Rebirth of the Merchant Woman's Revenge

Chapter 190 Making a feint to the east and attacking in the west

"Yes, that's what we mean, so no matter what, it's best to wait and see what happens, so as not to reveal other clues and get caught by the Dali Temple."

Cao Xingwen also said cautiously, "After all, the confessions they have now were all made by those people when they were mentally ill, and they cannot be considered direct evidence."

Wen Jiaxiang disagreed. The information they had had almost been confirmed. Jian Liangce brought three witnesses with him to Beijing this time, so they must have been prepared.

"I think that the most dangerous place is the safest place. This final moment might be the time when their defense is the most lax, especially since they have been guarding for several days and nothing has happened."

Wen Jiaxiang's words were also supported by Xi Gaoyuan, who said, "If we miss this opportunity, things will be more troublesome when Jian Liangce really meets the emperor tomorrow."

Li Junze was having a headache just listening to them arguing. He felt that both sides had some truth in what they said, but they both had concerns and couldn't make a decision for the time being, so he called Gu Qiongsi over to discuss it together.

Gu Qiongsi understood immediately. She was still worried about Ding Xiang, so she didn't think too much and said, "As long as the success of the operation can be guaranteed, then tonight is the best time to act."

"How do we ensure the success of the operation?" Wen Jiaxiang asked, and the others also looked at her.

"That depends on what kind of result Your Highness wants. Do you want the three witnesses to die, or do you want Jian Liangce to die, or do you want both of them to die, or do you want to just destroy the evidence in their hands?"

Gu Qiongsi spoke slowly. She had not participated in the early stages of the event, so she did not know what Li Junze was thinking.

Li Junze answered without even thinking, "All of them. I want them all to die, leaving no future troubles."

Li Junze's decision was also in line with Gu Qiongsi's thoughts. Cutting the grass without removing the roots has never been the idea that people who want to achieve great things should have. People like Prince An should be so decisive in doing things.

"In that case, let's make a feint to the east and attack in the west." Gu Qiongsi said.

"Oh, Qingzhu, tell me, how should we make a feint to the east and attack in the west?" Li Junze asked with interest.

"After the last incident, I think there won't be many people available in Prince An's Mansion. We can only strike hard now, otherwise there may be endless troubles. So the best way is to use medicine."

Gu Qiongsi smiled brightly, and Li Junze felt a strange feeling spreading in his heart...

In this way, Gu Xunwei waited bitterly for a whole night, but Sang Mo and Li Junhao did not show up. Instead, around midnight, someone gave Bai Zhi a message, saying that there was an emergency and they would not come tonight, so Gu Xunwei should rest first.

Although she knew that what they were busy with should be with Lord Yan and nothing dangerous would happen, she still tossed and turned in her sleep, just like she did last night.

She vaguely recalled that when she mentioned the Eleventh Prince to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince last night, His Royal Highness's expression seemed to show that he had no suspicion of the Eleventh Prince at all, which was not a good thing.

Thinking about how His Highness usually behaves, he has no idea what his prestige is in the court. If he has more money in his hands, will he consider giving more rewards to those below him?

Just like that, when she thought about it, Gu Xunwei didn’t know what she was thinking about. When it was almost dawn, she fell asleep.

However, she had just fallen asleep for a while when Bai Zhi came running over and knocked on the door, waking her up.

Chen Xiang came in with some water, and gave Bai Zhi a blank look. "You know that the young lady slept late last night, and you came here to make trouble so early in the morning."

Bai Zhi didn't take it seriously and smiled flatteringly at Chen Xiang. Then she said to Gu Xunwei, "Madam, Ding Xiang's affair has been discovered. Haha, this is really interesting..."

Gu Xunwei was also very surprised. She didn't expect that Bai Zhi would come to tell her such a thing. She thought it was something that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the others were handling.

"How did you get discovered?" Gu Xunwei asked Chenxiang to help her wash and dress.

"Last night, for some reason, Gu Qiongsi was called away temporarily, and his unreliable brother took over. As a result, this is what happened."

Bai Zhi smiled mischievously, but when she saw the expressions of Gu Xunwei and Chenxiang, she immediately restrained her expression in embarrassment. How could she forget that Dingxiang also grew up with them.

I really shouldn't have done that.

Gu Xunwei then asked, "After Ding Xiang knew what they asked her to do, how did she act?"

Bai Zhi had already lowered her head, but now she raised it again and said, "She chose to remain silent because she was probably worried that if Xie Chengan knew about it, he would kick her out, so she chose to remain silent and asked Gu Qiongsi to compensate her for half of the money."

"How could Gu Qiongsi agree to that? She needed money right now, so she agreed to give Ding Xiang 20% ​​of the shares in the incense shop, and the matter was not blown up."

After hearing Bai Zhi's words, Gu Xunwei was not surprised. Considering Dingxiang's self-proclaimed smart brain, it was understandable that she made such a choice.

"Anything else?" Gu Xunwei asked when she saw that Bai Zhi seemed to have something else to say.

Bai Zhi then continued, "Someone poisoned the government post last night, and several people were poisoned to varying degrees. Now the Dali Temple has arrested three people who did the poisoning overnight."

This should be what the prince and others were busy with last night. I wonder what the situation is now.

At this moment, the pigeons in the yard were heard fluttering around, crying out in fear. Bai Zhi's face changed immediately, and she rushed out in a whoosh.

Before she could take a closer look, Sang Mo had already appeared beside her.

"These pigeons are so fat, I don't know if they can still fly." Sang Mo said to Bai Zhi with a smile, holding a carrier pigeon in his hand.

Bai Zhi saw that it was him and immediately let down her guard, "It's none of your business. Let Xiao Hei go."

"Xiao Hei? It's not black..." Sang Mo looked at the pigeon in his hand. It was not black, but rather a little white.

"It's not black on the body, but it's black at heart."

"It has a black heart, why do you keep it so fat?"

"I'm going to stew it in a few days, so fatten it up in advance so it can have more meat."

"Oh……"

Sang Mo looked at the pigeon in his hand again, with a hint of sympathy in his eyes, but the pigeon had no idea that the few brief conversations between the two of them were all about discussing its own fate.
