Chapter 485 486 [White Snake]
Afterwards, He Shen, the Fourteenth Prince, Fu Kang'an, and the fourth girl set off together, and took two cars to Yancheng.
"My lord, I'm ready." Fu Kangan quietly said to He Shen in the car.
He Shen nodded.
Walking halfway, the carriage entered a forest, and suddenly there was a crackling sound, and suddenly a group of people rushed out from all directions. Each holds a sharp knife, fierce and fierce.
The driver immediately ran away in fright.
When the fourth girl and Fukang'an saw it, they all went forward to meet her.
"Let's go, my lord!", "My lord, go!" The two shouted loudly while blocking the gangsters.
When He Shen and the Fourteenth Prince saw him, they quickly fought and retreated.
But there were too many gangsters, the Fourteenth Prince was covered with an iron net, like a fish caught in the net, unable to move.
"My lord!" Seeing the fourth girl, she wanted to come forward to rescue her.
Helpless, those gangsters are really powerful. Not only are they numerous, but they also hold big guns and spears, and they have an advantage in weapons. Spears and halberds are like a forest, making her unable to go forward.
"Si'er, Mr. He, let's go!" Fukang'an parried, while pulling the fourth girl and He Shen to run away.
The gangsters chased him for a long time, and then retreated.
"Oh, you survived a near death!" He Shen said with emotion.
"My lord, I'm going to save my lord!" The fourth girl wanted to turn back and said.
"Si Er, those gangsters are numerous and powerful, and they have the advantage of weapons. If you go by yourself, you will just die. It is impossible to rescue the Fourteenth Prince." Fukang'an immediately stopped him when he heard this, "In this way, in another half a day, We will be able to go to Yancheng. After arriving in Yancheng, I will ask the government to send troops to go with you to rescue the Fourteenth Prince."
The fourth girl nodded when she heard this.
The three of them went to Yancheng together.
…
Du Xiaoyue was ordered by Xiang Nan to investigate Bai Niangzi, the owner of Guangfa Grain Company.
After she left the government office, she got in touch with Mo Chou and Huang Keming, and they all went to find out the details of the white lady.
While running around, someone suddenly patted her on the shoulder, "Miss Xiaoyue, I didn't expect to see you here."
Xiaoyue turned around and laughed, "Xu Xian, why are you here?"
"Oh, I'm here to find someone." Qianlong smiled, "By the way, Miss Xiaoyue, last time you said you knew Mrs. Bai, did you remember?"
"Are you also looking for the white lady?!" Xiaoyue asked in surprise.
"Oh?! Listening to what you said, you seem to remember it?" Qianlong's eyes lit up and said, "Tell me quickly!"
Following Xiang Nan's reminder, he came to Yancheng and found Zheng Laoquan's house, but found that their house had died long ago, and the death was very strange.
Zheng Laoquan wiped out his family, which interrupted his clues again. When he was at his wit's end, seeing that Du Xiaoyue seemed to know Mrs. Bai, Qianlong couldn't help being inexplicably excited.
"As far as I know, the owner of Guangfa Grain Company is the White Snake. This woman is very powerful. She owns all the grain stores, money houses, tea houses, boat shops, salt shops, and timber shops in the city." Du Xiaoyue explained, "And don't look at her childless, but her godsons are all over the world, even the eunuchs in the palace recognize her as a godmother."
When Qianlong heard this, he frowned.
This white lady is quite different from the white lady he imagined.
But the white lady that Xiaoyue mentioned is rich and powerful, and she even has people in the palace. Could this white lady be his biological mother? How could she have such a great fortune, and why did she make friends with the eunuchs in the palace?
One mystery after another made Qianlong feel as if he was in a fog.
"Okay, Miss Xiaoyue, thank you for the news, and see you someday." Qianlong immediately left with his hands in his hands.
He is going to check this white lady carefully to see if she is his biological mother.
…
Heshen, Fukang'an, and Siguniang walked all the way to Yancheng.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the city, he was stopped by someone.
"Come on, take down these anti-Qing and Fuming thieves!" The little official stepped forward and shouted again. He saw that the three of He Shen were well-dressed, and the fourth girl was young and beautiful, so he became greedy again. .
"Presumptuous!" Fukang'an yelled, and slapped the little official all over the face, "Look who I am!" As he spoke, he took out the Tiger Talisman token.
When the little official saw it, he almost died of fright.
Last time he hit a wall with Mr. He, but he didn't expect to offend someone he shouldn't have offended this time. He felt that he really should go to the ophthalmology department, or go to the temple to burn incense and pay back his vows.
"My lord, the lower officials are so blind, they really deserve to die. I beg my lord to spare my life, my lord to spare my life!" He knelt down hastily.
"Hmph, take us to the government office immediately!" Fukang'an snorted coldly.
The little official hurriedly got up from the ground and led Fu Kang'an and others to the government office.
"My lord, you came just in time. He Shen and your lord are also in the government office." He said as he walked.
"What?!" He Shen and Fukang An were all shocked, "In Yancheng with your lord?!"
"Yes, he just arrived in Yancheng the day before yesterday." The little official laughed.
He Shen and Fukang'an looked at each other in disbelief.
"What does he look like?" He Shen asked, "How do you know he is He Shen?"
The little official then talked about Xiang Nan's appearance, and said, "He has the official seal of He Shen and Sir, and he is majestic and full of official authority. If it's not He Shen, who is it?!"
"It's Ji Xiaolan!" After hearing what he said, He Shen and Fu Kang'an immediately guessed the origin of the fake He Shen.
"My lord, didn't you say that he has already returned to the capital?" Fukang'an wondered.
"Hmph, I fell for his tricks." He Shen frowned, "He was building plank roads in the open, and he was hiding in the dark. On the surface, he went to the capital, but he didn't expect to come to Yancheng.
Yancheng officials, big and small, have never seen me, and he holds my seal in his hand, so he can easily win their trust. When the time comes, our secret will be clear to him. "
"But why does Ji Xiaolan have your seal?" Fu Kang'an asked doubtfully.
"Hmm..." He Shen frowned and thought for a while, then suddenly clapped his hands, "I remember, the emperor asked for my seal and said he wanted to play with it. I think it was probably at that time that he gave it to Ji Xiaolan. "
"The emperor is also among them?" Fu Kang'an was surprised, "So, the emperor's visit to Yancheng is probably related to Ji Xiaolan."
"Well, what my brother said is very true." He Shen nodded and said, "It's very possible."
"Then what should we do? What if the emperor finds out about the private distribution of relief funds..." Fu Kang'an became frightened.
"Go to the government office quickly." He Shen also said anxiously.
If the emperor really joins forces with Ji Xiaolan, then they will be in danger.
