Chapter 317: Not Tolerating

The Empress Dowager attempted to approach the issue from a different angle to expose Qin Zhenzhen's scheme.

"It's highly probable that Qin Zhenzhen discovered not just a few Immortal Pills, but a significant quantity of them. She may have intentionally mystified the situation by claiming that Immortal Pills are a rare find, then proceeded to amass a fortune from us!"

The Empress Dowager's argument seemed rather superficial and lacked a sound basis.

Frowning, the Emperor responded, "Mother, the ancient texts clearly state that Immortal Pills don't grow in abundance. Only two of them appear each time, and they won't reappear nearby."

Despite the Emperor's counterargument, the Empress Dowager still wished to assert her viewpoint. However, the Emperor questioned her directly, "Mother, do you desire more Immortal Pills or do you wish to see Qin Zhenzhen punished?"
