I'm not willing to be a cannon fodder for the female supporting role anymore
Chapter 48 Cannon Fodder Princess vs Handsome Young General 03
Lin Huaicong stayed by his mother's bedside all night and did not sleep well. He was summoned by the emperor early in the morning. He didn't know how much the emperor knew about what happened yesterday. He was devastated, but he could only go back to wash up and prepare to enter the palace.
The clothes and other things were all kept by Shen Qin, so he went back to Siqin Pavilion. Who would have thought that when he was halfway there, he saw servants busy moving things. He asked a servant at random and found out that Shen Qin had asked people to move all the things in Siqin Pavilion to the main courtyard where the princess used to live.
When Lin Huacong heard this, he was furious. A big thing happened in the Lin Mansion yesterday, and his mother was seriously ill. It was inconvenient to take care of Shen Qin because she was pregnant, but he didn't know what the emperor would decide on his divorce from the princess. She was so anxious to move to the main courtyard that it might just add fuel to the fire.
"Move everything back to Siqin Pavilion. From now on, no one is allowed to live in the main courtyard without my permission!"
He almost yelled, and the servants were all stunned. Lin Huaiang had always been a refined and elegant gentleman. Even though he was always unfriendly to the princess, he would never scold her so loudly.
"Master, but we have almost moved there."
A clever boy next to the butler plucked up the courage to reply.
"Don't you understand? If you can't even understand this, go find a human trafficker tomorrow. My Lin family can't afford servants who can't understand."
"Yes, yes, we will bring it back right away."
Lin Huaicong didn't know for a moment whether he should go to Siqin Pavilion to change his clothes or to the main courtyard. After thinking about it, he went to the street angrily, found a familiar clothing store, changed into decent clothes, and rushed to the palace at full speed.
Along the way, thinking back to what happened yesterday, Lin Huaicong imagined a lot of things and made preparations for the worst.
What he didn't expect was that Yueying gave him a bad hat. All the crises that he thought might happen when he was summoned did not happen. He was just comforted by the emperor's compassionate gaze and then let go.
He didn't even know how he left the palace. When he came to his senses, he was already back at the gate of the Lin Residence. His mind kept thinking about what the princess had said yesterday, accusing him of wrongly accusing her.
The small world did not portray Lin Huacong as such a bad person, and Yueying was too lazy to spend too much time thinking about revenge, so she chose to just let them live happily ever after.
After all, she had more important things to do in her heart. As a single princess who opened a princess mansion, her life was very free. So she found the miracle doctor in this world and spent a lot of energy to become his apprentice.
Two years have passed since this study. In fact, Yueying has studied in several worlds and her spiritual consciousness has been opened. Her medical skills have long surpassed the small world. Only by following the miracle doctor can she have the identity of a minor miracle doctor, which will facilitate her future actions.
In the past few years, she didn't care about the open and secret struggles between her brother, the crown prince, and the younger brother who was competing for the throne. Yueying followed the principle that she would be present in any occasion where the female cannon fodder appeared, but she would not do anything that the female cannon fodder did.
She and the miracle doctor treat patients in pharmacies around the capital. People all say that a good teacher produces good students. Now Ji Yueying has earned the reputation of a little miracle doctor, but no one knows who this little miracle doctor who wears a veil every day is.
On this day, because of the victory in the frontier, Yueying had to return to the capital to prepare for the celebration banquet in the palace the day after tomorrow, so she did not follow her master to see the doctor. After packing up and preparing to go out, she just opened the door of the pharmacy, and a pillar-shaped object hit Yueying unexpectedly. Feeling that she was injured internally, Yueying thought that she should learn some kung fu, and pushed the person on her body away with all her strength.
Yueying dragged the man into the house. There was a strong smell of blood and his body was covered with knife wounds. Although he was only left with his underwear, it looked like good material. His face was dirty, but his bone structure showed that he was a handsome man.
Hesitating whether to save this person or not? If he saved him, he was afraid of getting into trouble. After all, in two years, the original body would be gone, and Yueying really didn't want to cause trouble for herself.
There was a struggle between conscience and desire. Looking at the injuries of this paper man, he might not survive until the evening when his master comes back to save him. Doctors are kind-hearted, doctors are kind-hearted. I hope he is not an important person.
Yueying waved Yingyi, wiped the man's body briefly, applied medicine and bandaged him, then went to boil medicine for him. By the time she finished everything, it was already afternoon.
After leaving a note for her master, Yueying hurried back to Beijing.
"Princess, which hairpin are you wearing today?"
Doukou held up a few hairpins and gestured, letting Yueying choose in the bronze mirror.
"This is it. It's more generous, but not so ostentatious."
She chose a jade hairpin and only put a blood-red gem on her hair.
"Princess, yesterday there was a rumor outside that General Yue had returned in triumph, but he encountered bandits on the way. I'm afraid the atmosphere of this celebration banquet is not very good."
Doukou passed on the news she had heard from the street to Yueying.
Yueying paused for a moment. Could it be that he had saved some main character? Three black lines suddenly appeared on his head.
Doukou didn't know why the princess suddenly stopped talking and looked very angry, so she didn't dare to say anything more.
The palace hall should have been a place for the emperor and his ministers to drink and chat happily in a joyful celebration, but the emperor's face looked a little grim. He heard that the vanguard army had encountered banditry on the mountain road, and there were heavy casualties. The life and death of the left vanguard general was unknown.
It has been a month since I last paid my respects to the emperor in the palace. Logically, Yueying should have said something nice to please her old father, the emperor. However, facing such a major military and national event, she thought better of it.
Yueying has been particularly well-behaved in recent years. She would occasionally go to the palace to please the emperor and the empress dowager, take the rewards, and then run away happily. In any case, she would never get involved in politics.
If she had known this would happen, she should have sent a message a few days earlier saying that she could not come. As a princess sitting on a high seat, seeing the people below being even more cautious and hypocritical than usual, she meant that she neither wanted to act here nor watch everyone act here.
Suddenly, a servant walked around and approached the eunuch in charge beside the emperor. After the eunuch heard what was said, he whispered a few words to the emperor.
"Prince Xuanyu and his second son are here to see the emperor."
Prince Yu? The second son? The missing young general seemed to be Prince Yu's second son. So he was found? But coming here now was not sure whether it was a good idea or not. They were fighting against the bandits, and only one of the main generals escaped. He should have returned secretly anyway.
Many people present may have had this idea. After all, among the soldiers who did not die on the battlefield, thousands of them were killed or injured on their way back, and the commander was missing for several days.
"This guilty minister and his unfilial son come to pay homage to our emperor. Long live the emperor."
Prince Yu and his youngest son knelt in the center of the hall. After they bowed down, for a long time they did not hear the old emperor shouting to them to stand up.
"Xiaoying, go and help me help Prince Yu up. We are all family, there is no need to be so polite."
After a few breaths of silence, Yueying heard her father calling her name. Although she didn't understand what the old man was doing, she still walked down the stairs obediently.
It is impossible to really help them. The so-called helping them up means going up to them and asking them to stand up.
"Prince Yu, Young General, please stand up quickly."
Yueying made a gesture to help them up, but the kneeling father and son did not appreciate it.
"His Majesty……"
"Your Highness is being too hasty. If you have anything to say, wait until the banquet is over."
Yueying lowered her voice to stop Prince Yu from speaking, then turned to look at the young general. Their eyes met and he was also looking at her.
Why is it that his eyes are filled with deep affection? No, isn't this the person he saved from his master two days ago? The second son of Prince Yu...isn't this the male protagonist? Why does everyone call him the little general? Shouldn't he be the prince of Prince Yu's mansion?
I feel dizzy, because I have been living too carefree in the past two years, I have forgotten about the hero and heroine, and many things are a bit confusing.
Yueying's old face turned red when she was stared at. She lowered her head slightly, turned around and ordered someone to prepare a seat for Prince Yu, then walked lightly back to her seat.
Looking at this scene, everyone present had their own thoughts, especially the princes who noticed that the emperor's mood suddenly improved. They couldn't help but look at the princess and then at Prince Yu's youngest son Rong Sheng'an.
"Xiao P, Xiao P, come out, why didn't you come out to remind me that it was the male protagonist when you rescued him that day?"
"Did I steal the heroine's chance to save the hero?"
"I clearly didn't write this part. When did the hero get nearly killed by the bandits?"
"Little P, don't play dead. If you play dead, we will perish together, my friend."
"Okay, okay, in the original story, the princess didn't become a miraculous doctor, and she didn't use her identity to save so many disaster victims, so there were no bandits in the original story."
Little P was finally threatened and choked back.
"Wait, so you mean the bandits are here because I saved them?"
Yueying seemed to have grasped the point.
"The court has been at war for the past two years, so there is no manpower to resettle the victims of the disaster the year before last. In the original plot, large areas of plague were directly rounded up and burned to death and buried. After you came, you suppressed the local officials with your status as a princess and saved tens of thousands of victims. However, the rescued victims could not be resettled, so some of them set up camps in the mountains and became bandits."
"Bah, they are just peasants. I don't believe they dare to fight against the army."
"Of course they were used. Think about it, how did they know when the vanguard troops would return to Beijing?"
"Xiao P, now that you've said that, why can't you just tell me who did it? I don't think you have the system intelligence that other time travelers have."
Yueying didn't know whether this system was intentional or really a turtle. After talking for a long time, it seemed that there was information but it didn't give accurate information.
"When you accumulate more points and upgrade me, I can become intelligent."
Tsk, you’re trying to cheat me out of my points again. No way!
"Oh, you still don't know after all this time. By the way, I'm not saying anything, but my master and I often practice medicine outside, so why haven't we ever encountered bandits?"
"Those disaster victims didn't rob houses. They used to rob caravans occasionally to make a living."
"What if the old emperor sends troops to wipe them out? I can't say that they are actually the victims of the disaster in the past two years."
Yueying felt that she couldn't save those people, and they were wiped out by the bandit suppression again.
"The system suggests that the host volunteer to subdue the bandits himself."
……
"Then why is the Prince of Prince Yu not the male lead?"
After a moment of silence, Yueying asked again.
"In the plot, Rong Shengping should have been ordered to control the plague two years ago..."
Little P reminded helplessly.
"So he should have died of the plague, but he's still alive and well. So the hero is not the crown prince now..."
I thought I had hidden myself among the people, doing little things to benefit ordinary people, having nothing to do with the characters in the main storyline, and then I could just wait to be offline. Unexpectedly, this would affect the protagonist, not only changing his identity, but also affecting his career.
Yueying felt a little worried and frowned. Suddenly, she saw the prince sitting diagonally in the seat out of the corner of her eye.
"Forget it. I've done what I have done. Although I cannot tell the old emperor about the bandits, I can hint at it to the prince. Letting him go will still be a great achievement."
Yueying relaxed her brows, peeled a lychee, and felt much happier. However, she never expected that when she, as a little princess, was still worrying about the country and the people, her old man was actually considering the love affair between his own princess and the youngest son of Prince Yu.
When the old emperor saw the affection in the eyes of the young man from the Rong family, he was very satisfied, but he was indeed very dissatisfied with Prince Yu. The reason was that before the princess married the Lin family, he had his eyes on Rong Sheng'an as a prince consort. As a result, when he mentioned it indirectly to Prince Yu, he was severely blocked.
The princess fell in love with Lin Huaicong at that time, so the old emperor gave up. Now that the princess has been divorced for two years, he is still eyeing the Rong family. After all, the princess he likes must be paired with the best man.
"Brother, please stay."
After the banquet, Yueying stopped the prince.
"What's wrong, Xiaoying?"
"Royal brother, a large number of flood victims displaced from their homes emerged in the suburbs of Beijing two years ago. At that time, Ying'er and Master had some contact with the epidemic. I remember that there were more than 10,000 victims. I wonder if they were settled down later."
Yueying thought about her words and pretended to ask casually.
"Why did you suddenly ask this, Imperial Sister?"
The prince raised his eyebrows. He wondered why his little sister, the emperor's younger sister, had always been elusive and never involved in politics, suddenly brought up this matter today.
"It's just that a few days ago I met a patient that I treated at that time. He didn't return to his hometown, so I was a little curious."
Yueying found a reasonable excuse for herself.
“Oh, disaster victims are usually relocated back to their hometowns, but if the disaster area is serious, they may be relocated.”
Although the prince did not deal directly with the incident at that time, he still had some general understanding of the situation.
"Then according to my understanding, brother, is it true that there are generally not a large number of disaster victims who have not been resettled?"
"Does your sister suspect that the bandits this time are disaster victims who have not been resettled?"
After all, he had been the crown prince for many years, and he quickly realized what Yueying really wanted to ask.
"Brother, I really don't know what the post-disaster resettlement situation is like, so I'm curious."
Yueying tried to save face by pretending that she really didn't care.
"I can help the young general to investigate. If they are really disaster victims, then this is more than just a bandit problem. But is your sister planning to return to you?"
