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

On the eighth day after Yang Zhengde faked his death, Yang Shixian and his mother began to pack up their things and dispose of their property. The news quickly spread, and not long after, everyone in the capital who paid attention to the Yang family knew that Yang Shixian was preparing to return home with a coffin.

The emperor was heartbroken that a loyal and upright minister like Yang Zhengde could not die a good death. He had already vomited blood and fell into a coma when he first heard the bad news. Although the imperial doctor quickly revived him, he was asked to stay in bed to recuperate because of his damaged vitality.

Until Yang Shixian made all preparations before leaving and entered the palace to say goodbye to the emperor and his son, the emperor was not allowed to get out of bed.

The imperial doctor responsible for treating the emperor was sent by the Queen Mother Da Lu. The Da Lu family was actually very angry about Yang Zhengde's death.

As Lu Tong expected, the Great Lu family did not want to break the current three-legged structure.

She knew very well that without Yang Zhengde and Fan Ting to contain Lu Tong, Lu Tong would soon no longer be satisfied with just being an auxiliary minister.

They were from the same mother and had cooperated with each other for so many years. In fact, the elder Lu had already noticed the ambition that Lu Tong thought he had concealed well.

She just didn't expect that Lu Tong would actually attack her directly.

The slight physical discomfort she felt a few days ago was regarded as a normal manifestation of her aging.

It was not until the news that Yang Zhengde died of poisoning and that the emperor was vomiting blood and comatose reached the harem, and Da Lu also fainted in desperation, that she vaguely realized that something was wrong with her body.

She was a very smart woman. After she realized that something might be wrong with her, she did not immediately investigate anything with great fanfare. Instead, she first sent a trusted imperial physician to see the emperor, and then asked someone who was absolutely loyal to her to The confidant eunuch secretly began to investigate what kind of mole was around her.

Not to mention Yang Shixian, even the emperor and Xiao Yuanjin were kept in the dark about what happened in the Queen Mother's Palace.

The only one who knew all the struggles and conspiracies in the capital was Yu Zizhen, who brought his own plug-ins.

She has been very busy recently because there are so many messages to receive and so much preparation work to be done in advance that Yu Zizhen even suspended her original study tasks.

Except for one hour of martial arts training time in the morning and evening, Yu Zizhen basically used all the other time to deal with her complicated affairs that could not be put on the surface.

Because the prices were significantly lowered, Yang Shixian did not sell several of their Yang family's properties in and around the capital as originally planned.

Before leaving, he personally delivered all the property deeds and other things to Yu Zizhen.

Although at this juncture, Yu Zizhen could not directly transfer the Yang family's properties to her own name, but with these deeds given by Yang Shixian, Yu Zizhen could privately take over the Yang family's properties.

Yang Shixian, who had lost a lot of weight in just ten days, did not directly say that he would give these things to Yu Zizhen because he was afraid that Yu Zizhen would not want them.

He handed the box containing the deed to Yu Zizhen, "I want to bring all the servants of the Yang family back to my hometown. These shops and farms are empty. If you are of use, why not take them first."

How dare Yu Zizhen take over the Yang family's property? Just when she was about to refuse, she heard Yang Shixian say again: "If you don't need it, then you can keep these deeds for me temporarily. When I come to the capital again one day, you can Just return these things to me."

Yu Zizhen thought about it, so he accepted the deeds handed over by Yang Shixian. She said to Yang Shixian: "There is no need to wait for you to come to the capital again. When we meet next time, I will return these things to their original owners."

Yang Shixian's eyes widened in surprise. Does Yu Zizhen's words mean that he will also leave the capital in the near future?

Yu Zizhen met his gaze and nodded slightly, "Keep it a secret."

Yang Shi came to his senses first and nodded vigorously towards Yu Zizhen.

Yu Zizhen smiled and told him about his follow-up arrangements for the Yang family, "On the day you set off, I will arrange a 'caravan' to set off with you. I have arranged for them to meet you at the city gate by chance. Just walk with your front and rear feet together."

"The leader of my 'caravan' is a fair and fat young man named Lucun. He is very lucky. If you follow him, even if there are a little bumps on the road, you will be able to Turn misfortune into good fortune, and disaster into good fortune.”

Yu Zizhen's words were meant to comfort Yang Shixian, but the native Daqi people were still very superstitious. When Yu Zizhen said this, Yang Shixian immediately believed it.

He firmly memorized the contact code that Yu Zizhen wrote to him, then tore the note into pieces, and finally soaked it in tea, completely destroying the body and eliminating traces.

Facing Yu Zizhen's surprised and puzzled eyes, Yang Shixian explained, "I'm just a scholar who is proficient in riding and shooting. If someone steals this thing from me ten times, I may not be able to detect it even once." .”

Instead of doing this, he might as well just memorize the joint code in his head.

Yu Zizhen gave him a thumbs up and said, "Sail with caution. I'm relieved that you are so cautious."

She did not tell Yang Shixian that he did not need to be so cautious, because in addition to the "caravan" headed by Lucun, Yu Zizhen also sent two other teams, scattered in front and behind the teams of Lucun, Yang Shixian and others.

Of these two teams, one is one of the caravans controlled by Wen Xiaoman. In their team, the number of escorts on the surface alone accounts for half of the total number of people in the team.

The other team was led by Lu Mingxuan, who had changed his appearance, and was a team of official family members who returned to their hometown to visit relatives. Everyone in this team, including those old people, women and children who looked weak and harmless, could be killed. At least three ordinary strong men.

With them escorting them all the way, even if the Lu family wants to eradicate the roots, the final result will be in vain.

After all, with the current discord between father and daughter, the big Lu family, Lu Tong, and the small Lu family, Lu Tong is no longer able to mobilize as many manpower as before.

The Lu family, which was just barely suppressing Yang Zhengde's family and Fan Ting's family, fell by more than one level after the three giants within them had a fundamental conflict of interest.

But Lu Tong could no longer think about this. Under the pressure from the Empress Dowager Lu's family, he ordered the assassins of Yang Zhengde to assassinate Yang Zhengde, and laid the blame for Yang Zhengde's assassination on another of his political opponents, Fan Ting. .

After the Yang family left Beijing, they realized that the balance of the capital could no longer be maintained and would soon be completely chaotic. Yu Zizhen proposed to dig a tunnel in the eldest prince's palace.
