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

Chapter 29 Halfway Through

Mr. Jiang has been observing Xinghua for a while and found that not only is she as neat as Liu Ping'an in doing things and studying, but she also keeps her mouth shut at all times and does not reveal information about Yu Zizhen to anyone because of Yu Zizhen's instructions. .

In order to verify this, Mr. Jiang specifically talked to Xinghua after seeking Yu Zizhen's consent.

He asked: "Xinghua, is the prince feeling better?"

Xinghua blinked her big eyes and replied, "You have to ask Dr. Feng about this."

"Then what is the prince doing now?"

Xinghua looked innocent, "I don't know."

Mr. Jiang: "."

Mr. Jiang asked again: "Then what do you know? Can you tell me?"

"No."

Mr. Jiang refused to give up, "I came to you because I care about the prince. Don't you want the prince to live a more comfortable life?"

Xinghua, "I think so!"

Mr. Jiang hurriedly said: "Then you."

"I won't tell you!" Xinghua was not fooled at all, "I only listen to the prince's words! Just a little bit~"

Okay, let's not even say "you" and say "you" instead. This is because we are wary and think of him as a bad person.

Mr. Jiang summarized it and found that Xinghua’s answers to any questions related to Yu Zizhen can basically be classified as “You shouldn’t ask me about this”, “I don’t know” and “I won’t tell you if I know.” ".

Although it is a bit overcorrected and too straightforward, it has truly overturned Mr. Jiang's arbitrary conclusion that "a fool will definitely leak the secret".

In this way, Mr. Jiang no longer had any legitimate reason to drive Xinghua away from Yu Zizhen.

He acquiesced to Yu Zizhen keeping Xinghua, but suggested that she give new names to both Xinghua and Liu Ping'an.

Without him, it is true that the names of these two people are not suitable to appear in the circle of dignitaries.

How could Yu Zizhen know how to come up with names? She was a complete and utter waste of naming names. After holding it in for several times, Mr. Jiang was still not satisfied. Yu Zizhen, who looked at the sky speechlessly, had an idea and simply borrowed the name of the Big Dipper in the sky.

So, starting from this ordinary night, Xinghua turned into Yaoguang, and Ping An turned into Yuheng.

Although Mr. Jiang was not satisfied, but in the face of Yu Zizhen's little look that said, "If you push me again, I'll act up," Mr. Jiang finally reluctantly agreed to let them use these two names.

The group enjoyed their hardships and compensated themselves as much as possible in terms of food, clothing and accommodation while traveling long distances.

In order to achieve this goal, they planned their itinerary every day and figured out the weather in advance, and tried their best to avoid braving wind and snow or sleeping in the wilderness.

After walking slowly for more than 20 days, they finally completed half of the entire journey.

People coming from the capital were actually a little anxious, but Yu Zizhen had been ill twice before, and his body had not fully recovered. Unless they were not afraid of offending the King of Zhenbei, who had a lot of troops in his hands, how could they dare to rush him?

No one urged him, so Mr. Jiang pretended that none of them were in a hurry.After so many days of traveling and traveling, Mr. Jiang felt that his eldest son needed to rest for two more days to recuperate, so after greeting people from the capital, he sent people directly to Baofeng County to take care of him.

When Yu Zizhen and others arrived, the magistrate of Baofeng County got the news from nowhere and had already led the officials and government servants of Baofeng County to the city gate to greet them.

Yu Zizhen still didn't come forward. She had no interest in these officials who came together to curry favor with Zhenbei Palace, Beijing officials, and eunuchs.

Along the way, their team often encountered officials from various places like the magistrate of Baofeng County, who wanted to find a way for themselves by welcoming, entertaining, and giving gifts. However, Mr. Jiang never ate or took it once They anything.

Their prince has great ambitions, and he can't ruin their prince's reputation just for trivial things.

Especially since they were still under the eyes of people coming from the capital, it was even less possible for him to hand out ready-made evidence to others.

He repeatedly warned everyone in his team, asking them to be honest and behave themselves.

On the other hand, those who came from the capital received more or less benefits in their hands. They did not object to the local officials entertaining them, and they were not polite at all even with food and drinks.

Mr. Jiang did not express any opinions on this. He very wisely restrained the people in Zhenbei Palace, neither participating nor witnessing, and acted like a deaf-mute.

It was the same this time. He went out to say hello and declined the banquet invitation on the grounds that "the prince is young and is tired from traveling and needs a rest." Mr. Jiang asked his bodyguards and chief attendants to lead the way and lead them to an inn to rest. .

For those who came from the capital, the chief attendant of Zhenbei Palace also booked rooms and courtyards for them. Their two teams alone contracted most of the guest rooms and all the courtyards of the inn.

The group of people entered the inn in great force, and under the warm but cautious greetings of the innkeeper and waiters, they each found a room or a small courtyard to stay.

No one noticed that the moment Yu Zizhen entered Baofeng County, his eyes suddenly became strange and complicated.

She closed her eyes, leaned against Yaoguang (Xinghua)'s body, and quickly received the detailed information about the cannon fodder rescue mission given by the system.

"Prince, the inn has arrived." The carriage slowly drove in from the back door of the inn with the threshold removed. Madam Zhang, who had been sitting at the door of the carriage, whispered to Yu Zizhen to get off the carriage after it stopped.

Yu Zizhen opened his eyes, "I want to live in a quieter place."

Madam Zhang immediately opened the car door and said, "Go down and talk to Mr. Jiang."

Yu Zizhen nodded and supported Madam Zhang's hand to get out of the carriage.

She has the highest status in the team and always lives in the best place, but the best may not always be what she needs.Like this time, rather than the best accommodation, she needs a secluded courtyard where she can do things secretly.

After he got his wish and moved into the small courtyard in the northeast corner of the inn, Yu Zizhen did not take immediate action.

As usual, she first practiced calligraphy and martial arts with Yao Guang and Yu Heng, and then ate a lot with a great appetite.

It wasn't until everyone had washed up and all the lights in the room dimmed one after another that Yu Zizhen endured the pain and exchanged a one-time skill called "Disguise" with the system.

It's not that she doesn't want to redeem permanent skills, it's just that she is poor.

She was not willing to exchange all the points she had accumulated from completing tasks during this period for a permanent disguise skill.

Fortunately, although the products produced by the system are extremely expensive, they are always worth the money.The one-time disguise skill she exchanged was only valid for six hours, but the system did not cut corners in other aspects.
