Tian Liang and Nalan met a teenage beggar, because he forgot to give the gang leader a few pieces of money to come, and was searched out, he was chopped off by the gang leader, and only the palm of his hand remained. It's very pitiful. They gave the beggar a cloak made of fish and water, put it on him themselves, and bought him a few steamed buns. The beggar knelt down and kowtowed, saying that he had not had anything to eat for two days. Tian Liang Nalan gave him a piece of silver, he didn't dare to ask for it, if he asked for it, the gang leader would suspect that he had more silver and give him a heavier punishment. When he mentioned the helper, he trembled with fright, and it seemed that he was scared. is pitiful enough, but he has to be exploited and bullied by the gang leader.

Later, Tian Liang and Nalan met this beggar who hung a pocket on his chest and kept his hands in his pocket, and the cloak he gave him was missing, thinking that it was confiscated by the gang leader. Since he is a helper, he should be an adult, can he wear a cape for a ten-year-old child? I wanted to ask this kid what's going on, but as soon as he saw Tian Liang and Nalan, the kid ran away, just like seeing a monster, making the two of them inexplicable.

After returning home, I told the prince, and the prince said that he would give the cloak to the adult beggar to try, I'm afraid there is something to say here. You two must be careful, I heard that the beggar gang leader is not an idle person, they use the beggar to inquire about his backstage, and sometimes doing good deeds can also invite trouble.

Nalan said, "Isn't this the revenge of the generals?" Just ignore them. ”

The prince said: "Many things are not what they seem on the surface, and there may be someone in the beggar gang who gets in and then manipulates the beggar gang." You must be careful! ”

When they went to the surrounding counties to sell cloth, they also met beggars, but there were not as many beggars here as in the city, so there may not have been a beggar gang organization. But it's hard to say, anyway, it's not too careful, Tian Liang and Nalan didn't see who gave it to whom. If you are young and strong, you won't give it, and can't you make money to support yourself? Do you have to get something for nothing, when your grandson says good things and asks people to eat? At this time, their eyes fell on the rural children, who were similar to beggars. There are a lot of people who are not clothed, and they are still running naked at the age of seven or eight, and they don't have a single piece of clothing on their bodies.

One day, Tian Liang and Nalan found another shop according to the prince's instructions, ready to sell glass. He was inquiring if there was a nearby shop for rent, when he saw the beggar with a cloth bag on his chest running over, knelt down and kowtowed, asking Tian Liang and Nalan to save his younger brother, saying that his brother was missing.

"Hurry up, how can we save your brother if he is missing? Are you lost? ”

"No, no, no! Those of us who are not familiar with the terrain of this area, usually walk the streets and alleys, and every road is clear. My brother hasn't been back to the broken temple for three days, maybe he sold it to the helper! Whining...... He was only eight years old, and if he was taken away by the flower shooter, he would die. But someone sued me for leading him to the back door of a fragrant garden, and then handed him over to a woman in her forties. I heard that some brothels in Qinglou secretly raised prostitutes to entertain Longyang's good guests. We've lost six or seven boys in their seven, eight, and teens. I ducked over because I was crippled, woo...... We just want to eat, and we don't want to do that for a living! Save my brother, he's only eight years old, how can he stand it......"

"Don't cry, it's not convenient to talk here, we still have something to do. In this way, you will be waiting for us in front of the 'small piece of cloth' cloth shop in the future. ”

"Yes, the little ones will do it."

The "small piece of cloth" Tian Liang mentioned is a newly opened cloth head shop, and there is also a shop called "Xiaolai Xiaogo", which is a shop that sells small goods.

Tian Liang felt that this crippled beggar named Xiaodong didn't seem to be telling a lie, especially if the child was lying, it was very easy to identify. He has been in the capital and in the palace since he came back from Mount Emei, and he has not come into contact with many folk things, but he also knows a lot of unknown filth and gloom. Xiaodong's younger brother was probably sold to a brothel as a child prostitute by the gang owner. Such a big child can't afford to be tortured like a wolf and a tiger, and it can only be a dead end. If such a thing is managed, it is likely that there will be trouble, but he can't ignore the mutilation of such a young life! Of course, he can't just take care of it, he has to report to the prince.

Tian Liang and Nalan told the prince about it when they returned home, and the prince said, "People must be saved, but they can't put themselves in it." This kind of thing is difficult to grasp, and there must be a helper. By the way, I sent Mr. Bai to the front line to investigate. ”

The first line that the prince said is a place like a brothel in the green house. In the Qing Dynasty, it was legal to open a brothel, it was a special kind of business, and the profits were very large, and it was natural to pay taxes. Prostitutes were registered, but the imperial court strictly forbade the keeping of children in brothels because it was contrary to human ethics. Those who buy and sell child prostitutes are caught, and the end is to cut off their heads without discussion. If a brothel is accused of raising a child and is caught, the whistleblower will be rewarded with fifty taels of silver.

So Mr. Bai went to the brothel as an undercover agent to drink flower wine. The brothel is a place where filth is hidden, so Mr. Bai does not spend the night there. It costs five taels of silver to drink flower wine, of course, this money was given to him by the prince. The prince told Yun'er about this, and he just sighed how could there be such a disgusting thing. Yun'er said: "There is still a high level of civilization in the foreign land, aren't there prostitutes too?" Isn't there also a red light district in Hong Kong? Everything in the world is the coexistence of good and evil, and many things are mutually reinforcing. You don't have to worry about it! However, what you said is a matter of human life, and you can save a few children, but it can't be solved in a day or two. You give Yun'er an inspiration, the inspiration for doing business, that is, should we open a store in a place like Bada Hutong that specializes in supplying those girls? ”

"What are you kidding? Let's not get involved in these things in our business. ”

'Have you ever heard of a saying?' The big is hidden in the city, and the small is hidden in the mountains and forests'.

"What do you mean, it seems to be very profound."

"You haven't heard of this? It probably means that there are some hermits, and the range of hermits is very wide, including people who are dissatisfied with reality, as well as people who cultivate, who feel that the world is too dirty, so they return to the mountains and forests and escape to the world. When you go to the mountains and old forests to live the life of a hermit, you feel very clean without touching those dirty and dirty things. This kind of person is a hermit who lives in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and it can also be said to be a small hermit. But there is another kind of person who is 'spotless in the downtown area', no matter what dirty and filthy, he will be spotless, just like the white lotus, there is sludge and muddy water under his feet, he is spotless. Do you think this kind of person is clever or is it clever to retreat to the mountains and forests? ”

"Of course, it's spotless in the middle of the city. He can do it as if there is nothing, and he is already invincible without any interference. ”

"It's a good one that is invulnerable, and your understanding is quite good."

"What you said is also very profound, this world is the muddy water under the feet of the lotus, and it is very difficult to take root in the muddy water and maintain the holiness of the white lotus. By the way, you said that opening a shop in Bada Hutong and selling some things is also a way to make money. It is also interesting to let those who have money and have no place to spend it with fever to use some of their money for the state. When I went back, I asked Mr. Bai to find a shop near Bada Hutong and sell some of those women's things. Xiangtian Liang and Nalan don't have to go to that kind of place, in case they change their temperament, it won't be good. ”

"You can't trust my brother?"

"It's not that I can't believe it, it's that he has more important things."

Yun'er smiled: "Actually, my brother is similar to you, he was a professional cultivator in his childhood and adolescence, and those rules and precepts are engraved in his mind. Light yΓ¬ will not break the color precept, but it is difficult to say, you should send a few people who can't break the color precept if you want to. There are many eunuchs in our house who can resist sugar-coated shells. ”

The prince pinched Yun'er's nose dotingly: "Clever ghost."

As a result, Mr. Bai had two errands with heavy responsibilities: one was to secretly investigate the prostitution of children, and the other was to find a store that could test sell the novel and small goods brought back by the prince, and then open a special store in a suitable location in Bada Hutong for men who came to the brothel to have fun to please women, and the girls here could naturally choose some of their favorite goods.

Not to mention, there is a steamed bun shop at the mouth of the alley to redeem, and the owner is anxious to use the money. So Mr. Bai personally negotiated with the homeowner. This is a typical gold cave, and even the surrounding businesses are also rising with the tide. The rent of the small shop they rented on the flyover was ten taels of silver a month, and it was good here, thirty taels! With a monthly rent of thirty taels, you can buy a house in the countryside. But this place is not the other place, there is no comparison, and after bargaining again and again, Mr. Bai almost grinded down the three-inch incorruptible tongue to an inch to talk about twenty-five taels. He didn't dare to make the final decision, so he said that he didn't have enough money, so he went home to get the money and went back to the house to ask the prince for a show. Mr. Bai did not tell the owner of the bun shop that he was from the palace, so naturally he went home instead of returning home.

As soon as I told the prince, the prince said: "It's best to only set a deadline of half a year, and if you make money, you can continue the time." ”

As soon as Mr. Bai went back and said, the landlord agreed, so he wrote the contract, asked Li Zheng to do the guarantee, signed the rental contract, paid the money, got the keys, and then renovated, and then opened the business.

During this period, Mr. Bai went to different brothels to drink flower wine every once in a while. Search for the missing beggar who was sold.

This Mr. Bai is really a talent, he can hear the information he needs from the mouths of other benefactors, and then find out the clues he needs, and finally ask a girl from the mouth of a girl to a "cousin" called "Water Town Zeguo" who raises prostitution children. As a reward and encouragement, Mr. White gave the girl a hairpin made of alloy, a crystal glass bracelet, and a pair of coral earrings, plus a large imitation pearl, small fluorescent acrylic plastic colored beads, and a sachet made of velvet with a gradient tassel of tassels, and a sachet made of flower and bird satin with diamond-like hot diamonds around the top of the blessing character. Fluttershy hugged her tightly in her arms and burst into tears. Then he said: "Since Bai Gongzi is so rich, why don't you stay overnight?" Then he said that he would make a promise by example. Mr. Bai hurriedly said: "It's not about money, it's about the insider." And、And in the next aspect is very incompetent.,I've heard that the girl is understanding.,Want to talk to you.。 ”

"You're not telling the truth, Fluttershy guesses that your family must be a tougher one." In other words, Bai Qi is afraid of guilt, and he says it a little more implicitly, and his wife is tough.

Bai Qicai didn't explain to her, just thinking about how to ask about the prostitution. Fluttershy says, "I don't care what you do, but you can investigate child prostitution by doing good deeds." In fact, it is already hurtful for women to do our business, and they need such a young child...... Let me tell you, that water town Zeguo looks like a lot of people on the surface, but it is actually the most profitable. There are a lot of good gentlemen in Longyang, those children are deceived and stolen, not only are they forced to do that kind of thing, but they also have to use their one to make an aphrodisiac, and if they don't die, they will be sent to the palace as eunuchs. There is not a single such unlucky child, I heard it from a fellow sister who worked there when she met her on the street. She said that one child was tortured to death just a few days after she went, and then was pocketed by the turtle father, with goods pressed on it, and dragged by a car to a mass grave outside the city and thrown away. ”

Fluttershy's words scare Mr. White so much that his heart beats ten times faster and he almost collapses. Finally, it didn't change its hair and color, and it was maintained until the "chat" was completed, and then he went out of this green building to find "Water Town Zeguo". After walking for a long time, I saw an inconspicuous plaque above an inconspicuous gate, which was indeed a water town and a country. It should be a swamp, and it will be difficult for those who have fallen into it to climb ashore.

Bai Qi got out of the hanging flower door of this green building and got into the carriage, and said to the handlebar: "Quick! Hurry home! ”

Bai Qi found the prince in the garden and said that he had something important to report.

"Let's go and sit in the back of the Qingxiang Pavilion, where the back is quiet."

"Listen to the prince below."

As soon as he sat down, Bai Qi couldn't wait, and told the prince about the situation he got.

"Is this still enough? The crime of mutilating and humiliating children and killing their heads is light! What aphrodisiac costs people's lives? No, I have to report to the emperor. You enter the palace with the king and report the situation to the emperor truthfully. Don't be nervous, just don't stutter, just speak clearly and not verbosely. ”

"Bai Qi listens to the prince, and he won't be too nervous."

So the prince changed into auspicious clothes and took Mr. Bai into the palace. The emperor was so angry that he pouted the brush: "Is there any royal law here?" Killing people under my nose, and aphrodisiac? How he didn't die! For him to play women better, no matter whether others live or die! Tie Yan, Mr. Bai, you will take a hundred Imperial Forest Army at night and directly take this water town's nest! ”

When the lights were on, the Guards didn't even knock on the door, and put the ladder they had brought directly on the back wall of the brothel, blocking the doors of each room, and then kicked the door into the house, but there was no one, and they also found a door in the storage room under the stairs, which was inserted from the inside. With an axe, the door opened, and there were several Uncle Longyang inside doing that according to a few children in their seven, eight, and teenage years. Nothing else tied up, and the children were taken away at the same time.

Soon there were results, the bustards in this family were men, only three or four girls in the "hall" were working outside as a cover, and the rest were boys who were prostitutes, some of whom had been destroyed to the point of being inhuman, and some had been tortured to death. All dismembered in the basement ready to be thrown away.

The male bustard was quickly beheaded, and Long Yang Zhihao caught five, three directly beheaded, and two asked them to name other Long Yang. As for those children, they were given by the emperor to the prince for placement. At the same time, he gave the prince five thousand taels of silver as a reward.

The crippled beggar's brother was lucky to be alive, but he was tortured to death.

The prince arranged the dozen or so children in an empty house in Nanwaifu, sent a few eunuchs to take care of them, and asked Doctor Zhu to treat those who were sick.
