Chapter 490 691 [Knock the mountain and shake the tiger]
After the trial of the case, Xiang Nan followed Qianlong and Du Xiaoyue back to Houya.
Although Fukang'an was not imprisoned, he didn't want to see Xiang Nan's majesty, so he stayed in Qianya with Liu Changfu and others.
"Master Fu, what's going on?" Liu Changfu asked suspiciously. He still can't believe that Mr. He in the prison is a fake.
"If you should know, I will tell you. If you shouldn't know, what's the use of asking around!" Fu Kang'an glared at him and said, Liu Changfu suddenly didn't dare to speak.
…
"Mr. Ji, I have searched all the shops under the banner of Bai Suzhen, but few people have seen her." Qianlong asked Xiang Nan for advice, "Please teach me how to find her."
"Mr. Xu, Ji recommends that you stop looking for the White Lady." Xiang Nan thought for a while and said, "This White Lady colluded with the government in Yancheng, Yunzhou and other places, and sold the imperial court's tens of millions of stones for disaster relief. Distribute rice bran and bran to the people in the disaster area.
As a result, tens of thousands of people died of starvation in Yancheng and Yunzhou, and nearly one million people were displaced, leaving ten houses empty. It can be said that it is a disaster for the country and the people, a heinous crime, and too many books to describe. Heinous.
Mr. Xu, do you want to find such a villain again? What are you going to do with it when you find it? "
When Qianlong heard this, he couldn't help being shocked.
I didn't expect this white lady to do so many evils, colluding with corrupt officials and embezzling relief food funds. It is a heinous crime and deserves death.
Is such a villain really his biological mother?
His majestic generation of emperors, Mingjun Shengzhu, really want to recognize such a villain as his mother?
Once recognized, what should I do? Will she be held accountable for the crime she committed? If it is pursued, the prince has committed the same crime as the common people, and he will definitely be sent to the guillotine.
If it is not pursued, where is the law and justice? Once it is passed on, how will the people of the world treat it? How will the history books evaluate it?
Qianlong couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
"Sir, let me think about it again." He waved his hand.
Xiang Nan nodded, knowing that this kind of thing really needs careful consideration.
…
In the dense forest, the four girls found the trace of the Fourteenth Prince.
It turned out that after the prince was kidnapped, in order to let the fourth girl find him, he kept throwing small accessories on his body, such as rings, purses, jade pendants, etc., on the ground as road signs along the way.
The fourth girl has been with the prince for many years, so she is naturally familiar with his belongings, so she searched all the way and found the camp where the villains were stationed.
However, they have a large number of people, and it is difficult to save the Fourteenth Prince, so the fourth girl ambushed around, waiting for the best opportunity to attack.
As she observed, she felt more and more that these villains were not simple. They are not simple mobs or bandits or bandits, but more like well-trained soldiers.
On the one hand, the camps where they are stationed are well-decorated. Unlike bandits, bandits, and mobs, they are messy and have no rules to follow.
On the one hand, their actions are well-founded, and they are well-founded, and orders are prohibited, unlike bandits, mobs and other mobs who have no rules.
"What is the origin of these people?" The fourth girl wondered. So when two people went to fetch water from the stream, she quietly followed.
First, he tapped acupuncture points to restrain one person, then put the sword across the other person's neck, and asked sharply, "Say, who are you?"
"We belong to the Heaven and Earth Association." The man said quickly.
"Tiandihui?! Why did you kidnap the Fourteenth Prince?" the fourth girl asked again.
"Nonsense! The Fourteenth Prince is also a Manchu. Since you are fighting against the Qing Dynasty and restoring the Ming Dynasty, why did you support him?" Fourth Miss asked.
"The Fourteenth Prince has enmity with Qianlong, and we share the same hatred with our Heaven and Earth Association." The man explained, "Besides, it is said that the world is originally owned by the Fourteenth Prince. Famous, to overthrow Qianlong's rule."
The fourth girl felt that what this person said was reasonable, and was about to nod her head, when she suddenly frowned, "Okay, since you are a traitor, then I will eliminate harm for the country today. Go to the Nine Springs and cry to Emperor Chongzhen."
The fourth girl said, stabbing the man to death with a sword, and then unlocking the acupuncture points of the other, "Since you are also a traitor, then I will send you on your way too."
"Girl, please forgive me, I'm not a traitor, I'm a disciple of the Eight Banners." The man explained quickly after hearing this.
"Nonsense, you can't fool me." The fourth girl raised her sword and said.
"Really, we are Lord Fukang'an's subordinates." The man said hastily.
"In this case, why did you attack us, and why did you kidnap the Fourteenth Prince?" the fourth girl asked immediately.
"We attacked you just for show, and the purpose was to kidnap the Fourteenth Prince. Otherwise, if there were so many of us that day, if it was really a traitor, if we really wanted to attack, the three of you might not be able to escape." The man quickly explained, "Fu My lord ordered us to pretend to be the Heaven and Earth Society and kidnap the prince, just to plant him as the leader of the rebels, so that the emperor can punish him."
"Why did he do this?" Miss Si asked puzzled.
"I don't know either. We are ordered by God, and we will obey." The man shook his head and said.
"Since that's the case, I can't keep you." The fourth girl then killed him with a sword.
After killing the two, the fourth girl returned to the camp, looked left and right, but still couldn't find a chance to save the prince.
The officers and soldiers under Fukang'an's banner have experienced many battles and are the elite of the Eight Banners soldiers. Although the combat ability of individual soldiers is not as good as martial arts masters like Siguniang, once assembled into a team, their combat capabilities will be greatly enhanced.
The four girls were alone, and they were really no match, so she thought for a long time, and had to go back to the city to ask Fukang'an for help.
…
Qianlong thought about it all night, and then found Xiang Nan.
"Mr. Ji, I still hope to find the White Snake." He said to Xiang Nan, "I want to know if she is my biological mother. If I don't understand this matter, I won't be able to let it go for the rest of my life."
Xiang Nan nodded, understanding his mood.
Those abducted children, many of them spend their whole lives looking for their own homes.
"Since the emperor has made a decision, I will help His Majesty." Xiang Nan nodded, then found Xiaoyue and asked her to lead troops to seal up Datong Bank.
Xiaoyue got the order and left immediately.
"Sir, what do you mean?" Qianlong asked puzzled.
"Knock the mountain to shake the tiger, and lead the snake out of the hole." Xiang Nan laughed.
Sure enough, there was a letter from the bank, and Liu Changfu immediately found it, "My lord, it was wrong, it was wrong. Why did you seal the Datong bank? It is the property of the white lady."
"Datong Bank?! No, I obviously let someone seal it as Huitong Bank." Xiang Nan pretended to be innocent and said, "Oh, by the way, Miss Xiaoyue is illiterate, so it must be a mistake.
Oops, misunderstanding, misunderstanding. In this way, if you invite the white lady here, I will apologize to her face to face. "
"I haven't seen the White Snake either." Liu Changfu waved his hand and said, "My lord, the White Snake is only with you alone. I have visited many times, but I can't even enter the door."
"Then how do you usually communicate?" Xiang Nan asked.
"The liaison in the capital is all personally supervised by adults." Liu Changfu said again, "How dare I contact you privately."
"Oh, I see, you step back." Xiang Nan waved his hand.
