"Damn it, everyone follow me!"
Li Boyan immediately gave the order to take people to capture Wang Meng and bring him to justice.
Now that Zhao Han is dead, he will definitely not have a good ending, so a scapegoat must be found immediately.
And the scapegoat was naturally Wang Meng, not to mention that the incident was caused by Wang Meng in the first place.
He also had to find out clearly who had instructed Wang Meng to kill Zhao Han.
In this way, he could be prepared, after all, the other party would definitely not let him go easily.
So Li Boyan immediately brought a dozen of his men to Wang Meng's office.
"Wang Meng! Come out here!"
"You were promoted by me, but now you are pretending to obey me and even disobeying my orders. What crime should you be punished for?"
"Come out, me!"
However, there was no sound coming from Wang Meng's office.
Li Boyan couldn't help but feel a little strange. Could it be that Wang Meng had already fled last night out of fear of crime?
He immediately looked at the person next to him.
Then someone came over and reported: "Sir, Minister Wang entered this room yesterday and never came out again."
Li Boyan realized something was wrong instantly and rushed in.
Sure enough, as soon as he came in, he found Wang Meng lying on the table, not moving at all.
"Is he dead?"
Li Boyan felt his heart pounding and hurried forward to check on Wang Meng's condition.
Before he had time to test Wang Meng's breath, he found arsenic on the table.
"not good!"
Li Boyan hurried forward to test Wang Meng's breath, but Wang Meng had stopped breathing at all. He touched Wang Meng's hand again.
"The body is already stiff. Wang Meng committed suicide by taking poison last night..."
Li Boyan murmured.
His eyes were a little dazed, and the scene before him made cold sweat break out on his forehead.
He really didn't expect that Wang Meng would also commit suicide by taking poison.
Did Wang Meng commit suicide or was he murdered?
Or did he know how powerful the person behind him was, so he just died?
But no matter what, Wang Meng is dead now, and Li Boyan only feels deep fear.
You know, Wang Meng was trained by him bit by bit!
It can even be said that the person least likely to betray him in the entire officialdom is Wang Meng.
But such a person was unexpectedly bribed by others without knowing when, and the others were used against him!
There was a deep fear in Li Boyan's eyes.
Now that Wang Meng is dead and Zhao Han is also dead, he can't find a scapegoat.
This is like yellow mud falling down the crotch of your pants, it's either shit or it's shit.
Li Boyan couldn't help but cover his heart with his hands, feeling like he was about to faint.
Zhao Han could not die any more, and the Second Prince would definitely come to trouble him. Even if he wanted to explain to the Second Prince, he would be powerless.
Because Wang Meng was already dead, there was no evidence.
Even though he told the second prince that he had arranged for Wang Meng to save Zhao Han's life yesterday.
But no one believed him.
The Second Prince doesn't care about that at all, he only cares about the result...
At this moment, Li Boyan only felt a sense of regret.
If he had known earlier, he should not have gotten involved in this mess.
He should not have taken Zhao Han directly back to the Ministry of Justice, but should have used his connections to get other people to rescue Zhao Han. If Zhao Han died somewhere else, perhaps he wouldn't have to find a scapegoat, and the blame wouldn't be on him.
But Zhao Han died in the prison of the Ministry of Justice...
Li Boyan had no other choice but to ask his trusted subordinate to take a message to Su Yuanwu and tell him everything about the matter.
Now all he can do is to try his best and leave the rest to fate.
Actively admitting mistakes and explaining why things were not done well may help you save your life.

Su Mansion.
When Su Yuanwu heard the words sent by Li Boyan, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and froze in place, not knowing what to say at all.
"Tell me again, who died?"
He even couldn't believe it, grabbed the collar of the man next to him and asked angrily.
"Reporting to the Lord, Zhao Han is dead... Wang Meng, who was responsible for protecting his safety, is also dead."
After hearing the news again, Su Yuanwu couldn't catch his breath and fainted on the ground.
A few hours later, when Su Yuanwu woke up from his bed, his whole body became extremely weak.
He got out of bed tremblingly, but at this moment he found that his hair had turned from black to white in just a few minutes!
Su Yuanwu let out a long sigh. He knew that his career as the Minister of Personnel had come to an end.
The second prince must be resentful of him for executing Zhao Han.
The second prince was indeed a person who only cared about the results and not the process. He knew clearly that the Minister of Justice Li Boyan had a very good personal relationship with him.
But Li Boyan executed Zhao Han at this time.
Then the second prince would only suspect that he was the one who gave the order to Li Boyan to kill Zhao Han.
The second prince would also suspect that he and he were not on the same page.
No matter how he defended himself, it would be useless. The person was already dead, and the Second Prince would definitely hate him to death.
You know, as a prince, the second prince certainly hopes that the people around him who can be used are those promoted by him, like Zhao Han.
So even though Su Yuanwu is the second prince's uncle, he is also not trusted by the second prince.
In the final analysis, the Second Prince just doesn't want to be manipulated by others...
Now that Zhao Han is dead, the second prince has also lost the support of the poor students.
Su Yuanwu held his forehead in pain. His eldest nephew must have been very angry. He would not care about so many things and would only hold this grudge on himself.
He let out a long sigh. What had been a good game of chess was ruined by him at this moment.
He was also afraid at this time.
Su Yuanwu suspected that there was an invisible hand behind this, planning to kill him, the second prince's right-hand man, from the very beginning.
This strategy is actually a strategy of sowing discord!
As long as the second prince no longer trusts Su Yuanwu, the other party's goal will be achieved.
Of course, the most important point is that the only force the second prince can rely on now is the emperor who doesn’t pay much attention to him.
There is only me, the Minister of Personnel.
Therefore, once I fall, the other party will definitely not let the second prince go. This is called defeating them one by one!
Su Yuanwu didn't know what to say for a moment, he could only sit on the edge of the bed and sigh.
But he soon figured out who was behind this.
In the Great Zhou Dynasty, only the Jun family has such strength! (End of this chapter)
