Gao Qingyun shook her head.
"You guys are just so clueless."
Haven't you heard the saying, "A bad pen is worse than a good memory"?
"I made you copy the text for your own good!"
Gao Qingyun had been thinking about saying this for a long time.
Now we've finally seized the opportunity.
He put his hands on his hips and ordered the eunuchs to pick up the iron ball from the ground.
Then he said smugly, "You all should thank your teacher!"
This is infuriating.
Although the students were from the Ming Dynasty, they always respected their teachers and especially respected Gao Qingyun.
But at this moment, he suddenly showed an angry expression.
"Sir, how can you say that!"
"You're asking us to copy books, how does that make it seem like you're doing us a favor!"
Gao Qingyun smiled and said, "Oh? Who said that?"
"Anyone who objects will have to copy the text again."
After these words were spoken, no one dared to speak again.
Even Zhang Xianzhong shut his mouth and pretended to be dead.
Although he usually dared to speak recklessly, he didn't want to copy the book a few more times at this moment.
Gao Qingyun then laughed loudly, "Since no one objects, let's do it this way."
Zhu Youjian breathed a sigh of relief as he watched the students walk away dejectedly.
"Luckily, I resisted the urge to become an apprentice before, otherwise there would be one more person like me copying books now, wouldn't there be one more of me?"
Just as Zhu Youjian was feeling relieved, Gao Qingyun also remembered him.
"Xiao Zhu, is there something you need from me at this hour?"
Zhu Youjian nodded quickly: "Haha, Master Gao, you even guessed that."
He used the same method as before, portraying Wei Zhongxian as an old scoundrel from Dahe Village, thus changing the story.
Gao Qingyun immediately understood.
"Heh, looks like this old man is going to make a move on you."
"It's pretty much what we were saying a few days ago."
"I suspect he did it on purpose, to buy time so he could make full preparations!"
Zhu Youjian rubbed his hands together excitedly.
He had finally gained the upper hand and hadn't been fooled by Wei Zhongxian, so he was naturally happy for a while.
"Master Gao, we really think alike!"
"That's what I think too!"
"I plan to get Brother Li... uh, I mean Brother Li from the village, back from the mountains as soon as possible."
"With him around, that old bastard can't pull any tricks."
Upon hearing this, Gao Qingyun revealed a strange smile.
"Xiao Zhu, if that's what you think, then you've miscalculated."
Where Zhu Youjian couldn't see, a screen of light appeared before Gao Qingyun's eyes, displaying the latest weather forecast.
Gao Qingyun glanced at the weather forecast and shook his head, saying:
“It’s going to snow heavily here in the next few days.”
"That kid surnamed Li, I'm afraid he won't be able to get back in time."
Zhu Youjian's expression changed: "Is it really going to snow in a few days?"
He didn't care about what Gao Qingyun said about Li Ruolian not coming back.
Gao Qingyun assumed that Dahe Village was located in the mountains, and that the mountain roads would be very difficult to travel when the heavy snow came.
This is what is known as heavy snow blocking the mountain passes.
However, although there are many mountains around the capital of the Ming Dynasty, they will not hinder Li Ruolian's return.
Zhu Youjian only paid attention to the heavy snow.
"It's only been a short time since autumn began, how come it's snowing already?"
Gao Qingyun nodded in agreement.
"The snow came quite early this year. Maybe it's another El Niño event?"
He then used a lot of weather-related terms, but Zhu Youjian couldn't understand any of them.
He casually made up an excuse to say goodbye to Gao Qingyun, then sat down to the side, his face full of helplessness.
"Is this the Little Ice Age that Master Gao mentioned a few days ago?"
"Sigh, it's snowing so early, looks like this winter is going to be tough!"
However, Zhu Youjian was not too worried.
"Anyway, with Master Gao's help, there will definitely be a solution to these problems."
"The most urgent thing is to call Li Ruolian back as soon as possible."
Upon returning to the main hall, he immediately summoned Wang Chengen and Luo Yangxing, and gave them separate instructions:
"In the next few days, I need to have more people protecting me. We must be careful of assassins."
"Also, Luo Yangxing, immediately send the Imperial Guards to contact Li Ruolian and urge him to return to the capital as soon as possible!"
Upon hearing this, Cao Huachun, who was standing to the side, frowned so deeply that he almost knitted his brows together.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally spoke up: "Your Majesty, when you went to see Master Gao just now, did he not say anything when he heard your suggestion?"
Zhu Youjian was taken aback, then seemed to remember something.
"Haha, it seems that you, Cao Daban, have only been with Master Gao for a few days, but you know him better than I do."
"I understand what you mean. You must be saying that there will be heavy snow in the next few days, so you should tell Li Ruolian to prepare for the cold."
"This matter is quite simple..."
As he spoke, he ordered Luo Yangxing to prepare some winter clothes in advance.
However, Cao Huachun interpreted these words differently.
"Could Master Gao be... someone who can command the wind and rain?"
His eyes were filled with shock.
In his view, although Wei Zhongxian was incredibly audacious, he was definitely not a fool.
Wei Zhongxian certainly knew that the key to the success of his conspiracy lay not with him, but with Li Ruolian.
Therefore, he would definitely send people in advance to keep an eye on things in the north of the city to prevent Li Ruolian from suddenly returning to the capital.
Therefore, he was not very optimistic about the emperor's plans.
"If Wei Zhongxian had known these things in advance, it would have only added more variables."
"The best solution is for the emperor to send additional troops to the capital."
"Although the other troops are not as reliable as Li Ruolian, they would never follow Wei Zhongxian in rebellion!"
However, after hearing Zhu Youjian's words, he completely gave up on the idea.
If heavy snow falls in the capital, it will be difficult for Wei Zhongxian's spies to find the army's whereabouts.
If Li Ruolian could seize the opportunity, he could evade detection, sneak into the capital, and launch a surprise attack on Wei Zhongxian.
"But why would it suddenly snow at this time of year?"
Although the story of the Little Ice Age was relayed by Cao Huachun.
But at that moment, he didn't think about any of that; instead, he started thinking about supernatural phenomena and superstitions.
"Could it be that Master Gao guessed that there was a loophole in the emperor's plan, so he specially requested heavy snow to cover the army's movements?"
"Master Gao is really..."
Cao Huachun felt numbness in his hands.
"This is truly divine skill!"
"I should try to get closer to him more often in the future."
Prior to this, Cao Huachun's attempts to curry favor with Gao Qingyun were largely driven by self-interest.
He wanted to use Gao Qingyun to deepen his relationship with the emperor.
But things changed from then on.
On the island in the middle of the lake, Gao Qingyun suddenly heard a system notification.
"Ding, the host has gained 250 reputation points."
Gao Qingyun shook his head in annoyance: "What's going on now?"
"And these reputation points... something's not right here either!"
"What do you mean '250'? Is this an insult to me or someone else?"
The system naturally wouldn't answer that question, and Gao Qingyun was just making a fuss.
He opened the system store, glanced at it, and then closed it while cursing.
"What can you do with 250 reputation points!"
