Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Chapter 477: 478 [Scholar's True Colors]

Backstage, Qianlong looked at Xiang Nan and Du Xiaoyue biting their ears with a very intimate attitude, and couldn't help feeling a little angry.

"Master, don't be angry. The Yunzhou government has kindly entertained you. If Ji Xiaolan doesn't appreciate it, you will offend others." Seeing this, He Shen added fuel to the flames.

"Hmph! He Shen, I don't think Ji Xiaolan is acting just for fun." Qianlong gritted his teeth.

"Master, Ji Xiaolan is human too." Seeing this, He Shen said with a smile in his heart.

"Oh, this sentence is very popular now. How many corrupt officials I have dealt with, most of them are justified by these words. It's as if only these officials are human beings in the Qing Dynasty, and ordinary people are not human beings." Qianlong heard , sneered.

"Master, Ji Xiaolan can't really be blamed for this official social gathering and acting out every now and then." He Shen further poked the fire.

"Oh, are you speaking for him?" Qianlong glanced at him and said with increasing displeasure.

"No, master, the slave is just telling the truth." He Shen sighed, "An official also has his own difficulties."

...

At this moment, Du Xiaoyue stood up, raised her wine glass, came to Wu Zui, hooked his neck, and said softly, "Master Wu, Xiaoyue respects you~"

"Oh, thank you Miss Xiaoyue." Wu Zui saw Xiaoyue smiling like a flower, so beautiful that she couldn't be more charming.

Du Xiaoyue took the opportunity to strike, took off the token from his waist, and then returned to Xiang Nan's side.

...

"Master, I can assure you that this white lady is not the one you are looking for." He Shen leaned into Qianlong's ear and said.

"Well, she's too young?" Qianlong frowned and nodded in displeasure.

"No, no, no, look, she is the White Lady, she is clearly Pan Jinlian." He Shen sneered.

When Qianlong heard this, he also sneered.

...

Seeing that she got the token, Xiang Nan stood up immediately, "Master Wu, I'm too strong to drink, so I have to go first."

"My lord, you haven't drunk much." Wu Zui said with a smile.

"That's why everyone gets drunk if they don't get drunk." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

"Oh, good, good, come and prepare the sedan chair, and send Mr. Ji back to the Gongyuan." Wu Zui ordered immediately.

"Ah, don't bother everyone. It's enough for Miss Xiaoyue to take me back." Xiang Nan waved his hand and smiled.

Upon hearing this, Wu Zui laughed even more ambiguously.

Xiang Nan then left the government office with Du Xiaoyue.

...

"Heshen, Ji Xiaolan doesn't just play tricks every now and then, he clearly wants to do a fake show for real." Seeing this, Qianlong was furious.

"Master, don't be angry, be careful of revealing your identity." He Shen quickly persuaded.

"Huh, Ji Xiaolan is too outrageous, the true color of a scholar is actually a color!" Qianlong was panting with anger.

"Master's words are right, Ji Xiaolan is indeed a scholar!" He Shen immediately echoed.

"This hypocrite, hypocritical Taoism, I must punish him!" Qianlong fanned loudly.

...

Xiang Nan took Du Xiaoyue away from the government office, and when the sedan chair was halfway carried, he ordered the bearers to park the sedan chair.

"Okay, you all go back first. The moonlight is alluring tonight, I want to take a walk." Xiang Nan then ordered.

"My lord, this..." The bearers hesitated.

"Go back, go back." Xiang Nan waved his hand.

The bearers did not dare to disobey, so they had to carry the sedan chair back.

"Miss Xiaoyue, go and change into the servant's clothes. Let's go to the cell to see your sister." Xiang Nan then instructed Du Xiaoyue.

Du Xiaoyue nodded, and left quickly. After a while, she changed into men's clothes.

Xiang Nan immediately followed her to the prison.

"Hey, I see clearly, this is the token of Lord Wu, the magistrate." Du Xiaoyue held up the token high and said.

"Master Wu doesn't allow anyone to visit Mo Chou, why would he send someone here with an order now?" the cell boss asked in surprise when he saw it.

"You prison boss, you are really dedicated to your duty." Xiang Nan stepped forward with a smile when he heard this, "Well, if that's the case, then I don't care about this matter, so I can go back to sleep early.

Go and tell Wu Zui yourself, and let him interrogate the prisoner himself. Fukang'an is going to take off his top hat at that time, and he deserves it. And the prison boss, I'm afraid your 40-year-old board will be unavoidable. "

The cell boss saw that Xiang Nan was wearing the official uniform of a third-rank official, looking like a high-ranking official. Hearing his words again, I was immediately terrified.

"My lord, my lord, the villain is confused. Please go to jail, please go to jail!" He hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Bastard, why put me in jail? Are you cursing me?" Xiang Nan trained with a straight face on purpose.

The cell boss became more and more frightened, and quickly changed his words, "Please handle the case, please handle the case."

...

Xiang Nan then took Du Xiaoyue into the cell and saw Mo Chou who was imprisoned.

"Sister, I brought Mr. Ji to see you." Du Xiaoyue cried happily.

"Mr. Ji?! Are you really that Ji Dayan who pleaded for life and spoke for the common people?" Mo Chou looked at Xiang Nan and asked excitedly.

"It's guaranteed to be fake!" Xiang Nan showed his bags under the eyes and said.

"Sister, Mr. Ji is a good person. As soon as he heard that you had been wronged, he immediately agreed to come with me." Du Xiaoyue said happily.

"Mr. Ji, Mr. Ji, we expect you to come." Mo Chou knelt down excitedly.

"Girl please hurry up, don't be so polite. We don't have much time, let's make a long story short, tell me what wrong you have wronged." Xiang Nan said quickly.

Mo Chou nodded and started talking.

It turns out that since last year, there hasn't been a drop of rain in the local area. The farmland has been dry and cracked, with no grass growing and no harvest. Not only the disaster relief funds allocated by the imperial court were embezzled by local corrupt officials, but they also continued to levy exorbitant taxes, forcing the people to sell their children and women to make a living.

The starving people were so hungry that they could only rob grain carts, but they were falsely accused of being mobs and rebels, and none of them were taken to prison. Mo Chou escaped with her life and went to the government to complain about her grievances, but was falsely accused of being the leader of the rebels and sent to prison.

"It hurts nature, it's horrible! These corrupt officials should ransack their homes one by one! Use their heads to give justice to the common people!" Xiang Nan couldn't help being angry when he heard this.

Every penny and every grain of grain embezzled by these corrupt officials represents a human life, which is really abhorrent.

"Master Ji, what you said is good!" Du Xiaoyue picked Thumbs up and said, "Then you should quickly help us avenge our grievances."

"Oh, but I'm just a student of politics, and I can only manage scholars, not local people." Xiang Nan explained, "I want to kill thieves, but I can't bring them back to heaven, alas!"

"Master Ji, you are the most talented person in the world. You have no power, but you have intelligence." Du Xiaoyue said, "If you don't come out to uphold justice, the common people will have no hope."

"Mr. Ji, on behalf of the people in the disaster area, I beg you." Mo Chou said, kneeling down again.

"Don't, don't, please, please. I will help you with this job. You people still have loyalty, and I, Ji Xiaolan, can't be unjust." Xiang Nan nodded, "However, to punish these corrupt officials, There must be evidence."

"We have, I have an account book, which was recorded by a conscientious master Qian Liang, and it is full of corruption evidence from various prefectures and counties." Mo Chou said immediately.

"What a master! Ms. Mochou, may I ask what this righteous man's name is?" Xiang Nan asked, clasping his hands.

"His name is Huang Keming. He has recorded all the criminal evidence of corrupt officials." Mo Chou explained.
