Aunt Lin fights for favor so that she can always stay with her uncle, so that she can continuously provide her master with news about his uncle."
"Yes." Zhao Ye nodded: "Before, news did leak out, but my uncle never found out who leaked it."
"Then you came to Shenzhou twice before, but have you ever been seen by her?" Li Can heard this and asked.
"No." Zhao Zhen shook his head: "I came quietly and only met my uncle, aunt, and grandmother.
The rest of the people were specially called by grandma when you came today.
There are many people I have met for the first time."
Li Can blinked his eyes and said, "Then it's easy to handle. Now that we are here, Aunt Lin also knows.
If she was really sent by someone from outside, she would definitely not be able to help spreading the news of our arrival.
So we just need to send people to keep an eye on Aunt Lin."
"Yes." Zhao Zhi agreed.
"When she sends people out, don't rush to arrest her." Li Can continued: "Let people follow her to see who she meets, and who Aunt Lin is."
"I have already made arrangements." Zhao Zhen rubbed her head: "You are very thoughtful about things now."
"That's natural. It doesn't matter who taught me." Li Can smiled and reached out to hug his thin waist.
Zhao Ye hugged her tightly with both hands, closed his eyes, and raised the corners of his lips slightly.
The next day.
Li Can got up early in the morning. It's always hard to get up too late when visiting other people's homes.
She had just finished dressing and washing when Zhao Zong came.
"How morning for you." Li Can walked out of the room and looked at him with a smile.
"I was earlier than you thought." Zhao Xie put the food box in his hand on the table: "I got up early to buy it, Shenzhou specialty breakfast."
"Let me take a look." Li Can couldn't wait to open the food box.
Zhao Ye looked at her with a smile: "Did you sleep well last night?"
"You know I love the bed." Li Can took out a basket of small buns and put them on the table: "So, I asked someone to make me a soothing soup early, ate it and fell asleep."
"That's good, but you can't eat the soothing soup all the time." Zhao Zhi raised his hand to help her and took out the breakfast in the food box.
The two sat next to each other and had breakfast together.
"Your Highness, girl."
Sugar Ball walked in.
"What's the matter?" Zhao Zhi asked.
"My uncle sent someone to send a message, saying that he has invited a guest to the door today, and asked His Highness and the girl to prepare and meet the guest later." Tangqiu bowed his head and replied.
"I know." Zhao Zhen nodded in agreement.
Li Can watched Tang Qiu retreat and couldn't help but ask Zhao Zong: "What kind of guest?
Do I want to meet you too?"
"It's Wang Yiyuan, the general judge of Shenzhou, and his family." Zhao Ge paused his chopsticks and said, "In the past few years since my uncle came to Shenzhou, Wang Yiyuan has helped him a lot.
He and his uncle are colleagues and close friends. When I came, my uncle said he wanted to make an introduction."
Li Can raised his eyes and looked at him, wondering: "The official position of Tongjian is higher than that of Zhifu and Zhizhou, right?"
"Yes." Zhao Zhen nodded and explained in detail: "But Tongpan has the responsibility of supervising the officials, so it became a 'supervisory state'.
All official matters within the state government, such as military affairs, household registration, taxes and servitude, prison litigation, etc., must be jointly signed by the judge to be effective and enforceable."
Li Can listened to his explanation and suddenly realized: "So, although the general magistrate has a higher position than those in Buzhizhou, he also has a certain right to speak.
Therefore, Wang Yiyuan can speak well in Shenzhou.
Then he has a good relationship with his uncle, so he must be a very honest official?"
"Yes." Zhao Zong nodded: "I have never met him in person, but I heard my uncle mention him and often praise him highly.
Wang Yiyuan's family lives not far from here, and the place at home is larger than that of his uncle's house.
His wife makes clothes in a clothing shop in the market to supplement the family income."
"Is he so incorruptible?" Li Can opened his eyes wide: "If it is true, you should go back and ask your father for instructions. For such an incorruptible official, your father should reward him more and put him in a better position."
"Yes." Zhao Ye nodded in agreement: "That's exactly what I meant.
If nothing else happens, after the fall of the An family and the Han family, it will be Wang Yiyuan's turn to be the prefect of Shenzhou."
Li Can nodded, rolled his eyes, the two looked at each other, and both laughed.
"What are you laughing at?" Li Can asked Zhao Hao.
Zhao Zong asked her back: "Did you become suspicious just now?"
"Yes." Li Can smiled and nodded: "As soon as I said it would be beneficial, I couldn't help but wonder if this person was doing something secretly.
Isn’t this what you taught me?”
She pursed her lips and smiled, looking at Zhao Zong. Is this a tacit understanding?
Zhao Xie's eyes flashed with a smile: "I think so too."
"Of course, I was taught by you, so we both think the same thing." Li Can held his chopsticks and thought about it: "Anyway, we are not in a hurry to leave for a while, and then we will carefully investigate the Wang family.
That’s it.”
"Yeah." Zhao Zhi also agreed.
The two had breakfast, sat and talked for a while, and then headed forward.
To entertain the Wang family, the Meng family did not use the formal main hall, but used the side hall next to it. My aunt Sun also did not dress up deliberately, wearing light and casual clothes, and was busy back and forth.
Li Can saw it in his eyes and thought silently, only when entertaining people close to him would people be so casual.
It seems that the Wang family does get along very well with the Meng family.
At noon, Wang Yiyuan came to the door with his family.
"Brother Wang." Meng Junde was waiting in the corridor and greeted him from a distance.
"Brother Meng." Wang Yiyuan bowed his hands towards Meng Junde from afar.
