Chapter 52: The Past of the Secret Guard

Qi Wei said with some nostalgia: "The slave was originally a prodigal son in the capital, and then he met the first emperor, and the first emperor saw that the slave was clever and accepted the slave into the secret guard, and the first emperor also gave the slave a word, which is Qi Wei." ”

Kangxi was a little discouraged when he heard this, but he was dissatisfied: "Since you know that it is the kindness of the former emperor to you, why are you unwilling to serve me now, is it impossible for me to be cultivated?" In the end, Kangxi gritted his teeth.

"The master laughed, you were appointed by the emperor, and the minions were also convinced by the master." Qi Wei said busily.

Kangxi was discouraged when he heard this, to be honest, Kangxi was a young emperor, because he did not have Ama's words and deeds, so Kangxi was extremely excited about Shunzhi's courtiers' affirmation of him. Just like Tu Hai, as the courtier who Emperor Shunzhi still had to mention before his illness, Kangxi also respected him very much, not his attitude towards the four auxiliary ministers.

As for the four auxiliary ministers, because the empress dowager's dissatisfaction with them for so many years has also affected Kangxi, not to mention that the four auxiliary ministers became more and more arrogant later, which completely wiped out Kangxi's good impression of them.

Now Qi Wei's affirmation of Kangxi makes Kangxi feel very good. waved his hand to signal Qi Wei to get up, and continued to let Qi Wei speak.

"The minion's real name is Chamuda, and the slave is surnamed Niu Hulu."

"Are you Manchurian? Are all the guards full? Kangxi asked hurriedly.

"Master Qiqi, except for the lowest manpower, most of the high-level people are Manchu, and there are some Han and Mongols." Qi Wei said.

To be honest, Kangxi didn't expect that the secret guard left by Huang Ama was still full of people. After all, few people are willing to serve in such a shady organization as the dark guard, let alone a man who is one level higher than others at this time!

Kangxi always thought that this secret guard was just a dead soldier trained by Huang Ama, maybe an orphan somewhere, and he didn't dare to reuse it. I didn't expect this to be an organization with Manchurian people as the majority, these days Kangxi has come into contact with the secret guards are full of talents, Kangxi has always felt that he can't promote the secret guards openly, after all, now the Han people are mostly civil officials, if a few Han people are promoted to take charge of the military, most of the court will explode. Now knowing that most of the secret guards are full, Kangxi suddenly thought of N ways to place people in the court.

"In the past, the secret guard was a place where the emperor trained his own manpower, so most of them were full." Qi Wei paused and continued: "Master Tu was also a member of it, and he was also the former leader of the Dark Guard. ”

"Which figure-sama! Tuhai! Kangxi had some incredulity in his tone, guessing about possible people.

Qi Wei nodded a little strangely, confirming Kangxi's guess. Kangxi didn't expect that Tuhai was also a member of the dark guard, and even the commander of the dark guard, to be honest, Kangxi couldn't believe it.

And Qi Wei was also confused after knowing that Tu Hai was also a secret guard for the first time, Qi Wei didn't know Tu Hai's name, on the contrary, he grew up watching Tu Hai, and it was because he was so close that he was so surprised after knowing Tu Hai's identity.

Tuhai's identity had a great impact on Kangxi, so much so that he was immersed in the scene of Tuhai's two identities switching and couldn't extricate himself.

To be honest, Tu Hai has always been a good hand at handling government affairs in Kangxi's impression, and I haven't heard of any talent in military affairs. As for the impression given to Kangxi by the dark guard, martial arts must be good, can Tu Hai's trembling appearance really be qualified for the position of dark guard?

"Master Tu is old and strong, and he is an example for the minions." Qi Wei nodded in confirmation. The last time Qi Wei saw Tu Hai, he was beaten by Tu Hai, who was old and strong. As for the reason for beating him, there is no need to go into details. The degree of tragedy on his body is enough to show that Tuhai's skills are the same as back then.

Kangxi slowly calmed down the surprise in his heart, it was really the news that Qi Wei brought to Kangxi today that shocked Kangxi.

"Then Tuhai is not a secret guard now?" Kangxi asked.

"Ever since Master Tu ascended to a high position, he has been removed from the Secret Guard. Once a person in the Secret Guard reaches a certain position, he will automatically withdraw from the Secret Guard, keep a document to prove that he was once a member of the Secret Guard, and he is not allowed to talk about it in front of outsiders. It's just that Master Tu angered the emperor for some reason, and then even the information in the secret guard was destroyed by the emperor. And the current dark guard doesn't know about it. Therefore, the master did not know about it. Qi Wei replied respectfully.

"And how do you know?" Kangxi asked.

"The slave is the secret guard of Lord Tu when he is in office, so the minion also knows about it." Qi Wei replied.

"Of course, now Master Tu doesn't know the situation of the secret guard, but he only knows that the minion still hasn't quit the dark guard, so let the minion quit." Qi Wei continued. "And the minions have already joined the master, and the Lord doesn't know about it."

Kangxi nodded and did not comment on this. Just continue to ask Qiwei.

"Then why did you transfer the secret guard, and who are you now?" Kangxi asked with some curiosity.

"The emperor also once said that if there are close relatives in the family who are concubines who want to enter the palace, they can't continue to stay in the secret guard to avoid suspicion." Qi Wei replied.

"The concubine who entered the palace? Who are you from Concubine Niu Hulu? Kangxi thought of Qi Wei's surname, and his tone was a little calm, he began to suspect that Qi Wei came to report because Concubine Niu Hulu was framed, so he was a little suspicious of Qi Wei's loyalty.

"The relationship between the slave and the concubine Niu Hulu in the palace is only the same clan, if it is because of this, the slave does not have to withdraw from the secret guard." Qi Wei hurriedly replied.

"Then you're talking about Tuhai's niece? Who are you? How do you know she's going to the palace? Kangxi's tone was still a little condensed. Let Qi Wei's heart go up and down.

"The minion is not talented, it is her uncle, and she entered the palace because Lord Tu informed the minion, and Master Tu asked the minion to withdraw from the secret guard as soon as possible." Qi Wei secretly glanced at Kangxi, and was relieved to see Kangxi's face looking good.

"Tuhai is still loyal, but you are slippery, first said such a lot, and then told me at the end." Kangxi was quite satisfied with Tuhai's actions. But seeing Qi Wei's slippery performance, he wasn't so angry.

However, Kangxi thought that the name Chamuda was a little familiar, and after thinking about it for a while, he suddenly remembered that he had heard rumors that Chamuda was a gentleman in the mouth of an upright minister, and at first Kangxi really didn't associate the two Chamuda together, but it seemed that Chamuda was Tuhai's niece's uncle. Now looking at Qi Wei's performance, he really has the demeanor of a gentleman. It seems that his self-proclaimed prodigal at the beginning was not an exaggeration.

That upright minister seems to be Tuhai. Kangxi couldn't help but be a little embarrassed when he thought of this. At that time, I was still wondering in my heart, how Tuhai talked about his brother-in-law's brother, in addition to disliking it, he also looked a little pity. At that time, Kangxi thought it was Tuhai's love for the good children of the Tong family. Now it seems that it is a pity that he can't really show his talents in the dark guard.

However, Kangxi couldn't help but feel hot when he thought of the situation of the secret guard, Kangxi didn't expect that the secret guard left by Huang Ama was the best treasure. With these secret guards, he can deploy his forces in the court and no longer have to be controlled by others.
