More than a day later, Yun Zheng arrived at Beilu Pass.
As soon as Yun Zheng entered Beilu Pass, he saw Ye Zi waiting at the city gate.
Zuo Ren stood beside Ye Zi and accompanied her.
The moment he saw Ye Zi, Yun Zheng couldn't help but be stunned.
Why did Ye Zi come to Beilu Pass?
Who told her that these bird people came to Shuobei to cause trouble?
After thinking for a moment, Yun Zheng dismounted and came to Ye Zi, "Why are you here?"
Ye Zi gave him a reproachful look, "Do you want to keep this secret from me?"
Not only did she know about this, but Shen Luoyan and Madam Shen also knew about it.
When Chen Luoyan first heard about this, he was so furious that he almost rushed to Beilu Pass at full speed to teach these people a lesson.
...
...
Fortunately, they still suppressed Shen Luoyan on the grounds that she was pregnant.
Yun Zheng really wanted to hide it from Ye Zi.
After Ye Zi said this, Yun Zheng smiled embarrassedly and asked, "Who told you?"
As he spoke, Yun Zheng raised his eyes and looked at Zuo Ren.
Zuo Ren looked at Yun Zheng bitterly with an innocent look on his face.
He sent someone to deliver an urgent report to Dingbei, but he didn't know whether Ye Zi had read it!
Logically speaking, he ordered the messenger to personally hand the urgent report to Yun Zheng, so Ye Zi should not have seen it.
"Okay, stop looking at General Zuo! He didn't tell me that."
Ye Zi pursed her lips and said, "I am in charge of so many things after all. If I don't even know about such a big thing, it's either my fault or the fault of the people below me."
Listening to Ye Zi's words, Yun Zheng couldn't help but smile helplessly.
Too!
Although a talent like Chen Bu has been discovered, most of Shuobei's internal affairs are still managed by Ye Zi.
Yun Zheng plans to reuse Chen Bu, but he also needs to gradually delegate power to Chen Bu.
Since he is not in Dingbei, a lot of information will be sent to Ye Zi.
It would be quite difficult for Ye Zi not to get any wind of the matter.
"You're not here to persuade me, are you?"
Yun Zheng asked Ye Zi with a smile.
"What else?"
Ye Zibai glanced at him and tried to persuade him earnestly, "Although these people who came this time are conservative, if there was no one pushing them behind the scenes, it wouldn't have turned out like this! You should know that the people pushing this behind the scenes want you to kill all these people, so that you can become the public enemy of all the nobles in the world..."
This is actually an open conspiracy.
If they don't care about this group of people, they will definitely take advantage of the situation and make the matter bigger and bigger, eventually affecting Yun Zheng's reputation in Shuobei.
But if Yun Zheng killed these people, or gave them a severe beating, he would get a reputation of being disrespectful to the gentry.
If things get out of control, all the nobles in the world will regard Yun Zheng as an enemy, and he will completely stand on the opposite side of these nobles.
No matter how to deal with it, it is a hassle.
Ye Zi believed that with Yun Zheng's intelligence, he would definitely be able to see the interests involved.
But Ye Zi also knew that with Yun Zheng's temper, he would never tolerate these people being so presumptuous.
So, she put down what she was doing and hurried to Beilu Pass.
"It's not a big deal, not as serious as you think."
Yun Zheng smiled indifferently and asked Zuo Ren, "Where are those people?"
Zuo Ren quickly replied: "I was worried that they might cause trouble, so I didn't let them in. They sat in silence outside the pass to protest..."
Sit-in protest?
Yun Zheng's face was filled with black lines.
These bird people are really...
The toad climbs on the frog, he has simple clothes but great fun!
Still protesting?
You're being used as a gun, and you still feel good about yourself?
Do you really take themselves as a dish?
Yun Zheng snorted disdainfully and said calmly: "Let's go, I will go meet them!"
"In my opinion, Your Highness should not show up."
Zuo Ren advised: "Your Highness, just let me handle them as you wish! Although these people have no real talent or knowledge, they represent the noble families of the world after all. If Your Highness does not go, even if you kill them all, people in the world will only scold me. But if Your Highness goes, if they cause any trouble, Your Highness will be cursed..."
"They can't represent the world's noble families!"
Yun Zheng interrupted Zuo Ren, his face full of disdain, "They are just a bunch of pedantic and incompetent people!"
If all the nobles in the world were like this, the Dagan Dynasty would have been destroyed long ago!
If these people are really capable, even if they cannot enter the court, they can at least get a position in the local area.
If he really holds an official position, how could they have so much time to come to Shuobei and criticize him?
Without even an official position, are you worthy of being called a gentry?
To put it bluntly, they are just a bunch of eliminated trash who are madly trying to make their presence felt!
I guess these people are hoping to gain some fame through this so that they can get into officialdom!
Others may spoil them, but I don’t!
Zuo Ren and Ye Zi both wanted to dissuade him, but Yun Zheng insisted on meeting those people in person.
With no other choice, they had to follow Yun Zheng to the outside of the northern foothills pass.
At this moment, outside the Beilu Pass, a group of people led by Gao Shizhen were sitting quietly at the gate of the pass.
It’s just a matter of blocking the gate of the pass.
"Master, what should we do if King Jingbei doesn't come to see us?"
The young scholar next to Gao Shizhen asked in a low voice.
If Yun Zheng didn't see them, would they just sit here forever?
This is not a solution!
"Just be patient."
Gao Shizhen's old face was calm, "We are here to petition. If King Jingbei doesn't see us, it will definitely affect his reputation. I believe he should know the importance of this matter."
Listening to Gao Shizhen's words, the other people around him also nodded in agreement.
"Mr. Gao personally leads the petition. Even the emperor will not neglect it!"
"That's right. With Master Gao here, we don't have to worry at all."
"Even if it's the King of Jingbei, he certainly wouldn't dare to neglect Elder Gao..."
Unlike the man just now, these people were not worried at all and kept flattering him.
Petitions from the public are like advice to the court.
Although there was no law in the Dagan Dynasty that explicitly required the person being petitioned to meet the petitioner, the vast majority of people would meet the petitioner.
However, not everyone can petition.
If three or five people go to petition, it is understandable that no one will pay attention.
The petition team must be led by a prestigious person.
Naturally, there is no need to say much about the reputation of Gao Shizhen, a great scholar of his time.
You should know that there are only three recognized great Confucian scholars in the Dagan Dynasty.
And Gao Shizhen is one of them.
Gao Shizhen was not only a great scholar of his time, but also a moral role model of the Dang Dynasty.
Although Gao Shizhen did not serve as an official, many of his students did.
Of course, if we really talk about fame, Gao Shizhen's fame is definitely not as good as that of the imperial teacher Zhang Huai.
"Okay, stop talking!"
Gao Shizhen stopped everyone and said, "We can just sit here quietly. It depends on King Jingbei whether he will see you or not."
After hearing Gao Shizhen's words, everyone stopped talking and continued to sit quietly...
