"Miss Mochou, how could such important evidence fall into your hands?" Xiang Nan asked knowingly.
"This..." Mochou was a little embarrassed for a moment.
"Hey, sister is his unmarried wife." Du Xiaoyue said with a smile.
Xiang Nan nodded and said approvingly, "The virtuous couple prayed for the people, which is worthy of Ji Xiaolan's admiration! Please accept the next gift!"
Xiang Nan bowed to the ground sincerely. Mo Chou and Huang Keming, regardless of their own lives and deaths, took great risks for the people in the disaster area and sacrificed their lives for righteousness. They can truly be called righteous men!
"Mr. Ji, you are so ashamed!" Mochou quickly waved his hand and said, "Xiaoyue, please take Mr. Ji to get the account book quickly."
"I understand, sister." Seeing Xiang Nan respect Mochou so much and not hesitate to give him gifts, Du Xiaoyue also felt that he was a really good person and had a very good impression of him.
"Okay, without further ado, let's go first." Xiang Nan immediately said to Mochou, "Miss Mochou, the affairs of the people in the disaster area are left to me. Even if I, Ji Xiaolan, don't give up my official uniform, I will still ask for it for them. Get justice!"
"On behalf of the people in the disaster area, I would like to thank Master Ji!" Mochou said with emotion after hearing what he said.
…
After getting out of the prison, Du Xiaoyue took Xiang Nan to get the account books.
Xiang Nan knew that someone must be watching him at this moment, so he took Du Xiaoyue around the city.
"Master Ji, why are you taking me around? Aren't we going to get the account book?" Du Xiaoyue asked doubtfully.
"Shh, keep your voice down. Haven't you noticed yet? Someone is following us." Xiang Nan reminded.
"Really, where is it?" Du Xiaoyue was a little confused.
Xiang Nan didn't explain, but pulled her into an alley, then climbed up the wall with hands and feet and hid on the roof.
A moment later, two black figures were seen flashing into the alley, chasing forward with brisk footsteps and silently.
Du Xiaoyue was shocked when she saw it, and looked at Xiang Nan with admiration, "Master Ji, you are right, someone is really following us."
Xiang Nan nodded and explained, "Your sister is a key criminal appointed by Fukang'an. I was an official in the same court as this man, and I know that his character is cunning and cunning.
The reason why he did not immediately interrogate your sister, but imprisoned her, was because of the account book. Only by destroying the account books can his safety be guaranteed.
So he will definitely send someone to keep an eye on your sister. As soon as we visited him in prison, he would get wind of it. When the time comes, he will be able to get the account books by following us. "
"This bastard is so treacherous!" When Du Xiaoyue heard this, she couldn't help but said angrily.
If Xiang Nan hadn't been alert, she would have almost made a big mistake. If the account books were snatched away by Fukangan, she would never be able to redeem herself.
"So Miss Xiaoyue, corrupt officials have to be even more treacherous. Only in this way can we defeat them." Xiang Nan reminded, "Be careful in the future and don't be taken advantage of by those corrupt officials. Okay, let's go."
Du Xiaoyue nodded.
…
Xiang Nan immediately jumped across the ridge of the house, took Du Xiaoyue away from the roof, walked around seven or eight times to make sure no one was following him, and then came to the theater with Du Xiaoyue.
"Master Ji, I didn't expect you to be quite skillful." Du Xiaoyue said with admiration.
She originally thought that Ji Xiaolan, a scholar, would be powerless. But he didn't expect that he turned out to be quite strong. He jumped up and down the spine as if he were walking on flat ground. He looked like he had practiced well.
Xiang Nan smiled.
He inherited Liu Feng's military skills, so it was not difficult to climb a wall. To be honest, if Ji Xiaolan hadn't been too weak, his performance would have been better.
"Miss Xiaoyue, don't underestimate us scholars." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "The six arts of a gentleman are etiquette, music, archery, charioteering, calligraphy, and mathematics. I dare not say that I am proficient in all of them, but at least I have mastered them."
"Master Ji, this is amazing." Du Xiaoyue gave a thumbs up and then the two of them entered the theater.
Du Xiaoyue took out the account book from behind the couplet on the stage and solemnly handed it to Xiang Nandao, "Master Ji, the hopes of the people in the disaster area are entrusted to you."
"Don't worry, Miss Xiaoyue. Even if Ji loses his job to serve the people and his body is broken into pieces, he will still help the people in the disaster area seek justice." Xiang Nan nodded.
"Master Ji, what are we doing now?" Du Xiaoyue asked again.
"Without further ado, Miss Xiaoyue, help me find a place where no one is around. I want to look at this account book now." Xiang Nan thought for a moment and said.
"Why don't you go back to Gongyuan to see?" Du Xiaoyue asked doubtfully.
"If Fukang'an's people lose track of us, they will definitely report to him. He knows that I live in Gongyuan, and he will definitely send someone to guard there. Once I go back, he will catch me." Xiang Nan explained, "So I can't go back yet."
Du Xiaoyue nodded clearly, "Master Ji, you are indeed smart!"
…
At that moment, Du Xiaoyue took Xiang Nan to a shipyard.
Xiang Nan then illuminated the oil lamp and flipped through the account book.
"Shocking, shocking!" he cursed while watching.
Officials in Yunzhou and Yancheng, from the prefect to the warehouse clerk, are almost all corrupt. They work together to harm the public and enrich their private interests, which can be said to be a disaster for the country and the people.
In the current disaster, with people dying of hunger all over the land, they not only were not in a hurry to help the people, but instead divided up all the government's disaster relief funds, sold the grain in the granary to grain merchants, and then bought some gluten to feed the animals and distributed it to the victims. It was really crazy. ,savage!
Not only that, they also intensified their efforts and levied taxes, forcing the people to sell their sons and daughters and flee their homes. It can be said to be a nest of snakes and rats, extremely abominable!
Xiang Nan had never heard of what these corrupt officials were doing, and he was really furious after seeing it. He couldn't help but slap the case and curse, wishing he could arrest them all and behead them!
Du Xiaoyue accompanied Xiang Nan to look at the account books. Seeing that he was filled with indignation and scolding constantly, she couldn't help but secretly admire him and felt that he was really a good official.
Ji Xiaolan is knowledgeable and has a strong memory, and Xiang Nan also has an amazing IQ.
Therefore, after he read this account book, it was firmly engraved in his mind.
…
After keeping the account book, Xiang Nan told her to hide the account book again.
"Miss Xiaoyue, it's almost dawn, and I should go back to Gongyuan. I will find an opportunity to tell the emperor the contents of the account book and let him deal with these corrupt officials." He said to Du Xiaoyue, "You must be careful, Fukang An is likely to deal with you, so you’d better go out and hide.”
"Don't worry, Mr. Ji, I'm very skilled. If a dog officer comes, I'll kill one." Xiaoyue didn't take Fukangan seriously.
"I trust your skills, but Fukangan will not fight you alone. He will definitely send troops to round you up. No matter how powerful you are, you can't deal with the officers and soldiers of the brigade, so you have to be careful." Xiang Nan reminded .
Du Xiaoyue nodded, "Master Ji, take care of yourself!"
"Take care!" Xiang Nangong said with cupped hands.
