In the evening, Xiang Nan, accompanied by Xiaoyue, came to Jin Dayantai's house.

I saw that the carved beams and painted buildings of his Jin Mansion were magnificent and magnificent, which was indeed impressive.

"Mr. Ji, I've admired your name for a long time." Jin Da Yandian said with a smile while holding the pipe pot.

"Hello, Uncle Jin!" Xiang Nan said with a smile, "I heard from Xiaoyue that you have a big pipe, and Ji wanted to come and pay his respects."

When Jin Da Yandian heard this, he laughed and said, "I was just about to compare myself with you."

With that said, the two of them raised their pipes and pots together.

I saw two large tobacco pouches that looked alike, both extremely huge.

"Hahahaha~" Xiang Nan couldn't help but laugh.

"I have admired Mr. Ji for a long time. He is the most talented man in the world. He is famous and has a good official reputation." Jin Dayandai smiled and said, "Now I am a fellow student and we are even closer. Come on, please treat me like that."

Bring the imported tobacco from Great Britain."

"Thank you, Uncle Jin." Xiang Nan cupped his hands and said with a smile, "Ji came to visit me this time. Actually, I have one more thing to ask for."

"Mr. Ji, please speak." Jin Da Yandian nodded.

"Ji came to Ganzhou to take office this time, mainly to investigate the grain supervision case." Xiang Nan explained, "Currently, the former governor of Ganzhou Wang Danwang and the chief envoy of Ganzhou Wang Tingzan have been detained.

Ji will next move the officials of Ganzhou, big and small. They are numerous, intertwined, and powerful, so they hope to get help from Uncle Jin."

"Oh, Mr. Ji is amazing." Jin Da Yandian said with admiration upon hearing this.

The governor and chief envoy of a province were all pulled down by him, which was really powerful.

"I didn't say anything. I have long wanted to deal with these corrupt officials, Uncle Jin." He immediately agreed happily.

…

"Thank you, Uncle Jin, for your support." Xiang Nan cupped his hands and said with a smile, "By the way, Uncle Jin, He Shen and I are ministers in the same palace. Although the suppression of the bandits was frustrated this time and the investigation was not effective, we were imprisoned for many days.

It’s a small punishment but a big warning, so let’s let him go.”

"Haha, I heard that you Ji Xiaolan always fights with He Shen." Upon hearing this, Jin Da Yandian laughed and said, "Why are you begging for his favor now?"

"My fight with Heshen is just for official business, and I have no personal grudges." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said with a smile, "Actually, with Heshen's talents, if he is neither greedy nor robbing, loyal to serve the country, and helps the world and the people, Ji would be willing to join him.

Be a friend."

"Okay, this is a good official of our Qing Dynasty." Jin Dayandai said with a smile, "Okay, since it is Mr. Ji who begged for mercy, then I will let He Shen go."

"Well, thank you Uncle Jin for the favor." Xiang Nan smiled and said to Xiaoyue, "Xiaoyue, go ahead and earn this favor."

Du Xiaoyue smiled and nodded, then took the golden tobacco bag as a token and went to the prison to release He Shen. By the way, he also gave him one million taels of silver and made a huge fortune.

Xiang Nan had a secret conversation with Jin Da Yandian and formulated a detailed plan to investigate the grain supervision case.

…

Turning around, Xiang Nan went to see He Shen first.

"Ji Xiaolan, your hands are really fast. In just a few days, Wang Danwang and Wang Tingzan were all captured by you." He Shen said in surprise.

He really didn't expect Xiang Nan to move so quickly. He had only left Hangzhou for a few days, and there had already been such a big breakthrough in the grain supervision case. It was really impressive.

Xiang Nan smiled.

He used all the trial methods used by later anti-corruption bureaus. No beating or scolding, fatigue bombardment. So many corrupt officials couldn't stand it. Wang Tingzan had never suffered like this since he was a child, and he was indecisive and weak-willed.

Naturally, he spit it out quickly.

"Master He, if you are too careful not to investigate, why don't you let me investigate?" Xiang Nan said with a smile.

To be honest, He Shen didn't make much money from Ganzhou. However, he has always been resistant to investigating and punishing corrupt officials.

Firstly, they are both corrupt officials, and the rabbit dies and the fox is sad, which is somewhat incestuous; secondly, he does not want to offend others. He Shen likes to make friends in the court and respond to everyone's calls, so he can secure his position as the chief military officer.

But if he investigates corrupt officials, he will offend others. If the officials of the Qing Dynasty are lined up and beheaded one by one, there must be some who have been unjustly punished. If every other official is killed, there must be someone who slips through the net.

Corrupt officials hate those who investigate them most, so He Shen would rather risk being reprimanded by the emperor than investigate corrupt officials as aggressively as Xiang Nan.

"Ji Xiaolan, what do you mean?" He Shen couldn't help but said angrily when he saw that there was something in Xiang Nan's words that undermined his own protection of corrupt officials.

"It's not interesting, sir." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said with a smile, "I just want to tell you that the emperor attaches great importance to the Ganzhou grain supervision case and must get to the bottom of it. Otherwise, you and I will not be punished.

All the great bachelors were sent.

So I advise you to stop using your crooked brains and do your best to run errands for the emperor. Otherwise, once the emperor takes the blame, he won’t just put you in jail and lock you next to a urine bucket for three days, and give you a small punishment but a big warning."

"What, you mean..." He Shen was stunned and thought of the big gold pipe.

"Of course. Do you think Jin Dayandai is really teaching you a lesson about sesame and mung beans? He was ordered by the emperor to punish you for your failure in suppressing bandits and failing to investigate the case." Xiang Nan said with a smile.

He Shen suddenly felt panic.

…

After Xiang Nan beat He Shen hard, he immediately led people to dig out his grain supervision accounts recorded over the years from the old house behind Wang Tingzan's villa.

Immediately, he followed the records in the account book to verify the involvement of Ganzhou officials in the case, and found out whether they should be arrested or sentenced. This turned Ganzhou officialdom upside down for a while.

And while Xiang Nan was busy catching and interrogating corrupt officials, He Shen was also busy taking advantage of it.

Almost all of these officials in Ganzhou, from top to bottom, are greedy. After so many years of plundering the people's wealth, their wealth ranges from hundreds of thousands to tens of thousands, and they are all just fat ducks.

Now that Xiang Nan's drastic measures to eradicate corruption could catch them at any time, they were naturally frightened and looked for shelter one after another.

And He Shen, who was on the same level as Xiang Nan and was also a favorite, naturally became their first choice.

Therefore, these days, people seeking to see He Shen are almost like crucian carp crossing the river, and the stream is endless.

"Mr. Ji, Heshen's camp has almost turned into a vegetable market. There are so many people wanting to see him every day. In my opinion, they must be giving him money." Du Xiaoyue reported to Xiang Nanhui, "How about I

Bring someone to arrest them all."

"No need. There is no proof. What are you arresting?" Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "Besides, the emperor truly loves Heshen. Even if he takes bribes, the emperor is willing to forgive him. And as long as Heshen does not fall, those officials will

They don't dare to testify against him, so it's useless for you to arrest them.

What we can do is to try and sentence him quickly and not let any corrupt officials slip through the net. In this way, those corrupt officials will know that He Shen is useless, and they will no longer give him money in vain."
