Anyone familiar with this story?

Prince Yellow-Sky is assisting the Manchurian throne to catch bandits during
the very beginning of Emperor Kang Xi's rule in 1661.
While the throne is ruled by these northern invaders the so called bandits
are working to restore Chinese rule.

It takes place at the beginning of the Qing dynasty and is written in the latter half.
Looking for more details because it is an interesting story.

Yes. Well... no.
Prince Yellow-Sky is a colorful translation of Huang Tianba's name. 黃天霸
Huang is involved in the capture of a bandit who later became a part of the legend of praying mantis style of kung fu.
There is a movie 金鏢黃天霸 1987 that tells some of the stories of Huang.
