However, at this moment, it was too late to notice.
Aunt Lin opened her mouth and spit out blood, but she still laughed arrogantly.
Li Can leaned towards Zhao Ge in horror.
Where has she seen such a bloody scene?
"It's hopeless." Zhao Zhi raised his hand to cover Li Can's eyes and said calmly.
Everyone watched as Aunt Lin vomited blood for a while, then fell to the ground and twitched. In less than a cup of tea, she curled up on the ground and became motionless.
Zhao Ji looked at Feng Qing.
Feng Qing lowered his head: "Your Highness, when my subordinates caught her, they already found a poison from under her teeth.
The subordinate was negligent and did not realize that she had hidden two pills.
Please punish me, Your Highness."
"Let them drag the person down quickly." Li Can shook Zhao Ge's sleeves.
Zhao Zhen raised his hand.
Meng Junde hurriedly said: "Here comes someone, drag him down."
"Let the maids come in and clean up the floor." Mrs. Sun followed suit.
After a while, Zhao Ye let go of the hand covering Li Can's eyes: "It's okay."
Li Can looked at it, and his eyes returned to their original state. If it weren't for the faint smell of blood in the air, it would really seem like nothing had happened here.
"Don't blame Feng Qing." Li Can looked at Zhao Zong: "We have already obtained a lot of evidence. Whether Aunt Lin will explain or not, it actually doesn't matter."
"Yes." Zhao Hao nodded and told Feng Qing: "You guys go down first."
"Thank you, Miss. Thank you, Your Highness." Feng Qing quickly bowed her hands and glanced at Li Can gratefully.
Li Can pursed her lips and smiled at him.
"Ze Yu." Meng Junde said, "What should we do next?"
"Uncle, you think now is the time to close the net?" Zhao Zhi asked him.
"Now that An Zuxin has reported the Han family and his son, now we have to do something if we don't want to.
An Zuxin and his wife were imprisoned here, and they were fine for a while.
If after a long time, the Han family and his son find out that Ze Yu has arrested someone but has been standing still, they will definitely notice something abnormal." Meng Junde thought.
Zhao Ye nodded: "Yes, Aunt Lin's death cannot be hidden for long."
"This is the cunningness of the Han family father and son. How can they be brought together in one place and caught in one fell swoop?" Meng Junde is more worried about this issue: "As long as one of them, father and son, loses, the other will go crazy and do something."
Actions beyond our control.
Therefore, we must think of a foolproof strategy.”
"Uncle." Li Can thought for a while and said, "Can we let someone go first and keep an eye on the whereabouts of their father and son?
Then, we invited one of Han Taiyong and his son to come over and speak in front of us.
At the same time, they sent people to arrest the father and son who were outside first and put them under control.
Wouldn’t it be easy if we catch the one in front of us later?”
"Xin'er, this is a good idea." Meng Junde looked at Zhao Ge: "What do you think of Ze Yu?"
Zhao Ye thought for a moment and then asked: "Is there any banquet that can be held at home recently?"
"Banquet?" Meng Junde drew inferences and understood immediately: "You mean, if there is a banquet at home, you can invite them and their son?"
"Yeah." Zhao Zhen nodded.
"Madam?" Meng Junde looked up at Mrs. Sun.
These banquet matters at home are naturally in the hands of women, and he doesn't know much about them.
Sun thought for a moment, shook her head and said, "In this midsummer season, where can we have a banquet?
"Otherwise, we will send a message to Han Taiyong, just talk about An Zuxin's arrest, and ask him if he has any opinions." Li Can thought about it and said, "What happened to him? He is also a fellow magistrate of Shenzhou, and the magistrate has committed such a big crime.
, is it reasonable for us to ask him to come over for questioning?"
"Don't act rashly." Zhao Ye shook his head: "The news of An Zuxin's arrest was only released.
We don't have to worry, let's just wait and see what happens.
Let’s see if Han Taiyong and his son will do anything.
After a few days, if they don't move at all, it will be too late for us to take the initiative."
"Ze Yu's method is safe." Meng Junde nodded: "Just do what Ze Yu said and wait a few days.
Madam, please work harder, go and see Fuquan in person, and lead people to bury Aunt Lin, so the news must not leak out."
"Don't worry." Mrs. Sun nodded in agreement, and then said, "What about the people in Aunt Lin's yard?"
"Let the servants guard the yard first. No one can be let out. We will talk about it later." Meng Junde ordered.
Mrs. Sun agreed and sighed: "Xuan'er is really a hard-working person."
"Having a mother like this is a miserable life. Now that she is dead, Xuan'er's good life has just begun." Meng Junde raised his head and said, "When Xuan'er and mother come back from the temple, you will take the child to you."
Raise it.”
"I was just about to say this." Mrs. Sun was very happy: "I haven't taken care of children for many years."
Li Can looked at it and couldn't help but laugh.
This is quite good.
Aunt Lin should die.
Xuan'er will never be treated like that again.
She is still so young now. After a while, she will definitely forget that she has such a hateful biological mother. She will be safe and happy in the future and will no longer have to live in fear.
After leaving the main courtyard, Li Can held Zhao Zong's arm and urged him: "Send someone to follow the Han family and his son now.
In case one of them really comes to visit us, we will be caught off guard."
"Yes." Zhao Zong followed her instructions, and then said: "I'll take you back to the yard, I want to go out."
"Where are you going on such a hot day?" Li Can couldn't help but ask.
"The official seal of the government's important soldiers is in my hands. Naturally, I should go and count the number of people and gather them secretly." Zhao Ge explained: "The Han family and his son are not An Zuxin and his ilk, so they are not easy to deal with.
Even if these two really fall into our hands, we still have to be careful.
Lest they make any other arrangements in advance."
Li Can nodded when he heard this: "I understand, it is indeed necessary to gather everyone together in advance to avoid having to rush around later.
Then go ahead, be careful and come back early."
"Yes." Zhao Ye stretched out his hand to straighten the broken hair on her forehead: "Don't go out. I have left some people to protect you. Plus uncle's people here, no one should be able to hurt you for a while."
"Don't worry." Li Can nodded obediently: "I won't cause you any trouble."
After Zhao Ye sent her back to the yard, he went outside.
So, two days passed.
On Zhao's side, everything is ready, all he needs is Han Taiyong's east wind.
After lunch that day, Zhao Zong and Li Can were leaning on the couch, each holding a book and reading.
There are two ice basins in the house, and a rotating fan stands on the edge of the ice basin, letting in a cool breeze.
Although the two of them haven't spoken for a long time, they still have a warm and harmonious relationship.
Li Can was leaning against Zhao Ge, squinting his eyes and feeling sleepy.
"Girl, Your Highness, my uncle is here." Candy ran in to report the news.
"Xin'er." Ms. Sun called and came in. Only then did she see Zhao Zong was there. She smiled: "Ze Yu is also there. That's nice of me. It saves me two trips."
"What's the matter? Auntie." Li Can woke up from her drowsiness, stood up and went to hold her: "Come and sit down."
"Your uncle said that waiting like this is not an option, and he is afraid of long nights and many dreams." Sun sat down and told the whole story with a smile: "He thought of a way today.
He said he was going to pretend to be sick, so he lay down on the bed.
He said that no matter how different they were, he was still an official in Shenzhou. He was the elder brother of Concubine Chen and the uncle of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
Due to emotion and reason, these officials from Shenzhou should also come to visit.
Han Taiyong is no exception.
So, he thought of using this method to lure Han Taiyong.
I was afraid that something was wrong, so I came here to ask you."
Hearing this, Zhao Xi raised his eyes and asked, "Has anything like this ever happened during my uncle's tenure?"
"It did happen before." Mrs. Sun thought thoughtfully: "But how could your uncle be willing to associate with those corrupt officials?
Before, when he was sick, all those people came to visit him.
But your uncle doesn’t want to see you, so I politely declined them all.”
"Then we can give it a try." Zhao Zhen's heart moved and he asked again: "Has aunt hired a doctor for uncle?"
"Isn't this a discussion with you?" Mrs. Sun said with a smile: "If you nod, I will send someone to invite you."
"Invite an acquaintance, give him some money, and ask him to help." Zhao Zong followed closely.
"Don't worry." Mrs. Sun stood up and waved her hands: "I know all this and I will arrange it."
"This time, Han Taiyong should have taken the bait." Li Can whispered as he looked at Sun's leaving figure.
Zhao Hao nodded: "Yeah."
As expected, as the two of them expected, Han Taiyong came to the door with gifts on the second day after Meng Junde fell ill.
