Chapter 64: Changing the Guard 'Going to the Study'
After Xin Han finished teaching martial arts, Xiao Xuanzi, that is, Kangxi said goodbye to the two and agreed to leave tomorrow, Wei Xiaobao took Xin Han to stay in the practice room for a long time, and talked carefully about the conversation between him and Gonggong Hai yesterday with Xin Hanzai.
"Master, what do you think are the four scriptures?"
Xin Han glared at him angrily: "Forty-two chapters, I have nothing to recognize in the future, and the province has been sold, and I don't know how much money I can help." ”
Wei Xiaobao laughed twice.
Xin Han said again: "It must be a treasure, I don't know what a treasure is, but what is remembered in the palace must be a great thing, if you get it in the future, don't hide it first, don't hand it over to Hai Dafu, even if you can't use it, you can still use it at a critical moment." ”
Wei Xiaobao nodded with a hippie smile: "If I find it, I'll give it to you, Master, and Master will take me to make a fortune together." ”
Xin Han gave him a knock and said: "Okay, you go back first, remember what I told you yesterday, pay attention to your diet and don't let people hurt you, don't practice the boxing techniques handed over to you when you go back, the provincial call Hai Dafu found out, and when you have nothing to do, practice pile gong first." ”
Wei Xiaobaoqi said: "Is the old turtle called Hai Dafu, it's really not a good name, no matter how rich it is, it's all in the soup when it is thrown into the sea, and it's a rich fart, no wonder it's a eunuch, unlike my Xiaobao, what a good name." ”
Xin Han couldn't help laughing and parted with Wei Xiaobao, and when he returned to the guard's room, he took the initiative to find Niu Yonglu and Zhang Zhao to gamble together, which made the three of them feel that he valued righteousness over money, and his good impression of him increased greatly, and he had the meaning of brothers with different surnames.
After returning home for dinner in the evening, Xin Han stood in the courtyard and started to practice from the standing pile, and after standing for a whole hour, he began to practice boxing again, and the practice was the eight-pole small frame he handed over to Wei Xiaobao and Kangxi today.
Dodd was waiting by the side as usual, he liked to watch Xin Han practice boxing, and he took a fierce road in every move, just like the indomitable momentum of a fierce general on the battlefield.
Suddenly, Dodd felt that Xin Han's momentum was different, the speed of his punches remained the same, and the strength did not change, it seemed that everything was still the same, but he just felt that Xin Han was different, what was more or less, he couldn't say, just pure feeling.
After watching it for a long time, Dodd shook his head, probably because he was wrong.
In fact, Dodd's feeling is not wrong, Xin Han has indeed changed, the momentum and strength of the boxing practice just now are constantly rising, and every punch is the peak of Ming Jin, the power of a thousand catties, but Xin Han doesn't know why the chest and abdomen are getting more and more dull, and it seems that another heat wave is rushing in it, but it is suppressed in it and there is no way out.
Xin Han heard what his master Li Shuwen said, and knew that this was the feeling of breaking through, so he hurriedly followed the method that Li Shuwen had taught him, and led this heat wave towards the dantian, and then traveled through the dantian and stretched up along the spine.
Then he punched out this force through his arm, until the fingertips of his palms, and then the bones in his whole body clicked, and there was a thunderous sound between his chest and abdomen, which even Dodd on the side could hear clearly.
Dodd was startled, thinking that there was something wrong with Xin Han, and hurriedly stepped forward: "Son, what's wrong with you, where is it uncomfortable, don't you need me to find a doctor." ”
Xin Han slowly retracted his fists and let out a sigh of relief, his face was full of joy: "No, I've never been so good, my muscles and bones are ringing, tigers and leopards are thundering, this is the dark energy." After saying that, I couldn't help but laugh.
Although Dodd didn't know what he was talking about, he knew that it was a good thing, and hurriedly said: "Congratulations to Childe, congratulations to Childe." ”
Xin Han wiped the sweat on his hands with the towel he handed over before saying: "Tomorrow, you will go back to Hangzhou, and take Duofu and your family over, after I become an official, we will live in the capital, by the way, take more money to redeem a woman named Wei Chunhua in Lichun Courtyard, and bring her to the capital, and say that her son is an official, let her come to enjoy the blessings." ”
Dodd didn't know about Wei Xiaobao, and couldn't help but be stunned when he heard Xin Han's words.
Xin Han knew at a glance that he wanted to deviate and scolded with a smile: "Spicy mother, that Wei Chunhua's son is my friend, and now he is also on an errand in the palace, where do you want to go." ”
He mixed up with Wei Xiaobao a lot, but learned Wei Xiaobao's verbal swearing.
Dodd smiled awkwardly: "The little one should be damned." ”
Xin Han finally reached the dark strength and was in a good mood, and asked Dodd to make two dishes, and pulled him to sit in the courtyard and drink wine, one drank until the second half of the night before falling asleep, and the next morning he was still dizzy when he entered the palace.
He was walking towards the imperial dining room with a waist knife, and suddenly someone called him, but when he looked back, it was Zhang Gengnian.
"Brother Zhang, do you have something to do with me? I'm going to go to the imperial dining room on an errand, and it's too late for a while. Xin Han looked at Zhang Gengnian differently.
Zhang Gengnian affectionately took his shoulders and walked to the side before saying: "Brother Xin, you don't have to go to the imperial dining room in the future, the father-in-law who went to the study just now named you to come over, and you will be on an errand in the study in the future, that is under the emperor's nose, I think you will be on the rise soon." ”
Xin Han was stunned: "Go to the study?" Really fake. After speaking, he reacted, it must be Kangxi's meaning, is he trying to have a showdown with me? Tell me who he is.
Zhang Gengnian patted Xin Han on the shoulder: "I didn't expect you to have such a way, brother, if you are developed in the future, don't forget my brother and me." ”
Xin Han said a few words to him, then turned around and returned to the guard to change the waist card, handed over the waist card of the imperial dining room, took the waist card of the study, and was about to go out, but saw that the door was blocked by two guards at the time, and was looking at him with bad intentions.
He knows these two people, they are both people elected by the Aobai family, and they don't have much contact with other guards on weekdays, so they don't know what to do with themselves today.
"You're Xin Han? I heard you're a crazy newcomer! A tall, thin guard took two steps forward, his face full of disdain and threat, and his eyes revealed a fierce gaze that shot directly at Xin Han.
Before Xin Han could speak, he walked out of the inner room and the two were Zhang Gengnian and Zhao Qixian, who were going to patrol, and they immediately walked among the three of them as soon as they saw this scene.
"Isn't this Brother Maolin, what's the matter, Xin Han is our brother, what is there to offend, you bear with me!" The two of them stood in front of the guard named Maolin and blocked Xin Han behind them.
When the two guards saw that someone was coming, they didn't work well, and their hands slammed Xin Han twice, turned around and left.
Zhang Zhao and the others wiped their cold sweat when they saw the two of them leaving.
Xin Han was a little strange: "These two people seem to be worshippers, I didn't offend them, what are they for?" ”
Zhao Qixian said: "Brother, don't you know that when you go to the study, it is in front of the Son of Heaven, where the head is sharp and scrambling to drill in, there are a total of eight guards who have a fixed number. ”
Zhang Gengnian also said: "Yes, brother, there are a total of eight guards in front of the door of the study, and six of them are worshippers, you should be careful when you enter and exit in the future." ”
Xin Han didn't take it seriously when he heard it, thanked the two with a smile and said that he would not return home if he was not drunk in the old place tonight, and then hung the waist card on his waist and went straight to the study.
When he arrived at the place, he realized that he was assigned to stand guard at the very edge of the front of the upper study, and Kangxi did not meet each other at all.
After a few days like this, Xin Han's life is like a line of standing guard at noon and going to teach boxing in the afternoon, that is, the guards of the same class are not very pleasing to the eye, he only can't see it, and those guards think he is afraid and often sneer.
Kangxi and Wei Xiaobao's kung fu has made them look good under his teaching, and the two practice against each other is also decent, Wei Xiaobao is lazy, although Xin Han told him to go back to stand on the pile to practice, but after standing for a while, he fell tired on the bed and went to Zhou Gong to interpret his dream.
In this way, it is natural to lose more and win less, so that he often uses some street plots to sneak attack, such as 'breaking fingers' and 'sticking eyes', which provokes Xin Han's laughter and Kangxi's beating, but he doesn't care about it and enjoys it.
At noon on this day, Xin Han was about to go back to the guard's office, when he suddenly saw three little eunuchs walking in the distance, a little sneaky.
Xin Han was strange in his heart, at this time, there was no one in the study, and the guards were all on rotation, what were these three little eunuchs doing here, and he saw that the people walking in front of him looked like the father-in-law Wen brothers who went to the study on an errand, and the little eunuchs in the back looked familiar, and then took a closer look, isn't this Wei Xiaobao.
"Is this today?" He remembered that in the original book, Wei Xiaobao found out Kangxi's identity because he went to the study to steal the forty-two chapters of the scriptures, and as a result, he was stopped by Wei Xiaobao, is it today.
Xin Han hid his figure behind a rockery, watched the three of them enter the upper study, and then walked a few steps to the door of the upper study and listened inside.
I only heard Wen Youdao say in a low voice: "After a while, the emperor will come into the study, sit at this table to read and write, you hide behind the bookshelf, and quietly see the emperor, that's it." When the emperor reads and writes, no one else is allowed to make a sound, and you are not allowed to cough or sneeze. Otherwise, if the emperor is angry, he may ask the guards to drag you out and behead you. ”
Wei Xiaobao said: "I naturally know that I can't cough and sneeze, let alone fart." ”
Wen Youdao was a little unhappy, and said: "Little brother, going to the study is no better than anywhere else, and you can't talk disrespectful nonsense." ”
After a while, the Wen brothers finished cleaning and said to Wei Xiaobao: "Little brother, the emperor hasn't come to the study yet, and he won't come today." The guards are going to come to inspect, and when they see your face, they will definitely investigate, and everyone can't afford to be guilty. ”
Wei Xiaobao didn't allow it, and several people argued a few words, until the Wen brothers said that they would bring him in the future, Wei Xiaobao nodded, and the three of them broke up from the side door out of the upper study.
Wei Xiaobao walked back quickly, passed through two corridors, and hid behind a door, and after a while, thinking that the Wen brothers had gone away, he quietly came out from behind the door, followed the original path back to the study, and when he went to push the side door, he didn't expect that the inside had been bolted.
He listened to the door, but did not hear any sound, and then he opened his eyes inward through the crack in the door, and there was no one in the courtyard, and he thought for a moment, and took out a thin dagger from the shaft of his boot. This dagger was used to stab Xiao Guizi to death that day.
He tried to insert the dagger into the crack of the door to lift the latch, but before he could make a move, he heard someone behind him: "Your dagger is too short, come and use mine." ”
After speaking, he handed a waist knife from the back of his head.
Wei Xiaobao was also thinking in his heart just now, it would be nice if this dagger was longer, but he didn't expect his dream to come true, and subconsciously said: "Okay, this one is indeed enough." ”
Just as he was about to reach out to take it, he suddenly reacted, and was so frightened that he couldn't hold the dagger and took it out of his hand, and when he saw it, he fell to the ground, but was grabbed by a hand.
Then Wei Xiaobao felt that his forehead was knocked: "You kid, don't you have anything to do here to die, if you let others see ten heads, it's not enough to cut off." ”
Wei Xiaobao looked back and saw that it was Xin Han who let out a sigh of relief, and after relieving himself, he almost collapsed on the ground and pointed at Xin Han and said, "Master, haven't you heard that people are scared and scared to death, if you scare me to death, there will be no such smart apprentice." ”
