    In the evening, Xia Yao came back with Mingrui.  Mingrui was back to normal when she returned home.  Wen Wan didn't notice anything was wrong.

    Xia Yao and Mingrui had their meals.  Xia Yao followed Wen Wan to the study, while Mingrui was pestered by the impatient Mingjin who had been waiting for a long time.  Mingrui was talking to Mingjin and Lingchen about what he saw today.  Mingrui spoke to the two of them in great detail.

    Wen Wan took the interrogation transcript handed over by Xia Yao and read it very seriously.  After reading it, he put down the transcript, which will be sent back tomorrow: "Xia Yao, you personally listened in, what do you think?" In fact, it doesn't matter whether Wen Wan goes or not this time.  How these people end up depends on the emperor.

    Xia Yao thought for a moment and then said: "Although they violated the laws of Daqi and were sentenced according to the crime. But I saw that two of them kept crying out that they were wronged. Even after being tortured, they gritted their teeth and said that they were wronged. But the county  The Lord is right about one thing. Most of these people still have merit. "The merit is that these people defrauded either officials or wealthy businessmen.  There is no oppression of ordinary people.  These businessmen are not good things in the eyes of ordinary people. It is said that no businessman is a traitor (it seems that your master is also half a businessman).

    Xia Yao has never seen the information that Xia Ying checked.  I don¡¯t know which people are really wronged and which people are not.

    She said with a gentle smile: "You mean to ask me to plead for mercy?"

    ??

    Wen Wan thought for a while and then said: "I will tell the emperor my opinion when the time comes. As for the outcome, it depends on what the emperor wants."

    None of the people escorted back to the capital were clean.  It¡¯s just that the culpability varies from big to small.  Of course, no matter it is ancient or modern, as long as you are an official, you can correct your mistakes.  Not to mention others, if Wen Wan were to fall from power, the 108-point culpability would probably be just a drop in the bucket.

    Since everyone is guilty, Wen Wan will naturally not speak.  How to deal with it must be decided by the person sitting on the throne.  How should the emperor deal with these people.  Wen Wan doesn¡¯t know how to count them in her heart!  How could you beg for mercy?  As for asking for this favor, that's even less so.  Even if you want to show kindness, it depends on the target.  And if these people dare to do something that violates the law, they must bear the consequences.  However, it is still possible to do this with gentleness in order to help begging for mercy and not burdening the family.

    After Xia Yao and Wen Wan finished talking about the business, they talked about Mingrui's performance: "It was good at the beginning. But when it comes to torture, it won't work. His face is pale, his hands and feet are cold, and he is scared. I have to be careful tonight, I'm worried about tomorrow.  Rui will have nightmares." Xia Yao really felt that Wen Wan was backfiring her.  What to do if it really triggers a nightmare.

    Wenwan smiled softly: "I believe Mingrui will act appropriately."

    Wenwan went to find the child.  When I saw three children discussing together, I walked in with a smile and asked, "How was the discussion?" This kind of thing had already started last year.  The three children are no strangers to this either.  The discussion was also full of interest.

    Wen Wan asked the three children for their opinions, and then also mentioned her own point of view. The point of view put forward by Wen Wan may not be the most accurate, but now it is more detailed and comprehensive.

    After finishing the conversation, Mingjin couldn't help but ask Wen Wan: "Mom, they were heroes before. Why are they reduced to prisoners now? Mom, why is this happening?"

    Wen Wan looked at Mingrui and Lingyu, Mingrui said nothing.  Ling Chang pondered for a moment and said, "Auntie, they are in trouble because of their greed, right?"

    Wen Wan nodded: "So, but it's not the exact reason. The real reason is that they couldn't resist the temptation, became greedy, and their willpower is not enough. Once the situation goes against their own principles, there will be a second time.  Second time. Then, I fell into it completely.¡±

    The three children thought seriously.  Everyone expressed their opinions and nodded frequently.  I am truly happy about the understanding of my three children.

    Wait until the three children have finished discussing it.  Wen Wan then gave the three children a stack of materials to read.  The people in these materials are not the sixteen criminals imprisoned in Dali Temple, but they are also generals of the Huwei Army, middle-level generals: "These people are also generals of the Huwei Army. They are all outstanding generals trained by your father, but they can resist  Live the temptation.¡±

    Mingrui hesitated for a moment and then said: "Mom, these people took advantage of the loopholes in the law? So they escaped." The information Wen Wan gave them recorded some things about these people.  They are also normal and there is nothing illegal.  But they also make money, but they make money on the fringes.  It is what modern people call the gray area of ??life.

    Mingjin was puzzled: "Mom, why don't you arrest these people?" According to Mingjin, these people are also??Illegal.

    Wen Wan smiled and looked at Ling Chang: "Ling Chang, what do you want to say?"

    Lingting is currently studying the Twenty-Four Histories with Wen Wan, and this is what he is studying.  After a long time, Ling Chang said, "Auntie, if the water is clear, there will be no fish."

    Wen Wan nodded: "Yeah. It's a reason. The real reason is because their income and expenditure are unbalanced." Wen Wan talked about why the income and expenditure were unbalanced, and then a series of things happened as a result.  When there are external temptations, few people can resist them.  And these require extremely strong principles.  However, on the premise of adhering to the principles, you should also know how to be flexible instead of blindly acting recklessly.  Otherwise, you will be ostracized.

    Wen Wan finally used Bai Shinian as an example.  It was said that after Bai Shinian won the battle, he gave some of the spoils to the court and left some for everyone to share.

    The three children looked at each other in shock at the concept of gentleness.

    Wen Wan touched the foreheads of Mingrui and Mingjin, and said with a smile: "It's not that your father is greedy for money. Your father is not short of this money, and my family is not short of this money. But just because your father is not short of money does not mean that other generals are not short of money."  . He doesn't dare to ask for it from others. Don't think it's because these soldiers are greedy, but because their salaries are so small, they have to give them subsidies from the spoils they fought for their lives.  , as time passes, something will happen. So everyone in the court knows about it, and they just turn a blind eye to it, because they sacrifice their lives for it. "

    Mingrui frowned.  Ling Chang was thoughtful.  Mingjin muttered, expressing that it was difficult to understand.  In his mind, his father is a great hero, how could he do such a thing!

    That night, the three children have been thinking about what Wen Wan said.  Greed, temptation, principle, human heart.  These linger in the ears of the three children.

    The next day Mingrui still went to listen.

    Wen Wan predicts that this case will be tried in three days, and then the emperor will make a decision.  At the same time, these people all asked to meet Mingrui.

    Mingrui refused to see them and returned directly to the princess's mansion.  After Wen Wan found out, she agreed to let Mingrui go see them.  It is impossible for these people to make any excessive demands.

    Xia Yao was a little confused about Wen Wan's actions: "Princess, the prison is filthy. I don't agree with letting the eldest son in."

    Wen Wan smiled lightly: "Just go with me. With you by my side, those messy things dare not get close." Known as the female king of hell, the other brats quickly gave way.

    Xia Yao is angry.

    Mingrui didn¡¯t understand this: ¡°Mom, why do you want me to see them?¡± Mingrui didn¡¯t feel the need to see them.

    Wen Wan touched Mingrui¡¯s head.  Wen Wan discovered that Mingrui was very stubborn and would never look back on things he decided on.  Wen Wan is very worried about Mingrui¡¯s temperament. This world is not a world of right and wrong. Sometimes we need to compromise, adapt, and change: ¡°Not only because your father has a close relationship with them, but also because my mother is one of them.¡±  If you don¡¯t go to the top, it would be too heartless in the eyes of others.¡±

    Mingrui pursed his lips but did not speak.  Wen Wan smiled and held him in her arms. Mingrui wanted to resist in her heart, but in the end she obeyed and let Wen Wan hold him on her knees: "Silly boy, do you know why mother gave money to Ping Xiangxi in the end?"

    Mingrui knew this. At that time, Wenwan said she didn't want to cause trouble, and she didn't want to be accused of being unfilial. "Mom, why?" Mingrui felt that both reasons were unreliable.

    Wen Wan smiled softly: "Firstly, I don't want to leave eternal infamy and controversy, and secondly, I don't want to hurt my future children. So I made a compromise. But my compromise does not mean that I have been wronged. I just want to waste my time."  But the person who is really suffering is the pain in his heart that is much better than the wealth he enjoys. "Ping Xiangxi would not be able to live without her money.  Very miserable.  Firstly, he has a son who is an official, and secondly, his brother is still Duke Ping.  We don¡¯t have fine clothes and food, but we will definitely have enough food and clothing.

    Mingrui muffled.

    Wen Wan touched Mingrui's head: "Mingrui, you have to remember. Some things must be adhered to, such as principles. But some things must be flexible, Mingrui, this world is not only black and white, but also gray.  , and there are other colors. You may not like it, but don¡¯t look at it with a colored eye. Otherwise, you will lose your sense of normalcy and make wrong judgments.  Said: "Mingrui, you will be a general in the future. If you are too stubborn and insist on your own opinion, thousands of people may die if you accidentally die." Wen Wan took the opportunity to tell Mingrui about Zhuge Liang's tearful execution of Ma Su.  s story.

    Mingrui¡¯s eyes widened when she heard it: ¡°Mom, what kind of story is this? Why haven¡¯t I heard it?¡±

    Wen Wan can say that these are three?¡¯s story?  No: "If you want to hear it, Mom will tell it to you later. But now, I have to go to Dali Temple to listen." Wen Wan thought it was time to tell the story of the Three Kingdoms to her three children.  Well, if we combine it with Sun Tzu's Art of War, it will be very effective.  At least you can guide Mingrui and not be stubborn.  Of course, it remains to be seen whether it will be effective.
