Go to the Imperial Dining Room for dinner!

This matter is still a bit incredible for Wang Zhongxiao, who is determined to be the final minister of the Qing Dynasty. But Zhang Xiaobao, Cao Yin, and Guo Jinbao are familiar with each other, and they don't take it seriously at all. Zhang Xiaobao casually handed Wang Zhongxiao and Li Jixiang two waist cards engraved with the words "Walking in the Imperial Dining Room", and then led the big guys out of the door together, and walked along the inner street of Chaoyangmen towards the solemn and majestic Forbidden City.

On the way to the Forbidden City, he didn't know how heavily guarded this imperial city was, so Li Jixiang also asked Zhang Xiaobao in a whisper: "Brother Xiaobao, can you really enter the palace with this wooden card?" You won't be caught, will you? ”

Zhang Xiaobao turned his head and glanced at him, and suddenly thought that this was Chunni's brother, so he immediately put on a smiling face and said with a smile: "Jixiang, isn't the sign I gave you written?" Walking in the imperial dining room, this sign is issued to the cooks, worshippers, bearers, apprentices, and cooks who walk in the imperial dining room.

Take this sign into Dong'anmen and Donghuamen, pass by outside the three southern offices, and enter the imperial dining room outside Jingyun Gate, which no one can stop. But if you want to go inside, you have to use another brand. ”

"Any other brands?" Li Jixiang then inquired.

"Of course," Zhang Xiaobao said, "Jinbao is holding the sign of the Arsenal of Martial Arts, and he Ama has set him up as an apprentice of the Arsenal." When he responded to provoke Tang A, he entered the Arsenal as a formal apprentice. ”

"Hey, how do you talk about your little bun?" Guo Jinbao was annoyed when he heard this, and his eyes widened, "Why am I sure to mess up?" ”

"You don't study well," Zhang Xiaobao said, "just eat and drink, and always go to Bada Hutong......"

"What happened when I went to Bada Hutong?" Guo Jinbao did not deny it, but he still said vigorously, "I am here to do good...... Master, I have a good heart, and I can't see people suffering. The girls in the Eight Hutongs are all hard-working people, but I have accumulated great virtue! ”

Zhang Xiaobao seemed to like arguing with Guo Jinbao, and then muttered along with his words: "Just use the money stolen from your Ama to accumulate virtue?" Do you know Amma? ”

Oh? When Wang Zhongxiao heard this, he immediately glanced at Guo Jinbaogao...... This goods business, knowing that he has stolen his father's ill-gotten wealth to do good, is really good, good!

Guo Jinbao's face is still a little thin, and he was pointed out by Zhang Xiaobao for stealing money, and he didn't dare to say anything good, but pointed at Cao Yin, changed the topic: "Don't talk about me, talk about Xiao Caozi!" Xiao Caozi's waist card is amazing, and he walks inside! Brother Yin, take out your brand and open the eyes of the big head brother and Jixiang. ”

"Holo." Without saying a word, Cao Yin took out a gold-painted brand and handed it to Wang Zhongxiao with both hands, "Brother Big Head, you should also have a piece of this brand...... In the future, when you become a royal guard, you will also get a sign for Ouchi Walking or Qianqingmen Walking. The sign that walks in the inner part can enter the inner to protect the emperor, and the sign that walks in the Qianqing Gate can only go to the Qianqing Palace. ”

Wang Zhongxiao had already seen Wang Fuchen's Da Nei walking sign, but now he still took Cao Yin's sign and looked at it carefully for a while, and then asked with a smile: "Brother Yin, do you think that the coaters of the three banners of our Internal Affairs Office have a chance to be selected as a guard in the selection?" ”

"It's difficult," Cao Yin shook his head, "Although we are the emperor's own people, but the guards are an errand to ascend to the sky in one step, even if it is a Lanling guard, it is also a positive six-grade, if it is released, it will be even more amazing...... Therefore, the relatives and noble children of Shangsanqi are staring at those places. The coaters of our internal affairs office have to be guards, and they usually have to be personally promoted by the emperor or the emperor of Ao, and of course they can't account for the quota of each flag. However, with your martial arts, Brother Datou, you will definitely be able to ascend in the future by worshipping Tang Ah and selecting the guards. But this time...... Hard. ”

It seems that you still have to go through the path of Kang Mazi! Wang Zhong said with filial piety: Catch Ming'er and go to Mingzhu Mansion to pay respects, he is a little pockmarked party!

"Big brother, do you want to pick a guard this time?" At this time, Guo Jinbao, who was short, dark and fat, and laughed a little obscenely, had already seen through Wang Zhongxiao's thoughts.

Wang Zhongxiao didn't hide it from a few good buddies, so he smiled and nodded immediately: "Jinbao, do you have a way?" ”

"No," Guo Jinbao spread his hands, "This is the way to the sky, where do I have it?" Brother Yin, do you have one at home? ”

"I don't have it at home," Cao Yin still shook his head and sighed, "My mother also arranged a flag lieutenant for me to be a Luan Yiwei." ”

"What? Flag Captain? Guo Jinbao looked envious, "That's from the fourth grade!" It's much more than the Blue Feather guards! Brother Yin, you are only fifteen years old, then you will be from the fourth grade, and there is no one in this official fortune. ”

Cao Yin said: "I can't take office until next year, and I will be sixteen by then!" ”

Sixteen-year-old from the fourth pin...... Wang Zhong said with filial piety: Goods have to be thrown away, and people have to die compared to people! If you put the four products in the local government as a civil official, it will be the same government as the same knowledge, which is equivalent to the deputy mayor of the prefecture-level city. Such a big official, Cao Yin did it at the age of sixteen!

What does it mean to be young and promising? This is the real young and promising!

When Wang Zhongxiao was sighing, he had already followed Xiao Baozi and Guo Jinbao all the way to Dong'an Gate in the imperial city. Dong'an Gate is the east gate of the outer city of the imperial city, not part of the Forbidden City, the core of the imperial city. These soldiers were all wearing jackets, warm hats, and waist knives, and they looked quite fierce...... Of course, it is not as fierce as Wang Zhongxiao!

As far as Wang Zhongxiao's figure and appearance inherited from Wang Fuchen are concerned, they are eye-catching everywhere in this era. So as soon as he followed Zhang Xiaobao to the door of Donghua, he was targeted by an "uncle"!

"Little Baozi, you have brought someone to the imperial dining room to eat again...... He also brought such a big man, did he want to make the emperor's family poor? ”

Wang Zhongxiao turned his head to look when he heard the sound, wanting to see who was so nosy, and when he looked back, he found a group of "blue jackets" - everyone was in blue jackets and melon skin hats, and the leaders were fifteen or sixteen-year-old children, and they didn't know where they came from?

When he was pondering, Zhang Xiaobao, Guo Jinbao, and Cao Yin had already stepped forward quickly, saluted the child, and said in unison: "Say hello to Uncle Fu." ”

Uncle Fu?

Wang Zhongxiao thought to himself: Who is this? So the young is the "uncle", is it high in seniority or hard in the background?

He was thinking about it, Zhang Xiaobao had already found that Wang Zhongxiao and Li Jixiang were still stunned, and hurriedly turned around and shouted: "Big head, auspicious, come over and say hello to Uncle Fu!" ”

Do you want to say hello? This "little uncle" seems to be a character? Wang Zhongxiao glanced at the "little uncle" again, and found that he was an ordinary-looking child, with big cheeks and ears, and he was not tall, so he was a little taller than Zhang Xiaobao, and most importantly, there were no pockmarks on his face...... looks like Kangxi, but he must be an "uncle"-level character!

Therefore, Wang Zhongxiao still stepped forward with a smile on his face, and deliberately made a very hasty salute, and said with a smile: "Big head, please Uncle Fu Da'an." ”

Li Jixiang, who was with him, was much more respectful, and he flicked his horseshoe sleeves and made an extremely standard salute: "Li Jixiang, please be safe to Uncle Fu." ”

This salute is actually a very common etiquette among the flag people, and this ceremony can be performed between peers and neighbors. Of course, the thousands of gifts between peers, neighbors, and friends are not so formal, and Wang Zhongxiao used the "Thousands of Gifts for Seniors" when he greeted this "Uncle Fu"...... It's sloppy, but it's intimate.

And Li Jixiang is a serious officialdom in which the subordinates give thousands of salutes to their superiors.

Although Li Jixiang's attitude was more respectful, this "Uncle Fu" was still more interested in Wang Zhongxiao, looking up at the tall "Wang Datou" with his neck up, and asked with a smile: "Big head?" The head is pretty big! In flags? ”

"Yes!" Wang Zhongxiao smiled stupidly, "The Ministry of Internal Affairs is covering the Han army with a white flag." Then he also asked rhetorically, "Little uncle, which flag are you?" ”

"Me?" Uncle Nafu was stunned for a moment, and then replied with a smile, "I am from Manchuria with a white flag." ”

"White flags?" Wang Zhongxiao inquired, "Yellow belt, right?" ”

Uncle Fu smiled even more happily, "I really guessed for you...... You're a big guy and a friend of Little Buns, right? ”

Wang Zhongxiao said nonsense with a loyal face: "Back to the uncle, the little bun is my senior brother, and I am here to learn to make buns with Deputy Chief Zhang." ”

"Learn, learn to make buns? You? Uncle Nafu was amused, "You can do it, you can be selected as a white-armored soldier in Bayala a few years ago, and you actually want to be the cook of the imperial dining room?" Can you breathe a little more? ”

Wang Zhongxiao said seriously: "Uncle Fu, this is bad, I didn't have to learn to make steamed buns to be a cook...... Don't you have a lot of skills! After a while, I'm going to pick Tang Ah and the guards, I'm a clothed Han army, it's a bit difficult to pick up the guards in one step, if you only pick a Bai Tang A, it's not bad to go to the imperial dining room in the future, at least there is food and drink. Uncle, do you say yes? ”

"Hahaha!" Uncle Fu laughed and said, "You're very interesting...... Let's go, follow Uncle Ben to the imperial dining room to eat! ”
