One day, after breakfast, two guards came to the door and said respectfully," I am a guard of the imperial prison. Chief Ah Ming wants to ask Eunuch Hai to identify a criminal named Mao Shi Ba."”
" F * ck, this is bad. Why hasn't he gone out after so many days? He's even been captured," I thought.
Hai Dafu said lightly," Little Guizi knows those two criminals, so I won't go. Xiao Guizi, go with them and tell Manager Ah Ming about what happened that day.”
I said,"It's father-in-law." In front of outsiders, I still call him father-in-law.
I followed the guards for a long time and arrived at a place. There were four guards standing at the door with knives.
After entering, he saw a large courtyard with a main hall and two wings on either side. He walked to the left wing and saw a spiral staircase leading to the basement. He walked down and saw a few prison cells and interrogation rooms. In the innermost room was Mao Shi Ba and Wei Xiao Bao. The two of them seemed to have suffered a lot and were not in good spirits. Wei Xiao Bao had his head lowered and his eyes were half-closed, thinking about something. The two of them looked like they had been tortured by the guards.
The guard locked the cell door and opened it. A guard brought me inside. Mao Shi Ba saw us enter and straightened his body. He stood up and said," If you're a man, give us a quick death. After eighteen years, you'll be a man again."”I guess Mao Shi Ba was afraid that the guards would torture them again.
The guard snorted." Mao Shi Ba, don't be so stubborn. You won't die for the time being. I haven't had enough fun yet." Hehe!" He sneered and turned to ask me,"Are they the ones Eunuch Hai brought into the palace?"
I said,"Yes."
" Alright, please take a look at their confession, Eunuch Gui." The guard left the dungeon after he finished speaking. I turned around and looked at Mao Shi Ba, indicating that I couldn't save him now.
Mao Shi Ba gratefully shook his head at me. I could tell from his eyes that he had lost all hope.
When we arrived at the big room above, I first told him about the general situation that day. The guard nodded and said," Yes, Mao Shiba and the other two confessed. They said the same thing as what you said."”
I looked at the confession. It was more or less the same. The process was very clear. Of course, it also mentioned Mao Shi Ba's several public cases in Jiangbei. Looking at this confession, it's hard not to die. It's a pity that Mao Shi Ba is a man. Comrade Wei Xiaobao might not be able to turn things around. I'll enjoy the future glory for you.
I looked up at the guard and asked,"How should I address you, sir?"”
" I'm Zhang Kangnian, the manager here," the guard said.
Wasn't this Wei Xiaobao's underling? I have to find a chance to accept it. "Can I ask? What should we do with Lord Zhang and the other two? Will they be beheaded?”
Zhang Kangnian said," Not for the time being. They will be handed over to the Ministry of Justice in a few days. They will probably be executed after autumn."”
I chuckled and said," See you later, Lord Zhang. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave first."
" I'm not seeing you off, father-in-law. See you later," Zhang Kangnian said.
"I don't understand why there is a prison in the palace. Isn't the prison in the Ministry of Justice? "I must ask Hai Dafu if I have the chance," I thought as I walked.
Three months passed like this. One day, Kang Xi called me to the study and said to me," I want to do something big with you. Do you have the guts?”
I knew that what should come would come. With more than three months of hard work, I thought it was about time. This paragraph in the original book was very clear. Although catching Ao Bai was troublesome, it was still successful. "What do I have to be afraid of when you ask me to do something?”
"Alright," Kang Xi said bitterly,"Oboi is rude and has a plot in his mind. We'll take him down today. Oboi was also a guard minister in the territory, and the guards in the palace were his trusted aides. Our recent actions will inevitably fall into his eyes, so there is no time to lose. We have to act quickly. Otherwise, our lives will be lost, and even the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager will suffer.”
"Please instruct me, Emperor. I will definitely do my best to take him down. Eunuch Hai also said that my martial arts have reached a small success, and the guards in the palace will be difficult to meet.”I straightened up.
Kang Xi said excitedly," That's good. He'll be coming to my place for a meeting later. I'll get those twenty eunuchs to wait here first." When you saw the teacup in my hand fall, you and the little eunuch took him down.”Kang Xi pulled open the desk drawer and took out two daggers with golden handles. He handed one to me and inserted the other into his boots.
Holding the dagger, I felt my blood boil and my entire body heat up. I couldn't help but say eagerly,"Your Majesty, just wait and see. I will definitely not disappoint you!”
Kang Xi excitedly said,"Go and tell those eunuchs to prepare."”
I first went back to find my foster father and told him about the matter of taking Ao Bai. He said," I knew that the Emperor would make a move, but I didn't expect him to really endure for so long. He's a person who can achieve great things." I know Ao Bai's kung fu. He is a general on horseback, and his fist and leg skills are not his forte. Your current skills are not bad, but you have less actual combat experience. However, it is more likely to catch you off guard.”
I said," Alright, Godfather, do you have any Meng Han medicine or something? It'd be best if it's fragrant or something. It's better to be safe."
His foster father said," Yes, I have a secret recipe for Bone Crisp Powder here. You can sprinkle it on the incense in the study room. If you smell it, you won't be able to use your internal energy for a short period of time. We took the antidote in advance.”
I shouted,"Well, with this thing we have a better chance."”After all, Ao Bai was the number one warrior in Manchuria. It was always good to be on guard.
He called the group of eunuchs to the study. These young eunuchs had been practicing pouncing in the warehouse for several months. Although they did not have much martial arts, their ability to pull hands and pull legs was not bad.
"You've been practicing for months," Kang Xi said to the eunuchs."I wonder if you've improved." A high-ranking official will come in later. This person is a good fighter in our court. I'll let him test your kung fu. When you see me throw the teacup on the ground, you will swarm him. If you can press him to the ground and make him unable to move, I will reward you handsomely.”As he spoke, he pulled open the drawer of the desk and took out a pile of fifty-tael ingots."If you win, each of you will get a gold ingot. If you lose, all of you will be beheaded. What was the point of keeping such a lazy and useless fellow?”The last two sentences were said in a stern tone.
These eunuchs knelt down together and said,""These servants will naturally do their best to work for the emperor.”
"Then what kind of business is it?" Kang Xi laughed. I'm just testing you to see who's studying hard and who's lazy.”
Just as I sprinkled the Crisp Bone Powder on the incense stick, I heard the sound of boots outside the door. A guard called out,"Young Guardian Ao greets the emperor.”
Kang Xi composed himself, looked at me, and said loudly,"Young Guardian Ao, come in!" Oboi lifted the curtain and walked in. He knelt down and kowtowed. Kang Xi smiled." Ao Shaobao, you advised me not to read Han books. I think you're right. I recently found some eunuchs to practice wrestling. You came at the right time." I have long heard that you are the best martial artist among the Manchurian warriors. Why don't you teach them a few moves?”
