In the next nearly a year, the momentum of Aobai became more and more high.

Sukh Saha, one of the four ministers of Gu Ming, wrote a letter requesting that he be relieved of his post as auxiliary minister, but the intention was to force Ao Bai, who was also Gu Ming's minister, to resign as well.

Ao Bai hated Suke Saha deeply, and even fabricated twenty-four major crimes such as treacherous, long-term ambition, and deceiving the young master, and Kangxi wanted to punish him with Ling Chi and clan punishment.

Although Kangxi behaved quite submissively during this time, he still fought the basis of reason in this matter, but in the face of the blatant worship of "crossing his arms and playing for many days" in front of the emperor, Kangxi, who was still waiting for the final engine meeting, finally chose to forbear, and agreed to hang Suke Saha and exterminate his clan.

It was also after this incident that Kangxi finally made up his mind. In the original trajectory, he will continue to endure for two years, but now that he has Yu Tianlai, a top master, he feels that he has a chance of winning, so he is unwilling to continue to endure humiliation.

After a period of time, Ao Bai really monopolized power and tilted the government and the opposition when Sonny and Sukh Saha died and Curb Bilong shrank his head. And Kangxi also showed extraordinarily obedient, not only repeatedly rewarded and comforted Aobaien, but also added a group of Aobai's cronies to the knighthood, but he quietly transferred these people out of Beijing and sent them to various places.

On this day, Prince Kang Jieshu sent a message to ask Yu Tian to come to the mansion to talk about it.

Yu Tianlai knew that the last moment was coming, and he couldn't help but feel a little agitated in his heart. When he came to Prince Kang's palace, Jie Shu took a set of palace guards' clothes and asked him to change into them, and then put him into a team of palace guards who came to the palace to deliver the decree, and entered the palace together.

When he arrived in the palace, Jie Shu led Yu Tianlai to meet Kangxi in the imperial study. Today's Kangxi Yi changed into a dragon robe, followed by Ji Xiantang and Cao Yin, with extremely solemn faces.

When Yu Tian came to see the ceremony, he split his head and asked: "Mr. Yu, today I am going to capture the ministers of the troubled country, and you are willing to help." ”

Yu Tianlai's expression was calm, and he replied indifferently: "This is what the grass people have promised Your Majesty a long time ago, and it is incumbent on them. ”

"Okay, Mr. Yu is a believer!" Kangxi applauded and laughed, "Now that you come with me, someone wants to see you." ”

Then he ordered Jieshu and Cao Yin to make their own preparations, only Ji Xiantang and Yu Tianlai accompanied him, and the three of them went out of the imperial study and turned around a few palaces, and arrived at a small scale, but quite elegant and dusty palace.

When he arrived at the gate of the palace, Kangxi ordered Yu Tianlai to wait outside, and he took Ji Xiantang to go first.

After a while, someone notified Yu Tian to come in.

Yu Tianlai followed the people to the palace, but saw Kangxi standing on one side with the dignity of the emperor, and the only one sitting upright on it was a beautiful woman who was no more than forty people, but the fine lines at the corners of her eyes showed that her real age was longer.

"Mr. Yu, come and see the Empress Dowager!" Kangxi reminded on the side.

In fact, there is no need for Kangxi's prompting, Yu Tianlai has already guessed that this woman is the legendary woman who left a lot of anecdotes and secret history in later generations, the wife of Huang Taiji, the mother of Shunzhi, and Borzigit Burbutai, who was nicknamed "Empress Xiaozhuang Wen" by her grandson Kangxi after her death.

"Cao Min Yu Tianlai, meet the Empress Dowager!" In the face of this legendary woman who has gone through three dynasties, personal experience, and even concocted countless treacherous things, Yu Tianlai did not dare to slack off, carefully restrained his mind, and respectfully stepped forward to salute.

The Empress Dowager looked at him for a moment, then suddenly chuckled and said, "This kid is also interesting, he looks like he is only in his twenties, but his mind seems to be calmer than that of an old woman like me." It is also his blessing that my Xuanye grandson can have your help, and I also have more peace of mind. ”

Yu Tianlai thanked him: "The Empress Dowager has a reputation, and the grass people dare not be ashamed." ”

"Deserved, deserved. The Empress Dowager said with a smile, "I heard Xuanye's grandson say that you don't want to enter the court as an official, you just want to start a sect and become a generation of martial arts masters." ”

Yu Tianlai just showed a hint of pride: "The grass people don't dare to call themselves grandmasters, but they just hope to pass on the 'Wing Chun' they have created, so that future generations can practice this boxing method and remember the grass people's name, so that their wishes are fulfilled." ”

The Empress Dowager smiled and said: "Sure enough, he is an ambitious child, as long as you are good enough to help my Xuanye grandson do things, your wish will definitely be fulfilled by my old woman." ”

"Thank you, Empress Dowager. Yu Tianlai hurriedly thanked him.

After gossiping these few words, the Empress Dowager turned her head to Kangxi and said, "Grandson Xuanye, since you have made a decision, then let it go, and the imperial grandmother is here waiting for your good news." ”

Kangxi stepped forward and bowed down, and said angrily: "Please rest assured that the grandmother of the emperor will not disappoint your old man." Please wait for the good news of your grandson!"

After bowing upward, Kangxi got up and took Ji Xiantang and Yu Tianlai to go out, walking calmly and firmly, without a trace of urgency.

Looking at the backs of the three Kangxi, the Empress Dowager turned her head and asked, "Su Ma, what do you think of Yu Tianlai?"

There was a woman beside her who stood with her hands down from beginning to end, holding a sheathed ancient sword in her arms, who was the only woman among the four masters of the Beijing Division, Su Malagu, who had followed the Empress Dowager for many years. She replied softly: "This son's martial arts have indeed reached the top, and he is no longer under the slave maid and Deputy Chief Ji." ”

The Empress Dowager shook her head and said, "I'm not talking about his martial arts, but about him as a person." ”

Su Malagu pondered for a moment, shook her head and said, "I can't see through." ”

The Empress Dowager nodded and said, "Yes, not only can't you see through it, but even the eyes that I pride myself on being quite knowledgeable can't see through this young man who is only in his twenties." ”

Su Malagu frowned and said, "Since the master can't see through him, why do you still allow him to participate in such an important matter......?

The Empress Dowager waved her hand and said: "The way of employing people is about one's own needs and the strengths of employing people, and it is not necessary to master everything about this person." Judging from what he has done in the past few years, at least on the matter of eradicating Aobai, he should be consistent with our position. As for whether he has other thoughts, we can slowly observe and explore after this is done. ”

Yu Tianlai followed Kangxi to a relatively remote hall, and saw that Cao Yin had led more than 20 guards of his age to wait here.

Cao Yin and all the guards changed into the tight-fitting clothes they usually wore when they practiced, and stepped forward together to salute Kangxi. Cao Yin said solemnly: "Your Majesty, the minions are ready, just wait for the traitor to come!"

Kangxi saw that the people were high, and no one showed the slightest look of fear, nodded with satisfaction and smiled: "My life, together with the Qing Dynasty, is entrusted to you today. ”

Ji Xiantang, Yu Tianlai, Cao Yin and others said in unison: "I am willing to die for Your Majesty!"

At this moment, a little eunuch ran into the palace quickly and reported to Kangxi that Ao Bai had entered the palace!
