Chapter 2328 2330【Bao Daren】
Xiang Nan put away the parts and then came out, "Xiao Liu, where are they now?"
“Brothers from Zuojiazhuang said that they just got off the official road and are on their way here.” Yan Xiaoliu explained.
Xiang Nan nodded after hearing this.
Tongfu Inn is the largest inn within a hundred miles. Bao Daren was rich and lived in luxury, so it was not surprising that he came to stay here.
"Okay, I''ll be there right away." Xiang Nan said immediately, and then led Xiao Liu out of Qixia Town and met him along the official road.
After walking for more than two miles, I saw a short, fat man with a greasy appearance and a tall, thin man holding a sword, sitting in a large carriage, heading towards Qixia Town.
Xiang Nan’s eyes suddenly lit up.
?These two people are exactly the Bao Daren and Zhantang he is looking for.
Xiang Nan immediately stepped forward and listened to Bao Daren teaching Zhantang, "Oh, Zhantang, you should hire a better car. Look at this shabby car, it doesn''t even have a hood. I''m so so I haven’t been in such a bad car for many years.”
"I''m paying a lot of money, so please be considerate. It''s good to have such a car in Zhendian like this." Zhantang persuaded.
“Hmph, you are so unfavorable in doing things. When I take office, I will demote you three levels in a row.” Bao Daren snorted coldly.
“You made a mistake, boss! You are the Ministry of Rites, I am the Six Gates, and you promote me, what the hell!” Zhantang curled his lips when he heard this.
"Ghost?! Where is the ghost?" When Master Bao heard this, he immediately looked around in fear.
"Don''t look, the ghost is here." Xiang Nan used Qing Kung Fu, and suddenly he was in front of them. His movement was so erratic and his speed was so fast, it was like a ghost, which scared Bao Daren.
The exhibition hall was a little surprised.
Just as he was about to take action, Xiang Nan had already stretched out **** to immobilize the two of them.
Subsequently, Xiang Nan called Yan Xiaoliu to get in the car, and then ordered the driver to drive the car to the county government office.
…
“Brother Li, why did you arrest them?” Yan Xiaoliu asked in confusion.
"Because they are prisoners." Xiang Nan explained.
As he spoke, he reached out and took out from Lord Bao''s arms the receipt that Duke Cao gave him when he bought an official position, as well as the small gourd hanging around his neck. Then he took out the book "Shilang Bao''s Everlasting Words to Awaken the World" from Zhantang''s arms.
The "Eternal Words of Bao Shilang Awakening the World" contains the correspondence between Eunuch Cao and him, and the small gourd contains developing powder. Only by applying it will the letters show their handwriting.
“Did they make a mistake?” Yan Xiaoliu asked in confusion.
"I can''t tell you now. After a few days, when the truth comes to light, I will tell you the truth." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
When Yan Xiaoliu heard this, he couldn''t help but purse his lips.
The carriage then drove all the way to the county government office.
Xiang Nan moved Bao Daren and Zhan Tang off their horses, and asked Xiao Liu to take people to watch them first, while he went to Houya to find Magistrate Lou.
"Uncle, I caught a big fish, look." Xiang Nan reported the letters between Bao Daren and Eunuch Cao, as well as the receipts that Eunuch Cao gave him.
??? Magistrate Lou was shocked after reading it.
?These evidences are very conclusive, enough to confirm Cao Gonggong''s bad behavior of selling his official position and Bao Daren''s bad behavior of buying an official position with money.
??I really didn’t expect that he would be so evil-minded that he would even dare to sell his official position as a third-rank official in the imperial court. He is simply lawless.
"Uncle, I have captured the man. Do you want to put him on trial?" Xiang Nan asked.
"Trial, must be tried." Lou Zhixian nodded, and then asked curiously, "My nephew, how do you know?"
"Oh, my informant told me. He said that the two of them were acting suspiciously and sneakily, not like good people, so I went to investigate and found these things on them." Xiang Nan said nonsensically.
“That’s it, nephew, you have made a great contribution this time.” Lou Zhixian said with satisfaction.???…
Subsequently, Lou magistrate was promoted to court.
Xiang Nan explained the acupoints of Kaitang and Bao Daren, and then brought the two of them to the hall.
?After Bao Daren entered the hall, he did not kneel down, but looked at Magistrate Lou proudly.
But Zhantang was quite smart and knelt down.
"Who in the hall, why don''t you kneel down when you see me?" When Lou Zhixian saw this, he clapped his hands and said in shock.
“I kneel to you?! I am the newly appointed minister of etiquette of the imperial court and a third-rank official. You want me to kneel to you and have your big dream.” Bao Daren sneered.
Seeing this, Xiang Nan stepped forward and kicked him in the socket of his knees, causing him to kneel down with a grunt. Then another finger froze his lower body, making him unable to stand up even if he wanted to fight.
"Asshole, the evidence that you united with Eunuch Cao of Dongchang to buy and sell officials is in the hands of this county. How dare you claim to be an official of the imperial court in front of this county?" Lou Zhixian took out the letters between Bao Daren and Eunuch Cao, as well as the letters between Cao and Cao. Father-in-law''s receipt said.
When Bao Daren saw him, his arrogance suddenly dropped by three points.
He didn’t expect that his biggest secret would be exposed so easily. It almost gave him a nightmare.
"Tell me how you got involved with Eunuch Cao and how you participated in buying an official position. Tell me honestly." Magistrate Lou said again.
?Bao Daren saw that the matter was exposed and could not be denied, so he had no choice but to tell what happened.
When Lou Zhixian heard this, his eyes were filled with tears, and he was furious. He slapped the gavel and shouted, "Let him draw the seal~"
Subsequently, Bao Daren signed and stamped his signature.
…
"Who are you?" Lou Zhixian then asked Zhan Tangdao.
"Master, please step aside. I have something important to report," Zhantang said.
Zhixian Lou was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xiang Nan.
Xiang Nan nodded, "Sir, just listen to what he has to say."
The Lou Magistrate then asked all the government officials and masters to withdraw, leaving only Xiang Nan, Lou Magistrate, and Zhantang in the hall.
"To be honest, sir, I belong to the Jin Yiwei." Zhan Tang took out his sign from his arms and said, "Two years ago, I was ordered to go undercover in Dongchang to monitor Eunuch Cao''s every move, and finally found out that he was selling his official position. .
Bao Daren is one of them. Therefore, I took the initiative to apply for escorting him to Beijing, and planned to hand it over to the commander of the Jinyi Guards, who would make the decision. Unexpectedly, he intercepted me as soon as I arrived here. Brother, how do you know? "
He looked at Xiang Nan doubtfully, puzzled.
? Along the way, he was very careful, tried to keep a low profile, and never caused trouble. Unexpectedly, something happened.
"I''m sorry, I''m from six doors. We''ve been keeping an eye on this case for a long time." Xiang Nan said with a slight smile.
When Zhantang heard this, he was immediately surprised.
??Lou Zhixian inspected the brand and confirmed it to be genuine.
But he didn''t have a good impression of Jin Yiwei.
?Because Jin Yiwei was arrogant and domineering, he did all kinds of bad things, he liked to make up accusations, and framed Zhongliang, and he harmed many people. Moreover, it had been competing for power and profit with Dongchang for a long time, and the fight was fierce, which also caused considerable losses to the court.
"Okay, please step back first." Lou Zhixian then said, "I will report this matter to the superiors."
“This…” Zhantang naturally refused.
??He has been following this case for half a year, and he is planning to use it to bring down Eunuch Cao of Dongchang. Now that Lou Zhixian is taking over, isn''t his work in vain? !
