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

The King of Zhenbei was in a good mood. After writing the letter, he went to the Princess of Zhenbei to praise Yu Zizhen.

Princess Zhenbei looked proud on her face, but in fact, she was particularly depressed by his compliment.

In her opinion, since Yu Zizhen entered Beijing, she has completely lost sight of her as a mother.

After all, Yu Zizhen not only arranged for all the people she sent to farm, but he also didn't reply to any of the letters she wrote and made some small requests to her.

She didn't care what kind of unreasonable demands she made in the letters she wrote. She only knew that as a junior, Yu Zizhen dared to ignore a letter from his own mother, which was simply treasonous.

After seeing off the prince, she couldn't help but write another letter to Yu Zizhen. In the letter, she asked Yu Zizhen to hand over the intelligence network to the person she sent to deliver the letter, instead of Mr. Jiang as requested by the King of Zhenbei.

Yu Zizhen sneered after receiving the letter. He wanted to take advantage of her, right? Just dream.

She personally sent the letter written by King Zhenbei to Mr. Jiang, "If Mr. Jiang wants to ask for something from me in the future, just tell me directly. After all, even if you seek far away from the near and go around in circles to find my father, I will give it to you." If you don’t give it out, you still can’t give it out.”

"As for your so-called intelligence network." Yu Zizhen raised his hand to gesture to his short stature with a helpless expression, "I can only say that Mr. Jiang, please take a look at my small body before he gets crazy next time."

Mr. Jiang was embarrassed by her squeeze. He wanted to say something, but Yu Zizhen didn't give him a chance to speak. She said: "What I asked Yu Heng to read was all made up by her. What she was holding in her hand at that time was the medical book I was reading."

Thanks to her little hobby of wrapping every book in a book cover, look, doesn't this provide her with a ready opportunity to lie.

"My father, Mr. Jiang, replied to my letter on my behalf and said that I would be very willing to serve the Prince of Zhenbei, but I am really unable to do so."

As for the letter from the princess, Yu Zizhen just threw it into the brazier and burned it clean as before. She would think well of the person who left it to her.

Yu Zizhen didn't take this matter seriously. After fending off the covetousness from Zhenbei Wang and his wife, she went about her business.

However, Yao Guang defended her in private privately, "Why are the prince and princess so concerned about the prince's manpower? Don't they know what the prince's life is like in the capital?"

Yu Heng was so frightened that he quickly covered her mouth, "Is this something we can discuss? You should be more careful what you say in the future and don't speak so openly."

Yao Guang blinked and agreed.

Only then did Yu Heng let go of his hand covering her mouth, "The master's affairs are not something we can comment on. If you say what you just said, the prince will definitely be upset. Why bother? What we have to do is Obey the prince and protect the prince."

Yao Guang nodded obediently, "I understand."

The Xiaonaiyin system conveyed the interaction between the two to Yu Zizhen, and Yu Zizhen couldn't help but feel happy after hearing it. Sure enough, she was still loyal to the female guard she had personally selected and trained.

The following spring was another spring period that occurs once every three years.

Different from the one three years ago, this time Chunwei directly triggered large-scale protests by students taking the exam after the results were released.

Yu Zizhen knew the reason.

One of the examiners for Chunwei this time is a short-sighted official who has climbed into the Lu family. Although his eldest uncle Lu Dingchang was from a branch of the Lu family, he relied on his own ability and promotion from the main branch of the Lu family to become the former military governor of the Fifth Army Governor's Office.

As the only high-ranking general in the Lu family who was not wooed by the Lu family through in-law relationships, but was directly from the Lu family, Lu Dingchang had great say in the Lu family.

His brother-in-law, who was so courageous that he actually sold test questions to make money, was only able to be included in the examiner team this spring by the main branch of the Lu family thanks to him.

No matter whether it was the main branch of the Lu family or Lu Dingchang, none of them thought that this guy who usually looked honest and honest would dare to sell Chunwei exam questions privately.

Although he only sold a few on a small scale in order not to be exposed, the problem is that for those families who can afford high prices and have the courage to buy test questions, how can it be possible for everyone in the family to keep secret and not tell anyone? What about disclosure?

Which family doesn’t have a few old relatives in law? The legitimate son has benefited, but what about the concubine? The biological son has benefited, but what about the son-in-law, nephews and nephews?

It spread like this from ten to ten, so many people knew about this test question.

The most incomprehensible thing is that some unskilled guys can't write their own writing and just ask someone to write for them. The key is that they go so far as to find those classmates with good grades to write for themselves.

People didn't know why, so they wrote articles for them, and when they went to take the exam, they memorized the articles written by them intact.

As a result of their foolish move, the leaked test questions quickly spread among the candidates.

The candidates were so angry that they took to the streets one after another, preparing to gather everyone's strength to file a petition at the gate of the palace.

The official who leaked the story was frightened and hurriedly went to his uncle Lu Dingchang for help.

Lu Dingchang was angry that his brother-in-law didn't know the importance and dared to take any money. However, in order to prevent his brother-in-law from harming himself and the Lu family, Lu Dingchang could only hold his nose and help him deal with the aftermath.

He is a rare brave person among Lu officials, but at the same time he is also a rare brainless person. The situation was urgent, so he mobilized his troops to suppress the students without much thought.

Yu Zizhen was systematic and had known about the leak of the title for a long time, but as the crown prince of Zhenbei, she could not get involved in the imperial examination.

After all, she has a father who has a lot of troops. If she continues to benevolent and win over the literati, those in the court will definitely suspect that their father and son have rebellious intentions.

But for such a big matter, Yu Zizhen couldn't really avoid suspicion honestly.

In order to grasp the latest situation in real time and to respond promptly, Yu Zizhen not only asked the system to keep an eye on the students and officials involved, but also arranged some personnel to protect those students privately.

As soon as Lu Dingchang sent troops, she immediately received an emergency notification from the system.

Even though she was used to big scenes, Lu Dingchang's recklessness still surprised her.

She hissed, "Good guy, this guy's courage is as big as the sky."

"Yao Guang, go ask Mr. Jiang to come over!" After sighing, Yu Zizhen started arranging manpower in a hurry.

The people she sent to protect those students before could not jump out and confront Lu Dingchang's troops head-on. Firstly, they could not touch him, and secondly, she still wanted to leave the reputation of rebellion to Lu Dingchang.

As for the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division, who were most responsible for stopping Lu Dingchang from leading troops into the city, they were a group of weaklings who could not be counted on at all, and Yu Zizhen had no expectations for them.
