The two people inside the room exchanged a glance.
Lin Zao carefully tidied up the box, locked it, and hid it. Only after confirming that everything was alright did she nod.
Tang Jian spoke:
"Come in!"
As Sun Ding opened the door and entered, he was carrying a tray with something on it.
It looks like an iron token.
Tang Jian reached out and picked up the token, noticing a single character on it.
"Nonsense!"
"Reporting to the General, it should be the Tianwang Pavilion, a newly emerging assassination organization in recent years! It is said that their base is near Yizhou Prefecture! I suspect that the Second Prince is secretly supporting them."
"What else did you find?"
Tang Jian's statement is undeniable.
"My subordinates examined the weapon he used but found no markings. However, they did find a very strange poison in his teeth."
"oh?"
“I took it to Doctor Zhang for examination, but Doctor Zhang also knew nothing about it. He said that Doctor Yuan was more skilled in treating poisons and told us to take it to Doctor Yuan for identification.”
Even Lin Zao was puzzled. Why would an assassin need to commit suicide with such a complicated poison?
Or was it not intended for suicide?
That doesn't make any sense at all!
Tang Jian pondered for a while, and after forming some guesses, he instructed Sun Ding:
"Go find Doctor Yuan first to find out what kind of poison it is!"
"Yes, General. Madam, I shall take my leave!"
"Wait, take this token with you too!"
Tang Jian placed the token in his hand back on the tray.
After Sun Dingyuan left.
Lin Zao asked Tang Jian, "What did you guess?"
Tang Jian raised an eyebrow. "I have indeed discovered something, but it's not impossible for me to tell you. When will the sachet that you promised to give me last time be ready?"
Lin Zao choked up. Actually, she hadn't forgotten, but she just didn't know how to do it, so she had been putting it off.
I thought maybe he'd forget about it after a while.
Who knew this man remembered it so clearly!
"Alright, alright, I remember! I just bought some agarwood today. I'll have the housekeeper find someone to make some incense, and I'll put it in a sachet and give it to you, okay?"
Tang Jian then looked at her with a low smile:
"This is what you promised your husband before, it doesn't count. Now you want to know, you need to give your husband another reward."
"Hmph, what a rarity!"
Lin Zao glared at him angrily, then turned and left. She wasn't going to serve him anymore!
Tang Jian shook his head with a helpless smile, then his expression gradually calmed down.
It wasn't that he didn't want to tell her, but the matter was far-reaching, and knowing it would only cause her more trouble.
If his guess is correct, the person most concerned about this matter should be the prince.
If Doctor Yuan confirms it, he will definitely inform the Prince, so there's no need for him to go through all this trouble.
Before it got dark, the couple went to the Prince's Mansion to pick up their two children from school.
When the two children saw their parents come to pick them up again, they naturally hugged them happily and talked about what they had learned from their teacher that day. The carriage was filled with laughter and joy.
Although Lin Zao suddenly realized that she might be the same Lin Zao from before, she didn't feel any relief or guilt when facing the two children.
She still loved the two children as much as ever, and her belief that she and the original owner of this body were the same person deepened a little.
That night, it's unclear what agreement Tang Jian made with the two children, but both children obediently went to sleep on their own.
"My lady! Tonight is a rare and beautiful night, why don't we rest here?"
Tang Jian's lips curled up, and his aura instantly turned dangerous as he stared intently at Lin Zao.
It was as if if she made the slightest move to run away, he would transform into a hungry wolf and pounce on her to tear her apart and devour her.
