Qianlong left Taoyedu and did not go to other places to take a leisurely view. He walked back to the governor's yamen, his heart still surging with thoughts, momentarily melancholy and helpless, momentarily desolate and sad, and momentarily warm-hearted...... There are also inexplicable worries and hopes. The crowd full of strange lights on the street, noisy and lively shouting and shouting, all turned a deaf ear, and Ji Yun asked "Do you want to call a sedan chair" twice, but he didn't answer. It wasn't until Jin asked to see him outside the door that Qianlong came to his senses from his reverie and found that he was already in the Governor's Yamen Qin Yi Hall. Then Yan Hong took the tea, and while placing it on the coffee table, she glanced at Qianlong in surprise and said, "Master, you don't seem to be happy?" - Master Ji, where did you go, what did the master dare to hit? ”

"How do you know if I'm not happy? I'm a little worried. ”

"It's a slave guess. Seeing that the master was in a trance, there were tears on his eyelids......"

Only then did Qianlong feel that his cheeks and cheeks were slightly knotted, and there were tears in the corners of his eyes, and he was busy wiping his face with a hot towel, so he ordered: "Jin come in!" Jin Yiti crossed the threshold of the corner of his robe, and said on the spot: "Slave Jin to the master, please say goodbye!" Hearing that the master met Yi Ying outside, Liu Tongxun was in a hurry, and he couldn't come over because he was sick. Look at the master's complexion, it seems to be irrelevant—not frightened, right? Qianlong couldn't help but be stunned, glanced at Ji Yun in surprise, and then looked at Duanmu Liangyong and Bartle, who were guarding the outer steps of the patio, and said, "Ear report God so quickly? ”

"It was the minister who informed Liu Tongxun!" Ji Yun knelt on the ground with a "plop" on his knees, kowtowed again and again, and said: "The emperor is in an unpredictable place, and he sees an unpredictable person." The subordinate is in the center, and the guards are responsible, and they can't be admonished on the spot, so they have to send Ma to report to Liu Zhongtang and Yin Zhongtang...... At that time, the Lord knew the situation, but it was a last resort. The minister's heart was full of fear and anxiety...... In case Yi Ying's beast nature is big, it will hurt the master in the slightest, and the minister will ...... I'm not ready to survive......" he said, tears welling up. Yan Hong Yingying only then knew a little about the ins and outs, and when she heard that she saw Yi Ying, she was so frightened that her face turned pale, staring at Qianlong in a daze, frowning and silent.

Qianlong smiled, clasped his hands together, and said, "There are many things in the world that you can't understand!" The common people often say 'heavenly conscience', heavenly reason is the way, conscience is love, one thing in addition to the truth, there is also love! You still have to have a good life experience, and just reading a few sub-books is not enough. Ji Yun kowtowed and said: "This 'experience' minister doesn't have it, and he doesn't want to have it." The Lord is concerned with the safety and misfortune of the common people in the world, how can ordinary people be reasonable? This minister does not dare to serve the edict, and he will not obey the edict during the period! "What you say is also in the conscience of heaven." Qianlong rinsed his mouth with tea and stood up, "Translocation, I will do the same." I myself am still frank and fearless, but I bluff you all uneasy, and intimidate Liu Tongxun - go, look! ”

Ji Yun kowtowed and got up, wiped his tears with his sleeve, and sighed: "It's just uneasy, the minister is really not possessed by his soul, as if he is in a nightmare!" Until this time, his bones were still as soft as mud - Yan Qinggong came over. When Qianlong looked at it, sure enough, the two eunuchs came in with Liu Tongxun on their side, and when they saw Qianlong, they struggled to bow down and salute, Qianlong hurriedly took a step forward and personally supported him, moved in his heart, but said with a smile in his mouth: "Why are you doing this?" Yi Ying is also a human being, I shoot tigers and kill bears, and her fighting skills are no less than ordinary guards. If you do it, she may not be my opponent - you are worried and frightened by this...... If you relax your mind, why do you become tired of this child just after the year of destiny? It's a good place to live, you still have to prepare to wait for my son......" said, also shed tears, and helped Liu Tongxun to sit on the easy chair.

"The minister is really incompetent and useless...... I can't wait to pluck it out, and I feel that the Lord should not leave the temple lightly......" Liu Tongxun's face was originally dark, but at this time it was blue and yellow, tears wiped and came out, and he took the ginseng soup handed by Qianlong himself. After a sip, he put it down, and said in a hoarse voice, "The minister has been in charge of the criminal department for half his life, and how many sinister and cunning people have been tried. There are indeed all heroes on the rivers and lakes who don't frown, but more of them are ruthless and unreasonable. The Lord is too benevolent, like Song Xianggong who wants to suffer...... Don't talk about this, it's good to come back, it's good to come back......" Qianlong's heart was sour, and he said: "I listened to it, I listened to it...... Not anymore. "And this Yi Ying, there is no future." Liu Tongxun said, "The minister has ordered that all the army, government officials, and black and white places in Nanjing that were originally scheduled to be arrested will not delay the time and defend both water and land, and immediately start to capture 'a flower'!" ”

Qianlong didn't say anything, nodded slightly and returned to his seat, glanced at the recital that had just been transferred from Beijing Agui, took it all over, browsed the catalog of recitals, lightly threw it on the table, and said, "I talked with Yi Ying for an hour and a half tonight." Say a lot. It is also very heart-to-heart, and I have benefited a lot. I personally pardoned her, Ji Yun knew about this, and Yi Ying had also become Conghua. Since it has been conformed to the law, it is inconsequential if it cannot be caught, which is an irrelevant matter. I put a word to Tongxun, you are the mainstay of my Qing Dynasty, and the credit is in the community. After working hard for Yi Ying's case for several years, it is worth it to make me meet her peacefully. The case can be dismissed. If you can't catch it, you will be judged by the performance of capturing and ambushing. Ji Yun said: "That's the words of the Lord on the spot, or should it be handled by law." Qianlong said lukewarmly: "You should do your errands according to the law." The 3,000 articles of the "Great Qing Law", when it comes to the root, are based on the three outlines and five constants. Therefore, the Compendium is always in charge of the law. Jun has no jokes, I want to pardon her, I'm afraid it will be difficult for you Ji Yun to resist the decree. ”

Ji Yun bit his lip secretly, said "yes", and didn't dare to rap again. Liu Tongxun said: "The emperor should also follow the Tao, and it is also according to the three outlines and five permanent benevolence teachings, and the world can be governed well." Arranged by the ministers, Yi Ying is put on her wings, and she may not be able to escape from Nanjing. The minister earnestly hoped that the emperor would dissect the case with the heart of the public world, and would not be moved by Yi Ying's clever words. Ji Yun held back a sentence: "If there is love in the sky, the sky will be old!" ”

"The Tao is ruthless and affectionate. The way of Confucius and Mencius originates from benevolence, what about benevolence? From the compassion of people, it is still a 'love'. Sometimes, human affection is the principle of heaven. Qianlong quietly retorted to the two courtiers, "Don't think that I am a good person. Killing Liu Kang, Khalqin, as well as Nuo Min, Nian Qianyao, Shandong's Qi family, I all participated in it, and Gao Heng and Qian Du in the back, I am afraid that it will be difficult to escape Wang Gang. But Yi Ying is a person who is forgivable. ”

"Yi Ying gathered twice, gathered the crowd to rebel three times, spread cults to confuse the people, looted the treasury, and killed officials without permission. The ten heinous crimes committed, such a giant, have only been seen since the rebellion of the three feudatories, and there is no forgiveness? Liu Tongxun listened, no matter what Qianlong's words said, he meant to excuse Yi Ying, coughed lightly, bowed down on the chair and said, "Confucius said that self-denial is benevolence. Etiquette is the order of the upper and lower order. The minister thought that even if Yi Ying couldn't be captured alive, he would have to break his bones and scatter ashes, thinking that the latter was a warning. Pardon Yi Ying, and in the future, the ministry will discuss the major crime of rebellion, what is the wording of the criminal department to listen to the heavens? ”

Although his body was weak and his spirit seemed to be aggrieved, he said this without tolerance, and the words were sonorous, Qianlong couldn't help but nod and said, "Yanqing is reasonable. Whether Yi Ying can be arrested now is still between the two. But on my own merits, she is forgivable and forgivable. ”

Liu Tongxun Ji Yun, along with Yan Hong and Ying Ying, all looked at Qianlong with their eyes.

"She didn't set up a king, didn't attack the city and occupy the palace, didn't want to seize the country and become the emperor, and rebelled only for self-protection. It's different from ordinary anti-thieves. Qianlong said, "I ...... talked to her a lot, it turned out to be an innocent and good woman, who was forced to fall into a big crime step by step, this is another one; Such a person goes up the mountain to pull the flag and set off the cannon, the magistrate, the local gentry are guilty, and the court has to share a little bit of responsibility, and I also share a little responsibility for her. Since the two rivers in the south of Shandong River, she has not made trouble again, and in her speech, she has a heart of repentance, which is another one. I met with me several times, this time I met face-to-face, and I didn't have the intention of harming her, I was blessed to see me, and I talked for a long time, without offense, which was also her blessing. In the past, Zeng Jing Zhang Xi, Huai Evil Shugan said that Yue Zhongqi rebelled, and when it came to his heart, Zeng Jing's evil was far greater than Yi Ying's, and the first emperor not only did not punish him, but also awarded him an additional official. Could it be that the first emperor was also wrong? Why do you take people? Or are you afraid that she will rebel, what is the punishment for interrogation? It is also for 'setting an example'. She didn't rebel, and no one 'followed', how could she not be forgiven? ”

This is purely a strong rhetoric, and clever words make the color out of Yi Ying. Since Qianlong was in his words, the two of them felt that it was more difficult to refute it. Liu Tongxun swallowed his saliva, Qianlong himself personally shared the "crime" for Yi Ying, what else did the courtier have to say? Ji Yun said: "It's okay to do evil in the sky, but it's okay to do it yourself." Yi Ying rebelled and openly resisted the heavenly soldiers, which was self-inflicted! At the beginning of the emperor's accession to the throne, he issued an order to kill Zeng Jing and Zhang Xi. Today, I want to pardon Yi Ying and cite this example, but the minister can't understand. ”

"Yi Ying is the first to do evil in heaven, and she is forced to do her own evil last." Qianlong smiled and said, "This is really a bit of a sitting and talking about the Tao." You don't believe in reason, and I hate the harshness of reason. The first emperor didn't kill Zeng Jing, I did. If I don't kill Yi Ying, my son will be killed in the future, and he will go. He was so proud of his whimsy that he took a sip of tea and smiled again.

Liu Tongxun and Ji Yun were still searching for the truth to persuade Qianlong, when suddenly there was a rush of footsteps outside. When everyone looked, it was Yin Jishan who hurriedly came in, his face was still covered with fine sweat, and he didn't have time to wipe it, so he called Qianlong a thousand times and said: "The slave asks for peace for the master-Yi Ying, who has been surrounded on the Guanfeng Tower in the two miles outside the east gate of the city!" ”

Qianlong's heart sank, and Yi Ying still didn't escape from Liu Tongxun's palm. He seemed a little flustered, with inexplicable regret, and a hint of relief, sat back in his chair relaxedly, and said, "Get up." Take your time and don't rush. What's going on now? Yin Jishan got up to wipe his sweat and said, "She ran away through the east gate." Huang Tianba's bottom line was afraid that there was no arrangement outside the city, so he moved inside the east gate. The hateful Yan Ruyun turned against the enemy to help the enemy, and several people under the Huang family couldn't suppress it, and there was a scuffle there. Huang Tianba led people to search Wuyi Lane and Taoyedu, afraid that she would take the waterway, and went to Yanziji to block the passing boats, and rushed to the police when he saw it, the thirteenth Taibao Huang Fuyang was seriously injured, and the twelfth Taibao Huang Fuming was exhausted to death. Fortunately, the garrison of Xiejiating outside the city received Liu Yong's alarm, and more than 1,000 people surrounded them on all sides, oppressing Yi Ying and five people to retreat to Guanfeng Tower. ”

"This Yan Ruyun is really a hopeless bastard!" Liu Tongxun patted the chair handle with both hands, and his face turned blue with anger, "--Feed the uncooked wolf lamb!" Is Liu Yong there to supervise the arrest? - I'm going to go for myself! Ji Yun asked, "Did you alarm the people in the city?" Yin Jishan said: "There is not much alarm. There were few inhabitants there, and at night, a few idle tourists thought it was a group fight, and wanted to see the excitement, but the soldiers guarding the city gate blocked them back. Jin saw Liu Tongxun stand up with his hands propped up, and hurriedly said: "Yan Qinggong, you just looked a little better, sit and talk with your master here." Yuan Chang and I went to Guanfeng Tower. Those thieves and men are gone, you just have to ask me! ”

Qianlong's mood suddenly became very disturbed, thinking that Fang Cai and Yi Ying were still talking and walking on the banks of the Qinhuai River, and in an instant, there was a big change, and she was trapped in a high-rise building and besieged, as if she had cut her off with her own hands, an indescribable feeling. Because he put down the teacup in his hand and said, "I'll go and see it too!" Yin Jishan didn't say much after hearing it, but Jin Liu Tongxun heard that Qianlong had just returned to protect Yi Ying, and he was afraid that he would pardon Yi Ying on the spot, which would be even more embarrassing. Liu Tongxun was about to dissuade him, but Ji Yun said: "The master followed me, it's better not to go." The current situation is like fire and water, and ice and charcoal are always difficult to be in the same furnace! Yi Ying is full of evil and heinous crimes, and she deserves to end like this-Lord, this is full of cases and papers, no matter which one is drawn, it is much more important than Yi Ying's case, you are not worth going there in the middle of the night, and seeing her ......capture and die with your own eyes" Before the words were finished, Qianlong had already walked out. I had to follow along. Yin Jishan hurried out of the courtyard of the Qinyi Hall and said loudly: "Prepare the horse!" - Take out the chrysanthemum blue I usually ride! As he spoke, he listened to three dull afternoon cannons in the direction of Gongchentai. It's late at night.

Guanfeng Tower is located about two miles away from the east gate of Nanjing, two arrows away along the north side of the Shendao leading to the Ming Tomb. There is not a single miscellaneous tree on the north slope, and the south side of the road is downhill, and the slope is full of leafy maple forests. Autumn leaves are old, climb the mountain and look around, as if drowning in the Red Sea, the red tide surging leaves sound like the mountain calling for a tsunami, the hearts and minds of the people, the stone horse and the stone sheep on both sides of the Shinto are high, the stone elephant stone Weng Zhong is like the monster swimming in the sea and the reef rises and falls from time to time, looms from time to time, looks at the Yangtze River in the east, the vast smoke and water are in the sky, and the dragon and tiger in Jinling are firm and solid in the west. Yuan Mei tour this scenic spot, because there is no pavilion embellishment, specially raised funds to build this "view of the maple floor", carved urn inserted in the sky heavy pavilion jade, set up a bright pavilion, the corridor around the ring, high in the ten thousand acres of maple forest is a grand view.

But at this moment, it is the middle of the night, the mountains are high and the moon is light and cold, the cold and dew are heavy, there are a few thin clouds moving slowly in the dark blue sky, and the mountains are undulating in the misty mist, as if countless ghosts and ghosts are jumping back and forth. The gloomy maple groves swayed restlessly in the breeze, and the huge stone carvings and beasts beside the road also rose and fell with the trees, accompanied by the noise of the maple forest like songs, crying and laughing, which looked extremely gloomy. Qianlong didn't say anything all the way, spurred and spurred, his eyes were in a trance, sometimes he was at a loss in his heart, and sometimes he felt inexplicably cold and indifferent. Seeing the dense torches in front of him, a turn of fire line enclosed in an ellipse, half oblique on the hillside, it seems that someone used a gold pen to draw a circle on the dark screen, Qianlong expected to be surrounded by the Fenglou, and his heart sank suddenly. Sure enough, Yin Jishan raised his whip on the side and said, "The front is it!" ”

A group of people whipped and galloped, and immediately arrived in front of Guanfeng Tower, Liu Yong had already been reported, and the torches were full of sweat to greet him, and he was about to salute, Qianlong waved his hand and said, "Excuse me." He got off the chrysanthemum blue mount. Yin Jishan rolled down and asked, "How is the situation?" Liu Tongxun stepped on the stirrup and dismounted, and instructed Liu Yong: "Whisper the order to go out, and all the torches will be extinguished!" What's your name? A thin circle is bright for Yi Ying to see! They are strong in martial arts, choose one place to stand out, and your circle will follow her? ”

"Yes!" Liu Yong hurriedly agreed, passed out the order, turned around and came back and said: "There are four women and one man upstairs, Yan Ruyun was stabbed by Huang Tianba in the back, and the injury was not light. That Han Mei was also stabbed by Huang Fuqing, and Yi Ying and the three of them were slightly injured. Now he is holding on to the building and refuses to answer. I thought, so desperately surrounded, until dawn rushed up to capture them alive. You can't fight at night, it's easy to give her a chance. ”

Qianlong looked at the black building and said nothing. Ji Yun said: "You can't wait until dawn. The momentum was too great, and the people of Nanjing were alarmed to come and watch, and it was very bad for these thousands of people to catch four or five people, and spread the word. The day of welcoming is approaching again, adding some rumors will damage the dignity of the scenery, and it is best if she can surrender. Did you shout? ”

"Shouted. She was silent! Huang Tianba, who was beside Liu Yong, was dressed in a short clasped tight-fitting suit, holding a sword in his hand, and said: "This thief woman is a bit evil - she rushed into the building several times, and there were tables, chairs and benches in it, so that people stumbled and climbed the horses, and they couldn't reach the staircase at all. Mao Xian - Lord Liu said that it was Qimen gossip. I also rushed in to look, and saw that it was a stool, and when I got closer, it was a wall, and it was turned over and over again...... Since he wanted to be captured alive, he couldn't shock the crowd, so he had to do it at dawn. While speaking, Liao Fuhua, the fourth Taibao under Huang Tianba, had already raised his knife and went downstairs to call for battle. He was a big black man, and his voice was thick and muddy, as if he were speaking through an altar, and he shouted in an urn voice:

"Listen to the surname Yi! You're a turtle in an urn now, what the fuck are you holding on? Since it is inevitable to die, why not come out and have a good fight with Lao Tzu, what is the meaning of being a turtle with a shrunken head? ”

Everyone listened quietly, and there seemed to be some movement upstairs. Suddenly, I saw a pair of partition windows open. But it was Yan Zhuyun who stood by the window, and pointed at Liao Fuhua: "Liao Laosi, what kind of hero are you?" Don't talk about Sect Master Yi, haven't we played together? Which of you with the surname Huang is my opponent? Tell you, Lao Tzu wants to marry the owner, and on the night of the cave room, you will be less noisy! ”

Yi Ying wants to marry Yan Ruyun at this moment! Everyone downstairs was stunned. Somehow, Qianlong was filled with jealousy, his heart was full of feelings, and he asked Liu Yong with a suppressed fire in his heart: "Is this Yan Ruyun the one who came from Yi Ying?" Liu Yong hurriedly said: "Yes! He surrendered because Yi Ying snubbed him, and he was close to another surnamed Hu, and he saved Yi Ying because of the old love. While speaking, Huang Tianba and his apprentices had already laughed loudly:

"It's really a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, and this will still support the façade for a happy event!"

"The turtle and the king are really a couple!"

"I'm laughing to death...... He didn't even light a candle, but went into the cave......"

"This time, Lao Yan Ke picked up a bargain, Yi Ying is probably a veteran of the cave house, I don't know how many men have been mixed with, and now it's Yan Ruyun's turn, hahaha......"

"You're not right, Lao Yan was soaked in the courtyard, and the bayberry sores on the bottom were sparsely grown, and it was a flower with a dog dung heap on the ......."

Coaxing, mocking, scolding, and insulting, and the words are filthy and unbearable. In the midst of the commotion, suddenly there was a flash of light upstairs, and a torch was lit, and then another was lit. The crowd didn't know what they were doing, and they all fell silent for a while. I heard Yan Ruyun shout in surprise: "Shougong Sha!" He suddenly laughed and jumped in the shadow of the torch as if he were crazy, and shouted: "Yi Ying is an innocent woman—she is mine!" She's mine! I'm so happy, I'm so blessed—I'm so blessed! The hoarse cries were filled with joy, sorrow and despair, and made people shudder when they heard it late at night.

"Liu Yong, you personally shouted," Qianlong said coldly, "Say that Longebelle is here, and ask her if she would like to say a few more words to me?" ”

Liu Yong glanced at his father, and Liu Tongxun, Yin Jishan, Ji Yunjin and others were silent. He turned around and called out according to Qianlong's original words. Seeing Yi Ying standing still near the window, she seemed to look down and asked, "What else do you have to say?" ”

"I've discussed it with several ministers, and you have forgiveness." Qianlong said quietly. "It's not too late to repent. Take refuge in sin, and I will save your life! ”

…………

"That-" Yi Ying finally spoke, "And Brother Yan, what about my brothers and sisters?" Can you forgive them all? ”

Qianlong tightened his lips, and this time it was his turn to be silent. After a long time, he said: "Do you think that if you don't surrender, they can be spared?" ”

“…… I ask you, why did you pardon me? ”

…………

Seeing that Qianlong was silent and barely thought about it, Yi Ying immediately said, "Thank you." We're at the end of our fate......" he said, closing the window.

"Burn her!" Qianlong's cheek muscles twitched slightly, and he said coldly. Liu Tongxun and several people were relaxed in their hearts. This is really the easiest and cleanest way to deal with it. Liu Yong gave an order, and hundreds of arrows dipped in oil and fire shot in rows towards Guanfeng Tower.

The fire, almost upstairs and downstairs at the same time. Pillars, doors and windows, railings, pavilion columns, flat seat bucket arches, outer eaves bucket arches, groove lifts, stained with oil place fire, like a gorgeous colored flower, through the floor up and down flickering, jumping suddenly, suddenly banging on the ground, the flames are connected into a piece, the whole building becomes like a flame mountain, the maple forest around the peaks and peaks shines a piece of red. In the blazing fire, thousands of people watched together, but no one jumped off the building to escape. I saw a few figures on the window, staggering and stumbling as if they were drunk, and as if dancing in the fire. Several female voices sang faintly in the roaring sound of Bi Peeling:

Blood Flower! Destroy the wind and rain, and break the soul to plant who...... The Han mound bases are all on the green road, and the thrilling princes turn into yellow sand. The wind blows the yellow sand, connecting the heaven and the earth, looking back at the confusion and surprise...... Rolling red dust for a moment, mourning all beings, and helplessly scattering the world...... There is nowhere to return at the end of the world, but it still returns to the exquisite jade and turns into a blue blood flower......

In the song, the fire burned more intensely, the white, red, red and yellow five-color flowing gold rushed straight to the nine skies, and there was a loud bang, the top of the mountain pavilion collapsed, and the high-rise buildings fell down like red charcoal that was burned softly, and the flames were on fire, and the sparks that exploded were peeled in the air, and the calligraphy and painting paper ashes were hovering and fluttering in the air like crows......

"Let's go back. The achievements of Huang Tianba and others, Liu Yong Guben wrote a ...... "It wasn't until the building collapsed that Qianlong's heart was as tight as boiling water in a pot of boiling water that he relaxed, and he felt that his palms were cold and sticky, and he was full of cold sweat." He muttered: "The gentleman is not close to the cook, so he will be a cook today...... Find the ashes and bury them in Linggu Temple. Let's go...... I'm so tired today......"

But he couldn't sleep anyway. Returning to the governor's yamen qin yi hall qu hue lying on his back, Yan Hong Yingying saw that his eyes were blazing, busy lighting incense, and asked him to take a pill to calm the mind and requiem pill, and took off his coat while waiting, and the two of them didn't dare to sleep, so they opened a line next to the fence outside to listen to him. Listening to the slight roar of the wind outside, Qianlong reclined quietly on the big pillow, but his heart was like a thousand horses galloping and thousands of threads came to the lock of the ape, and it was difficult to take the reins of the horse, and the colorful flames in his mind were at one time, and the winding path of the Pilu Zen Monastery at the same time, the water moon and willows on the bank of the Qinhuai River, the heroic posture of Yi Ying galloping and fighting among the tens of millions of people in Pingyin County, and the silent look at each other under the big tree in front of the city...... Drove away one by one, and the other came again. Suddenly, I saw Yi Ying come in with the curtain open, holding a plum blossom in her hand, smiled at Qianlong, and said: "On the contrary, the nobles should get up and sleep, and Longbeile should sleep well......"

"Where did you break this plum?" Qianlong got up and smiled, "It was given to me, right?" Saying that, he took the plum branch, carefully stroked the petals and smelled the fragrance, Yi Ying smiled: "I am looking for something from the plum garden, I am leaving, I have a friendship, and I am here to say goodbye." I am afraid that it is not rare to send you 10,000 taels of gold, so I will send this plum. Qianlong nodded with a smile, "Let's go?" Where are you going? ”

"Go to Mukden...... Didn't you point out that? ”

In a trance, Qianlong had already remembered and sighed: "I have a lot to think about when I talk to you in Taoyedu. A generation of rivers and mountains to observe the number of qi, Chongzhen is not the king of the country, Wen Tianxiang Shi Kefa is not the minister of the country, or the country. Only if the monarch and the minister are not the materials of the country, can they be relied on. ”

"I also think a lot......" Yi Ying's expression was a little gloomy, and he sat opposite Qianlong, "There is no end to the number of Great Qing Qi, and it is useless to toss it." You're just talking about officialdom, and what kind of officialdom is angry now, it's about clearer than I know; There is also a popular spirit, after a long period of peace, there will be a lot of right and wrong; There is too much disparity between the rich and the poor, the rich have a hundred years of clans, and they have to bully the common people in the nest, and there are more and more extremely poor people, so they want to die with the rich. There is such a saying in the "Book of Songs", what does 'I die with you' not refer to this? You are like Yongzheng Ye, the power of nine cows and two tigers to bring back the rule of the officials, and it is only a little delayed, right? ”

Qianlong smiled and said, "You said it mildly, imagine painting a frightening picture. Now it is a bit of a bad thing, but the imperial court donation is not heavy, the livelihood is multiplying, and the annual income is more than four or five times that of Kangxi's hands, which is still the number of prosperous people. The world of extreme prosperity is like a big tree, the tree is also big and the shade is also big, you are the person under the shade of the tree, and the sun has not been exposed. It is because of this that I forgive you. Yi Ying smiled: "You have a good analogy." I also have an analogy, the peak of the world is like reaching the top of a mountain, no matter which direction you take it, it is a downhill slope. It's like some people, walking into the valley at the bottom of the pot, no matter which way they go, it's an uphill slope. Everyone walks on the opposite side, and the yin and yang qi are staggered, and the cycle repeats, but that's it. ”

It seems that between them and Tang'er are playing Hangzhou West Lake together, Yingying and Honglai Niang are in the same boat, the spring breeze is rippling, the lake shore is purple and red willows hanging like silk, the reflection of the Leifeng Pagoda on the broken bridge of the Su Causeway is swaying, the flat lake is like a mirror, the water is green like a singing fan and dancing sleeves, someone behind him patted his shoulder proudly, looked back but I don't know when Yi Ying was also on the boat, looking at Qianlong and smiling, Qianlong asked in surprise: "How did you get here?" ”

"I'll sing you 'Blue Blood Flower'......" Yi Ying said, "Isn't my song good?" ”

Qianlong suddenly realized that Yi Ying had been burned to death in Guanfeng Tower, between Zhang Huang, Tang'er and several people were gone, only Yi Ying, Qiao Song, and Yan Ruyun approached him with a smile. In a hurry, he shouted: "Bartle, Duanmu Liangyong!" Where's the guards?! ”

"Hooray, hooray...... You're in a nightmare......"

…… Qianlong shivered and woke up, but he was still in the Qinyi Hall, which was originally a dream of Nanke. Xiaofeng entered through the window, the iron horse under the eaves was deaf, and Yan Hong and Ying Ying were kneeling in front of the wooden stepping feet and staring at themselves worriedly. When I think back to my dream, it seems to be in my eyes.

For half a month, Qianlong seemed depressed, reviewing the chapters every day, and did not receive people. In addition to ordering Liu Tongxun to step up the investigation of Gao Heng Qiandu's two cases of bribery, the edict "The leader of the bandits, Yi Yingyu, and those who surrender to the officials above the head of the Xiangtang Hall on their own, will not be arrested and punished, and the rest of the disciples will not be asked", and also issued a holy decree, ordering Lu Zhuo to repair the Yellow River channel from Gaojiayan to Qinghe as soon as possible, and ordering the governors of the five provinces of Gansu, Shaanxi, Jin, Henan, and Anhui to protect the embankment of the Yellow River in their own territory in addition to making every effort to help the flood and drought victims. He also ordered Hedong and Hexi to quickly prepare grain and cattle tools, and to buy credit for poor households who are unable to plant in autumn, "all localities will plant in autumn and winter in winter, and the governor of the province will instruct the local government to settle down with all their might, and one person will die of cold and starvation, that is, he will be demoted to the test." For those who lead to civil revolt due to ineffective responsibility, I will not forgive the crime of negligence by locking Datuk and curing it! He also ordered the Fu Jianshe Navy Division to investigate, "Specially prevent the nuisance of the Japanese bandits ashore, and investigate the traitors along the coast who collude with the water bandits, and those who bring goods out to sea without authorization will be killed and arrested." As for those officials who seek huge profits and are not afraid of death, and who associate with thieves and criminals, they will practice the law immediately! "The words of the Taoist will are harsh, and even if they are close to the courtiers, there is no ridicule.

He was in a state of panic, and only showed up when he entered the city on the eighth day of August, and then moved to the palace under the Jiming Temple. On August 15, the Governor Yamen treated the gentleman Yi Lao with wine, accepted the kneeling bow during the banquet, only exchanged a few words with Zhang Tingyu, asked about the diet and daily life, and gave everyone a few words of encouragement, such as "The owner of the gentleman is the foundation of the imperial court. I hope that I will make a fortune and give to the poor widely, so that the local people can live and work in peace and contentment, which is a blessing for you." Persuade three glasses of wine, that is, leave the table with a smile. Every day, I only go to the Queen Mother's place to say hello in the morning and evening, and I read the chapter at the queen's place. Nala and several other concubines came to ask for peace from time to time under the pretext that Queen Fucha was sick, and changed their methods to please Qianlong, Qianlong was not angry, but he didn't stick to them, he just smiled and said: "Busy." There are too many case files accumulated, so you just have to accompany Galeries Lafayette to visit the temples and temples and scenic spots. Deal with the innocence, let's go to Suzhou, Hangzhou, Yangzhou, Haining and other places to have a good time, and you will be satisfied. ”

In the early morning of August 27, Yin Jishan received Fu Heng's recital, stood up after just one glance, and hurried to see Ji Yun. He was about to go to Xi'an immediately, his family had already moved out of the governor's yamen, Ji Yun lived in the inner courtyard where he originally lived, and he was still in the north of the north study. In addition to the original team of the governor's yamen, the royal forest army and the eunuchs of the internal affairs government from Beijing are also responsible for guarding them. The people are very mixed, each has its own duties, and it took a few posts to get out of the moon cave gate of the west courtyard, but I saw Hongtian swaying from the north study. Yin Jishan stood stunned and said, "Lord Wang, you scared me!" When did you arrive in Nanjing? Why didn't Ah Gui even know a letter, it's really ......" said and hit Qian'er, "The slave Yin Jishan knocked on the master Jin An!" ”

"I'm the master." Hongyang smiled, just like his usual casual appearance, and did not help Yin Jishan, knocked Yin Jishan's head with the handle of the fan, and said: "Long live the master is our master!" - It's because I don't let Gui say that I have an excerpt to hand it to Banzai. I came with my mother-in-law, and I brought a mother-in-law, who was from Salopon—how's that, it's lively enough? As soon as he raised his hand, Yin Jishanfang stood up and asked, "Are you going to see Ji Xiaolan?" - the minion is a little confused, Salopen - "Don't talk about this, let's go- what do you see Xiaolan?" ”

"Sixth Master Fu has been assassinated." Yin Jishan said.
