Xin Han hit a baji fist in front of Ruidong, he deliberately didn't use all his strength, but even this made Ruidong full of praise, saying that this level is considered to be the top class even among the imperial guards.

Even Ruidong secretly had the idea of wanting to take Xin Han as his confidant, of course, it was too early to say, and he had to observe for a long time and find out the details of Xin Han before he could make a final decision.

The imperial guards were established at the beginning of the Qing Taizu period, and the treatment of the emperor's guards was very high, and their status was also very noble.

The use of guards as attendants of the Son of Heaven is also a special political treatment.

What's more, the guards have a much wider path to promotion and compensation than other personnel.

It is precisely because of the particularity of the guard system and the preferential treatment that it has become a shortcut for the children of Manchurian nobles and bureaucrats to obtain high-ranking officials without passing the examination.

Originally, Ruidong's voice in the selection of the imperial guards was not high.

But the current situation is different, Ao Bai is autocratic, and a large number of imperial guards are arranged into their own people, these people rely on Ao Bai as a backer to pay little attention to other guards, and even scolded and bullied, which led to many guards resigning and going home, and no powerful children are willing to take this shortcut to the south.

The imperial guards are in a kind of green and yellow time, so Ruidong can insert people into the guards, of course, it is not okay to insert them casually, the foundation must be clean, Xin Han just meets the conditions, the first is the flag man, and the second is the recommendation of the old brother of the former imperial guard, Ruidong dared to agree.

Ruidong's work efficiency is very high, and the next day he sent someone a set of official mansions and waist cards of the third-class guards in front of the emperor, and on the third day, he personally brought Xin Han to his post, so that Xin Han became a glorious third-class guard in the Forbidden City, and he was also an official of the fifth rank outside.

This speed is too fast, Ruidong's speed really surprised Xin Han, and then he suddenly realized.

It is estimated that the master behind Ruidong has exerted his strength, otherwise how can Ruidong alone do it so cleanly, as for who is his master? Who else could there be besides the fake Empress Dowager Mao Dongzhu who played Infernal Affairs in the deep palace?

Speaking of the Forbidden City, Xin Han is quite familiar, after all, he has been to this tour guide twice in later generations, and it is not as if Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden like Wei Xiaobao in the original book.

Xin Han was arranged to be on an errand in the imperial dining room and the other seven guards only stood on duty for one morning, ensuring the safety of the royal diet, and had a great responsibility, and in the afternoon, he took turns to rest but could not go home to listen to the work in the palace guards.

Two days passed in a flash, and the two days received a lot of goods, and the relationship with the guards was good, and I also met the legendary Zhang Gengnian and Zhao Qixian, these two people will be Wei Xiaobao's diehards in the future, and they have been following Wei Xiaobao to get promoted and make a fortune.

Among the guards, only the people of the Aobai family are above the top, but they don't pay much attention to Xin Han, a newcomer, who usually behaves highly, shouting and drinking to other guards, Xin Han sneered secretly in his eyes, these people can't jump for a few days, and Lao Tzu's future will fall on your master.

At noon that day, Xin Han was walking to the class room, thinking that Wei Xiaobao should also go to the capital in the next few days, and he didn't know when he would meet him in the palace, and his plan should be implemented as soon as possible, and he was thinking about hearing someone call him.

"Brother Xin, will you go play with your hands after eating in a while?" Xin Han saw that it was Niu Yonglu who was standing guard with his own class, this person is a good knife of the Eight Banners, and he has a hobby on weekdays to gamble a few times, and he is quite kind.

Xin Han was worried about how to find out the news, nodded and agreed immediately, after lunch, Niu Yonglu took Xin Han to a utility room, where there were several guards who were not on duty who were gambling, and there were many people who were excited to gamble and shout loudly.

The guards inside greeted Niu Yonglu with Xin Han coming, and asked the two to hurry in to place bets, and Xin Han saw that Zhao Qixian and Zhang Gengnian were also here, so they happily joined in.

The guards play Pai Gow, Xin Han does not know how to play, or Niu Yonglu taught him, although he played for the first time, but he was generous and did not care about winning or losing, and even deliberately took out the silver, a few cards in the past to get the favor of the guards called brother and brother, think about it, people are stupid, there is a lot of money, and it is not bad to lose, who doesn't like it.

At the end of the game, Xin Han lost a maximum of fifty taels of silver, which was not much for Xin Han, but it was not a small number for the guards, and the two who won the most were Zhang Gengnian and Zhao Qixian.

It's not that the two people are lucky, but Xin Han deliberately released the water, although he won't play, but he paid attention to the expressions of the two when he played cards, and the two of them sat in the village with joy that must have taken a good card, Xin Han followed more, and deliberately lost money, so the two won sixty percent of the money was contributed by Xin Han.

These two people are also particular about people, and after the end, they called Xin Han and Niu Yonglu and said that they wanted to treat them, and a few people came to a restaurant outside the palace to ask for a few good dishes and drank them.

When he drank to the head, several people had a better impression of this little brother under Xin Han's deliberate flattery, and they all patted their chests and said that they would cover him in the future, and Xin Han also took the opportunity to skillfully inquire about the situation in the palace, and a few people said a lot of various rumors and gossip.

But he didn't have a clue about the room where Kangxi practiced, which made Xin Han quite disappointed.

In the evening, Xin Han returned to the single house he bought in the capital, greeted Dodd and started his own efforts, these days he practiced boxing and never fell, although he reached the peak of Ming Jin, he can still feel that he has improved every day, and he should be reluctant to break through the dark energy.

After practicing boxing, he wiped his face with the handkerchief given by Dode and asked him to go down to rest, and sat in the gazebo in the courtyard and drank tea slowly, thinking about various clues and clues in his heart.

Suddenly, Xin Han's eyes lit up, and he thought of a clue, in the original book, Kangxi's room where he practiced martial arts had all kinds of dim sum, and he guarded the imperial dining room to know where these dim sums were delivered every day, although it was a little difficult, but it was not impossible.

I was really dark under the lights, and I couldn't even think of such the easiest way, and I couldn't help but laugh when I thought of it.

The next morning, when Xin Han was on duty, he paid attention to the situation in the imperial dining room, and carefully paid attention to which direction the eunuchs with snacks went, "This is not, this is sent to the Queen Mother, this is the Queen Mother's, this is the Imperial Concubine's"

"Hey, Brother Xin, do you like to eat snacks?" Niu Yonglu, who was opposite Xin Han, suddenly asked Xin Han.

Xin Han glanced at Niu Yonglu in surprise: "Brother Niu, why do you ask that?" ”

"Hehe," Niu Yonglu chuckled and quipped, "Your eyes are about to get into those dim sums." ”

Xin Han scratched his head embarrassedly: "Is it so obvious?" ”

"It's that obvious!" Niu Yonglu said with certainty, he didn't suspect that Xin Han had any bad intentions, poisoning the emperor or something was just a legend, you must know that the emperor, the queen mother and others ate everything that was tested for poison by special eunuchs, and the Qing Dynasty had never heard of a fool poisoning the imperial dining room since the founding of the country.

Xin Han's heart was like electricity: "Don't hide it from Brother Niu, I have had a problem since I was a child, I love to eat some snacks or snacks, and when I see delicious snacks, my soul is gone." ”

"You kid, how old are you and still have a gluttonous problem."

In the midst of Niu Yong's laughter, Xin Han skillfully shifted the topic to yesterday's gambling game, Niu Yonglu immediately came to his senses, forgetting what happened before, saying that whoever walked shit luck, won a lot yesterday, and one day Lao Tzu will definitely let him spit out with profits, and so on

Xin Han took the opportunity to ask: "Brother Niu, I heard that the father-in-law in this palace also has a lot of good betting, why didn't you see it yesterday." ”

Niu Yonglu pursed his lips and looked around at Wucai and whispered: "Those eunuchs who have no eggs are too childish, and they don't have that to say, but they look at the silver as if they are something, and they also start the game, but they can't pee in the same pit as our guards, and they are all playing elsewhere." ”

The two chatted about the time that passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye it was noon, and the two were about to go back on a business trip, and three little eunuchs walked out of the imperial dining room quickly, none of the little eunuchs had a tray in their hands, and there were all kinds of snacks in the tray, a total of more than ten dishes.

Xin Han looked carefully and saw that there were mille-feuille cakes, osmanthus cakes, minced meat cakes and other small snacks, which were very attractive.

"It's already lunch time, where are these snacks going to go?" Xin Han secretly pondered to himself, and suddenly someone patted him on the shoulder, it was Niu Yonglu.

"I said brother, you are quite a big person, a little ambitious, don't you, when you see your husband Hai, brother, I will drink my face and help you ask for a few things to eat? Let's go and eat. ”

Husband Hai is the father-in-law Hai who is in charge of the imperial dining room, the old eunuch who brought Wei Xiaobao into the palace, of course Xin Han knows.

Xin Han pretended to be embarrassed and smiled, and walked all the way with him.

As soon as he turned the corner, Xin Han said that his stomach hurt and he wanted to go out of Gong, and asked Niu Yonglu to go first without waiting for him, Niu Yonglu reminded him not to forget to play with his hands in the afternoon, and when he saw Xin Han agreeing, he let him go.

Xin Han hurriedly turned back, and saw that the eunuchs had not gone far, he hung far away, and followed all the way.

Xin Han was dressed as a guard, and no one asked him when he met people along the way, until he reached a side hall, and the eunuchs walked in for a while and then walked out empty-handed.

When a few eunuchs walked away, Xin Han looked left and right and saw that there was no one around, so he walked over, looked in along the crack in the door, and saw that the house was empty, so he pushed the door and walked in.

But the room was hollow, and there were several figures of cowhide leaning against the walls, and several large cloth bags hanging from the beams, which seemed to contain rice or sand, and there was only a table with a drapery hanging in front of it, and a dozen plates of pastries and pastries on the table.

Xin Han was overjoyed, ** not far from ten, it should be here, he observed and planned to wait for Kangxi's arrival here, but before solving the problem of food and clothing, he would have protested a long time ago when he had a bad stomach all morning.

Stretched out his hand and took a piece of osmanthus cake and chewed it in his mouth, and suddenly his mouth was full of osmanthus fragrance, not to mention that the things in the palace were good, and the cakes that put various additives in later generations could not be compared at all.

was eating when suddenly there was a sound of footsteps, from far to near, could it be that Kangxi came, Xin Han quickly lifted the table curtain and hid under the table.

The footsteps came closer and closer, and finally they reached the door, and then the door was pushed, and the person walked very lightly to the table.

Xin Han only saw a pair of feet wearing official boots under the table, these feet were very small and not like adults, thinking of Kangxi's age, he nodded secretly, it seems that the one outside is the future Kangxi Emperor.

Now Xin Han was only thinking about how he would appear, and he was a little nervous in his heart, and the owner of the foot walked to the table and then there was the sound of chewing and swallowing.

Xin Han was secretly amused, it seems that this Kangxi Ye is busy with political affairs, and he is hungry enough, he must not find that the dim sum has been stolen and eaten.

Just thinking about it, there was a sound of footsteps outside the side hall, it seemed that it was also coming here, Xin Han was curious about who was coming, could it be that which minister came to report the work, suddenly the table curtain lifted up and a smaller figure came in, holding a piece of minced meat in his hand.

Xin Han's heart tightened, was this discovered? But it was completely different from the meeting he set, and then a face wrapped in a white cloth appeared in front of him, damn, I suddenly realized in my heart that this was not Wei Xiaobao's appearance when he first entered the palace to prevent others from recognizing him as a fake eunuch.

At this time, Wei Xiaobao was also taken aback, where did he think that there were others under the table, his eyes widened, and he was about to exclaim, but he was covered by Xin Han's mouth and nose, and he was not let go until he recognized Xin Han and calmed down, and he gasped for breath for a while.

Wei Xiaobao saw Xin Han let go of himself and lifted the white cloth on his face to show his face, indicating that he was Wei Xiaobao.

Xin Han smiled at him, gestured with his hand to silence him, and pointed outside, signaling not to be discovered.

=====================

Hand over the recommendation ticket, or let Xin Han kill Wei Xiaobao now, and no one under the table will know anyway.
