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

Chapter 18 Exaggerated performance
Thinking that Yu Zizhen accidentally helped him sabotage a secret operation of Bei Yan, King Zhenbei changed his mind about forcing her to reduce her luggage.

He said to Yu Zizhen: "Don't bring anything worthless. Whatever is missing, you can have someone buy it for you when you get to the capital. I will give you another 5000 taels, and you can have someone reduce what you want to bring." To the fourth car.”

Yu Zizhen's goal was achieved, and a cute smile immediately appeared on his face, "Then I will only bring clothes, accessories, banknotes, cash, and the new earthenware rituals I bought. Two carriages should be enough for these things. "

King Zhenbei: It feels like I was tricked by this girl.

After coming out of King Zhenbei's place, Yu Zizhen went to see her nominal brother Yu Zicheng, the beloved of Princess Zhenbei.

Yu Zicheng was a lucky child. Not only did he have the right to inherit the throne of the Zhenbei Palace from birth, but he also had strong support from the Zhenbei Princess and her mother's family.

He is like a little sun, naturally surrounded by many people.

But Yu Zizhen was different from those people and the little original owner. She would not foolishly pay for Yu Zicheng in vain.Don't tell her whether to invest in advance or not. Even if she invests in Yu Zicheng in advance now, she will only lose all her capital in the future.

Although she is not smart, she has read the plot of the original book, and the little original owner is a lesson for her.

Therefore, although she had made up her mind to go to Beijing from the moment she accepted the mission, this did not prevent her from making up her mind and looting Yu Zicheng's small treasury.

"Brother, if I go to Beijing as a pledge for you, why don't you express your gratitude?"

"A poor family has a rich life, but I am very short of money now."

"You're so good. Don't worry, considering that you gave me all your private money, I will definitely perform seriously from tomorrow on."

Yu Zizhen kept his word, and on the morning of the scheduled departure, Yu Zizhen performed with all his heart. In front of more than a hundred people who announced the decree in the capital, he bid farewell to everyone in the palace with great enthusiasm.

Her sudden enthusiasm made the princess very uncomfortable. The princess was already very cold towards her daughter. In addition, before she went to bed last night, she heard the servant next to her son report back to Yu Zizhen about his idea of ​​destroying her son's small treasury. I successfully coaxed a lot of money from him.

The princess was almost furious at that time. If her confidants hadn't been urging her to put the overall situation first and not to anger Yu Zizhen at this juncture for 800 taels of silver, the princess would have gone to Yu Zizhen's yard and killed her. Drag him out from under the covers and teach him a lesson.

But the servants persuaded her legs and feet, but failed to persuade her mind.She had been tossing and sulking all night, and she hadn't been able to sleep well at all.

Although she appeared in front of everyone this morning with dark circles under her eyes and a tired and haggard look on her face because she hadn't slept all night, which added a lot of credibility to Yu Zizhen's parting scene, Yu Zizhen still didn't dare. Stay in front of her for too long.

After all, she not only harmed the public and enriched her private life, but also used Zhenbei Prince's public funds to buy 1 taels of goods in one go. She also stole hundreds of taels of private money from Princess Zhenbei's precious son.

She understands the principle of giving up when something is good. Now that she has received benefits, she does not intend to continue to tease Princess Zhenbei's sensitive nerves.

After talking to the King of Zhenbei, Princess Zhenbei, Yu Zicheng, and everyone from the Wu family, Yu Zizhen touched her concubine brothers and sisters one by one.

These little babies were pitiful. They were no taller than three pieces of tofu, yet they were picked up by their respective nannies and given away to her.

After showing her reluctance to leave her "relatives" in a rather grandiose manner, Yu Zizhen turned around and got into the spacious and comfortable two-horse carriage prepared for her by the palace.

Aunt Hong, who was assigned to her by the princess, followed closely and wanted to get on the train, but was blocked by Yu Zizhen at the door of the carriage.

Yu Zizhen smiled and waved his hand towards her, "I don't need anyone to serve me here, so there's no need for grandma to get in the car." She actually wanted to rub against her carriage, because she thought she didn't know what the princess said to this old guy last night, or what? Do you think she doesn't know how this old guy cursed her in private?

If you dare to have bad intentions towards her, just go and squeeze into a carriage with other servants.

Chong Zhenbei Wang and others bowed one last time, and Yu Zizhen simply closed the door and bolted it, refusing to allow Grandma Hong to get in the car with practical actions.

Aunt Hong gritted her teeth in hatred, but she did not dare to disobey Yu Zizhen in front of the people from the capital and the King of Zhenbei.

She dejectedly went to the carriage where the other maids and servants who couldn't ride horses were riding. The guards with good horses rode around Yu Zizhen's carriage.

The King of Zhenbei didn't pay attention to such trivial details. He exchanged a few words with the officials and eunuchs from the capital, and the huge motorcade started to move slowly.

Mr. Jiang, one of the closest aides of the King of Zhenbei, bowed deeply to his master and said, "Your Majesty, I am leaving."

King Zhenbei helped him up with his own hands and said, "I'll leave all matters in Beijing to you, sir."

Mr. Jiang solemnly promised, “I will live up to the prince’s trust.”

"Finally we can leave." Feeling the carriage begin to move forward slowly, Yu Zizhen immediately opened one of the boxes she carried with her.

In the box, Xinghua, who was blinking with dark eyes, was curling up with her little body, lying obediently between two pieces of soft and warm fox fur.

Yu Zizhen raised his index finger to his lips and made a "shh" gesture with her.

Xinghua understood. She pressed her little head a little harder to show that she understood, and then she climbed out of the red lacquered wooden box where she was hiding without saying a word.

Yu Zizhen touched the little guy's head and motioned for her to come over and sit next to him.

Xinghua was very obedient, she would do whatever Yu Zizhen asked her to do, and she would never do anything if he was not asked to do anything.

For example, after the previous imperial edict of canonization came down, she never once mistakenly called the "Crown Prince" as "Princess Princess". Unlike Cuiyu and the others, they still need a process of adaptation.

Another example is now, because Yu Zizhen told her in advance not to talk while riding in the car last night, so she really sat there obediently without saying a word the whole time.

Sitting around and being bored, Yu Zizhen took out some steamed dumplings and purple sweet potato cakes that she had won through a lottery, and told Xinghua to take whatever she wanted to eat.

Xinghua didn't eat in the morning. When she saw something to eat, she immediately grabbed a drawer of steamed dumplings and a bag of purple potato pancakes with her little hands.

Although she is a child, she doesn’t have to make a choice when it comes to delicious food, she wants to eat them all!

Yu Zizhen smiled and handed her a clean wet handkerchief, gesturing for her to wipe the sweat and dust on her hands.

Xinghua wiped her hands obediently, and then squinted her eyes to enjoy the food. Yu Zizhen, who didn't want to eat, closed his eyes and figured out how much the money and items he brought out from Zhenbei Palace were worth, and what to do with them. For flowers.
