and would appear again later.
Mu Lin sighed, "Yes, he dedicated his entire life to the Tianwu Clan. The hateful thing is that the people below only care about fighting and slaughtering each other, completely forgetting about external threats. Minister Xia, what do you think of Zhou Yao?"
There was a hidden meaning in his words. Chen An replied, "Deputy Palace Master Zhou is dedicated to governing the country and works tirelessly without complaint. He is our role model. However..."
"But what?"
"However, he is too power-hungry, which may not be beneficial to the development of Xinggong."
Mu Lin nodded and asked, "The Palace Master nominated three people, including you. Why did you refuse?"
Chen An said: "I know my own abilities, and I don't have the ability to be the Palace Master. You can actually fight for it. Whether it's power or qualifications, you are not inferior to the two deputy Palace Masters."
"You're kidding. My abilities are limited, and I can barely manage the garrison. Minister Xia, don't give up when you have the chance. What if something goes wrong?"
As they were talking, they arrived outside the Star Tower.
Spaceships were hovering everywhere, and the public screen was filled with constant noise.
Soon after, the Star Tower Guards released more information to prove that the Palace Master had indeed passed away.
Death certificate, verification information from various devices, and an image of Jiang Li's lifeless body.
Suddenly, there was a cry outside the Star Tower, most of them were heartbroken.
Chen An found it boring, so he blocked the public screen and waited for further developments.
Everyone cried for more than half an hour, and someone suggested that a new palace master should be appointed as soon as possible to stabilize the situation.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Mu Lin stepped forward to take charge of the situation and suggested starting a three-day voting session for the Palace Master selection.
"The Garrison, the Ministry of Justice, and the Ministry of Information and Network Security will strictly supervise the entire process. There will absolutely be no cases of missing votes, swiping votes, or altering votes."
According to the rules, the first day is for star masters from all over the country to vote.
The next day, mid-level officials such as the Governor, Chief of Military Affairs, or high-level Star Envoys will vote.
The third day is the day for the various departments and legions of Tianwu Continent to vote.
Therefore, Chen An has nothing to do for the time being. He will return to the villa before dawn and might as well play more games with Fei Yi.
"Brother, can't ordinary people vote?" Fei Yi asked.
Chen Andao said, "It seemed possible before, but later we discovered that if ordinary people also participated in the voting, the amount of data would be too large and easy to manipulate. So we changed it later."
The higher the level, the more votes one has. Chen An is a minister and has a thousand votes.
"It officially starts tomorrow, and it's going to be bloody."
As Chen An expected, the day before the confirmation voting process was about to begin, assassinations in various places became more frequent.
Because the Star Lord is dead, only the acting Star Lord can take over.
As for which camp the proxy star master will stand on, both parties need to play their own game.
Later, Chen An received a secret communication from Xiao Zhen.
"Boss, who should we vote for?"
Commanders all have voting rights, and Xiao Zhen has 100 votes.
Chen An said: "Vote for whichever camp you are in, no need to ask me."
Many passengers have the right to vote, but generally they tend to favor Zhou Yao.
After giving instructions to his own people, Chen An received an urgent reminder from Fu Yao.
The passengers who were released at the beginning sent back information.
