The True Winner of the Red Chamber

"That's not good," the steward squinted his eyes and looked at the officers and soldiers in front of him, "On weekdays, our treasurer's money is not less filial, and the annual gifts on New Year's and festivals are getting richer every year. Why? ? Doesn’t count now?”

This team of officers and soldiers was led by the deputy general of the general army. Hearing this, he thought that his subordinates had already called Zhen Yingjia, so he might have already heard the words.

The emperor's minister, this is the emperor's minister!

The lieutenant drew out his knife, pointed at the person in charge, and said viciously: "If you don't get out of the way, I will be the first to chop you!"

The steward's eyes were obscure, but he just looked at the strong men under his command, who were only 40 to [-] people, and compared them with the heavily armed officers and soldiers on the opposite side, as well as the noisy voices in his ears, presumably there were quite a few of them coming this time.

The steward moved a little to the side and let the door out.

Unexpectedly, the deputy general didn't go in, instead he turned his head and said with a smile, "Lord Zhen, do you see?"

Zhen Yingjia naturally understood what he meant, and after offending local snakes, she would pull him out as a backstop.Zhen Yingjia smiled coldly and said, "Are you planning to let me take the lead?"

The deputy general laughed twice, "Don't dare." Then he ordered five strong soldiers to go in with their knives.

The rest of the people were waiting outside. The person in charge had obviously recognized Zhen Yingjia, and with just the word Zhen, he clearly knew that this person was Zhen Yingjia who had come to the Jinling Practice Palace two months ago!

The steward's eyes became more and more vicious, but Zhen Yingjia went forward without fear.

"Found it!" The voices of officers and soldiers came from inside the warehouse, and Zhen Yingjia didn't care about confronting the manager's eyes, she pushed aside the people in front and rushed into the warehouse.

Going around a pile of sacks, he saw Kang Ho!

First he breathed a sigh of relief, and then he took another breath.

He was fine, there was no obvious blood on his body, but he was hung up, the corners of his mouth were red and swollen, and there were obvious marks of being beaten on his shoulders.

Seeing Zhen Yingjia bringing someone over, Kang He obviously relaxed.

"Put the person down quickly!" The deputy came in pressing the manager in charge, and immediately ordered when he saw this scene.

Zhen Yingjia had already seen the key hanging on the wall, and within two steps, he opened the shackles on Kang He's hands. Kang He had been hanging for a long time, and when he let go, his hands and feet were a little soft, and he leaned directly on Zhen Yingjia's body.

Zhen Yingjia was very distressed, but it was hard to say anything in front of so many people, so she could only whisper: "See if you dare—"

"So you're not from Lin Ruhai." Seeing now, the person in charge finally understood, "Lin Ruhai won't be able to mobilize the general army, and he will definitely not make such a big show for his spies." It's a pity that they all misunderstood, A lot has been exposed!

The absence of the shopkeeper means that he and his subordinates may not end well, but it is precisely because of the absence of the shopkeeper!They still have a chance to make a comeback!

Zhen Yingjia sneered twice, supported Kang He and waited for him to recover.

"Lord Zhen, what do you think we should do with this person?" The deputy general came up and asked, "Our lord is the commander-in-chief, so we have no right to deal with these people."

But before Zhen Yingjia could say anything, the shopkeeper unexpectedly pulled out a long knife from the waist of the soldier beside him, shouted "Die to the dog officer!", and rushed towards the two of them brandishing the knife.

At this time, Kang He had already shaken his hands and feet, and was able to stand still with his own strength. He also took two steps forward cautiously and tentatively, but he didn't expect to hit the knife edge.

Seeing this, Zhen Yingjia's pupils shrank. Although Kang He was able to leave, he had been hung up for a long time, so he couldn't dodge in time. Besides, no matter what, he couldn't let Kang He get hurt!

Zhen Yingjia swung forward and pushed Kang He up with his right hand, trying to push him to the ground. At the same time, he moved forward with his left arm to block it. This was the least harmful action he could think of.

However, when his right hand was pushed onto Kang He's chest, he was grabbed by Kang He, and at the same time moved to his arms. With this force, Kang He turned around suddenly and hit his back against the knife edge.

It was too late for Zhen Yingjia to think about what to do, only to hear Kang He's muffled snort, and a faint smell of blood immediately permeated the air.

"You dare!" After all, the lieutenant general is an officer and soldier who trains every day. He had already reacted as early as when the supervisor drew his knife, but he thought that this person's superior was considered a figure in the south of the Yangtze River. At the end of the year, the two of them will return to the capital in a short time, so it's easy to talk about letting them go in private.

But seeing that the knife was about to hit the body of the eldest grandson of the emperor, the deputy general didn't dare to hesitate any more. Injuring the eldest grandson of the emperor must be a capital crime. It would be bad if it involved too much. He lifted it up and went directly to the man's neck.

Therefore, the knife was only lightly slashed on Kang He's back, and the force had already been relieved. Most of the bloody smell Zhen Yingjia smelled was from the steward.

Kang He was cut on the back, and it hurt no matter whether he raised his hand or stepped his feet, he could not help leaning most of his body on Zhen Yingjia.

Zhen Yingjia broke out in a cold sweat anxiously, and saw that Kang He's body was covered with blood. Although a lot of it was sprayed from the shopkeeper's neck, Zhen Yingjia couldn't think of so much in her anxiety, she just felt her heart beating, Even the eye circles are red.

"Hurry up and carry the sedan chair!" Zhen Yingjia's voice was filled with anger and worry, and she was afraid of disturbing Kang He, so she kept her voice extremely low.

Several officers and soldiers ran out in a hurry, and a few others were looking for anything useful in the warehouse.

"I'm fine." Kang He whispered in Zhen Yingjia's ear: "The skin on the back is rough and thick, and it will be fine after a few months. Apart from leaving a scar, there will be nothing else."

"Shut up!" Zhen Yingjia said without even thinking about opening her mouth, and then made amends: "Don't talk, be careful to save too much blood."

When the deputy general saw the scene, Zhen Yingjia was afraid that he would not notice him, so he carefully ordered his confidants to go out and deal with all these people.

Just at this time, the officers and soldiers who searched the warehouse found a stretcher with some wound medicine, the deputy general hurriedly took the wound medicine and stepped forward, pointing to the stretcher and saying: "I'm afraid the sedan chair is not as good as this stretcher, why don't you let His Highness lie down first? There are also some wound medicines, although they are not the best, but they can meet the urgent needs, I have already sent someone to find a doctor, and I will let the doctor deal with it when I go back to the city."

Zhen Yingjia nodded, but she didn't use the help of others, and directly started to tear the clothes on Kang He's back with a swipe.

There was a long wound on Kang He's back, but fortunately, the upper half of the wound was slightly deeper and still oozing blood, while the lower half had only torn two layers of skin, but there were a few blood beads hanging on it.

Seeing this, Zhen Yingjia was finally relieved, and evenly sprinkled the wound medicine on Kang He's back.

Maybe it's because the salt gang is a knife-edge business, among other things, the wound medicines are all high-quality, and the blood stopped before it took a cup of tea.

Zhen Yingjiasong was able to breathe a sigh of relief, and called four Kong Wu's powerful soldiers to carry Kang He out.

Kang He was lying on the stretcher, and still looked sideways at Zhen Yingjia, mouthing to tell him that he was fine, and feeling that Zhen Yingjia came in time.

Zhen Yingjia also relaxed now, and worried about the injury on his back, persuaded him with kind words, and returned to Zhen's residence without any idea.

The doctor had been waiting for a long time. After half an hour in a hurry, he finally treated Kang He's wound again, and said to Zhen Yingjia, "The wound on His Highness's back is not a serious problem. I just felt the pulse. Your Highness is in good health. After shedding so much blood, it takes a month or so to heal, and there is no need to get wet before shutting up."

Zhen Yingjia listened carefully, and the doctor said again: "I will prescribe some medicine to prevent colds and convulsions in a while, and if His Highness has a fever for a while, just give him two doses."

Zhen Yingjia agreed, and asked Ji Chu to fetch medicine from the doctor, and when he returned to the inner room, Kang He had already fallen asleep.

Zhen Yingjia carefully covered him with a quilt, because the wound had not scabbed yet and it was not easy to cover, so she asked the maid to bring some charcoal basins to warm the room.

After taking care of Kang He, Zhen Yingjia went to the main hall. The chief soldier and the lieutenant were waiting in the hall. Seeing Zhen Yingjia coming out, the expressions on both of their faces were unnatural.

Zhen Yingjia saw it, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his face, but before he could speak, the chief soldier spoke first, with an anxious expression on his face, "How is your Highness?"

Although the lieutenant told him just now that the injury was not serious, but the lieutenant is a rough guy after all, he was injured on the practice ground all day long, and the eldest grandson of the emperor has delicate skin and tender flesh. If you don't ask Zhen Yingjia, the chief soldier will not be at ease no matter what.

Zhen Yingjia ignored the rebuttal, and asked instead: "Where are those people in the warehouse?"

The chief soldier looked at the deputy general, and the deputy general spoke righteously: "The person in charge injured His Royal Highness, the emperor's eldest grandson, and has already subdued the law. The rest of them refused to be arrested without a fight, and we have taken them down one by one."

"So there is no one left alive?" Zhen Yingjia asked.

The chief soldier looked at the deputy general again, and the deputy general said: "This kind of murderer should be punished!"

Zhen Yingjia snorted coldly, "You guys—" Before he finished speaking, he left a tail on purpose.

Firstly, although these people are dead, this matter is not over yet. How to deal with it can only be decided after Kang He wakes up and discusses with him. The important thing is that Kang He was imprisoned and had a knife cut on his back. No matter how he dealt with it, it was up to the two of them to decide.

Thinking of this, Zhen Yingjia smiled instead, and said: "I've been busy all night, and it seems that it's already the third watch. Are you two going to rest at my place for the night, or?"

Naturally, the commander-in-chief couldn't rest here, and there were still five thousand of his elite soldiers outside the Zhen's mansion. Moreover, after such a big incident, how to deal with the aftermath couldn't be figured out overnight.

The chief soldier couldn't help but glanced at Zhen Yingjia, after all, he was young, and this night was enough for them to discuss the countermeasures, but... If the emperor's eldest grandson pursued it, no one would be able to get through it.

In this way...he has to wait for the emperor's eldest grandson to come up with some regulations before he can take countermeasures. It's really anxious to wait!

"I'll take my leave after this. It's getting dark, Master Zhen is good to rest." After the chief soldier finished speaking, he took his deputy to leave, and went out the door to ponder for a while and said, "No one will be seen! Just say that I sprained my foot tonight. Rest!"

Zhen Yingjia watched the two leave, reached out to take the porridge carried by the maid, and went to the inner room.
