"Ji Xiaolan, you got into trouble, you got into a huge disaster, do you know?" After the white lady was taken away by the officers and soldiers, He Shen looked at Xiang Nan and gritted his teeth angrily, "If the emperor knows who you have captured,

, I will definitely take your head."

"My lord, do you want to see the emperor? Well, Ji Xiaolan would like to invite you, Long Live the Lord." Xiang Nan knelt down and kowtowed.

As soon as the door to the next door opened, Qianlong walked out with a livid face.

"Ah?!" He Shen's face turned pale with fright, and he immediately knelt down, "This slave is here to kowtow to the Emperor."

What he just said to Xiang Nan and White Snake must have been heard by the emperor. Now he is in big trouble.

"Heshen, you had known that this white lady might be my biological mother, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Qianlong pointed at Heshen and asked, "I have been searching so hard in Yunzhou and Yancheng, and I don't know how much wasted it was.

How much effort, do you know that you are deceiving me?"

"You deserve to die! You deserve to die!" Heshen kowtowed after hearing this.

"Tell me, why do you want to support her? What's the conspiracy?" Qianlong asked again.

As one of his most important ministers, He Shen actually inquired about the mystery of his life experience, colluded with the White Snake to do business together, divided the food funds for disaster relief, and conspired to have an affair with the palace. This was simply a rebellion.

…

"Your Majesty has misunderstood this slave. There is absolutely no conspiracy. There is absolutely no conspiracy. Your Majesty Rong Bing, Your Majesty Rong Bing." When He Shen heard this, he was so frightened that he peed his pants and kowtowed repeatedly.

It would not be difficult to deal with the charge of corruption only. As the chief auxiliary of the military, he held a high position of authority. He handled all the major and minor affairs of the court, and the emperor could not do without him.

Therefore, even if he is greedy for money, the most he can do is to be demoted and fined, which will not damage his fundamentals. As long as he is still favored, he will be reinstated soon.

But it would be serious if he was charged with treason. Even if the emperor valued him more, he would still need his life. In the past, Yongzheng loved Nian Gengyao so much, but when he had a disobedient heart, he still said

Just kill him without any hesitation.

"Say!" Qianlong shouted loudly.

He Shen then told the story of his acquaintance with White Snake.

It turned out that he started to associate with the White Snake ten years ago. At that time, he did not know that the White Snake was the biological mother of the emperor. He only took care of her because she gave her a lot of money.

It wasn't until the emperor brought him to Yunzhou to find White Snake that he guessed that she might be the emperor's biological mother. But he couldn't tell Qianlong about this.

First of all, the White Snake is a Han. Qianlong has such a biological mother and is half Han Chinese. This may not be beneficial to his rule. And Qianlong is his biggest backer. If Qianlong falls, he will be finished.

Secondly, Lady White had a lot of shady business with him. If she told Qianlong after meeting, it would be a great disadvantage to him.

So while he pretended to be trying to help the emperor find his biological mother, he hid the truth, causing the emperor to search blindly in Yunzhou. Anyway, he knew in his heart that the emperor could not leave the palace for a long time. He could only search for half a month at most, and if he couldn't find it, he would only be able to find it.

Forget it.

When the time comes, the smoke will disappear and everything will be business as usual.

…

"Your Majesty, my servant has absolutely no conspiracy, absolutely no conspiracy, the Emperor is aware of it, the Emperor is aware of it!" After He Shen finished speaking, he kowtowed and cried bitterly.

"Your Majesty, I can also testify for Mr. He." Xiang Nan cupped his hands and said, "The White Snake has been running business in Yancheng for decades. Mr. He had not yet made a fortune at that time, so he cannot be her backer."

When He Shen heard this, he immediately looked at Xiang Nan gratefully.

"Humph, no matter what, you are guilty of deceiving the emperor!" Qianlong said angrily.

"Your Majesty, forgive me. Your Majesty, forgive me. I don't want the country to be in turmoil, so I don't dare to tell the truth to Your Majesty." He Shen quickly defended himself.

"Huh, don't think that I can't see through your selfishness." Qianlong glared at him, "Okay, get out of here and I'll deal with you later!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty." He Shen quickly got up.

"Mr. Ji, judging from the old lady's behavior, she really may be my mother." Qianlong said with a solemn expression.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I also feel that she is confident." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "I suggest that the old lady's home be searched immediately to find more evidence."

"Ji Xiaolan, you are brave!" He Shen shouted loudly when he heard this.

Can the emperor's biological mother's house be searched casually?

When Qianlong heard this, he nodded.

At the beginning, he really wanted to find White Snake, get to know her, and take her back to Beijing to share a family relationship.

But when they arrived in Yancheng, they found that the White Snake was not only a wealthy businessman, but also a wicked person, whose sins were too numerous to describe.

What shocked him even more was that she also colluded with courtiers, had liaisons with the palace, and had a mysterious figure as a protective shield. There was most likely a conspiracy.

The most ruthless emperor's family!

Once imperial power is involved, even close relatives must step aside.

Therefore, Qianlong was no longer as determined as before about recognizing his mother. Even if he recognized the White Snake as his biological mother, he would not be able to share the happiness of a family as he had previously thought.

…

Xiang Nan immediately took Qianlong, He Shen, Du Xiaoyue and others to the old lady's house to conduct a search.

Gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, letters and account books...all were found.

They also found a half-faced gold lock in the Buddhist hall and a statue of Guanyin in white with the Chinese character [Yong] written on it.

"Master, this half-faced golden lock..." He Shen said in surprise.

Qianlong brought a pair, which were exactly the same as his golden locks.

"This Guanyin statue comes from Prince Yong's palace." Heshen said again, "Master, this White Snake is really probably your biological mother."

Qianlong nodded, took a long breath, and there were tears in his eyes.

"Ji Xiaolan, please make arrangements. I want to go to the prison to see the old lady." He said with an emotional expression.

Xiang Nan nodded.

…

While Xiang Nan, Qianlong, He Shen, Du Xiaoyue and others were searching the Bai Mansion, Fukangan was called out by the fourth girl.

"Master Fu, I hope you can let the Fourteenth Prince go," the fourth girl said.

"Si'er, what do you mean?" Fukangan said pretending to be innocent.

"Master Fu, you clearly know that the prince has no disloyal intentions, why do you want to frame him?" The fourth girl said again, "What is your purpose of ordering someone to pretend to be the Heaven and Earth Society and coerce the prince to rebel?"

"Humph, it turns out you know everything." Seeing her telling the truth, Fu Kang'an stopped pretending and snorted coldly, "According to legend, when Emperor Kangxi passed the throne, he wanted to pass it on to the Fourteenth Prince.

Although it is not true, there are many rumors and many believers, which is quite detrimental to the emperor's rule. As a minister, I naturally have to share the emperor's worries. As long as the Fourteenth Prince is removed, the rumors will naturally be self-defeating. "

"Just because of a rumor, you want to kill the Fourteenth Prince?" the fourth girl said in surprise.

"Si'er, I am just a knife in the emperor's hand. If I don't kill people, this knife will be rusty and useless." Fukangan sighed.

"Okay, Mr. Fu, Ah Si knows that you like me and have always wanted me." The fourth girl nodded, "As long as you promise to let the Fourteenth Prince go, Ah Si is willing to do so. Otherwise, if anything happens to the Prince,
Chapter completed!
