Save the Bachelor of Heaven

After returning to the capital, Xiang Nan and He Shen were sent to prison.

"Old Ji, you can do it. I kidnapped a girl when I went out." He Shen teased, "Calculation, this is the fourth one. Du Xiaoyue, Shi Xiangyun, Su Qinglian, here comes another Hong Xia, no wonder people say that you are a genius of Fengliu."

"Come on, He Er, you only have nine wives and concubines." Xiang Nan curled his lips and said, "Not counting your concubine and the lovers in Bada Hutong. If I were Fengliu, then you would be dirty. "

He Shen was embarrassed by him for a while, "Okay, okay, I can't say no to you. Then let me ask you, have you been bitten by lice these two days?"

"I don't care." Xiang Nan turned over and said.

"Hey, you don't know how it hurts, you are rough, very rough." Seeing that he knows how to smoke, sleep, and eat all day long, He Shen can't help flattening his mouth.

"What does a louse matter?" Xiang Nan smiled, "Only you... ah, the emperor's eyes were wrong, so he asked, is the emperor angry; the emperor smiled, and asked if it was a fake smile? You, There are too many painful things in life.”

"If a lice attracts you so much, you are unreasonable. I care about pain and itching." He Shen said dissatisfiedly, "If you all respect the emperor like me, we won't go out with the emperor for a while, but come back and die. Locked up in this damn place."

"It's all your fault." He Shen said again, "You have to go out with the emperor to play and go around, like me, to see the bright spring scenery, taste the folk delicacy, and have fun with the people , isn't it good?

He insisted on making some black dens with bitter and salty well water, dilapidated thatched houses and barns... Can the emperor not be blocked after seeing these? He is uncomfortable, will we feel better? "

"You're deceitful." Xiang Nan said contemptuously, "It's not enough for you to coax the emperor every day in the palace, and you don't let him see the truth when you go out. If things go on like this, how can the emperor be a wise king? How can he manage well? this country?

Heshen, Heshen, thanks to the fact that you are seeking fame by reading classics and history, you don't even know the words "family, country, and world". Live the common people in the world.

Except the emperor is yourself, what kind of official are you, what kind of scholar are you. Poor those lice will still bite you, eating your blood is also dirty blood, and eating your blood will make the lice look like a villain! "

"Hello, hello, you understand the righteousness, you serve the country and the people, but why are you locked up in this ghost place with me?" He Shen sneered.

"So what? I am open-minded here, without complaint or regret." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "I saved the father and daughter of the Hong family by myself, brought down the corrupt official Shang Rong, and sought justice for the people of the world. I have reached consummation. Unlike you, what else do you have besides official positions, money, and women?"

If the words are not speculative, He Shen has no choice but to shut up.

...

Meanwhile, in Nanshufang, Qianlong lost his temper with the officials.

After the two important ministers Xiang Nan and He Shen were imprisoned, he was greatly disappointed by the performance of other ministers.

No one can afford the errands of the household department, official department, and military aircraft department; the book repair work of the Sikuguan has also come to a standstill, and the entire court seems to be rusted and unable to move after leaving Heshen and Xiangnan. Naturally very dissatisfied.

"Every day, the minister is guilty, the minister is guilty, and you don't know how to do things just by pleading guilty, and you are all raised for nothing?" He couldn't help but scolded loudly.

"The minister is guilty!" The courtiers all knelt down in fright.

Seeing that they were still stubborn, Qianlong became dizzy with anger.

...

The next day, He Shen was singing Kunqu opera in the prison to relieve his boredom, while Xiang Nan was lying on the bed picking his ears.

"Ji Xiaolan, why do you pick out your ears every time I sing Kunqu opera?" He Shen couldn't help being angry when he saw this.

"I'll take out your outrageous voice, and I'll take it out for you." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Sage Confucius heard Shaoyin, but he didn't know the taste of meat in March. I listen to your voice, and I don't want to eat it for three days Meat, I'm disgusted."

"Do you understand Fengyue, hum!" He Shen couldn't help cursing after hearing this.

Xiang Nan laughed and sang loudly, "Laughing in the sea, surging tides on both sides of the river, remembering the present with the ups and downs..."

"What are you singing? The tune is not like the tune, and the tune is not like the tune?" He Shen couldn't help frowning.

Xiang Nan ignored him and sang louder.

At this moment, someone laughed and said, "Oh, Ji Xiaolan, you are quite heroic in singing mountain ditties."

When Xiang Nan and He Shen heard this, they quickly knelt down to greet them, "Criminal ministers and slaves join the emperor!"

"Okay, let's all get up." Qianlong said with a smile, "It seems that your life in this prison is not bad."

"I'm terrified!" Xiang Nan and He Shen hurriedly apologized.

"Okay, let's all get up." Qianlong smiled, "I have nothing to do, and I remembered the four great blessings passed down by the folks. The long drought meets the rain, and the old friend meets in a foreign land. The wedding night in the bridal chamber, and the time of the gold list.

Thinking about it, the summary is really correct. If ordinary people can spread it, they must be satisfied. But luck often turns into misfortune. Just like this time when I came out of the palace, I could happily kill corrupt officials and save honest officials, but you two made me unhappy. "

"My minister is dead!" Xiang Nan and He Shen bowed again.

"Okay, let me test you, add two words to the first two of the four great blessings, and change from lucky to great misfortune. Whoever does well will go out, and if he can't do well, stay here." Qianlong said again .

When He Shen heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, "Long live, should I add it before or after?"

"It doesn't matter, it's the same everywhere." Qianlong laughed.

He Shen thought for a while, then nodded, "Long live, the slave is here."

"Oh, fast, let's talk!" Qianlong nodded.

"A century-long drought brings rain, and a long-distance drought meets an old acquaintance." He Shen immediately said, "Long live, you think, a century-long drought meets rain, it has been a hundred years of drought, and there is no harvest, so what if it rains?

Thousands of miles away, meet old acquaintances. After walking 10,000 miles, people are old and their brains are numb. Even if you meet an old friend again, so what? "

"Well, it's not satisfactory, Ji Xiaolan, how about you?" Qianlong nodded, then asked Xiang Nandao.

Xiang Nan was about to answer, but He Shen stopped him, "Long live, the slave was added at the front just now. If Mr. Ji said anything else, he had to add it later."

"Well, it makes sense. Ji Xiaolan, you can add it. If you add it well, I will reward you." Qianlong laughed.

Xiang Nan nodded, "Long live thanks! My minister is, a long drought brings rain—a drop, an old friend in a foreign land—the creditor."

When Qianlong heard this, he laughed, "Okay, it's Ji Xiaolan. Okay, since you're all on the same page, get out of prison and don't stay here."

"Your Majesty, didn't you say there are rewards?" Xiang Nan laughed.

"Keep an inch!" Qianlong laughed, "Okay, I promise Xiaoyue to marry her for you."

"Long live thanks!" Xiang Nan was overjoyed when he heard that.
