Chapter 1210 Being beaten makes people grow
Being beaten makes people grow up, and the ancients were honest and never deceived.
After being slapped twice in a row, Eunuch Qian grew up. He understood that Zhu Pingan, the weakly crowned county magistrate opposite him, was different from those local officials he had met before. Even the name of the Holy One can't frighten him. This is a ruthless man, a ruthless man with a young and honest face. After realizing how powerful Zhu Ping'an is, Eunuch Qian is much more honest, and he doesn't dare to threaten and provoke him anymore. It was a vicious dog that had been beaten by a raging black bear, huddled in a corner, and put away its minions.
"Are you Qianxu, the buyer of this pearl contract?" Zhu Pingan asked Qian's father-in-law holding the contract.
With swollen lips, Eunuch Qian pointed to Zhang Xiancheng, Master Yao and others, and said in a vague voice, "We are yours, I wish, and they can all testify for me. I also paid a tael of silver." .
"Ahem, we can testify. Old man Liu voluntarily sold it to Eunuch Qian." Zhang Xiancheng and others said.
"Fart, **** robbers! You beat me for a long time and forced me to sell pearls at a low price. I never agreed. In the end, you grabbed my hands and pressed my fingerprints on the contract." Old man Liu heard Said, trembling with anger, couldn't help spitting thick phlegm at Eunuch Qian and the others, and said with tears.
"This is what you said you love me?!" Zhu Pingan pointed to the old man Liu, and sneered at the defense of Qianxu and others.
"What about the pearls you took by force?" Zhu Pingan asked again.
Qian Xu remained silent, he cared very much about this pearl, such a big and fine pearl, but since he left Beijing, he has harvested the best pearl, can it surpass that **** Xiaoliuzi, can it please him? The satisfaction of her godfather is all on this pearl. As long as there is a way, he will not give up.
Zhang Xiancheng and others naturally wouldn't speak.
"Search for me!"
Zhu Pingan glanced at Eunuch Qian and the others, and directly ordered the officials to search the salutes of Eunuch Qian and the others.
"How dare you! We are on errands for the Holy Majesty to buy pearls. If you dare to search our salutes, that is disrespectful to the Holy Majesty." A young **** boldly stepped forward to stop him.
"Hehe, you still dare to use the banner of the Holy Majesty to bluff and deceive. Come, give me a slap." Zhu Pingan sneered.
Soon the little **** also enjoyed the treatment of Eunuch Qian.
The search continues.
If you don't search, you don't know, but if you search, it will be jaw-dropping and unbelievable.
Eunuch Qian is simply a treasure boy, no, a treasure eunuch, he is simply a mobile treasure house. From the luggage of Eunuch Qian, not only old man Liu's pearls were found, but also 8,600 taels of banknotes, 1,580 taels of horseshoe-shaped silver ingots, and 1,000 taels of official silver engraved with the words Taicang. There are about two hundred and twenty-three taels of broken silver, two house deeds, three hundred acres of land deeds, thirteen rare calligraphy and paintings, three pairs of antique vases, twelve pieces of jade pendants, and a small altar of pearls.
The net worth of the other young eunuchs was not bad, and six hundred taels of silver notes, one hundred and twenty-three taels of scattered silver, a land deed of 120 mu, and six jade pendants were also found in their luggage. .
Seeing that so many shady properties were found, Zhu Pingan looked at Eunuch Qian and the others even more unkindly.
Actually, Zhu Pingan also knew the identities of Eunuch Qian and others, and knew that what they said was true, and they were responsible for buying pearls.
Responsible for purchasing pearls, then in their salute, the Taicang official silver one thousand taels can be said to be public funds for purchasing pearls, and the small altar of pearls can also be said to be the pearls they bought. As for other bank 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 peng and the small eunuchs are swaying horizontally and horizontally, sucking the marrow and drinking blood to be enshrined. Most of the public money is less than a tithe, but the world is in peace, and the people are in a state of misery." These eunuchs who left the palace, through various means, Ninety percent of the wealth looted was put into their own pockets, and less than one-tenth was deposited into the national treasury.
These moths of the country and the country!
"Old man, is that your pearl inside?" Zhu Ping'an helped the old man Liu to identify it.
"This one is Lao Er's pearl, and the word 'Liu' is engraved in the pearl box."
Old man Liu recognized his family's ancestral pearls at a glance.
Zhu Pingan opened the box, and there was indeed a word "Liu" in the box, confirming that it was the old man Liu.
Zhu Pingan took out the pearl from it, came to Eunuch Qian, and said with a sneer, "This pearl weighs about three qian, has a round body, delicate color, and a yellow halo the size of a soybean on it. During the period, I also saw a similar pearl. Its size and color were similar to this one, but its shape was not as round as this pearl. Its market value was worth one thousand and one hundred taels of silver. How dare you price it for one tael?! Hehe, isn't it? What is it to steal and plunder, to buy and sell by force?!"
"He sold it to me voluntarily." Eunuch Qian didn't dare to look at Zhu Ping'an, and argued weakly without confidence.
"Huh? There are documentary evidence, physical evidence, and personal evidence, and you still dare to talk nonsense?" Zhu Pingan twitched the corner of his mouth.
A hero does not suffer from immediate losses! When Eunuch Qian saw Zhu Pingan's unfriendly eyes, he immediately fell intimidated, lowered his head and stopped making excuses.
"What's the matter with so much stolen goods?" Zhu Pingan pointed to the property found in the search, and asked Eunuch Qian.
"I went out to Beijing to buy pearls, and these were given to me by local officials voluntarily." Eunuch Qian replied.
"Heh, if you put it this way, your identity is undoubtedly fake. If you are buying pearls on order, then after leaving Beijing, you will naturally go to work honestly to buy pearls. How can you bluff and deceive the local officials like you? Ask for bank notes, house deeds, land deeds, antique calligraphy and paintings, vases, jade pendants and other stolen goods, and rob innocent people! You not only slandered the word Huangcha, but also smeared the Holy One! Come, let this fake Huangcha, bluff, deceive, I will pull down the villain who plundered and plundered, as well as several of his henchmen, it's a big 60 board!"
Zhu Pingan sneered, attacked the shield with the spear of the son, refuted Eunuch Qian with the words of Eunuch Qian, and gave an order to the yamen servant.
Liu Dadao brought a few yamen servants forward, and pushed Eunuch Qian to the ground. The other yamen servants pushed the three eunuchs and four guards who followed Eunuch Qian to the ground and lined them up in the yard.
ah? !
To hit sixty boards! ?
Eunuch Qian turned pale with fright, struggled to lift his head and shouted loudly, "I was ordered to go out of Beijing to buy pearls, not to deceive Zhu Ping'an, don't push yourself too far, my godfather can't forgive you."
"We are really ordered to go to Beijing to buy pearls," the three little eunuchs also shouted.
"Presumptuous! When things come to an end, you dare to impersonate the emperor's envoy! If you are the emperor's envoy, you will naturally commit no crimes and love the people like your own son. How can you extort property, bully others, and steal? If you dare to impersonate the emperor's envoy again, Pretending to be the son of Eunuch Chen, slandering the prestige of the Holy One, and ruining the reputation of Eunuch Chen, that is a crime worthy of death! I beheaded your dog's head, sent it to Eunuch Chen, and dedicated it to the Holy One!"
Zhu Ping'an shouted loudly, and reprimanded with a serious face.
Damn it!
He still wants to kill us? !
Eunuch Qian and the others were so frightened that they didn't dare to speak anymore, lest Zhu Ping'an really cut off their heads.
