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

Chapter 52 It’s good to have gaps
This was an important chess piece that would make her as powerful and majestic as the Great Lu family in the future. How could she give him up?

Even if the person who wants to take away this chess piece from her now is the Big Lu family who has contributed a lot to the rise of the Lu family, the Little Lu family does not intend to use this chess piece to turn her into a big Lu family instead of being kept as a chess piece. The chess piece that Da Lu was suppressing was handed over.

Her sharp eyes were like a steel knife scraping bones, looking at the old nanny and the two palace maids inch by inch.

The two palace maids were trembling with fear, but the old nanny remained motionless in front of little Lu.

She is one of Da Lu's confidants. Not only has she been by Da Lu's side since she was a child, but she also stayed with her through all her embarrassing and sad times after she got married.

When she was in her 20s, she resolutely gave up the opportunity to leave the palace to get married, and accompanied the big Lu family, who had just had a miscarriage and was very fragile physically and mentally, from the prince's palace to fight in this huge harem. During this period, she was blocked by the big Lu family. No matter how many open and covert attacks, I don’t know how many little goblins I have killed for the Great Lu family.

In Da Lu's heart, the old nanny, a servant who risked life and death for her, was even more important than her own brother, sister-in-law, and niece.

The old grandma is confident, so she is not afraid of what little Lu will do to her.

As for the Little Lu family, she weighed it for a moment, and she really didn't dare to do anything to the confidants sent to her by the Big Lu family in anger.

She snorted coldly and turned around to go back to her bedroom, scolding the nosy old pious woman over and over again in her heart.

What she didn't know was that the nanny she classified as one of the "old pious women" was also secretly scolding her in her mind as a "stupid thing who becomes arrogant when he succeeds".

Yu Zizhen, who listened to the systematic narration with great interest, silently took note of this tiny gap between the big Lu family and the little Lu family.

She thought to herself that it wasn't just as solid as a piece of cake. Even if there was only a tiny gap as thin as a hair between them now, in the future she would definitely be able to find a way to make the gap between them as wide as the South Pole and the North Pole.

Yu Zizhen, who had a bad idea in his mind, ahem, a good idea, made a plan in his mind while trying hard to swing his two short legs, walked out of the palace gate without stopping, and climbed onto the carriage.

Mr. Jiang, a weak scholar, was not as strong as the two children, Yu Zizhen and Yao Guang. He followed them at a distance, panting and sweating all over.

The young eunuch who sent them out of the palace was in a dilemma. He did not dare to leave Yu Zizhen's side, but he was also afraid that he would make a mistake and Mr. Jiang would go to some place that he should not set foot in.

He had no choice but to accompany Yu Zizhen as he walked forward, while occasionally glancing back at Mr. Jiang, who was out of breath and following very hard.

Fortunately, although Mr. Jiang's physical strength is not very good, his character and perseverance are relatively top-notch. Even though he has been exhausted for half his life, he still chooses to persist and persist.

It wasn't until Yu Zizhen climbed onto the carriage as if sleepwalking that she belatedly remembered that in addition to Yao Guang, there should be another Mr. Jiang who entered the palace with her in her carriage.

She asked Yaoguang, "Where is Mr. Jiang?"

Yao Guang's little finger pointed accurately at the palace entrance, "Over there."

"Uh," seeing Mr. Jiang's embarrassed look of raising his hands to wipe sweat from time to time, Yu Zizhen touched her nose with some guilt, and said, "What about that? Quickly prepare some tea and food for Mr. Jiang."

Mr. Jiang panted and walked to the carriage, and then stepped on the stool with the help of the coachman.

Yu Zizhen, who felt guilty, immediately poured a cup of tea with his own hands and handed it to Mr. Jiang, "Thank you for your hard work, sir. Please drink some tea."

Mr. Jiang waved his hands feebly. He sat there and gasped for several breaths. Then he looked at Yu Zizhen with a headache and said, "Why did the prince leave so fast?" Yu Zizhen touched his nose and said, "I am too absorbed in thinking about things. , and the pace became faster without realizing it.”

In order to apologize, after the carriage had traveled for a while and was completely away from the palace, she decided to share her little discovery with Mr. Jiang.

She said: "I went to see the Queen Mother. The reason why I came back so quickly is because I met the Queen Mother in the Palace of the Queen Mother."

Mr. Jiang frowned slightly, "Is there something wrong?"

Little Lu was both the niece and the daughter-in-law of Big Lu. Her appearance in the Queen Mother's Palace was not something that Yu Zizhen should mention specifically.

As expected, Yu Zizhen nodded slightly, "The Queen Mother is not very happy, and she is not very energetic. I can see that she must not be feeling well. As for the Queen, she has been deliberately trying to please the Queen Mother, giving her support and serving tea. Ah, I hold the Queen Mother in my arms and talk, even when the Queen Mother rewards me with things, the Queen also joins in the fun."

Mr. Jiang frowned even more tightly, "Then what was the Queen Mother's reaction?"

"Well, it feels like although I am very impatient, I have to suppress my true feelings for some reason."

Mr. Jiang:
He had some doubts about Yu Zizhen's judgment. After all, the Queen Mother was the winner of palace battles. With her rank, Mr. Jiang didn't think Yu Zizhen could see through her true feelings.

Seeing this, Yu Zizhen added slowly, "It's exactly the same as the princess behaves every time she faces me."

Mr. Jiang:? ? ?

Mr. Jiang:! ! !

"Prince." He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but when he met Yu Zizhen's exceptionally calm eyes, he couldn't say a word.

He lowered his head and warned himself again that Yu Zizhen was just young and not unscrupulous. He must not fool around when talking to her.

Mr. Jiang took a deep breath and was about to tell Yu Zizhen that she was good at making decisions and agreed to enter the palace to accompany him to study. He heard Yu Zizhen say to him as if nothing was wrong: "By the way, Mr. Jiang, my I will keep the prince's salary and the rewards given to me by the palace for personal use. As for the expenses of the house, sir, please remember to ask Grandpa Sheng for them."

Mr. Jiang:
Thinking of some of the news he had heard before, he couldn't help but begin to suspect that the prince of their family was actually a little Pixiu who could only get in and out.

He nodded helplessly, "I understand."

Yu Sheng is the steward of the palace, and his son is the general manager of the palace's properties in the capital. It is reasonable for them to be responsible for all the expenses of the palace.

Mr. Jiang believed that Yu Sheng and his son would prefer her current attitude of not caring about anything, compared to Yu Zizhen who always relied on her status as master to point fingers, or even made noises about taking over those properties when she grew older.

However, Yu Zizhen could ignore everything, but he, a staff member entrusted with important tasks by the King of Zhenbei, could not.

He came here with a mission, and he had a lot of secret expenses that were not convenient for others, including Yu Zizhen, to know. In order to cover this expense, he must take over the property from Yu Sheng's youngest son.
