The full-level boss really doesn't want to be green tea anymore

Chapter 106 Cause and Effect
The corners of Wen Moyan's mouth twitched. She didn't care much about rewards, but right now, she couldn't resist the orders.

No way, Wen Moyan bit the bullet, followed Qingyue into the carriage, and went straight to the palace.

-

Dragon Palace.

Now is not the time to go to court, Wen Moyan thought that Qingyue would take her to the imperial study, but unexpectedly came to Longteng Hall.

There was an impersonal chill in the majestic palace, Wen Moyan felt uncomfortable every time he came here.

She walked into the hall slowly, and saw Emperor Xuanwu sitting on a high seat with a gloomy expression.

Below stood several princes, as well as Prime Minister Wu and Wu Xuanye, the fourth son of the Wu family.

In addition, the Wu Xuan family, the second son of the Wu family, who is full of decadence, is also kneeling on the ground, as well as...

Wen Moyan's eyes widened suddenly, because the other two kneeling people were none other than the shopkeepers of Yuewei Thatched Cottage and Qingyutang.

Wen Moyan's palms tightened, it seemed that today's so-called reward might be a bit hot.

"My concubine sees Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty." Wen Moyan saluted obediently.

Emperor Xuanwu looked at her, and suddenly chuckled: "Wen Moyan, I... really underestimated you."

Wen Moyan's heart tightened, and she hurriedly responded: "The concubine is terrified, I don't know why Your Majesty said such a thing?"

Seeing this, Shuang Feichen on the side walked up to Wen Moyan, took her hand, and said, "Father Huang Mingjian, the matter of speculating on herbs is all my idea and has nothing to do with Yan'er. Yan'er is just pushing the boat along the way." It’s just to get rid of the slander of the demon girl.”

Emperor Xuanwu sneered and said: "Your idea? I don't know that my seventh son has such a deep scheming. Seeing that the whole imperial hospital is on fire, you can still bear your temper and design others , Waiting for an opportunity to make money!"

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere immediately became tense.

Seeing this, Shuang Yuanxing hurriedly explained: "Father, that's not the case, you misunderstood Brother Seven! Brother Seven..."

"What is he? He is just waiting for an opportunity to make money. Just now, my father has interrogated the shopkeepers of Yuewei Caotang and Qingyutang. In the early stage of the epidemic, the people who came forward to purchase herbs were people from your Qin Palace. You are hoarding so that Shangyitang There is no medicine available, and in the end, the price of the medicine is raised to make a profit, one pile after another, witnesses and evidence gathered, what else do you have to explain?" Prince Shuang Yuanxiu added insult to injury and pushed all the crimes to the head of King Qin's mansion superior.

"You! You are clearly turning black and white!" Shuang Yuanxing couldn't hold back, and was about to quarrel with Shuang Yuanxiu.

"It's because you are greedy and disregard human life!" Shuang Yuanxiu was not to be outdone.

Emperor Xuanwu, who was sitting high, looked increasingly ugly. He patted the armrest of the dragon chair vigorously, and said angrily: "Enough!"

Everyone knelt on the ground in unison, and said in unison: "Your Majesty, calm down."

Emperor Xuanwu's face was cold, his eyes were like the blade of a knife, and he swept across the crowd below.

His sons are all grown up, and they can't wait to expand their power. Does this mean that he, the father, is going to die?

Everyone is worth a lot of money, so why do they want to collect money? It is clear that they intend to use money to support soldiers, is it possible that they are planning to rebel?

Thinking of this, Emperor Xuanwu clenched his hands into fists.

"Your Majesty, my concubine has something to say." Wen Moyan's voice broke the suffocating tranquility of Longteng Hall.

Everyone looked at her one after another, and Shuang Feichen said nervously, "Yan'er, don't talk nonsense."

Wen Moyan ignored Shuang Feichen, but looked at Emperor Xuanwu, and continued: "Your Majesty, my concubine is not born well, and I have little talent and learning. There is a problem that I have been unable to figure out. I hope Your Majesty can enlighten me."

"Wen Moyan, is there something wrong with you? Now you are investigating the crimes of the Qin Palace, do you think you are gossiping with you?" Shuang Yuanxiu scolded her impatiently.

Wen Moyan said calmly: "My question is related to today's right and wrong. If the question is solved, then who is guilty and who is not guilty, right and wrong, can be clearly understood."

Emperor Xuanwu raised his eyebrows slightly, feeling that Wen Moyan's aura and attitude really didn't look like a petty concubine.

He summoned Wen Moyan, with the intention of letting Wen Moyan take all the blame for the Qin Palace, but at the moment, it seems that she is unwilling to accept it, and is trying to fight back.

Emperor Xuanwu asked with interest: "Oh? Then tell me, what's your problem?"

Wen Moyan looked at Emperor Xuanwu, and asked, "Your Majesty, my concubine would like to ask, everything has a cause and effect. Does your Majesty think the cause or the effect is important?"

This……

Emperor Xuanwu didn't answer immediately, but the people below couldn't help whispering.

Prime Minister Wu frowned and said: "Of course, the result is important, the result can have an impact on the current situation."

Xiang Wang Shuang Yuanxing shook his head and said: "This king thinks that the cause is important. If there is no cause, how can there be the result?"

Prince Shuang Yuanxiu retorted: "Of course the result is important. No matter how good your cause is, the result is a bad result, not a disaster for the people."

Wu Xuanye, the fourth son of the Wu family, shook his head slightly and said: "It's not always true. If you do something bad with good intentions, because of goodness, the result is evil, and everyone will forgive you."

……

Everyone said something to each other, and the discussion started.

Seeing that they were arguing and arguing without any conclusion, Emperor Xuanwu who sat high up simply looked at Wen Moyan and asked, "Wen Moyan, do you think cause is more important than fruit?"

Wen Moyan replied in a clear voice: "Responding to your Majesty, the concubine feels that cause is important. Because 'cause' is the motivation for doing something, and motivation is controllable. And there are too many variables in 'effect'. Uncontrollable. In the eyes of my concubine, if the motive is pure and the result is unsatisfactory, it is harmless. But if the motive is impure and the result is harm to others, it is not worthy of sympathy."

Speaking of this, Wen Moyan looked at the doctor of Shangyitang and the Wuxuan family, the second son of the Wu family, and continued: "Shangyitang and Wuxuan's family have been selling antidote from the beginning, and their motives were not pure. The cost of the medicine is only 50 Wen, but they sell it for one tael of silver. If everyone in the capital buys it, there will be a profit of four to five million taels. So from the beginning, they were either to cure the disease and save lives, or to wait for the opportunity to make a profit. For the 'cause', bankruptcy is the 'effect'."

When Wu Xuan's family heard this, they couldn't help but angrily reprimanded: "You are talking nonsense, I... I mortgaged the entire mansion in order to treat people's diseases, how can I make any money?"

Wen Moyan sneered, ignored Wu Xuan's family, but continued: "The concubine has a little knowledge of medical skills, and knowing that there are many common people in the capital, who can't afford this tael of silver, decided to make an antidote and give it away for free. So the concubine asked His Highness the King of Qin to purchase a large amount of herbal medicine, which was used to prepare the antidote, and then made the antidote into a coil of incense, which could cure the common people more quickly and conveniently. During the production process, the concubine found that the procured There is a surplus of herbs, and it just so happens that someone is buying them at a high price at this time. The concubine has no reason not to sell them. So I entrusted two shopkeepers to sell the excess herbs. The Qin Palace is the "cause" of curing diseases and saving people, and it happens to be the "effect" of making money."
