When Qianlong heard this, his nose almost became angry.
"You don't want to be exiled, but you want to exile me to take revenge on me, right?"
"I can't keep my love for you for a day, so Ji Aiqing should come with me." Qianlong sneered, "Then and Aiqing, are you willing to accompany me in exile?"
"Yes, yes!" He Shen nodded repeatedly, "If I can't stay with the emperor, my servant will become haggard and worry about the emperor day and night.
Therefore, this servant is willing to accompany the emperor on his journey of exile, through fire and water, without any hesitation. Unlike some ministers who say they are loyal to the emperor and patriotic, but at critical moments they back off. "
"Well, I really like what I said to Aiqing." Qianlong nodded, "Ji Xiaolan, do you feel ashamed?"
"It's not like I can't go to your Majesty. I just ask the Emperor to agree to my two requests, and then I will fight to the death." Xiang Nan bowed.
"Speak!" Qianlong said.
"First, I have developed the habit of smoking dry cigarettes since I was a child, so I ask the emperor to allow me to take the cigarette bag with me on the road." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"That's right, bring it with you." Qianlong smiled.
"Second, in this exile, I will be accompanied by my lord, Lord He. Although I cannot escort each person with a stick of water and fire. But in order to ensure that the order is enforced, I also ask the emperor to reward me with a treasure for the purpose of supervision," Xiang Nan said again. .
"Bold Ji Xiaolan, you are guilty!" He Shen scolded him immediately after hearing this.
Qianlong waved his hand to stop He Shen, and then said to Xiang Nan, "Ji Aiqing, what treasure do you want?"
"I see that the fan in your hand is just right, Your Majesty." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
Qianlong was stunned for a moment, then nodded and gave this thing to Xiang Nan, "Then when do we set off and where are we going?"
"Your Majesty, this matter is only known to you, Mr. He and Ji Xiaolan. It should not be known to the fourth person." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said with a smile, "Please forgive me for keeping this secret for the time being."
When Qianlong heard this, he could only nod his head, "Okay, let's disperse the court!"
…
After the court ended, Xiang Nan returned to the thatched cottage and handed the royal fan to Xiaoyue, "Xiaoyue, go to Chunmanlou immediately, rescue a girl named Hong Xia, and then take her to Quyang."
"Sir, who is she and why do you want to save her?" Xiaoyue asked in confusion.
"Her father is Yu Shi Hong De Rui. Because he opposed the emperor's garden construction, he was exiled to Quyang to cut stones." Xiang Nan explained, "Hong De Rui may be in danger, so you take her there immediately. I will also take the emperor there, let's Overnight and covertly, we strive to rescue the Hong family father and daughter, and at the same time bring down Shang Rong, a corrupt official."
"So that's it, sir, I understand." Du Xiaoyue said immediately, "Then this fan is..."
"This is the imperial fan, which is equivalent to Shang Fang's sword!" Xiang Nan simply explained, "Keep it with you and show it out in critical moments. It should be of some use."
"Sir, since it is a gift from the emperor, can I give it away casually?" Su Qinglian asked worriedly, "If the emperor investigates, this will be a crime of beheading."
"There's nothing we can do about it. Qu Yang is in Zhili, and what Hong Derui offended is Shang Rong, the governor of Zhili. He can be said to be the master of everything in Zhili, and Xiaoyue is in great danger when saving people this time.
In comparison, when I am with the Emperor and He Shen, the chance of encountering danger is very small. Xiang Nan explained, "So Xiaoyue still holds the fan." As for whether the emperor will pursue the case, that is a matter for the future. "
Du Xiaoyue nodded excitedly.
Xiang Nan risked beheading and gave her the royal fan. This friendship really touched her heart.
…
Suddenly, Xiang Nan and He Shen came to the palace to find the emperor.
As soon as I arrived at Yangxin Hall, I saw eunuchs coming in and out, busy preparing things for the emperor's trip.
"Ji Xiaolan, do you want to check my belongings?" Qianlong asked with a smile.
Xiang Nan nodded, leaned over and took a look, and his eyes were immediately opened.
When the emperor went on a trip, he prepared two large boxes containing bedding, clothes, shoes and socks, wine utensils, tableware... almost everything, including two sets of ear picks.
Xiang Nan couldn't help laughing, "Your Majesty, are you preparing these two big boxes for me and Mr. He to carry them? Not to mention that we can't carry them, even if we can, we probably won't even be able to get out of the Forbidden City. I’m already tired and vomiting blood.”
"Then what's the matter, don't take it with you anymore?" Qianlong said displeased.
"Your Majesty, we can't even carry these." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "We are in exile, and it's just the three of us all the way. How do you think we can get these two big boxes that are so heavy?"
"Ji Xiaolan, you are too rude, are you serious?" He Shen said displeased.
"If it's a lie, it's better not to do it." Xiang Nan said with a frown, "Besides, we can't call him by his first name when we are out this time. Otherwise, exposing our identity will not be good for the emperor's safety.
According to Yi Chen, let’s give it a pseudonym. I am in charge of discipline. My name is Lao Ji. I discipline and discipline. Mr. He, your name is He Er..."
"He Er, why do you sound so unpleasant?" He Shen said displeased, "You sound like a monk, Xiao Er?"
"Hey, it's just a title, don't be so pretentious." Xiang Nan curled his lips and said.
Qianlong smiled and thought it was quite interesting, "Then Lao Ji, what should I call you?"
"Your Majesty, you can't choose your name randomly. I'll choose the word 'yellow' first." Xiang Nan smiled and said, "In addition, your status is distinguished. We are out this time, so we can no longer call you Long Live or Holy Lord, but a 'Master' You are worthy of the word '. Why don't you just call me 'Huang Sanye'!"
"Third Master Huang?! Well, he is quite majestic." Qianlong said with satisfaction.
Seeing that the emperor agreed, He Shen had no choice but to accept the pseudonym "He Er" and no longer struggled.
…
"Then where will Ji Xiaolan and the three of us go?" Qianlong asked again.
"I want to go south. Your Majesty, I watched the sky last night. There must be stories when I go south." Xiang Nan said with a smile.
"Why do I have to listen to you alone? Your Majesty, I suggest you go north." He Shen retorted.
"What's there in the north? It's either grassland or cattle and sheep. What's so strange?" Qianlong waved his hand and said, "I want to go east to see the sea."
"Your Majesty, this servant is doing this for your own good. The weather is getting hotter and hotter now. It would be cooler to go north." He Shen explained.
"I insist on going south. Your Majesty, please listen to me and let's go south." Xiang Nan insisted.
"Oh, this is troublesome. I want to go north, Banzai wants to go east, Lao Ji wants to go south, the three of them have three ideas!" He Shen frowned and said, "Who should listen to this?"
"Your Majesty, I have an idea. Let's give it a try." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "Whoever wins will listen to whoever says it."
"Come on, you are the most talented person in the world. Poems, songs, music, chess, calligraphy and painting are your specialties." He Shen immediately retorted, "To compete with bows, knives, stones, horses, steps and arrows, do you dare?"
"Well, how about we compete with something that no one is good at, firearms?" Xiang Nan suggested.
Qianlong and Heshen both nodded when they heard this.
