After being turned into cannon fodder, I relied on involution to survive

Xiao Yuanjin was looking forward to today's trip out of the palace. Because he was so excited, it was rare that it was not because of physical discomfort but because of emotional reasons that he stayed up until the third watch before falling asleep in a daze.

Because he has been bored in the house for a long time, his skin has a sickly delicate and pale color. Once there are dark circles under his eyes, the darkness suddenly becomes particularly noticeable.

When she first saw his appearance, Yu Zizhen was startled. She took three steps at a time and approached Xiao Yuanjin, "What are you doing?"

"I didn't sleep well." Xiao Yuanjin's face turned slightly red and she explained in a low voice with embarrassment, "It's my first time out of the palace, so I'm a little excited."

Although he actually lived outside the palace before his father became the emperor, he was still a little kid at that time. Even if his parents took him out to play, he couldn't remember those details.

Things that he had no memory of were actually quite different from things that had never happened, so in Xiao Yuanjin's mind, this was the first time he went out to play on the street.

"Then let's go back early at noon. After lunch, His Highness can take a nap at my place."

Xiao Yuanjin nodded slightly, "Then what should we do now?"

"Shopping, shopping, eating snacks, and when you're tired, go to a teahouse and sit and listen to people reading or playing Allegro." She took out a large money bag filled with copper coins and broken silver from her treasure bag-like sleeve pocket, " Well, I have prepared the funds."

When Xiao Yuanjin saw this, he immediately took out a small money bag from his sleeve pocket and said, "I brought out the banknotes."

He had little experience and didn't know that it was difficult to spend money like silver notes at a vendor's shop. For convenience, he simply didn't bring any gold or silver with him.

Yu Zizhen was a little curious, "You didn't bring out all the banknotes in your private money, did you?"

Xiao Yuanjin nodded, "I don't know how much money I need, so I just brought more."

This poor kid has never paid for anything by himself, and has no idea about prices. After finally coming out, he wanted to buy some gifts for his father to take back.

After buying it for his emperor father, he had to buy it for his nominal grandmother, the Great Lu family.

As for Xiao Lu, as the emperor's stepmother, she has always shown her hostility towards Xiao Yuanjin blatantly. Even if Xiao Yuanjin doesn't buy her share, except for a few weirdos, almost no one will find fault with him for being rude.

He wanted to be prepared, but Yu Zizhen had inexplicable worries about his property because of his nod.

She said to Xiao Yuanjin: "How about you give me the money bag for safekeeping."

When the leader of the guards who was responsible for protecting Xiao Yuanjin heard this, his eyes suddenly opened to their maximum size. As a result, before he could criticize what Yu Zizhen was saying, Xiao Yuanjin had already handed the money bag to Yu Zizhen obediently.

He didn't even ask why, as if it wasn't strange at all for Yu Zizhen to make this request.

It felt good to be trusted. Yu Zizhen took the money bag with a smile, and then sent it to the system warehouse under the cover of Guangxiu.

Put it there, she didn't believe that any thief could steal Xiao Yuanjin's private money.

She did not take over Xiao Yuanjin's wheelchair like she did in the palace before. Instead, she walked on his left side with a smile, talking to him while protecting his personal safety without leaving any trace.

The Xiao Naiyin system was also repeatedly told by her this morning. Yu Zizhen asked it to use its 12 energy to help Yu Zizhen monitor the entire capital while Xiao Yuanjin was out of the palace. Although the Xiaonaiyin system was very disdainful of this and said that it had been helping Yu Zizhen monitor the entire capital. Otherwise, she would have been killed by someone when she danced so much, but Yu Zizhen still warned her again and again like an old mother.

The two got on the carriage brought by Yu Zizhen, and the guards from the palace and the royal palace rode their horses to surround the carriage.

For safety reasons, Yu Zizhen took Xiao Yuanjin directly to one of the most prosperous main streets in the capital. There were basically no ordinary people here. Those who came here to shop and have fun must be at least fifth-rank officials and their relatives.

The servants of the Prince of Zhenbei who were driving the carriage stopped the carriage at one end of the long street in accordance with Yu Zizhen's request.

After the carriage stopped, Xiao Yuanjin's accompanying guards first moved the wheelchair out of the carriage, and then carefully placed Xiao Yuanjin on the wheelchair.

This scene attracted the attention of many pedestrians on the street, but after seeing the tall men wearing palace guard uniforms around the carriage, everyone immediately looked away in tacit agreement.

He was not good enough and was protected by the palace guards. Everyone could basically guess who it was. Although they were shocked why the eldest prince suddenly left the palace, no one dared to cast an inquiring and scrutinizing look at him.

In a short period of time, the officials and their families who had imagined some wonderful dramas could not wait to leave after bowing from a distance.

They were so afraid to avoid him that they even took a brush and wrote "Don't bother me" on their foreheads. This was not what Xiao Yuanjin expected.

As a crippled prince who had no chance of becoming emperor, he had long been accustomed to people who had no ill intentions toward him, and treated him with such an attitude that they were afraid of getting even the slightest bit off from him.

Because he had long been used to it and expected it, his mood did not fluctuate, and he even wanted to laugh a little.

Yu Zizhen also noticed something strange about the people around her. She patted the eldest prince's arm without wasting any words to explain or comfort him.

She thought that since he chose to continue pretending that he was bad at what he did, he must have been mentally prepared to continue to be treated as a useless person.

"Let's go shopping first. It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival. I have to choose some things for Mr. Jiang to send someone back to the north."

Xiao Yuanjin immediately paid attention to it when he heard it. He said: "Then you choose carefully, it is best to choose what you like."

Yu Zizhen was a proton, and her value to the Lu family depended on how much King Zhenbei valued her, so Xiao Yuanjin felt that it was necessary for her to have a good relationship with King Zhenbei and others.

Yu Zizhen couldn't tell the strange things about his family in public, so he just smiled and nodded at him.

Xiao Yuanjin didn't know that Yu Zizhen relied solely on his words to "keep in touch with each other" and to "just do what he wanted" and keep public accounts, so he helped her choose carefully and gave her a lot of pertinent suggestions.

As for Yu Zizhen, this girl agreed without any thought the whole time.

"That makes sense." "That's right." "You're right." "."

The most important thing is that she not only verbally agreed, but also had every gift recommended by the eldest prince packed and sent to Zhenbei Palace.

Xiao Yuanjin gradually realized something was wrong:.
My friend's behavior is too strange. Should he stop shopping and take him to the hospital to see a doctor immediately?
