The True Winner of the Red Chamber

Zhen Yingjia was in a trance for a while, and when she came back to her senses, she found that Kang He's hand had become extremely cold.He originally wanted to use his own body temperature to warm him up, but after hearing such a lot of secrets, his own hands became cold and icy.

Zhen Yingjia coughed, feeling that she couldn't keep silent at this time, so she said slowly: "If it's the empress... she does have this ability. Back then, she was the only one who was in charge of the harem. Confidant," Zhen Yingjia frowned, "She can do it both in terms of motivation and ability."

Kang He also said: "The prince was only 14 years old back then." When he mentioned the word prince, his tone was full of contempt, "He hasn't really provoked the leader today, let alone back then, presumably the emperor's grandmother As soon as he said it, he agreed."

Zhen Yingjia shook Kang He's hand vigorously, and his tone became a little calmer.

"At that time, only the emperor's grandmother was in charge. There were two pregnant women waiting to give birth in the room, but they didn't expect to be transferred after the child was born, and his husband was unreliable at all." Kang He sneered, "But I am I admire him very much, he has kept such a secret for more than ten years."

"I still feel something is wrong," Zhen Yingjia hesitated, "If you are really..." Zhen Yingjia paused, knowing that at this time, he had to speak clearly, so he tried his best to speak in a calm tone: "If you are Mrs. Kang Quan was born to the Crown Princess, so there is something wrong with the Crown Prince's attitude."

"He treats Kang Quan well, but he treats you badly." Zhen Yingjia said puzzledly: "I can understand why he praised Kang Quan, because Kang Quan himself is the son-in-law, but to you...he loves the Zhao family so much, but why does he treat you so much?" Cold."

"That's naturally the order of the emperor's grandmother." Kang He said: "The emperor's grandmother, she can let the emperor rest assured that everything will be handed over to her. Naturally, she is superior. Don't look at her now. She is very kind when she is old, in the early years..." Kang He shook his head, "If you think about it, she has been the queen for so many years, even if the crown prince is so incompetent, her status has not been affected, you will understand. "

Zhen Yingjia nodded, "She must have made the prince forget about it."

"But," Zhen Yingjia recalled the first time he entered the palace, "I still remember that in Kunning Palace, the queen talked about you inside and out, and she wanted to mention you in front of the emperor every chance she got. There's nothing wrong with it."

Kang He sighed, "Don't you understand? Even though she had planned to exchange the child back at the beginning, the news of the emperor's victory came back, and the crown princess gave birth to a healthy son, which has been regarded as auspicious. , this matter can only be firmly suppressed in my heart, and I will never see it again."

Zhen Yingjia gave a muffled hum, and then heard Kang He say: "My concubine mother..." He paused, and changed the name from concubine mother to princess concubine, which made Zhen Yingjia feel even more uncomfortable.

"The Crown Princess knew about this, but she couldn't question her in person, so it's not surprising that she would choose to commit suicide." Kang He's pretendingly calm words came from beside his ears, and Zhen Yingjia couldn't bear it. Live on his shoulder and caress twice.

He got so much news that day, and the rest time was long past, Zhen Yingjia was already stiff-headed and hardly turned around, but when Kang He mentioned the princess, it reminded him of two people.

"The two women in your concubine's house." Zhen Yingjia still used the word "concubine mother" to call the concubine, trying to give Kang He a little warmth and encouragement with all her strength. What."

According to those two unclear words, Zhen Yingjia felt that these two people were arranged by the Crown Princess, and there must be someone behind him, but seeing that the Crown Princess was about to be buried, the two of them still had the title of thieves and acted as handymen It's time for the princess to take some action.

"At the beginning, I thought it was strange. The two of them have been serving my concubine's house for at least ten years, and they got a lot of good things. How could their eyelids be so shallow?" Kang He said: "It seems that now I'm afraid that the concubine mother wants to use this reason to leave these two people to me."

There was a little warmth in Kang He's tone, and Zhen Yingjia felt that his palms were starting to warm up.

"This kind of stealing that can be seen at a glance is the reason why the prince dare not do it." Kang He sighed as he said, "It's just... I'm not sure, the concubine already knows that I'm not Her own son..."

Kang He paused for a long time before saying, "No matter what, I'm going to ask."

Zhen Yingjia shook his hand, and said comfortingly: "I don't know if this matter is true or not. Don't mess yourself up first, besides, your mother and concubine will be buried tomorrow. Even if she wasn't... she still raised you like this." For many years, you—”

Before finishing speaking, Kang He interrupted, "No matter who gave birth to me, it is an indisputable fact that my mother and concubine were forced to death by the two of them! As a son of man, I will definitely not let my mother and concubine die with regret!"

The two of them didn't speak for a long time, Zhen Yingjia looked at the bright moon hanging in the sky outside, and said: "It will be dawn in a few hours. Tomorrow will be a busy day, you lie down here with me to refresh yourself."

Kang He nodded, and lay down on the bed by the way, but felt that the posture was uncomfortable, so he pulled Zhen Yingjia and rested his head on his lap.

"Headache." Kang He said.

"Let's take a breath." Zhen Yingjia thought that the two of them had been stuffy in the tent for a long time, so she opened the curtain a little bit, and the moonlight shone on Kang He's face. Face concerns.

"Is it better?"

Although Kang He closed his eyes, he still accurately grasped Zhen Yingjia's hand, and put it on his head, "You give me a massage."

Zhen Yingjia looked at the deep bruises under his eyes and the red and swollen eye sockets that hadn't receded, sighed silently from the bottom of his heart, and pressed the acupuncture points on Kang He's head.

After a while, Kang He's raised eyebrows eased.

"Speaking of which, the cause of this matter is the mother and concubine's side." The atmosphere was just right, and Kang He suddenly said something.

Zhen Yingjia recalled, "That's right," he squinted his eyes, "The empress kept the matter so tightly back then, how could she ask a nanny who had already left the palace to reveal it? How did Mrs. Zhao tell you? ?”

Speaking of business, Zhen Yingjia couldn't help but slow down, Kang He patted him on the arm lightly, "Don't stop."

Hearing that Kang He had returned to normal, Zhen Yingjia felt relieved, and was a little annoyed that Kang He had ordered him like this, so he couldn't help but use his hands a little harder, but he heard Kang He say: "This strength is just right, it's just as soft as if you haven't eaten yet. .”

Zhen Yingjia was angry and laughed, but Kang He suddenly turned over and sat up.

"Kang Quan!"

"Ms. Zhao said that the nanny recognized Kang Quan as me. Afterwards, she felt that something was wrong, so she went to repeat the nanny's words, and only then did she know what was going on."

"There is a problem here!" Zhen Yingjia was shocked.

Kang He quickly continued: "If the queen really did it, how could she leave such a person who doesn't know what's going on and who can leak secrets at any time!"

"Kang Quan." Kang He called his concubine's name once, which was much more meaningful than the last time.

"In addition to this, there are also the court ladies and eunuchs who served your mother and concubine when she gave birth, the midwife, and the imperial doctor, etc. Although it has been a long time, but looking at their resumes over the years, you can always see the clues …For example, whether the queen is doing something in it or not."

Kang He sighed, and said, "It's easy to investigate." He paused again, "I really hope these people are still alive."

Zhen Yingjia knew what he meant. This incident was only 17 years ago. Even if there were any accidents among the servants who served back then, there must be one or two who survived to this day. If they all died, it would be the queen who moved. The evidence of hands and feet.

While rubbing Kang He's head, Zhen Yingjia said, "I was thinking that either I should let Zhiyin come in so that I could use her to visit you from time to time, and it would be much more convenient to have her message. There will be more opportunities for her to give things."

Kang He frowned when he thought of Zhen Yingjia's familiarity with him the last time he entered the palace.

It's just...he thought for a while and said, "It's fine to come in, don't worry, I will take good care of her."

At this time, Zhen Yingjia suddenly noticed a small white spot on Kang He's forehead, which was very obvious against Kang He's slightly wheat-colored complexion. He wiped it off subconsciously, and said, "Where did you rub it, why—"

Unexpectedly, after wiping it, he found that it was not very easy to wipe it off. He turned his hand and saw that the white color was also on his hand.

"Kang Quan."

Zhen Yingjia also called his name.

Kang He glanced at him, Zhen Yingjia hurriedly got out of bed, didn't even care about putting on her shoes, and quickly lit the oil lamp and came up, "Look at my hands."

With that said, he put his hand in front of Kang He.

Kang He grabbed his wrist, but he couldn't see anything unusual. He glanced at Zhen Yingjia suspiciously.

"When I sent Zhiyin back just now, I saw Kang Quan at the gate of the inner courtyard." Zhen Yingjia rubbed her hands together and found a little bit of white, and said, "He looked very weak, and he didn't say a word. Dizzy, I went to help him."

Zhen Yingjia raised her hand in front of Kang He again, "The whiteness came from his wrist. He looked pale because of this."

Kang He was taken aback, then gritted his teeth randomly and said, "Kang Quan!"

Zhen Yingjia understands why Kang He is so angry. Kang Quan, who thought he was about to consume half his life, now finds that he is pretending to use his paleness and weakness to gain favor outside, but Kang He is really doing it for The princess was sad.

But... Kang He can pretend so much, and then think about it because a dead old nanny recognized him as the eldest son...

Just as Zhen Yingjia was about to open her mouth, she heard Kang He sneer, "I used to think his face was hideous, but I didn't expect him to even pretend to be such a thing! It's so good!"

Kang He turned over and wanted to get out of bed, but Zhen Yingjia hurriedly pulled him back, "Do you think this...is it possible that Mrs. As I said, the three of them are a family, and you and the princess are just outsiders."

Besides, the most critical part in this matter is the queen, but no matter whether it is the crown princess or Kang He, even if they have doubts in their hearts, they definitely don't have the courage to go to the queen to ask the truth.

With speculation, Zhen Yingjia couldn't help thinking about the evidence again.

Back then, the three people, the crown prince thirteen and the princess concubine, were only seventeen when they gave birth, and Mrs. Zhao was only 14 years old. From this point of view, Mrs. Zhao, who is too young, is more likely to give birth to an unhealthy child .

What's more, there are many people around the concubine who are waiting on her, and the queen gives pointers from time to time, but what about Mrs. Zhao?Back then, she was just a court lady, and even if she had children, the resources she got were limited.

However, Zhen Yingjia felt that something was wrong. Could it be that the prince just watched the princess commit suicide because of such a lie?He shook his head, the prince wouldn't be so cruel...

but……

Kang He was stunned.

For a moment neither of them spoke.

After a while, Kang He lay back on the bed again, and said word by word: "I have to give them a try!"
