Sang Xia officially served in Langzhong of the Ministry of War, joined the Arsenal Division, and was in charge of the military registration, weapons, and the martial arts department of the township examination, as well as the organization and distribution of military affairs.

It's making it easier for her to check the weapon.

She first went to the Ordnance Bureau for a turn, picked up the steel knife that was being made and checked it in her hand, which was completely different from the one sent back from the front.

Pull out a few handfuls from the warehouse, all of them are the best choice.

In other words, there is no problem with the Ordnance Bureau, but this is the biggest problem.

Sang Xia's heart sank, a large number of refined steel knives were replaced, and she really couldn't think in a good direction.

With doubts in his heart, Sang Xia began to walk to the blacksmith shops recorded in various parts of the capital, wearing a unique official uniform that was very eye-catching, and the blacksmith didn't know what was going on, and they were all panicked.

Fortunately, Sang Xia grew a good face, and after telling people that she was just here to understand whether civilian technology can be used in the Ordnance Bureau, everyone was looking forward to her appearance.

It's just that I went all over the capital, and I found nothing.

"Brother An, I'm very uneasy, there are more than 200,000 front-line soldiers, and each of them has 200,000 knives, if they are all replaced and have so many weapons in their hands, I don't believe he will have no plans."

An Pingzhi has not been idle in the past few days, "I called all the people who can use it to check, and I haven't found anything yet, no matter who the weapon falls into, there must be someone in the court who can't get out of it, and it's a person from the military department, you usually pay more attention to see if you find it, the emperor still hasn't moved?" ”

"Nope." Sang Xia was also puzzled, "It's like nothing happened, and the emperor shouldn't be angry about such a big thing." ”

An Pingzhi pondered for a moment, "When will the Ordnance Bureau send weapons to the front line?" ”

"Three days later, I was about to ask Brother An for help."

"You say. What do you want me to do. ”

Sang Xia pursed his lips, his eyes sharp, "Here in the Ordnance Bureau, I will personally watch them load the car, I believe that they will not dare to do anything in the capital, but it is difficult to say as soon as they get out of the capital, I want to ask Brother An to send a trustworthy person to follow me to see where the problem is." ”

An Pingzhi also has this intention. If you don't want to, you should do it. "Don't worry, I'll take care of it."

On the same day, An Pingzhi sent the news to his grandfather, and it was not surprising that the people over there immediately agreed to take the matter over.

Sancha is now in the center of the whirlpool. An Pingzhi didn't dare to be careless, for fear that the people behind him would notice something against Zhiheng, and the number of people who followed him secretly doubled.

Fortunately, at this time, four of the six people sent to Jiangnan came back. These people are impeccable in terms of skill and loyalty, and An Pingzhi is a little relieved.

this day. Gu Rongyuan, the secretary of the Ministry of War, asked Sang Xia to come over, and there were a few other people in the house, Sang Xia was bent on investigating the matter of the steel knife, and he did not have much contact with other people in the Ministry of War. I can only call out a few names, but I don't know each other.

Yan Jin on the left, Ma Jian on the right. Zhu Zhiyu in the military department, and Lu Rui, a member of the outside department.

I gave Shangguan a salute first. arched his hand to Zhu Zhiyu and stood beside him, while Lu Rui saluted her.

Gu Rongyuan coughed lightly, "You are all the pillars of our military department, and this official has always been suspicious of employing people, and suspects are not needed, so I naturally give full trust to you." ”

Although a few people didn't know what Lord Shangshu was going to say, they all bowed their hands and said, "Thank you for your trust." ”

Gu Rongyuan took out two knives and put them on the table, "You guys take a look first." ”

The appearance of the two knives looks exactly the same, but when you hold it in your hand, you can feel the difference, and the other is obviously much lighter.

Sang Xia's mind is full of steel knives every day, and this will react the fastest, "My lord, these two knives are from the Ordnance Bureau?" ”

"Yes." Gu Rongyuan looked at Sang Xia's eyes very meaningfully, "Lord Lu, you come on." ”

Lu Rui responded, "Xiaguan is in charge of the inspection, a few days ago sent away a large number of weapons, the warehouse is empty, Xiaguan took the opportunity to lead people to clean up the warehouse, but I didn't expect to find a few such knives in the innermost place, although it looks like the usual steel knives made by the Ordnance Bureau, but Xiaguan deals with these weapons every day, vaguely feels that something is wrong, and then compares with a new one, there is obviously a difference, Xiaguan is worried that there are such defective products mixed into the weapons sent away a few days ago, and in a hurry, he immediately reported to Lord Shangshu, Xiaguan was confused, crossed over Lord Sang and Shen Langzhong, the head of the treasury, and asked for your forgiveness. ”

This can be regarded as a lawsuit against the next level, but at this time she realized that what she was investigating seemed to be unknown to the rest of the military department, and Sang Xia looked at Gu Shangshu.

"What do you think?"

Except for Sang Xia, all the people present were human spirits, so how could they not know how much this matter had to do.

Just because I knew, I didn't dare to speak lightly.

Gu Rongyuan was not surprised, and directly called his name, "Ma Shilang, you say it first." ”

“…… Be. Ma Jian was very cautious in his words, "I don't know how powerful this defective product is, and how much is the difference between it and the genuine product?" ”

Naturally, it was Lu Rui who asked.

"Back to Lord Ma, the power of this knife is less than one-twelfth of the original, and it won't take long to break."

"How many?"

"At present, there are three hundred and twenty-seven, and the lower officials have only cleared one warehouse, and the lower officials can't say how many there will be."

Ma Jian bowed to Lord Shangshu, "My lord, the lower officials think that this matter should be reported to the emperor immediately, if the soldiers use this kind of weapon, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Gu Rongyuan nodded slightly and looked at Zuo Shilang.

Yan Jin understood, and took the words: "The lower officials also feel that they should be reported immediately, and they must also withdraw and check the top and bottom of the Ordnance Bureau to find out who these weapons are from and whether there are any officials involved." ”

Zhu Zhiyu seconded.

Sang Xia turned a few thoughts in his mind and seconded it.

Gu Rongyuan was not surprised at all by this result, not only the military department, but also other departments, what they used to do was to play Tai Chi, and what they said had no substantive effect.

There are too few officials like Sang Xia who are not afraid of tigers as newborn calves.

"Ma Shilang went to write an excerpt and presented it to the official."

"Yes."

"This matter is not suitable for the time being, you should keep your mouth shut, Sang Langzhong stays, and the others go and get busy, Lord Lu, ask you Shen Langzhong to come and see this official."

"Yes, sir."

Gu Rongyuan asked someone to guard the door, and his voice was lowered, "What do you think of Zhiheng?" ”

Sang Xia was also worried that the partition wall had ears, so he hurriedly stepped forward and said in a low voice, "The lower official wants to ask, have the other adults of the weapons department sent back from the front line before not seen it?" ”

"Naturally, this is also what the emperor meant."

No wonder they didn't think of it when they saw the weapon, Sang Xia continued in a low voice: "Lu Rui is suspicious, the lower official suspects that the lower official may have accidentally exposed his feet and was looked at by someone with a heart, they want to make the military department mess up, or, they want to open up this matter, let us mess up, the people of the DPRK and China are unstable, if the former soldiers know that the weapon they use is a defective product......"
