Chapter 211: Countermeasures
The eldest princess is a person with a conscience, and she can't do anything to sacrifice hundreds of people from other families for herself.
She is controlled by others, she can't refuse the marriage arranged by the queen, Yu Zizhen and the eldest prince are not suitable, and they can't justifiably interfere in her marriage.
Although the emperor's identity is appropriate, the Empress Xiao Lu has now added him to the death list alongside the Da Lu clan, and Xiao Lu will definitely not listen to what he says.
Helpless, Yu Zizhen could only find another way to think of other ways for her.
She asked Celestia, "If you could only choose one of the honorable princess status and the power to control your own life without implicating anyone else, what would you choose?" ”
Princess Celestia was stunned for a moment, then said in a very soft but also very firm voice, "I choose the latter." ”
Yu Zizhen nodded, "Then I know what to do." ”
She handed the eldest princess a small pill, "Eat it, I can help you pretend to be sick." ”
Princess Celestia was stunned, "Pretending to be sick. Can it be useful? ”
Yu Zizhen was full of confidence, "It depends on what kind of illness it is, if it is a disease that can be passed on, you will definitely be sent out of the palace to recuperate, and the marriage will naturally be put on hold." ”
The eldest princess was not at ease, she asked Yu Zizhen, "What if the imperial doctor sees out?" ”
She needs to determine whether Yu Zizhen will be implicated in the process of helping her. After all, Yu Zizhen offered to come to see her, and whispered to her after the grandmother sent by the Xiao Lu clan stopped her to no avail.
"That won't be." Yu Zizhen actually used a one-time skill for the eldest princess that she redeemed from the system, this skill can make the eldest princess "sick" after ten days, and the symptoms she showed after the "onset" are exactly the same as the smallpox that everyone heard about in this era.
The skills in the pill form were not the same as the real pills, and no matter how skilled the imperial doctors were, it was impossible for them to see anything suspicious from the pulse of the eldest princess.
The eldest princess asked again, "What if the queen mother lets me marry in the name of Chongxi."
Yu Zizhen motioned to her not to be nervous, "Then I'll help you think of other ways." ”
It's a big deal that she will let the eldest princess die, and aside from her princess status, she can still live freely and happily.
Although Yu Zizhen's words were vague, out of blind trust in Yu Zizhen, the eldest princess did not continue to ask what the "other methods" in her mouth were.
Yu Zizhen also knew that she should not stay for a long time, and she said to the eldest princess: "If someone asks you and I told you about you, you will say that I asked you if you were willing to marry yourself." You said yes, and I asked you again if you would come to school. You can look at the rest yourself. ”
The eldest princess was stunned for a moment, but she quickly reacted, if Yu Zizhen didn't want to say that these things were not suitable for the old grandmother to be present and listen, then the old lady would not be spended by others who couldn't help but say.
And since they whispered, then Xiao Lu would definitely not believe that they just said something innocuous about it.
Lies are meant to be half true and false in order to be more likely to be trusted, and this is naturally understood by people like the eldest princess who live in the deep palace all year round.
After Yu Zizhen left, Xiao Lu quickly sent the old lady from before to pass her on.
The eldest princess endured the pain in her knees and walked to Xiao Lu's bedroom.
As Yu Zizhen expected, Xiao Lu really interrogated the eldest princess about the chat between her and Yu Zizhen.
The eldest princess dealt with it carefully, and according to Yu Zizhen's advice, she replied to Xiao Lu with half of the truth and falsehood.
Xiao Lu didn't ask anything big about it, and he was confident that the eldest princess couldn't turn over the palm of her hand, so he put his mind at ease and stabbed the eldest princess with a strange yin and yang anger, "What, I thought he would say that he was willing to marry you." It seems that he is not as good to you as you think. ”
This level of yin and yang weirdness has long been used to the eldest princess, she knelt on the ground with a respectful face, "It's that the son is not worthy of the prince of Zhenbei." ”
What the eldest princess said was calm and completely from the heart, but it made her angry in Xiao Lu's ears.
She threw a teacup to Celestia's lap, "Nothing to do!" I can't even hook a stinky boy who doesn't have any hair, what's the use of raising you in this palace? ”
The eldest princess knelt on the ground and let her scold without saying a word, but what she thought in her heart was, you have been jumping up and down for so many years, haven't you also failed to hook my mascot-like father?
What about your Lu clan's power leaning towards the government and the opposition? What about your little Lu clan controlling the harem? You're not going to be left out yet.
Before knowing Yu Zizhen, the eldest princess didn't dare to have such thoughts, but now she is very different from her before, even if she wants to protect herself, she still has to maintain her supple image on the face, but in private, she also has the courage to complain about Xiao Lu in her heart.
On the seventh day of the eldest princess's marriage, Yang Shixian's grandfather Yang Zhengde was intercepted by a group of dead soldiers who came out of nowhere on the way to the court in the morning.
The opponent has a large number of people, and all of them are strong in martial arts, and the guards and long-term followers accompanying Yang Zhengde can't resist it at all, and there are already casualties in just one face.
Fortunately, Yu Zizhen got the news through the small milk sound system in advance, and the next moment when the group of dead soldiers moved, the people sent by Yu Zizhen also followed.
Although their single combat ability is similar to those dead soldiers, they are better in numbers, and they can basically do two teams to fight those dead soldiers.
The dead soldiers never dreamed that so many tricky people would suddenly appear in the way of their mission, and they desperately tried to break through to the front of the carriage that Yang Zhengde was riding while dedicating their men to resist the continuous attacks of Yu Zizhen's subordinates.
However, Yang Zhengde's guards and long-term followers are not vegetarians, they are desperate to get injured and die themselves, and they also want to isolate those dead soldiers who tried to poison Yang Zhengde from a safe distance.
With such an internal and external attack, most of the dead soldiers who wanted to kill Yang Zhengde were quickly eliminated.
There are only a few left, and the leader of Yang Zhengde's guards has people tied up and taken away, and he has to go back to interrogate where these people came from.
Yu Zizhen's subordinates did not leave immediately because the crisis was temporarily resolved, and Yang Zhengde's head of the guard thanked them and asked them about their identities, "Thank you for your help." I wonder if you would like to tell me your origin and name? ”
"It doesn't matter where we come from." The young general who led the team bowed his hand slightly towards Yang Zhengde's head of the guard, "The important thing is that you had better escort Lord Yang back to the house as soon as possible." ”
When Yang Zhengde heard this, he ignored the obstruction of the entourage and walked directly out of the carriage.
He bowed to Yu Zizhen's group of subordinates, "Old man Yang Zhengde, thank you for coming to the rescue." ”
Everyone hurried to return the salute.
