Chapter 486 487 [Prison Disaster]
In the study in the backyard of the government office, Du Xiaoyue was reporting to Xiang Nan about the investigation of the White Snake.
"Okay, this white lady is really not simple." Xiang Nan frowned after hearing this.
When he watched "Iron Teeth Bronze Teeth Ji Xiaolan", he felt that this white lady was not simple.
Firstly, the Qing Dynasty was strict in ethics, and even women could not show their faces easily. How did the white lady start such a big business?
Secondly, corrupt officials were rampant in the Qing Dynasty. If the white lady does not have an umbrella, even if she can start a business, how can she guarantee her own interests?
So, according to Xiang Nan's guess, there must be someone with a hand and eye behind the white lady, so that she can do business all over the world and ensure that her business is safe and sound.
"Yes, Mr. Ji, no wonder she can swallow so much food. Millions of stones is really not a small amount." Du Xiaoyue nodded, "Mr. Ji, what should we do next?"
"The next step is to report to the emperor and let him come to the court." Xiang Nan nodded and said.
He has read all the accounts. How these corrupt officials embezzled the disaster relief funds, how to divide the stolen goods, how to balance the accounts... He has mastered every link one by one, which is enough to punish these corrupt officials.
"Okay, it's finally time to settle the accounts." Du Xiaoyue clapped her hands and laughed when she heard this.
…
"Who are you going to settle accounts with?" At this moment, a person asked, and then the door opened, and He Shen walked in with Fu Kang'an, Liu Changfu and others.
When Xiang Nan saw him, he smiled slightly and came forward to greet him, "Master He, Master Fu, you are here~"
"Ji Xiaolan, you are a commoner who dares to pretend to be an official of the imperial court, what crime should you deserve!" Fu Kang'an pointed at Xiang Nan with a halberd and shouted loudly.
"Hey, I have to make it clear. I never said that I was with the adults. These officials made a mistake." Xiang Nan laughed, "If you don't believe me, ask these officials, when did I claim that I was with the adults?" Shen?"
"Uh... this..." Liu Changfu and the others couldn't help but feel a little speechless.
Xiang Nan did not claim to be He Shen, so the impersonation of the imperial court official does not seem to be true.
"But you have the seal of Mr. He." The master frowned, "If you are not Mr. He, why are you taking his seal?"
"Yes, Ji Xiaolan, stealing the official seal is also a dead end!" Fu Kang'an shouted.
"Fu Kang'an, if you say you are stupid, you will have a runny nose!" Xiang Nan sneered, "Let Mr. He tell you, did I steal this official seal?"
Du Xiaoyue couldn't help laughing when she saw Xiang Nan scolding Fu Kang'an so much.
Fu Kang'an was furious, wishing he could step forward and fight Xiang Nan desperately.
He Shen stopped him.
He knew that his official seal was given to Xiang Nan by the emperor. It is useless to say more.
"Anyway, Mr. Ji, I'd better trouble you to stay in prison for a few days." He Shen smiled.
After finishing speaking, soldiers stepped forward to capture Xiang Nan.
"Whoever dares to touch Mr. Ji, pass me first." Du Xiaoyue immediately stepped forward and said.
"Miss Xiaoyue, don't be impulsive, I'm fine. Mr. He won't kill me, at most he will lock me up for a few days," Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled, "I will be released from prison in two days."
"Sir~" Du Xiaoyue was a little disbelieving.
"Mr. Ji is really smart." Seeing what Xiang Nan said, He Shen couldn't help but admire him.
He did not dare to kill Ji Xiaolan. Ji Xiaolan is the emperor's favorite minister, how could he kill him casually. It should be ordered by the emperor to kill him, otherwise, whoever kills him will have to pay with his life.
"Don't worry, Mr. Ji, I didn't intend to embarrass Miss Xiaoyue." He Shen smiled.
The emperor also has some thoughts on Du Xiaoyue, so naturally he will not destroy flowers with his hands.
…
Xiang Nan was immediately put in prison. Du Xiaoyue left Yancheng government office to discuss countermeasures with Mo Chou and Huang Keming.
When Mo Chou heard that Xiang Nan was arrested and imprisoned, he couldn't help but worry.
"Mochou, don't worry, I'll contact my brothers immediately and ask them to help find out about Mr. Ji." Huang Keming said immediately after hearing this.
They fought against corrupt officials for the people in the disaster area, and won the support of many people. It can be said that they are very popular in the Yancheng area, and it is easy to find someone to help.
"Besides, Mr. Ji was so calm when he was arrested. Presumably, it should be as he said, and there will be no danger. So let's not get confused." Huang Keming said again.
"Yes." Mo Chou nodded, "If those corrupt officials really want to kill Mr. Ji, even if we go to rob the execution ground, we have to save Mr. Ji."
"Yes." Huang Keming also nodded.
…
Yancheng government office.
"My lord, Ji Xiaolan has read all our books and has insight into all our secrets. In my opinion, if he doesn't do anything, let's kill him." Fukang An persuaded Heshen.
"Hey, it's easy to kill him, one jailer is enough." He Shen waved his hands and said, "But after killing him? How will the emperor explain? How will Shilin explain? Brother, don't worry, you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. "
"Then what are you going to do?" Fukang'an asked.
"First of all, we need to find the emperor. As long as we find the emperor, other things will be easy." He Shen waved his hand, "Send someone to look for it immediately."
"Okay." Fukang'an nodded.
…
After Fu Kang'an left, He Shen ordered people to prepare food and drinks, and then came to the prison in Yancheng.
In the prison of Yancheng, the petty officials are making things difficult for Xiang Nan.
"Ji Xiaolan, you have finally fallen into my hands, I don't think you are a good person." He said with a sneer, "Remember, you stepped on my foot the day before yesterday, which made me unable to straighten my back. Let me tell you, anyone who is sensible will kneel down to me immediately. Otherwise, I will ask you to taste the severe punishment."
"Haha, you are really a dog that bullies the good and fears the evil." Xiang Nan said with a slight smile, "Wag your tail and beg for mercy in front of high officials, and bark your teeth and claws in front of the common people.
A dog official like you really deserves to be cut to death. Let people see if you have a wolfish heart! "
"Bastard! You really think I dare not beat you!" The little official was so angry that he was scolded by Xiang Nan, and he was so angry that he said, "Come on, take him down for me!"
"Stop!" Someone outside the prison shouted.
"Hey, there are still people in the way." Hearing this, the clerk said angrily, "Get out, let me see, which **** is talking too much!"
As soon as he finished speaking, He Shen walked in with his servants.
When the little official saw it, his feet went limp in fright, and he quickly knelt down and said, "He...and your lord..."
"These people don't understand the rules, which surprised Mr. Ji." He Shen smiled at Xiang Nan, then looked at the little official, "Get out, all of you."
"Yes, my lord~" The little official hurriedly led the people out of the prison.
Seeing him in such a mess, Xiang Nan couldn't help laughing.
