Wei Xiaobao of Lu Ding Ji

Wei Xiaobao turned around stiffly and was about to kneel down.I only heard a familiar voice saying: "My son kowtowed to my mother, my son was unfilial, and my mother was frightened." Wei Xiaobao was shocked again.He even forgot to kowtow, raised his head and looked around, but saw that there was no one in the corridor, only the long burning lamp was dimly lit, not dancing with flames.

Wei Xiaobao felt something was wrong.Then he walked towards the direction where the sound came from, and walked deep into the corridor, but he didn't wait for him to get there.I only heard that familiar voice saying: "My son...rescue came too late..."

Listen carefully.Kangxi is greeting the queen mother.The sound came faintly from above, and then there was a burst of footsteps.Wei Xiaobao quickly stopped, and quietly stuck to the wall beside him, but he couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.It turned out that above his head was the Palace of Mercy and Benevolence.Then this must be the secret room of the Palace of Mercy.Sure enough, there are many secret rooms and secret passages in the palace.Now that Chapter 42 has been obtained, he did not stay in this secret room anymore.

Just as Wei Xiaobao was about to move his body, he exited the corridor, only to hear the voice of the Empress Dowager above him, "Let's go, I'm tired." The voice was suddenly audible, and he instantly became alert.He leaned against the wall and did not dare to move.Immediately afterwards, there was a sound of footsteps from the secret door leading to the rockery on the other side of the corridor.

All the muscles in his body tensed immediately.This is a dead end, if the secret door in the rockery is broken through, he will definitely not be able to escape.He hurriedly searched for another exit, and in the light of the fire, he suddenly found a faint groan coming from the stone slab on the other wall.He quickly pasted it.

"..." Only a faint female voice was heard, but it was extremely faint and unreal.Wei Xiaobao was shocked, could there be some kind of hostage hiding here?

Just as he was thinking, suddenly there was a sound of stones moving above his head.Wei Xiaobao quickly exited the stone room and hid in the corner of the corridor.Lurking motionless in the shadows.Then I heard a sound of "Duuu..." coming from far and near.Wei Xiaobao only felt his mind go blank.The voice was all too familiar.It was the sound of maidservants in the ordinary palace walking through the corridor, cotton shoes on the bottom of flower pots hitting blue bricks and slabs...

In this quiet space, one after another, it seemed to knock on Wei Xiaobao's heart.This secret room is the secret room of the Ciren Palace, and only the Empress Dowager knows about it.Then the owner of the bottom of this flowerpot... must be Empress Xiao Huizhang.

Wei Xiaobao felt that he was going to die soon, people with strong martial arts had extraordinary mental strength, and the Empress Dowager was a master among the masters, even though she was injured, she was still not to be underestimated.Moreover, since Empress Xiaohuizhang is so cruel, killing Concubine Zhen consecutively, Empress Duanjing, Empress Xiaokang, Prince Rong and others, but able to hide safely in the palace for more than [-] years, she must be a strong character with a strong will.In addition, in this dark room, if he didn't look directly into her eyes for a while, then he would be the one who would die... Wei Xiaobao just thought about it, but in an instant his back was aroused by this terrible expectation. A thin layer of cold sweat.Wei Xiaobao paused for a moment, his mind was quite agitated, he would be like this sometimes, although he knew that the danger was abnormal, but an unusual sense of excitement aroused in his mind.

"Liu Yan?" Empress Xiaohuizhang's soft voice suddenly came from the quiet stone room.It looked extraordinarily ghostly and strange in the dark secret room.

Wei Xiaobao paused, and while she was speaking, slowly withdrew to the outside of the corridor behind him.

"Liu Yan?! Where are you?" Empress Xiaohuizhang's voice raised slightly, followed by a burst of coughing.It can be seen that Hai Dafu hurt her badly.

is an opportunity.Wei Xiaobao made up his mind and quickly took ten steps back.Who would have thought that such a slight movement would still be noticed by the vigilant Empress Xiaohuizhang. "Who?!" Then came the sound of the stone door moving.

No, she is coming out.Wei Xiaobao didn't care about anything at this time, and immediately retreated towards the stone room, until he was near the secret door.As soon as he raised his head, he saw a pair of distorted dark eyes outside the stone gate not far away. "It's you?!" She didn't seem to think it was Wei Xiaobao. "What do you know?!"

Wei Xiaobao's heart was shocked immediately, fortunately with his powerful mental strength, he immediately stabilized his mind, and opened his eyes again showing a strange golden color.Taking advantage of her confusion, she immediately said in a hoarse voice, "You haven't seen me." There was an inexplicable charm in her voice.

"..." I saw that pair of eyes wavering, but still staring at him fiercely. "Xiao Guizi, why don't you greet me when you see me?"

Wei Xiaobao was startled, why is this ability so difficult to use in ancient times, one or two can get rid of the mental shackles?Immediately increased the strength.

The two of them looked at each other silently in this brightly lit corridor, Wei Xiaobao tried his best to maximize his abilities.Finally, the pair of sinister eyes on the opposite side slowly became a little dazed.Wei Xiaobao took the opportunity to say: "You haven't seen me, Liu Yan has already died at Hai Dafu's hands in order to help you kill Hai Dafu."

"...Yes." Seeing the woman nodding blankly, he immediately turned around and left the secret door.He doesn't want to stay here for even a moment in this ugly Palace of Mercy!

Once out of the secret passage, Wei Xiaobao squatted near the rockery by the secret door and listened for a while. When there was no movement around him, he slowly calmed down and rushed out of the rockery.Thinking about the direction of his own palace, he ran.

It's a pity that the weather is not fair, the more Wei Xiaobao wants to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible, the more difficult it will be.As soon as he left the Palace of Mercy and walked a few steps in the corridor, he bumped into a person head-on.There was only a sound of "Ouch."The crisp female voice rushed into his ears, coupled with the warm fragrance of nephrite jade in his arms, Wei Xiaobao's mind went numb for a moment, his eyes became dizzy, and he didn't see the person clearly, so he scolded in a low voice: "Where did you come from, little maid, you don't have eyes?" .”

The news in the palace naturally spread very quickly, and the "friendship" between Wei Xiaobao and Kangxi has never been shy about anything. Although the eunuchs and maidservants were forced by Kangxi's order and did not speak to Wei Xiaobao, Li Dequan, even if he was the chief eunuch, would not hesitate to meet him. To salute him respectfully.He is extremely proud in this palace, he can be regarded as half master.On weekdays, no matter how big the maidservant is, she would have to give him some face.

It's a pity, today, all the people living in this Palace of Mercy and Benevolence are the masters, so where is it his turn, a little eunuch, to show off?As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a crisp sound, and the right half of his face was in sharp pain.

Wei Xiaobao covered his face, and after a while he realized that he was slapped.He opened his mouth to curse.The visitor opened his mouth first and said: "Bold slave, instead of guarding at the Palace of Mercy, you actually came here to make jokes."

Wei Xiaobao took a closer look, it was a very beautiful little girl, this little girl was only about eight or nine years old, she was dressed in fancy clothes, she didn't speak, she looked dignified and compelling, but she had a beautiful face, a pair of smart big eyes and a young adult He stared at Wei Xiaobao coldly, with a hint of contemptuous arrogance besides indifference on his face, appearing self-willed and arrogant, extremely domineering.

For a while, Wei Xiaobao couldn't guess her identity.But then I thought about it, and secretly rejoiced that the clothes in the palace are all exquisite, who can wear what kind of clothes.For example, on the court clothes, Yuan Buzi is a relative of the emperor, Fang Buzi is a minister Xiaguan, and according to the grade, different birds are embroidered on the civil servant's patch, and different animals are embroidered on the military officer's patch.

And this little girl wears 24 "pickling poles" on her head, and the ten pearls on the top of the crown can make Wei Xiaobao dizzy even in the moonlight in the middle of the night. , the slightly open front of the clothes is even more embroidered like a five-clawed dragon, the identity must be compelling.Wei Xiaobao thought about it carefully, and according to the customs of the Qing Dynasty, she should be a Heshuo princess.There is only one Qing Dynasty who can be so arrogant in the palace and is also Princess Heshuo.That is Princess Heshuo Jianning.

Wei Xiaobao hadn't had time to speak, and there were dozens of "cracks, bangs" with a lot of strength. Originally, Wei Xiaobao had the unlucky encounter with Empress Xiaohui tonight, so his mental power was exhausted and he became unstable. I slapped him more than a dozen times for no reason.He was already overwhelmed by the burden, and Wei Xiaobao raised his hand to touch it, and felt that his cheeks were hot and painfully swollen.

Wei Xiaobao was immediately annoyed.Although he is not a noble figure, he is a precious humanoid weapon of the country.On weekdays, he is also pampered, and because of his special ability, no one dares to be so rude to him.This is even more true in ancient times. Even Kangxi was tolerant of him. When did he suffer such a crime?

Without even thinking about it, a pair of black pupils turned golden in an instant, and with the little mental power left, he raised his eyes to Jianning, and said lightly, "Why should I go, but...after returning to the palace, Slap your mouth one hundred times." After saying that, Wei Xiaobao turned around to the dazed little girl and left the rockery.He didn't have the leisure to educate Shunzhi's spoiled little daughter.What about Princess Heshuo?What about Princess Gu Lun?In his eyes, she was just an uneducated, arrogant and crazy girl.

On the way back to the palace, he secretly boasted about his magnanimity.If it was normal, he would have completely killed the spirit of this little girl who was less than ten years old, and let her spend the rest of her long life insanely.But Wei Xiaobao held back, firstly, because he was a historical figure, he was going to marry Wu Yingxiong as his wife in the future, and now he was going crazy, afraid that there would be some unforeseen deviation in history.Secondly, Wei Xiaobao urgently needed to go back to the house to catch up on sleep due to his mental exhaustion at Empress Xiaohuizhang just now, and he no longer had the energy to do unnecessary things.

Finally returned to his small courtyard, Wei Xiaobao was so exhausted that he couldn't move his mind, he only thought about the big bed in his room.As soon as he opened the courtyard door, he froze. The former Xiao Xuanzi was wearing a royal blue suit, sitting in the middle of the hall, lost in thought to the cup of tea.Seeing him coming back from the door, his expression flickered, but he said without any unnaturalness: "Xiao Guizi, where did you go tonight. It's hard for me to find."

Wei Xiaobao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly felt that Kangxi was a little hypocritical, so he gave him a cold look, and said respectfully, "My servant, Xiao Guizi, sees the emperor. Long live, long live, long live."

Kangxi's smile froze on his lips. "You knew already."

"Slaves dare not deceive the emperor."

"Then you also know what I want to ask you?"

"Yes."

"Xiao Guizi, did you go to the Queen Mother to steal the 42 chapters?" While speaking, Kangxi's dark eyes kept looking at him without blinking, as if he wanted to hear his denial.

"If you go back to the emperor, the slave will not dare to do so even if he is too ambitious."

"Presumptuous! Then where did you go tonight? I... it's easy to find up and down in the palace."

Wei Xiaobao gritted his teeth and said, raised his eyes and said: "Yes, the servant has gone to the Palace of Mercy."

As soon as Kangxi heard this, he immediately stepped forward and growled in a low voice: "Xiao Guizi, tell me honestly, are you from Hai Dafu's group? For... for the Queen Mother, for my life?!" A pair of white hands clenched Holding his shoulder tightly, the veins in his hand almost burst out.

"The reason why I came to the Palace of Mercy is because I heard movement in the Palace of Kindness. When I arrived, I happened to see you standing in the yard talking to the Queen Mother." Wei Xiaobao frowned and whispered. He saw Kangxi's black pupils. , his pale ghost-like face, crumbling. "That's when the servant realized that the little Xuanzi who had been here for many days turned out to be the emperor."

"Is this true?"

"It's absolutely true." Wei Xiaobao hurriedly kowtowed before Kangxi had no time to stop him, and said, "The emperor please investigate clearly."

Immediately, Kangxi's expression turned colder. "Xiao Guizi, what do you mean?"

"Your majesty is a man of gold, you can't compare with slaves. Please go back to your bedroom." Wei Xiaobao said slowly while lying on the ground.He didn't have much strength anymore, in order to prevent Kangxi from seeing his weak appearance at this time, of course he stopped arguing with Kangxi.

"You mean...we can't be friends anymore?"

"Little Xuanzi is a friend, but the emperor is not."

Kangxi was very angry, and a little bit wronged. "What? Are you blaming me?!"

Wei Xiaobao could no longer calm down. Originally, he had exhausted himself a lot tonight, and his spirit began to become unstable.He looked straight at Kangxi and said: "If you are a friend, you won't suspect that I will be with Hai Dafu, you won't suspect that I went to the Palace of Mercy to steal scriptures, and you won't think that I will kill...Little Xuanzi."

Kangxi only said one sentence, and then heard him refute so many at once.He wanted to get angry at first, but when he met Wei Xiaobao's dark eyes, all anger and anger disappeared immediately, and he just wanted to keep this "friend" he cherished.Moreover, Wei Xiaobao's face was as pale as a ghost at the moment, he must have been frightened by his identity, and Kangxi immediately felt guilty.

"I don't plan to worry about tonight's matter." After all, Hai Dafu's martial arts are superb, and Xiao Guizi is just a little eunuch who knows some foreign martial arts.If the two were forced to make a pair, it would be a bit far-fetched to say that they were accomplices.Kangxi immediately added: "Xiao Guizi, are you angry? The reason why I didn't tell you my identity is because... I'm afraid that you... will become alienated like you are now." After saying that, Kangxi fell a little bit.

"I suspect you are my fault, but... I don't have any friends, so I don't know what to do with ordinary friends...Xiao Guizi, can you forgive me... can you forgive me?"

Seeing him, Wei Xiaobao really felt a little regretful, his always calm eyes sparkled with panic, and suddenly felt a little pitiful and cute.On the contrary, he calmed down, and his mood swings were not so great.In fact, Kangxi's guess was at least one-third right, he had indeed gone to the Palace of Mercy to steal scriptures.

Originally, Wei Xiaobao didn't plan to "renew the relationship" with Kangxi and continue to be friends, but he left the palace early the next morning.But after thinking about it, if the empress dowager finds out that Chapter 42 is missing and she leaves the palace, Kangxi will definitely suspect herself, so wouldn't it be self-inflicted?So he said: "What the emperor wants Xiao Guizi to do, Xiao Guizi can do." In fact, he took a mouthful of a little guizi, and a mouthful of a slave, which was a little awkward, and from the bottom of his heart he was still the same Wei Xiaobao who was on an equal footing with Kangxi.

"I want you to still be my friend, and tonight's business will be written off, okay?" Kangxi cautiously approached his side, Wei Xiaobao lost his mind, his legs gave way and almost fell on top of him.

"it is good."

"I mean...wait a minute, what do you agree?"

"Correct."

"You agreed?" Kangxi said in surprise.

"...Little Xuanzi." Wei Xiaobao smiled wryly. "Help me, my legs are weak."

Kangxi tightened his jaw suddenly, and said in panic, "Xiao Guizi, what's wrong with you?"

"Call me Xiaobao." Wei Xiaobao draped his shoulders wearily. Since they are already friends, it is not impossible to tell their real names, but he still said. "My thoughts are extremely confused right now, illogical, irrational. I will probably agree to whatever you want me to promise." Wei Xiaobao murmured in a low voice. "It doesn't count."

"No, you agreed, and if you agree, it counts. You are confused, but I don't. I can hear you clearly. Xiaobao, you can't go back on your word."

Wei Xiaobao was half-dragged and half-carried by Kangxi on the soft couch next to him, his whole body was limp and turned into a paste. "..." He listened drowsily to Kangxi's hurried words. "Little Xuanzi, you are playing tricks..."

"I don't. Call me Xuan Ye."

"Xuan Ye... you're playing tricks."

"You have already promised me." Kangxi said rather unreasonably. "Once a word is spoken, it's hard to chase after it." He said and carried Xiaobao to the bed.

"..." Wei Xiaobao didn't answer, Kangxi happily looked down at the person in his arms.Suddenly found that at this time Xiaobao had fallen asleep in his arms defenselessly.There was a sudden burst of relief in my heart, and I was a little swayed.

"I'll take it as your acquiescence." Kangxi sat on the edge of the bed, looked at Xiaobao's sleeping face, and slowly covered his soft and slightly pale cheeks with one hand.For the first time in history, the most noble person in the Qing Dynasty cheated.He stared blankly at Wei Xiaobao's sleeping face, and sighed softly. "Xiaobao? At least... there is a small word, you didn't lie to me."

At this time, Li Dequan suddenly came into the courtyard from the outside, saw that the door was locked, he gently buttoned it, bowed and stood respectfully outside the room and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty... it's time for you to go up." He Behind him was a row of eunuchs and maids, and she was also holding the dragon robe that the emperor would use in the early court.

Kangxi stood beside the bed, staring blankly at Wei Xiaobao's sleeping face, thinking that the most beautiful and peaceful days in time were nothing more than that.It seems that Li Dequan didn't hear what he said at all.When Li Dequan was hesitating whether to persuade him again, he gently knocked on the door again.Kangxi frowned, but he couldn't bear to leave the bed half an inch, and after a while, he deliberately lowered his voice. "I...suddenly feel unwell today, I should have avoided it earlier."

"Hey." Li Dequan couldn't help being a little surprised when he heard that Kangxi, who had always worked hard and never lacked a morning court, was about to give up the morning court.Although he didn't know what happened inside, years of experience made him understand that the people in the room might soon become masters...

"and many more."

"Yes."

"Tell the guards that there is nothing important here, so don't come in to serve."

"Whoo."

After the maids and guards retreated cleanly, Kangxi gently untied the outer shirt, and slowly lay down on the outer half of the bed.Then he lightly lifted Wei Xiaobao's neck buried in the brocade quilt, and put it on his own arm, then he put on a gentle and indulgent smile, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
