The next morning, Wang Zhongxiao, who was about to have a happy wedding, had already cleaned himself up and walked into the guard's stall in high spirits. Before he had time to see who was inside? He heard his master Doron almost laughing.
"Good disciple, you are here... Your Majesty has sent people to inquire a few times. I just want to ask if you, the great hero who drove away Obei, are here?"
"Apprentice, please pay your respects to master!" Wang Zhongxiao hurriedly gave Duolong a gift of 1,000 yuan. Although he himself was already a confidant of the little emperor, he had a close relationship with Duolong and Mingzhu, the two masters and comrades. It still needs maintenance. Only by forming a loyal party together can we better "end the Qing Dynasty"!
Duolong leaned his body forward, stretched out his right hand to lift Wang Zhongxiao up, and then said with a smile on his face: "Hurry up and see the emperor with your teacher... Just now my teacher and your pearl The teacher has inquired about it. The emperor asked the cabinet to draft a decree yesterday. He will make you the minister of the house and the admiral of the nine gates. You will also be given the title of first-class Adahahafan (captain of light vehicles). He will also make you the first-class bodyguard. The leader of the sticky pole, grant him the worldly title of Labulha (Captain of Cavalry)!"
The rewards Kangxi gave to Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao had been agreed upon a long time ago, but Wang Zhongxiao still showed a look of surprise: "First-class bodyguards, and worldly positions... That's three levels in a row!"
Duolong smiled and said: "It's not over yet! The emperor also gave you and Amma a big house inside Beijing and a farm outside Beijing! In addition, your whole family has been carried into the Zhengbai Banner Han Army! "
"What? You gave me a house? And a farm? This is great!"
Wang Zhongxiao looked like he had made a fortune - a big house in Beijing's second ring road plus large estates in the third and fourth rings. If this is to be passed down to the 21st century, how much will it cost?
Duolong felt a little strange when he saw his happy look... Although the houses in Beijing were rare, they were nothing to the emperor's confidants and state ministers like Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao.
As for Zhuangzi outside the city, the imperial court gave only a few hundred acres. How much was it worth? Not to mention that Wang Fuchen will be appointed as a governor later. Even if he is a little greedy when he is the admiral of the Nine Gates, he can buy thousands of acres of land in Zhili!
But Duolong didn't teach his disciple how to be greedy for money and buy property... The important thing now is to meet the emperor, and corruption can be taught slowly.
"Disciple, don't just be happy. Go with your master to see the emperor...The emperor still has important tasks to entrust to you and your Amma!" As Duolong spoke, he took Wang Zhongxiao with him. The two of them walked out of the guard's stall together, then entered the heavily guarded Qianqing Gate, then turned a corner and arrived at the South Study Room. There are quite a few guards on duty at the entrance of the south study room today. The leader is Guanyin Bao. The little boy Cao Yin is also among them, but judging by his rank, he is already a third-class guard!
Seeing Wang Zhongxiao coming with Duolong, Cao Yin ran into the south study room like flying, and then heard his child's voice: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Wang Datou and Duolong are here together!"
Then came the voice from Kangxi's voice, which was in the process of changing his voice: "Quickly tell them to come in!"
"Hey!" Then came Xiao Guizi's voice again, "Announce the minister of bodyguard Duolong and the Lanling bodyguard Wang Zhongxiao!"
Master Duolong and Wang Zhongxiao hurriedly walked into the south study room happily, and together they saluted Kangxi, who was about to burst into laughter with a pockmarked face.
"Datou, Duolong, please stay flat."
Kangxi was so kind today that he directly called Wang Zhongxiao by his nickname!
Wang Zhongxiao quickly got up, smiled and stood there, waiting for the reward.
Kangxi saw his festive look and asked with a smile: "Datou, your master Duolong has told you, right?"
"I said it, I said it." Wang Zhongxiao nodded repeatedly.
Kangxi said: "Then I won't repeat it. As for the land and house given to you, let your teacher Mingzhu arrange it for you... He is now also the minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Wang Zhongxiao looked overjoyed again. After thanking him, he stood up again at Kangxi's greeting.
Kangxi smiled and picked up another booklet and asked Xiao Guizi to hand it to Wang Zhongxiao: "Datou, this is my handwritten edict for your Ama... In addition, there will also be an edict issued from the Ming Dynasty. You, Ama, will be the imperial envoy to arrest Obai and his traitors!"
"Your Majesty," Wang Zhongxiao took the note from Xiao Guizi and put it away without looking at it. Then he said, "The monks at Qingliang Temple want the Queen Mother's decree..."
Kangxi smiled and said: "The Empress Dowager will ask Aunt Sumala to go to Qingliang Temple with you... I have already said in the letter I sent you that when Aunt Sumala arrives in Taiwan After Huaizhen, both you and your son will obey her command!"
Wang Zhongxiao hurriedly knelt down to receive the order again - it was not good to be the emperor's confidant, it was too hard on his knees!
Kangxi waved to Wang Zhongxiao again and asked him to stand up and come forward. It seemed that he was going to have a face-to-face discussion.
Wang Zhongxiao hurriedly stepped forward, dropped his hands and stood beside Kangxi with his body bowed.
Kangxi said: "This time you take Xiao Yinzi and Xiao Guizi with you and let them make some contributions! When you come back from Wutai Mountain, I will let you go to raid Ao Bai's house together!"
Copying Obai's home...
Wang Zhongxiao looked surprised again and immediately knelt down to thank him again.
But he actually knew very well in his heart, what did Aunt Sumala do in Mount Wutai? What are Xiao Guizi and Cao Yin doing? The former should go to see Shunzhi, while the latter, needless to say, must be monitoring him and Wang Fuchen.
Although Kangxi called him "Big Head" affectionately, he never mentioned Shunzhi's stay on Mount Wutai... Obviously, this matter had to be kept secret! Except for a few close confidants, no one else can know.
As for Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao, it seems that they have not yet reached the level of "true confidants"!
But even if they were "true confidants", they would definitely not be able to get the old emperor Shunzhi to hand over the old loyal minister Aobai... The most they could get from Shunzhi was a ducal court dress stained with a lot of blood!
...
Lagu Sumala, the old lady, was indeed the "true confidant" of Kangxi and Bumubutai. Early in the morning the next day after Wang Zhongxiao was promoted to the first-class bodyguard, she went with Zhang Zhongxiao without even waiting for him to take over the job of Captain Nian. Xiaoyu took a dozen male and female slaves, as well as Cao Yin and Xiao Guizi, to the Bean Sprout Alley in a carriage, and asked Cao Yin to pull out Wang Zhongxiao who was still awake.
Wang Zhongxiao didn't know La Aunt Suma very well. He just saw a fat old lady who smelled a bit smelly, being supported by his alternate stepmother, Zhang Xiaoyu, standing grandly under the hanging flower door of his house.
Looking at the size, the smell, and the aura, it goes without saying that she must be Sumala Aunt.
Wang Zhongxiao knew that this Sumala was no ordinary aunt, but a third-rank aunt with a chaste appearance in the Cining Palace. She was also a close confidant of the Empress Dowager, who was as close as a sister. Normal ministers and ministers would have to fawn over her.
"Junior, please greet Aunt Sumala and Aunt Zhang!"
Wang Zhongxiao hurriedly went up to say hello, but did not dare to neglect at all...
Aunt Sumala was quite polite and extended her right hand to help Wang Zhongxiao to stand up. Then she looked at the tall young man and said with a smile: "Hey, it really looks exactly like that living Lu Bu when he was young."
The old lady smiled happily when she said "when Lu Bu was young". Wang Zhongxiao was worried about Wang Fuchen, but he still smiled on his face: "Auntie, have you eaten? Zhang Xiaobao yesterday Knowing that I came all the way back, he brought me several large steamed buns, and there are quite a few left... If you don't mind, I'll ask my aunt to heat them up."
"I don't dislike it, I don't dislike it... Baozi Zhang's buns are the Empress Dowager's favorite, how could I dislike them?" Aunt Sumala said with a smile, "But I just ate them at Xiaoyu's house, Just bring some cold buns and come with me. If you hit the road earlier, you can reach Shanxi earlier. Your Majesty and the Empress Dowager are still waiting to see Oboi!"
"Auntie said it's important to capture Oboi!"
Aunt Sumala smiled and nodded: "Then clean up quickly and let's leave now... Tell me about the situation in Qingliang Mountain in Mount Wutai on the way. I haven't been there for a while!"
"Auntie, did you often go to Qingliang Mountain to burn incense?" Wang Zhongxiao asked with a smile.
"Of course!" Aunt Sumala replied with a smile, "I am familiar with the Eighteen Arhat Monk of Qingliang Temple... When we arrive at Wutai Mountain, we will take Xiao Guizi and Xiao Yinzi up the mountain together to meet that If you talk to the Eighteen Arhats carefully, you will definitely be able to bring Oboi back."
