Sun Guoxiang, former deputy head of the Standing Committee of the Liaoning Provincial People's Congress, was accused of taking 97.65 million yuan ($14 million) in bribes by the Langfang Intermediate People's Court in Hebei province on Thursday.
Sun pleaded guilty and confessed at court.
Prosecutors from the Langfang procuratorate said from 2008 to 2018 Sun profited from his positions, including Party chief and mayor of Liaoning's Panjin city, by assisting enterprises in obtaining bank loans and special funds.
The court said sentencing will be announced at a later date.
