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

Although they didn't know what Wu Mingyu had in mind, based on his relationship with the Lu family, they didn't think that Yu Zizhen would really establish any classmate friendship with him.

It was not advisable to wait too long at the city gate, so Yu Zizhen immediately ordered the driver to leave the city directly.

Xiao Yuanjin was thinking about solving Wu Mingyu's problem today, so after hearing this, she asked her in a low voice, "Don't you wait for Wu Mingyu?"

"He will rush there by himself." Yu Zizhen knew why Wu Mingyu failed to make it to the meeting time, but she did not intend to lead everyone to wait for him at the city gate.

She ordered one of the attendants who came out, "Uncle Peng, could you please leave a message to Mr. Wu Mingyu and Mr. Wu, saying that it is not advisable to stay at the city gate for a long time, and we have already gone to the temple fair first."

The other party responded with a yes, and left the team, standing in a remote corner that would not hinder the entry and exit of pedestrians, carriages and horses, and waited for Wu Mingyu and his party.

What he didn't know was that Wu Mingyu wouldn't be able to come in a short time.

why?

Because just before Wu Mingyu left, something bad happened in the Wu family that was closely related to him.

Wu Mingyu attached great importance to this trip to the temple fair. In order to quickly get closer to Yu Zizhen, he temporarily planned a play: "The eldest prince was assassinated. He and Yu Zizhen fought side by side, and during the battle, he was stabbed by the assassin in order to protect each other." old-fashioned drama.

The reason why the plan was to "fight side by side and then block the opponent's knife" instead of directly planning for him to save Yu Zizhen was not because he did not want this "life-saving grace", but because he simply did not have the ability.

The Wu family is just an ordinary official family, and the people who look after the family and care for the home are not the kind of highly skilled professional guards at all, but young and strong ordinary servants.

There is no external force of reasonable origin for Wu Mingyu to rely on, and Wu Mingyu himself is an ordinary scholar who has never studied martial arts. No matter how greedy and anxious he is, when designing the plot, he still has to consider whether the plot is reasonable and credible.

For the same reason, the "assassin" Wu Mingyu couldn't choose directly from his own family.

He thought about it again and again, and finally chose to shamelessly ask his grandfather for help.

Although his grandfather was only a side branch of the Lu family, he had always had a very harmonious relationship with the main branch because he was good at flattering people.

Thanks to the blessing of the main branch, his grandfather has benefited a lot over the years, and Wu Mingyu, who was as good at flattering and flattering as his grandfather, managed to win his grandfather's favor.

He ran over and told him, and his grandfather immediately agreed to lend him a group of men to pretend to be assassins.

But his legitimate uncle and cousin couldn't see him being proud. They were already very dissatisfied when his grandfather favored him and treated him better than other concubine grandchildren. Now he actually helped him climb the main tree. Dashu, his direct uncles and cousins ​​suddenly couldn't hold back.

If Wu Mingyu really did this, then he wouldn't be able to ride on them in the future? Will their family still have a voice like their direct descendants?

His uncle couldn't help but personally compete with a junior, so he sent one of his bastards to cause trouble for Wu Mingyu.

Naturally, his concubine did not dare to express his objections in front of Wu Mingyu's grandfather, but not openly objecting did not mean that he had no means to sabotage Wu Mingyu's plan. Following his father's instructions, he found a few Lu family members who were also commoners, and followed Wu Mingyu to the Wu family last night under the pretext of visiting his aunt.

Then this morning, Wu Mingyu was beaten by one of his cousins ​​in a daze.

The reason was very simple. He woke up in the bed of his cousin's maid.

That girl is his cousin's new favorite. Recently, his cousin has been taking him wherever he goes. Originally, the maidservant of the first-in-law was supposed to be waiting in his cousin's room last night, but for some reason she actually appeared in his room. On Wu Mingyu's bed.

Wu Mingyu was drunk by his cousins ​​in turn last night. He didn't even know how he ran from the table to the bed, and naturally he didn't know how his cousin's maid slept with him.

But how could his cousins ​​listen to his explanation?

Not to mention the one whose maid was sleeping in someone else's bed and was angry. Most of the others already knew what was going on, and even secretly did some push-hands among them. A small half of them didn't know it at first, but they immediately thought that this was something that could be directly used.

Everyone pretended to persuade, but every word you said to me made Wu Mingyu's cousin even more excited.

The more excited he became, the more ruthless he struck. Before Wu Mingyu could even say a word of defense, he was already beaten with a black nose and a swollen face.

Wu Mingyu was depressed. He actually didn't want to drink with his cousins ​​last night. However, his parents were soft-tempered and did not dare to offend these Lu family members. Even though he knew that he had important things to do today, drinking like this would delay things. Son, his parents still didn't dare to show their strength as elders and forcefully stop these people from making him drink.

Although he was fifteen years old, he was the youngest one in front of his cousins. A group of them gathered around him to persuade him to drink. If he didn't drink, they wouldn't let him leave. He couldn't stay awake all night, and finally I can only drink with them due to the situation.

Wu Mingyu also didn't expect that his parents didn't even have this vigilance, and actually let people plot against him.

Yes, their Wu family's house is small and there is no special guest courtyard. When the cousins ​​come, they always live in his and his brother's courtyard. But even so, his parents, his brother, and the servants in their house, they are so There are many people, and it's still in their own home, why can't they still see him alone?

Wu Mingyu felt a strong sense of powerlessness in his heart. With his parents and brothers lying flat, he was the only one who was uneasy about the status quo and eager to change his situation. This was not the first time he experienced it, but every time It made him even more exhausted and chilled.

He closed his eyes and gave up on himself for a short while, until his cousin, who suspected that he had been cuckolded, couldn't beat him anymore and stopped panting. Then he opened his eyes and grinned. Support your body with your arms to sit up.

When he opened his eyes, Wu Mingyu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

This is not the room where he usually lives, and he is not in his room at all.

After taking a closer look, Wu Mingyu immediately judged that this was one of the rooms that his family had set aside to entertain guests.

What else does Wu Mingyu not understand now?

This must be because after he was drunk, someone avoided the eyes of the servants around him and sent him to settle in this room that was originally used by their family to entertain guests. (End of chapter)
