Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

This is also why they went to great lengths to put these experts in death row.

But now, even these experts have been poisoned?!

"Li Lan!"

For some reason, Mr. Zhu suddenly looked at Li Lan and said, "It's you! It was you who did this, wasn't it?!"

He didn't know how Li Lan had managed it, but his intuition told him that in the current court and among the people, only Li Lan could have seen through the murder plot!

Upon hearing this, Li Lan smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Zhu, as I have said, taking office too early is not a good thing."

"What exactly did you do? No, I know now, you tampered with their things when you were in prison, and you already found out their identities... But how could you know that? The time was so short, and the clues Zhao Tanyue gave you were simply not enough!"

Mr. Zhu was deep in thought, desperately trying to figure out the reason behind it all. Suddenly, something occurred to him, and he abruptly turned to look at one of the prisoners, exclaiming, "Gu Changfeng?!"

Among the assassins, Gu Changfeng stepped forward without any further concealment. He walked directly to Li Lan, knelt down, and said, "Gu Changfeng was ordered by Grand Scholar Li Lan to investigate the assassins in the prison. I have done my duty!"

Everyone in the room was stunned and puzzled.

"It's actually Li Lan?"

"He knew about the assassin all along, so he sent people to scout ahead of time?"

"These assassins were poisoned by him?!"

The courtiers were all horrified.

What kind of devil is Li Lan?!

Since the grand wedding at the Lin family a month ago, he has suddenly become famous. First, he helped Zhao Tanyue expose the secret letter, then he gained the name of the Poet Immortal. He was involved in a cheating case but inexplicably gained the emperor's favor and became a favorite of the emperor. It is quite strange. Now, he has even participated in such a major event, causing the Third Prince's attempt to usurp the throne to fail.

At this moment, Zhao Tanyue also said loudly, "Your Majesty, Grand Secretary Li Lan has devoted himself to serving the country. In order to investigate the assassin, he did not hesitate to go to jail. In the end, his hard work has paid off!"

She was also extremely excited. This drama had several twists and turns, and was thrilling and dangerous.

If it weren't for Li Lan's help, perhaps today... the Great Li Dynasty would really have changed hands.

For a moment, everyone in the room wore extremely complex expressions, including fear, resentment, malice, and admiration...

"He used a ruse, risking serious injury to stage this self-inflicted wound, all to gain my trust in Gu Changfeng. What a meticulously planned scheme, full of subtle foreshadowing..."

Mr. Zhu's face was ashen. He gave a self-deprecating laugh and said, "I, Zhu, have roamed the capital for many years and considered myself quite wise. Only today do I realize that I am nothing but a fool, hahaha! Li Lan, I admire you, I admire you!"

"puff!"

He spat out a mouthful of blood, collapsed to the ground, and immediately lost consciousness!

Li Guan was furious and yelled, "Li Lan! Li Lan! You beast!"

How much preparation did he make for this day? How much effort did he put in? But now he has failed!

His assassins are his key to victory or defeat; now that they are all poisoned, how can he maintain control of the situation?

In fact, Lin Ruoxue alone could wipe them all out!

He stared at Li Lan, his hatred reaching its peak, his eyes turning red!

"Li Lan!"

On the altar, having witnessed such a dramatic turn of events, Emperor Xianxian, who had regained his chance at life, finally recovered slowly. He stood up and said, "Good, very good! Zhao Tanyue and Li Lan have rendered great service, and I will reward them handsomely!"

He turned around, looked at Li Guan with murderous intent in his eyes, and said, "Miss Lin, you should kill this villain!"

Just now, the situation seemed hopeless. He saw no hope of becoming an immortal and was powerless to control his own destiny. He was truly despondent. But now the situation has reversed, and this king has regained his former demeanor!

Lin Ruobing looked coldly at Li Guan, also preparing to make a move.

"Wait a minute—"

But at that moment, a clear and ancient voice rang out from afar, spreading throughout the entire Seeking the Dao Mountain, causing the plants and trees to sway gently.

Lin Ruobing's expression changed. She turned around and saw a figure approaching rapidly on the jade steps leading up the mountain, moving with incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, the figure had already arrived in the area.
