Chapter 679

After Xu Tian had done everything, he went to the dungeon.

The clinic owner had only been here for a day, but he looked completely unrecognizable.

He looked disheveled and unkempt.

His hands also looked pitch black.

"My lord, did the Minister of Rites come to you? Are you going to release me?"

Even at this point, the clinic owner still hadn't grasped the situation.

Xu Tian gave a cold snort.

He glanced at the clinic owner with disdain.

"I'm afraid you won't be able to wait for that Minister of Rites. However, I can give you a very good suggestion."

Upon hearing this, the clinic owner immediately raised his head.

"What advice?"

He knew that the Minister of Rites hadn't sent anyone to look for him all night.

It's possible they've given up on him.

Xu Tian immediately ordered someone to bring out the silver.

"I will now give you all this gold and silver jewelry, but you need to agree to one condition."

When the clinic owner saw the box that Xu Tian brought out, he was immediately struck by its contents: gold and silver jewelry.

His eyes lit up instantly.

I couldn't help but swallow.

"Are all of these for me?"

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

This person always has conditions for exchange in everything.

It is only valuable if it is useful.

Xu Tian, ​​use these gold and silver jewelry as bait.

The clinic owner was asked to disclose his relationship with the Minister of Rites.

Xu Tian learned from the clinic owner that the Minister of Rites had been embezzling and accepting bribes.

He didn't actually have much of a relationship with the Minister of Rites; it was just a win-win situation.

“This whole thing was planned in advance. We would get the money and share the profits, and he would be my backer, helping me out when it mattered most.”

But to his surprise, now that he's in trouble, the Minister of Rites has disappeared.

Xu Tian frowned upon hearing what Boss Guan said.

This collusion between officials and businessmen has been a long-standing issue.

But people like them actually harm ordinary people for their own benefit.

This was the first time Xu Tian had met him.

Therefore, he decided that this time, he would definitely not let that Minister of Rites off easily.

Back in his office, he began gathering all the evidence.

"It seems that some of the local gentry and minor officials have given him quite a bit of benefit."

In the process of collecting this evidence, he discovered a very common problem.

Many of those minor official positions were obtained by purchasing their titles from the Minister of Rites.

"This is utterly lawless."

Xu Tian slammed his fist heavily on the table, his anger clearly visible in his eyes.

"Songren, we will take the initiative to pay a visit to the Minister of Rites tomorrow."

He wanted to see just what kind of monster this Minister of Rites was.

They were actually capable of doing so many heinous things.

Song Ren was still a little worried.

After all, the position of Minister of Rites is quite prestigious.

His superior was merely a minor county magistrate.

Could he possibly contend with a Minister of Rites?

But as it turned out, his worries were all in vain.

Xu Tian's lips twitched slightly.

"Let alone a Minister of Rites, I dare to handle even higher official positions."

"Go and get ready. We'll leave first thing tomorrow morning."

Having been here for so long, he had never actually paid a visit to this Minister of Rites.
