The first thousand two hundred and six chapters beat people to grow
Being beaten makes people grow, and the ancients were honest and never deceived.
After being slapped twice in a row, Eunuch Qian grew up and understood that the weak magistrate Zhu Pingan across from him was different from the local officials he had met before. His name, the name of his godfather, and even
Even the name of the Holy One cannot scare him. He is a ruthless man, a ruthless man with a young and honest face. After realizing the power of Zhu Ping'an, Eunuch Qian became a lot more honest and did not dare to threaten and provoke him anymore, like
It was a vicious dog that had been mauled by a violent black bear. It huddled in the corner and put away its claws.
"Are you Qianxu, the buyer of this pearl contract?" Zhu Pingan asked Eunuch Qian while holding the contract.
Eunuch Qian's lips were swollen and sore. He pointed at Zhang Xian Cheng, Chief Yao and others, and said with unclear pronunciation, "We are in love with each other, and they can all testify for me. I also paid a tael of silver."
.”
"Ahem, we can testify that it was Old Man Liu who voluntarily sold it to Eunuch Qian." Zhang Xiancheng and others said.
"Fart, you damn robber! You beat me for a long time and forced me to sell my pearls cheaply, but I never agreed. In the end, you grabbed my hand and pressed your fingerprints on the contract." Old Man Liu heard this.
After speaking, he was so angry that he was shaking all over. He couldn't help spitting a mouthful of thick phlegm at Eunuch Qian and others, and said with tears.
"Is this what you said about your love for me?!" Zhu Ping'an pointed at Old Man Liu and sneered at the excuses of Qianxu and others.
"Where are the pearls you took by force?" Zhu Pingan asked again.
Qianxu was silent in response. He cared about this pearl very much. It was so big and of such good quality, but it was the best pearl he had harvested since he came out of Beijing. Can it surpass that bitch Xiaoliuzi? Can he ask for it?
His godfather's satisfaction lies in this pearl. As long as there is some way, he will not give up.
Naturally, Zhang Xiancheng and others would not speak.
"Search for me!"
Zhu Ping'an glanced at Eunuch Qian and others, and directly ordered the government officials to search the salutes of Eunuch Qian and others.
"How dare you! We are on errands for His Majesty, purchasing pearls. If you dare to search our salutes, that is disrespectful to His Majesty." A young eunuch, who was bold but lacking in confidence, stepped forward to stop him.
"Haha, you actually dare to use the banner of the Holy One to cheat and cheat. Come on, slap me." Zhu Ping'an sneered.
Soon the little eunuch also enjoyed the treatment of Eunuch Qian.
The search continues.
If you don’t search, you won’t know. If you search, you will be stunned and unbelievable.
Eunuch Qian is simply a treasure boy, no, a treasure eunuch, he is simply a mobile treasure house. From Eunuch Qian’s luggage, not only were Old Man Liu’s pearls found, but also eight thousand six hundred taels of silver notes.
, one thousand five hundred and eighty taels of horseshoe-shaped silver ingots, one thousand taels of official silver engraved with the word Taicang, about two hundred and twenty-three taels of scattered silver, two house deeds, three hundred acres of land deeds, thirteen rare calligraphy and paintings, and antique vases
Three pairs, twelve pieces of jade pendants, and a small jar of pearls.
Several other young eunuchs were also wealthy. From their luggage, 600 taels of silver notes and 123 taels of scattered silver were also found, as well as the land deed of 120 acres, and six jade pendants.
.
Seeing that so much shady property was found, Zhu Ping'an looked at Eunuch Qian and others with an even more unkind look.
In fact, Zhu Pingan also knew the identities of Eunuch Qian and others, and knew that what they said was true. They were responsible for purchasing pearls.
They are responsible for purchasing pearls, so in their salute, the thousand taels of Taicang official silver can be said to be public funds for purchasing pearls. The small jar of pearls can also be said to be the pearls they purchased. As for other silver notes, silver ingots, house deeds, land deeds,
Jade pendants, antique calligraphy and paintings, vases, etc. were all collected by them for personal gain and put into their own pockets.
No wonder the history of the Ming Dynasty said: "The big and small eunuchs indulged in sex, sucked marrow and drank blood for the sake of worship. Most of the people who took in public funds were less than ten, and the world was in ruins and all life was in ruins." These eunuchs who left the palace used various means to plunder and plunder the money.
Ninety percent of the wealth is put into their own pockets, and less than one-tenth is deposited in the national treasury.
These worms in the country and the country!
"Old man, is that your pearl here?" Zhu Pingan helped Old Liu up and asked him to identify it.
"This one is my pearl. There is also the word 'Liu' engraved in the box where the pearls are placed."
Old Man Liu recognized his family's ancestral pearls at a glance.
Zhu Pingan opened the box, and there was indeed a word "Liu" inside the box, confirming that it belonged to Old Man Liu.
Zhu Ping'an took out the pearl from it, came to Eunuch Qian, and sneered, "This pearl weighs about three coins. It is round in shape and has a delicate color. It also has a yellow halo the size of a soybean. This officer lives in Linhuai Marquis Mansion in the capital.
During this period, I also saw a similar pearl, similar in size and color to this one, but not as round as this pearl. Its market price is only one thousand one hundred taels of silver. You actually made a price of one tael?! Haha, this is not true
Robbery, buying and selling by force, what are they?!"
"He sold it to me voluntarily," Eunuch Qian didn't dare to look at Zhu Ping'an and argued helplessly without any confidence.
"Huh? There is documentary evidence, physical evidence, and personal evidence. How dare you talk nonsense?" Zhu Pingan twitched the corner of his mouth.
A good man never suffers immediate losses! When Eunuch Qian saw the unkind look in Zhu Pingan's eyes, he immediately became frightened, lowered his head and stopped making excuses.
"What's the matter with so much stolen property?" Zhu Ping'an asked Eunuch Qian, pointing to the property found.
"I went out to Beijing to buy pearls, and these were voluntarily given to me by local officials who passed by." Eunuch Qian replied.
"Ha, now that I say it, your identity is undoubtedly fake. If you were ordered to buy pearls, then after leaving the capital, you would naturally go on errands and buy pearls honestly. How could you lie to local officials like you?
Ask for banknotes, house deeds, land deeds, antique calligraphy and paintings, vases, jade pendants and other stolen goods, and rob innocent people! Not only have you slandered the word emperor, you have also smeared the Holy One! Someone, pretend to be the emperor, and deceive.
Pull down the ruthless villain and several of his accomplices, it’s a big deal!"
Zhu Ping'an sneered, used his spear to attack his shield, refuted Eunuch Qian with his words, and gave orders to the Yamen servants.
Liu Dadao brought several government officials forward and pinned Eunuch Qian to the ground. The other officials pinned the three young eunuchs and four guards who were following Eunuch Qian to the ground and lined them up in the yard.
ah?!
Want to hit sixty boards!?
Eunuch Qian turned pale with fright. He struggled to raise his head and shouted loudly, "I went to the capital to buy pearls on orders, not to trick Zhu Ping'an. Don't push yourself too far or bully others too much. My godfather won't forgive you."
"We really went out to Beijing to buy pearls under orders," the three young eunuchs also shouted.
"Insolent! When things are about to come, you dare to pretend to be the emperor's messenger! If you are the emperor's messenger, you will naturally do no wrong and love the people like your own children. How can you extort property, bully others and take advantage of others like you do! If you dare to pretend to be the emperor's messenger again,
Pretending to be Eunuch Chen’s godson, slandering the majesty of the Holy One and ruining Eunuch Chen’s reputation is a crime worthy of death! I will cut off your dog’s head and give it to Eunuch Chen to offer to the Holy One!”
Zhu Ping'an shouted loudly and scolded him with a serious look on his face.
Damn it!
He actually wants to kill us?!
Eunuch Qian and others were immediately frightened and did not dare to speak any more, lest Zhu Pingan would really chop off their heads.
