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

Yu Zizhen put down his brush and was about to show the simple treatment plan to Duke Wei and Fang Huaiying, when there was a sudden noise outside Duke Wei's yard.

After listening to the Xiaonaiyin system relaying the content of their shouting, Yu Zizhen later recalled that in order to grab time, she did not argue with those people, but directly knocked them down. .

If the second housekeeper of the Duke of Guo's Mansion, who has taken refuge with the Duke of Wei and his brothers and nephews, has not returned to his master, his masters will be restless.

After all, Duke Wei is still alive, and the palace of Duke Wei still belongs to him in name. No matter how much his mother, brothers, nephews try to win over and divide the servants and guards in the palace, Duke Wei still has many servants who are loyal to him. The guards are there.

If he clearly supports Fang Huaiying, Fang Huaiying will definitely still be able to compete.

Especially Fang Huaiying's cousins, they know very well what level they are. In terms of personal force and mastery of the art of war, they know that they are far behind Fang Huaiying.

Under this situation, if Fang Huaiying gets the support of Duke Wei again, the probability of their efforts to achieve nothing is too high.

This is why as soon as they got the news, they immediately sent people to stop Fang Huaiying and try their best to prevent him from meeting Duke Wei.

They originally thought that since Fang Huaiying secretly returned to Duke Wei as a hostage, he would not dare to make a big deal out of it and let more people know that he had secretly left the capital.

And as long as he has scruples, the servants they sent will definitely be able to "invite" him to a remote corner far away from Duke Wei. Wouldn't this mean that they would surely capture or even kill him directly?

However, because of Yu Zizhen's unconventional approach, their hastily formulated action plan, to their surprise, completely failed when the first step was implemented.

The guards waited around at the agreed-upon ambush location, but they never could wait for the second steward of Duke Wei and the servants he brought to arrive, so they had no choice but to send a representative to report the news to Duke Wei's second brother.

Duke Wei's second brother realized that the matter might be out of their control, so he brought his third brother, son, and nephews to Duke Wei's yard.

Everyone came over in a mighty manner. Before they could get close to Duke Wei's yard, a group of people lying motionless on the ground appeared in their field of vision.

Some of those people are still very impressive to the brothers and nephews of Duke Wei, especially the second housekeeper of the Duke's mansion who took the lead in this interception operation. None of the brothers and nephews of Duke Wei does not know him. of.

After recognizing these people, Wei Guogong's brothers and nephews almost immediately guessed what happened.

The development they least wanted to see occurred. In order to stop the loss in time, they subconsciously wanted to interrupt the private communication between Wei Guogong and Fang Huaiying as quickly as possible.

Led by the two younger brothers of Duke Wei, they rushed into Duke Wei's yard without saying a word. However, Duke Wei's confidants and personal guards were not like other servants and guards in the Duke's mansion. , often avoid them and even take the initiative to please and flatter them.

Not to mention that only the brothers and nephews of Duke Wei are here now. Even if Duke Wei himself comes to attack, they will not let the other party rush in without hesitation.

One person was assigned to report a letter to Duke Wei. The others were respectful but firm. They resisted the pressure and stopped Duke Wei's brothers and nephews less than fifty meters away from the courtyard gate.

The two younger brothers of Duke Wei were so angry that they yelled and cursed. Two of the guards who blocked them were even beaten by them, but their footsteps could not move even one step or two towards where Duke Wei was. . It was not until Duke Wei received the report that he ordered the people who reported the news to invite them all out. In order not to lose face, Duke Wei's brothers and nephews gathered together in despair before the guards and attendants started to "invite" them out. leave.

Of course, they did not give up just because Duke Wei was angry. After leaving Duke Wei, they immediately went to the back house to find their mother, the old lady of Duke Wei's mansion.

Duke Wei was not in a good mood after driving away his brothers and nephews, but he did not show his irritability and depression.

Fang Huaiying helped him to sit down in the hall. He took a deep breath and began to listen carefully to Yu Zizhen's explanation of the treatment plan for his various illnesses.

"You have many physical problems, and they need to be treated step by step. Among them, excessive worry and overwork are the two things we need to solve first."

She pointed at the word "rest" and said to Wei Guo fairly: "I suggest you live in another courtyard or in a village. Otherwise, you can let me follow you there, and it can also keep you away from all kinds of troublesome military camps for a while. "

Duke Wei smiled bitterly. He understood what Yu Zizhen meant. After all, the other party had told him straightforwardly, "If you want to be in good health, you should stay away from these messy things in your family as soon as possible."

He said to Yu Zizhen: "My wife's dowry, Zhuangzi, is now in charge of my daughter. I can find a place to live close to the military camp."

Duke Wei Guo does not have a remarkable origin or background. The titles and military power he possesses today are all obtained by his own efforts.

Of course, he borrowed a lot of help from his in-laws' family in this process.

Duke Wei Guo was a conscientious person. Even though his first wife had passed away for a long time, he never had the intention to marry again, and he was even unwilling to take in a concubine.

All the dowry brought by his first wife was given to him and his first wife's only blood - his only daughter.

He also gave away a small part of the family fortune he had saved over the years to his daughter.

As for his mother, brothers and nephews, they enjoyed prosperity and wealth because of him. Not only did he pay for all the expenses in life, but they also received monthly silver from him. Duke Wei felt that he had treated them with all his kindness and righteousness.

He would not leave the rest of the family property to them. In his opinion, those things should belong to him when he was alive, and when he died, they should belong to Fang Huaiying.

As for the military power in his hands, Duke Wei would not hand it over to his brothers or nephews.

They think very highly of themselves and think they can do this or that. But the problem is, if they really can do this or that, how could Duke Wei prefer to use outsiders instead of his own brothers, nephews, and nephews?

He had talked about this topic with his mother countless times, but his mother, like his brothers, nephews, was dazzled by power and wealth, and could not listen to his rather heartbreaking truth.
