On the carriage back.
Yao Chen looked at the silent Jiang Yifeng and took the initiative to say, "Were you too cruel just now? She is still a child."
Jiang Yifeng answered the question inappropriately, "Have you heard everything?"
Yao Chen nodded, "Although my sense of smell is enhanced, I am a master after all, and my hearing is better than ordinary people."
"I see."
Jiang Yifeng smiled bitterly, rubbed his temples and said, "I also feel cruel, but I have no choice. If she wants to avenge her father, she can't be a flower in the greenhouse and must face the reality in person."
Yao Chen hesitated and said, "I admit that your words are reasonable, but telling her the truth is equivalent to cutting off her hope."
"hope?"
Jiang Yifeng sneered, with contempt in his tone, "Hope is just the self-comfort of the weak. If she relies on hope for revenge, she might as well die."
"..."
When Yao Chen heard this, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
He always thought that Jiang Yifeng seemed shameless, but was actually a kind-hearted person who had a bottom line in doing things. Otherwise, he would not be loved by the villagers of Coal Village.
But now he realized that he had only seen one side of Jiang Yifeng before, and there was another side of Jiang Yifeng.
Jiang Yifeng on the other side is very realistic, so realistic that he feels that Jiang Yifeng doesn't even look like a good person anymore.
After all, he didn't believe that good people would have the heart to do such cruel things.
However, he had to admit that Jiang Yifeng's words made sense.
"I suddenly discovered that human nature is much more complex than medicine. If everyone was like this, I would rather communicate only with Chinese medicine for the rest of my life."
After Yao Chen finished speaking, he looked at Jiang Yifeng and asked, "She is your disciple, will you help her?"
"have no idea."
Jiang Yifeng thought for a while, shook his head and said.
"have no idea?"
Yao Chen frowned and said in disbelief: "Her father is a good official, and you are her master. It is a just act for you to help her."
"Brother Yaochen, there is no right or wrong in many things." Jiang Yifeng's voice was filled with helplessness.
"As long as it's something, there must be right and wrong." Yao Chen retorted firmly.
"Yeah?"
Jiang Yifeng thought for a while and asked with a smile: "There is a runaway carriage. There are two roads in front of it. There is a child on one road and ten children on the other road. Which way will you let the carriage go?"
Yao Chen replied: "I can force the carriage to stop."
"..."
Jiang Yifeng thought that Yao Chen was the master, and was speechless for a while, then said: "Brother Yao Chen, not everyone can stop the running carriage. You must take one of two roads."
This time, Yao Chen hesitated for a while before answering: "I will choose the path with fewer children, so that more people can be saved."
Jiang Yifeng asked again: "What if that child is your child?"
"..."
Yao Chen was silent for a moment, and after a long time he gritted his teeth and said, "I...I will still choose the road with fewer people."
Hearing this answer, Jiang Yifeng didn't feel surprised, he had even guessed it.
It's not that he knows much about Yao Chen, but the education that Momen disciples have received since childhood is to save as many people as possible.
Jiang Yifeng asked calmly: "Brother Yaochen, you are the master of the Mo sect. Your character is far beyond ordinary people. Even you have to make such a difficult choice. Which path will those ordinary people choose?"
Yao Chen thought for a moment, "Ordinary people would choose the path with more children."
Jiang Yifeng asked again: "Are they wrong?"
"That's right!"
Yao Chen shook his head, "As a parent, it's normal to save your own children."
Jiang Yifeng smiled slightly, "Since you and ordinary people have made the right choices, can I understand that there is no right or wrong in this question?"
"..."
Yao Chen was completely speechless.
This seemingly simple question broke Momen's view that "everything is right and wrong" and made him doubt what he had learned since childhood.
Jiang Yifeng looked at the entangled Yao Chen and said with a smile: "The so-called right and wrong are actually differences in experience, viewpoints, and positions. From her situation, Emperor Zhou is wrong, but from the situation of others, Zhou Tianzi is wrong." The Emperor may be right, but how can I offer help until I understand the whole story?"
Although judging from the information obtained so far, there was a high probability that Lu Zhengqing was unjustly killed, but he did not believe that Emperor Zhou would be someone like Song Gaozong.
After all, Lu Zhengqing had a very high opinion of Emperor Zhou.
Yao Chen thought for a while and asked: "What if Emperor Zhou is a person who only cares about pleasure and is fatuous and incompetent?"
Faced with this problem, Jiang Yifeng suddenly smiled and said: "If that's the case, it would be easy to handle."
…
Jiang Yifeng has been busy in the next few days.
He was leaving Sioux City soon, so he had to explain everything clearly.
He didn't want to see one mess after another when he came back from Luoyi.
As a result of this busy schedule, I missed the finals of the Oiran Competition.
However, I learned from Su Yingxue that the final was quite successful, with Mulan winning the title of Most Beautiful Oiran with a slight advantage.
As for Zhang Yueru and Yun Qiluo, they also won the best figure and the most beautiful smile respectively.
Only a few people objected to the appearance of three oirans at the same time, while the vast majority of people agreed.
After all, Zhang Yueru and Yun Qiluo both have a large number of supporters. If they are not given the title of oiran, their supporters will not agree.
Of course, what satisfied Jiang Yifeng the most was the profit of more than 300,000 taels of silver from this Oiran competition.
Even after deducting the costs and the silver rewarded, the net profit reached 270,000 silver.
Looking at the wasted money, the only thing Jiang Yifeng felt was that the Oiran Competition could only be held once every three years.
"Are you really planning to bring only one hundred thousand taels of silver to Luoyi this time?" Su Yingxue continued: "Men should bring more silver when they go out."
Jiang Yifeng raised his eyebrows and smiled, "One hundred thousand taels of silver is enough. I can make money when I go to Luoyi. Don't you believe in my ability?"
Su Yingxue pursed her lips, "Of course I believe in your ability, but I'm just a little worried."
Jiang Yifeng joked: "You should be worried about the businessmen and families in Luoyi. Next, they will be robbed by me."
Hearing this, Su Yingxue rolled her eyes at Jiang Yifeng, "There are many talented people in Luoyi, so you'd better be careful."
"Um!"
Jiang Yifeng smiled and nodded. He could feel Su Yingxue's reluctance to leave him.
"besides……"
Su Yingxue looked at Jiang Yifeng and said with a serious expression: "Although I know there are powerful warriors around you, you must bring Dong Chu with you. You are his brother-in-law, and only he will protect you wholeheartedly."
Jiang Yifeng raised his eyebrows and asked, "If he goes to Luoyi with me, what will he do with his studies?"
"You make it sound like if he stays in Sioux City, he will study hard."
Su Yingxue glanced at Jiang Yifeng.
In the past, Su Dongchu just didn't study hard, so he would still go to school to take classes.
It's good now, since he won the title of Poet of the Zhongyuan Poetry Society, he has basically never been to a school.
At first she would scold her a few times, but over time, she got used to it...
