Follow the Emperor Taishang to Xiyuan, wait in the outer hall of the Dust Palace, and when the Emperor Taishang completely settled down and summoned again, it was already approaching dusk.

Seeing the Emperor Taishang in the Emperor's bedroom, perhaps returning to the familiar residence, the Emperor Taishang's spirit and spirit seemed to be much better.

He did not lie down, but sat on a wide ondol. In front of him, there was actually a chess table.

Feng Xiang was a little stunned after seeing Jia Baoyu salute, and prompted: "His Royal Highness King Jing, don't sit down and talk with the old emperor for a game." ”

Jia Baoyu seemed to react at this time, and walked to the end of the kang and sat down.

The emperor didn't speak, and waited for him to sit down in the bento and go first.

Jia Baoyu thought that the Emperor Taishang might have been lying on the sickbed for several days, bored and wanting to move his mind and muscles.

Therefore, he didn't speak, and silently accompanied him in chess.

Emperor Taishang's movements were obviously not as easy and smooth as before. But although it was slow, he didn't seem impatient, and every step was very steady.

Of course, Jia Baoyu will not show the slightest impatience, and even occasionally deliberately delays some of the time to make the whole game look more harmonious.

Nor did he give in.

The Emperor Taishang is obviously a chess lover, and he is extremely skilled in chess.

If he sits opposite the Emperor Taishang like ordinary people and does not dare to leave, although the Emperor Taishang may not be responsible, he will naturally be bored in his heart, and in the future, he may not want to call him a game again.

Of course, not letting it is not the same as going all out to fight it to the death. After all, the Emperor Taishang is a venerable, and at such an age, his chess edge naturally can't be too aggressive.

If you rely on your young spirit and strength, frequently release killing moves, and form a persecution trend, it is even more stupid.

Therefore, if you can do your best to defend and let the Emperor Taishang attack to his heart's content, it is best to win heartily in the end.

Just when he was secretly thinking about how to do this as much as possible, the Emperor suddenly spoke:

"Have you ever doubted your origins?"

Jia Baoyu's spirit was suddenly shocked, and he was about to get up, but he was suppressed by the Emperor Taishang's hand.

After hesitating for a moment, Jia Baoyu replied: "Back to the emperor, Jing Huan had doubts in his heart, but he had no doubts. ”

The emperor was noncommittal, and fell into a son,

Jia Baoyu continued: "The Supreme Emperor is benevolent and sage, has insight into the universe, and has issued a holy decree to clarify Jing Huan's life experience, Jing Huan has no doubts.

Being able to inherit the bloodline of the Emperor Taishang is Jing Huan's luck.

But after all, Jing Huan has lived in the Jia family since he was a child, and he doesn't know anything about his life experience, although he is fortunate to be favored by the emperor, and he doesn't dare to lie and deceive, Jing Huan has some doubts in his heart. ”

Jia Baoyu tried her best to make her words sound pleasant.

"Living in the Jia family since childhood?" The Emperor Taishang also seemed a little surprised, and he asked, "You really can't remember anything from the past?" ”

Jia Baoyu's heart sank slightly, listening to the words of the Emperor, obviously, the Emperor Taishang also knew that he had "suffered from soul disease".

It seems that there is really no rejoicing about the royal bloodline, and the Emperor Taishang is afraid that he has already checked all his past deeds......

"Don't dare to deceive the emperor, Jing Huan, Jing Huan had a serious illness when he was about to turn twelve years old, and although he was lucky to recover, he forgot all the things before......"

Because he didn't know what the emperor knew, he didn't dare to lie, so he could only "tell the truth".

The Emperor Taishang looked at him, suddenly shook his head, and said, "Do you remember that I told you in the palace that night, and when I returned to Beijing, I would tell you about my life experience......

"Jing Huan remembers, I respectfully ask the emperor's grandfather to give me."

Emperor Taishang waved his hand, "Finish this game of chess first." ”

Although Jia Baoyu was a little anxious in his heart, he could only bow down and nod when he heard the words, and continue to play.

At the end of the game, the attendants came up to clean up the mess, and the Emperor Taishang said to Jia Baoyu, who was standing beside him: "The emperor is in mourning, and there is no competent prince in the clan to preside.

Do it well with your heart, don't fall into the majesty of the royal family. ”

Jia Baoyu felt that the emperor's words must be sarcastic, but his old man didn't show it, and he could only respond seriously.

The Emperor Taishang closed his eyes and recuperated after explaining this sentence, and there was no sound at all.

Jia Baoyu was a little dumbfounded, and said that he would tell the answer after playing chess?

Feng Xiang walked up to him, quietly tugged at him, and signaled the direction with his hand.

Jia Baoyu understood and followed him out of the dormitory.

"Mr. Feng, ...... are you?"

Feng Xiang turned his head, his old face was smiling like a chrysanthemum, and he said in a low voice: "Your Highness, don't worry, the old slave will take you to meet someone, maybe you will understand everything." ”

……

In the depths of Xiyuan, in an area guarded by layers of forbidden troops, there is a small courtyard with a locked door.

Jia Baoyu followed Feng Xiang here, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart.

But Feng Xiang didn't say anything, let the principal open the iron cable on the courtyard door, and then smiled at Jia Baoyu: "Your Highness, go in, the people are inside." ”

So far, he has no intention of asking too much, arching his hand to Feng Xiang, he silently stepped forward and pushed open the courtyard door......

"Order everyone to take twenty steps back, and no one is allowed to take a step closer before His Royal Highness King Jing comes out."

Feng Xiang waited for Jia Baoyu to enter, his face suddenly turned fierce, and he ordered the generals around him.

The general already knew in his heart that the personnel in the courtyard were at stake, and he didn't dare to hesitate when he heard the words, so he immediately took people down to control them.

Inside the courtyard gate, Jia Baoyu took a look.

In the middle of the bleak courtyard, a stone table, a teapot, and an old man.

The old man sat on the stone pier, with his back against the stone table, and seemed to be bent on enjoying the beautiful afterglow of the twilight, and did not care about the movement outside.

After a long time, as if surprised by the undeserved quietness, he opened his eyes, and in the cloudy old eyes, a young and handsome face was imprinted.

After being stunned for a moment, he suddenly turned over and knelt down: "Old slave Bao Ran, meet the second master......"

"Bao Ran......? Are you Bao Yong's grandfather? ”

Jia Baoyu only felt that this person was a little familiar at first, but he was very sure that he didn't know him.

At this time, listening to him report his name, Fang remembered that when he saw Bao Yong for the first time, he was followed by an old man in good spirits, as if it was this old man.

Bao Yong said it was his grandfather.

"Back to the second master, it is the old slave ......"

Hearing that it was Bao Yong's grandfather, Jia Baoyu let down his guard, opened his mouth to tell him to get up, sat opposite him, and asked, "As far as I know, we should only have one side, why do you call me the second master?" ”

Doubts have risen in Jia Baoyu's heart.

Bao Yong is a simple boy, he only knows "my grandfather said ......", and he doesn't even know why his grandfather asked him to follow him.

At this time, when he saw his grandfather in the Xiyuan of the Emperor Taishang, Jia Baoyu couldn't help but think about it too much.

Even if his true identity is really Prince Yizhong's son-in-law and grandson of the Zhen family, then he, as a member of the Zhen family, should also call him "Young Master Cousin" or something, rather than the "Second Master" who is so close to nature.

Bao Ran didn't sit down, he stood opposite Jia Baoyu, and said with a somewhat eager expression: "Second master, can't you really remember the old slave at all?" ”

Jia Baoyu frowned, and said, "If my guess is right, the second master in your mouth should be the second son of the Zhen family, called Zhen Baoyu......"

"That's right, that's you, the second master!"

Jia Baoyu stopped talking and looked at him with a brow.

Bao Ran was the same, but after a while, he let out a long sigh and said, "Providence, providence!" ”

Jia Baoyu watched him perform silently.

"It's the Emperor Taishang who asked the second master to come and see me......"

Bao Ran asked, but he was still sighing in his heart.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that there was such a strange thing in the world.

Only now did he believe that Jia Baoyu really had amnesia, because the previous second master was completely a child's heart, and it was impossible to have such a calm temperament and sharp eyes.

"Since the Emperor Taishang called you here, I think the Emperor Taishang has already made a decision, so if the second master has any questions, just ask."

Bao Ran said with blazing eyes.

"Do you know where I came from?"

It's not early, and Jia Baoyu doesn't want to talk nonsense, so she gets straight to the point.

"Know ......"

Jia Baoyu's expression was straight, he saw the teapot and teacup in front of him, poured him a cup of tea, handed it over, and said, "The old man may tell me the original?" ”

Bao Ran smiled bitterly: "The second master doesn't have to be so polite to me, since the second master wants to know his life experience, the old slave should know everything......

Jia Baoyu didn't bother, and listened to him quietly.

"Sixteen years ago, the Yizhong prince failed in the mutiny, before he killed himself in the imperial city, in July of the same year, the Yizhong palace was slaughtered by thieves, and the fire was extinguished overnight, and afterwards, after the imperial court investigation, it was determined that the two hundred and seventy-four people in the palace at that time, including the princess, did not survive ......"

Although he had heard people talk about it many times, but when he heard it again, Jia Baoyu couldn't help but be a little frightened.

is different from the Feng family, those people may really be the relatives of his body.

Bao Ran seemed to care more than Jia Baoyu, he clenched his fists, and there was a strong hatred in his eyes, which he couldn't hold.

However, none of them knew that the princess had a premonition long before the prince's incident, and handed over her child, who was only a few months old, to her father, that is, my lord, for adoption in advance.

The one who died in the palace was not the real Seventh Prince at all! ”

Hearing this, Jia Baoyu's heart was shocked.

Shouldn't it be adopted by the Jia family?

How could it be the princess's father?

The princess's father, isn't that the old lady of the Zhen family?

Holding back the shock in his heart, Jia Baoyu continued to listen:

"When the lord learned of the tragedy in the palace, he was overwhelmed with grief.

He knew that someone was going to deal with the palace and make the palace cut off, and that person, the master couldn't afford to provoke him.

Therefore, the old man did not dare to leak the news that the little prince was not dead, but took the opportunity of losing his beloved daughter and being sad, and moved his family back to Nanjing to live.

In order to better hide the identity of the little prince, the lord let his daughter-in-law fake pregnancy, and in April of the following year, he pretended to give birth to a son, but in fact, he took this opportunity to bring the little prince home to raise him. ”

Bao Ran's eyes fell into memory, and he said: "However, at that time, the little prince was already more than a year old, and he was a chubby, well-behaved and cute little master.

In order not to expose this matter, he deliberately declared to the public that the little prince was born with a weak illness and could not see the wind, and only had a personal nurse to take care of him, so that no one else could see it.

In this way, the matter was finally hidden.

Hehehe, the old slave still remembers that when the little prince was one year old, relatives and friends met the little prince and asked how our wife raised the child, and she could raise it so strongly.

How did they know that the little prince was actually more than two years old at that time......"

Jia Baoyu was stunned, his face was a little ugly, and he said, "So, the seventh prince of the Yizhong Royal Mansion is actually Zhen Baoyu?" ”

Bao Ran glanced at Jia Baoyu, he knew what Jia Baoyu was thinking, so he said directly: "Exactly, that's why I call you the second master, you are the little prince, and the grandson of my master!" ”

Jia Baoyu looked at him, waiting for his explanation.

If it was before, he would naturally be willing to be the son-in-law of the Guogong Mansion and be a Jia Baoyu.

But now that he has been pushed to this position, if he is not the blood of the emperor, but has been pushed up by the "chess player" for various reasons, it will undoubtedly be a huge blow to him.

Because if that's the case, his future path will definitely be nine deaths and one life.

"I don't know if the second master still remembers what happened when you went to Nanjing?" Bao Ran asked.

Jia Baoyu nodded, he naturally remembered.

That's when he crossed over!

Wait, listening to Bao Ran's tone, it doesn't look like treating a fake.

He always felt that he was Jia Baoyu, and there was nothing suspicious from beginning to end, but he said that he was Zhen Baoyu......

If he hadn't lied, then the problem would have arisen before he crossed over.

This was also his previous guess.

With a glint in his eyes, he stared straight at Bao Ran.

Bao Ran said: "Speaking of this matter, even the old slave feels a little strange now, because there are too many mysterious things and coincidences in it......

That's it, I know that the second master is anxious, so let's just say it.

The second master is actually not the second master of the Jia family, but the little prince who has lived in the Zhen family since he was a child, but when the second master of the Jia family went to Jiangnan for treatment, he happened to meet him, and by chance they exchanged identities......"

Jia Baoyu looked at Bao Ran directly, wanting to see how sincere he was.

Swapping identities? Serendipitous Chance?

How does that sound like talking......

Well, he even encountered such an authentic element as crossing it, so let's be serious.

Therefore, he put aside his thoughts of complaining and hit the nail on the head: "You mean, I changed identities with the second master of the original Jia family, so I ...... Well, I have amnesia!

Could it be that the other party also lost his memory with me and can't remember his true identity? ”

Although he knew that Bao Ran's words were a good thing for him, he couldn't be gullible just because this statement was beneficial to him.

Man's greatest weakness is that he is gullible enough to believe good news.

So, he asked with a tone of finding fault.

Bao Ran nodded directly: "Exactly!" Although the second master of the Najia family is different from the second master, he has indeed almost forgotten the past.

Ever since we took him home, he's become an idiot. ”

Jia Baoyu opened his mouth wide and said in a daze: "Jia Baoyu has become a fool?" ”

He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have heard Zhou Rui's family and Mrs. Wang say that the Zhen family's Baoyu was lost, and then he seemed to have become demented, but he never took it to heart......

Before he had time to sigh in his heart, he thought of a more critical point:

"Since I and the second master of the Jia family swapped identities by 'chance', that is to say, the Zhen and Jia families did not find out?

Since none of them found out, how do you know? ”

Jia Baoyu naturally thought so, after he woke up, he was already lying on the bed of the Jia family, and he had no say in the past, after all, he had "amnesia", didn't he? So I don't dare to say that the other party must be cheating on him.

However, both of us have amnesia and don't know things, how can Bao Ran know?

Could it be that he is the mastermind?

How dare he be?
