Chapter 109: Taking a Risk

At three o'clock, the heavy snow stopped at the beginning, and the people of the entire Jinling were still asleep, and they didn't know where to "Peng!" The ground exploded with a bang, and the huge vibration made the whole city of Jinling tremble three times, waking everyone up in an instant. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

"What's going on? What was that? ”

"It seems that a lot of tiles in the courtyard have fallen, go out and have a look!"

Everyone got up and went out to take a look at the thick coat, only to see that at the place of Xu Mountain in the southeast, the fire was soaring into the sky, and the sky above the gray Jinling was bright.

"Drive! Drive! Drive! ”

Immediately after, the streets and alleys were filled with the sound of hurried and loud horses' hooves and the non-stop sound of whipping, just listening to this movement, you knew that something big must have happened in Xu Shan.

A soldier rode to the front of Chang's mansion, jumped off his horse in a hurry, rushed to the gate and patted fiercely: "The lowly Cheng Hu has something important to ask to see General Chang, and the lowly Cheng Hu has something important to ask to see General Chang!" ”

Ji Yao was not awakened by the loud noise, but was woken up by the noise outside, stretched her waist lazily, and walked to the Zhu Gate with a coat in her hand, listening carefully to the movement outside.

"Something big happened to Emperor Xushan's mausoleum! Please also ask General Chang to immediately lead his troops to the imperial tomb! ”

"What happened to the Emperor's Mausoleum?"

"I don't know if it's lowly, according to the person who came to report, it was the emperor's tomb that was blown up!"

"What? Walk! ”

The Emperor's Mausoleum was bombed? I don't know why, Ji Yao feels that this matter is not very simple, now the Jinling factions are distinct, the forces are equal, and these parties on the surface are all anxious about the position of the prince, and I am afraid that the matter of bombing the emperor's tomb was not done by the prince.

If not the prince, who would it be?

Zhu Shang?

Ji Yao can only doubt him, after all, there is no second person except Zhu Shang who is a capable person she knows, and she has no intention of returning to her consciousness at the moment, so she quickly freshened up and prepared to go out to explore the situation.

"Morning, Miss."

Donglan met Ji Yao with the account book, stopped and bowed slowly, Ji Yao nodded and continued to walk out, a white light flashed in his mind, and a question suddenly flashed.

If it was really Zhu Shang's doing, then where did the firecrackers that he used to blow up the emperor's tomb come from? Or rather, how did you get into Jinling by sea? More importantly, what is his intention to blow up the emperor's mausoleum?

"Donglan, is the passion powder still in place?"

Hearing this, Donglan turned around and explained: "It was moved to the warehouse in the eastern suburbs last night, and I plan to send it to a big shop this afternoon." ”

"Eastern suburbs?"

Ji Yao saw that he nodded very affirmatively, and her beautiful brows wrinkled, the Mausoleum of Emperor Xushan was located in the southeast of Jinling, and it was not very far from the warehouse in the eastern suburbs of the Chang family.

"Prepare the horse, I'm going to the eastern suburbs to have a look."

Donglan was a little surprised, she didn't know why Ji Yao cared so much about this passion powder, and she didn't dare to slack off at the moment, so she hurriedly led a fast horse and waited outside the door.

The carriage to the eastern suburbs is naturally not as fast as the eldest brother, King Su and others, if they go on horseback, they may be able to catch up with the eldest brother and King Su, after all, it takes a certain amount of time for them to rush to the barracks.

If Zhu Shangzhen used the power of the Chang family to hide from the world, but did not tell himself, wouldn't the Chang family fall into a passive and dangerous situation?

Sure enough, when she arrived at the warehouse in the eastern suburbs of the Chang family, the emperor's tomb was already a sea of soldiers, and the warehouse was only three miles away from the emperor's tomb.

Soon, the soldiers of the Imperial Tomb will search the warehouse of the Chang family, Ji Yao quickly called the guy who was in charge of the warehouse, hurriedly entered to inquire, and pretended to be relieved and said: "I heard that the Imperial Tomb is on fire, and I am worried that the warehouse will be spread by fire snakes, but fortunately, nothing happened." ”

"Don't worry, Miss, there's nothing wrong with the warehouse, it's just that the bricks and tiles on the roof have fallen a lot, you have to find someone to repair the roof quickly, otherwise if it rains at night, the things in the warehouse will be miserable." The guy followed behind Ji Yao, rubbing his hands and said anxiously.

Hearing this, Ji Yao turned around suddenly, met his gaze and said in an accentuated tone: "Then why don't you hurry up and find someone?" If it rains in a while, I won't have to soak all these things in the water? ”

"Yes, yes, the little ones will go."

Seeing that the figure of the guy flashed and rushed out of the warehouse, Ji Yao hurriedly opened a wooden barrel, observed it carefully, and did not notice anything wrong, and then reached out and stirred it at the deep ~ place of passion powder, but he didn't find anything abnormal.

Perhaps, I think too much?

Ji Yao shook his head, still didn't dare to put his mind at ease, opened the lid of each wooden barrel, observed them one by one, and finally found a little carbon-gray gunpowder on the lid of a wooden barrel in the corner.

She dipped some of it with her fingertips, smelled it slightly, and was sure that it was gunpowder, and her face changed at the moment! "Okay, you Zhu Shang, you actually used passion powder to buy and sell to do this kind of thing, and did things without wiping the farts ~ shares, which caused the Chang family to fall into such a dangerous situation."

After all, the emperor's tomb was bombed, the royal face was gone, it is difficult to ensure that the emperor is furious, this is very close to the emperor's tomb, it is inevitable to be searched, if it is really searched well, maybe it will really find out some clues.

The idea of burning down the warehouse flashed in Ji Yao's mind, it was not impossible for the fire of the imperial tomb to spread and engulf the Chang family's warehouse, but there was still a farmer's house between the warehouse and the emperor's tomb, if you want to make things the most real, you must also burn that farmer's house.

After thinking about it, nodding at this time, the fire must not be fast, in case some officers and soldiers nearby saw it and rushed over to put out the fire, wouldn't it be that there were no three hundred taels of silver here, so that people could take a closer look?

But at this time, it was too late to move out these large number of wooden barrels, and with a "bang", half of the tiles fell from the roof with holes, almost hitting the top of Ji Yao's head.

Ji Yao's eyes were firmly fixed on the tile, and he suddenly thought of a way, turned around and immediately took a bucket of water and poured it between each barrel. When he saw that the passion powder had melted into the water, he hurriedly put the wooden lid back on.

She found a very long golden rake, and carefully stabbed it against the roof, and the tiles, covered with thick snow, fell in a heap, and in one fell through the wooden lid into the barrel.

Ji Yao had to be glad that this wooden barrel was not thick, and the thinnest one was still used, otherwise this passion powder would be really difficult to explain.

"Peng!"

At this moment, there was another huge tremor, and the remaining tiles on the roof fell down at this time, and Ji Yao was suddenly hit by several tiles, and his forehead was suddenly bleeding.

Before she could run out of the house, she saw that the east side of the warehouse seemed to be shaken so badly that there were signs of collapse, and before she could react, the door of the warehouse collapsed at this time, blocking the way out.

At this moment, the whole house was still shaky, and the roof was broken from time to time, Ji Yao was a little dizzy when he was smashed, and he couldn't figure out the direction for a while!
