After instructing the blacksmiths to make him a suitable weapon based on Gao He's sword, Yun Zheng left the address of his mansion and left with the three of them.
When returning, there was something strange in the look on Shen Luoyan's face when she looked at Yun Zheng.
"You don't seem to be without merits!"
It was rare for Shen Luoyan to smile in front of Yun Zheng.
"I just don't want to disappoint the soldiers who have sacrificed their lives and shed blood for me."
Yun Zheng shook his head slightly, and then said angrily: "I will report this matter to my father at the court meeting tomorrow, and I must ask my father to investigate this matter strictly!"
"Your Highness, you can't do that!" Gao He suddenly spoke.
"Um?"
Yun Zheng turned his head and looked at Gao He, "Why not? You are also a soldier. If your brother's pension was embezzled, would you be indifferent?"
"that is!"
...
...
Shen Luoyan nodded heavily, and said sternly: "Those who embezzle the pensions of fallen soldiers should be killed!"
Gao He shook his head and said seriously: "Your Highness's move will affect the interests of many people! At that time, Your Highness's situation in the court will become even more difficult!"
Um?
Hearing Gao He's words, Yun Zheng's heart couldn't help but move.
Is Gao He thinking about himself?
Is he gradually coming back to his roots?
Quite interesting!
It seems that his BMW was not given away in vain!
"What Guard Gao said makes some sense."
Ye Zi also nodded, "Since ancient times, corrupt officials have been killed without end! If the emperor investigates this, Your Highness will make many enemies in the court."
Yun Zheng thought for a moment and said, "Then let me think about it again!"
Although he said this, Yun Zheng had made up his mind.
This matter must be reported to Emperor Wen.
However, this matter can be told to Emperor Wen in private.
I have just become famous and there are too many people staring at me.
Emperor Wen had too many spies.
Under the current circumstances, the fact that Du Guiyuan was accepted under his command could definitely not be concealed from Emperor Wen's eyes and ears.
Only by confessing voluntarily can Emperor Wen not think that he is building up a powerful faction.
Thinking all the way, Yun Zheng returned home.
As soon as I arrived at the door, I heard people in the mansion say that the third prince had arrived.
Yun Zheng was secretly wondering what this birdman was doing in his house?
Are you trying to harm yourself?
"Then I'll go back first!"
Shen Luoyan didn't want to salute Yun Li and be ridiculed by him, so she just ran away.
Yun Zheng was speechless and took Gao He and Ye Zi into the mansion.
"Third brother, what brings you here?"
As soon as Yun Zheng entered the room, he saw Yun Li sitting there like a big boss, with his own maidservants serving him beside him.
"Sixth brother, I'm here to collect my debt!"
Yun Li raised his eyes slightly and said with a fake smile: "Father has given you so many things today. You should pay back the more than 10,000 taels of silver you owe to my third brother, right?"
Depend on!
Debt collection?
You're probably overthinking it!
I never thought about paying back the money I lent you!
Yun Zheng pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and said, "Third brother, let's not talk about the silver for now. I have something very, very important to tell you!"
Still want the bill?
Isn't this just asking for trouble?
"Don't talk to me about this!"
Yun Li snorted coldly, "What important matter do you have? Pay the money first!"
“It’s really important!”
Yun Zheng didn't mention the matter of paying back the money at all. He approached Yun Li and told him about Du Guiyuan.
Then, he sighed helplessly: "I plan to tell my father about this matter at the court meeting tomorrow, but they all said that I have no foundation and cannot offend people, so I would like to ask you, third brother, to bring it up at the court meeting tomorrow..."
Hearing Yun Zheng's words, Yun Li's face almost turned green.
Damn it!
This bastard!
You know that you have offended people, but don’t I know that?
Moreover, it is possible that many people from his own faction are also involved.
If I report this matter to the court, those people will hate me to death!
I'm afraid that many of the people who have been loyal to me will turn against me!
But Yun Zheng already knows about this!
Even if he doesn't say it, I'm afraid the Sixth Brother will tell his father in private!
If he mentions that he had already told me about this matter but I didn't report it, I'd be surprised if my father doesn't reprimand me!
At this moment, Yun Li wanted to slap himself twice.
Why on earth would you come here to see this loser?
"This matter is of great importance. I will go to the palace to find my father right now!"
Yun Li stood up and left in a hurry without even saying hello.
He has to go to Xu Shifu quickly to discuss countermeasures!
Looking at Yun Li who was running out in panic, a smile flashed across Yun Zheng's face.
Ye Zi held back her laughter, thinking to herself that this bastard was truly insidious.
…
After leaving Yun Zheng's mansion, Yun Li quickly came to Xu Shifu's mansion.
When he told Xu Shifu about this, Xu Shifu suddenly became nervous.
Yun Li's heart skipped a beat when he saw this: "Uncle, you wouldn't..."
He suddenly realized that Xu Shifu was the Minister of Revenue!
The one who embezzled the most is probably his uncle!
“Ahem…”
Xu Shifu cleared his throat twice and changed the subject, "Let's think of a solution now!"
"you……"
Yun Li was so angry that he was breathing heavily. "Father has always been upset about the Battle of Shuobei. Why don't you do something else but touch the pensions of those fallen soldiers? How many heads do you have!"
If this matter is thoroughly investigated, he will definitely be in trouble.
Xu Shifu was immediately displeased when he heard this, and said angrily: "I won't touch the pension money, so where will the money come from to help you buy people's hearts?"
Yun Li was slightly choked and suddenly had nothing to say.
"There's no point in talking about this now."
Xu Shifu softened his attitude. "The emperor attaches great importance to the pensions for fallen soldiers. This matter must be reported to the emperor. This is also your chance to win his favor!"
“That’s… true!”
Yun Li nodded slightly, and then said worriedly: "But if they investigate..."
"Let's check it!"
Xu Shifu smiled indifferently, "Don't worry, it's not a big deal. Just find two scapegoats and they won't find anything here!"
"That's good!"
Yun Li felt relieved, thought for a moment, and asked again: "Can we use this incident to strike a blow to the people in Lao Si's group?"
The fourth brother, Yun Ting, is his biggest competitor.
It would be even better if we could use this incident to strike a blow against the fourth brother's power.
Xu Shifu thought about it, shook his head and said, "Don't move for now. Even if we use this incident to strike at Lao Si's power, it won't have much impact on Lao Si! If we don't move, it's fine. But if we move, Lao Si and his men will be seriously injured!"
"Okay!" Yun Li nodded gently, and then asked: "Should I report the corruption to my father now?"
"Why are you so anxious!" Xu Shifu glared at Yun Li, "Even if this matter needs to be reported, I have to prepare it first!"
He reported the matter without any preparation. Did he think he was not dying fast enough?
"oh."
Yun Li looked at his uncle depressedly, then frowned and said, "I don't know if Bei Huan has started to act yet. I want to cut that coward into pieces right now!"
Speaking of Yun Zheng, Yun Li's eyes suddenly flashed with ferocity.
Xu Shifu smiled confidently, "Don't worry, Bambu is a smart man, he knows what to do! Beihuan should have already taken action! This time, that coward will definitely die!"
"good!"
Yun Li nodded resentfully...
