A corrupt scholar like Gao Shizhen doesn't have many psychological defenses.
Yun Zheng easily broke down Gao Shizhen's psychological defenses.
"What do you want to do?"
Gao Shizhen burst into tears and asked Yun Zheng with a sad and angry look on his face.
Yun Zheng didn't beat around the bush with Gao Shizhen and asked directly, "Who asked you to come to Shuobei to petition?"
Gao Shizhen instantly understood Yun Zheng's meaning and said angrily, "Do you think I was ordered by someone?"
"Isn't it?"
Yun Zheng raised his eyebrows and snorted, "I have no grudge against you. If no one ordered you to do this, why would you come all the way to Shuobei to disgust me and Zi'er? Are you bored? Or do you want to gain fame at this time?"
Yun Zheng was not polite at all and did not give any face to Gao Shizhen, the great scholar.
Yun Zheng didn't believe in any of that nonsense about petitioning on behalf of the people of the world.
...
...
People all over the world only think about how to have enough food to eat. Who the hell has the time to care about these things?
As for maintaining the reputation of the royal family, that is even more nonsense.
Emperor Wen has already issued the imperial edict, so why does Gao Shizhen need to defend the royal family's reputation?
If Gao Shizhen really wanted to maintain the reputation of the royal family, he should not have staged this petition drama.
"I was not ordered around by anyone!"
Gao Shizhen panted and said, "I can honestly say that I am wholeheartedly upholding the etiquette of my great country and thinking about the prince. I want the prince to become a hero respected by everyone. I don't want the matter of taking my wife's sister-in-law as my wife to become a stain on the prince..."
Gao Shizhen spoke in a decisive tone, as if he had a clear conscience.
Yun Zheng and the two girls were speechless.
Judging from what Gao Shizhen said, he really has good intentions?
Isn't this bullshit?
Yun Zheng and Gao Shizhen have nothing in common.
Why should Gao Shizhen do good for Yun Zheng?
If Gao Shizhen had the leisure time, he might as well pay attention to the refugees in the south.
Yun Zheng pondered for a moment and asked again: "Then why did you suddenly think of going to Shuobei to petition? There must be a reason for this, right? Could it be that you just came up with it on a whim and brought people to Shuobei to petition?"
Yun Zheng didn't believe that there was no one behind this matter.
Under Yun Zheng's questioning, Gao Shizhen finally told the whole story.
In fact, Gao Shizhen did not bring people to petition on a whim.
It all started when Gao Shizhen was having dinner at a restaurant and heard a few people at the next table talking about Yun Zheng and Ye Zi.
When talking about Yun Zheng and Ye Zi, those people were both indignant and regretful.
What is infuriating is that Yun Zheng, a prince, actually did such a shameful thing as taking his wife's sister-in-law as his concubine. This was really a disgrace to the royal family, disregarded etiquette and laws, and set a bad example for the people of the world.
It is a pity that a hero like Yun Zheng, who should have been remembered forever, became a stain on his life because of this incident. It is such a pity.
Some people also said that it was Ye Zi who seduced Yun Zheng and Yun Zheng was just deceived for a moment. If someone could enlighten Yun Zheng and make him come to his senses, Yun Zheng would still be a great hero respected by everyone in later history books.
And the person who enlightens Yun Zheng will surely be remembered forever.
It was because of listening to the discussion of these people that Gao Shizhen came up with the idea of coming to Shuobei to petition.
After hearing Gao Shizhen's words, the three of them almost laughed out of anger.
You still say that no one is giving orders?
It is obvious that Gao Shizhen was tricked by those people!
Those people must have said these things in front of Gao Shizhen on purpose, just waiting for Gao Shizhen to jump into the trap!
As a result, this old guy not only jumped into the pit without hesitation, but he still doesn't know that he was cheated. He is still feeling good about himself and has the nerve to say that he is doing it for Yun Zheng's good?
This old guy must have read so much that his brain has become stupid!
No wonder this old guy didn't serve as an official in the court.
With his brain, he can only bring disaster to the people as an official.
"Do you know those people?"
Yun Zheng asked.
“I don’t know him.”
Gao Shizhen answered without hesitation.
"You don't even know their names?"
Ye Zi asked unwillingly.
Gao Shizhen shook his head gently, "From beginning to end, we didn't say a word..."
After listening to Gao Shizhen's words, the three were even more speechless.
This old guy jumped into the pit dug by others without even saying a word to anyone.
It's really easy to trick this old guy!
"Forget it. I won't embarrass you for now."
Yun Zheng shook his head gently, looking at Gao Shizhen speechlessly, "Read less in the future and learn more about the right and wrong of the world! You should get well soon, because I will give you an important task when I return!"
“Heavy…important task?”
Gao Shizhen looked at Yun Zheng blankly.
Although he was pedantic, he was not stupid enough to think that Yun Zheng would really put aside their past grudges and entrust him with an important task.
If Yun Zheng could put aside his past grudges, he would not have killed several scholars in front of him.
He now understood that Yun Zheng was not someone who was easy to deal with.
"It is indeed an important task! And it is a great opportunity to leave your name in history!"
Yun Zheng nodded and said seriously: "There are many people who migrated from Beihuan in Shuobei. These barbarians are unwilling to be educated and do not know etiquette. I have decided to send you to help me and Da Gan educate these barbarians!"
It’s better not to keep people like Gao Shizhen in Dagan to harm others.
Let’s go to Beihuan!
If Gao Shizhen could really educate those people in Beihuan, he would definitely run to Gao Shizhen and apologize in the future.
Hearing Yun Zheng's words, Gao Shizhen was stunned and speechless for a long time.
Ye Zi and Miao Yin looked at Yun Zheng with reproach at the same time, thinking that this guy was really making the best use of his talents.
But then again, letting Gao Shizhen educate those people in Beihuan is actually a good idea.
If Gao Shizhen had really educated those people, then he would be considered a great talent of the time.
"Don't think about dying."
Yun Zheng raised his eyes to look at Gao Shizhen who was lying there stupidly, "If you die, I will definitely prove that your Gao family is guilty of treason and will make your Gao family despised by future generations!"
After saying that, Yun Zheng was too lazy to talk nonsense with Gao Shizhen and left with Ye Zi and Miaoyin.
It is now confirmed that there was indeed someone behind the scenes pushing Gao Shizhen to lead others in the petition.
Unfortunately, Gao Shizhen didn't even know the names of those people, so it was very difficult for them to find out who was the mastermind behind the incident.
This is just like the previous assassination, it is also an unsolved case.
As soon as the three of them left the courtyard where Gao Shizhen was accommodated, Zuo Ren came hurriedly with someone.
Ye Zi recognized at a glance that this person was one of the secret agents sent by Yun Zheng to the interior of the country.
After a simple greeting, the man reported their recent situation to Yun Zheng.
Two of them have already infiltrated the Black Crow organization.
However, the Black Crow's hierarchy was very strict, and their people had just infiltrated and their status was too low, so they were unable to obtain any useful information from the Black Crow.
In addition, according to Yun Zheng's request, the rest of their people formed a horse caravan inside the pass.
The caravans traveled everywhere, helping people transport goods and gathering information.
At the same time, they are also actively expanding intelligence channels and gradually improving Yun Zheng's intelligence network.
After saying this, the man reported with a grim expression: "Your Highness, there is one more thing. Tens of thousands of displaced disaster victims in the south have been bewitched and are heading to the north. I am afraid that more disaster victims will migrate here later..."
