When Wei Xiaobao arrived at Prince Kang's residence, the guards immediately informed Prince Kang. When Prince Kang heard that the Emperor had sent an envoy, he quickly opened the middle door and welcomed him. He set down the incense table and prepared to receive the imperial edict.
Seeing Prince Kang, Wei Xiaobao smiled."Your Highness, the Emperor has ordered me to come and see Oboi.”
"Yes, yes!" Prince Kang had seen Wei Xiaobao by Kang Xi's side in the study, and he knew that Wei Xiaobao had helped him capture Oboi. He had also given Kang Xi many good ideas and policies. Putting aside his identity as a eunuch, Prince Kang knew that Wei Xiaobao was really talented. He grinned and took Wei Xiaobao's hand."Eunuch Gui, it's rare for you to come. Let's drink a few cups first before we go see that fellow Oboi.”
Ye Feng could not reject it, he immediately agreed.
Prince Kang set up a feast and personally sat in the garden with Wei Xiaobao, asking about his hobbies.
"I don't have anything I like," said Wei Xiaobao, smiling.”
"The elderly love money, the middle-aged are lustful, but the eunuchs are not." It was hard to guess what this little eunuch liked. This child knew martial arts. If he gave him a treasured sword, he might cause trouble in the palace and would have to bear a lot of responsibility. Ah, I got it!" "Eunuch Gui, we hit it off at first sight." I have a few good horses in my stable. Please choose a few. How about this as a small gift from Xiao Wang?”
"How dare I accept a reward from His Royal Highness?"”
"We're brothers," Imperial Prince Kang waved his hand. Come, come, come. Let's take a look at the horses first. We'll drink when we come back.”
Without waiting for Wei Xiaobao to refuse, he pulled him towards the stable.
Wei Xiaobao laughed to himself. The Emperor's favorite was indeed treated well. Even a prince had to suck up to him.
"Old Wang," Prince Kang instructed the coachman,"bring out my Jade-Flowered Consort for Eunuch Gui to take a look."”
"Yes, Master."
The coachman retreated and soon led out a tall horse. It was covered in white fur and had light red spots. It was really handsome and extraordinary. It had a gold bridle, a gold jumping stirrp, and a silver gem on the saddle. Just the equipment on this horse was worth a lot of money. If it was not for the nobility, even the rich officials and merchants would not dare to use such a luxurious saddle.
Wei Xiaobao didn't know what a horse was good for, but seeing that it was his favorite white horse, he couldn't help but cheer,"What a beautiful horse!"
Prince Kang smiled." This horse was sent from the Western Regions. It's a famous Dawan horse. Don't judge it by its size, but it's still very young. It's only two years and a few months old. Beautiful horses should be ridden by beautiful people. Brother Gui, how about you choose this Jade Flowered Cong?”
"Your Highness, this…" Wei Xiaobao hesitated. This is your mount, how could I dare to take it? Your highness 'generous gift is truly a disgrace to me.”
Although he liked it, he still had to reject it.
"Brother Gui," Prince Kang said,"if you treat me as an outsider, you're looking down on me." Are you unwilling to befriend me?”
"This…" Wei Xiaobao looked troubled. How would a lowly person dare to make friends with wangye?”
"We Manchurians are straightforward people," Prince Kang said."You can treat me as a good friend and ride my horse. We'll be no different from each other in the future." Otherwise, this brother would be very angry!”As he spoke, his beard rose and he looked angry.
"Wangye, you…You treat me so well. I'm so touched. I really don't know how to repay you.”Wei Xiaobao's eyes sparkled, and he almost cried.
A prince crying and shouting to give something to Wei Xiaobao, it was obvious!
"What are you talking about? If you are willing to take this horse, consider it my honor.”As he spoke, Prince Kang walked over and patted the horse's rear several times."Yuhua, Yuhua, in the future, when you follow this eunuch, you have to be obedient.”
Then he looked at Wei Xiaobao and said,"Brother, try riding it."
Wei Xiaobao nodded, patted the saddle lightly, and leapt onto the horse. As he leaped, his figure was elegant and extremely mysterious.
"Good Kung Fu!" Prince Kang clapped his hands and praised.”
Wei Xiaobao smiled and rode the horse around the sand. He felt that it was fast and steady, and after a few circles, he jumped off the horse.
"Your Highness, thank you for your generous gift! I'll go and see Oboi now. I'll come back to accompany you.”Wei Xiaobao cupped his hands at Prince Kang.
"That's right." Prince Kang smiled."This is a major matter that has been ordered by the imperial edict." Little brother, please report to the emperor that we are keeping a tight watch on him. Even if this guy has wings, he can't escape.”
"Of course," said Wei Xiaobao.
Officials should protect each other. This was the most basic principle. After being a eunuch for six years, Wei Xiaobao had learned all the things of officialdom.
"Do you want me to go with you?" Prince Kang suggested.”
Wei Xiaobao shook his head." I wouldn't dare to trouble His Royal Highness. I'll just have a few guards take me there. Oboi's locked up in a cage, so he can't get on me."”
Every time Prince Kang saw Oboi, he would scold him. He had not wanted to see him, but now that Wei Xiaobao had said this, he did not say anything more. He immediately sent eight guards to accompany Wei Xiaobao to investigate the criminal.
The eight guards led Wei Xiaobao to the back garden, where they came to a lonely stone house. There were sixteen guards outside with steel knives in their hands, and two guard leaders patrolling around the house. It was indeed tightly guarded.
When the guard leader heard that the Emperor had sent an envoy to patrol, he led the guards to bow and open the lock on the iron door. He pushed it open and invited Wei Xiaobao in.
It was dark inside the stone house. There was a stove on the side of the corridor, and an old servant was cooking.
The leader of the guards said,"This iron gate is usually not opened easily. The food and drink of the criminals will be cooked by this person in the house and sent to the prison cell."”
"Very good!" said Wei Xiaobao, nodding. Your wangye is very thoughtful. The iron door didn't open, so the prisoner wanted to escape.”
"His Highness has ordered that if the criminal tries to escape, he will be killed without mercy," the guard leader said solemnly.”
Wei Xiaobao nodded and praised Prince Kang.
The leader of the guards led Wei Xiaobao into the inner room. As they entered a small hall, they heard Oboi's voice coming from inside.
After being locked up for six years, Oboi had suffered a lot. The person he hated the most was not the Emperor, but the shameless Wei Xiaobao.
An unremarkable little eunuch had captured Ao Shaobao, a top expert with godly power, with just a bag of lime powder. This was a disgrace to the number one warrior of the Qing Dynasty, and also the biggest stain on his life.
