Qianqing Palace, have some food.
The child Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty was eating the Manchu-Han banquet boredly. He was not eating alone, but was eating with his grandma Bumu Butai.
The old woman dotes on her grandson the most. Whatever she thinks is delicious, she will ask Aunt Su Ma and Aunt Zhang to give a portion to Kangxi and Fuquan. But what this grandma likes to eat may not necessarily be eaten by her grandson. Fortunately, Fuquan was there to help him cope most of the time, but today Fuquan disappeared again, and Kang Mazi had to enjoy the food the old lady asked him to eat by himself. I was full after a while...
But in the eyes of the old lady, how can her grandson ever have enough to eat? Moreover, Kangxi was still a thin man, which made people feel distressed just looking at him. He had to eat more!
At this time, the old lady used her chopsticks to pick up a bun with suet and vegetable stuffing made by Zhang Laobao (that is, Zhang Zhongqing). She took a bite and it still tasted the same... The old lady showed a sweet smile and said to her side Aunt Zhang, who was serving, said: "Xiaoyu, bring two vegetable steamed buns to the emperor."
"Hey." Zhang Xiaoyu responded, picked up a plate, picked up two large buns with chopsticks, and sent them to the little emperor, "Your Majesty, please use them slowly."
Kangxi took a look at the buns... they were stuffed with suet and vegetables and had a strong smell! I usually eat just one, but now I eat two at a time! How can this be done?
"Xuan Ye, eat quickly." When the old lady saw Kang Xi staring at the two buns and "drooling", she said with a smile, "If you haven't eaten enough, you still have more!"
Kangxi really couldn't eat anymore, so he had to say to the old lady: "Ma Ma, save two for Fuquan. He must have missed his meal because of something happened. In the afternoon, he had to practice riding and shooting with his grandson, so he was hungry. But no."
"I'm not hungry," Bumbutai said with a smile, "He is eating and drinking with Xiao Yinzi, Xiao Baozi and the others in the arrow pavilion to the north of the imperial kitchen. It's really lively."
Kangxi was so angry that his brother Fuquan was so unloyal that he went to play with others by himself!
"Xuan Ye," Bumbutai said with a smile, "Why don't you eat it? Do you think the suet vegetable steamed buns that Mama picked for you are not delicious? It doesn't matter if they are not delicious. There are also solid steamed buns here, but to be honest, one Come on, how about a cage for you?"
"No, no, that's not necessary." Kangxi quickly picked up the suet vegetable bun and stuffed it into his mouth... This solid bun was military rations! It's big and hard, and one can last a whole day if eaten. If Kangxi didn't eat it, the old lady would nag him and say he had forgotten his roots, saying that Emperor Taizong and Dorgon gnawed on that thing when they were marching and fighting!
As soon as he said this, Kangxi was so hard-headed that he had to eat one.
Kangxi had eaten a half-cooled mutton fat bun and was about to eat the second one when Fuquan's voice suddenly came from outside the Qianqing Palace: "Ma Ma, Your Majesty, I'm late..." Something happened to me and I’m late!”
When Kangxi heard the news, he saw Fu Quan, who was wearing a blue mandarin jacket and a melon skin hat, jogging all the way there with a happy face... It seemed that he, Xiao Yinzi, Xiao Baozi and the others had a good meal. !
"Where is Xiao Yinzi?" Bumbutai suddenly asked at this time, "Why didn't he come with you to pay your respects to the emperor?"
Kangxi also noticed that Cao Yin was not here at this time, "Yes, where is Cao Yin? Why didn't he come?"
"Ma Ma, Your Majesty, he has something to do. Come back later..." As he spoke, Fuquan looked around mysteriously.
"Get out of here!" Bumbutai understood what his grandson meant. He smiled and ordered all the eunuchs and maids waiting on him to get out. Then he said to Aunt Zhang, "Xiaoyu, please go outside and watch."
This is a conspiracy to rebel!
Zhang Xiaobao's sister was also a smart aunt. She responded first, then looked around to make sure that the other maids and eunuchs had left. She was the last one to exit and closed the door.
Seeing that everyone was gone, Fu Quan came up with a sneaky head and lowered his voice: "Your Majesty, I found a master when I entered Dong'an Gate today!"
"Expert? How high is it?" Kangxi was also interested. He was currently short of experts!
"It's... so tall!" Fuquan raised his arms exaggeratedly, "He's a head taller than me!"
"Hey, you're tall!" Bumbutai said with a smile, "A master needs to have good kung fu!"
"Mother Huang, his kung fu is also amazing!"
Bumbutai asked: "How does it compare to your palace guard Guanyin Bao? He is a wrestling master from Zhengbai Banner Mongolia."
Fuquan stretched out a finger and said, "One move higher!"
"Just one move?" Kangxi said, "That's not much better!"
"With one move, Guanyin Bao was kicked to the ground... Cao Yin ran to find the imperial doctor at this moment, so he didn't follow."
"What?" Bumbutai was surprised, "Knocked down Guanyin Bao with one move?"
Kangxi was also shocked: "Why is it so powerful? How did he fight?"
Fuquan lifted up his robe, raised his right leg, and gestured for a kick, "That's it... the kick was so high that it hit Guanyin Bao's chest, and he was knocked over with one kick!"
"You're throwing a kick with a kick?" Kangxi frowned, "Isn't this a shame?"
"Soldiers never tire of deceit!" Fuquan said, "And this master's kicks are very fast, like lightning. Before I even started, Guanyin Bao was still shaking his arms, and he kicked him... This skill is real when you see it!”
Kangxi's eyes widened, "This is a sneak attack! Are you shameless?"
"As long as you can win, why do you want to lose face?" Fu Quan said with a smile, "This master has been on the battlefield and killed people. He is also very good at archery. Before he fell, he even competed with Guanyin Bao in the archery pavilion. He was able to shoot consecutively. Shoot... thirty steps away, twenty consecutive shots hit the target, fast and accurate, the shot was powerful, the arrow penetrated a large section, Guanyin Bao was no match for him."
"This is quite impressive," Kang Mazi said, "I wonder how his riding and shooting skills are?"
"According to the master himself, his riding and archery skills are also extremely good, and he has even more powerful abilities than riding and archery!"
"More powerful than riding and shooting? What kind of ability is that?"
"He can ride on horseback and dance with a spear, and he can use a spear that is 1.6 feet long!" Fu Quan said and gestured with his hands, "Prick him here, and then switch to the other side and do it again. It's amazing!"
Bumubutai nodded, "If it's true, he's quite capable! By the way, Fuquan, you've been talking and making gestures for a long time, but you haven't even said what the name of this master is, where he comes from? Is he in the flag?"
"Huang Mama, he is a member of the Han Army under the Zhengbai Banner. His surname is Wang, his name is Wang Zhongxiao, and his father is Wang Fuchen!"
"It turns out that Wang Fuchen's son!" Bumbutai frowned, "No wonder he is so good at martial arts and so shameless..."
When Kangxi heard what Bumubutai said, he also frowned and asked, "Mother Huang, do you think this Wang Zhongxiao is unreliable?"
Bumbutai snorted: "I don't know whether this young man is reliable, but the old man Wang Fuchen is definitely unreliable!"
"Mother Huang thinks Wang Fuchen might be from Obai?" Kangxi asked.
Bumbutai shook his head: "If he were from Obai, he wouldn't have been a general soldier for more than ten years and couldn't be promoted... He was from Zhengbai Banner, and he was from Azig in the early years. As a guard, it’s impossible to take refuge with Obai.”
"Mother Huang thinks Wang Fuchen is Wu Sangui's son?" Kangxi asked again.
"It's hard to say... Wu Sangui's subordinates are all unreliable people!" Bumbutai turned to look at Fuquan, "Fuquan, how did you meet this Wang Zhongxiao? "
"Mother Huang, when I entered Dong'anmen this morning, I saw him, Brother Yin, and Little Baozi going to Dong'anmen together, and that's when I met him."
Bumbutai said: "Wang Fuchen also Bao Hanjun of Zhengbai Banner, he is very familiar with Baozi Zhang, and he and Cao Yin's mother-in-law have both worked as Baozi in Azige Mansion, so they have known each other for a long time. His son knows Baozi Zhang. Brother He Yin and the others are not surprised either...but why did Wang Zhongxiao come to Dong'anmen? Does he have errands in the palace? "
"He came into the palace with a sign indicating that he was walking in the imperial kitchen. He said he wanted to learn how to make steamed buns under Zhang Baozi."
"Pfft..." Bumbutai was amused, "You're just talking nonsense!"
Kangxi asked in confusion: "How old is he this year? Should he choose to worship Tang A? If he is really that capable, it is not an exaggeration to choose a bodyguard. A worship Tang A is a sure shot, learn how to make buns." Well?"
"Xuan Ye, that kid is talking nonsense," Bumbutai said with a smile, "This kid probably followed Little Baozi and Brother Yin to the imperial dining room to eat and play... By the way, this kid Is it going to be a wedding ceremony next month?"
"Yes," Fuquan said, "He came all the way back to Beijing from Yunnan to participate in next month's audition. He just arrived yesterday."
"Yesterday?" Kangxi frowned.
Bumbutai looked at his grandson and asked, "What's wrong?"
Kangxi's pockmarked face softened a little: "Then he came with Wu Guogui, right?"
"Yes," Fuquan nodded, "He also said that he has a good relationship with Wu Guogui and Wu Yingqi's sons. What are they... classmates at Yunnan Jiangwu Hall, Heping Xiwang Fanxia and Yungui Lvying The disciples have learned together the Four Books and Five Classics, the art of war, the formation of marches, and the real skills of fighting in battle. His archery and horseback riding skills were learned in Yunnan."
"Then he is really Wu Sangui's man!" Emperor Kangxi frowned and looked at Bu Mu Butai, "Huang Ma Ma, do you think this person can still be used?"
Bumubutai smiled and said: "He has a good relationship with Wu Sangui's grandsons, but that doesn't mean he is Wu Sangui's person! He is Wang Fuchen's son, and he is also the leader of the White Banner Han Army...Xuan Ye, you Think about it carefully, why did he come to Beijing with Wu Guogui? After he came to Beijing, why did he follow Xiao Baozi and Cao Yin into the palace to have dinner? After meeting Fuquan, why did he work so hard to perform? "
"Huang Ma Ma, he doesn't know that I am Prince Yu." Fuquan reminded.
Bumubu chuckled and glanced at his eldest grandson, "Do you really think he is a fool?"
"Ah," Fuquan thought for a while, "Did you deliberately trick me into playing?"
Bumu Butai nodded: "How could Wang Fuchen's son be a fool? If he was really a fool, he wouldn't let a fool come to Beijing to apply for the job... How far is it from Yunnan to Beijing? He gave it to the superiors The assistant leader wrote a letter and said that he would not come unless his son came. But Wang Fuchen's son just came. He entered the palace on the second day after arriving in Beijing. It was because he happened to meet you, Prince Yu, outside the Dong'an Gate... ...What does this mean?”
Fuquan was a little angry: "This means that Wang's stomach is full of spoiled intestines!"
Bu Mu Butai looked at Kang Xi.
Kangxi said: "Mother Huang, maybe Wang Fuchen wants to find an opportunity to join me!"
Bumbutai laughed: "Xuan Ye, will you accept it or not?"
Kangxi thought for a while and said: "Although he cannot be from Ao Bai, Ao Bai and Wu Sangui are obviously in collusion...so my grandson wants to see it again, and if possible, test it again." Look at this Wang Zhongxiao."
Bumbutai nodded: "It needs to be tested!"
Fuquan asked: "How to test?"
Bumbutai said: "I will arrange it..."
