As soon as Yun Li and his companions left, Yun Zheng sent someone to take over the jade shop with the receipt written by Yun Li.

If he went too late, he was afraid that Yun Li would ask someone to clear out the jade shop.

"You are crazy!"

"Your Majesty forbad you to tell anyone about that, but you still told them?"

"Are you willing to sacrifice your life for a jade shop?"

After learning what Yun Zheng and Yun Li talked about, Ye Zi suddenly became furious and started to rant at Yun Zheng.

For a moment, she wanted to pry open Yun Zheng's head to see what was going on inside his mind.

"Be patient!"

Yun Zheng looked at Ye Zi with a smile on his face, "You underestimate my father too much!"

Um?

...

...

Ye Zi paused for a moment, and asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"

"He's probably testing me!"

Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled: "If I don't tell the third brother what I talked about with him, he will doubt that I am not sincere in reconciling with the third brother..."

This is a very simple truth.

He was different from other princes, he had no foundation.

Finally, Yun Li said he would protect me. If I still don’t treat Yun Li better, can it still be called reconciliation?

He even suspected that Emperor Wen actually wanted him to tell Yun Li these words and use him to criticize Yun Li.

In fact, there was no secret at all about what he talked about with Emperor Wen, except that Emperor Wen suspected that Yun Li was pretending to reconcile with him.

Everyone knew that Emperor Wen did not want the brothers to fight each other for the position of crown prince.

As for testing the thoughts of his brothers, even a fool would know that!

If he didn't tell them, would Yun Li and the others not know that Emperor Wen wanted to test them?

If Emperor Wen really wanted to tell him a secret, he should have told him how to test his brothers instead of just mentioning that he wanted to test them.

Ye Zi thought silently for a while. Although she felt that what Yun Zheng said made some sense, she was still a little worried.

"What if you misunderstand His Majesty's intention?"

Ye Zi asked worriedly.

Yun Zheng raised his lips and asked, "Do you think the third brother will tell this to others?"

Ye Zi thought about it, shook her head and said, "He probably won't tell me!"

Yun Zheng disobeyed the imperial order and told Yun Li those things.

If Yun Li turned around and sold out Yun Zheng, wouldn't that be telling His Majesty that he and Yun Zheng were only pretending to reconcile?

No matter how stupid Yun Li is, he wouldn't be this stupid.

"Then what should I worry about?"

Yun Zheng raised the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "However, I will let Gao He tell my father's people about what happened today."

Um?

Ye Zi's face changed, and she asked in astonishment: "Are you going to tell others about it?"

Yun Zheng nodded slightly and said with a smile: "I will definitely tell you."

After all, Gao He was someone placed by his father by his side.

From time to time, I have to report something to my father.

Moreover, Yuan Gui also knew about his secret conversation with Yun Li.

Who can guarantee that that idiot Yuan Gui won’t tell anyone?

If Yuan Gui told this to others and Gao He did not report it to his father, his life would be in danger.

"I'm still worried that you might misunderstand His Majesty's intentions."

Ye Zi frowned and said, "Please think about this carefully! If you win the bet, it doesn't matter, but if you lose, the emperor will blame you, and you won't be able to bear it!"

"fool!"

Yun Zheng raised his hand and tapped Ye Zi on the head. "Gao He only needs to tell Father that I had a secret conversation with the Third Brother. As for what I talked about in secret with the Third Brother, is it possible for him to know?"

Faced with Yun Zheng's sudden intimate behavior, Ye Zi's face suddenly blushed.

Ye Zi glared at Yun Zheng in embarrassment and annoyance, then buried her head in thought again.

Yes!

Since it was a secret talk, how could Gao He know what they talked about?

If Yun Zheng misunderstood Emperor Wen's intention, then what he and Yun Li talked about is not up to them both to decide, right?

If he did not misunderstand Emperor Wen's intention, he only needed to let Emperor Wen know that he had a secret conversation with Yun Li, and Emperor Wen would imagine the rest himself.

It can also make Emperor Wen mistakenly believe that Gao He is still working for him with peace of mind!

high!

It’s really high!

Calculate every step!

He has considered every aspect!

Ye Zi admired him deeply and looked at Yun Zheng with a complicated expression, "I am finding you more and more difficult to understand."

Yun Zheng smiled and said, "Is there anything you don't understand? I'll tell you."

"You are so calculating!"

Ye Zi sighed softly, "Take the matter of Yuan Gui for example, you have already calculated everything in advance! The development of things is going exactly as you expected!"

"You are wrong."

Yun Zheng shook his head and smiled: "It's not that things developed as I expected, but I deliberately guided things to develop in the direction I expected..."

In fact, there is no clever calculation here.

He was originally guiding Yun Li to fight Yuan Gui.

Yun Li beat Yuan Gui, but Ye Zi stood up and successfully pleaded for Yuan Gui. Yuan Gui would definitely be more willing to believe Ye Zi!

Does he still believe Yun Li who beat him up?

The only guess is that Yuan Gui wants to give Ye Zi some benefits.

However, it is normal to give some benefits when asking someone to do something for you.

So, this matter is actually not as mysterious as Ye Zi thought.

Anyone who can seize the initiative can do it!

After hearing Yun Zheng's words, Ye Zi was speechless.

Is it really as easy as Yun Zheng said?

"Honestly, I'm a little shocked by you."

Ye Zi let out a long breath, "I always thought I was very smart, but compared to you, I suddenly feel that I am stupid..."

Yun Zheng was surprised and joked, "I'll be proud if you say that."

"I'm not afraid of your pride since you've been able to endure for so many years." Ye Zi shook her head gently, "What I'm most afraid of now is that the Shen family and we will become tools for you to use."

Ye Zi had to worry about this.

Yun Zheng is too cunning and insidious!

No matter how conspiracies and tricks they play against Yun Zheng, they will never be able to defeat him.

"Okay! I admit that you are indeed stupid!"

Yun Zheng rolled his eyes at her and said, "Instead of thinking about these things, you might as well consider my mother-in-law's advice! Although I am not a gentleman, I will never cheat my woman!"

After saying that, Yun Zheng stood up and walked out.

She has such a rich imagination!

Are you still afraid that you will take advantage of the Shen family?

She has been getting along with me for a long time.

I gave her all my trust.

In the end, she no longer trusts herself?

This is a little hurtful!

I just want to be the sixth one, I don’t want to ignore any of my relatives!

Oh, let her think about it slowly!

She's a smart person and should be able to figure it out.

Looking at Yun Zheng's somewhat bored back, Ye Zi couldn't help but worry secretly.

Was he angry because I didn't trust him?

Am I really overthinking it?

Would he feel stupid?

Will he gradually distance himself from me in the future?

As she was thinking about it, Ye Zi suddenly felt a chill.

"Ye Zi, what are you thinking about!"

Ye Zi murmured to herself, "Why do you care so much about his thoughts? Could it be..."

As he was speaking, Ye Zi shuddered again and shook his head vigorously to dispel the distracting thoughts in his mind.

…

At night, in the palace.

After receiving Gao He's report, the shadow guard immediately reported it to Emperor Wen.

"Okay, I got it!"

Emperor Wen waved his hand, signaling the shadow guards to retreat, with a smile on his face.

It seems that the sixth brother probably told the third brother what I said to him.

This bastard really ignored my words!

He really trusts the third brother!

What a forgetful person! Aren’t you afraid that the third brother will become the crown prince and then destroy your bridges?

Well, it seems that I can proceed to the next step of my plan.

Third brother, third brother, please don’t let me and sixth brother down!

After thinking for a while, Emperor Wen called Mu Shun again...
