The True Winner of the Red Chamber

Kang He got excited when he heard it, and hurriedly asked, "How do you say it?"

Zhen Yingjia took a slow look at the cup, Kang He hastily poured him another cup of tea, and handed the cup to him, and he also came to Zhen Yingjia's side and squeezed him, "Your Majesty, please make me wait. "

A smile appeared on the corner of Zhen Yingjia's mouth, and he said, "Do you know that your second emperor uncle has always wanted to intervene in the guards of the capital?"

Kang He nodded, and said: "Not only him, everyone wants to—" He didn't finish speaking, after all, the guard of the capital is a key position, whoever holds this position, even if the throne does not fall on him in the future...then It is also a contending strength.

"But the leader is the emperor's grandfather..." Kang He frowned.

"More than that," Zhen Yingjia said deliberately, "even the deputy commander, Pang Ge, belongs to the emperor."

Kang He hummed first, then his eyes lit up, and said, "It's really well hidden!" Then he became excited again, "If it's used well..." He just looked at Zhen Yingjia again and sighed, "You don't even wait like this?" The news... the imperial grandfather even told you such news..." He shook his head while talking.

Of course the emperor didn't tell him the news, but Kang He didn't need to know so much. Zhen Yingjia just nodded and said: "No one in the guard camp dares to attack, but since you know that he is the emperor's man, or the emperor's hidden pawn, That can also be used.”

Kang He said with a smile: "It is precisely this Pang Ge's eldest son who gave birth to a grandson for him, and he took this opportunity to make friends."

"Don't dare to get too close." Zhen Yingjia emphasized.

Kang He smiled again, "I understand, after all, he belongs to the emperor's grandfather, even if he made friends quietly, he would still tell the emperor's grandfather." After speaking, Kang He smiled thoughtfully, "But if If you use it well, you may be able to show your face to the emperor's grandfather."

Zhen Yingjia said: "You decide for yourself."

Kang He came over and hugged Zhen Yingjia, teasingly said: "Come and ask Xiao Wang to thank Mr. Zhen. Mr. Zhen praises Mr. Zhen for his good physical strength. Why doesn't Mr. Zhen use it?"

Zhen Yingjia deliberately half-pushed and asked him to untie his shirt, but Kang He was still a little distracted, rubbing Zhen Yingjia while still saying, "We can always find a chance to meet Pang Ge, when the time comes, just throw something on the ground, he If he sees it, he will definitely pick it up for me, and if he adds a little fuel to the flames, it can be said that he is loyal to me, and they will come up with this set."

Zhen Yingjia got angry when he rubbed him, but his movements were so slow, as if he was scratching his boots. He pushed Kang He on the bed, but stood up by himself, "Your strength is not in the right place, it's like nothing gone."

Kang He absolutely cannot be accused of such crimes, he quickly pulled Zhen Yingjia back to the bed, "Just now I ate Lord Zhen's mutton, I am full of strength, Lord Zhen taste it carefully?"

This torment lasted another whole day, and Zhen Yingjia soaked in the tub in the afternoon, thinking that although this Muxiu didn't take a break, at least one of the characters Mu was worthy of the name.

In two days, it will be the full moon of Pang Ge's grandson, but when Pang Ge came to send the invitation, there was not much joy on his face.To say that although he is the emperor's confidant, but he is a confidant behind the scenes, there are advantages, but there are more fears.

For example, the full moon banquet, he actually refused in his heart, because as a deputy commander of the Imperial City Guard Battalion who has no background and has not been drawn into his command by anyone, holding such an optional banquet is a signal: you guys It's time to give a gift, I'll see if I'm satisfied.

It's just that although he didn't want to do it, the master above him didn't think much of it.

The position of crown prince has been vacant for nearly two years, and the emperor is gradually getting old. During the period, the princes said that they each depended on their own abilities, but two of them have been completely folded in. Although the old emperor is reluctant, he also knows that he can't delay any longer. After two years, others have not been confused, and when they are still in power, choose a successor carefully.

If Zhen Yingjia or Kang He heard that the emperor was so happy, they would be overjoyed.

What the emperor wanted was to choose a successor, not the crown prince... This means that Kang He has already entered the emperor's eyes in terms of the succession to the throne, and his weight is not low, otherwise the emperor would not use the successor. A word to replace the next emperor.

It's just that no one said what the emperor was thinking, even he himself didn't realize it.

Let’s talk about Vice Commander Pang’s grandson’s full moon banquet. Although the emperor said that he wanted to do it, Vice Commander Pang also kept an eye out. It's a day for Muxiu, but there are three more days, maybe someone has already made arrangements.

It's just that the sky doesn't follow people's wishes. When they heard that Vice Commander Pang was going to hold a full moon banquet for his grandson, basically those who were interested pushed back all their arrangements for this day.

Three days passed in a flash, and soon it was the right day.

Kang He didn't go, but Zhen Yingjia took something to eat and drink, and by the way, let's see who is here today.

Kang He greeted the emperor in the morning, and went to have dinner with the emperor at noon. In fact, it was for one purpose, which meant that he did not leave the palace.

It's just that he is not alone in the emperor's room, the sixth prince and the seventh prince are accompanying him. When Kang He entered, the emperor said rightly: "Today, I will also serve the meals of the sixth and seventh sons, and eat together."

Seeing Kang He coming in, the emperor was a little surprised and asked, "Why didn't you leave the palace today?"

Kang He pretended not to understand, and said, "At first, I wanted to ask Mr. Zhen to go and see the house together, but Mr. Zhen said there was something to do, and it just started snowing outside, so I stayed in the palace and waited for the snow. Let's talk about it."

In one sentence, the whereabouts of the two of them were explained, and the emperor hummed and offered to sit down.

Kang He greeted the two younger uncles again, and then sat down.

Originally, the sixth and seventh princes had all smiles on their faces, but when they saw Kang He coming in, the smiles on their faces faded a bit, and they couldn't sit still.

Kang He knew what was going on, but he didn't leave. Instead, he felt that he had come to the right place.

For his two young emperor uncles, they are young and senior, and it is very contradictory in front of his grown-up emperor grandson. On the one hand, he wants to act like a baby with the emperor, and order colorful clothes because of his young age. Yuqin, it's a bit inappropriate to do things like this in front of his junior, but also to maintain his identity.

So since Kang He came in, the two of them didn't talk much.

Naturally, the emperor's thoughts were not on these two little princes who came to entertain their relatives in Caiyi and couldn't let go. There was only one question occupying his mind: who would succeed the throne.

The emperor glanced at Kang He, and suddenly remembered that this spring, when Kang He was riding with him, he subconsciously asked, "Is the injury on your back healed?"

Kang He was not polite to the emperor, and said directly: "Okay, I was able to draw the two-stone bow again in the past two days." He gestured again, and the movement was very stretched.

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief, and sighed: "The other day you said you wanted to drink deer blood, but something happened and you couldn't drink it. Later, the emperor will make it up for you."

The two princes looked shocked. Since ancient times, there has been a saying that competition for the throne is replaced by competition for the throne. Besides, at this critical juncture, the emperor himself expressed his intention to choose the prince. Although the two of them are young, they are not out of control. The possibility of a fight.

Therefore, when I heard the word deer, I felt very nervous. Taking advantage of his young age, the Seventh Prince opened his mouth first and said, "I want to drink too." But facing Shang Kanghe's smile that seemed to see through everything, his gaze was slightly off. Off.

The sixth prince also said: "I heard that deer blood is good for the body, why don't you drink some for me?"

The emperor laughed twice and said, "You two can't drink."

Kang He also laughed, "The two emperor uncles are too young."

The emperor gave Kang He a reproachful look, and said, "Isn't this what I told you at the beginning?"

The two looked at each other and smiled, this tacit understanding made Liu Qi and the two princes even more frightened, the sixth prince was a little uncomfortable and said: "Kang He wants to have dinner with us today."

Before Kang He made any movement, the emperor first ordered: "Let me have another portion." Even if the matter was settled, the seventh prince gave the sixth prince a look, as if he disliked him for talking too much.

The two princes were not tall, and they lowered their heads halfway to cover up. The emperor was sitting at the wrong angle, so he didn't see the undercurrent at all.

"Did Pang Ge send you an invitation?" the emperor asked suddenly.

Kang He nodded, "Send it, I sent someone to deliver the congratulatory gift."

"You can't do this." The emperor frowned suddenly, causing Kang He's heart to twitch. "Your second and third emperor uncles have both gone, and you are getting older. Although you haven't married yet, you still need to move around more. Maybe someone will take a fancy to you, and your future princess will be there." After the emperor said that, he himself became happy.

Kang He knew that the frown was not aimed at him anymore, so he pretended to be a little shy and yearning, but he was thinking about Zhen Yingjia, he didn't want the princess.

The topic of people in the room suddenly turned to Pang Ge, and at the same time, the banquet at Pang Ge's house also started.

The things Zhen Yingjia gave were quite standard. Although he knew that the drunkard at this banquet was not interested in drinking, he even knew that the emperor wanted to go fishing and enforce the law. , nothing else.

Of course, he, Zhen Yingjia, was also considered a big family brought by Jiangnan, and he was favored by the emperor, so in order to conform to his status, the three-piece suit was made of pure gold.

As for the others, especially the two princes, Zhen Yingjia also took a look at their gifts.It can only be said that although the gift for the child is expensive, it is obviously aimed at the grandfather of the child.
